Yes, I know it has only been 23 hours since the game opened. However, since I want to go to bed and there's not much happening here I'm closing it early. Deal with it.
Matches were arranged.
Doors were opened.
People were going "Oh... I'm... oh... oh." in that typical subsumed British way.
Spectators were unsure of when to eat popcorn. Some of them were famished, and started longing for a space monkey attack.
As darkness slowly shrouded the town, everyone was well aware that things were about to get interesting.
Night 1 begins now! You have 24 hours to submit actions!
(though I might open early if I have all actions by 9am EST tomorrow.)
As darkness slowly descended over the town, a ball of fluffy fur walked confidently down an ancient corridor. Soon, it heard the familiar sound of a bell in the distance. “Oh, it's the doctor”, it thought to itself. “Such excellent training I have given him - he seeks me out at mealtimes, no matter where I may be, just to get a chance to ring that precious bell of his.”.
Very soon, however, the feline realized something was wrong. There was a rhythmic rapping against the ancient stone floor that sounded nothing like the doctor's footsteps. The sound came closer... closer... Suddenly, the cat looked into a toothy grin and realized that while dinner was indeed served... he was the meal. Or possibly the appetizer.
Nearby, a small but well-dressed creature was making its way through the woods. Suddenly, it heard a rustling among the leaves. All its instincts, both natural and aquired through training, kicked into overdrive. Lightning fast, it drew the trusty service pistol. “Who's there? You got a banana?” it called out.
A single shot rang out and a small body slumped to the ground.
A man was careening at dangerously high speeds down the narrow city streets, with pedestrians throwing themselves left and right out of his way. However, there was one that would not budge. Delighted, the speedfreak opened his mouth.
“Cia....”
He did not even notice the blow that ended his life before he could finish that single word. Newton's law of motion is a funny thing though: The scooter did not even notice that it's driver was now missing a head, and continued on its merry path until it crashed into a brick wall.
The crowd was stunned. A pudgy man wearing a bowler hat saw his chance and leapt atop the assailant's back. However, none of the myriad nerve-pinching techniques he knew seemed to have any effect whatsoever on the raging warrior, and he was soon flung from the mighty man's back, and had a sword thrust through his chest.
Once the spectators had recovered from the shock of seeing two men brutally murdered, they decided to dig out the driver's body among the rubble and retrieve his head. However, once they did they made a final ghastly discovery.
“Oh my god! They killed Jeff!”
“You bassteds!”
When melancholy set in, they started remembering all his great deeds.
“He invented fire, you know. Named it after himself, too.”
“Yeah, and he programmed all the computers in the Pentagon!”
“Remember when he became secretary general of the United Nations?”
“Oh yeah. Was that when he ran the Death star?”
“I don't think he ever did that.”
“No, maybe you are right. I may be thinking of his brother. That anthrax mail order firm he used to have was not his best idea though”
And so on and so on and so on. The citizens of the town were so busy remembering all of Jeff's great deeds (a few of which might actually have happened), that they couldn't concentrate properly and get someone lynched.
CaptainNifty is dead! He was Pavlov's Cat (Town), a failed first experiment.
hail_eris is dead! He was a monkey with a gun (Town), Charlton Heston's worst nightmare.
normalview is dead! He was Jeff Jeffty-Jeff (Town), avatar of all of Jeffiness
Silver Lantern is dead! He was Bailey (Mafia), silent but deadly henchman!
Day 2 begins now! Due to the death of Jeff, there will be no lynch today. Votes cast will not count. The thread will be open for a few hours for discussion before we go into night 2.
<----This guy is Neutral. Noah, aka Sean Connery, at your service.
My role is reminiscent of the one I played in Princess Bride. Send in a list of players, get told how many are animals. I sent in everybody last night and got 6. Two died, so that means only four are left in the game.
If anyone would like to volunteer and say "I am an animal," that's where I can come in.
