You’ve come across some very interesting information regarding a high-stakes job that needs to be pulled. Very little is being said about the job, in fact, nothing is being said at all. Word of the job is very tight, as if the employer doesn’t wish it to be known. The job will take a minimum of three weeks and you’ll be paid for your time and you earn 10% of the take.
Players:
Diamondeye
CCRunner
atheotes
Subotan
Secura

Beskar - Captured by the City Guard!
Intrigued by the looks of this.
Never seen you host before Methos
I'm IN
though you may want to include some more information about the game...
What is this one?
If its Mafia then no thanks but if its something else then Im keen...
All 'players' will receive a pm detailing where to meet and asking for bank account details so that he can transfer the 10% to your account.
Haha, no, I believe Methos meant this as a "Small Mafia Game", but he has yet to learn his wings on this forum.
Methos, could you post a confirmation of this as well as some description of the game?
Also you might want to edit/have a mod edit in the "small mafia game" tag...
Yes, its a mafia style game with seven players. Sorry, my mistake. I intend for the first game post to be more informative. It's true that I've never hosted. I'm starting small to get my feet wet and will work up from there.
It is actually mini-mafia game, not small-mafia game.Quote:

Small games needs to be put in the queue with the other small games (8-17) players. Mini mafia is the correct term for this game.
I have added a "Mini Mafia Game" tag as you requested Methos.
Bump.
Hey fellas, it's a 7 person mini mafia. There's gotta be interest in this. The worst you can do is seventh place! Isn't that worth signing up for?
Count me in :bow:
Methos, you have only six spots marked in the Players section...
Perhaps make the "players" line stand out with a B, U tag.
Alright, I'm in
Hi Methos!
Will be glad to do my part in helping you get your training wheels off, so to speak. Count me in!
....And MY Axe!!!
(In)
We're still one person short. Assuming someone signs up, I'll start this first thing tomorrow morning. Character roles will be random and the opening post will be more informative.
Come on, one more signup so we can get this game off the ground!
We have cookies! :3
I am going to expect your cookies from you now, Secura.
In.
Excellent! I'm just getting ready to go to bed, so I'll start this in the morning. Just curious, since this is a mini-game, am I supposed to create a game thread, or do we just play the game in this thread?
Just play it in this thread. I'm pretty sure that's the procedure at least
My cookies bring all the townies (and mafia) to the yard...Quote:

After all, you were thieves, this was second nature. Yet you quickly learned why. The city of Torn was controlled by an accomplished thief, known only as The Master. He has controlled all criminal aspects of Torn for over a decade and every outsider knows not to pull a job in the city of Torn without his approval. Yet, that's exactly what this job was. You now knew why such delicate care had been taken to get thieves from outside of Torn and to make sure that none of you knew each other. You were doing the unimaginable and pulling a job underneath the very nose of the Master himself! The risks were great, but the rewards were even greater!
The job started off too good. Everything was going to plan, perfectly and this had everyone worried. There was always some sort of problem, yet this job had none. You had managed to sneak past all of the guards with ease, disable every trap and alarm, both magical and mundane, in record time. You had the loot in hand and were just turning to leave when you all heard something skid across the floor. As you glanced down you notice it was an alchemical flash bag. You reflexively turn away as the alchemical mixture detonates, shattering nearby windows and throwing many of you to the floor! As the lot of you are recalling the emergency escape plan, you come to the realization that the alchemical flash bag had come from someone within this gathering of thieves!

There will be both a day and a night phase, though that doesn’t necessarily mean its that time of day. Night phase is merely what is being done behind the scenes where the rest of you can’t see what is going on. You may still talk during the night phase, since your group will still be attempting to escape.
Role PMs will be going out shortly. Let the game begin...
I've sent out the role PMs. Every player should have received a PM. If you didn't receive one, please let me know. Also let me know if you have any questions. Thanks and enjoy!
We're currently in 'Night Phase' then? :3
Yes, it's currently the night phase. The update will be at noon tomorrow, central time. It's currently 11:44 am my time.
Morning Update
After the detonation of the alchemical flash bag, you all knew you were in serious trouble. The explosion was deafening and add to that the sound of shattering glass, you knew the city guards would be arriving any moment. There was a sewer access located in the basement, but it would require you to flee towards the far side of the building first. Moving as quickly and silently as possible, you head towards the sewer access. As you pass one of the outer walls you notice an exterior door that wasn’t mentioned when this escape plan was first discussed. What’s even more worrisome, is the door is partially ajar. Turning quickly, you head straight for the basement stairs, your every sense now alert for whomever had joined you.
The commotion in the courtyard was now very obvious and you could tell that the city guard was quickly building up in force. You needed to get out of here and quickly! As you rounded the final bend near the stairs there was a second flash and you all became temporarily blinded. Blades came to hand from unseen pockets with almost immediate reaction and the sound of steel on steel was easily apparent. Luckily, the guards had been too eager and the effects of the flash had gotten some of the guards as well. The guards were no fools, they knew they were at a disadvantage in these tight corners and we’re hesitant to advance without help.
In the brief hesitation of the guards, Diamondeye noticed the large mirror upon the wall and with a quick leap and deft hand, Diamondeye brought the mirror crashing down between the guards and yourselves. You all break out into an all out run towards the basement, quickly moving down the stairs and reaching the room with the sewer access, only to find that it isn’t there. After locking and barring the door, you all begin to spread out, searching the room for the access. You quickly came to the conclusion that the owners of the building had laid a false floor to conceal the access. You all began removing the false floor as fast as possible, as the guards arrived at the door. False flooring was flying everywhere as you searched for the access, while on the other side of the door you could hear the guards demanding that someone grab something that could be used as a battering ram, while another guard began slamming his shoulder into the door. Just as Secura hollered out he’d located the access door, the guards broke the door down. It was at this point that the honor of thieves, or lack of it, was all too apparent. None cared about those around them, it was an all for yourself. Some drew blades, some dove for the sewer access. Though Beskar was a thief, he was also exceptional with a blade. Only two guards had entered the room and one of them appeared to be the one who broke the door down, as his momentum caused him to fall prone of the floor. Beskar’s blade came out of nowhere and the standing guard came to the realization that his bowels had been opened up and his innards were falling out. He fell backward into the doorway, blocking the other guards from entering. It was a perfect maneuver and one that would give the thieves all the time they needed to escape. As Beskar began to turn back towards the sewer access a small throwing dagger struck him just behind the knee, bringing him to the ground. The pain was intense and for a moment he was dazed. The prone guard quickly grabbed Beskar and with his guantlet he struck Beskar upon the head, turning his dazed look to that of someone who was unconscience. The rest of you didn’t wait around to see what happened next, you dropped into the sewers leaving Beskar to his fate.

It is now the day phase. Tomorrow I’ll be out of town during the update, so it’ll be several hours late. Before I post the update, I’ll state that I’m getting ready to do so. Or would you all prefer I wait until Sunday and give you an exact time?
Yes, the update is two hours early, but I had everything I needed, so I didn't feel the need to wait.
Just a disclaimer, when a players name was needed for the update, I used random.org to pick which player it was. I will continue doing so throughout the updates.
Just post an update when it suits you best, Methos. :3
