You are expected to treat this game as a commitment to the other players and myself. As a result, you are expected to stay active. To ensure steady participation, deadlines will be set at daybreak to last exactly (1.5 x the number of living players) days.
When 72 hours have passed without an individual player posting, I will prod that player only if requested to do so, the prodded player will then have 48 hours to respond in the game thread. Failure to pick up prods, respond in thread, or requiring three prods will result in replacement. Please notify me if you will be unable to post for more than 48 hours, I will post a message to that effect in the game.
Votes need to be in bold type. Unvotes are unnecessary. Lynches will require a true majority of voters. Once a person has a majority of votes they are the lynch. Any further actions will not stop the lynch. If no majority has been reached by deadline there will be no lynch. Until the thread is locked, any living player, including the lynchee can continue to post. Once you are dead, however, you may no longer post.
Quote anything you like, excluding ongoing games and moderator PMs, whenever you like. All forms of cryptography are acceptable as well. Do not PM or otherwise contact players outside the thread unless you are explicitly allowed. There are exceptions, however. You may cite when (date, time) a player has posted elsewhere on this site. You may cite information posted by a moderator in another game (including alignment if it is revealed by the mod).
The following are banned in my games: Hydras, screenshots, quoting or faking PMs from the mod, and referencing ongoing games except as stated earlier. Violating my rules will be punished based on the infraction and the intent behind it.
I am the Mod. You will do what I say. I am not infallible. I will make mistakes, do not hesitate to ask if something questionable is indeed a mistake. If you believe I've made a mistake please tell me in whatever way suits you, PM, in the thread, or AIM. I appreciate feedback concerning my moderation, it is an ongoing learning process for me. If I have overlooked something and need to modify the rules to account for it, I will post a notice in the game thread and update this post.

God:
And on the 15th day, God went out to get a drink. Forget the fact that it was the fifteenth of October and it just so happened to be a Wednesday at about three o’ clock, this sounds more impressive. It wasn’t so long ago that you went down to earth and knocked up some virgin chick (you wry stud, you). Your idiot son Jesus then went and got himself crucified and hasn't left the house since. That’s why you went out to get a drink; you're sick of that little twit constantly going on and on about how he doesn't want to come again and how he died for
all
of humanity's sins blah blah
freaking
blah. Fast forward a few years; apparently, you got a little completely stoned that night and made this kid named Friedrich. Now he goes on ranting about how you're dead and all that.
We’ll see who’s dead
. It’s about time to deliver some divine judgment on his blasphemous ass.
Of course, there's a
slight
chance that you're completely and utterly misconstruing his words... Nah, you should beat him around a bit. You may be a bit generous with the energy you put into your punishment these days, you don’t get to do it as much anymore; but hey, that's what the afterlife is for, and who doesn’t like charred infidel corpses anyway? The issue is that your vision isn’t what it used to be and your omniscience isn't in great shape either; you're finding it hard to smite the right people nowadays. The faithful and the stupid, incestuous, blasphemous, atheist infidels are so similar these days. You're sure that PERSON A, PERSON B, and PERSON C are on the straight-and-narrow, though. You're going to have to deal with the rest of them yourself. It seems though, that little Friedrich has caught onto your scheme and is trying to kill you instead. Apparently he got a bunch of scientists to build the Large Hadron Collider. As it turns out, black holes in your spleen are not conducive to good health. Luckily, dang thing only works once, but he could do it any time. So you’re going to have to kill people with lightning... Subtly... Night time it is then. Once you kill Friedrich the rest will take care of itself.
For the people who can’t read: You win when Nietzsche is dead. You have a night kill. You lose if you die. You know that A, B, and C are the leaders of the various faiths. You are unrecruitable.

