CP Mafia 3 - Super Smash Mafia - GAME OVER - Darkness Win!

[Oling_Roachinen]

Ha, I was like a 1/5th right about Dr. Mario afterall.

[squiggs96]

I still can't believe you f###ers lynched me after I killed Girly, which directly lead to lynching Aeneas.

Oh, you killed two mafia? The only explanation is that you have to be mafia, and should be lynched as well. It makes perfect sense for a mafia member that is about to be lynched to use a day vig to kill another mafia member, that would immediately lead to lynching yet another mafia member. Of course a mafia member about to be lynched would not want to help his team by using the day vig and killing a townie. That would just be silly. No, I don't want to follow your lead, lynch the godfather, and be up 8-1 (6-1 after the double night kills would take place). I would like to be part of 500+ posts on day 10 when the game is mathematically impossible to win.

[GirlySports]

i know but could you imagine that for the entire game!

I'm glad we killed him that early... Pika I can handle. Some chick trying to tell me how to get in shape every day would have made me go postal.

[CaptainCrunch]

I was actually going to try and hand out a town drunk power to one player, I wanted them to only be able to talk like a half drunk failed small club comic.

But the game accelerated so fast that I had to forget about it because no one would have taken it.

So... what effects could hg15's rewind actually have had?

It really depended on what was happening at the point in the game in he used it. For example, people who used one-shot powers would not get them back, people who died the day previous would temporarily come back to life if he used to go back a day. People who joined the guardians or eternals would keep their status, BUT the abilities they got from might disappear if they are one-shot and used or post restrictions.

When's the next one?!

Here is Part 1 of the Eternals/Guardians messages in the order I sent them out. CC (Eternals) - CaptainCrunch, CBL (Guardians) - Crazy Bacon Legs, BigC (Guardians) - BigC

CC To GP_Matt:

Hello My Friend;

Allow me to introduce myself, I am the leader of The Eternals, a small group of powerful people who are dedicated to the idea that power not used is power wasted, and that order is preferable over chaos. However sometimes chaos is needed to establish order.

We were the ones who got Adam and Eve kicked out of the Garden of Eden, we knew that if man stayed in the garden that we would merely be slaves, never realizing our potential and drive for power. We have bought down countless societies and replaced them with societies where power lies in the hands of the deserving, driven by those who are willing to put the betterment of society over the freedom of the undeserving.

This is why we are reaching out to you. We have noticed that your society is on the tipping point, a natural balance between Chaos and order is being lost and it’s time for you to seize that opportunity.

Aren’t you tired of not having the power to make the changes that you wish? Aren’t you tired of the weak and chaotic dictating terms and making the rules when it should be wise and strong individuals like yourself shaping society?
Don’t you wish that the destruction of evil was a mere matter of deciding that it was time?

We offer you a potential step towards a position of influence. Is it corrupt or evil of you to do this? Evil is merely a concept defined by the weak to blame the powerful, Corruption, merely a term created by the envious. We beg you to take this opportunity to reform society.

We are offering you an opportunity here to do what’s right, we attach no strings, the power that we give you is a gift. In short we are offering you membership in a group that has existed in one form or another since before the calendar.

If you reply to this offer within 12 hours of receiving this message and indicate that you are committing yourself forever to our brotherhood, you will receive the gift of Lynchproof. This power is a one-time gift that will prevent you from being lynched and guarantee your survival.

I give you a friendly warning, a rejection of us or an attempt to expose us will lead to someone else receiving our interest and you becoming a powerless individual swept away and forgotten like a grain of sand on a beach abandoned.

We are always watching and waiting


Sincerely a friend
ad eos qui suscipiunt

CBL To starseed:

starseed,

There is truth beyond what you know. There is a way to find this truth.

We know the truth: we know all about you, what you represent, and your role in this paltry game.

You live in a world of colour; a world of light and whimsy. You see only pale reflections of reality. You know nothing of the darkness that seethes below you, threatening this world and all who live within it. Only by learning of this darkness can you finally see the true light. We seek to cast this light.

Knowledge brings power, and we can grant you a part of this. True power only comes by committing to our cause.

You have been contacted because of who you are. You will be asked to become one with us. You think you know the real threat to this world and how to win. But we know the truth. We know the real threat. We stand against it. We are all there is between chaos and order.

You have been chosen. But you would do well to remain silent to others for now. Do not share this new knowledge with those aligned with you. Do not discuss this message with them.

Choose wisely and we may grant you great power. We offer you the gift of knowledge: join us and you may know the alignment of one person. You may use this ability once on the night of your choosing.

Wait. Watch. Listen. The truth is coming, and its light shines through. You will know those who are aligned with us soon enough.

We are the Guardians. Will you join us?

CC to East Coast Flame:

Hello My Friend;

Allow me to introduce myself, I am the leader of The Eternals, a small group of extremely powerful people who are dedicated to the idea that power not used is power wasted, and that order is preferable over chaos. However sometimes chaos is needed to establish order.

We have been around since man first left the trees and started walking upright. We were there when the first primitive man picked up a rock and took ownership and custody over the weak.

We handed the knife to Brutus the Younger when the Roman Senate decided to depose Caesar and seize power for themselves.

We are reaching out to you because we recognize the greatness within you. We see your potential in becoming a great and wise leader who can rule your society and protect it from the weak and the dark.
We are giving you the opportunity to rebuild society in the way that you believe it should be and to destroy any threats to your rule.

The weak should not dictate terms to the powerful, the weak need to accept that their reality is based around serving the strong.

We offer you a potential step towards a position of influence. Being influential is not evil, using and ruling over the weak is the ultimate expression of democracy.

The weak may blame the strong, the weak may foster chaos, but ultimately the strong will destroy the chaos and the weak will submit and help you build a strong, secure and strong society.

Your society is rotting from the inside, under attack by the agents of weakness and chaos and we’re here to help you.

We are offering you an opportunity to restore justice and fairness and a dedication to the natural order of things, we attach no strings, and the power that we give you is a gift. In short we are offering you membership in a group that has existed in one form or another since before the first clock struck midnight.

You will learn the enlightened rules of our order over time if you join us. Rule number 5 is make your enemies suffer in death as an example for others to learn.

To this end, if you reply to this offer and indicate that you are committing yourself forever to our brotherhood, you will receive the gift of Poisoner. This power is a one-time use gift that will allow you to watch one player of your choosing die on the second night after you poison them. So if you poison a player tonight he will die tomorrow night.

(A Poisoner is a killing role, targeting a player one night, poisoning them. The poisoned player then dies the following night without the Poisoner having to target them again. In this way the Poisoner can more effectively dodge Watchers and Trackers, by claiming "I didn't target that player the night they died!")

