It was a little town on the coast of most humid Asia. To one side lay the sea, the most wonderful sea that bordered Asia. On the other side lay the sea, the most wonderful sea that bordered most humid Asia. On the third side lay the mountains great mountains of mountains the most mountainous mountains that man has set eyes upon, provided that man has yet to set eyes on the Himalayas or any of the other far more mountainous mountains. On the fourth side lay the most wonderful sea that you ever did see that bordered most humid Asia.
You might think that surely no Mafia would send people over such treacherous terrains simply to smuggle to or from such a little hamlet of no more that ten people. You would be right. What they might do on the other hand is to send bloodthirsty monsters over such terrain knowing that if not killed on the trip, or by the natives they’d at least be satiated for a short while and would hopefully die on the trip back.
And it all started on a most humid evening in most humid Asia...

Rules of the Game: (modified stolen from Bbmolla)
General Gameplay and Etiquette:
1. You may not quote private Moderator-supplied information (either real or fabricated) of any kind. Paraphrasing (for role claims, etc.) is acceptable.
2. There is to be NO personal communication outside of the forum postings unless your role PM specifically allows it. Mafia members may communicate at night and during the confirmation stage.
3. If you have a role with a Night action your choices are due to me by the posted deadline. If I do not receive your choice via PM or bolded in the quick-topic provided by the posted deadline you will forfeit your actions.
4. Roles with Night actions will not be able to submit an action on Night 0 (i.e. during the confirmation stage).
5. Any player with a Night action may instead submit a “No Action” PM to let the Mod know that you do not want to perform your expected action that Night phase.
6. As a general rule you should aim for one post every 48 hours, minimum, to keep the game moving.
Voting, Deadlines, and Player Death:
1. A simple majority of all living members must agree on one person for a lynch to occur prior to deadline.
2. Once you have reached a simple majority no further unvoting will change someone’s fate.
3. Once a player is lynched the game enters twilight until I post a death scene; all players including the one who was lynched may continue to post during twilight.
4. Please submit votes as: Vote: PlayerName or VOTE: PlayerName. Votes will NOT be counted if they are not bold! Obvious abbreviations or nicknames will be counted so long as they are unambiguous.
5. Please submit vote revocations as either Unvote: PlayerName or Unvote. Unvotes are not necessary before changing votes.
6. You may Vote: No Lynch - a simple majority of these vote types are required to send the game to Night phase without a lynch.
7. This game will have 3 week deadlines. At deadline, if there is not a simple majority of votes there will be No Lynch.
Miscellaneous/Mechanics:
1. Bold, blue text is reserved for the Mod. No invisible/small text is allowed, nor is cryptography.
2. If you have an issue/problem with the game, please PM the Mod privately. Do not post issues/complaints in the game thread.
3. The Mod may make mistakes - please point out any mistakes gently. Mistakes will be corrected where possible, but sometimes mistakes are made that cannot be reversed. These will stand as final to be commiserated over after the game.
4. Please bold all requests to the Mod so that they don’t get missed.
5. Prods of missing players will be issued automatically after 72 hours of no activity or upon request after 48 hours of no activity. A prodded player has 48 hours to respond or risks replacement. A player who has been prodded 3 times is subject to replacement without further notice.
6. Rule violations will be dealt with according to their severity, up to and including a Modkill.
7. If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period please post a notice to that effect in the thread. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
Here is the Role PM for a Vanilla Townie, at least one person has received this PM.

It was quite an ordinary day. The thirteen people gazing at the dashingly handsome man lying dead in the sand would probably disagree, but people die every day; death is no unusual occurance. Well any given individual only dies a handful times at most, and the death of someone so radiatingly brilliant cannot be predicted even by the greatest actuary but as a general rule deaths are frequent. That thought was of no comfort to the thirteen gathered even if they had thought it, which they hadn't, so grief stricken by the dead body lying afore them.
The fishing hamlet was normally peaceful and its residents wouldn't hurt a fly unless to use it as bait, but those the gods want to destroy they first make mad and the sight of the lifeless adonis certainly made them mad; lynching mad.
Day One begins now

@mod--RobertMontana also voted deadjoker with the proper format, so by my count, I believe my deadjoker vote was a hammer and no replacement is needed.
Thank you.

