The Infection. No-one knows how is spread or where it came from, but in a few short weeks it spread rapidly across North America. Entire cities succumbed to the virus, which causes rapid degeneration of the body and brain, resulting in a stinking, rotting, mindless creature that attacks any humans on sight in a display of pure rage. They attack seemingly unending waves – a Horde of zombies, their throats raw with howling, their faces twisted with malice.
As the Infection spread, the Government acted quickly – sealing off the worst areas as quarantine, and establishing tightly controlled safe zones, mobilizing the army to aid any survivors and to keep the Zombies at bay.
Some people survived the initial wave of disease. Either immune or simply lucky, their very existence is a terribly struggle against their worst nightmare. It is one such group of Survivors that concerns us…
“Let’s not throw a party until we’re out of the city.”
Bill blows a cloud of smoke into the air as the quiet hangs over the Survivors. The only sound is the moaning of the zombies below and the heavy breathing from the Survivors themselves. Louis fiddles with his gun, and then stands up.
“We still all made it Bill. That’s what matters.”
Bill snorts as Louis walks over to the table under the Tarpaulin.
“Hey guys! There’s ammo!”
Francis’ head snaps round. He grunts as he pulls himself to his feet and walks over to the table. Zoey gets up and looks at Bill.
“Just a second, let an old man rest his bones”. Zoey nods and joins the others.
Bill watches the three gather round the pile of ammunition on the table, rifling through boxes and dropping empties on the ground.
“I’m getting too old for this” Bill thinks. He drops his dog end onto the ground and slowly pulls himself to his feet, feeling his old joints creaking under the exertion. Zoey turns to look at him, and then her face contorts in shock. She points and prepares to shout when Bill feels a thick, slimy tongue wrap around him. Instantly he knows. A Smoker.
Before he can even cry out, Bill is dragged backward over the edge of the building and…falls.
Ged - Bill, Veteran Survivor has fallen to his death
Francis, Louis and Zoey rush over to the edge. Down below they can see Bill’s crumpled body, surrounded by zombies. Zoey tears up and even Louis is silent.
“God dammit, Bill” mutters Francis.
Louis breaks the silence: “We…We gotta keep moving,”
The others grimly agree. Bill wouldn’t have wanted them to stand around moping. They head back over to the ammo table and attempt to refill their magazines, but there is hardly anything left. A few cartridges here and there, not even a full clip. With heavy hearts and a feeling of dread settling in their stomachs, the three make their way into the building.
With almost no bullets, they’re going to have to play smart. Instead of no holds barred assault, the only way through is pretend to be one of them and hope they simply don’t notice three warm-blooded Survivors sneaking past.
If any of them get out of this mess in one piece it’d be a miracle. A miracle they are surely owed.

1. Bold your votes and unvotes please, this makes it easier for us. They should look like this: Vote loran16
2. If you are unvoting, I request that you write Unvote loran16 rather than just Unvote as this makes the vote counts easier and more accurate.
3. Any votes or unvotes not in bold will not be counted.
4. Do not communicate at night or day unless your role PM says otherwise.
5. Do not quote PM's or you will be modkilled. You can discuss the flavor and paraphrase it in your own words, but do not quote me.
6. Unvote before casting a new vote. Failure to unvote may result in the vote not being counted.
7. You may vote No lynch, and a majority of these votes will end the day without a death. 8. Please do not edit or delete your posts no matter how stupid a mistake you made. This will get you modkilled. This is your only warning.
9. Once you’re dead, you’re dead, so stop posting please. A single ‘bah’ post is permissible.
10. Even after you are dead, please refrain from discussing the game or your role with anyone, even other players who have also been eliminated. If you have any questions about this rule, please ask.
11. If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 72-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread. Otherwise, you may be prodded or replaced.
12. If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. I will not wait for you – if you do not submit a choice to me, tough! No choice will be made.
13. Lynches will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, his pleas are useless and any attempts to unvote will go unheeded.
14. If you are requesting a mod prod or vote count, please bold you request so that we can see it more clearly.
15. In order to keep this game moving, everyone is expected to post at least once every two to three days and if you don't, you may be replaced or modkilled. WITHOUT WARNING, whatever your side.
16. The Town Win Condition is: You Win when all the Survivors are Dead.
17. HAVE FUN. This is not optional.
18. Lastly and most importantly. Respect us and the rest of the players; I hope I do not have to modkill anyone.
Quote from Sample Vanilla town Role PM »
Common Infected - Vanilla Town
You are a Common Infected, the physical remnant of what was once a human being, struck down by The Infection. Now you live but a half-life, wandering around this decimated city consciously unaware of the crumbling and apocalyptic state of affairs, knowing only an insatiable Hunger. The Hunger to feed, infect, consume.
And now you can smell them: Survivors. You feel the hunger rising, overwhelming anything human that might have remained and obliterating any desire to stop until find them and destroy them
As Vanilla, you have no special abilities beyond your vote and insatiable appetite (no ingame effect).
I actually didn't notice you were in it at first, but you have to admit their names are more readily seen around. But, yes, much love to you, ZDS. I know you're good, too.