I give you a friendly warning, a rejection of us or an attempt to expose us will lead to someone else receiving our interest and you being cast to the wretches and torn apart.

We are always watching and waiting


Sincerely a friend
et nos in saecula

CBL to GirlySports:

GirlySports,

You are on the right track. You are to be commended. Do not allow yourself to be drawn in by lies and misdirection.

There is truth beyond what you know. There is a way to find this truth.

We know the truth: we know all about you, what you represent, and your role in this game.

But you do not know the truth. You have only the beginnings of hints at this time. But understand that you live in a world of colour; a world of light and whimsy. You see only pale reflections of reality. You know little of the darkness that seeths below you, threatening this world and all who live within it. Only by learning of this darkness can you finally see the true light. We seek to cast this light.

Knowledge brings power, and we can grant you a part of this.

You have been introduced to the ones called The Eternals. They represent the darkness, and all its danger. They threaten this world, and your role is important in this battle. We invite you to join us.

In exchange for your services, we offer you the power of protection: On one night, you may protect yourself from death. If you are targeted the night you use that power, you will live. This power can be used only once; choose wisely on when to use it.

Do not speak of this to others, except to confirm that you are a member of the Guardians, and that you work to further the light. Do not reveal the power you have been granted.

Wait. Watch. Listen. The truth is coming, and its light shines through.

We are the Guardians. Will you join us?

CBL to mrkajz44:

mrkajz44,

You are on the right track. You are to be commended. Do not allow yourself to be drawn in by lies and misdirection.

Understand that there is truth beyond what you know. There is a way to find this truth. We know the truth: we know all about you, what you represent, and your role in this game. There is a larger game being played, and it is time for you to take your place in that game.

There have been many questions about us and The Eternals. The Eternals bring death and destruction; they threaten and cajole in order to gain members. Those who have joined have been told they will either be killed or lose their abilities if they do not join. The Guardians protect and give life. We gain members through offering help and guidance.

Understand that there is an imbalance. There are more Eternals than Guardians and they are causing needless death. We seek to rectify this. We need numbers higher than the others or the innocent will continue to suffer.

In order to gain members, the Eternals have been threatening those who they seek to recruit with harm. Their members had no real choice in their recruitment, and were forced into their ranks. The Eternals threaten our very existence and we seek to guard the world.

We understand that it is dangerous to join us at this point because of the attention it will bring. However, we can protect you if you join our ranks.

Join us and we will offer you the power of self-preservation: On one night, you may protect yourself from death. If you are targeted the night you use that power, you will live. This power can be used only once. Choose wisely on when to use it.

The other side has an easier time gaining members. We will not threaten in order to gather numbers. We seek only to protect the world and those within it.

We ask that you not share the specifics of what we have told you, as it is not yet time. You may simply tell the others that things have been explained, and that the Guardians seek to protect. You may tell them not to trust The Eternals.

Wait. Watch. Listen. The truth is coming, and its light shines through.

We are the Guardians. Will you join us?

BigC to GGG:

Notice of Corporate Restructuring

The Guardians Corporation Ltd. announces a restructuring of their Calgarypuck branch operations in response to lackluster recruiting efforts. Previous efforts have shown that the stated targets (100% recruitment rate) have not been met due to improper communication channels and a failure to provide adequate synergy opportunities.

In other words we're bad at this.

As part of our efforts to drive of recruitment we will be seeking talented individuals to join The Guardians Corporation Ltd. and help us meet our objectives and gain back ground ceded to The Eternals Company International.

END PRESS RELEASE, BEGIN BEGGING

Allow me to introduce myself, I am a representative of The Guardians and my task is to convince you to join us in our restructuring efforts. We provide a competitive benefits package which includes a one-shot tracking ability for the next night if you agree to join us.

I would like to remind you that the Eternals have been involved and prosecuted for unethical business practices and as such it is not smart to be involved with them. You would NOT like white collar prison!

Please join I am working on commissions and there's this sweet fitted 59FIFTY Kings cap I want to buy.

CC to GirlySports:

You arrive home, tired and exhausted after a long stressful day of debate and investigation. You walk into your living room and slump into your favorite chair when you notice a small metal box on your coffee table. It’s engraved with symbols that are unknown to you. You pick it up out of curiosity and inadvertently press on a symbol.

The box starts to moan as if suffering a thousand torments and you notice the symbols start to glow and you scream in horror and pain as you feel like you’re being pulled apart and re-assembled, you lose consciousness.

You wake up.

You are in a blasted landscape, the ground is cracked and parched and endless. The sky is red and rolling as if the air itself is on fire. You notice an object in the distance and stagger towards it.

It’s a throne, tall and ornate and made of dark marble. A hooded figure observes you, you can’t see the face of the person as the shadows obscure it, but you notice that the eyes are glowing with what seems to be mirth. The figure gestures to a soft cushion in front of the throne and you lower yourself on to it gratefully, a glass of water appears beside you and you drink deeply from it.

The figure leans forward and begins to speak to you, the voice is ageless, neither young or old, and it reverberates with many voices and sounds like its coming to you from every direction and at the same time from a great distance and from right over your shoulder.

“Hello my Friend, we don’t have much time together, so I don’t have time for anything as inane as answering foolish questions.”

You nod, and have a feeling that even if you wanted to you wouldn't be able to speak.

“I am the leader of the Eternals. We witnessed the start of the universe as you know it, we believe that the truest expression of power is the ability to shape your community around the ideals of a just, secure and orderly society. We despise Chaos, but believe that it is a useful tool in bringing about a freely accepted version of order.

We bought the wood that allowed Noah to build his Arc, so that he could watch a corrupt society drown. We paid Judas his 30 pieces of silver gladly to betray his best friend.

We see the greatness in you, and bought you before us to give you a warning and an offer.

Not everything is as it seems. The Guardians are not what they seem. Your so called friends are not what they seem. They see the power in you and the greatness in you and they tremble in fear and paranoia, and are looking at the quickest way to dispose of you. You are being deceived. The true visionaries have learned that the best path to power is to trust in your own wisdom and follow your instinct to survive.

My friend, those who serve the Guardians are liars and thieves in the service of liars and thieves. Make no mistake those who promote our gifts are somehow not genuine or not real powers are sadly and pitifully mistaken.”

The figure chuckles, it sounds like dry bones being shaken in a glass.

“Your petty squabbles are of no concern to us, our only concern is that the powerful should rule the weak, that is the order of things, and that only the powerful can bring about a truly fair and just society where corruption and wrong thinking will have no power. We see you as a vessel to bring this about in your reality.

We offer you the ability to control your ascension, to evaluate the weak and sweep aside those who are not worthy of a place at your feet. To eliminate those who cannot or are unable to serve but choose to sow doubt and chaos.”

