Modnote: Seraphim, Pine, Gaoth (again), Parabollocks, Powerrox93, and Bowser are all on V/LA or have limited access. Unfortunately, I am in the same boat. Family emergency. For this reason, I am going to extend night a couple days (I know, I'm sorry) but with the mod and literally a third of the players on V/La, there is no reason to start the game up just so it can veg out again. I am giving this game a 5 day night tonight, and after that I am going to be super strict with prods and replacing because this game has been terrible activity wise. Still love you guys though. Sorry again, but I don't want this game to veg out or die while I am away. Flip on its way.

Night 1 starts now. Deadline is in (expired on 2011-07-12 15:30:00)

As the sun met the horizon, the group of bands came to a decision. They quickly scrounged up wires and hung a noose from the rafters. They placed a ladder under the noose and corralled EvilPacman18 up its steps. He clumsily climbed the ladder, shaking the whole way up. Eleven people chanted for him to stick his head through the noose. Tears fell from his eyes down to the floor many feet below him. He begged for a second chance; pleaded for more time to prove his innocence. Eventually though, he gave up. He stuck his head through the noose. He blocked out the noises and gestures of those who betrayed him and instead focused on the beautiful view he had from the ladder. The azure sky hugged the lake in the distance. It made him feel unusually thirsty. In fact, he had felt rather thirsty all day. His mind drifted off, and eventually he became lost in his own thoughts. He began to sing:

Swans, swans, swans sung songs
Till the morning dawned on us
And the sun smudged peach moon
Still hung loose

Bones, bones, bones grown homes
With the sparrows in the trees
We leave them for
They love the marrow

I'm thankful for my life
I'm thankful for my life

-Islands: Swans (Life After Death)

Someone kicked the ladder out from under him, and before he realized his imminent demise, it had already occurred.

EvilPacman18,

Islands (Vanilla Townie)

, died a serene death (lynched) Day 1.

[Slaxx]

The sun peered over the horizon and woke up all the bands. A few of them woke up earlier and decided to fish at the lake. One of them looked at the other excitedly and grinned.

"I got one...I got one...A big one".

He began to reel it to shore. Steadily and slowly. He continued to reel for a few minutes, beads of sweat forming on his brow. Finally he yanked it out from under the viel of the water. Staring back at them was Furry's head. They screamed and immediately notified the rest of the group. Immediately the others began digging around the lake and fishing to find the remainder of his body. By dawn, they had found Furry's body, barely covered under a thin layer of dirt. They found a small gun and walkie talkie on him. He had been protecting those who he felt worthy. They checked his pockets for any clue of his alignment and found a small note with lyrics scribbled on it.

Take a melody
Simple as can be
Give it some words and
sweet harmony

Raise your voices
all day long now
love grows strong now
Sing a melody of love
Of love

-Eight Hardcore Beats: Furries in a Blender

Everyone had joined in the search that morning, except for Pine. Everyone wondered where the chipper young man wondered off to. They searched around the lake for him, but to no avail. Someone ran back to the trailer he was housed and found him lying dead on the floor, a bullet through his head. Well, 3 bullets. Someone was very mad. A tune emenated from the speaker system in his bedroom. The group ventured to the source, where they saw Pine's bedroom covered in blood and awry. Among the rubble they found many lottery tickets and scraps of paper with the the others' names on them. They listened carefully to the lyrics playing on the stereo:

Got a barrel by the face should the order release
Should the bullet in your pocket turn away and retreat
See the terror in the eye of a bloodshot child
Only bubble in his belly and the promise of lies
Operation, liberation, tell me, you can decide

Talk don't talk if you've nothing to say
Walk don't walk if your feet don't know the way

And requiem for a dying song
with a shimmy and the shank from a futile war
And the sun that lights the day
breaks the darkness and the powers of another great shame

-Requiem for a Dying Song: Flogging Molly

Furry,

Furries in a Blender (Bodyguard)

, drowned and decapitated (killed) Night 1.
Pine,

Flogging Molly (Mafia 1-Shot Bookie)

, shot without mercy (killed) Night 1

With 17 alive, it takes 9 to lynch and 9 to no lynch. Deadline is in (expired on 2011-07-27 16:52:00)

[Nikanor]

Pine was scum? O.o

Vote: Powerrox93.

[Nikanor]

Also

Slaxx, what is a bookie?

[Regfan]

Yeah, Pinescum was something I realized during the night phase, going to out the rest of my reads later, need to get some coffee in me first. A bookie means they have the ability to guess who was lynched, if said person gets lynched they get an extra nightkill.

[Cogito Ergo Sum]

Vote: Parabollocks

[Slaxx]

A bookie is someone who guesses the next day's lynch. If they guess correctly, mafia gets an extra night kill.

[Nikanor]

I wonder if the bookie's ability would still have gone through?
Slaxx, can you answer that?

[Slaxx]

If Pine used it, it is still in effect.

[Juls]

If Pine was going to pick he would probably pick Nintendo or Parabollocks.

[Juls]

Also we may be dealing with 2 scum teams since Furry was "drowned AND decapitated"

[Nikanor]

I doubt he'd pick Nintendo.
Powerrox lynch, anyone?

P-Edit: I doubt it, since Pine just flipped red and not "Pop Mafia" or whatever.

[Juls]

Thirdly, Regfan, are you saying you killed Pine?

[Juls]

Could be scum + SK + Vig?

[nintendoaddict1]

Also we may be dealing with 2 scum teams since Furry was "drowned AND decapitated"

Oh, good point. I didn't really notice that when I read the scene.

P.Edit: If there is another faction, they could be another color.

P.Edit #2: Oh yeah...

[Nikanor]

OH.
What if Furry guarded the same person that Pine shot, and then an SK shot Furry? That would make a lot of sense, especially if Pine wanted to save his bookie and scum can't kill and action in the same night.
Who would Furry have guarded, though?

[Cogito Ergo Sum]

I think Furry should've no-actioned. Not sure if he did though. Furry may simply have been targetted by 2 kills.

Drowned could work as SK.

Bookie still being in effect is not what I expected and bookieing Parabollocks wouldn't've been a bad move.

Thus,

Unvote, vote: Gaoth

.

[Juls]

Hmmmm that is pretty weird lol. You may be over thinking it. It probably just meant that two of (SK/Scum/Vig) targetted her and one of (SK/Vig) targetted Pine. That is more likely and chasing down "who would Furry have protected" is not a good way to scum hunt because it is probably not true.
