Prologue

Sahara desert, 1100 AD.
Hunger...
The need to feed was all he could think of.
Reduced to a caged animal. Again and again he tried to open the sealed coffin. The marks were glowing, as the caged being tried to free itself. Rage, hate and... hunger. The need to feed. Unbearable.
Alim and Nikolaos looked at each other.
Alim's face expressed fear. "We should have killed him, Nikolaos. We're making a terrible mistake. He's too strong."
Nikolaos didn't say a word. With a grim expression, he kept working on the last magical seal.
A blue glowing light and a soft, tinkling sound, indicated that the last seal was in place. The marks on the coffin stopped glowing. The roaring sounds stopped. It was... silent.
"There's only one punishment for what he did: eternal suffering. Those are our laws, Alim. We are the elder. This is what we need to do."
"I disagree, Nikolaos."
Nikolaos shrugged. "We still need to seal the cave entrance." Without waiting for Alims' answer, Nikolaos turned around and went outside.
Alim followed and together they placed the seven seals; obfuscating the cave entrance, making it disappear and invisible for the human eye.
"As long as he's alive, it'll never be over," Alim said, after the work was done.
"The seals have never been opened. We're using this procedure for over 5000 years now, nobody has ever managed to break the seals, not on purpose, not on accident. He'll suffer for eternity, as he deserves."
Alim stared at the sky. "We need to hurry, it'll be dawn soon."
They mounted their horses and disappeared at the horizon.

Granada - Albaicin - 1491 AD
Alim was making preparations for his departure.
The combined forces of Aragon and Castille would arrive at Granada very soon.
He sighed and looked around. Another milestone in the history of men.
Many centuries ago, he had stopped caring about humans and their empires. Nonetheless, he felt sad about the nearing end of the last moorish bastion in his beloved Al-Andalus.
He gathered his belongings. Before leaving the patio of what had been his home for two centuries, he looked at Elvyra's body for the last time. She had served him well.
He grabbed his cloak and went outside. He had a long journey ahead of him and he wasn't exactly looking forward to it. Accepting his fate, he shrugged.
As he was walking down the alley, he heard a strange, soft noise. Instinctively, he ducked. The silver dagger planted itself in the wooden doorpost right behind where his head was half a second ago. Without paying attention to the trembling weapon, Alim jumped forward and started to run.
Tonight, he was not the hunter, but the prey. He should have known better. Running through the narrow streets of Albaicin, he feverishly started to think about a place to hide. An arrow barely missed him and he kept running. Wondering how they did find him, wouldn't help. It was too late. He had to disappear. And quickly. His senses told him that the Alhambra was behind him, so he had to go left, then right, then straight ahead and then he had to climb up the little house with the grey...
When he entered the alley, he realised his mistake. There would be no where to run. Disappearing was no longer an option.
He turned around and saw three dark figures coming near. They were breathing heavily, much to Alims' relief. Maybe, he, who hadn't breathed for ages, would still have a chance.
He jumped two meters in the air, avoiding the silver dagger thrown at him. Even before he came down, two metallic objects floated through the air. One of the dark figures fell down, the throwing knife in his throat ending his life. Another one fell on his knees.
"You won't bother me anymore, dagger," Alim said, grinning, "that knife is poisoned."
The vampire turned his gaze at the last figure.
"Now it's just you and me."
His opponent kept silent as he unsheeted his silver blade.
With his arms crossed, Alim calmly waited.
The last remaining dagger froze. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move.
"I already fed tonight," Alim said, unsheeting his 300 year old, razor sharp scimitar.
The dagger kept staring at him as Alim came closer, moving in for the kill.
Alim struck, but his blade didn't meet flesh and bones. In the momentum of his movement, he fell on the ground.
The dagger stood behind him.
"Your magic won't work on me, Alim."
Alim turned around and looked up, his face expressing agony.
"This cannot be..."
"Apparently, you're wrong," the undead said, smiling.
Lifting up his sword, he said to Alim: "I won't make the same mistake as you."