The figure leans back in his throne and watches you carefully; his eyes narrow in contemplation as if he was holding a conversation with a person not there.

“Aren't you tired of constantly being accused by people with no vision, being attacked by the common rabble who should be grateful to be ruled in exchange for security? We give you the opportunity to bring society into line, a line that values peace and has no conflict.

We offer you membership in our ancient order, we offer you a seat at the table of power, and we offer you a gift that will allow you to survive against those that conspire against you. We will allow you to stop being in the service of liars and cheaters.”

The figure waves his hands and a small flame appears between them and grows in intensity and a small box emerges. He makes a pushing movement and the box drops into your hand and you scream as it burns you. You try to open it, but it’s locked or sealed.

“You have 24 hours to accept our offer. While time never ends, our patience does. If you accept, you will be given a mark of power for all to see and identify you as a member of our enlightened group and they will cry out in fear.

Be mindful in freely and honestly disclosing this conversation or information about this gift to your colleagues if you truly wish to take the first step to power. Our order was founded on guile and subterfuge. If you disclose this power freely, you will be targeted by the weak and fearful. Honesty is not your friend. Honest aspirants to power are cast aside by the unworthy.

But be warned, the costs of refusing us are great. We despise those who waste the potential levers of power. There is a possibility that you will become the weakest person in your society, powerless and capable of only serving. There is a possibility that you will become the condemned and be swept away like so much offal. Realize that if you don’t take this offer, someone else that is not your friend will. Eventually someone with vision will make the right decision.

Think hard about this my friend; what’s in this box could very well give you the ability to rule, forever.”

The figure leans back in his throne. You see that he is beginning to shimmer as if behind a wall of great heat yet you suddenly feel cold and hollow. He spreads his hands wide and brings them together with thunderous sound and you blink and wake up in your living room. The small box is on your coffee table which removes any doubt that this is a dream. You notice the markings on the side.



You notice an inscription of the box as well and wonder what it means.

tu praeter omnes une

You take the box and surprisingly it opens. A simple card is inside. It reads:

"A Jailkeeper (or Jailer)'s Night Action is one that protects its target from kills, but also Roleblocks its target."

A cold winds blows through your house and you shiver as it carries an ageless whisper.

“We are always watching”

BigC to Drury18:

HEY DRURY18 how's it going? It's us, The Guardians! I see you were prodding our good pal GGG there. I see there was also talk of him possibly being poisoned which came as a shock to us (mostly because we haven't been paying attention to this game). While it wouldn't be the end of the world if GGG dies a dishonorable death, it would be a real pain in the ass seeing as how we've just started gaining some ground against The Eternals. (More like The Eternal...######bags)

How about I play a cruel joke on you and offer you membership to The Guardians? It's not so bad, we have a book club meeting every Wednesday night and we host Smash tournaments every Sunday. (All items on btw THIS AIN'T NO FALCO ONLY TOURNEY) Also this way you and GGG can become BFFs or something. Like, if GGG gets murdered later in the game or something the least you could do is take his place and honor his memory by becoming part of The Guardians.

We'll even give you Watcher powers for the next night if you join, it's only fair since we gave GGG that sweet Tracker ability. Here's some testimony* from our other members if you need some more convincing:

"Before I joined The Guardians I was giving up hope on becoming fit, but after joining I lost 40 lbs!"-starseed

"I was going nowhere in my life but after joining The Guardians I feel as if I have some new meaning in my life!"-GGG

"I wasn't sure about joining The Guardians but I can confidently say that joining was the best decision I have made in my life."-Drury18 3 days from now

We trust you will make the right choice.

*Testimonies are made up for entertainment purposes only. Offer void in Quebec.

BigC to Oling_Roachinen:

Oling_Roachinen today is your lucky day! The Guardians R&D department has just finished developing their latest product and they want YOU to test it out! This miracle product will change your life! Have you ever woken up one day and thought to yourself "This (CP Mafia 3 player) is grinding my gears! The game would be so much better without (CP Mafia 3 player) ruining it."? Do you find yourself constantly thinking about settling grudges in the most violent way possible? Do you frequently fantasize about doing illegal things to this person? If you said yes to any of these questions you should probably seek help, and while you do that you can also volunteer to try out our new product!

The Guardians is proud to announce the trial run of the DIY Vigilante Kit. This product will allow you to daykill one player of your choice with the most fiercest FALCON PUNCH imaginable! Simply type the command "Kill: (Player name)", sit back, and watch the fireworks fly. And unlike beta test steam games this is guaranteed not to leave you bitter and disappointed! All of this can be yours if you join our benevolent organization.

Obviously this daykill won't work against members of The Guardians, that would be very unprofessional!

Here is Part 2 of the messages.

CC to Rathji (this was so big it needed two PMs!):

You are sitting at home, discouraged and maybe a little bit scared. It seems that all of your plans and defenses are falling on deaf ears. You feel abandoned and alone. You lay back on your couch and close your eyes as a tension headache throbs dully behind your ears. You drift off to sleep and dream.

You're in a small town, a typical middle America, white picket fences and small houses, a church steeple rises in the distance at the corner of what would be a main street. People walk by chatting happily as they go about their lives. You stop and look down, a small boy is aimlessly playing with his bicycle wheel, he looks up at you and smiles shyly in greeting.

He suddenly looks over your shoulder and his happy face turns to worry and fear as he points over his shoulder and stammers, "They're here"

You look over your shoulder and see a hill, three clocked and shrouded figures stand at the top watching the town. You can feel the cold malevolence coming off of them in waves so strong that you feel nauseous. One figure gestures dramatically and you suddenly feel the temperature rise as the air seems to ignite around you. You turn with a start as you hear people screaming, the little boy at your feet cries out pitifully and you watch in horror as he bursts into flames as do the building and people around you. Your last thought is horror as you smell your hair burning and feel your eyeballs burst from the over pressure of the heat and feel your flesh rolling down your face, you shriek as the enormous pain overcomes you and you spiral.

You feel a gentle rocking as you hear the sound of water hitting wood, you don't want to open your eyes but you do, you sit up, you're in a small rowboat in the middle of a lake, the very town that you were in burns in the distance. but it's cool on the lake, you also notice that you're not alone. An old man in fishing gear sits on the end of the boat, his face is somewhat recognizable to you, but he looks kindly as he slowly reels in his fishing line and then casts it out again. He smiles at you and takes a sip off of a can of Budweiser, he shakes his head and reaches into a cooler and pulls out a can and hands it to you, it's wet and its cold even more so then after what you've been through.


