Sasaki's argument started to appeal. I'd've changed to YLC had I been on earlier.

Thermal is correct.
If God is great, and if God is good, why can't he change the hearts of men?"

There are times when mafiosi behave "over the top" as a sort of reverse-english ploy to be anonymous. I admit that is the exception, not the rule.

Uh oh.... There goes the neighborhood :(.
Sasaki Kojiro was sitting at home, checking out what was on TV. As it turns out, not a whole lot. Sure, tonight seemed to be some big Dr. Who thing, but he hated that show, so he eventually settled on some good old fashioned rugby. Brushing the old cat hair off his shoulders, he had just gotten comfortable when the doorbell rang. Grumbling, Sasaki got up to answer it. He swung the door open and to his amazement, there stood a big blue fox. She was on her hind legs and was posing seductively. She slowly walked past him and made her way to the stairs, stopping at the bottom and giving Sasaki the best "come hither" look he had ever seen, and he'd seen a lot of them on his TV. He followed this foxy lady, or was she a lady fox?, up the stairs into his bathroom, where she turned on the taps in his bathtub. Complying with her wishes, Sasaki lowered himself into the tub, after discarding his clothes, and sighed at how good the water felt. His mind went blank as the foxy lady gave him the best massage he had ever had. He was so relaxed, he didn't hear two men grunt and stagger their way up the stairs, and into the bathroom. The lady's hands went down past his shoulders, his biceps and elbows and to his wrists. Sasaki was shivering, anticipating the feeling of her fingers on his, but instead he was treated to the cold feeling of steel around his wrists. He opened his eyes and saw that he had been handcuffed to the taps. Silently, Sasaki cursed having such elaborate taps, and so far apart. He could move upward from a sitting position, but he couldnt get out of the water. Finally taking notice of the two men in the room, his face did not turn to horror, but puzzlement. The two men had brought in a high powered portable air conditioning unit. Laughing to themselves, they turned it on full blast and pointed it at Sasaki. He died of hypothermia before the sun rose.
Scienter was walking along the boardwalk, enjoying the sea salt and spray, the smell of the ocean and the feeling of hard word beneath her feet. Up ahead, she spotted some street performers, knife jugglers. Having grown paranoid, she put away her little notebook and turned to run away. What she in fact did, however, is fall on a bannana peel. It was a comical sight to others, but Scienter managed to do a double front flip and smack her head so hard on the wood that she died immediately. The two street performers walked over to her. Nudging the body with his foot, the taller one said "Why'd you have to bring the monkey again?" The monkey didn't seem to take that too nicely, he scampered down off the shoulder of the shorter one, onto the body of Scienter and starting jumping up and down, screaming. What shamed even the knife jugglers is when the monkey decided to add banging his cymbols together to the odd dance.
Two men were standing on the beach, not far from where Scienter would die a bit later that night. Enjoying the last glimpses of the sun and laughing about saving daylight, they drunk from their beer cans whenever there was a pause in the conversation. There wasnt a lot of conversation. After an hour or so, one pulled out a portable barbeque and set it up, starting to fry up a delicious dinner. A pedestrian smelled the food and walked over and said hello. He would stay there for quite a while, hearing amazing stories and being careful to stay away from trees on his way home, he was afraid of things dropping from them now.
The scene was the hottest nightclub in town. Hot may not have been the best word to describe it, it featured a few middle aged people sitting down and having a nice chinwag. In a corner, GeneralHankerchief sat alone, drinking his favourite beverage and mentally calculating the odds of his favourite sports team winning next weekend. He was, quite understandably, annoyed when a man tipped over his table and shouted at him. "You're here to what?" GH asked. "I said we're here to kill ya, you dirty mongrel."
"We?" inquired GH.
The man looked around but could not see who he was looking for. "Oh...sorry to bother you sir, have a nice night."
He left without further comment.
In the centre of the nightclub a man stood talking to a man with a few cuts on his hand. They talked long into the night and by the end of it, were best friends.

The townspeople gathered at what was now the usual spot and were greeted by an unsual sight.
"Excuse me, my name is pevergreen, and I carry a bit of bad news!"
"It seems that we managed to accidentally kill our own beloved Queen yesterday. Yes, I'm sorry to say, Queen Chaotix the second is no more. I decree today to be a day of national mourning. You are all to return home, and I shall see you upon the morrow."
There were few tears, but everyone returned home.
It is now Night 3. Night will end in 23 hours, 34 minutes. (Midnight, Tuesday 20th April GMT +10)
(Yes the day phase is skipped)
Bingo! After yesterday's vote I was given a cat by someone. Apparently it's some kind of hot-potato type role-block. So, I passed it on to YLC last night to block him. In the write-up, we see an attempted hit on GH fail because someone's partner didn't show up. Looks to me like YLC's claim of having a partner is correct, but that partner is a mafioso, not a mason.
Vote: YLC
That's great and all, but we appear to have skipped the day thanks to lynching Chaotix and gone straight to another night.
That's ok, we can name and shame all the people who voted poorly yesterday.
And I try to make it easy for everyone, by bolding what phase it is.
I've been doing it for at least a year now.
Anyway serious mode:
As the townspeople returned to their homes most walked in groups, discussing their favourite way to eat crumpets in the morning, but one drifted down to the morgue.
The person found a body and performed basic CPR. If anyone else had of been in the room, they would have been thoroughly confused as to why the person was giving CPR to a dead person. After a few minutes, he stopped and sat in a chair, looking quite pleased with himself. He was not at all amazed when Winston Hughes gasped in fresh air, through pale blue lips. Winston was dressed and taken home, and they spent a lovely day together, rejoicing in the miracle of life.

Why is this in another post and not in the earlier one? Because while sending out result PM's, I discovered I missed this action.
So here it is. I'VE DONE IT BEFORE, DON'T HATE ME.
22 hours, 58 minutes.
Ah, so now it's day!
Well then, this'll be a long night :\
- wait, NOW I'M CONFUSED.
I think it's still night. He hasn't changed the original post.
Winston isn't listed on any of the lists anymore, so what is he now?
A zombie. Runnnnnnn!!!
No wait, wrong game. Silly me.
If anyone gets a cat, send it back to YLC I guess, if it really is a roleblocker.
The cat does not roleblock instantaneously, and I can confirm as such. Instead, it role overwrites, meaning I become "the care taker of wee sean", and lose all of my other abilities.

That cat was in the first inishmore wasn't it? I think if the serial killer didn't find it he went on a rampage or something.
This cat is different, I think. We haven't seen evidence of a serial killer that needs his cat yet.

No, it does not roleblock until after I obtain it, I don't know how to explain it. No, I am still not revealing ANY mason, and if it means I die for it, so be it.
Also, please, please, credit me with some insight and intelligence. It's also clear in the write up that there was no block, just an absence of a partner.
