Standard Rules (stolen from mith):
1. The moderator's ruling is final. If you think that a decision is unfair, feel free to post why you think so after the game is over. Moderators can always use constructive criticism. Do not, however, be nasty about it.
2. Do not post anything game-related at night. Most moderators will close the threads at night, but it is still your responsibility to check that it is daytime before you post. (note: Only an issue in twilight, as I will be locking threads. See below.)
3. Do not post anything game-related (even "I suspect him!") once you are dead. In particular, if day has just started, make sure that you haven't died before revealing information you just received at night.
4. Votes should look like: Vote: Player. Some moderators will not count a vote unless it is in this format. (note: Unvotes for switches are not necessary, but include them if you like.)
5. Never show emails or PMs from the moderator to anyone in the game. Quoting your PM to prove your innocence is strictly forbidden. (note: Not relevant, the PMs are quoted above.)
6. Do not discuss the game with other players outside of the thread unless you are part of the group, and only do that at night.
7. Do not sign up for a game under two different names. You will get caught, and possibly banned if I am feeling mean. (Ok, probably not, but moderators are unlikely to let you play.)
8. Lynching requires a >50% majority. If a deadline is required (see 9), the player with the most votes will be lynches as long as they have >1/3 of the population voting for them. If there is a tie, then:
a. If it is a 50-50 split, both will be lynched.
b. If there are players not voting for one of the two, day will continue until someone unvotes, switches, or adds a vote to one of the two.
9. Deadlines will only be used if the post rate drops below a 1 post per player for day average. For the purposes of this rules, consecutive posts by the same player will be counted as one post. Deadlines will last 48 hours, not counting Sundays, and will be very strict since there will be no role claiming or cop/etc. information revealed.
10. As soon as someone reaches a majority, or the deadline is reached, day is over. Try to remember to check the thread before you post if it is near a majority/deadline.
11. HAVE FUN! |

As the sun rises over Mount Olympus and casts its warm glow upon Golden Athens, the townspeople awake. Each person heads to the Temple of Zeus, high atop the Acropalyse, to pay homage to the Father of the Gods and to pray that all goes well today. Then, they return to their tiny dwellings below and start their day.
It is soon evident that there are people missing from the streets of glorious Athens. The first to be found missing is referee. He did not arrive at the theatre after the morning prayer, and thus his usual plays were not heard filling the amphitheatre. Yes, referee was Euripides, the Greek playwright who wrote about the affairs of men and not gods. Perhaps this is what killed him? But no, as we approach the place where his house should be, we instead find a large boulder surrounded by rubble. From beneath the gigantic rock, we see the two legs of ref. Poor ref, all he ever wanted was to make himself known, but alas, his demise came too soon.
The second person that we discover is missing is Porro. Fearing the worst, we approach the spot where his house should be, and we find it there! After saying a quick prayer of thanks, we enter the house to look for Porro. As we enter the bedroom, we see his bed with a black arrow right through the center of the pillow, but no Porro. Then, we see him coming up the road, acting like his normal self. Thankfully, he must have had other business, but it still remains that someone is out for blood.
With one townie dead, there are 11 alive with 6 to lynch. Happy hunting! |

Somehow, I expected you were going to say that. Maybe I should make my title "Peregrin's TIMS". BTW, I'm not going to use the most vocal player excuse for two reasons:
1. My activity has dropped considerably lately, so I'd be lying if I claimed that.
2. I have an even better defence this time around. I'm innocent.  |

Any ideas for the bad guys?
Rock and black arrow?
12 people = too short for 2 groups
Could be mafia+SK or mafia+vigilante...

| I wouldn't be so quick to rule out 2 mafia groups. While it is unlikely, mini-game mafia only had 12 players yet had 2 mafia families. But, that was a weird game. 2 groups are unlikely, but not impossible. |