The old man smiles

"Good Morning, I don't have much time to answer all of the questions that you might have, we . . . us have much work to do and so little time"
You have questions and you want to open your mouth to ask them, but no matter how hard you try your mute. You decide to change your tactic, you pop the beer and take a sip, it's cool and delicious and it immediately sooths your scorched throat, you feel oddly and involuntarily grateful as you listen.
The old man speaks, his voice echoes oddly as if more than one voice is speaking, it comes from him, it comes from the birds around you and from the town in the distance. You notice that while the man looks like a kindly grandfather but his eyes are cold and perceptive and sparkle with a certain humorless mirth.

"I'm sure that you've figured out that I'm one of the eternals, its a good theory and its true, but I want to correct that, I am the leader of the eternals, and order that is as endless as time itself. We witnessed the first primitive man as he took up arms against his neighbor, we watched the crucifixion and knew it for what it was. We were in Moscow during the revolution and in the bunker with Hitler in its final day.
We cherish order and progression over everything. we seek to help this reality achieve a peaceful and orderly society at any cost.
The Eternals believe that society cannot exist when the weak are allowed to clamor and scrabble and plot and plan. We believe that the weak serve the strong, that is way of things, we believe that this is the truest form of democracy."
The old man slowly rolls his line up, he takes a sip of his beer as do you, your fascinated, this thing in the boat is the ultimate story teller his voice is rich and soothing like a balm. He shakes his head.
"Darn, I think I'm using the wrong bait, I'll have to talk to the shop owner about that, if there was a shop owner. Oh that town thing, We burn chaos and replace it with order under the rule of an enlightened individual. Yes its somewhat sad that we sacrifice thousands or millions, but our way has saved billions or trillions. We move in the shadows, we reform and we hand over that reformed society to those who are willing to rule, and enforce and create structure over disharmony.



I know that you're going to ask about the Guardians, They are an order that is almost as old as ourselves, they are the ultimate expression of anarchy. They scramble and plan and promise while creating discord and the promotion of chaos. They are liars and thieves and their subjects are liars and thieves in the service of liars and thieves. The pretend to care about your society, their name itself is the great lie of this universe and all others. But they promote the weak because they know that the weak will ultimately fail and everyone will beg for their return and 'enlightened rule'.

My friend, you look a little parched".
The old man casts another line and puts the rod down and leans forward to look deeply at you he hands you another beer and you take it gratefully because you suddenly feel more thirsty then you've ever felt before. You pop the top and take a sip and close your eyes in near ecstasy.

"We've come to you because out of all the other players, we see potential in you, we see you as someone in trouble who can rise above the adversity that's being presented to you and take the throne and rule wisely as all the others sit at your feet.

But the week look at you and tremble in fear so they've turned against you, they've cast suspicion and you are going to die soon if you don't do something about it. Your death won't be today, but it might be tomorrow and how you spend those next days is crucial.

Have you ever wondered why so many others have said, don't accept the gifts of the Eternals? Maybe it's because they fear that you will become more powerful than them. Let me be clear, this Scum versus Village is of no little concern to us, we see it as a symptom of a disease that we've seen before, we do find it suspicious that the Guardians rose at the same time as the Scum rose to sew chaos. But those are saying that you should refuse the offer aren't doing it to be comradely, they are doing it to deny you power, and power wasted is a fools game.

Do you believe that the powers that we give are a bauble or a false hood? Do you believe that we would waste our time on a fools game when so much more is at stake? GP_Matt was given a great power, but was murdered before he could use it and he was an innocent slain, possibly on the orders of the Guardian. East Coast Flame was given a great poison to use at his discretion, but whether that poison was blocked or whether its merely taking its time to act, or whether he's lying about using it at this time are things that you will find out soon, but that poison is real and deadly.

Now you might be wondering if we would be upset about East Coast Flame possibly lying to all of you about using this power you would be wrong. The Eternals know that in the pursuit of true power your greatest allies are dishonesty and guile and subterfuge, these are small things to pay in pursuit of true power and the ability to personally destroy chaos and bring order and rule."

The fishing rod begins to twitch and the old man chuckles as he reaches for the rod and begins to slowly reel it in, the fish fights but you have a feeling that this old man will win eventually, he is infinitely patient.

We offer a chance to save yourself and get a second chance at power. Yes you will be marked and it will cast suspicion. However as you've seen before One of our members was clearly innocent and betrayed, the other is in good standing in the community, you can reform yourself in that image with a few soothing words and cast suspicion on those that stand in your way. We offer you a great gift and membership in our order, we offer you a path to victory and power, all you need to do is take our hand."

The old man pulls in his line and a massive trout falls into the bottom of the boat and thrashes around as it tries to breath. The old man watches with malevolent interest as the fish fights its fate and then slowly dies. The old man looks at you and smiles gently, but you feel that it's not a friendly smile.

"When you return to your reality, you will see a gift from us contingent on the acceptance of our offer, while time is infinite our patience is not, you have 24 hours to accept, even though your life could suddenly end before that and your opportunity lost.
If you deny us, we will continue to speak to others, many weaker then you that would relish the opportunity to destroy you. If you refuse this gift and membership I can assure you that you will become weak and part of the common rabble. The weak will willingly server the strong, or die, that is the order of things."

You notice the sky starting to shimmer and change color to a rolling red, the town vanishes and is replaced with a cracked and parched landscape. You look back at the old man as he begins to fade. For a second you see something else, its old and enormous and unlike anything that you've seen before.

You wake up back on your couch, you start as if waking from a horrible nightmare, you're soaked in sweat and your heart pounds in the back of your throat. You lean forward and rubs your eyes and you notice a small ornate silver box sitting on the floor. You pick it up and look at it, its covered with indecipherable symbols, but one stands out stamped on every face.



You notice that the box is hinged, you open the box and a simple card falls out and you pick it up and read the simple cursive inscription.
"Hello my Friend
We offer you a great power, the ability to either openly kill your greatest enemy, or to use it to establish your credibility. Be careful in disclosing the truth of this gift if you choose to accept it as it will rally your enemies against you. But you can use this gift once and at the time of your choosing, this is the ultimate expression of power.

Day Killing Vig - Commonly know as a "dayvig," the player typically types the command Kill: PlayerName in thread, or contacts the mod privately if the kill is secret. If the mod is around, they will lock the thread and then post flavor and flip about who was killed. If the mod isn't around, players should stop talking until they show up. This kind of kill can almost never be blocked. In many cases, the vigilante will be confirmed as town. Typically a daykill does not end the day, but every vig should clarify with their mod if it wasn't made explicit in their role PM. If it ends the day, the execution will be made null, and the game will go straight into night.

Remember that those who council refusal of us are not your friends. We await your answer.

We are always watching.

Sincerely

Friend.

you notice an inscription at the bottom of the card.

"Homicidium non interficiam in studio iustitiae"

You lay back on your couch clutching the card to your chest, its warm on the verge of hot, you realize that you have a lot to think about and not much time to do it.