Pressure is good Unvote: Eric Draven, Vote: Inkling Rain
He probably really thought we wouldn't see that he was there.
I HATE lurkers! (kpaca made me that way in superhero mafia.)
OMg, Ced, do you have flavor that makes it to where you can only say brains? If so, I don't think I'll be learning much from you this game. But, that obviously makes you town.
Wow, last time I checked we were still in pregame...no delay meant. I'm currently on my way home from deployment, so my posts are at the mainland US' night times. Thank god only 2 more months and I'll be back in sunny Hawaii! Anywho.
I'm town as well
How does everyone like their brains, I prefer mine scrambled! lol
Umm, just trying to promote conversation during the random phase while we wait for people to get underway. It was one of the first things that happened in Normalville, and it seemed like a good start. That way we don't attack a noob not realizing that they are noob and think they're scum. Know what I mean?
No, there is not. The Noob card can only be deciphered by the others in the game. We have to analyze and decide if the player in question is responding as naive noob or serious scum. But, imo, it does help to know who's noob while we're deciding this.
Of course, I could be wrong, in which case ZDS is definitely the one to trust on this (or Archon Kamigawa or Ced395)
I guess that's more of an assumption. I figured if your flavor restricted you from saying more than brains, then it wouldn't make sense for it to be scum flavor, since scum are the survivors.
I said he's definitely THE one to trust (along with you and AK) in regards to analyzing people's reactions and such, and what they generally mean. And, I say that simply because you three are more experienced than I.
Well, I could have been making it up. Infact, that's what I was doing. What do you think about that?
Well, honestly, I'm not sure. I can't think of any reason town would do something like that in a basic except to confuse people who aren't as sure (as you've done with me). But, I don't want to vote you just for that because it's not suspicious enough in my eyes, so I'll say IGMEOY.
Well, it's sometimes a better idea to take your own view on reactions, rather than follow the views of experienced players. The thing is, seeing as experienced players are as likely to be scum as anyone else, why is ZDS (or me, or whoever), somebody to trust?
Well, yeah, you want to trust your own views, but if you're not sure, I would think it's a good idea to hear what the more experienced players have to say and evaluate your position from there.
I'm not just going to do whatever the experienced players do to be safe, and I'm not saying that just because ya'll are more experienced that you're better at it, but experience does count for a lot in all walks of life.
Considering most votes so far have been placed randomly, and "lack of knowledge" is as arbitrary as voting for players for having "too much knowledge", why do you think your vote should stay on her? At this stage in the game people aren't needing to prove innocence, they're needing to make reasoned cases against others. You should need to give a reason to vote for her as opposed to needing a reason not to vote for her.
Maybe because he's being a jumpy scum?
Of course, saying that makes saying the same about me true too

@MadersHex: You are aware that the only game that i have been in that has finished is Normalvile, and i was replaced in that?
Other than that, i just died in basic #10 and i'm in guildpact.
Firstly, I seemed to have missed the questions. Secondly, i'm new to this, so bandwaggoning seemed like the only thing to do then. When did the random phase end , because no one died, that I know of, so isn't it still fairly random? Two more things, can we post after a certain time like 10:00, and when is day one over only after a vote?

The random phase ends when we really get to probing. Therefore, Ced ended it with his first major post.
Um, we're all in different time zones, so we just post when we can. You're only considered lurky after about 2 days with nothing.
Day One ends when someone is lynched. I believe it's 7 votes to lynch someone today.
......yea I thought 7, but thought it actually went by days [/facepalm]. i looked through for any questions and didn't see anything, so if you really have any ask away.
I seem to think that because lucknorris hasn't posted, he is a noob who is scum and is just trying not to confuse the ☺☺☺☺ out of everyone and look suspicious like I did.