Granada, September 2010
Sacromonte, September 14th, 2010
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Daggers%20in%20the%20Night/P9150327.jpg
He was late. Looking at his watch, he kept walking, almost running. A few tourists on the road gave him a strange look. Who in his sane mind would be running up these steep streets, wearing a dark cloack and a black hat in this climate? Who was this guy? Sandeman?
The man in the weird outfit didn't care about the odd looks. He was in a hurry. Entering a narrow, steep alley, he looked around him, to see if there was noone in the vicinity. Assured that nobody had followed him, he quickly disappeared.
The cave was not very big, but there was enough room for the 35 or so dark figures, all dressed similar.
One of them looked up.
"You're late."
"Thanks for the newsflash."
The man sat down and waited. Surely, this was something big. All known daggers were gathered into this room. This was only the third time in the existence of their brotherhood of vampire hunters that a meeting this size had been called. The last time, their brotherhood had been destroyed if it wouldn't have been for a very unusual alliance with two of their preys, during the time of the Crusades.
One of those preys had been killed in this very same city, many centuries ago. None of the daggers who had caught Alim had survived the hunt, but that price had been well worth it.
A soft tinkling sound confirmed that the door had been sealed.
One of their brothers stood up.
"It's awake. And it's here, among us."
The daggers stared at their brother in shock. They all knew what this meant. The ancient evil that had been buried in 1100 had escaped its' prison. To make things worse, it had managed to infiltrate their brotherhood.
"But Nikolaos assured us that this was impossible," a sister managed to murmure.
"We made a mistake by trusting that creature."
Thanks to their excellent training, most daggers calmed down quickly. They all knew what needed to be done first now.

