Default billymills Mafia [Game Over :O]

Welcome to the newest installment of Expert mafia, billymills Mafia.

To remind you, the flavor for this game was chosen randomly by Wikipedia’s “random article” function. Keep this in mind.

There have been some additions to the rules since the signup post which you should probably read. If you don’t, you run the risk of not knowing what the hell is going on.

The main addition from the last set of rules is the following:

At any point in the game, villagers can choose to abandon the search for their own item and “go rogue.” This will allow them to frisk for items other than their own, but will make their own item worthless to them. After going rogue, the only way to win is to hold two of your fellow villagers’ items (i.e. not the one mentioned in your role PM).

—---

It was a quiet day in The Empire. Millions of local citizens worked tirelessly every day to serve The Emperor, askaninjask. And most of these citizens were happy to do so. The iron fist of The Emperor’s rule didn’t affect them in too serious of a manner, and they went about their own business, not meddling in political affairs. It is these do-gooder citizens who comprise The Empire.

Things were not all great in The Empire, though. askaninjask had consistently been raising taxes on the poor throughout his reign in an effort to get rid of them, and as a result a revolution was forming. Heading this revolution was the leader of The Resistance, Walrein, who had amassed a group of loyal followers.

There were some, however, that saw through the lies of the political scheme entirely. They knew they couldn’t trust The Empire, and they knew The Resistance would only make things worse. The only option was to form a third, counter-revolution. They call themselves The Radical Center.

The showdown had begun. Who will rule The Empire? YOU decide!

To help you determine which side you want to me on, you take a look at the local newspaper and look up these two men, askaninjask and Walrein. You find that askaninjask is:

You could improve your knifing technique if you find yourself a Knife Manual. If only you had one lying around...

You are allied with The Empire. You win if The Empire is the last team standing and you exit the game with the Knife Manual in your possession.

At night, you may PM the host, askaninjask, “Night X - Massacre <alias> in Texas.” You will maul <alias> to such an extreme that he will be unrecognizable. Indeed, a whole other user from outside the game will need to take his place.

You are allied with The Resistance. You win if The Resistance is the last team standing and <snip>.

The role PMs say to send night actions to just me. Please also send night actions to Walrein. Thanks.

By the way, all role PMs have now been sent out and the game officially begins now.

It is now Night Zero. Night Zero ends 48 hours as of this post.

Hi members of the empire! I have a very easy to prove role that is very likely to be allied with the town! I would like for everyone to tell me the name of the item which they need tonight at the very least, as well as what items you are currently holding.

I will heckle everyone for at least this information. It behooves the village (and you individually) for someone to know who has what items and who needs what other items. Going from there will be super baller and we will win.

So let's be baller yea?

Hey, I just realized that rules 16 and 17 specify users, not aliases. Was this deliberate, or just a holdover from a pre-alias version or something?

Also, good luck, everyone.

Hey, I just realized that Aura Guardian's post makes no sense now that I've fixed the mistake in the rules.

(thanks)

K i am claiming, i am the martyr.

If you refuse to give me this information now, there is 0 chance of you ever doing anything significant for this town and you will probably lose because I will refuse to give you your item.

An important addition: I came up with the item names, not Wikipedia.

Schembechler, watching the display, asked Fry, "You're not going to let that guy long snap today, are you?" Fry responded, "Coach Schembechler, I don't plan on punting." Go Hawkeyes

So,

If you happen to want your item tonight, you're going to need to tell me your alias obviously; I cannot magically send you said item. Sorry. If you really don't trust me, you're a pussy you can wait until d1 when I prove my role to someone. That's your call though. But items should be in people's hands by the end of d1.

If you want help with a night action, feel free to ask me.

I'll be sending out what actions I would like from some people in a bit, since deadline's in like 16 hours or something

This post is two reminders. The first is that you should all really read the rules.

The second is that it's almost deadline (in a few hours), so get night actions in. I won't wait for you on N0.
