Antarctica, 1982. Deep below the Arctic ice, a group of scientists have found an alien spacecraft that has been there for perhaps 100,000 years. Not far from where the craft landed, they find the remains of the occupant. It's cut out of the ice and taken back to their camp but as the ice melts, the creature reanimates and not only begins to attack them but manages to infect them, with team members devolving into the alien creature... The men find themselves battling a parasitic alien organism capable of perfectly imitating its victims. They soon discover that this task will be harder than they thought, as they don't know which members of the team have already been assimilated and their paranoia threatens to tear them apart.
Rules:
There shall be seventeen (17) players. Special Roles will be handed out after the last person signs up.
The game will then proceed to a Night deadline.
The game is divided into two periods - night and day. For practical reasons these two periods take place at the same time, from one update till the next.
Each day, all players gather and decide to lynch one of the players - the person they think is most likely to be infected. Each night, the aliens decide who to kill. In each 24 hour period, the group will lynch, and the aliens will hunt. The scientists can try to lynch multiple people by creating a glorious, Lemeard-approved, TIE, and the aliens can also decide not to hunt anyone at all at night.
Winning:
The aliens and hybrid win if they manage to reach parity with the villagers.(Hybrid does count for parity)
The scientists win if they manage to kill all the aliens.(Hybrid NOT counting)
Possible Player Roles:
Scientist(villager): The simplest role, a scientist knows nothing for sure, but can use the power of his vote to help lynch others.
DNA expert(Seer): Can scan one person each night to check to see whether he is infected, hybrid, or human.
Infected(Werewolf): A former scientist who has been infected by the monster. Each night, the monsters hunt a player.
Hybrid(Warlock): An alien sympathizer, as his father was one, each night, he can block any other player from using a special role. If he chooses to block the DNA expert or the armed scientist, they cannot scan / protect that night. He does not know the identity of the aliens/infected at the start. His powers will not block the aliens from hunting (unless he blocks the last one standing), in case he accidentally targets one of them. - The hybrid DOES count for parity, but cannot win alone.
Armed Scientist(Guardian Angel): The only scientist to have brought a gun with him. Each night, the guardian angel can choose to protect someone from an alien attack. He cannot protect the same person two nights in a row and he cannot protect himself.
Possible Role Set-ups: These are the possible ways roles will be distributed. I will randomly select one set-up; each possibility has an equal chance of being chosen. Once the set-up is determined, it will stay that way throughout the entire game.

Roleplaying:
For the purposes of this game, players are very strongly encouraged to role-play according to the theme. Don't forget the people around you are your former co-workers you've known for years. Those are your rivals, friends, or love interests. Feel free to choose backstories for your characters at start or at any point in the game. The game is based on a movie but we're not staying 100% true to it, the basic idea is well-known and you don't have to follow anything that was in the movie. I've forgotten most of it anyway.