Welcome to my latest mafia game...
~~ Daggers in the Night ~~,
a game about vampires and vampire hunters set in present day Granada (Spain). In this game, you'll be part of a dramatic episode in the eternal struggle between the Silver Daggers (a brotherhood of vampire hunters, rumoured to be on the origin of the well known hashashins) and the cursed ones, nowadays known as vampires.
***
Rules:
I. Basic mafia rules
There are two sides in this game, each with their own goal.
Basic mafia rules apply. For those new to mafia, I'll repeat them here, for your convenience:
The daggers are the "townies" in this game.
The "townies" are the innocent people and they have to lynch the mafiosi (in this game: the Ancient Vampire and his slaves) during the day. The mafiosi have to kill a set number of townies each night. When all mafiosi are lynched, the town wins. When all townies are dead, the mafia wins.
Each day or night phase will last approximately 24 hours. This may be extended or shortened due to real life circumstances of the host (that's me).
The townies have to decide during the day by voting who will get lynched. The person with the most votes, will be lynched.
Votes have to be made like this:
Vote : Andres
When you want to switch your vote, you have to do it like this:
Unvote : Andres ; Vote : TosaInu
Please remember to BOLD YOUR VOTES! UNBOLDED VOTES WILL NOT BE COUNTED! No exceptions will be made. Also, REMEMBER TO UNVOTE BEFORE SWITCHING YOUR VOTE; if you forget to unvote, your vote switch will be ignored.
Notes:
* In this game, voting "No Lynch" will be counted as an abstain vote.
* When a tie is reached at the end of the day, the naib (more on this role later) will decide to either a) lynch nobody; b) lynch one of those in the tie.
* regardless of your role, you are supposed to be active in the thread. Severe inactivity (no strict rule, but you can take not posting during 3 or 4 days as a basic rule) will be dealt with by WoG ("Wrath of God") which basically means that you'll be written out of the game by the host.
* breaking of any rule will also be dealt with by WoG and a handicap for your team.
II. Roles
Naib
The game will start with a day phase in which you cannot vote to lynch. During this first day, however, you'll have to elect the Naib.
The Naib will be your chosen leader. As long as he remains Naib, he'll have the following powers:
a) The Naib will direct the lynching effort. He will pm me how the lynch will happen (only requirement is that it needs to fit into the theme of the game (so no sharks with frickin' lasers), apart from that, anything goes) and he will also carry out the lynch (or order some other players to do the actual execution). In the event of a tie vote, the Naib will have to be pm me a) wich one (and only one) of the players tied for the most votes will be executed OR, if that is his choice, b) that nobody will be executed.
b) The Naib cannot be lynched.
c) The Naib cannot be night killed .
d) Each night, the Naib has to pm me the name of one player and his/her orders for the night. The Naib will inject this player with a secret serum and he/she will carry out one of the following orders given by the Naib: a) protect one player; b) kill one player. The kill order can only be given twice during the entire game. Note: if Naib 1 gives two kill orders and is replaced later on in the game, then the new Naib will no longer be able to give a kill order. The player injected with the serum will not know that he has been chosen. However, the injection will not prevent him from doing other night actions (e.g. if one of the slaves of the Ancient (see further about these roles) gets injected, then this will not prevent him from carrying out his other night action first). The Naib is not allowed to reveal the information about his night orders in private. Revealing this information has to be done in public.
e) The Naib will keep his function for the next 3 lynchings after his election. At the end of his mandate, new Naib elections will be held. So, Naib 1, elected day 1, will direct lynchings on day 2, 3 and 4; on day 4 there's a new election; Naib 2 (can be the same player as Naib 1) is elected on day 4, will direct lynchings on day 5, 6 and 7. As for his night abilities: Naib 1 elected at day 1, will give night orders for N1, 2, 3; Naib 2 elected at day 4, will give night orders N4, 5, 6 (so he starts giving night orders the night immediately after his election).
f) The Naib cannot vote.
g) The Naib is elected in the thread by an election. This has to happen into the following format:
Elect : Andres.
If you change your mind, you have to unelect first and then elect another player:
Unelect: Andres; Elect: TosaInu
These votes have also to be bolded. Unbolded will not count. If you forget to unelect, you're new election will not count.
The Ancient Vampire
Rumoured to be the first one receiving the curse in 4000 BC and to be imprisoned in the Sahara desert by Nikolaos and Alim, two of the so called Elder, at 1100 AD.
Before his imprisonement, The Ancient was the leader of all Vampires. After his removal of power, Alim and Nikolaos ruled the vampire society, until the dead of Alim, after which an era of Chaos started, which lasted until today. It is rumoured that "the Ancient" has taken control over the society of the cursed ones.
"The Ancient" is the equivalent of the "Godfather" (see: The Godfather I, II and III; a nod to Silver Rusher and GeneralHankerchief :bow:).
At the start of the game, instead of selecting the mafia at random, I will select the Ancient Vampire (who is nameless to you, but he'll receive a nice role pm and his secret name), whose job is to PM me with the names of two other players. They will become his slaves. As long as his slaves are alive, the Ancient will not kill.
Each slave will be capable of killing one townie. When both slaves are dead (and only then), the "Ancient" will be able to kill one townie a night.
Once the slaves have been selected, day 1 with the election of the Naib will start.
The "Ancient" may or may not have other night actions or secret powers.
(one and only one) Secret Role
It's secret...
III. Specific rules.
* The dead are allowed to talk in public and in private.
* The Naib is not allowed to do a post mortem reveal of night actions.
* The most important rule of all:
Have Fun!
IV. Special announcement.
My "career" as a mafia player started somewhere at the beginning of 2007, with Capo I, a game I joined somewhere midgame due to special circumstances :laugh4:
Ever since, the Gameroom has been my most favourite part of the .Org and I have many good memories about this place. Most people I would call friends here at the .Org, I got to know in this Gameroom.
Very much to my surprise, I was asked to moderate the Gameroom in August 2007. I accepted the request. It was an honour and a priviledge to moderate this place, but above all, it was a pleasure and a very fun experience.
Now, before y'all start thinking that I'm getting old and senile with all this rambling about the past, there is something I want to make public here at the .Org and allthough the Frontroom is the most appropriate place to do this, he Gameroom has always had a special place in my heart, so I'm doing it here.
Daggers in the Night will probably be the last large mafia game I'll host at the .Org for a (very) long while.
There's no need to worry, as the reason for this is a wonderful one. If all goes well (and keep your fingers crossed for me), I'll become a father at the end of September or the first days of Oktober. This will be the start of a wonderful and exciting new life, but also a period with not much .Org time for me and certainly not enough time to host a large mafia game. I'll still be around and posting, but my activity will inevitably drop.
Consider "Daggers in the Night" my tribute to the Gameroom and my goodbye (note: not farewell) to one of the finest and greatest places of the entire internet!

