Topic: Mafia: Day One

[Pryopizm]

It was a dark and stormy morning.  The tumultuous weather was a harbinger of the days ahead.  After being rocked with violence, the poor townspeople of Louieville had decided enough is enough.  Today was the first day of a new campaign that completely eschewed the trial process.  It was called "Swift Justice."  The townspeople would vote for whom they believed were the evil mafiosos from the notroious Fanboys or the flamboyantly evil Pietriots.

Check your PGC PMs.  If you have a role, then you'll have been PM'd.  I would appreciate confirmation.  

If you did not receive a PM, you are a townie (it's not that you're not special to me, it's that I have to go to sleep).

I recommend not voting until you've checked your PMs.    Day One will continue on until I get confirmation from all the roles.  

Good luck and have fun.

Are we supposed to role play? =P

Pale steps out of the local bar, takes a deep breath, and begins his walk home.  Every few steps he looks over his shoulder and wonders "Why the hell do I live here."  Suddenly his toe catches the curb and he does a face plant in the snow.

er something...

The sharp cold kept Aurion from wandering outdoors until the mid-afternoon.  He stumbled out, still sleepy-eyed, and made his way down his driveway to fetch his newspaper.  Halfway there, he suddenly stops......

"I think pants would have been a good idea..."

After being ubruptly awoken by the kids running into the bedroom yelling "Daddy, Daddy, wake up Mommy made breakfast." I sat up quickly, still a little groggy from the night before, looking around the room confused.

Thats when I remembered that not only was I not married, but I don't have any kids and this isn't even my house!!!

 I was walking pass the bar, where I noticed that pale was walking out of the bar. I waved to him, he paused for a sec.. gave me a slight wave and went on.
I have been wondering these pass few days of the going on's in town, the other folks in town have been stirred up lately, I can't blame them with the way things are run.
*a cold wind starts blowing* I decided to step in the bar for a drink, the local yahoo's were there, I see a coke machine, put 50cents in, but instead I get a pepsi*Noooooooooooooooooooooooo*

"I will find the toe!" I yelled, frantically searching on my hands and knees.

[Pale]

"Is he talking about my toe?"  Pale figures he better just walk away quickly and does so.  As he approaches his building he quickly scurries in, opens his apartment door, and closes it abruptly behind him.  *snick* *click* *snap* *shook* He hits all of his dead bolts and heads for the couch.

[KnowsNothing]

Actually, I'm talking about mother's toe.  The cat took it again.

[Pale]

Pale makes a crack in his blinds and notices that KN is still blathering on about someone's toe.  Safely inside he laughs to himself and goes back to watching some cartoons.

With exactly 21 players, if the townies execute someone random on a whim, they actually have a 2/3 chance of only killing one of their own. RUH ROH

Excerpts from the journal made by IceCold; January 1, YR1

The sky lit up in a flash of lightning, followed by the inevitable rumble of violent thunder overhead. As the landscape came to life again, I noticed in the distance, for a fleeting moment, the flashing silhouette of a running person. Then, as suddenly as it came, it was gone. In the midst of the elongated clap of thunder that ensued, I thought I heard something. I dismissed my unnerving thoughts, and told myself off for letting my fear get the most of me. But then I heard it again! It was a gunshot, sure as the wind that blew in my face. I did some calculations, and I deduced that if 2+2=5, and log(5) is the inverse root of infinity, then something was definitely wrong about this scenario. My curiosity tugged at me and demanded that I investigate. However, my common sense got the better of me, and I ran home as fast as my weary feet could take me. These are troubling times indeed..

This is the first paragraph of my novel, diary. Do you like it?

TVman awakes in his bed and turns on the television. Nothing was on, so he decides to go outside in his bule puma running shorts. He begins jogging on the soggy streets of the shell that was once his home town. The heavy trafic forces him on to the sidewalk. He doesn't have school for another week, so he decides to enjoy his time off on the internet. . .until the doorbell rings. . .

"Damn tax collectors."

I'm not sure exactly how we're supposed to discuss who to kill someone (what with all the third-person dialogue and whatnot).

If the townsfolk don't have a clue who's who (as is usually the case in the early days of the game) can we collectively decide not to vote off someone, or is the rule someone must be voted off every day?

EDIT:  I UNVOTE FOR MARIO (VOTE CHANGE).

[Bill Aurion]

Someone must be voted off everyday...And we can't really vote for someone until the mob boss has killed someone, which he hasn't yet...

[vudu]

But we won't find out who the mob boss kills until day two, right?  So does that mean there's no voting off on day one?

[MysticGohan24]

We'll that gives ample time... now doesn't it?

No, no, there are two mafia groups: The Fanboys and The Pietriots...The Fanboys kill on every odd day (starting with today) while The Pietriots kill on even days (starting with tomorrow)...

[ShyGuy]

Looking down from the highrise balcony, ShyGuy takes a sip of ginger ale from his private stash and studies the activity on the cold streets below. As he watches the good people of Louieville scurrying about in the snow, he thinks to himself. "As long as I'm writing my own reality here, I might as well be rich." Smiling and shaking his head, he flips open his phone and asks his driver to bring the car around front.

I realize that.  However, we won't find out the results of today's killing until tomorrow, correct?  So do townsfolk vote off someone today (with results tomorrow) or do we wait to vote tomorrow (with results on Wednesday)?

Gohan started walking back home, Suddenly "hear's something" a cat scrammbled through the trash cans in the alley. "think's to himself, must be that cat Knowsnothing is talking about"
I turned around to another corner, I hear two guys mumbling in the alleyway. I walked by, not paying any attention to their mumblings.

[S-U-P-E-R]

Maybe we should start furiously AIMing and messaging each other!!1/

[KnowsNothing]

Real mobsters use IRC.

[Pryopizm]

The person the townies choose to kill (so far MARIO is leading with a single vote) is killed after polls close.  As I stated above, polls for Day 1 will only close after I receive my confirmations.  Not much to worry about on that front, as I've gotten a good portion.

[MysticGohan24]

lol poor Mario, he better come and defend himself from getting the "Axe"

[Pale]

I think we should keep all conversations within the forum myself, using PMs as needed, or if people want to get really creative, they could post conversations with each other at a local cafe or something right in here....
