Sometimes, I worry that I’m not the hero everyone thinks I am.
The philosophers assure me that this is the time, that the signs have been met. But I still wonder if they have the wrong man. So many people depend on me. They say I will hold the future of the entire world on my arms.
What would they think if they knew that their champion--the Hero of Ages, their savior--doubted himself? Perhaps they wouldn't be shocked at all. In a way, this is what worries me most. Maybe, in their hearts, they wonder--just as I do.
When they see me, do they see a liar?
Rules (inspired by Xylthixlm, stolen from Ged!)
[0] Please copy all PMs to Prophylaxis, the mod of the game.
[1] I will enforce the rules strictly, because I'm evil like that.
[2] Your vote must be in bold. You don't need to unvote before voting.
[3] If my vote count doesn't seem to reflect your vote, just revote.
[4] Once your death scene has been posted, you're dead. Dead people don't make forum posts. If you make a post after you are dead, I will hunt you down. For the record, I actually have a text file on my computer of all the people who've broken this rule in the past. I may or may not have plans for it.
[5] Post at least once every 48 hours. If you don't, I'll hunt you down. And prod you. After that you’ll be given at most another 48 hours or so before you are either replaced or modkilled. If you're going to be without computer access for more than 48 hours, let me know ahead of time either in the thread or by PM. Remember, people: if we work together we can have a replacement free game, but that can only happen with your help.
[6] No funny stuff like invisible text, tiny text, cryptography, or acronym claims.
[7] Don't edit posts.
[8] Don't quote PMs or private communications.
[9] You may not talk outside of the thread to anyone about anything that goes on in this game. Period. Whether you're dead, or they're dead, whether they're in the game or not. The only place that this is permissible is in the spectator chat, or when a role directly contradicts these rules.
[10] Have fun and be nice to the other players and me, even if we don't deserve it.
I reserve the right to modkill any player who breaks any rule [5] or higher. This applies especially to [9], but also note it’s application to [5]. I do not like making people replace into my games. I do not like spending time looking for replacements. I do not like slowing down the game while we go through this whole song and dance of looking for a replacement. Modkills circumvent all these things.
If you EVER have questions about the game, PM me. I love having more ways to procrastinate, and caring to your every whim is one of my favorites. If you are confused, curious, or unsure about anything ever, let me know before doing anything stupid.
This game contains no neutrals, and there are confirmed to be twelve town and four mafia.
This game has been reviewed and looked over by Ecophagy and Visorslash. Thank them both.

Most Days will be somewhere between 10 to 14 days in order to keep the game moving. However, there are three public deadline extensions available. These extensions may be requested by the players at any time in the thread, and may be granted at my sole discretion. Don't be mad if I say no.
I consider myself to be a man of principle. But, what man does not? Even the cutthroat, I have noticed, considers his actions "moral" after a fashion.
Perhaps another person, reading of my life, would name me a religious tyrant. He could call me arrogant. What is to make that man's opinion any less valid than my own?
I guess it all comes down to one fact: In the end, I'm the one with the armies.
Ecophagy, The Lord Ruler, Town Emperor, has been killed in the pregame.
*********************************************************
THE LORD RULER - Ecophagy
*********************************************************
DOSSIER:
Name: Rashek
Abilities: Many
Gender: Male
Residence: Luthadel
Ethnicity: Terris
Background:
Why must I write a dossier for myself? This empire has lasted for over one thousand years, and I have been ruling for that long of a time. This Final Empire will never perish, for I can never be killed. I have the powers of both a Mistborn and a Feruchemist; I am able to compound all sixteen metals in order to make myself immortal. Nothing shall stand in my way.
Welcome to Mistborn Mafia, Ecophagy! You are a Town Emperor. You have the following special abilities:
Passive Abilities: Pregame Death: At the beginning of the game, if you reviewed this setup, you will die a lonely and painful death, and be sent up to the spectator chat. Hooray!
Win Condition: All the mafia must die.
It is now Day 1. With 16 alive, it takes 9 votes to lynch.
The deadline is in two weeks, on Friday, March 17th.
Vote Bur definitely scum this time! Just look at that egging on.
Hey, I have a really nice and comfy pocket. I know you want to go there, it's really great. It's the greatest. Greatest pocket on the earth, you'll totally love it, okay?
...no?

