Sample Role

You are an ordinary

Mafioso

Mafioso

when all threats are eliminated.

Confirm your role by PM.

[Lord Gurgi]

A black Rolls Royce rolls up to the bridge, traversing a particularly murky branch of the Hudson. First a young man in a navy blue suit climbs out of the car, dusting off his jacket. Then a large man with a cigar butt sticking out of his mouth, and a tall, insidious man in a black suit, his hair graying at the edges. "What will you do? This can only be the beginning." Said the young man, his ice blue eyes without any emotion, he walked to a rail and he picked up a piece of paper held to the rail by a knife.

The peace is over, your time is up. -Town

"I don' know, Bartram, nothin' like 'dis has happened in a 'undred years. I need to go 'inta hidin'. You n' Tony should be fine. Get da guidelines, da only way ta' fix 'dis is mob justice. Yous guys just make sure that dis gets fixed." He looks at the bridge, pieces of what was once a man are strewn across the bridge, blood stains seeped into the wood. The upper body of First Deputy Tate hangs with his hands manacled around the guard rail his fingers bloody and the nails eroded to nothing. And just visible beneath the surface of the water is Sheriff Mulligan, pale and bloated from the water.

"I don' like 'dis one bit, Don. I don' tink 'dat 'dis will work. But you 'da Don." The young man and the old man return quietly to the car, while the large man drops his cigar butt into the river.

[Lord Gurgi]

You wake up in a room, you and eleven others are sitting in chairs, a few haven't even woken up yet. At the front of the room is a young man in a navy blue suit polishing his pistol. You rush to get up out of the chair but just as you are about to stand up he shoots, just barely missing your ear, the bullet going through the chair you are sitting in and through the wall. "I strongly recommend you stay sitting. You have 24 days to come to a decision, whoever has the majority will be killed. That is all."

Deadline: October 8th, 4:00 PM, PST

Seven Votes to lynch

Five still to confirm. Day One begins now.

[charter]

##vote melikefood

Still kicking myself for killing you in Ramen mafia.

[Stef]

##vote charter

for being the first to post.

[camn]

## Vote Jdodge

For abandoning us in that newbie game.

[Rishi]

## Vote: Nameless

No confirmation. Obvscum. (Probably not confirming to have more time talking with the scumbuddies pre-game.)

[charter]

## Vote: Nameless

No confirmation. Obvscum.

Wouldn't that be obvtown?

[Nameless]

No confirmation. Obvscum.

Wouldn't that be obvtown?

Right. On this note, I think it would be generally beneficial to stick to the terms 'mafia'/'scum' for the informed minority and 'town' for the uninformed majority (regardless of theme) to avoid any confusion. Any objections?

## Vote: Charter

for

clearly

attempting to spread seeds of confusion via variable terminology.

[charter]

It was a poor joke.

[camn]

I'd like to stick with the theme. With Innocent Mafia and Scummy townies.

Die, Townie Scum.

I like the sound of that!

[DraketheFake]

I personally relish the chance to laud others for their anti-town activities for once.

(Probably not confirming to have more time talking with the scumbuddies pre-game.)

Obviously didn't get the message about the mafiosos in this game, and therefore did not likely receive a mafioso role PM.

##Vote: Rishi

Mod Note: Tags Fixed

[stormer]

Randomly

##Vote:Melikefood

food makes me sick

Mod Note: Tags Fixed. Dang it people, use Preview.

[Nameless]

...

Can we at least use the terms 'innocent' and 'scum' for the uninformed majority / informed minority?

[camn]

Of course.

It is obvious that we mafia were innocently going about our business before the dirty scum Townies came in to take over.

[charter]

Yeah, down with those townies!

[Stef]

lmao anyway funny mixing them! Anyway this game the damn townies are going down!

[Kmd4390]

##vote camn

for trying to confuse us all.
That is a mafia tactic...errr....townscum....tactic? I think.

[camn]

Yankees suck.

[Kmd4390]

##confirm vote camn

[charter]

lol, I don't really care for baseball.

[Kmd4390]

My Yankees are my team. Anyone who attacks them attacks me. Sorry if this comes off as rude. Only opinions... Now let's play some mafia.

Camn has already earned my joke vote. How? Anti-Yankee comments contributed of course. Random confusion started it though. Town being bad???
Evil confusing setup. Random vote is staying until something actually happens.

[Kmd4390]

Town being bad???
Evil confusing setup.

btw, this is a joke, not an attack on the game. I joined it because it looked like fun so it wouldn't make sense to attack it.

[DraketheFake]

But the Yankees do, objectively speaking, suck. Not by the public standards, but by standards set within the Yankees' own organization. Cashman and Steinbrenner have repeatedly said that for a team being paid this much money not making the playoffs is unacceptable. With the Yankees poised to do just that - that is, be unacceptable and miss the playoffs - it would be hard to argue with logic

within the organization

and say that they do not, in fact, suck. In fact, you're not even in third place anymore (by a game, admittedly), a fact that conveniently ignores that at 79-70, or 9 games over .500, the Yankees would be no worse than 4.5 games back in two of the other divisions in baseball (AL Central and NL East) and would in fact lead the NL West. To a Baltimore Orioles fan like myself, a 79-70 record certainly does not suck, but again we need to refer back to expectations from within first before we branch outward.

To say that the Yankees suck is therefore necessarily correct, and that necessity comes from the foremost authority on the Yankees, the Yankees. To say anything else - to, say, come to their defense, or simply to say that the Yankees do not suck - is in fact anti-Yankees behavior. If the Yankees say they suck then they suck and nobody else's opinion should be considered in the discussion above their own.

Why do you claim to love the Yankees yet display such anti-Yankees behavior, Kmd?
