Sherlock Holmes Mafia (The Game's Afoot!)

[bv310]

Being a Reprint from the Reminiscences of John H. Watson, MD, Late of the Army Medical Department

A foggy night in London. Suddenly, a shot rings out and a police officer falls to the ground, dead. This is the third in as many days, and the police finally understand: this is the work of a mastermind. Moriarty lives, and rumour has it that he's actually descended among the rabble of London's criminal underground, and this is too much of an opportunity for the great Sherlock Holmes to pass up. But will he succeed, or will this case be the one that finally breaks him?

Welcome to Sherlock Holmes Mafia.

Rules (Taken and modified from Stef):

The rules for this game are a modified version of the BaM rules.

1.) Votes must be bolded and at the start of a line. Fail to respect this rule and your vote might not be counted.
2.) Unvoting is nice, but not necessary.
3.) Once a majority is reached, that person is lynched.
4.) If there is no majority at deadline, there will be no lynch for that day. For a no lynch, 50% of those alive need to vote for such.
5.) Day 1 will have a semi-flexible deadline of 12 days. All following days will have a deadline of 9 days.
6.) Nights will have 72 hours maximum. Any night actions not submitted will simply not happen – the thread should be open 48 hours following a deadline lynch.
7.) Do not talk about this game outside the thread unless your role allows you to.
8.) When you die, you are dead. Stay that way.
9.) Do not edit posts. Do not use invisible text. Do not use small text.
10.) Do not quote any communication from the mod (that includes PMs) in the game thread.
11.) If you are going to be gone for an extended period of time, please let me know.
12.) If you do not post for 72 hours you will be prodded. If you do not post for 24 hours after your prod you will be replaced and added to my personal blacklist and the BaM blacklist unless there's a really good reason for your disappearance.
13.) If you notice mistakes aside from the vote count, PM me. Bold notification about vote count issues in the thread.
14.) Play to win.
15.) Play with the spirit of the game in mind.
15.a.) This means ASK before you do something you think I might question. Questions are good. Modkills are bad.
16.) Have fun. Remember that everyone playing are actually real people and treat them as such. Fail to treat the other players with respect and you might end up modkilled and blacklisted.
17.) Do not attempt to impersonate either me or any other player in the game.

Various shades of Light-ish blue

are my colour. Don’t use them.
18.) Night actions are determined using Natural Action Resolution

- Additional -

1.) This game cannot be broken by mass flavor claim.
2.) This game may contain custom roles.
3.) Be active and if you have to replace out be a dear and find your own replacement. Only ask me to do so if you cannot for "X" reason.
4.) I am not afraid to modkill. Don't test me.

Anyway, now that I finally have all the roles out, you may confirm now.

[Packbat]

Packbat here, role confirmed.

[animorpherv1]

Hello. I'm alive.

Unless I'm a zombie.

[Quaroath]

I r here

[werewolf555]

I am here and ready, good sir!

[sorasgoof]

/confirmarino

[ThAdmiral]

Confirm.

[Riceballtail]

[GreyICE]

Vote: werewolf555

< will repeat as necessary until desired result is achieved.

[CryMeARiver]

/confirmalicous! Finally ! Haven't been in a game for like 2 weeks haha

[Wraith]

/confirm

When did this unlock? It wasn't open when I left last night.

[CryMeARiver]

Is that 10? If so

Vote: Wraith

for explaining his late pre/in. Only maf does that senor.

@Mod: What does that mean "Morality lives?"

[Wraith]

We're still waiting on one or two I believe CMAR.

[bv310]

Okay, so that's 11/12 confirmed. Votes from this post onwards count.

@CMAR, that's Moriarty, not Morality. Moriarty is the main criminal in the later Holmes stories.


Also, with each votecount, I'm going to try and include a link to a different Sherlock Holmes story. For the start of the game, I think I'll go with
A Study In Scarlet: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/244

[CryMeARiver]

Vote: Wraith

I am a miller. Though not necessarily just a miller. The ongoing discussion may ensue. If you'd like a name claim, let me know.

[CryMeARiver]

Oh, and @Mod: Thanks for the clear up

[sorasgoof]

I'm always partial to believing early Miller claims, due to a game where I was a Town Miller, though it is very true that a claimed Miller deserves a close eye placed upon them. However, +town points for claiming this early in the game. It saves investigative roles (mainly the Cop, really, if there is one) from...investigating.

[CryMeARiver]

That's the plan soras haha
Also, Mod says 11 have claimed. FoS whoever claimed in PM as I only count 10.

[bv310]

Apparently, I can't count. 10 have confirmed, not 11.

[CryMeARiver]

We'll be V/LA this weekend.

Found this in one of GummyBear's posts

Also, JtJ has yet to post since "/in"ing for this game on MS so they both check out in not confirming.

[GreyICE]

Okay, so that's 11/12 confirmed. Votes from this post onwards count.

Oh I see.

Vote: werewolf555

Policy lynch go.

[Packbat]

Apparently, I can't count. 10 have confirmed, not 11.

Do votes still count?

[GreyICE]

I can vote for him a third time.

I'm reasonably sad that he isn't lynched yet