Well, I read the story, which I loved, but I skipped onwards after that, thought I'd digest the rules closer to the game being open for signups.
Having read the end though, congratulations on impending parenthood; I'm sure the baby's demonic contact lenses and charcoal robes are set aside for the big day, right?
Good to see your account is fixed :2thumbsup:

Gah, I was trying to be clever there, hoping you'd put that in.
Ok, here goes.
This will be the greatest game since Jesus beat Mohammed at hopscotch.
Andres brought me to the Gameroom with his excellent Scourge of Ephesus, I wouldn't miss this for the world.
I am to lowly to comment on such an epic game, it would be an insult for any mortal to even attempt it.
If I say good things about this game, will I get in your sig?
If I say good things about this game, will I get in your sig?
I have the maximum lines in my signature, but if you're comment is nicer than Sasaki's... :wink:

I agree with Csargo. Although in addition to saying that this game sounds like it will be awesome and will be the bestest, greatest, most awesomest game in the history of awesomest, bestest, greatest games OF ALL TIME, I would like to say that Andres is also awesome.

I'm willing to prostitute myself as a 4th reserve if all players forget about the game.
Since I'm going on a holiday with no ar almost no internet acces at the 7th of June, I have permission to start the game this Sunday (9th of May ) evening.
We'll start with a day phase in which you'll elect the first Naib (no lynch on Day 1).

Sacromonte - Day 1
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Daggers%20in%20the%20Night/P9150327.jpg
Early in the morning...
The daggers were gathered.
A centuries old bowl had been put forward and each dagger had a parchment and a pencil.
There were no ranks and no hierarchy today. There would only be discussion and at the end of the day, they would chose their leader.
Candles were lit and they started the centuries old rituals.
***
And... kick off! Game has now started!
Role pm's have been sent and a pm to announce the start of the game has been sent to all players.
It is now day 1. During day 1, you will elect the first Naib of the game.

I'm fine with that, but you have to remember that the Naib is there to decide on the manner of lynches, break lynch ties and protect (or willy-nilly kill, which isn't my thing as you may have gathered by now) each night... and they cannot vote.
So how'd they personally find the bad guys? :P

My humble apologies, lady Secura. The excitement of playing my first large game here is making me stupid. It won't happen again. Promise. :grin3:
Unelect: Beefy187; Elect: Secura.
Something I noticed when reading back over the game's rules when looking for information about the Naib:
At the start of the game, instead of selecting the mafia at random, I will select the Ancient Vampire (who is nameless to you, but he'll receive a nice role pm and his secret name), whose job is to PM me with the names of two other players. They will become his slaves. As long as his slaves are alive, the Ancient will not kill.
Each slave will be capable of killing one townie. When both slaves are dead (and only then), the Ancient will be able to kill one townie a night.
Once the slaves have been selected, day 1 with the election of the Naib will start.
Did anyone else read this as "I will personally select the Godfather rather than leave it to random.org"?
If that's the case... I think it might be a decent idea to shortlist people that might have been given that role by the host's choice (or, if you like, people who might be deemed unlikely to have been given it, such as newcomers) and perhaps assessing any ties each one has in terms of who they might choose as their slaves... previous games of this size are a good starting point, either here or over at CFC if that's the case.
Just a thought.

