Ixtlilton: Mar 10, 2012; How to Draw
by Rube Goldberg

Hello, I'm Ixtlilton, this is a game I tried to run a while ago, except it's smaller now and hopefully I can get 14 people for it. This will be the second game I've run, and it's been a while since I've been into mafia here, so hopefully we'll get a good mix of old and new people here. It's also significantly different from the original larger setup, so it's open to anyone. If more people want to play I can use the old setup though, I think it's pretty cool, and with no further ado, here's the setting:

The date is November 12th, 1809, at the height of the Napoleonic Wars. Six weeks ago an English whaling voyage arrived in Australia with a full complement of men. Five weeks ago it left with half that many, the last words heard from the captain about a map and a prophecy. Two weeks ago that same ship came upon what it believed to be a deserted island in the Pacific, only to find the inhabitants hailing from across the world, dressed in unfamiliar clothes, speaking strange dialects no one had ever heard before. Two weeks ago emergency rationing began, the captain began to grow more and more manic. Last week strange, inexplicable phenomena began occurring on the ship. Today the captain was found murdered with only a week's worth of food in the hold.

Who committed this murder? What did the captain know that no one else does? Who are these people from the island? Find out, in A Super Special Whaling Voyage, a mafia game for 14 players to start no earlier than February 23rd, with deadlines every Friday.

Standard Rules:
Hangings will be majority (days can end in a no hang)
Thread will be closed at night
No fake day actions
No posting after hammer
No posting mod PMs
No editing posts
No outside communication unless your role says you're allowed
Don't lurk!
Once the game starts I won't answer any questions in thread. PM me if you have questions.

I was too, it was a pretty cool setup. Also, I'm reserving a spot for Hal because he's the first mate.

Hal Incandenza: Feb 12, 2004; Game's over, and fuck you Jimson. It's not my fault that you guys couldn't get your shit together by deadline. No one gets access to docs because I don't fucking care anymore, I hope you all enjoyed ruining my game, and there won't be another.

FINALLY!

fiery_valkyrie: Mar 26, 2003; I'm proud of you, Bender. Sure, you lost. You lost bad. But the important thing is I beat up someone who hurt my feelings in high school.

It is dawn of the first day. The crew gathers as a psalm is read over the captain's body and he is sent tumbling off into the depths of the ocean. They eye each other warily, knowing the murderer is among them.

The game has begun! Deadline is this Friday at midnight.
