General Mafia rules, stolen from myself and other people:
1) A full writeup of the rules can be found here: http://www.mafiascum.net/
This game will be more complicated than what's described there, as nearly everyone has some sort of 'special thing' about them. Doesn't mean everyone has a night power, but you never know...
2) When you vote, please do so by saying Vote: [Player] in bold. If you wish to change your vote, please say Change Vote: [Player] instead. If you wish to leave your vote with another player, say leave vote with [player]. You cannot leave your vote with someone who already controls another player's vote.
3) You may NOT send a PM to anyone about this game unless your role explicitly says you can. This is cheating.
4) Do NOT edit your posts in this thread. This is cheating.
5) Please do not copy-and-paste anything from any PM I send you to the thread. This is also cheating.
6) Please do not post in this thread after you are killed. While not cheating, this is rather tacky and leads to a cranky moderator.
7) It is in your best interest to try and post when you are able to do so.
8) Phases are 24 hours long during the week and 36 hours during the weekend unless stated otherwise. That doesn't mean you have to use all that time though... the sooner I get night actions the sooner the game can reopen.
9) If you do not send in a night action I will not be happy. Odds are good you will not be taking an action, though I may randomize your target if it suits my purposes better. Miss two night actions in a row and I may start looking for a replacement.
10) You will only be told your action failed if you are expecting a return PM.
11) If two or more night actions conflict, the action submitted first gets priority.
12) Remember that this is just a game. Have fun and behave.
Important things to note (Taken from Magnito, of course):
1) While I did take a lot of roles that the mods suggested, it was not always possible to do so. Therefore, some of the roles were not the suggested one. Because of this, voting for someone because they claim a role from your game that you did not submit is not a valid reason.
2) There is not a strict 1 character per game policy. Some games may have more then one character. Therefore, voting for someone because they claim a character from a game that is already represented is also not valid.
3) Some roles had to be modified to make them work. While there are some roles that are identical to how they were, some are definitely not.
4) Every role is written a little differently because they are similar to the original roles. Therefore, while 2 people may have the same win condition, it could be phrased very differently.
5) I apologize in advance if characters in this game act out of character. I am not familiar with all the games, so I may not get the characterizations right.
Game mods. You are, under no circumstances to discuss which roles you submitted
The door slammed shut. "That was a nice vacation, but it's good to be home again!" the man exclaimed. "Good for you maybe" the woman replied. "I need to get ready for work now."
A little while later, the woman had left and the kid was in bed. The man was alone. "Well, I should make sure to get that game off the ground now..." he said to no one in particular.
A man types away at his keyboard. The only sound heard by the outside world is the constant clickety-clack of the man’s keyboard and the frantic clicking of the mouse.
“Come on transfer! No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. NO! Not now. Why is this happening now?”

He was all alone. He was sure of it. So whose voice had that been? Someone had spoken to him clear as day. He looked around again for a few moments, until he was sure that no one was in the room except for him. Once he felt secure, he relaxed and sat down....
There it was again. Someone was talking to him. But how? Was he losing his mind?

-SNAP-
-Ohh, what a dumb life form you are, I’m SO surprise that you think that HE created only ONE divergence.
-I KNOW You, You are...-
-Oh Yes, you know Me, I know Me, everybody know ME.
Let’s see.. where are We Exactly? What is this thing?.-

They arrived from all over, using whatever means of transport they had available; by land, by sea, by air and from underground. A select few even seemed to materialize out of nowhere.

It was the thrill of the game that seemed to bring them all together. Each player had their own style, their own personality. It was intriguing to see how all of the events would unfold day after day, night after night. So many twists and turns to yield surprise after surprise, no one could be certain how things would end. Players at times were able to choose favorite characters or partake in a storyline based on a video game from the moderator’s past. The stories were grand, the powers vast, and the laughs enjoyed by all. There were moments of awesome and moments of mistakes, but the memories carried on.

Flying high above the sky, the beautiful birds soared. As the the cool air of the morning mist carried them gently along to a destination of great food on their paradise, the birds swooped in for a breakfast that they were quite used to enjoying after so long here on this island.
But something was different this morning. Someone was waiting for them. The birds... I must have their mana abilities. He waited until all the birds were feasting upon the many tiny insects that were there. The birds, not capable of heightened thought, never realized that the insects for today's breakfast were mechanical in nature. Once they have ingested enough, the mechanical insects came to life, tearing the lifeforce from each of the birds.
The man waiting collected the life essence of the birds and then disappeared.

"CHARGE! DO NOT YIELD! WE CAN OVERPOWER THIS BEING! CAPTURE HIM, FOR THE EMPEROR!" The general proclaimed. His men rushed forward, brandishing varied arms against a giant, almost-living castle. The castle began to twist and turn, rising above in a battle stance. The general's soldiers stopped rushing. Many dropped their weapons and turned. Others stood frozen in fear.

They looked back, and what they saw confused and freighted them. Neither had seen a floating ship of this kind before, but they had both seen their share of strange sights. As they were pulled closer and closer to the colossal ship, they readied themselves. Soon they had docked within the monstrosity and they waited for the cargo bay doors to open.

"HAHAHAHA!! BURN!! BUUURRN!!! AHAHAHAHAHA!!!!"
"Yes... this will do nicely...". The man was pleased.
Quebbster is dead. He was ten years together with the wife and one very nice vacation to celebrate this.
Day 1 begins now! You have 24 hours to get something done.
I'm so sad that we couldn't get another person signed up, I was all set to send in some roles from my game! Next time...
Anyway, for those new to the All-Star game, Alignments NEVER change, but the power sets can be tweaked. Quebbs has been kind enough to link to the prior games above, so if you have time to do research on the roles there (most Mods include a wrap-up of roles and powers), it can be a big help during the game.
"Why would the possibility of me being wrong ever stop me from doing something?"