Nietzsche:
You’re the bastard son of God. On one October 15th, God went out, got stone drunk and knocked up your mom. Yeah, that’s right, you’re Friedrich Nietzsche. You hate God. You told the world that he was dead, and the world was better off for it. Last week you found out that the jerk isn’t dead. Well he’s going to be. You talked to your friends in the Illuminati, and they got some scientists to build the Large Hadron Collider. What most people don’t know is that the LHC can target where it creates the black holes. Inside internal organs, mostly. It only has one shot, but you can do it any time. In the meantime, you’re going to have to be careful. Some guy got struck by lightning last night… Three times. Religion will fall with God dead.
For the people who can’t read: You win when God is dead. You have a one shot any time kill. You lose if you die. You are unrecruitable.
Three roles wrote:
[Judaism/Christian/Muslim]Cult Leader:
[Shalom/Hello father/Bismi-Ilahi], you bring the word of the [Tanakh and the Talmud/Bible/Qur’an] to the people. You are a persuasive man. However, there are heretics about. The [Christians and Muslims/Muslims and Jews/Jews and Christians] are spreading lunacy and madness. Their words are persuasive too. A man converted does not convert again. Once the leaders of their faiths are dead, they can be brought to see the error of their ways. You know that [El/God/Allah] has returned to earth. You know that he has returned as PLAYER A. You must protect him, or everything is lost. You have midnight mass here.
For those people who can’t read: Recruits cannot be recruited. You win when the leaders of the opposing faiths are dead. You lose if you die. You lose if God dies. You are unrecruitable.
Fifteen roles wrote wrote:
Agnostic:
You just don’t know. It’s too hard. You’re an Agnostic. There could be a God, but there might not be. Maybe you should just believe in that teapot. Unnh, well, here’s an idea. If you got God killed, then you could easily decide. Yeah, let’s do that.
For the people who can’t read: You win when God is dead.
Not a role wrote:
Recruitment:
You have seen the light brother! You have converted to the [Jewish/Christian/Islamic] Faith! Your goals have changed. Now you wish only to spread the good word to your brothers. PLAYER A is the leader of your faith, if he dies, so will the faith. You have learned that [El/God/Allah] has returned to the earth. You must protect him at all costs. If he is lost, all is lost. You must kill the leaders of the other faiths and bring the word of the truth to all. You have midnight mass here.
For the people who can’t read: You win when the leaders of the other faiths are dead. You lose if God dies. If PLAYER A dies, the win condition is lost. Cross your fingers for recruitment.

The Fifth "Shellfish are an abomination!" Votecount:
"I also gave them over to statutes that were not good and laws they could not live by; I let them become defiled through their gifts—the sacrifice of every firstborn—that I might fill them with horror so they would know that I am the LORD."

The End of Day One Votecount:
Zzzzz-- Eh? What? Who? Oh, yes, right, well... Breaking News! Yes, it seems that the group has ganged up on a small man who first claimed to be religious, then the leader of a religion. They've started to berate him with salami. He cries out to the heavens for salvation....
....
....
Thunder rumbles.
....
....
Then a particularly well placed salami log smashes his ear, rupturing his ear drum, causing fluids to drain into his system. This leads to shock, his heart begins to beat erratically because of the electrical imbalance, and he dies of a heart attack brought on by salami-induced trauma.
When he died they seemed to suddenly realise he was wearing a robe and a crucifix and carrying the bible the entire time. They hit themselves with salami upside the head.
qwints, the Christian Cult Leader, is dead. The mob is now shuffling about and pushes his corpse into a ravine.

And we're back to our live coverage of the Theists Anonymous conference at
PLACE WITHHELD
. The group seems to have calmed down after the tragedy with the leader of the Christian religion last night. It seems that the Vatican has been destroyed by raiders from the Islamic and Jewish faiths. Most of Ireland has been destroyed in the riots, and evangelical Americans are in uproar. It seems that Christianity has been completely destroyed in any organised form. In other news, the first Jewish President of the United States Aliyah Fein was elected yesterday with a wide margin. It seems that there was some opposition to his election, can you believe those putzes? Anyway, the GDP has soared. It seems that in Saudi Arab-- Krzzzzzzzzzzz... Krzaaczzzzzhhhzzz...
--Someone has been struck by lightning! The bolt took down our feed, and we are now investigating the death...
...It seems that Erratus Apathos has been struck by lightning, and died instantly. No religious items have been found on his person, so it is assumed that he was an Agnostic. The group seems frazzled, let's watch as the situation develops.