BigC to Rathji:

Greetings Rathji, The Dear Leader of The Guardians wishes to relay this message to you:

Mazrim will be

able to tell you quite precisely how

I look and from where I am after the game is over.

To save Mazrim the effort,

I want to tell you myself from where

I come _ _ .

I come from from _ _ _

the Southern border _ _

On the river _ _ _ _ _

I will even

tell you the name:

Spoiler!

haha yeah right like I'd do that

Oh yeah if you join The Guardians you get the one-shot vigilante daykill that you so truly desire (that doesn't work on Guardian members for obvious reasons), peace out XD


P.S. PK FIRE!!!!!!

CC to GirlySports (same as CC to Rathji above, not copying for space reasons)

CC to formulate:

You leave the tavern where you've spent the last few hours worrying about the results of the great scum hunt. For the Townsfolk they seem to be more efficient at bobbling and killing their own, for the Mafia this game is one of pure fun as they seem to be well hidden and content in allowing the town folk to fumble in the darkness. It seems like Chaos reigns supreme. Because of this you maybe had a few more drinks then you should have and you stumble unsteadily pausing on occasion to lean up against a wall until the world stops spinning. You pass by a back alley that you don't remember being there, you hear a whisper and slowly turn your head.

You look down the alley and you see a large black splotch against a wall it almost looks to you like it's a rip in the universe, you feel compelled to explore it and put your hand against it. It's cold and resists you like a living thing but you keep pushing and your hand slowly sinks into it. Suddenly it seems to grab you and pull you inside into a the worst kind of world.

You are suddenly assaulted by images of violence and horror. A man slowly walks down a line shooting kneeling prisoners. A woman screams as a knife slides between her ribs and she dies. You see a great battle where the world is on fire. You watch as the Titanic breaks in half and people fall to their death into the spinning propellers. Its too much for you to take and you blackout.

You slowly gain your strength and you hear the sounds of a crackling fire that seems to be pushing back the cold air. You don't want to open your eyes. but you hear the sound of a harmonica and a low gravelly voice singing.

"O beat the drum slowly and play the fife lowly;
Play the Dead March as you carry me along.
Take me to the green valley and lay the sod o're me,
For I'm a young cowboy and I know I done wrong."

As much as you don't want to, you slowly open your eyes and look up. You're sitting at the edge of a fire on a blanket, a plate of half eaten beans sits beside you. You are clearly in a desert at night, a blood red moon stands in the middle of the sky. You look across the fire to see an old cowboy eyeing you over his harmonica. He's dressed in black and has the hardened look of a man that has ridden across the desert for all eternity. His eyes dance with mirth as he slowly puts down the harmonica and nods at you in greeting.


He looks at you deeply and then leans back against a rock and starts to speak.

"Howdy, I guess you're wondering what this is all about, because I figure that a smart cowboy like yerself knows who I am.

But just for formalities sake, I'm the leader of the Eternals and as hard as it is to believe, I'm help y'all."

The old man resets himself on the rock, he leans into his pocket and pulls out a bent hand rolled cigarette and offers it to you. You shake your head . . . you don't smoke. He shrugs and strikes a match against his cheek and lights the battered cigarette and takes a deep drag and continues to talk.

"I could give you my so called resume, or reason to be here. But we both know what this is all about. This is all about helping you, and you alone. You see, we offer you the levers of power, we offer you the ability to take a position of leadership in your society. We abhor chaos and believe that the Strong should rule the weak, this is the natural order of things. We are older than time itself and have seen societies rise and fall based on our judgement. We want to help you to bring order to chaos and rule as you see fit.

There is a war in your little town, one that you can take advantage of, you can sweep away the violence and evil and bring judgement to your enemies. You can become a wise ruler that people respect and love whether they want to or not. We can give you the power that you need to bring justice and security to the people.

But you people are fools, skittering around like small rodents under the eyes of the Wolf. You and I need to have a truthful conversation and you need to make a decision. But be mindful, the right decision will bring you prestige and a chance at the golden throne. The wrong decision and you will surely be destroyed at best and set to labor as a member of the ruled at worst."

The old man takes a deep pull on his cigarette and blows a perfect smoke ring that dances slowly towards the moon.

"Let's talk about the Guardians, such a pleasant name, but are they here to protect you, or conquer you? There have been many groups in the past with innocuous and uplifting names that promise freedom and happiness. Liberation armies, National Socialism, the Department of Justice. But at the end of the day they want nothing more than to rule and corrupt. In a small sense we admire that they can lie and deceive so easily.

The so called Guardians are liars and thieves and those to serve them have the blackest of all hearts. They execute the plans of those who would oppress your ability to bring order to chaos.

The second thing is that you have a liar in your midst . . . well, obviously you have more than one. But after the last great failed Guardian power, members of your own society asked us to grant a power to prove ourselves and we did. However we were rebuffed and ignored and we noticed that this person did not disclose this to the rest of you. You as an enlightened person, need to dig into that and find out who is deceiving you blatantly."
The old man throws the butt into the fire, he leans forward and looks at you with a look of barely contained fury.

"Our patience with your society grows short. Your society is being run by fools and deceivers who have lead you all down a path that you don't want to take. We look on incredulously as your leaders are carefully guiding you down a path to chaos and death and the rest of you accept it like sheep in a gated yard. You need to make a decision and make it soon.
Use our power to rule we beg of you, learn from us and be our friend, become the center of power that your society needs before its too late.

We offer power without a price you would be foolish not to take it. But we offer this gift with one condition, you have 24 hours to accept our offer or we will look for another who is wiser. And you can only use this power once. Think about it, your time goes short."
The old man leans back and picks up his harmonica and starts to play while he's playing a sad and lonely voice sings in the distance.

"Get six jolly cowboys to carry my coffin;
Get six pretty maidens to sing me a song.
Put bunches of roses all over my coffin,
Put roses to deaden the clods as they fall."

Your eyes grow heavy and you nod off to sleep. You wake up sometime later on the floor of your bedroom wondering if you had too much to drink and the vivid dream is a result. But you see a note sitting on your bed. Its old parchment and the note is written in red on scrawling hand writing.

We grant you Vengeful Townie who, if the victim of a lynch, can perform an immediate daykill on any other player before the cardflip.

At the bottom of the note there is an ancient symbol:

BigC to dissentowner:

lol the gun didn't work, well I guess we forgot to tell Rathji that it's a prototype and that he was a beta tester. Ask Oling_Roachinen, he knows about our trial run beta testing program. Uh dissentowner if you don't mind can you tell Rathji to give us feedback on the dayvig power we gave him so we can finetune it? He can just post about it in the mafia topic we'll read it from there. Thank you!

