Some players have asked me about the rules - for those of you who are relatively new have a read...

Rules:

Every night the Mafia choose someone to kill (via email) and the moderator announces the death. The player killed is out of the game, and may no longer speak about the game while it is still going on. After the deaths are announced, it is day.

The town (everyone alive, including the secret Mafia) argues about who they think is Mafia. Once they reach a majority for someone, that player is lynched, and his/her role is revealed. Then it is night again. The game alternates between night and day, killing and lynching, until either the Mafia are all dead, or the Townsfolk are all dead. The surviving group wins.

Special Rules for this game:

1) I will set a time limit for mafia murders and lynching - if the Godfather does not send an email stating who they wish to kill, I will randomly murder someone. Likewise if a majority is not reached by the appointed time limit, the person with the most votes gets the noose.

2) There will a variety of roles that will get revealed as the game progresses.

3) When you are dead, you are dead!! Under no circumstance can you post relevant information after you die, whether it is by lynching or by mafia . This may be the most important rule of all. It is OK to say something like Ouch, or Bugger, or Go town!, but leave it at that. This holds for the cops as well!

4) If you can no longer play, let me know and I will try to get a replacement for you. Do not commit suicide in the thread.

5) If anything is unclear, E-mail me please, s00thsayer2000@yahoo.com[/i]

waiting for one final choice....

[Soothsayer]

Little Sicily was once a place that was known throughout the world as being the finest place in the world to live. That was probably what made the mafia decide to live there.

Normally the morning routine in this town is simple - residents would drink coffee in the sun, read the newspapers and enjoy each others company. That was until today.

The scream of hysterical woman was enough to make everyone run to Spinacheaters house. Upon entering the room, it was clear for all to see that spinacheater had suffered a terrible murder. Not only was a knife stuck in his back but a bullet wound was in the centre of his forehead.

The inhabitants of the town searched his house to find a letter addressed to the mafia saying that he would happily spy for them.

Spinacheater was not the only inhabitant missing that morning. Pegasus was also missing. Further examination showed that he had been expertly assassinated with poison. Lucky for the town - for this inhabitant was clearly a member of the Cagliari family.

This is not a safe town to live in.

Spinacheater - mafia spy - has been murdered
Pegasus - Cagliari mafia - has been murdered

It is now day - please vote - deadline Wednesday 5 June (9.30 GMT)

Ack! Looks like we're up against the mafia, some sort of stabby person, and a poisoner. Possibly even two mafia families (considering that the one we have is named), but that doesn't make sense with only one spy...

Two families seem highly unprobable. Also note that that Soothsayer mentions the Godfather in the first post. So I think we have a mafia with 2 to 4 members, one of whom is dead, and a Godfather as their leader. We also have, or in more fortunate circumstances had, evil towni(es) . We have a poisoner and probably a Serail Killer too. Though this might just be a brutal method the Cagliari use, we'll know for certain next morning I'm afraid.
The bad guys are many, but die fast. Actually the fact that both "victims" were bad guys points to this.

[jesternl]

I'd say one family with 3 or for members seems most likely, and perhaps a masongroup as a counterbalance? And a serial killer to boot.. this could be hard.
And r0ver, we could've been lucky as well, and one of the wounds could be from a vigilante too.

[rOver]

Doesn't a vigilante get to kill only once a game? Or even if he can kill as often as he wants he wouldn't do it on the first night when killing one on the towns side is at least as likely as killing a bad guy. So I'm afraid it an SK or at best just part of the narrative. I fear it's the former though.

[jesternl]

Jalyn you're right.. we're losing sight of the positive things here... two down, less then ten to go
R0ver, If I was the SK, which I'm not, I'd use my ability the first few nights, in case I get killed, but I agree that the very first is too random .. but an assassin on the other hand...
Let's hope not...

[eillid]

I guess we'll find out more about what sorts of roles we have once people die. Which seems like a pretty awful way to have to find out, but it's seemed to turn out so far (although is the mafia spy a spy in the mafia for the town, or a spy in the town/mason lodge/whatever else for the mafia?). We know that there's at least one mafia family. It was named, as someone pointed out, so there could be two or even three, although that seems like a lot of mafia for a game this size. We'll find out for certain if we lynch a member of another family. So, who's suspicious so far?

A really pissed off ghost floats around little Sicily.

Why is the ghost of Pegasus pissed? First of all, she is dead. Do you have any idea how much it sucks to *finally* get to be Mafia and get killed the very first night? Before you even get to help kill a single person? Then to top it all off she gets labelled as a he. Add insult to injury, why doncha?

The ghost tries to throw bricks at random living residents of Little Sicily, but being an insubstantial bunch of psychic energy, she can but slide it across the floor, making a very annoying fingernails-on-chalkboard grating sound.
