Bird mafia [Concluded]

[Askthepizzaguy]

Be grateful your name is not literally just your username plus a random bird.

It's like black hawk... oh never mind. I can't argue this point.

[El Barto]

One of these is the correct reason:

(a) I already have a hawk on my list, and didn't want people to think I was just being lazy

(b) I did not think of it, and now I don't want to admit that I didn't see the obvious.

And the mystery of which one of these is the correct one will never be solved.

¿Por qué no las dos?

¿Por qué no las dos?

Porque todavia tengo mi orgullo.

[El Barto]

I'm reading you in a Ted Cruz-like voice. Heh-heh.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Does he also have to use google translate?

Who am I kidding, he'd use it every time if he could.

[El Barto]

Well, his attempts at using Spanish when facing off with Marco Rubio sounded to me as if he were running his words through Google Translate on the go.

Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Ted Cruz doesn't know what he's doing. He knows EXACTLY what he's doing.

In order to prevent this thread from further turning political, I'm drawing the line here. If you're interested in discussing the 2016 US Presidential race or any other topic of similar nature, allow me to direct you to the Backroom.

I do remember the gameroom has always been fairly apolitical. Mostly because once it gets political, actual moderation is needed around these parts, and speaking as a former gameroom moderator, we certainly don't need that kinda stuff.



Actual warnings and infractions: yuck.

[El Barto]

OK, GH, but if you want to stymie Winston's campaign then you'll find out he can do that moderatin' trick as well. ;)

[Askthepizzaguy]

Seems like sign-ups are stalling. Rather than force things and try to get a bunch more people in the game who may/may not show up, how about we rand with a 13er and get this thing started relatively soon?

That ok with everyone?

[GeneralHankerchief]

I could put a [sign-ups] tag on the thread in the meantime.

[Zack]

cool.

Cool, cool, cool.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Are you signing up to play, Beskar?

[El Barto]

‘In’ is visible twice in that video, atpg. I think it safe to say that he is.

[Beskar]

Are you signing up to play, Beskar?

Only because you are not AsktheKentuckyGuy and want to eat me.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Very well. I'll get this bird mafia up and about, flapping and pecking, etc.

I need to write the roles and rand it.

[El Barto]

As many would-be GMs have found out, the problem with people actually signing up is that then you have to write rôles an such.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Sorry, I was busy finishing out my duties in the mafia universe game wherein I was evil.

I'm deaded now, so I will get this up and flapping today. With 15 players, my word...

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

um... which word was that again?

I was under the distinct impression that.... you had heard...

[El Barto]

You said it'd be today, and it already is today. Where's our roles, you?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Almost done. ;)

[Askthepizzaguy]

RULES:

1. Be awesome, and be nice to each other
2. You may not quote your role PM, and you may not claim what kind of bird you are.
3. You may suggest what role you have (example: vanilla, cop, doctor etc) not the name of the bird.
4. There are no cults in this game, it is Town versus Mafia
5. It will be more vanilla than not vanilla but there will be spooky powers
6. Please do not speak after you are dead, and do not thank posts during play.
7. Same don't cheat rules apply to this game as always. No multi-accounts, no hydras, no sharing accounts.
8. No out-of-thread communication unless granted permission by me.


Game play:

• Game begins with a Day phase
• On Day One, after everyone has posted once, day will last for 24 more hours
• Nights will last for about 24 hours or until I've received all orders. If this gets excessive you'll miss your action. If you are an inactive mafia, your kill will be randed, and it may land on yourself to end the game.

Opening narration:




You are a bird, in a habitat with other birds, and you wake up and do birdly things. But it seems like the pigeon has been dismantled. All that's left are blood and feathers.




The pigeon has died!

Note: the character you were given will almost certainly be different from the gag names I gave you in the signup sheet.

Don't claim characters, roles only.