It seems like the mod want's to start the whole game off by implying that I do something at night. Info for free? That's rather unusual for a mod is it not? Perhaps it's not what it seems after all?
I can only conclude that the mod did not intend to imply that I was out at night, only that I had been out and about during early morning (artistic licence etc).
I also think it's pretty certain that a doc saved me last night. Certainly with most (if not all) mafia roles I've come across, you are not safe from attack even if 'you were out at night'.
Then again, maybe the mod's a loon But don't tell him I said that. _________________

Ok, after a bit of thought:
I googled for 'black arrow(s)' + greek + myth etc, but couldn't find anything. Could be a god, a greek enemy, or a greek hero (if it was a vig).
House being crushed by a rock? My first reaction was that it could have been Hercules (possible vig?) or a god. (Perhaps the gods are being mischeivous, after all Mount Olympus didn't use to be anywhere near Athens ).
... After thinking about it a bit more, I've come up with two other options .... Archimedes said something like "with a long enough lever I can move the world" so he had the know-how to move a rock (possible vig?).... or (and I'm not sure about this) did some enemies of greece use catapults/trebuchets?
p.s. the fickle finger of fate leads me to vote:Mgm for being 7th on the list. _________________

I'd have to disagree. Doctors protect someone from a kill. They don't necessarily have to heal the wounded. _________________ Forever is such an unpleasant word |

A) I don't think he's mafia.
B) He never said "ok, I was out but that had nothing to do with ref's murder".
His post summary was
- The mod is trying to make me look guilty but it's not what it seems.
- I guess he didn't want to give info for free but he was describing the scene.
- A doc saved him last night. Doctors can save you while being out at night can't always save you.
Especially the last part doesn't sound that good. "Even if 'you were out at night'" seems to me just like "Yes, I was out that night but I think the doc saved me."
I don't care (right now, that is ) if he was shooting someone, recruiting someone else or helping rebuild the Acropolis. I just want to know if he's willing to tell us the whole truth. (The "nothing but the truth" part is omitted. We're playing mafia.)
Isn't it quite early to start defending him?

Good point, Taf! Think about it. The mafia is the only one who could really benefit from defending someone, especially on day one. I've seen this happen a lot of times. They either try to save their buddy from getting lynched or they try to appear innocent to the town. I think this is the best lead so far.

Taf and Cad; My point was/is----
Porro was probably saved by a doc,,,good odds that Mafia
tried to kill him.
We should be focusing on those we think more likely to be Mafia.
So why focus on Porro?
Seems like a distraction ploy, trying to seem to participate, yet making
no useful addition. |

Given 'A' how would it benefit the town if I disclosed whether I was out last night or not, and why are you persuing the matter? Admittedly a less experienced player may have done what you hoped for, and blurted out some form of defence with info which the scum might find useful, but I (IMHO) worded my post very carefully, and generically, so as not to provide such info.

Would you believe me if I said 'yes'? This is mafia after all, so I think the question is mute isn't it? But just in case you would accept my word, the answer is 'yes, but certainly not yet'.

I thought MadMax was accusing you of asking daft questions, and herself looking for a potentially more fruitful line of enquiry, rather than "defending me" as such. However, it could be a mafia ploy. But so could your line of enquiry (if I admit to being out then the mafia think I've got a useful role and need killing asap, if I admit to being in then the mafia think I'm a normal townie so hunt somone else at night). _________________

But I hope you're not simply suggesting that: good players are experienced, I am experienced, therefore I must be a good player. Because that's flawed.

Hi all. I still exist.
No votes, no thoughts as of yet -
yes, Taflinel is acting weird, but he acted weird in an old game, too. (I came across it while attempting to learn how to play Mafia.)
I'd like to know more about Porro's activities, but this is Mafia, I don't expect any info. He is a good player, from what I've seen, and I'd guess this will be a very interesting game if he and Taflinel are on opposite sides. |

I don't know what you suppose helpful is, but unless Porro is going to admit to being some murderous scumbag being out killing last night, I expect any info he'll share to out important roles (either himself, or others to confirm his info). How can you see that as helpful?
Let the scum guess whether he was out or not, and whether he was doing something important. |
