I believe Quintus' reveal. I think we should lynch EF today, the write-up makes him seem more guilty than Fenring. If the game doesn't finish after the lynch, then I agree that Fenring should go.

Well, I think today's lynch depends on who's currently more suspicious. To me, it's Elite Ferret. If you are the vigilante, you can off Fenring tonight.
It doesn't matter so much, I think we've won the game either way.

Well, it wasn't Craterus before.
But I already alluded to the possibility of a turncoat. Any of you "confirmed" innocents could be guilty now, aside from the "impossible for town to win" candidates.
I'd widen your suspect list.

Good work guys...
You lynched the only nerd on Springfield that could have unravelled ATPG ramblings....

3 votes for Elite Ferret, I believe, one for Fenring.
Am I missing someone?
Bottom line, EF is getting lynched, and Fenring is being vigilante-killed, according to Quintus.JC.
Now comes the really fun stuff....
At some point today I have to do the Finale. Thanks to everyone for playing, and if you want to change your votes, now is the time.
Those of you who are interested, check my signature line for special new treats.

Beefy cannot be the mafia. I had doubt about Craterus despite the assurance from ATPG, but the SK's latest failed attack on him just about made him innocent. So I'll rid of Fenring while EF is being lynched.
QJC-Fenring
BEEF- Elite Ferret
EF- Fenring
FEN- Elite Ferret
CRAT- Elite Ferret
Elite Ferret- 3
Fenring- 1

"This is Kent Brockman with the Night Five Sexy Action News Report. The crowd has gathered outside the local Kwik-E-Mart to dispose of the hated Hindu menace they believe to be the mass murderer. As usual, they are carrying pitchforks, torches, and "Have a nice day" buttons."
Apu, firing shotgun at the top of the Kwik-E-Mart-
"You can all kiss my ass and burn in hell! Thank you, come again!"
Brockman-
"Apu Nahassa-passa-whatever is firing into the crowd with a deadly weapon. Perhaps this one was the mass murderer all this time. In this reporter's opinion, he was."
Apu-
"Did you ever stop to think I am defending myself from a murderous lynch mob, sir?"
Brockman-
"Mmmm.... nope. We're reporting for FOX News, it's not our job to be objective, just hold an erroneous, unwavering opinion."
Apu points the gun at Kent Brockman, but Deputy Police Chief Lou aims his sniper rifle carefully at Apu's head, and squeezes the trigger.
Apu-
"It's a good thing I believe in reincarnation..."
_____________________________________________
Monty Burns-
"Smithers, I do believe this dreadful Cold Duck is getting me a little tipsy. It's been so long since I've held a woman... it gets lonely here in this mansion."
Smithers-
"Uh.... you always have me to keep you company."
Burns-
"Yes, and don't think for one second I don't appreciate you, Smithers. I may sound a little harsh or demanding at times, but rest assured, when I die, you will inherit my entire fortune."
Smithers-
"Thats very generous of you, sir. But really, all I want is a great big hug and a kiss on the cheek once in a while."
Burns-
"Well, if I wasn't about to pass out drunk, I'd never agree to such a thing. But since it's your birthday..."
Smithers-
"It's not my bir... yes, yes it is my birthday. Hug me, sir!"
Suddenly, a window shatters and Ned Flanders arrives armed with a crossbow.
Flanders-
"Die, you godless heathen scum!!!"
Smithers-
"Nooooooooooooooo!"
A large bolt pierces Monty Burns through the chest, impaling his heart. He is thrown by the force of the bolt, and is knocked against a large medieval looking weapons rack. Several swords, axes, spears, and billhooks fall off of the wall, as well as a large sledgehammer. The sledgehammer hits the ground, and bounces like a basketball towards Ned Flanders.
Flanders-
"So, you faked an attempt on your own life... and an attempt against your heathen assistant. I was wondering how a man so feeble could even lift such a giant weapon. It was made of rubber!"
Burns-
"Of course it was, Charlie Chruchgoer! Why do you suppose he got up after being smashed in the head with a sledgehammer!"
Flanders-
"And you faked an attempt on yourself as well?"
Burns-
"I dropped a worthless, $24,000 antique vase on the floor and spent the rest of the evening drinking wine. I was amazed that silly news reporter even fell for it!"
Flanders-
"What I don't understand is why on God's green Earth you would murder the entire town one-by-one."
Smithers-
"I'll field that one... Mister Burns made a bet that someone could kill the entire town without being caught, or else he would owe me a Coke. I thought it was impossible, and I was nearly proven wrong. He didn't even tell me that he was the one who would be doing the murdering, until the very end."
Flanders-
"All this senseless killing over a can of Coca-Cola?"
Burns-
"Well, I did get to have the fun of killing the town for sport... I have a taste for hunting on safari, and the empty-headed animals in town made for perfect game."
Flanders-
"So, the Serial Killer is dead. At last, everything is revealed."
Smithers-
"Not quite..."
Smithers raises a Colt Python and splatters Flanders' brains all over the richly decorated carpeting.
Smithers-
"You killed the love of my life... Did you seriously believe I wouldn't avenge him?"
_______________________________________
The next day, Smithers and Moleman meet to discuss what happened to the Serial Killer, and vote on the final lynching. However, Flanders never showed up.
And Moleman was finally executed by a .45 to the brain.