Does it not get boring for the Gameroom to see the same names put forward time-and-time again for these sort of roles? The Sasakis, the Generals, the Pizzas, the Tincows... there is no doubt that these players are highly-skilled, but when does the ordinairy man or woman ever get a chance? Why does it always have to be the same people?
I'm getting bored of seeing the same names alive at the end of games, the same names with power roles, the same names dictating the pace of play... more people need to stand up and be counted instead of hiding away in the shadows and leaving the percieved 'big boys' to take charge.
I put myself forward for precisely this reason; when subsequent elections take place, my vote will be given to those that I feel are capable but also that I feel deserve a shot at playing a role such as the Naib, an opportunity that they may not get the chance at again.

Aaannd after a half day of voting we can reveal the most inconsistent tally so far created in game room:
spL1tp3r50naL1ty: 1, (spL1tp3r50naL1ty)
Secura: 12, (Secura, Ibn-Khaldun, Methos, Romanic, Niklas, Renata, Kagemusha, Diana Abnoba, Scienter, Seon, Atheotes, Kukrikhan)
GeneralHankerchief: 1 (Beskar)
Beefy187: 6, (Beefy187, ATPG , Captain Blackadder , TheFlax, AVSM, Double A)
The Stranger: 1, ( Peasant Phill)
Sasaki : 4, (Sasaki, Tincow, Chaotix, White_eyes:D)
Greyblades : 1, (Greyblades)
Romanic: 1, (pevergreen)
Our voting expert Kage has concluded that so far the running for Naib has been a dirty race that Secura is leading. So far she has been able to keep her integrity, while the Sasaki faction has accused her heavily from using sexist tactics to achieve her appointment. The second in race is Beefy187, whose party has run in trouble as one of his key supporters have been associated in scandal, with accusations coming from The Stranger, that infact ATPG has somekind of scandalous affair with Diana Abnoba. This may cause uphevel in strongly religious supporters of the Beefy faction. Behind Beefy is Sasaki Kojiro and his alliance, but their dirty tactics may cost them the vote. Stay tuned as the tight vote will conclude some point of time our experts are not completely sure off. Good night and God bless you all.

Even more disturbing fact is that the nominee is openly displaying Kukri blades when appearing in public, so he might be a really violent character. A new tally:

And here we have the third runner in the race. So are you suggesting that indeed we are in danger of Alien/ Zombie invasion, or are you just claiming that Secura´s ways are far too peacefull to become Naib? Also how does sexism and pasifism mix together?

There is no Coalition, there are only those who will feel the Terrible Wrath of Kojiro last. He will kill us all in his gloriously brutal quest to destroy the vampires. Your support or lackthereof is irrelevant to his Blood War. Death is certain; it is only the time and manner of your death which remains undecided. Support Sasaki, and perhaps he will spare your life for long enough to enjoy a single sunrise!

Secura is like one of those wussy pacifists who try and make peace with the aliens/zombies at the beginning of the movie, and then are shocked when the body count spirals up or the building they are standing on gets blown up.
Also, she'll never kill beskar even if he's mafia (so she's also like one of those annoying guys in zombie movies who won't kill their friends even after they've become zombies).
You forgot, Sasaki is the guy who is in the building, secretly working with the zombies/aliens as an agent to further their agenda, as he gets to feel "cool" as the bad guy, as everyone dies around him and his big promises of getting rich and famous getting closer. Then he ends up getting betrayed by the zombies/aliens as they had no interested in fulfilling their side of the deal.
Secura is like one of those wussy pacifists who try and make peace with the aliens/zombies at the beginning of the movie, and then are shocked when the body count spirals up or the building they are standing on gets blown up.
Right, let's look at it this way; the Naib has two kills to use, and once they are gone, they're gone for good.
At such an early stage in the game, why bother wasting two kills which are probably going to end up taking down innocent townies? That's precisely the reason I won't vote for you, because it just seems as though you're going to throw those two kills around indiscriminantly on your suspects with crossed fingers... you did it in Shadow Fort, with limited success, what would change here?
In all honesty, the body count would rise just as quickly with you as the Naib, if not quicker; I may tred a pacifistic line, but you adhere to the code of a Harbinger of Death.
Also, she'll never kill beskar even if he's mafia (so she's also like one of those annoying guys in zombie movies who won't kill their friends even after they've become zombies).
If it came to my attention that Beskar was one of the vampires, that would be an instance where I would use the Naib's kill ability, no questions asked.
Also, if he turned into a zombie in front of me and it was a case of survival or my tasty flesh as the buffet... well he'd get several bullets to the face. :laugh4:

