Okay. Thirteen players, multiball (two competing Mafia teams).

There are two competing Mafias. Each Mafia team consists of a Roleblocker and a Detective. Either member of a Mafia team can perform the Night Kill or use their special action, but not both in the same night.

Town has a Detective, a Doctor, a Roleblocker, and an Innocent Child.

Player List:
Your Star
SmokeAndMirrors
Wake
DiAnna
X Factor
Paschendale
The Mark
roughdraft274
VanceMack
Proud South Korean
MKULTRABOY
Thorgasm
Missypea

Sending out role PMs now. Game will commence when all players have read their role PMs and confirmed their role by replying to me via PM.

edit: Role PMs have been sent. 13/13 players confirmed.

A storm is coming. A few short days after the Basement's initial Mafia infestation, rumors have spread that two new crime families-- the sinister and sadistic Mafia A and Mafia B-- are trying to gain control of the Basement after the initial stunning success of their scouting party. Concerned citizens are forming lynch mobs just in case, and violence has been pandemic.

This morning, beloved former Dungeon Master danarhea has been found lying in a pool of his own blood. Forensic investigators were brought in to examine the crime scene for the tell-tale signs of Italian cuisine-- but after attempting to smell the body, three of the five investigators died of shock, one committed suicide, and the final poor soul has been confined to an institution where they use tranquilizers to keep him from screaming... in Enochian.

Later chemical analysis of fluids on the crime scene have determined that the pool of blood that danarhea was found in contained traces of marinara sauce. Forty percent of the lab equipment used to make that analysis has also henceforth ceased to function.

It is the morning of Day 1. With 13 surviving players, it takes seven votes to make a lynch.

Day 1 Surviving Players (13):
Your Star
SmokeAndMirrors
Wake
DiAnna

*Looks up to the clouds*

I will exact your revenge Danarhea!!! I will get those bastards!

*Shakes fist angrily*

Ok, so are we gonna play seriously this time or is everyone gonna gang tackle Wake all over again?

You are assuming that we can't do both. This raises the question, why would you present this false dichotomy?

Maybe you and Wake are Mafia and you are protecting him?

Hmmmm....

I don't think I would have brought up voting him off if I was his mafia mate...

Though I honestly wouldn't mind if everyone did as last time and voted him off. Makes the game easier to play without having to listen to him, lol.
 
*facepalm*

Boys... can we seriously focus on the scum who took our Danarhea from us? I'm even starting to miss the stench that followed him around everywhere... like our own lovable Pig Pen.

I've been searching for fingerprints for the last hour, haven't found nothing yet...

No, actually, we're far better off lynching people who derail our legitimate attempts to fish out the actual bad guys. With four mafiosos to track down, I'm finding you rather suspicious right now. An early gambit to dispose of a townie?

Also, isn't the Innocent Child's identity supposed to be revealed?

you're looking way too far into this. On one side I was accused of being mafia because I was trying to protect wake, now I'm mafia because I was trying to get him killed?

I was wondering the same thing about Innocent Child too, but I looked into it and apparently it is only revealed (in some versions) when the person want's it revealed.
 
I've also read that the innocent child is lynchproof, meaning that the town can't vote to kill that person. True?

Some games, maybe. In this one, there's nothing stopping you from lynching the Innocent Child... but there's only four people who'd want to.
 
*gasp!* Dana's dead? From... marinara poisoning? Okay, who in here is Italian... :mrgreen: This is the part that confuses me. How are we supposed to look for clues?

The game is about deception. Four people here are mafiosos. They know it. They have to convince us that they aren't, while guiding us to lynch other townies and not themselves. So, we have to figure out who is lying.

It's very difficult to figure out anything until the first lynch. But we want to draw out the first lynch, and not just kill someone for the hell of it. The more discussion that takes place now, the more we'll have to go on to try to figure out who was intentionally trying to kill a townie today. Assuming that we lynch a townie, which is highly probable.

So, in the interest of getting the ball rolling...

I realize that four of you are going to lie but I'd like to know what everyone was doing last night when poor danarhea was murdered.

I had a quiet night, watched some tv and went to bed early to read my book. What about you?
 
I was in the Basement, cleaning up the mess left by certain folks and irritating the pee out of certain folks. I'm sure they will vouch for the fact that I caused much public misery and animosity. Then I played Dragon Age 2 until bedtime, so I could have the satisfaction of killing stuff.

Nobody seems to want to say much. They are all afraid to talk. :(
 
I played some Mass Effect 3, and then fell asleep deciding if I should work on some schoolwork.

I live such an exciting life.
 
Well, I'm not gonna be casting any votes until everyone who's playing squeaks up. Silence will NOT be a safe haven, lol!

Yeah. Just replace Mass Effect 3 with reading/writing. What's funny is that most of my course work involves reading and writing, which I do shitloads of on my own time. But for some reason if it's something I HAVE to do, I put it off.

I'm the most boring 20-something I know.

That is me all over! Procrastination is a weird beast.
 
Worked kinda late, went home and watched House on the Dvr. Did y'all know that this is the last season. :(

Yes, thank god. I hate that series! Are you by chance Italian? Do you have marinara sauce in your kitchen? :mrgreen:

You do realize that no player in this game actually killed Danarhea, right? And no one is really likely to be role playing during this game... So I'm not sure what this line will accomplish.
 
Just got back from watching 'The Grey'. So we have started?