In most humid Asia, the thirteen of you went most crazily insane, and in murderous rage you went to grab someone. It is almost as if looking at the beautiful corpse made you feel less impotent, as if you could conqu- wait why did you know so strongly you weren’t impotent at this moment?
We’ll drop this point for one moment just like seven of you dropped the now catatonic form of Dead Joker into the firey fire that you had lighted. As you see the signed note of “Mafia Gooness” fall out of DeadJoker’s pocket you smile as you smell the sweet smell of success. Wait that’s the sweet smell of burning human flesh, you all rush to your individual homes to heave. Probably not the wisest course of action when there are killers on the loose but y’all really needed to vomit.
Night One begins now and ends in 48 hours.

Twelve of you went to sleep the last night. Twelve bodies are on the beach today. Twelve bodies looking across the sea in order to appreciate the startling sun rise, though normally the humidity annoys you and makes you inclined to murderous rampages, not a man amongst you could deny that the humidity helped make the sun rise an even more gorgous sight than it normally is, which is really gorgeous anyway.
With the dasterdly creatures seemingly no longer being aggressive was it right to kill in a world that has a sight so startingly sexy such as these sunrises? As if reading the minds of his eleven comerades one voice spoke with clear determination. "We must not allow these muttley monsters to destroy the sun thus leaving us in perpetual darkness (the moon cannot reflect what isn't there)."
The twelve of you agreed wholeheartedly with the sentiment and nodded your heads.
Although you can't quite remember when the wacky fiends has sun snuffing strength.
Nobody died! Day Two begins now.

In post 607, satire wrote:I just realized that if we have an investigative role (and we should) it means it must be one of the afk guys, which indicates we probably aren't getting a report.
@mod--Sorry to bother you with this, but can you please prod Synaesthesia? He hasn't posted in a while and I haven't seen him logged on, which means it's likely that he site flaked.
I prodded him daystart. With no reply I shall replace him now.

Baldanders repaces Horror effective immediately.
A lynch has been reached.
TuxedoMask wore a mask. Masks are scummy; or so you thought. Couldn't the mask hold the secrets that we all share, hide an embaressment like all men would be embaressed such as an inability to spell "embarrassment" or it that simply projection? NO! Thev question now is whether or not TuxedoMask was simply scum or whether his almighty shame about being a partial illiterate allowed less scrupulous fellows to project their evil scumminess on TuxedoMask. That masked man masking his true self not just with a mask but also a tuxedo.
[TuxedoMask was lynched. He was a Mafia Goon. Night Two starts now.[/b]

You awake refreshed and happy; again nobody is dead! To be honest, you barely give much more though to the villians than you do to a cockroach; or possibly even less a cockroach could survive a nuclear bomb it doesn't seem awfully like these scum could do that, now does it? You barely even give a second thought to the mystery of the mysterious man murdered in mystery cove (to be honest I'm pretty sure that it isn't actually a cove; but coves sure are mysterious) especially due to to a man you have found a new crush on denisatp* with his eyes so blue.
* Name has no relevance on the game. I could have just as easily said "Hibiki, Hibiki, oh with his eyes so blue - Hibiki, Hibiki, I've got a crush on you" or any other name.
So all of you wake up refreshed and what have you, ready to get on with your lives. It turns out that there's not much to do in most humid Asia next to most humid sea so you decide to finish what you started.
Nobody died Night Two. Day Three begins now.

My journeys to find my brother has lead me from the coldest, most highest peak to the darkest, dampest, most humid trough from the dampest sea to the crispest air. It was only at most humid Asia next to most humid sea. It was difficult to get here; nobody could cross those mountains with their energy intact and I wouldn’t have made the trip if I wasn’t reliably informed this was where what I sought was hidden by the old fortune-teller.
As I walked I heard a commotion and quickly hid in a bush in case whatever (or whatevers!) was coming was unfriendly. What passed me was a parade of twelve people all laughing spouting that one was scum. In fact they were point at one of them, though I must confess looked from scum to man, and from man to scum, and from scum to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.
It became significantly easier to tell once circumstances had changed and you could simply look for the fellow whose face had been smashed in.
Baldanders was lynched he was a Mafia Game. Game over town won!

Mod Comentary:
* At first I was going to commend the town for their good play but I've just read F62 and learnt the dark secret of some of you so I've decided you've got lucky.
* I can't really blame Badlander for his actions considering he did have a sub-atomic chance of winning when he replaced in but seriously, you can't wait a couple of minutes for the Roleblocker to claim a positive on you?
* This game was leet (or at least an anagram of the same) a thought I meant to put in the flavour but never had a chance.
* At ther end opf the day this game was won in the day by a better team that was roughly as better as the deaths show.
