Hmm… if a superstitious person stocks up on wolfsbane and silver bullets because they’re worried about werewolf attacks, what about if they’re worried of mafioso attacks??
Embarassing photos of the godfather, with arrangements to published in the event of one’s death??

regular bullets? 
Just don’t get your wires crossed and load up on garlic, that actually attracts them!
What happened to my PMing? I thought there was just a ‘PM’ button next to the ‘reply’ button. How do I PM?
Click on NAF1138’s name and you’ll get a dropdown menu that includes “Send a private message”.

Look in the upper right hand side of your screen, below the straightdope banner.
Also, can someone clarify whether or not everyone got their roles yet? NAF said that he’d be sending them out in a couple hours, then in his next post said that you had to confirm first, then he’d send them.
I haven’t got mine.
heard nothing yet. What time zone is LA in? what time is it there now?
He has not sent out roles yet. He said he would do so at 10am his time. It is only 6am his time currently.
Might I suggest that a new thread is started so we don’t have to go through this 2 pages later on in the game?
Wow. 37 people. Keeping track of who said and did what is going to be something!
I’d also suggest that unvoting be put in red to reduce confusion. I also have not received my role assignment.

Don’t worry. What between the Mafia, the serial killer and the vigilante, the ranks are likely to thin out quickly. 
Wow… so 37 participants and nine potential roles, but some of the roles might not be in the game at all, so… commence being paranoid.
another question, will there be different death scenes for people killed by mafia/Sk/vigilante, or are we just kept guessing as to who got who?

ah HA!
It must be a different site that just has the button.

I think that all phpBB sites with private messaging use that sort of arrangement, actually. Maybe other forum providers too.

So, we should expect two or three deaths each night, depending on whether the Mafia is off at a Family wedding or something?
Plus one killed every day by popular vote?
Just to be clear, the basic goal is the same as the other game, yes?
As in, the Mafia wins if they get numberical superiority?
The townsfolk win by killing all the Mafia?
The Serial Killer loses by dying, otherwise wins? Regardless of the Mafia/townsfolk outcome?
Hmmm. Can we pay protection money to keep on the Mafia’s good side? How about bribes to the cops, in case the citizenry seems to be looking askance at us?

Protection money? You are talking about a criminal activity. What you pay to the Family is insurance, my friend. Insurance. I hope we are clear on this.
…Oh halp, now I’m typecasting myself as mafia and the rôles haven’t even been assigned yet.
All dead bodies are welcome at the IMHO “Backseat Hitmen” thread. All lines open. No waiting.

[QUOTE=One And Only Wanderers]
Question - are the cop roles aware of which type of cop they are?
[/QUOTE]
Yes, but they will not know who the other cops are, or what other types of cop are out there.

Um, did you forget my name on that list?

Shoot, yes I did. Sorry about that.