___________________________________________
Roles:
Chief Wiggum- Police Investigator. Can identify the criminal. Townie.
Ned Flanders- Townie unless Lovejoy is lynched, then becomes vigilante.
Hans Moleman- Can never die by a lynching. Can only be killed by SK. Townie.
Groundskeeper Willie- 50% chance of strangling SK in self-defense. Townie.
Apu Nahassapeemapetilon- Can survive one attempt on his life. Townie.
Monty Burns- Serial Killer
Wayland Smithers- Turncoat. If Monty Burns dies, Wayland Smithers changes from Town to SK. Otherwise, aligned with Town.
Krusty the Clown- Falsely identified by Wiggum as SK, Townie.
Reverend Lovejoy- If town lyches Reverend Lovejoy, then Ned flanders becomes vigilante. Townie.
Moe the Bartender- Can make one person of his choosing drunk, thus rendering them helpless. Townie.
Professor Frink- 25% chance of blowing up SK in self-defense. Townie.
Fat Tony- Falsely identified by Chief Wiggum as the Serial Killer. Townie.
Notes: Ned Flander's role was originally Turncoat, but the moderator changed the role to vigilante to help Town. Smithers was a Turncoat from the beginning of the game. Wiggum was the Police Inspector. Moe the Bartender apparently forgot or decided not to use his special ability. When the Vigilante was created, Apu was also granted the ability to survive a vigilante killing, again to help Town.
Role PMs:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Final notes: I checked Mafiascum.net for the legality of allowing a serial killer or mafioso to waste his kill during the night phase, and instead pretend that someone attempted to kill them.
The answers were not unanimous, but roughly half of the responders agreed that in games where there are special theme games (check), or in games with role blockers (not applicable here, but check), such a thing might be allowed. and Mr. Flay said, quote: "It would fool Tracker/Watcher roles, for example. Better still if the Mafia have a Doctor on their side, or they can just "shoot blanks".
Some agreed that the idea was rare, but had been done before and was therefore not unheard of.
As the game moderator, I judged that given that:
1. There was only ever one active serial killer,
2. The serial killer's backup (turncoat) might be lynched or even accidentally murdered by the Serial Killer himself,
3. There were town roles dedicated to defending against a SK hit,
4. The presence of the Police Inspector,
5. The presence of a lynch-immune townie,
6. The presence of a one-time hit-immune townie,
7. The presence of a townie who could negate a person's role or trait "blocker role",
8. The presence of many hints to assist town,
9. The changing of Flander's role from Turncoat to Vigilante,
...Town had been given sufficient assistance to deal with the unusual nature of the serial killer, who decided to fake his own attempted death. I was certain that when a few nights had passed and he wasn't murdered again, town would get suspicious, especially when this happened on the first night. And a simple Wiggum investigation would have ended his career. But Town lynched Tratorix.
The cards were stacked in Town's favor, but a rare and controversial move by the SK gave him a believable alibi, and then Town began double-lynching themselves to death.
Out of five nights, the Burns character wasted two kills and was killed the final night. Burns only managed two kills out of 12. Smithers, the obvious assistant to Burns, was (unfortunately for town) investigated on night one and revealed to be Town. Which he was, until the final night.
You can get out your pitchforks and torches and lynch me now. I realize that some may feel that the faked assassination was unfair, however, I gave an impressive amount of hints to Town.
Here are all the hints I gave to help you along the way:
For your teeth-grinding frustration…. I mean enjoyment.
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
A very close, and controversial game. I hope you had fun and aren't too mad at me
And I hope you join The Simpsons Mafia: The Full Monty (large game). I promise that no one will be allowed to fake assassinations this time.
PS- It was all Fenring's idea.![]()

