    Trust me, I wouldn't have picked -man as a character.

    I just checked the rules, and it only says I can't reveal in private, but I can reveal publicly. Since I will be honest, I haven't paid much attention to the game due to the confusing round end times and the fact I didn't have night actions, I was mainly inactive. I will just post my role pm, most likely get me night killed, but it would be better than an active townie/power-role dying.

    Man Chong, General Who Is Mighty

    A talented advisor and general, you had been recommended to Cao Cao by Liu Ye. You showed your worth when you brought over Xu Huang, which has been tremendously helpful in Cao Cao's drive to success. Your worthiness doesn't exhaust there, as you have also done service spying in the campaign against Cao Cao and you have frequently been called to advise the Prime Minister on military matters. These rumors have been quite strange, and you are unsure what to make of them. Phreaps listening closely to what the other advisors say might give you an idea if someone did indeed write the protesting papers or not.

    ((You are a regular townie))

    Victory Conditions: Kill every mafioso to win.

    Have fun! :P

    The bolded sentence doesn't fit in there unless the previous sentence describes the rumors.... what did you cut immediately before it?

    Nothing. I didn't need to cut anything out. That is the role and exact write-up Jolt sent me. I could obviously screenshot it, but the rules forbid that. :shurg:

    If you want to tell the host he did a bad role PM, go ahead. I haven't touched it.

    It could be a reference to the openng post which talked about rumours.
    The memos were written with very aggressive, borderline mutinous, and erudite language, which made it seem like it was written by one of the more intelligent men. This gave way to rumors as to who was writing the circulating papers. Of course, the soldierly, began pointing fingers at the original staff, that they were dissatisfied with the importance that the Prime-Minister was giving a newcomer, and that they were becoming mutinous.

    Maybe - my PM is very similar to yours and contains that line, but it explicitly says that I'm rumored to be upset with Cao Cao for accepting the newcomer. I believe your PM is legitemate.

    I didn't realize we had such a detailed outline provided to us by Jolt, all that stuff I wrote was from unrelated sources. So Jolt explicitly mentions Xu Shu and Pang Tong in his first writeup. That leads me to believe Sima Yi (Sprig) + the other guy are a second mafia unrelated to PT & XS. So.....scratch what I said about Jooray and ATPG being innocent for killing Khaan.

    I'll still happily vote off a lurker (Subotan), but now my list of innocents is down to FH and Beskar.

    FH - what leads you to believe AVSM is innocent?

    Why not? I have voted correctly like a good little townie based on both mafioso.

    No ham, pepsi.
    They make deli slices of frozen pepsi now? Awesome!
    You also need to purchase a small freezer for storage of your pepsi.
    It runs on batteries. You'll need a few.
    Uhh, I guess I won't have pepsi then. Do you have change for a twenty?

    I should inform you guys that I am under a lot of stress due to a bucketload of essays I have to do in several days. On account of that, I forgot to check who missed two votes in a row.

    As such, I can inform you guys that Subotan's non-WoG is not on account of him having a role or not (I have threatened in the beginning people with important roles), but because I forgot. Regardless of that, if he doesn't vote this Day, I will WoG him. Also, make no mistake, I will lynch Townies, Pro-Town and Mafia alike if they fail to vote twice in a row.

    In that case, Unvote: Subotan, Vote: ATPG

    There have clearly been 2 discreet group of night killers. One was Pang Tong + Xu Shu
    The other was Sima Yi + his partner.
    This is clearly seen, and yet ATPG denies the simple logic.

    The host just told us that Subotan has not been sending in orders at night and will be WoG'd tonight! You're throwing your votes away.

    Sprig - since you were lynched, we've only seen 1 person go after FH - how do you explain that?

    You're well aware why - you sneaky man you. Why attack with two people when you can attack with one. It also gives the nice illusion of there only being one left.

    Sorry to dispel any cover you were hoping to make.

    Sorry guys, but I've been really busy at the moment, with University applications and the sort. And because I got behind on this, I felt too guilty and shameful to post in this thread; making it worse

    This is essentially the same situation I was in. I'm just a simple townie, so I didn't have much to do. If you'd want, I can reveal my role pm.

    Just in time to avoid the WOG, eh?

    I'm a terrible lynch, bottom line.

    And no, I'm not going to save myself. Otherwise you'll just vote me next round. I've done good work this game, and if you ABSOLUTELY have to kill me, so be it.

    I take same approach to Mafia games that I do to real life. Get things done in the last possible second. Heck, I had parent's evening tonight, and I was finishing a Maths assignment that had been in for that day seconds before my Maths teacher called me in

    The Red Phoenix - Day 6


    As the council reconvened, this time no valuable information was drawn by Faction Heir as he was attacked for the second time. Due to the lack of tacit evidence, the council quickly enbroiled itself in the usual accusation flinging, this time with the various advisors trying to make sense. Some argued that the most silent of advisors were probably the culprits as they did not wish to contribute anything, lest they might have a slip of a lip and incriminate themselves. After Cao Cao said no such thing as to be an incriminatory acusation, the council then turned mostly towards Askthepizzaguy, who according to the council, was unable to explain several things regarding his past nights. Liu Ye argued that upon closer inspection, the council could see that he was innocent as he himself had been attacked, but his arguments were shrugged off. As the council draw to a close, Cao Cao called out Liu Ye "Liu Ye, how do you dare to try and work against all of us, after all I did for you? Truly you have no sense of loyalty, and as such, it is only better that you be put to death before you harm us further." Without further ado, Cao Cao motioned for the lictors to eject the advisor and put him to death. Liu Ye said little, apparently resigned to his fate "This is all irrelevant, as now I shall have to take care of hordes of zombies and battling survivors in a foreign land East of here, beyond the Grand Sea." The council was dumbfounded about the non-sense Liu Ye just uttered as he was dragged out, and they knew thus that their half-crazed fellow was dead when they heard steel connect with flesh.


    Liu Ye, Inspector of the Han Army, has been executed.

    Shortly afterwards, Cao Cao dismissed the council.

    One amongst those still alive was literary prodigy Subotan. Unfortunately, and quite contrary to his superhuman abilities, Yang Xiu had remained quiet for a long time in the council, as he was coming out for the third time in a row without speaking, he met upfront a man clad with a yellow robe, and addorned with a yellow turban, he spoke to Yang Xiu as if the heavens were crashing down on the Earth and as if a mighty wave swept through everything with titanic force. "You have been deemed unworthy of such a high responsibility of State, Yang Xiu." Yang Xiu was thus terror-stricken, and could not move out of fear. The figure's eyes turned completely white and he began chanting something. The sky, which was clear that day, turned deep grey in a few seconds, as clouds drawed near. Cao Ren, noticing the scene, quickly ordered soldiers to cut down the intruder, which Cao Ren recognized as a yellow turban. But the soldiers came to late. Within a few seconds after the clouds had gathered, the figure let out a huge shriek, which coincided with the fall of lightning bolt which desintegrated Yang Xiu into a thousand tiny bits. The soldiers fell to the ground dropping their weapons, such as the quake created by the crash of the bolt into the ground. It was followed by a blinding white light for some seven seconds. When everything was visible once again, the mysterious figure had disapeared, and all there was left of his presence was a 2 meters deep crate and Yang Xiu's pieces splattered all over the emcompassing area.



    Yang Xiu, Clerk of Transportation Supplies, has suffered the Wrath of Zhang Jue.

    Soon however, the advisors returned to their duties and when the sun died down, returned back to their tents.
