New York City, 2263AD

A mysterious force appears in the outer reaches of space. An ancient order say it is the embodiment of a great evil prophesied to return every 5000 years that threatens the very existence of humankind. What forces could possibly stand up to such a powerful and mysterious being? Would the various competing factions on Earth band together to ensure the survival of the species? But in forming such a coalition, who can be trusted not to betray humanity in pursuit of untold power given by the grace of a cosmic superpower?

Fifth Element Mafia: A Large Game for 23 players!

Standard mafia rules apply:

Don’t talk out of thread unless specifically permitted, don’t copy/paste PMs from me, don’t edit your posts, no toxx or stuff against the spirit of the game. Also remember this is a game that we’re playing for fun, so don’t go overboard insulting each other or being dicks. If you don’t have PMs, make sure to mention how you’d like to be contacted in your signup.

* Days will be 72 hours
* Nights will be 24 hours (or shorter if all actions are resolved). I like really short nights to keep the game moving, so if you're around at deadline / time period update, please make a decision after the flip and send it in right away. Conditional Submissions submitted ahead of time are OK (if X happens, I want to do Y, otherwise Z).
* Deadlines will usually be at 11PM EST.
* The town wins when all threats have been eliminated. The scum win when they have killed everyone else, or can inevitably do so through control of the vote and night actions. If any third parties exist, their victory conditions will be defined in their role PM.
* Lurkers that make less than 10 posts per game day may be warned, replaced, or modkilled at my discretion.
* Don't post after hammers. Posting after Day Actions is OK unless you've been the target of a vig. No fake day actions are allowed.

Put me down as an alternate. If Octopathfia is over by the time this starts I would very much like to play in this game. True 5th Element story -

I saw this in the theater with my girlfriend who hated Sci Fi and she forced me to leave it about 15 minutes in and we went and saw some other movie (Can't Hardly Wait or some lovely teen dramady). To this day I regret not telling her to leave on her own.

Original strat do not steal:
Kill X. If X is docced, kill Y instead.

(I'm interested. No clue what this "5th element" is. I'm assuming it's alchemy related :V)

And the rest of the story is that you dumped her for her horrible taste?

SolusLunes: Oct 10, 2011; I now have several regrets.

I'm fine with alternating in (and going fully in if I get merk'd in Octopathfia).

Until then I'm going to try to keep it to one mafia at a time.

GenericGirlName: Apr 10, 2012; Why did you post that?

Oh god this sounds so loving rad. I'm scared to be in three concurrent games of mafia, but I'm going to watch the hell out of this.
