Mafia - Game in progress [Edited title]

The Game Room

Meeting #1 got out early, so I have a few minutes before meeting #2…

Chucara did explain why he was voting for Pizza. You may not like his reason, but it is there. Whether self-preservation votes are good, bad, or indifferent is a topic for another time, but I can see where you stand, and your vote is consistent with tat..

In my haste earlier I didn’t notice your vote on Pizza; that does lessen my suspicion that you’re trying to save Pizza. On the other hand, it means you’re voting for both parties in what has become a two-horse race, which always bothers me; it suggests indifference concerning the lynch choice, which suggests Scumminess. However, it looks like there are 4 other people who are also voting both sides of the fence, and I doubt that all five of you are Scum, so

unvote Pleonast

Two minutes. I’m here and ready to write the Dusk, so you shouldn’t have long to wait.

643

Yep you’re right again, I was scanning the thread for votes/unvotes and counted Stanislaus’ unvote of Cookies by accident

Dusk, Day One

EXT – The Town Square. The camera pans slowly down from the orange setting sun to the face of Askthepizzaguy, who silently mounts the gallows. We hear shouts from the crowd around him.

A VOICE
He tries to lead us by suggesting that we choose candidates and vote for them!

ANOTHER VOICE
It is a vile trickery!

A THIRD VOICE
We need no leader!

A FOURTH VOICE
Hang the wolf!

The chanting – “Kill the Wolf!” – begins, and soon reaches a fever pitch. Askthepizzaguy remains silent. The hangman slips the noose around his head, and places a meaty hand on the condemned man’s shoulder.

HANGMAN
Hungry? Well… maybe you can ask the pizza guy… in hell.

*With a guffaw, he yanks a lever; Askthepizzaguy drops out of the frame.

DISSOLVE to: The same, some hours later. The moon, bright and full, shines above. The rope still sways. Askthepizzaguy has not changed. PAN to: the same villagers, watching curiously.*

A VOICE
He tried to lead us, by suggesting that we choose candidates and vote for them!

ANOTHER VOICE
I was behind him from the beginning.

A THIRD VOICE
We need no leader!

A long pause.

A FOURTH VOICE
So what do we do now?

Askthepizzaguy, a Peasant Redshirt, is the first to fall.

Night One begins here, and will end on Friday, February 1 at 2:00PM Eastern (Day 2 will last from then until Thursday the 7th, after which we will be on a standard Thursday-Saturday schedule for the rest of the game). Get those Night actions in!

From here until Friday afternoon, fluff talk only.

645

Aww, you didn’t single us out by name again. I like that. :slight_smile:

646

:smack:

So the Plan was a good idea! :smiley:

647

It was whether he was scum or not. We had a very productive Day 1.

You know, apart from lynching town. :smiley:

648

We can debate that…in the morning :slight_smile:

649

Well… some of you can.

650

Sorry pizza. I really like your plan though. It will probably fall apart now though.

Oh wait… Is this a no night strategy game?

651

It is indeed! We’re lynchin’ it old school.

652

The best laid plans of pizza guys quite often don’t work out as hoped, to quote my national poet.

Bad luck, pizza.

653

I thought this was a low budget flick. I didn’t think we could afford those.

654

Plenty of great low-budget flicks have those.

You’ve got to watch out for the teeth, though…

655

story paid you to do that, just so they wouldn’t have to post an updated vote count, right?

656

Vaya con dios, Pizza Pie Man :frowning:

657

Sorry, I’d love to comment on that, but I’m under a gag order…

658

You should learn to suppress your gag reflex, if you’re going to be a fluffer.

659

Come on that set up and hit couldn’t have been easier if we were playing t-ball. I did laugh though.

660

Farewell Pizzaguy.
