Newbie Mafia #11: Talent Show Mafia Welcome to School, Kids.

3. tinvision (replacing Zigathon), The Shakespearean Actor - Townie, Lynched Day 2
4. Dagger, The Milk-Chugger - Townie, Killed Night 2

1. This is a game. As such, I expect everyone to obey the general rules of sportsmanlike conduct one would expect in any game, which includes following all the rules below. Keep it fun; don't harass me or your fellow players.
2. 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 exception is if your role specifically allows it.
3. Days will last as long as they need to, within reason. A deadline may be imposed at my discretion, in the event that discussion lags severely.
4. Nights will generally last three days. They may be longer, or very rarely shorter, at my discretion. You will always be informed of exactly when night will end. If you fail to submit a night choice to me before then, I will randomize your action.
5. Votes must be in bold, in the form "vote: arimnaes". You must unvote before voting for someone else.
6. A majority is always required to lynch. If a deadline is imposed, and no majority is reached prior to it, the day will end with no lynch.
7. You may not, under any circumstances, edit or delete your posts. If you really need to add something to a previous post, the general tactic is to double-post. Try to avoid doing so unless it's necessary, however. (That's more of a forum rule than a mafia rule.)
8. You may not, under any circumstances, quote any game-related PM's. Use caution when paraphrasing them. If you're not sure whether you can post something, just PM me to ask about it.
9. You may not post anything game-related after you die. You are allowed one short "bah" style post, but that's it. Then you're, well, dead.
10. I expect a certain level of participation out of all the players. Please post at least once every two or three days. If you will be unable to post for a longer duration than this, please state so in thread. If it's going to be an incredibly long delay, or you don't think you will be able to participate enough in the future, please request replacement. Unexcused inactivity will result in a "mod prod" for first violation, and replacement after that. If the replacement list is empty, you will be mod-killed, regardless of alignment.
11. Direct correspondence from me may override any of the above rules (except number 1, obviously.)
The townie win condition is: "You win when all the mafia have been eliminated."
It was a bright and sunny day in Pleasantfieldville. At the Pleasantfieldville High School, the students and teachers had been working for days to prepare for the 11th annual Pleasantfieldville High School talent show. The school's image had been pretty poor for many years - low test scores, losing sports teams, vending machines that were always filled with nothing but cheese crackers.
This year, it was going to be different. This year, the students of Pleasantfieldville were going to show the world just how talented they were, and bring some prestige to their alma mater. No longer would the school play second fiddle to Grumpy Terrace Public High School, their neighbor and greatest rival. With this talent show, the school would be back in business.
But little did they know that saboteurs were already in their midst - talentless clods who intended to bring down the show with their terrible acts. They had already infiltrated the student body, and soon their precious talent show would be no more...
Meanwhile...
"Just a little higher, Principal Phillips." The students that were gathered in the high school auditorium gazed up at the huge banner that the principal was hoisting. "This is going to be great!" said one. "Yeah, this year we'll show 'em," said another.
"Okay, students," said the principal, wheeling out a sliding ladder. "I'm going to turn on the stage lights. Everyone out of the auditorium, and then come in and tell me how it looks. " The students filed out and waited in the lobby. Several seconds passed, and then they heard something that made them freeze: a snap, a scream, and then a loud crash.
Rushing inside, they discovered that a faulty wheel on the ladder had caused Principal Phillips to fall to his death, and tear down the banner in the process. "But I just checked the ladder yesterday!" shrieked one of them. "How could this have happened?!"
There's no other answer: sabotage. Some person or persons unknown, amongst you twelve, was responsible for the heinous act. And they can have only one goal: that the Pleasantfieldville High School talent show will flop, and the students will live forever in ignominy.
You can't let them win! Find the evil, untalented types who have infiltrated you and root them out!
Day 1 will begin once I have received everyone's confirmation. You may not post until then.
Checking in, saying I'll be at the PR today, and have a long flight day tomorrow, so I'll be inconsistant in posting. I'll catch up tonight and on Monday.
We live in a country were ~50% of the populace believe public schooling is a socialist conspiracy and that being called Einstein is an insult. We could try and fix it, but unfortunately the other 50% don't believe in euthanasia.
Vote ApokalypseKid9 for not randomvoting. Besides, he has numbers in his name.

I decided that it made it look like I was going of someone else's idea (from that one thread.. don't know its name...its aguide of some sort) and I really didn't want to ever deal with that, so I asked for one more change, and voila! no X (i was also a genius and made sure they deleted the _ :P)
Well, Zchinque, how do you know that won't happen here. I'm just being a team player is all.
Nono, a team player would sacrifice himself for his teammates, so you should clearly be voting yourself.
Of course, so far no one has confused us here, so there's currently not a problem to deal with.

No, it's not Rogue Rogue either. I wonder if people spelling my name wrong makes their vote not count? If not, then I would never get lynched, especially on Magic Lampoon. Apparently, nobody can spell Cephrir either.

Unvote, Vote Zigathon. You're bandwagoning just for the sake of bandwagoning, not giving any reasons for doing so, except stating that you are just blatantly bandwagoning. That is not good townie behaviour.

Did you do a random vote on Day 3 or something? That might get you lynched, but Day 1?
It was the first post in the thread. Then I got lynched for keeping the vote on him after he did some really scummy stuff to try to "lure out the scum", and when I asked for a reole claim because he was 1 vote from lynch, he turned the bandwagon onto me, that tricky scum-bag, and bye-bye Apokalypsekid9.

I almost got lynched on MTG News once for random voting. One of the votes didn't count, though both because it was editted into the post and because he spelled my name wrong (Cephrir does not have two I's in it).

Well, that sucks. Hopefully he got lynched the next day.
Well, how can I make it more convincing? Should I say that if you lynch me the townies will be one short and the real scum will have a better chance? You treat my honesty as a confession of scumminess, do you? Vote: Dagger.
First of all, your 'honesty' as you put it can only be confirmed by yourself. The fact that you are so certain of it means nothing to us as we can only judge you by your actions.
Secondly, I never said anything about your 'honesty' as a confession of your scumminess. If I did, I would have voted you. My comments were more on the way you made your bandwagon and your excuse when you unvoted.
Those, I would say are not very townie-like, as is your aggressive attitude toward me out of nowhere.
The question should be: Why not Sjelfrost? I'm just random-voting I admit, but as long as I don't find anyone else more "suspicious", my vote will stand.
@Zigathon: Why'd you 'spite-vote' Dagger and not Dreamblade? He was the first to question the authenticity of your apology...
That's an interesting question. The answer is because by the time I went to post a reply to it, Dagger had already posted something else in regards to it. Being that I didn't feel like retyping as its all random voting anyway, I voted Dagger. However, for pointing that out, you reminded me of what I had originally wanted to do. Vote: Dreamblade
Anyway, random voting is fine, but one usually gives some silly reason for it.
You need a stupid reason? Okay, your name has a meaning in Norwegian, unlike the other names. Sjel = soul, frost = frost. So your name means soulfrost in Norwegian. There you go.

If you're that concerned, then why not change your name to "+1 Dagger"? You won't be a mere dagger after that.
Anyways, vote InfinityCubed for posting after me.
Well, Dagger +1 is common too, as well as Dagger +4, but DreamBlade sounds... 'unique'.
