Mind Screw Mafia V (Abandoned by players, mods, everyone)

[Tarhalindur]

Mind Screw Mafia 5

One day, I woke up and the world had changed.

It wasn't visible if you looked down. The grass was still green, the forest was still there, the familiar buildings were still standing. At least I think they were familiar. It's been so long...

But the sky? The sky wasn't like anything I had ever seen before. It was filled by transparent ribbons of color, gold and orange and violet and blue. Streamers in the sky, weaving in chaotic patterns of beauty. And the two suns (red and yellow-orange) and the three moons...

It was eerily beautiful. Also deeply unsettling.

At some level, I knew that something was wrong. That this place was supposed to be a happy place, and now suddenly... wasn't. That I was in danger.

But I could not possibly understand the true nature of the threat...

Mind Screw Mafia 5 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

1) What the fuck is going on here?

That's a very good question, isn't it?

2) What do you mean, you can't tell me any of the other rules?

What could I possibly mean, I wonder, I wonder?

3) So should I assume that there aren't any rules at all?

Not necessarily. I recommend you look up a little piece of philosophy called Pascal's Wager. It might be somewhat relevant to this situation. Also, check your history again.

4) But you're not God!

And how do you know that, again? *laughs*

5) Will you at least tell us how many votes it is to lynch?

HAHAHAHAHA no.

6) When is our deadline?

Once again, I would like to remind you that I cannot tell you any of the other rules. Don't worry, only a bastard Mod would let a deadline sneak up on you without any warning... while requiring a full majority for a lynch... and having a role in the game that becomes the sole winner should you no lynch...

... hmm, maybe you should lynch really, really quickly.

7) I saw your ruleset in Blaz Blue: Calamity Trigger Mafia. Can I assume that your rules here are similar?

You might think that. I couldn't possibly comment. *cackles evilly*

8) What the heck is this "Rules Infraction" I see added onto my post?

It might be an indicator that you screwed up and broke the rules somehow. It might be the result of a game mechanic. It might, in fact, be the same mechanic that appeared in both previous Mind Screw Mafia games.

Or, it might be that your Mod is a bastard Mod and is just placing "Rules Infraction" at the end of random posts.

You decide!

10) Why are you not allowed to tell us any of the other rules?

I am not at liberty to reply to that question, either.

11) Does your inability to answer that question have anything to do with the card game Mao?

Now, now, that would be telling!

12) So, I have a night action. When should I send it in to you?

By the end of the night, of course.

13) What happens to players caught in a temporal paradox?

Bad things, that's what.

14) It's night, but the thread's open. Can I post?

I don't know, can you?

15) Are you sure you can't tell me the rules?

Nipah~

"The humans, I think, knew that they were doomed. But where another race would surrender to despair, the humans fought back with even greater strength. They made the Minbari fight for every inch of space. In my life I have never seen anything like it. They would weep, they would pray, they would say goodbye to their loved ones, and then throw themselves without fear or hesitation at the very face of death itself, never surrendering. No one who saw them fighting against the inevitable could not help but be moved to tears by their courage, their stubborn nobility. When they ran out of ships, they used guns. When they ran out of guns they used knives and sticks and bare hands. They were... magnificent. I only hope that when it is my time I may die with half as much dignity as I saw in their eyes at the end. They did this for two years. They never ran out of courage. But in the end, they ran out of time."

It is now the Confirmation Stage. Role PMs are going out. Please confirm in the manner indicated in your role PM. The game will begin once sufficient players have confirmed.

[Kinetic]

NO ONE POST!

I have an ability that I HAVE TO USE within the first 7 pages. IF YOU SPAM I will use it on you and you will regret it.

Give me some time to decide how to use it.

[Fate]

Were allowed to post now?

Break the rules; They're invisible? 0.o

[Screaming Death Clan]

FATE STOP POSTING UNDER YOUR SOLO ACCOUNT, TOOL

[Kinetic]

I need the following players to state ONLY the following information in their next post. Please limit posting while they give me this information.


2) RayFrost

Are you a doctor? Yes or No only please.

4) Vi

African or European Swallow?

6) Seraphim

Is your favorite color Purple?

12) Party Crashers

Is your favorite nut a walnut?

14) Plum

Is your sister hot?

22) malthusis

Why the hell did you kill me first in MTG Parallel Worlds mafia. Do you know how much I prepared for that game. I hate you. If I die again day 1 its fucking malt again and someone needs to kill him right back.

Some of these questions are simply obscuring from the real questions I need answered. If my question doesn't make sense to you please answer it anyway like it does, I'll explain later.

[Seraphim]

Hey kids! Really looking forward to this game, especially after the trainwreck of MSIV(sorry, Tar). This one promises to be a lot better though.

And the craziness is underway!

6) Seraphim

Is your favorite color Purple?

Yes.

[Vi]

It depends on with what it is laden.

Seraphim 9 is the most fake post I have read in a few months.

[Seraphim]

I haven't had my tea yet.

[Kinetic]

Also:

Vote: Arthas

FOS: Arthas

For testing purposes.

[Seraphim]

Goddamn, no Mind Screw is complete without someone doing random shit for no discernible reason to use some ability.

Who was it that voted and unvoted and then FoS'd and then unFoS'd the entire playerlist?

Also: HASTUR HASTUR HASTUR!

[Nocmen]

Awesome, time for me to accidentally win the game for town again.

Vi, why do you think of it as so fake? What about with regards to the other posts Seraphim has here?

[Plum]

Kinetic: Which sister? Both Pom and our younger sister are certainly quite pretty; it would be a violation of my code of honor as a big sister to outright describe any sister who is still a minor as hot, but to one who is still a minor him- or herself either might well be considered attractive enough to qualify as hot.

[Vi]

Also, a message for Kinetic.
If you play like qwints did in the early days of Mind Screw 3, I shan't be inclined to forgive you.

Goddamn, no Mind Screw is complete without someone doing random shit for no discernible reason to use some ability.

Or more likely, for no discernible reason for the sheer joy of being obnoxious. Let it end now.

Nocmen, while Seraphim's posts are usually rather tragic to read, at least he has since provided something approaching an excuse for his behavior. If some daykilling role would silence him I would be quite grateful.

[Kinetic]

I just need the last responses and a vote count and I will be able to reveal everything Vi, don't worry. I don't think I've broken the game, but I think Tar made a mistake giving me this role.

[Seraphim]

Damn, Vi, why so hurtful? This hurts, right here. In my heart.

[Plum]

Dammit. I forgot something .

[Vi]

Damn, Vi, why so hurtful? This hurts, right here. In my heart.

[Fame and Fortune]

i wonder when tar is going to get tired of the old fos=vote shtick. if that rule is not in this game i will be surprised.
and hi everyone