I wont vote for your election because you are very likely to follow a scorched earth policy. Maybe later in the game if you are proved innocent...

Ok, you can chose BEEF... bleugh, pork and chicken is way better.
You can chose Pacifist Vampire Babe, but everyone knows that wherewolves are way hotter since that stupid twilight horror production
You can chose, SASAKI HARBINGER OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION... which is totally prehistoric brainless violence... and no one likes that cuz now they can watch spartacus: the blood and sand. which is brainless violence with nudity. and sasaki cant offer that!
SO all thats left is THE STRANGER!!! vote for me and ill celebrate at MCDONALDS OR WHATEVER OTHER PLACE THEY SERVE CHEAP CRAPPY FOOD!

Nothing says true love more than being willing to shoot your partner before s/he turns into a zombie. TinCow knows I'd definitely shoot him in the head before he could feast upon my brains. :smitten:

12 minutes left. Should I change my vote?
Yes.
unelect, elect: Askthepizzaguy
Oh, you might say that Askthepizzaguy is too long-winded for this job. Some might say he's a bit of a blowhard, a windbag, a yakety yak. Well maybe that's true, but one thing is for sure, and that is I don't lie down on the job! I sit down on the job, because I have a fat *** and I hate standing. But that's beside the point, the point is that when you Elect Askthepizzaguy, you're not just getting a champion, you're getting a man of integrity. In all the games I've ever played, I have never lied. A pizza man does not lie; he composes. He says things which may never have happened. He lies. But he does not exaggerate!
Friends, womens, orgahs, lend me your votes, that I may sheathe my sword in the beating hearts of our enemies! I am one of you; if you prick me, do I not bleed? If you try to lynch me, do I not talk your ear off in self-defense? If you are at a loss for suspects, do I not fabricate pages-long cases against random people? If you buy me a bunch of enchiladas....
Oh wait, time is up already? I wasn't finished my candidacy announcement.
Election concluded. Will count votes.

Consider this this isn't my first time doing something like this. Which means I'm probably innocent. But this could be just to confuse you, and make you think I'm town, so BOO.
I acknowledge the fact that if the mafia doesn't kill me tonight, due to my lack of being a threat to anyone, I will probably be lynched with the reasoning that I wasn't nightkilled. And if I'm not lynched tomorrow, the mafia will think I'm a power role, and then kill me.
Sacromonte - Day 1 - Conclusion
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Daggers%20in%20the%20Night/P9150330.jpg
Late in the evening...
After the sounds of the heavy bickering finally stopped, the votes were counted. The name of the new Naib was announced: it was Secura. Many daggers, mostly female, nodded in agreement. Others, cursed and muttered something about the end of times and women in important positions. Another one kept rambling about strange eras and chaos, but nobody really paid attention to him.
The new Naib was the first to leave the cave. She took a deep breath of fresh air. Much needed, if you've been in a cave with smelly cavemen for too long.
For a moment, the elegant Naib allowed herself to forget the new responsibilities on her shoulders while she enjoyed the view of the Alhambra. She sighed. She was in need of a shower. And a haircut. And some new clothes to go by her new position.
Finally, after centuries of male incompetence, a woman would lead the daggers. She smiled and looked at the men and women standing behind her. She was confident that finally, the daggers would prevail.
"We've done enough for today, my dear friends. I suggest we all go to sleep now so that we can start to hunt the vampire who is among us."
The daggers bowed for their newly elected Naib and walked away, to the vibrant city of Granada.

so the only honourable thing to do is resign. QUIT! SUICIDE! IF YOU DONT SUICIDE YOU WILL BE LYNCHED IF YOU WILL NOT BE LYNCHED YOU WILL BE BITTEN IF YOU ARE NOT BITTEN YOU SHALL BE EXECUTED IF YOU ARE NOT EXECUTED YOU WILL BE VIGILANTED!!! SO YOU SHOULD resign.