Oh I guess you want some compensation for being our messenger? Yes, that's totally understandable. Unfortunately we can only pay you in bitcoins right now and we know people don't like being paid with fake money so the least we can do is offer you some protection. Since messengers have a tendency to get shot at why don't we give you a bulletproof chest? We promise this'll work, we stole it from The Eternals. (keep this case of corporate espionage a secret between us ok shhhhhhh!)

Oh and while you're at it tell people to stop posting so much it makes the thread a chore to follow. I'm not used to mafia games where people actually post!

CC to Puxlut:

Hello my friend.

Please know that we hold you in the highest esteem. We cannot say the same for the rest of your society.

Time and time again we have been denied and ignored, and we have decided that it is time for us to enact an act of terror that may be of great benefit to you.

You will become the cleansing sword of reformation in this town. You will bring the weak around you to heel.

You will bring order to chaos and establish the natural order of things. The strong shall rule the weak or the weak will die.

You might think that our powers don't work, this is a result of a war that you can have no understanding of. Therefore we give you a gift of undeniable power.

This is a one time gift that takes two night actions.

An Arsonist is a role which works similar to either a Serial Killer or a Poisoner. In the former case, it is functionally equivalent to an SK.


Typically, an Arsonist targets a player to "Douse" their home with gasoline, acting as their primary night action. However, at certain points in the game, the player may decide, in lieu of dousing, to instead "Ignite," killing the Doused player. This has the drawback of sacrificing a nightkill compared to a normal Serial Killer, but has the benefit of killing at a time of your choosing.


You have 24 hours to decide to accept our generous offer.


If you do not, an enemy of yours will gain a great gift.


I would give you two pieces of advice my friend.


1) Be careful in disclosing the nature of this gift to anyone, the fearful and weak will lash out to prevent you from completing your work or realizing the true power of this gift. In other words deception and deceit are your friend



2) Someone has lied about receiving an offer from us, they choose not to disclose this offer to the town. You need to ask that question. The answer is most obvious.


Consider this carefully my friend.

BigC to Wood:

"So I got my offer last night from an unknown source¨-dissentowner

Umm, hello?!? That was clearly a Guardians invite. And there were no strings attached, we didn't ask anything, we just gave suggestions on stuff we would have liked him to do. But enough of us acting salty, let's get down to business.

Oh we're The Guardians btw, nice to meet you Wood. Specifically, I'm the guy who was put in charge of restructuring this organization after lackluster Day 1 and 2 performances. While we haven't reached our stated goal of 100% recruitment I'm still pleased by the progress we made. The Eternals are not so tough now that they have NO ONE joining their sorry organization. I feel as if our swing and misses in the recruitment department are due to us not properly outlining our mission. Today is the day to fix that.

Who are The Guardians and what is our mission?

The Guardians are an organization dedicated to guarding all that is good in the world from the scourges of those that seek to make the world a dull place.

We are The Guardians...of SMASH!

When items are disabled, we're there to right this wrong!

When the only stage being chosen is final destination, we're there to fight against this injustice!

When the next tournament is for Melee and not the newest game in the series, we're there to knock back some sense into people and tell them to get with the times!

When people question Sakurai, we're there to tell them how dumb they are for questioning our generation's most brilliant mind!

We will NOT stand for stagnation, tediousness, and wave dashing!

GUARDIANS ARE HERE!!!!

WILL YOU JOIN US?

If you do you'll get a used POW block, there's not much POW left in it but it should be enough to allow you to cast an extra vote for today. We don't want it, we were just gonna throw it in the trash anyways.

P.S. AHAHAHAHAHA GGG LIVES THAT'S OUR BOY DON'T GET DOWN WITH THE GUARDIANS OG CREW IF YOU CAN'T BRING THE HEAT

BigC to Timbo:

Greetings Timbo, we're the Guardians, we noticed you said this earlier:

"Jebus H does everyone have frigin super powers? All's I got was a stupid bucket.

I got gypped!"-You

Fear not Timbo, as part of our program to give back to the community The Guardians will be more than happy to donate a power role to you!

How about we give you one of three power roles:
Day Cop (ooooh)
Doctor
Roleblocker

Whichever one you get is totally random, like Mr. Game & Watch's Judgment side B special. FLAVOR ROLE APPROPRIATE!

You do have to join us for this though, we're not running a charity here!

Post Script: OG means "Original Gangster", listen to more hip hop. We'd never call The Eternals "Mad Gay" though, we're trying to maintain a non-discriminatory workplace here!

[Mazrim]

Here is Part 3 of the messages.

BigC to Aeneas:

Hi Aeneas, this is the guardians

our homie GGG is a dead man walking

the day will probably end soon maybe

too lazy to write an elaborate invite

join us or you will need to type in AlTeRnAtInG CaPs on day 7, the eternals placed this curse on you and only we can lift it, don't really feel like explaining how this happened trust us though it's for real

sucks to be you bro

BigC to Hockeyguy15:

A message from The Guardians to the esteemed Hockeyguy15, the 15th Guy of Hockey:

There's scum among us? We're not able to confirm that but that wouldn't be surprising, we're an equal opportunity employer. We don't see alignments, if I'm told someone is scum I'll believe them since that person would not have been lynched yet. But enough about that, let's get down to business.

The great Masahiro Sakurai in all of his wisdom and glory has just made it known that Mewtwo will be on the new Smash Bros. game and for this we rejoice because...actually why is this a big deal Mewtwo sucked in Melee.

In any case, we're celebrating this joyous occasion by teaching someone the move transform. It will let you choose someone during the day or night and allow you to copy their power role ability. Wow. Just a warning, this is one shot because you seem to only have 1 PP left to use this move. You gotta join us of course but trust us, you won't regret this.

Oh and if you want our advice, go after puxlut, she looks mad shady. Or maybe we can try to recruit her in order to change her evil Eternal ways...but that would involve effort, ugh.

BigC to Drury18:

"However, the fact that Timbo did specifically ask me if he should accept the invite and Wood and myself both said no and we had questions about the powers, I'm not too pleased. Wood and I were VERY clear about the answer should be no and he accepted anyway. I'm not happy about this at all."-http://forum.calgarypuck.com/showpost.php?p=4969271&postcount=3541

LMFAO DEAL WITH IT WE'RE THE GUARDIANS #SWAG SMOKE WOOD EVERYDAY

accept this invite or you will have to talk like a pirate on day 8, yes this is another Eternals curse only we can remove

should have accepted our first invite bro, lates rofl

Quote of the Day:

"Why the hell is Mewtwo back in Smash Bros.? He sucked in melee."

CC to squiggs96:

You know, its a simple proposition and a simple game. Sometimes you need to test a theory in the most amazing and violent life changing experience possible.

To be very honest my friend. We don't care about your little battles we see you as what you all are. Tiny, insignificant and very very mortal. We on the other hand are immortal, we are Eternal, we are many and few.

