    Agreed - some hard prison time will show him that crime doesn't pay.
    ......although it is ultimately "the man upstairs" that will have the final word - come judgement day.

    Enmos is definitely a townsperson, yall fucked up.


    Okay well not definitely, but whoever voted for him first is probably mob. We developed a code language right here on this thread so I guess we posed the most threat PLUS he's the doctor. Whoever voted for Enmos first is probably mob(after the initial couple votes, I mean the ones who started the wave of votes against him).

    [size=+2]DAY 1 (twilight)[/size]

    After a tense day, the townspeople gather in the Town Hall. Well, most of them do. The Mayor (Asguard), the Travel Agent (SAM), and the Private Investigator (visceral_instinct) are mysteriously absent for the vote.

    The Police Officer waits patiently for the town's decision. A vigorous debate ensues.

    Vote Count (DAY 1)

    domesticated om: 1 vote
    steve100: 1 vote
    Challenger78: 1 vote
    SAM: 2 votes
    inzomnia: 3 votes
    Enmos: 4 votes

    The Taxi Driver, the Casino Owner and the Entertainer have all somehow roused the suspicion of one person in the town, but not of any others apparently. The Travel Agent has been doing his job, but in the current climate of suspicion even that has attracted attention. The Bartender is an even more suspicious character in the eyes of the townsfolk, but she narrowly escapes arrest.

    Perhaps strangely, it is the Doctor (Enmos) who is considered the most suspicious person in town today. Despite the fact that the Doctor had the potential to save people from the actions of the Mafia (if they are indeed in the town), the townspeople have turned against him. Suspicion is just too strong.

    The Police Officer slaps the cuffs on the Doctor and he is dragged kicking and screaming to the police van for a trip to the Federal Penitentiary.

    Arrested: Enmos

    Satisfied that they have rid the town of at least one Mafioso, the citizens return to their homes for a good night's sleep.

    It looks like the Bodyguard has a ticket out of town for the night, courtesy of the Travel Agent (SAM). So, skaught is safe from the Mafia tonight.

    Ticket out of town: skaught

    The Casino Owner has chosen not to observe anybody on CCTV tonight, for some reason, so everybody's votes count today and tonight.

    CCTV: nobody

    As day descends into night, some people wonder if the Lawyer might choose to act to get the Doctor out of jail. We'll have to wait and see.

    Alright guys, here's what we can guess on the Norse. If he saves Enmos, the doctor, the most valuable roles for the townspeople, he's not a mob(if he is he helped us more than he wanted). If he doesn't save Enmos, he's mob. Simple as that. There's no other person you want to save more. Of course, this will probably lead another 3 people to think I'm in the mob again.

    [size=+2]NIGHT 1[/size]

    Night descends on the town, but maybe the Lawyer (Norsefire) is up working late.

    Norsefire: if you wish to bail Enmos out of prison, please send me a PM to let me know. If I do not hear from you before DAY 2 starts, Enmos is out of the game.

    The MAFIA may now talk to each other by PM. Nobody else may talk until DAY comes again. This thread will be closed until DAY 2 arrives.

    Each of the Mafia who are not arrested (note: I'm not saying if Enmos was Mafia until I hear from the Lawyer) may send ONE vote for somebody to be killed to me by PM. You only get one vote each, and you cannot change your vote once it is sent to me. So, make sure you discuss your votes with each other before you send them to me. The majority vote will determine who is killed during the night. If I do not receive a vote from one or more Mafia, those people won't get to vote tonight; and if I receive no votes before DAY 2, nobody will be killed.

    NIGHT 1 will last until I have votes from all Mafia, or until approximately August 23, 11 pm UT (GMT).

    This time limit will also be posted in post 1 of this thread.

    Breaking news!

    The Lawyer (Norsefire) has bailed the Doctor (Enmos) out of jail.

    Enmos is free again and returns to town.

    The town sleeps uneasily, knowing that Enmos might be a killer in their midst...

    ----

    Norsefire: Remember that you can only bail somebody else out ONCE more in the entire game.

    Moderator notice:

    steve100 is dropping out of the game.

    I am looking for a new player to take over as Casino Owner.

    Please apply in this thread:

    ---

    Also, in answer to a question: people with Tickets from the Travel Agent only leave town at night. They can still participate in the discussion and voting during the day. In other words, a travel voucher only protects the person from the Mafia at night; it doesn't have any other effect.

    [size=+2]Mafia - DAY 2[/size]

    Last night, while most of the town slept, Officer unixgeek13 was walking the beat, keeping an eye out for any suspicious activity around town. For a long time, all was quiet, except around the casino. unixgeek13 expected there might be trouble there, so he stayed around for quite some time, but nothing untoward occurred.

    Thinking he had better check some of the other areas of town, he took a walk across the street. Briefly, he glanced at the colourful posters in the window of the travel agency, thinking that he needed a holiday. Moving on, he ambled down the street past the Town Hall, swinging his night stick.

    He passed the Village Idiot, who was lying still as death on the bench near the town square. But unixgeek could see him breathing. The cop moved on.

    Turning the corner, he passed the gun shop. All was quiet there, too. Across the street, there were lights in the newpaper office - the next day's edition was in preparation. It was 1.30 am.

    Suddenly, unixgeek heard the roar of a car engine. Turning, he saw a large black car screeching as it rounded the corner from the square. He wanted to get that car's number - the driver was driving like a maniac. It was good, he thought, because the car was going to go right past him.

    As the car drew level, a hail of bullets issued from the rear window. Unsuspecting, unixgeek13 had nowhere to hide. He was cut down, his body left as a bloody mess, ironically right in front of the gun shop. He lay on the pavement, unconscious.

    Luckily, he was noticed. The alarm was raised and an ambulance called. unixgeek13 was rushed to hospital. The question is: will the Doctor be able to save him?

    If the Doctor intervenes, perhaps Officer unixgeek13 will live. If not, he will surely die. He rests in hospital in a critical condition.

    -----------

    unixgeek13 may NOT post in this thread or take any further active part in the game unless and until the Doctor chooses to save him (Doctor: post in this thread in bold). In other words, unixgeek13, unless you see a message from Enmos in bold saying "Emergency surgery for unixgeek13", you can take no further part in this game. If such a message is posted, you may begin to post again.

    ----------

    It is now DAY 2, and all players may talk and vote for today's arrest.

    [size=+2]The deadline for DAY 2 votes is 24 August, 12:00 pm (midday) UT (GMT).[/size]

    Steve100 dropped out, this leads me to believe he was a mafia member. The casino owner IS a mafia member. I am basing this off of absolutely ZERO evidence.

    W00t. Entertainer is active.

    Couple of things to consider:

    Emnos and Inzomania both pointed each other out, Now, Emnos if he saves the cop, will not be mafia, but if he doesn't then he certainly is.
    Inzomania, as a bartender has a pretty weak role as mafia.
    Other contenders include the Casino owner, Travel Agent, and others.

    He only has two saves, why use them now? I don't think inaction on Enmos's part means he is mafia. I think YOU are actually a mafia member and so is the cop.

    The mafia hit one of their own ? why ?
    And Why would I be mafia and cooperate with Emnos ? Plus dude, the people in power are more likely to be mafia, hence the casino owner.

    steve100, the Casino Owner, mysteriously left town before the drive-by shooting of unixgeek13. Perhaps he had business elsewhere; perhaps he was scared for his life. Perhaps somebody was pressuring him.

    Whatever the reason, the Casino didn't even close its doors. The old owner left and was immediately replaced with a new owner.

    The Casino Owner is now USS Athens.