Nah this is not about sex, but about gender and i have become in conclusion that the female gender is obviously superior or thats atleast what the sexist in me says.So i will be electing only females as our leaders from now on!:smash:
:bow: Is it atypical to have this feeling as a boy? :tongue:
Secura is like one of those wussy pacifists who try and make peace with the aliens/zombies at the beginning of the movie, and then are shocked when the body count spirals up or the building they are standing on gets blown up.
Also, she'll never kill beskar even if he's mafia (so she's also like one of those annoying guys in zombie movies who won't kill their friends even after they've become zombies).
You forgot, Sasaki is the guy who is in the building, secretly working with the zombies/aliens as an agent to further their agenda, as he gets to feel "cool" as the bad guy, as everyone dies around him and his big promises of getting rich and famous getting closer. Then he ends up getting betrayed by the zombies/aliens as they had no interested in fulfilling their side of the deal.
Gentlemen! These are fantastic metaphores/comparisons. I am enjoying the election frenzy!
Just make sure I'm actually a zombie and not just playing Civ IV.
:love: You know how to appeal to the CFC crowd :laugh:
26. autolycus
I believe Autolycus announced earlier in thread that he will be bust hosting his own game, and that you should send a reserve in.
And no, I'm not desperate (well yes but it's not the point); there are plenty of people before me in the queue and besides, I am leaving for Sweden (hellooou Sigurd & Niklas :tongue:) wednesday for five days w/O nets.
I'd be clapping my small hands if there was a spot for me when I came back, though :laugh4:
But who knows? :shrug:

I believe that Pizza may have a point about revealing them at the end of my term as Naib, to be honest, but if the town wants it out in the open at the start of each voting phase, so be it.
[No spam and ESPECIALLY no politics - GH]
Secura is the Naib Advisor... I keep reading it as naab, which is a way of saying n00b. :laugh4:
Wow, election day is a crazy day here. Big thread, I'll have to skim through all of it again to find out what was said.
The one thing I've picked so far is a suspicious last minute vote change! FOS: ATPG
But I'm glad I've won my elections. Usually in real life I always vote for the runner up or some big loser. :grin3: Hip Hip Hooray for Lady Secura!

Allrightt! As the day opens in beutifull Alhambra. Temperature is +70 celcius in the Shadow. A beutifull morning and we also have a best looking new Naib for centuries. Secura only increased her lead towards the end of voting and all the mud slinging from Sasaki and grazy talk from the illustrous The Stranger, couldnt turn the vote. Apart from GH supporting the universal chaos that is The Stranger. Sasaki couldnt gather more votes as it became clear that he is unfriendly towards media, by refusing to answer the questions of our news reporters.
So a new day and a new Naib. Who is talking about open government and other mambo Jambo that yours truly cant understand.As a peculiarity from the last part of voting, ATPG decided to withdraw his support to Beefy187.
Instead he claimed quote: "I have a fat *** and I hate standing."
Also he stated that: "If you are at a loss for suspects, do I not fabricate pages-long cases against random people? If you buy me a bunch of enchiladas...."
So all in all a great candidate with heavy arguments, but atleast in this election he could not challenge our new gorgeus Naib. Also while proclaiming his candidacy, ATPG didnt mention the sex scandal he has been accused in participating with even a word. After the elections we have had some whining, rage and other usual stuff and also talk about some strange political parties in countries ive never heard. All in all good morning for Sahara. Next Ali Al suleim al Hassan Kalifi will play traditional songs of the Greater Sahara Area. We will return with new news as we have new news to talk about. Good morning and Good bless.