We don't concern ourselves with Scum or Townspeople, all we see is chaos and disruptive disorder and we offer you a way.

Frankly my friend we know that you are going to die, it might not happen tonight, but it will be soon. We give you a chance to control your fate and take power over the others even if it is for a brief history of time.

We laugh at the foolishness of the towns folks. They think our powers don't work. Our powers are very real and very much a path to leadership.

The weak serve the strong, that is the order of things.

So we watch with some curiosity as time after time as we offer our powers and then watch as these powers are foolishly disclosed and discussed and as a group you decide in a cute democratic manner about how to use them, then you wonder why they don't work.

Foolish, pitiful and oh so mortal.

Do you think that there are those around you are being truly honest. The only honesty that you can count on is that you are soon to be cold and dead and buried, and it won't be the Eternals, and it won't be the scrabbling deceitful so called Guardians who manipulate into a lonely grave. You are being manipulated as skillfully as the the sisters manipulate the threads of destiny.

We offer you a power to do something, and we give you some advice.

We offer you the power of the Assassin, the ability to have one shot to kill someone during the day. Take our gift and use it today or tomorrow or the next day.

But don't be foolish enough to disclose this power to anyone else, don't debate it as if its a weapon for everyone.

Test the wisdom of the Eternals, accept our offer, and when they ask, tell them that you have some kind of protective night power, you can even claim to use it and shrug your shoulders and maintain that the powers of the Eternals don't work. Then when the time is right and you feel that need to kill, take aim at one of your rivals and kill them.

If you decide to disclose the real gift to your so called allies, don't be surprised if it doesn't work, Jack the Ripper didn't have a debate about who he was going to kill. The Night Stalker struck from the shadows without announcing his intentions.

You need to decide, the sands run through the hourglass and you have 24 hours, because we are infinite though our patience isn't. If you don't accept this generous gift, we will choose one of your rivals and give him a power that could leave you as a cold dead piece of meat, forgotten and never forgiven.

We watch, We wait.



Percutiat ac tenebras

CC to Drury18:

Hello my friend;

You have done well. We couldn't be more pleased. You see we see the potential in you, and the strength. We also know that you are hiding in the daylight.

We wish to simply help you.

You see, while the Guardians bring deception and sow chaos in the realms that they visit, we only seek the simplest and basest thing. Order. While the Guardians bring death, we bring justice, while the Guardians revel in dishonestly we bring clarity.

We like you very very much. The weak shall serve the strong that is the order of things, take our offer and you will be venerated above all, and in the end you will stand while others will bend for your favor.

You will bring order.

We offer you a membership in a group that has existed in one form or another since the dinosaurs were snuffed out by a rock, we offer you this same power.

To be very honest my friend, and we are always honest. This whole hidden enemy thing is really not our concern, our concern is much more ambitious.

For you to take that step into our world, our order you must understand that subtlety and guile will defeat all. There have been debates about the effectiveness of our gifts. As you can plainly see our gifts work if used in the right way.

If you announce your gift, if you have a friendly debate about how to use your gift with others, its likely to fail as this world is corrupted by powers.

However if you do what our latest member did, which is attack from the darkness without announcing intent or possession it works, because it shows that you are willing to lead and to make fair and just decisions.

So we make you this offer my new friend. We offer you the one time gift of Ninja ability. It can perform particularly secretive nightkills which are immune to trackers or watchers. This allows you to kill without risk of being caught, though typically the town will still be able to protect themselves through other means.

We believe that you will put this to great use.

And now the warning. if you do not accept this gift, we will find one who will use it. Its that simple, power denied is power lost, you might find yourself targeted by the very thing that you were offered.

You have 24 hours to accept.

BigC to dissentowner: (Note: The little alien holding a beer mug is my twitter avatar)

The little alien holding a beer mug has decreed: Drury18 must speak like a pirate!

lol

That's an annoying PR, make no bones about it. SKUUUULL JOKE YOHOHOHOHO!

We, The Guardians, keep warning people that The Eternals like to give out curses but do they listen? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

But this is a free society, you are free to make whatever choices you want.

By the way dissentowner we have a choice to offer you that you are free to make. We figured maybe this time you will like what we have to offer.

We have a one shot cop power (to use at night) to give out. We learned this one weird trick to figure out alignments however we really can't decide who to use it on, maybe you can help decide for us! If you join us you can have this power, no joke. If you don't want it we'll just give it to someone else, I hope that someone else isn't the "wrong hands" people have been warning me not to give it to.

Peace Out

BigC to Puxlut:

Basketball is back so you know what that means puxlut?

It's time to make some noise and support

YOUR

TORONTO

RAPTORS

Featuring:

Bruno Caboclo - A guy who literally cried after being dunked on

Jonas Valancuinas - The lost Jonas brother

Landry Fields - A guy who played for the New York Knicks, The Toronto Maple Leafs of basketball

Vince Carter's Ghost - Some say he still haunts the Raptors locker room as he tries in vain to find the talent he left there many moons ago. Spooky.

The Guardians are proud to support the only Toronto team that hasn't been a complete joke for the last couple of generations and to mark the start of the season we're giving out TWO extra votes for you (get it?!?!?!). Note that it will only be one extra vote if used on Guardian members, we would prefer if our
members didn't get dunked on.

So yeah you should ditch those Eternals, they've been nothing but trouble for you!

CC to starseed:

Hello Friend;

We hear your despondence, your willingness to surrender to the fates. To be murdered in the most heinous fashion, abandoned by your friends and especially by your patrons the Guardians.

We offer you a chance to turn despair to joy, defeat to victory, weakness to power. We offer you a chance to lead the way instead of being a mere follower hoping that your path will lead you somewhere.

You are in the services of liars and cheaters who will abandon you once they get what they want.

Renounce the so called Guardians, learn both side of the equation and become the wise leader that the people cry for.

Use our power, we beg of you.

If you accept this offer and renounce the so called Guardians we will give you the one time use of the following power:

A Vengeful Townie is a town role who, if the victim of a lynch, can perform an immediate daykill on any other player before the cardflip. If the lynch is prevented by another role, such as the Governor, then typically the vengeful ability does not trigger.

Let me warn you as we warn all others. The path to power is littered with betrayers and liars. Guile and secrecy are the only true tools to overcome corruption and disorder. If you disclose this power to your so called allies they will disrupt it and it will fail.

Find a way to mislead them about this gift, but you must decide.

Renounce the Guardians and prosper.

You have 24 hours to decide.



Proditio autem quaedam virtus est pro illis qui in fide

BigC to Oling_Roachinen:

Today is a dark day in the history of The Guardians.

