OC Circus Maximus and the Temple Mafia of Doom - Game Over, Town Relics Win!

Hammer.

Some windbag pontificates another tale of deception as you all eagerly listen. By the end, you are convinced that Spotted Sweetlips must die for the tall tales he's accused of telling. Newcomer DayDiamond encounters his first time being voted:
Dear DayDiamond
You are a Landline.

Alias: Spotted Sweetlips

Once upon a time, kids would call up the one (1) number for households with their rotary phones to ask if their friend could come over. Now, people just be textin’ n stuff. They probably don’t even ask, they’re so presumptuous.

Each night, you may use one of the Utility Players’ pooled abilities. As a team, you may assign a role to each member. Each role may only be used once a night. Any ability-checking abilities will receive the ability the mafia member performed that night.

Each night, beginning on N1 if you choose, you may designate one member to perform your factional kill. You may send “NX - Kill ALIAS” to the host. If ALIAS is outside a temple and not otherwise protected, they will die.

Each day, beginning on D2 if you choose, if your factional kill did not succeed at night, your team may send “DX - Destroy TEMPLE” to the host. TEMPLE will be destroyed, killing everyone in it, after taking the prior night’s protective abilities into account.

Each night, you must send “NX - Visit TEMPLE” to the host. You may include any other conditions for entry you like. If you are visiting a probability temple, please include a number from 1-100. If you are visiting an adventure temple, be aware you will need to complete the activity during the day.

Your safeclaim is: Building Gargantuan Stone Cathedrals.

You are allied with the Utility Players. You win if the Town Relics and the Proper Comedic Timing Relics are eliminated while at least one Utility Player is still alive.

A fifth Utility Player falls!

Now, you all sit back and wait for someone to start cackling. And they do. You follow the sound to the much-discussed But Thap Temple, and you cannot believe your ears at first. Surely the dynamite isn't going to blow the But Thap wide open?! Not to smithereens! Not our But Thap!

The TNT cartoonishly ticks down, until But Thap Temple indeed goes kaboomie.

You spread out to start hunting for remains. One body is discovered quite quickly. Young Yasha Goby is found on the right side, barely recognizable as saberslash11 after you clear the rubble from his remains:
Dear saberslash11
You are Daut.

Alias: Yasha Goby

Once upon a time, you were the greatest Age of Empires 2 player in the world. And then time passed your fast fingies by. You know you’ll never be #1 again, so you’ve settled for top memelord status.

Each night, you may send “NX - Research Fortified Walls for TEMPLE” to the host. TEMPLE will have its walls fortified, rendering it unable to be destroyed for the duration of the game. TEMPLE can still be sealed shut. The fortification will last beyond your death and will not be publicly announced.

Each night, you must send “NX - Visit TEMPLE” to the host. You may include any other conditions for entry you like. If you are visiting a probability temple, please include a number from 1-100. If you are visiting an adventure temple, be aware you will need to complete the activity during the day.

You are allied with the Town Relics. You win if the Proper Comedic Timing Relics and the Utility Players are eliminated while at least one Town Relic is still alive.

The other body takes you longer to find. You must search quite deep into the But Thap for this one, as it appears they were very thorough and vigorous in their spelunking. About as far into the temple's cavernous causeways as you can go, you find one Purple Firefish, his breath shaky, blood trickling from his nostrils and mouth.

Ditto looks up at you and takes your offered hand. The life leaves his body as he utters his last words, "I died where I wanted to be: in the butt trap."
Dear Ditto
You are a Local Advice Columnist Troll.

Alias: Purple Firefish

Once upon a time, you wrote into the local post with scandalous and uncouth questions for the advice columnist to answer. All fictitious events, of course, but salacious enough to always be published.

Each night, you may send “NX - Ask for advice” to the host. This will post an announcement in the nightly update. You must submit an announcement in the style of an old-school advice-writing column question, seeking advice from the other players in the game. This must be formatted with the asker being obviously in the wrong. If a majority of players who react to your announcement in-thread deem the advice-asker to be not in the wrong or offer helpful tips, you will permanently gain a vote. Because it would ruin your cover as the one who sends fake stories, you cannot tell anyone to vote or interact with your announcement.

