Flavour

(mod note: any resemblance between people living or deceased is purely incidental)

Twistedspoon lay on the couch watching television as he reached for another profiterole.
'How can Michael McIntyre be so funny yet so annoying?' he thought to himself. Such a mystery

'SPOON!' He heard a voice cry.
'Oh hey, Papa.' Twistedspoon replied.
'That's Papa Zito to you, spoon!' said PZ, 'Now, I'm here because your mini normal has been in signups for days and You've still yet to do your flavour. I'm not a happy camper at all.'
Twistedspoon had completely forgotten. 'flavour? Mini normal?'

Then it dawned on him.
He had left it until the last minute again.

'You have 10 minutes before I suspend your mini normal' PZ continued.
Twistedspoon looked at his playerlist. Hoppster, Animorpherv... There was no-way he was managing this ragtag group. Seriously. Hoppster? They must be having a laugh.
'Nope.' interjected Twistedspoon
'Because if you don't get it done before Mama zito comes home, I'm giving your mini normal to Hikari.' PZ replied
Twistedspoon spat out his coffee in a comedic fashion
'I'm on it!' He blurted as he dashed out of the living room to his desk.
Changing his desktop background would have to wait. The internet is serious business.

slapping on a Talking heads soundtrack and logging in he thought 'But how am I going to get flavour in 10 minutes?'
Then it dawned on him

'Plagiarism'

Chapter 1: Long Overdue Neruzian Nowhere Iowa Mathia

Burnely. A town with High crime rates, an unskilled workforce and where no-one trust each other. Perfect for the setting of a mafia game

Well that isn't quite true. One Person was rather well respected in the town. His name was Sir T. Spoon

every morning Sir spoon would go for him daily stroll to greetings from the townspeople

'A fine morning to you sir spoon'
'Why thankyou Sir Faraday' Sir Spoon would reply
'G'day spoon'
'Hello to you too Drench'
'Hiya Spoon'
'Hello Nobody Special. oops. Uh, I didn't mean that Tragedy'
'And where are you off to this morrow?'
'Why, I have an appointment with Dr Shotty today' Sir Spoon answered.

Dr shotty slammed down the phone.
'THERE IS NO WAY I'M HAVING A CLIENT CALLED PLAGUE!' he shouted down the receiver
Being a doctor was getting worse each day, for sure, but having to deal with the plague? That was just too far.
'Ah, Sir Spoon' Dr Shotty said as spoon walked in
'Hiya Doc. So what's on the agenda today?' Spoon asked
'Well Spoon, we seem to have a problem.'
Dr Shotty led Sir spoon to the autopsy room
'You see,' Dr Shotty said as he whipped the white sheet from the still body

Fate, VI: Killed pre-game

(mod note: sorry, but I've always wanted to read that )

'If you look here we have a 6 inch incision into the pulmonary vein. What we didn't expect to find was this.'
Dr Shotty pulled a small silver spoon with a crimson tip from his breast pocket.
'You know what this means, Spoon old boy?'
'Fate has yet to learn how to use cutlery?'
'No... well yes... I mean...' Dr Shotty sighed. They didn't pay him enough for this job
'No, Spoon. The town mafia are back. You can see their emblem on the handle of the spoon'
'By Jove, you're right,' Spoon gasped, 'Do not fear Doc Shotty; I shall save the day.'
And with that Sir Spoon rushed from the hospital
'Dr Shotty shook his head again. 'Let him go' he thought.

'Right. Who's next?' Asked Doc Shotty, flicking through his schedule
'Lynchmeplz? Is there a mr.Lync-'

Doc Shotty, Townie: Lynched pre-game

well, He asked for it

Rules

("inspired" by the rulesets of snow bunny, Enigma and Neruz)

1. General Etiquette

a) Mafia is a game. Enjoy yourself! Being respectful will ensure other people also enjoy the game.
b) I don't like personal attacks, so try to keep your tone and insults low. If the other player requests you to stop, cease that type of behavior immediately. I reserve the right to modkill a player for any action should they not listen to a warning. Modkilling turns the alignment of a player into neutral survivor and removes them from the game.
c) You have been given a win condition. You are expected to play towards that win condition.
d) I am human, I can make mistakes. It is my first time modding. Please inform me if I do.
e) If you would like me to notice something in game, please post it in the format Mod: Hi! or I may miss it.
f) Please do not post in the game if you are not a player.
g) I reserve the right to change or update any rules.
h)I will be using Natural Action Resolution to determine action results at night.
i) Any of the roles specifically listed as Normal on The Wiki. In addition, there may be one other role that does not appear on that page but does not use any explicitly non-normal mechanics.

2. Communication

a) Do not discuss this game outside of this thread unless explicitly specified. This would be a serious offence otherwise
b) Do not quote your role PM or any moderator related communications. Paraphrasing is acceptable. Don't push it.
c) If you die, you are permitted one "bah" post with no game related content.
d) If you die, you will be given access to a dead quicktopic. Do not share this link with anyone.
e) Do not use any invisible/hard to read text or cryptography.
f) If you have the ability to edit you posts, don't. I will gladly edit any minor mistakes if you request it.
g) Mod posts will be in

bold purple.

Please do not use this color. Doing so may rsult in me crying a manly tear or a modkill if you are Hoppster (seriously, don't use this colour)
h) Flavor is provided purely for your entertainment purposes. I reserve the right to be lazy and not provide any flavor at all. This probably won't happen though since my flavour is so awesome
i) Do not post if the thread is open if the mod has declared a lynch/opening scene is incoming.