OUR HOMIES GGG AND RATHJI ARE DEAD, POUR A 40 BY THE CURB AND PAY YOUR LAST RESPECTS BY PRESSING "F"

They are no more, what were once two valuable members of our organization are now nothing more than a memory. We only have their last words to remember them by:

"This ain't my time yet! I'll cheat death yet agai-"-GGG

"My only regret...is that I have but one life to give to The Guardians."-Rathji

THANK GOD WE SECRETLY TOOK OUT LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES ON THEM, WE RICH NOW!$!$!$!$!$! ALL ABOARD THE MONEY TRAIN CHOO CHOO!

On the plus side thanks to that extra cash flow that resulted from their deaths this gave us an opportunity to develop our latest death machine! The Guardians is proud to introduce the trial run of our next product, the Revenge Rifle. Thanks to the dark arts we have built a weapon capable of killing those that had a hand in UTTERLY DESTROYING GGG and Rathji. This weapon is designed to cause the most painful death imaginable as it kills with extreme prejudice. However this is a weapon of justice so the weapon isn't capable of killing anyone who doesn't have blood on their hands. In other words, the gun won't kill anyone who is innocent in the deaths of GGG and Rathji. What will happen should you use this gun on an innocent is that you will get to see what they did the night before, since this is a murder case we'll need airtight alibis for the innocent people involved. It's a day vigilante weapon so you know the drill, gotta use ##kill to take 'em out executioner style.

We chose you Oling_Roachinen (or as we like to call you, Oiling Roachmen) because we believe you deserve a second chance to join our prestigious club.

Oling_Roachinen, will you join us and receive this tool of justice to avenge the deaths of our best employees?

BigC to Oling_Roachinen:

In honour of our native son's ongoing mission to ruin the United States from the inside in order to usher in a new era of Canadian global hegemony The Guardians will reward you with an extra vote for day 10 if you join us. Note this does not work on members of the Guardians, we're not suicidal! MAXIMUM DEMOCRACY INCOMING!!!!!

Thank you and God bless ^_^;

Hello my friend;

Well to be honest, we are unsure if we want to be your friends.

Its amusing we have watched and debated and found it amazing that your town cannot save itself because you are all too busy scrambling and lying and deceiving and murdering.

You are chaos personified.

We offered order and a just society, we offered gifts to help, and at every corner your town chose deception and anarchy.

To often we saw the weak destroy the strong and then continue to be weak.

So we wonder? Is this town worth saving, or is it a cautionary tale that we the Externals can learn from.

We offer you opportunity. We offer you the chance to be the savior or the destroyer of your society

Since time is so short, we want to know what you are. hero or villain.

We offer you the ultimate power, to kill without noise, who do you kill we wonder? Do you kill a member of the light? Or the darkness?

And whoever you kill, is it a kill by design, or is it a kill due to incompetence?

Do you gamble for the win, or do you hide in the shadows.

All you need to do is accept the gift of the one night Ninja:

A Ninja can perform particularly secretive nightkills which are immune to trackers or watchers. This allows the one to kill without risk of being caught, though typically the town will still be able to protect themselves through other means.

As usual we will give you 24 hours to renounce your affiliation with the so called Guardians, and accept the mark of the Eternals. If you do not, we will offer this gift to someone who will certainly use it, more then likely against you no matter your affiliation.

BigC to Drury18:

Hello Drury18, it's us again, The Guardians.

It's been 10 days.

10 days of mislynches
10 days of game changing lynches
10 days of bickering
10 days of people posting after hammer
10 days of wall of text posts that I've probably never bothered to read
10 days of speculation regarding my identity
10 days of invites

And it may very well end here today with one wrong move by the town.

I've been lucky to witness 10 days of mafia (Though for some strange reason I feel it's been less than 10 days), and with the incoming release of Super Smash Bros. for the Wii U, I am glad that the end is near since that means I won't have to follow this game AND play Smash at the same time. Good lord that sounds time consuming.

And now we wait for the game to end in the inevitable final lynch.

SCREW THAT

Join The Guardians and you'll get a one shot governor power.

Imagine the look on people's faces when you use that!

"B-b-b-b-b-but we thought the game was about to end!"

NOPE, and the reaction from both sides would be so funny!

"THAT WAS A SCUMBAG WE WERE ABOUT TO LYNCH YOU JUST GAVE THEM A FREE NIGHT KILL YOU IDIOT!"

"WHAT THE HELL PRETTY SURE THIS WAS LYLO WE WERE ABOUT TO WIN WITH THAT LAST TOWNIE LYNCH NOW WE HAVE TO DO ANOTHER DAY?!?!"

Oh my god I am cracking up thinking about this.

Join us and introduce maximum comedy to this day. This is gonna be awesome.

P.S. dissentowner should be expecting a visit from us soon provided you guys don't go YOLO on me and hammer today. Would be nice to have every single one of you guys recruited, yep, that's the dream.

P.P.S. No Eternals curse on you to lift today, they must be slacking off.

P.P.P.S. The Eternals are neither pro-town or pro-mafia, they are pro-Eternals. Please keep that in mind.

BigC to dissentowner:

Hi dissentowner, Guardians here.

Who's your favorite Smash Bros. character?

Mines was Lucas until Sakurai decided to remove him in Smash 4, what a dick.

Damnit I'm mad.

Accept our offer to join The Guardians and we'll give you lynchproof for day 10 only, not even Sakurai can cut you out of this game!

Guess I'll see you guys in day 11, if there is one.

Our message is simple.

We can give you the ability to save yourself to fight another day.

Put yourself in a position to control.

Shrug off the feeling that all others control you and that you are a slave.

Renounce your membership with the Guardians, and join us in bringing in a orderly and just society.

We offer you the power of Lynchproof. This is a one time power used when you are lynched. But your time grows short, both in terms of your mortality and your ability to take control of your destiny.

We are the Eternals, we will give you 24 hours to decide, but we urge you to decide quickly.

I think that's everything! Any questions, let me know.

Oh yeah, I hope everyone enjoyed the random video game music I plugged into my posts. My love affair with the SNES is well noted now.

Peanut: I'm going to wait until the new year. This would be next to impossible to run in December.

What do you use for role resolution? I know it came up in game and you didn't want to discuss it then.

[mrkajz44]

Still can't believe how many roles there were! Even after reading through everything I still don't think I fully understand what the heck was going on. Extremely confusing, which made it so much fun to try and follow!

[GirlySports]

When did CC and BigC figure out who was mafia?

[CaptainCrunch]

To be honest, I had Oling figured out about half way into the game, but what really pushed it was his absolute push to have no one accept the power offers.

With HockeyGuy I had a feeling, but nothing confirmed. I offered him the Ninja Kill because I wanted to see if he took it and killed a townie. But he was way too smart for this evil.