Your family’s affairs are one of the other things taking up your copious amounts of free time, and you must ensure they are in order. At any point in the game, you may send “N/DX - Add ALIAS to your will” to the host. ALIAS will receive one-half of your total votes at the time of your death. You may change your heir at any time. They will not be notified until your will is read posthumously.

Each night, you must send “NX - Visit TEMPLE” to the host. You may include any other conditions for entry you like. If you are visiting a probability temple, please include a number from 1-100. If you are visiting an adventure temple, be aware you will need to complete the activity during the day.

You are allied with the Town Relics. You win if the Proper Comedic Timing Relics and the Utility Players are eliminated while at least one Town Relic is still alive.

You haven't seen so many villagers dead since Day Two!

Off you retreat, leaving the temple's destroyed remains behind, to prepare for the next night.

Results going out now.

It is now Night Five. N5 will end at 5pm PDT 7/14.
 
Night Five concludes.

It seems a little quiet as you wake up. No letter submitted, no bell rings to proclaim the news.

Soon enough, though, someone shrieks in terror: they've found a body!

You all rush to discover who it is, but there is caution tape set up around, and nobody is allowed near the freshly-passed remains of jalmont.

It appears, you overhear, that Scissortail Dartfish had contracted a particularly-deadly case of the bubonic plague. Nobody wants to get too close!
Dear JALMONT
You are Slapstick.

Alias: Scissortail Dartfish

Once upon a time, when movies were in black and white, at about 10 FPS, and had no sound, people were slapping their knees at you. Now, I mean, are you really that compelling? Haven’t we seen you before?

Each night, you may use one of the Proper Comedic Timing Relics’ pooled abilities. As a team, you may assign a role to each member. Each role may only be used once a night. Any ability-checking abilities will receive the ability the mafia member performed that night.

Still sending results but please let me know of any issues.

It is now Day Six. D6 will end in 24 hours, 5pm PDT 7/15. Nights will move to 24hr deadlines as well.
 
~And at the risk of a gaffe,~

A piece of paper flutters down with a message:
Dear Darling Darla,

I have spent the better part of my life breaking into and raiding temples. I've always been fascinated by the cultures that erect these monuments and I find the best way to celebrate those cultures is to take their artifacts from the dangerous temples and keep them safe in a place I can visit frequently in my own home country. Problem is, apparently temples have been crumbling down recently, so I need to protect these artifacts now more than ever. Any ideas for a place to visit?

Sincerely,
Surely Temple

Hello everyone, it's your favorite time. Storytime!

Today's story starts on n1, this user was sent to Hwangyong temple along with 2 other users users in order to be checked by my public party guy role. As you all know, StupidFlandrs was caught crashing that party and was subsequently lynched as a result. How he managed to get in to Hwangyong though always left us guessing, because Hwangyong temple is password gated, and as far as we knew, the village leadership and the 3 users we told to go there should have been the only people who had access to the password (obtained via temple inspection). We noted the suspicious activity and moved on.

This user also claimed to have had all items stolen from them while at Hwangyong temple, which we do know to be a valid outcome of that temple. However, later in the game, when he full claimed finally (after being incredibly obstinate all game long, mind you.) he changed that claim to let us know that he has in actuality picked up an item called "The Spoofer" from that temple. Which made us question, how did that user know of two valid outcomes of that temple if he only ever went there once? Again, we noted the suspicious activity and moved on.

Finally, last night this user was told to go to Hwangyong Temple again in order to be checked by me for a second time. And for a second time, my role was thwarted by a failure of the correct number of users to attend the party. This time, the excuse given was "i was burned out and forgot to submit the temple." But the following log shows a clear commitment to going:

Bass — Today at 9:45 AM hi can you please change your temple?
Bass — Today at 9:49 AM hwangyong
Bass — Today at 9:57 AM ?
User — Today at 9:58 AM ok
Bass — Today at 9:58 AM and i believe you alredy know the password
User — Today at 9:58 AM yeah

I'm sorry but this excuse is a bit too convenient, especially since this is the second time that they have caused the failure of my role through their action or inaction.

Laurel

You stand accused of allowing your mafia colleague to infiltrate Hwangyong Temple, lying about your temple outcomes, and lying about which temple you've agreed to go to. You are almost certainly the last Utility Relic. As a result, it is time that we
