1.) Votes must be bolded and at the start of a line. If I don’t see it, it won't count.
2.) Unvoting is nice, but not necessary.
3.) Once a majority is reached, that person is lynched.
4.) If there is no majority at deadline, there will be no lynch for that day.
5.) Day 1 will have an approximated deadline based on when the game starts – it will be no less than a week. All following days will have a deadline of 10 days.
6.) Nights will have 60 hours maximum. Any night actions not submitted will simply not happen – the thread should be open 60 hours following a deadline lynch.

14.) Play to win.

The Master was sitting on the edge of a withered cliff on Mt. Zao. Mars shone brightly alongside the moon and stars. When a breeze blew a floating leaf into his lap, he opened his eyes with a smile, turning around to meet figures cloaked in shadow.
“The day that you find this orb you will no longer be seekers. I wonder if you will be able to face that fear.
I wonder if you will have the courage to stare into where the True orb resides….”
He removed a ball of stardust from the folds of his cloak. The swirls of colors were as nebulae in the miniature galactic sphere. Stars shot across the small cosmos, leaving beautiful comet trails. The size was bigger that his head and should not have been able to be concealed in such a way. As if he had pulled it out of the veil itself.
“You always babbled nonsense, master. Perhaps the power of the orb was too much for you, its driven you to madness. We have researched all the esoteric texts, we know how to contain and make use of it.”
A laugh erupted from the depths of the master's core. The mountains shook and the trees joined him in his bellows.
“I wonder how it will make use of you.”
A shadow darted forward, blade brandishing in an arc like the crescent moon above. There was a rustling of robes and wind, but no other sound as the master smiled down at his pupil.
“You…. Really are immortal? Why have you not shown us these secrets!?”
“It is not I that is immortal… It is that which is Real never dies.”
With that the master fell backward in an arc off the cliff. The orb floated up out of his hands and grew incredibly bright, the shadows scurried behind rocks, afraid their presence would be revealed. The orb split off into the four directions.
The crows cawed at dawn. The master was nowhere to be found. Scattered throughout the globe, practitioners of the Turtle Path awoke to omens and signs of all sorts of disturbance. Rituals were prepared, spells were cast, and others retreated to their sacred places for great Ceremony.
You all meet on the Astral Plane. In this vast array of worlds, you choose a neutral place. There is a Tavern, that opens out to the elements. The breeze flutters through. Mead is served by wisps and spirits that are bound to the safe haven.
You discuss the disappearance of the Master, the Orb, and the disturbances felt across the realm. Who present has agendas of their own?

@drealmerz take notes, not even beating around the bush on the soft

I think Dunnstral may be for highlighting what he thought was a soft in thread. Rather than, you know, taking it back to the scumthread and parsing what it may actually allude to.
I mean, he coulda done both, but my inclination is to think someone wouldn't bring up the same topic in two places. Maybe. I dunno. Maybe not.

Do you think scum would have any way to work off that... soft? I mean, you must, since otherwise--

also as town I promise to lurk relentlessly with flippant prod dodges, claim a cop guilty on some1 when I don't have 1, defend it based on meta, make fun of spyrella for heading the anti-meta campaign, avoid camn so she won't figure me out, do stupid things and then claim that they were part of super clever plot all along and cackle that scum fell into my brilliant trap and I meant to do that, promise to catch up and then never do so despite writing soliloquies in the speakeasy, declare my towniness, renounce my terribad play, befriend every1 only to get paranoid about them later and try to lynch them and vote any1 who calls me fat all in order to prove my mighty towniness cos this is the current site meta.
did I leave anything out
I have a guest in town until 1/4 so my cameo appearances might be sparse but I will try to post when I can.
