there is only one hell:
the one we live in now

The Island of Kirane is fairly unexceptional. It is mostly flat but its soil is too rough for good farming. It has plenty of sea, but most of the fish are too bony for even a good stew. It has large towns, even a proper city, but they pale in comparison to the extravagance of Arrentish metropoles on the mainland. Unique fruits grow along the southern coast that would make traveling the Morze easier, but they are unknown outside of a few scattered village foragers.
Indeed, as far as the rest of the world was concerned, the island was just a waypoint to bigger, more exciting places. And so it was for centuries. But three years ago things in Kirane changed forever.
Shepherds often used their sheep's intestines to create crude string instruments like rustic lyres or dissonant harps. But one inventor, Ana Violina, has taken these building blocks and created something new. Using smooth, curved wood and tight catgut, this "violin" can create a wide range of beautiful sounds: dark and sonorous, full and mellow, lustrous and rich. Ana played a brief song in the court of Petty Queen Jelena II and all were astounded. The Queen was so delighted with the performance that she ordered her finest carpenters to create more of these violins exactly to Ana's specifications, and founded a conservatory for the study of this marvelous new invention, appointing Ana as its director.
Which brings us to today. The conservatory's first class of "violinists" are about to graduate, and for their first public concert - the first time a violin orchestra has ever performed - they will play a requiem in honor of the Queen's deceased consort. As if things weren't already tense enough, the violinists heard that the Empress herself, Queen Cornelia the Quiet, will be in the audience. Impressing her would mean touring on the mainland and throughout the Imperia, ensuring a lifetime of prosperity.
A week before their graduation concert, the first chair's violin was destroyed during the night by an unknown saboteuse. There's no time to break in a new one before the concert - the chair is dismissed from the orchestra in tears. Who would do such a thing? The violinists realized the attacker had to be from their own ranks. But... who?

Welcome to this game of mafia! This is a 15 player closed-setup game. However, it is a "traditional" game; there will be little that isn't featured on the SA Mafia Wiki or the Mafia flash thingy. However there might still be some surprises thrown your way! Who knows?

The standard mafia rules apply: don't do anything that could be construed as "not in the spirit of mafia." But I'm not a huge stickler for rules, so as long as you don't break the game it'll probably be fine. For instance, feel free to edit your posts to fix minor things like formatting, even if you get caught by the ninja; just be reasonable about it.

However, please remember that I reserve the right to punish someone as I see fit for whatever thing they do.

My unique quirk: please ##unvote before re##voting. I will not count revotes without unvotes unless you are a double-voter. It doesn't matter what votebot says; votebot is just for your convenience, only the votecounts I present are to be assumed accurate and reliable. If you think you see a mistake in a votecount I have posted, please contact me privately so I may check it.

Posting is very important to me, however I will not expect you to be abuzz with posting things left and right. If you haven't posted for a while, I'll probably prod you with a PM casually, maybe with a "hey go post GO POST NOWWWW". If you have a reason why you're not posting, feel free to tell me -- I like to think I'm fairly reasonable. If you aren't posting and it's going to be a chronic problem, I'll ask if you want a replacement; it's up to you, I just want everyone to have a good time, you included. However, if you're put on probation for more than a day, then I will replace you without warning. So don't get probated!

Deadlines are the most effective and easiest way to encourage participation. To that effect, every game day will have a deadline. If majority voting has not been reached by then, the day will end with no hanging. The Day 1 deadline will be at most 5 days long, and they'll only get shorter! Note that if I am ever for some reason unavailable for a deadline I've set, you should assume it to be floating.

To sign up, simply say whether you want to play or be a replacement, whether or not you have PMs, and your email address. I'm "eccoraven" via g-mail. I only check my email every other day or so, so if you don't have PMs you should really consider it!

If you are living with, or otherwise have direct RL contact with, another player in the game, please tell me when signing up. It won't affect your chances for playing the game, I just like to know these things in advance.


Here we go!