Is there some kind of meta regarding Gentleman Johnny in relation to voting "no lynch"? And Shadow?
@ Hunt- were you trying to incite Shadow? Why? Why did you stop because of GJ?
@ Rhand- would you say not voting no lynch makes GJ more likely to be scum (however slightly) or was your vote purely random to you?
...GJ's icon has become animated and it's even creepier than before...

GJ loves to no lynch (or at least has the reputation of loving it). As for the relation to shadow, Huntzilla "caught" shadow with a reaction test based on no voting in Bare Bones before he replaced out. Caught in quotations because Shadow didn't get lynched for ages after that.

Sort of realized that after reading GJ's sig (after I asked). Still like to hear from the 2 I questioned.
I had not noticed you posted right before me earlier. What exactly are you finding suspicious? Your own post is also an RVS post with no vote.

My vote is random. It's weird that he didn't vote no lynch, but since he votes that as both alignments, not doing it isn't alignment telling either.
You're quick to jump on people. I understand the what's suspicious part, but why add the "Your own post is also an RVS post with no vote."? He did vote in his first RVS post.
Sounds like mudslinging to me.
To explain in more words: when I read his post, my reaction was "oh, did Grapefruit accuse others for not voting while he's not voting himself? That's bad."
If I wouldn't have looked back, that would've made Grapefruit scummy in my eyes. But then I did read back and saw he was voting, so Kit's accusation is baseless and serves only to make Grapefruit look bad.

yeah Grapefruit chainsawed through that question, but it's basically meta and fun in the early stages
If men read these words, let them know that power is a heavy burden. Seek not to be bound by its chains. The Terris prophecies say that I will have the power to save the world.
They hint, however, that I will have the power to destroy it as well.
@Hunt: That would be a nice change, I don't think we've ever actually been aligned have we? We'll see though, I might have had you in trigger happy if not for that stupid double voting and everyone saying "Nah, scum double voter isn't a thing"

You misunderstand me. I am aware Grape made a vote, and so did almost everyone who had "made posts with no vote" in the thread. I never once said Grape did not vote, nor did I say there was anything scummy about his post. I'm only asking Grape to clarify his statement and offering a counter that he made a non-vote post and therefore it is not necessarily scummy.
If grape was talking about players not voting, he should have said that rather than saying, specifically "posts without votes" but then the only person I saw that posted and did not vote was GJ so I still don't get where he's coming from.
Sometimes, I worry that I’m not the hero everyone thinks I am.
The philosophers assure me that this is the time, that the signs have been met. But I still wonder if they have the wrong man. So many people depend on me. They say I will hold the future of the entire world on my arms.
What would they think if they knew that their champion--the Hero of Ages, their savior--doubted himself? Perhaps they wouldn't be shocked at all. In a way, this is what worries me most. Maybe, in their hearts, they wonder--just as I do.

Vote TheRealStinkyJoeTerry
That name is too long, I can't remember it.
Can't trust that guy. And he's so bad at mafia, this one vote may be enough to make him confess his sins.
Vote Cantrip
Hey, I have a really nice and comfy pocket. I know you want to go there, it's really great. It's the greatest. Greatest pocket on the earth, you'll totally love it, okay?

What's "sanderson game"?
Vote Apoxado nice to meet you.
The GJ way path to no lynching:
Reading the flavor text for this game feels like reading a different language
Vote: Gentleman Johnny
I'm scared of the mask
Are you hiding something behind it?
Vote: AtheistGod for the lovely moon avatar.
Hey Shadow, look what I'm doing.
Oh, *****, GJ's in here.
Unvote.
Well, old reliable it is
...
Vote Bur
o-0.
I am not gone yet, boyo.

No no lynch vote?