Please everyone read the hints section, so you know I wasn't deliberately trying to throw Town under a bus...
I'd appreciate some after-murder discussion. What are your thoughts on the game?
#Winstontoostrong
#Montytoostronger
Definitely one of the most memerable game I've played (not that I played many), it was great fun. And no, I don't blame you for losing at all. You've given us plenty clues, unfortunatly none of us was Sherlock Holmes. I was wondering after Craterus' innocence after you intentionaly emphaised so many times that someone's alligance might change. I never got the clues about Burns, the fake assasination wasn't that bad, we was dumb enough not to figure out that could be made to paint someone innocent (In the Soviet Mafia, which was hosted by Fenring. When I was the Mafia I intentionally missed my assassination attemp on Pevergreen in order to make him look suspicious, Faction Heir noticed it back then, so I guess that was okay). Anyway it was a great game, I don't mind the missed assasination, but we shouldn't allow too much double lynch next time (I am to blame, i know)
Thanks for Hosting Askthepizzaguy.![]()

Good game, thanks for hosting ATPG.
To be fair, I didn't know I was a turncoat until the last minute. And at that point, my kill choice was obvious.
My first Mafia game and I really enjoyed it(until I got lynched)
So thank you ATPG for asking me to join this!

Flanders has a question:
and the serial killer will deliberately avoid killing you. Why? I don't see any specific connection between Flanders and Burns.You are Ned Flanders.
Your role is town. Keep that a secret. Probably wise to not let anyone know you're Ned Flanders either.
One of the two sides in this game has a higher chance of losing if they lynch/murder certain people first. So do not let anyone know your role, unless you think it will really help your team.
By the way, if a certain character gets lynched, you go insane and join the other side.
So you are town for now, but if I send you a message, you become "mafia" and you can only win if town is destroyed. Dont let anyone know that or they might lynch you, and the serial killer will deliberately avoid killing you. Telling people your role harms your own team.
It's ok to say things like "hidely-doodily" and "I don't mean to be a bossy Betty, but..."
And you can make whatever good, wholesome references to Jesus that you like. People will assume that you're either Ned Flanders or a Ned flanders impostor. Maybe they will think it's suspicious and lynch you. Play Ned however you like, but just remember you're town, and you're also a turncoat if a certain person gets lynched. I'll let you know if and when you switch sides. Dont forget I prefer to be contacted by email if you need to contact me.
You were originally intended to join the Serial Killer when Lovejoy died. But I saw Town was in serious trouble, and I used my magical moderator skills to turn you into a Vigilante instead to help them out.
That is why he would have avoided killing you if he found out your role.

I still don't understand any of the clues in the Moe murder, none of them point to Burns for me...
Thanks for hosting anyway.![]()
Cheers ATPG. Good hosting (sorry for disappearing on you guys) - and I LIKE the clues in the killing posts. The fact that we did not get them is actually a good thing as well. If they are too obvious then it is game over too quick and if it is perfect it will throw slight suspicion on a player.
Good job - pity I wasn't as clever as my Character...

ATPG..........
Thank you ATPG for hosting the game.. Unfortunately Im getting a little work overload issue so sorry if I wasnt really active as I shouldve been.
Thank you townies for loving me soo much and ended up lynching me twice in one game. I hope I scored the record in Org somehow..
Especially a big thanks to Sarathos
(I shouldve survived the kill... Im invincible)
I would have been more active, but I never really got into my role as willie. I am bad at playing a drunk...
TosaInu shall never be forgotten.
You dont necessarily need to play your character, but if you did, you could always just talk with a Scottish accent.
I hope everyone joins the next game. I'm in the queue... and we need players. Aiming for 50, hoping for 80.
This will be an epic game.
#Winstontoostrong
#Montytoostronger
80...people...
Thats almost 50 people more than is good!
80...willl...be...an...epic...pain...in...the...ass
TosaInu shall never be forgotten.
Lol
I'll tell you what. If the game flops, you can say "I told you so". But judging from this game, there will be no flop. Don't miss it.
#Winstontoostrong
#Montytoostronger
ill join the next one!!!!
can you really find 80 people though...?
Excellent....you did well, Craterus!
Thanks ATPG for hosting!
