The dead:
SirSamVimes, Essence Carter, Town Vanilla, has been lynched day one!

TMMadman, Dalia Toomey, Scum Traitor Roleblocker/Godfather was lynched day three!

Retro Futurist, Laura Colby, Town Cop was modkilled day four!

flerp, ???, ??? ??? died night four!

GlitchThief, Jane Doe, Town Backup has been lynched day five!

Asiina, ???, ??? ??? died night five!

This is a mafia game for 11 players.

The rules, written with consideration:

1. Don't be a dick.
2. Post regularly.
3. Post absolutely nothing outside of '

' when you die. Please note this.
4. Don't try to circumvent the rules of your role. See rule 1.
5. You may not communicate out of the thread unless specified.
6. Theme song suggestions for the day are limited to once per player per game, first come first served.
7. The other rules of Mafia which go unsaid.

Here's what you might want to know about this game:

Flavor will be light. I have to work a lot now.

I have no idea what a conventional Mafia meta looks like. This game may contain roles that make you Upset. I believe I balance games well.

This game will probably not be the best game I've ever written. I'm hoping it will lead to that though.

As they woke, the first scream echoed off the featureless walls and into infinity.

The doctor stood, his voice projecting a calm reassurance that his shaking hands undermined. “Everyone, stay calm. We knew this was a possibility. There’s a contingency in place. There must be.”

One of the contractors, a civilian, grabbed him roughly by the lapels of his filthy labcoat and bounced him off the smooth walls. “How?” She roared, “Do you know what this place is? What have you done to us?”

Sliding inbetween them, the soldier raised his hands in a gesture of peace. “Relax,” he whispered, the authority in his tone in no way undercut by the volume. “We don’t know if we’re alone.”

The frantic party who had been clamoring for answers stopped and took stock for the first time. There were plain white stone walls forming a perfectly square tunnel, still carrying the echoes of their previous conversation. To one end, the tunnel seemed to stretch into the horizon. To the other, a crossroads. The lights seemed to emanate from the walls themselves.

The designer pushed her way forward towards the crossroads. “Come on. We’ll figure this out as we go. Standing here helps nothing.”

“Wait!” Shouted a man in a dark suit. “What if someone is looking for us? They have to be looking for us, right?”

They looked to the doctor, who was nursing his bruised head. He met their eyes, briefly. “Yes, yes. Someone is looking for us.” He rubbed his chin, “But, maybe not here. She’s right, we should explore a bit more, I think.”

He smiled.

I am noting this.

Put me down as a replacement, or as a regular player if Kashuno does not accede my demands and gives me the incorrect role in his big game.

The cool thing about running smaller games is that they fill up faster.

They end faster, too, which is the true mercy.

A couple big projects got dumped on my plate today but I'll get things going as soon as I'm done. Would you all prefer a Monday start or as soon as possible?

It's a long weekend and also my birthday weekend so I'd prefer Monday/Tuesday.

I say start as soon as possible just to annoy Asiina.

Cool, I may send out roles tonight and you're welcome to chat, but we'll officially open the game on Monday with a Wednesday deadline. I want to make sure I get that done while I still have some free time. It's a small game so even with the holiday that should be plenty of time for discussion.

I haven't run a game since March of last year, I'm excited!
