Warning: This is my very first time, either as a host or a player. However I am a big fan of the mafia games played in the past and I have learned the rules of the game.
With such a small group, I've given almost everyone a special ability designed to extend the game to prevent an early town or early mafia victory. I am considering revealing to everyone which character they are, but not revealing to everyone the special abilities of all the characters.
1. There is at least one scummy character, so no practical joke game here. There is an evil side and a good side.
2. There is something in place to prevent the end of the game when the scummy character dies, but the game is winnable by Town.
3. Town has a number of characters with special abilities. Nothing too extravagant; certain characters will be able to withstand a lynch or a murder attempt, for example.
4. You do not want to lynch certain characters. :devil:
5. You do not want to murder certain characters. :devil:
NOTICE:
I would prefer to be contacted via email rather than private message.
You may also contact me at windows live messenger at that same ID, and askthepizzaguy is my yahoo messenger ID.
I do not approve of monitoring other player's private messaging activities, as this is both unsportsmanlike AND unreliable. Double whammy.
If anyone becomes inactive or drops out, I would like to substitute a player in their place. I dont want dropouts to kill a fun game. They will take on the same role the first player had.

Police Chief Clancy Wiggum is investigating the grisly murder of the entire Simspon family. Well, the immediate family, anyway. Not counting the pets, or the non-canon characters, or the extended family, or the one-shot characters. But, you know, the main dudes. And besides, most of the pets have already been killed off by the show's writers. In an interesting sidenote, during the writer's strike....
GET ON WITH IT!!!!
...Right. So anyways, Wiggum is investigating the grisly murders of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie.
"Ok boys, search the entire residence for evidence of pizza, pastrami, hot dogs, or any member of the pastry family. And if there's beer in the fridge, I want it on my desk by sunrise."
Officer Lou:
"Okay chief. But you may want to take note that all of the victims appear to have been killed by pies to the face."
Wiggum:
"That's some good work, Lou. I am kind of hungry for dessert. What kind of pies are they?"
Lou:
"Three are banana creme pies, one is custard, and the final one is a cherry pie."
Wiggum:
"Awww... they didn't have any blueberry pies? I'm kind of hungry for blueberry."
Lou:
"I'd also like to point out, chief, that cherry pies are never thrown at people's faces for comic effect, because the cherries are usually baked inside the pie crust, whereas custard and banana creme pies are mostly pie filling, and therefore messier."
Wiggum:
"Okay, Lou, you've done some good work, but we aren't concerned with attention to detail. We're police officers, not mystery writers. The audience is going to get bored if you drone on and on about the kind of pies the victims were killed with. Certainly these details aren't clues which will be used later on to determine the killer."
Lou:
"Right, chief."
Wiggum:
"Now give me the custard pie and call it a night, Lou."
Lou:
"Don't you want me to collect and document the pies as murder evidence?"
Wiggum has already easten most of the custard pie;
"No, that's some good work Lou. Allow me to finish collecting the evidence myself. And have a pizza delivered, it's going to be a long night."
Lou:
"Sir, no pizza place is open at 4:30AM"
Wiggum:
"That's it, Lou, I'm demoting you back down to lieutenant."
Lou:
"I am already a lieutenant, chief."
Wiggum:
"That's some good work Lou. Less paperwork that way."

Re: Mini Simpsons Mafia (Game Thread)
Okay, we've had 10 take attendance out of the 11 remaining, and I will just assume the final person shows up. Though we won't have much of a game if that person turns out to be the killer.
Everyone, PLEASE try and find a replacement for our final person. I'll ask my friends. I can start this game right now if we have our final player.

sending everyone their roles now.
Remember, I prefer to receive communications by email. Everything else clutters up my pm box and also gives "telltale" signs you're sending in kills. Don't get caught.

I claim the role of Apu. Fos:whoever is Burns and Smithers, they looks most likely to be mafia, but you can never be sure I suppose.
And ATPG, El Diablo is still alive in Proscription mafia, and there are only 5 people left in that.

I suppose people do learn, El Diablo had been wrongly accused and lynched just because of his name... I'm glad the Senators had enough brains to let him live to that stage.
So... Hi-diddly ho, neighborinos! Because of my strong christian faith I really should have the devil burnt... but accusing an innocent man is wrong. I'll just pretend I don't understand Spanish.

I think we should concentrate on Fat Tony, Mr. Burns might be more eviler than Cruella de Vil, but I don't think he hold any grudges against the Simpsons... It's not like any one of them shot him in the past or something like that. :clown:

Once again my .Org name come to haunt me :laugh4:.
As always I am town (that is 6 games from 6) and the one time I was left to the end of the game the town won. So lynch me at your peril!!!
In this game I play a pretty nerdy kind nerd. Infact if I could figure out how to work this tri-combfibrulatorina that ATPG let me have I could tell who the serial kiiller is straight away....
*dang* thing work work.
:shrug: Vote Warmaster Horus
Also I don't think that ATPG would be so obvious as to have the "bad guys" of the Simpsons be the bad guys in here. In much the same way that the "bad guy" that shot Burns was...

Dont read if you have not seen that episode...
Oh I see the probelm the flux capasitor has its polarity wonky...