3. Voting

a) Votes must be bolded or in vote tags at the start of a line. I take no responsibility if your vote is not acknowledged if it is camouflaged in a wall of text.
b) Unvotes are nice but are not necessary.
c) Do not abuse voting to intentionally mislead other players. This includes fake hammers and such.
d) Abbreviations are acceptable as long as it is obvious who you are referring to.
e) A lynch occurs when a majority is reached. For an odd number of players, this is (n+1)/2. For an even number of players, this is (n/2)+1.
f) Posting is allowed in twilight, between the time a hammer is delivered and when I waltz in and kill the poor person.
g) Votes posted after the deadline has elapsed will not be counted.
h) If no majority is reached by the deadline, a No Lynch will occur.
i) A no lynch requires 50% of the votes, rounded up
j) Votes by a player being replaced are defaulted to not voiting upon the replacement's arrival.
k) Fake hammers or encrypted votes are illegal
l) Self-votes are frowned upon as they are against your win con

4. Deadlines and Activity

a) Day 1 will be 3 weeks. All subsequent days will have deadlines of 2 weeks.
b) Night 1 will have a deadline of 72 hours and all subsequent nights will have a deadline of 48 hours.
c) You may request a deadline extension, it will require at least half of the majority of living players (minimum 2 players) to agree. Each extension will be no longer than 72 hours.
d) I may grant deadline extensions at my own discretion depending on the game situation, and replacements as such.
e) I reserve the right to shorten deadlines if game activity is minimal.
f) If no night actions are submitted by the time the maximum deadline expires, you will forfeit your action.
g) All night actions follow the Natural Action Resolution system unless otherwise specified.
h) Please aim to post at least every 48 hours. You will receive a prod if you do not post within a 72 hour interval. You have 24 hours to respond to the prod via in-game post (or PM if thread locked) before you are replaced.
i) You will be automatically replaced if you receive 3 prods, or 2 prods in the same game day.
j) Please announce all V/LA's in thread or via PM. I will keep track of all V/LA's in vote counts.

Aaaannndd my own answers to those questions...
1. GMT +10 (Australia)
2. There are differences that make each side unique and good.
3. RVS, I like random voting. Questions are good, too, though, because it's fun and less "intense".
4. Batman, all the way.

[Empking]

Vote: CC

- They are awful questions.

Also: I'm a miller.

[Captain Corporal]

Awful questions they may be, but I still want everyone to answer =p

[Captain Corporal]

I hate millers.
Nice Roleclaim.

[Hoppster]

I hate millers.
Nice Roleclaim.

???


VOTE: Captain Corporal

Because he's scum.

Never played with a Miller D1 claim before. However, Empking is probably town by virtue of Captain Corporal being scum.

I am GMT +1 (British Standard Time).

[TBuG]

These

are

some pretty God-awful questions.

1. CST
2. I don't see either as being more fun; both have their enjoyable moments.
3. RVS as long as people understand that random voting actually ends.
4. Spiderman.

for that fucking stupid second. I'm struggling to see your reasoning, assuming this isn't random, and if that quoted post is your reasoning... jumpy much?

[Captain Corporal]

If that wasn't random, I am confused.
I've never actually played with a Miler before, but from what I read on the wik, they sound pretty annoying.

Also, leave my poor questions alone.

[Empking]

FoS: PBug

- On the condition that CC flips scum.

[Captain Corporal]

xD This is going to be a great game.

[SleepyKrew]

Also...
1. What timezone are you in?
2. Scum or Town, which is more fun?
3. RVS or RQS?
4. Batman or Superman (hint: Batman)?

1. I have no idea...
2. Scum
3. RVS, because most people don't ask proper RQS questions
4. ...
VOTE: CC
You give us godawful questions and then you vote the Miller claim. RVS is over, folks.

[TBuG]

When did CC vote for Empking, dear? Are you reading a different thread?

[Hoppster]

Unvote; Vote: Hoppster

for that fucking stupid second. I'm struggling to see your reasoning, assuming this isn't random, and if that quoted post is your reasoning... jumpy much?

You honestly don't see it?

What exactly is Captain Corporal saying with his post?

Nothing.

Is the claim scummy? Is it a town-tell? Is it neutral?

We don't know, because CC-scum has just made a horribly transparently fluffy post in an attempt to look like he's commenting on the claim.

"Nice Roleclaim" - what does that even mean?!


P-Edit:

VOTE: CC
You give us godawful questions and then you vote the Miller claim. RVS is over, folks.

He didn't vote the Miller claim.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: SleepyKrew

CC

could

be idiotic town (but is likely scum).

SK is definitely over-enthusiastic scum either distancing or being opportunistic (depending on CC-alignment - SleepyKrew is scum both ways).

[SleepyKrew]

Still don't like his response though.

[Empking]

I don't think scum would make a mistake like SK did.

[Captain Corporal]

Time to re-read, Sleepy. I'm voting Hoppster, not Empking >_>

I have bad questions? What sort of case is that? None! None at all.

P-EDIT: Sorry if my claim post was unclear.
Br "I hate millers", I mean they add an annoying aspect to the game, of "how do we know if he's scum fkeclaiming or really town".
By "nice roleclaim", I mean "good job on claiming that straight-up".

I just didn't find it to be suitable so soon, but I like your response. Don't particularly agree with it, but I like your reasoning.
UNVOTE: Hoppster

As far as the claim itself - I'm a bit frustrated by it happening right off the bat. Especially given that Empking's initial vote for CC seemed semirandom, and between that and the FoS on me, it seemed to have solidified. Empking, why

did

you claim so fast?
