House Rules and the Like
This is a normal style themed game, so the normal game rules apply. In the case of a deadline I do not do reduced counts. You either reach the amount needed for a lynch or you dont get one. Dont try to Mass Claim, I have covered my back on this one.
You can find simpsons episode guides, character guides and the like on here http://www.snpp.com/
There are no roles that prevent posting or put players into comas. So if you feel someone needs to be replaced, please PM me or ask in bold in the thread. (eg ModProd Antrax)
Unvotes are not necessary, but they will make life much easier for me if you do. But im not going to get upset over it and mod kill you for it
If you do not get something you expect as a result of an overnight action - please PM me just in case.
Otherwise
Send choices - No deadline yet |

I have all the confirms in - and most of the choices. You have 72 hours to get your choices in or im randomizing (by picking worst possible choices for you/your group). After night 1, im only randomizing if im warned in advance you may be away and dont want to preload your choice.
Id prefer the choices in during the next 24 hours if possible. That way I can start the game up while I have a weekend. But I wont stress  |

Dawn One, The first day of the alcohol ban
From the outside of the springfield Museum is heard a muffled thump. The curator, a small wiry man, wanders out and takes a look. Only a postal bag. Quite similar to the one the mail was meant to be in. He looks up to see a shadowy figure on the roof but he doesnt look like a mailman. And in seconds he's vanished. The curator picks up a big stick and prods it... It moves. A bit like Jelly. Jelly when prodded with a big stick. Thats what it looked like. Quickly, the curator opened the bag and removed the wobbling carcass of Mastermind of Sin, aka Waylon Smithers, Roleblocker. In the bag was a single envelope marked "Springfield Refined Operatical Society of semi-reformed maniacal killers: Dont call us - we will call you". He opened the envelope, and it proudly announced "responsibilty for the death of Smithers and said there was more to come...."
Not the dawn you all wanted.
Mastermind Of Sin, Waylon Smithers, worked for the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant and could Roleblock a player each night. Died having been thrown from SpringField Museum. (Which took me until the dawn of day 2 to actually find an image of it)
Across town, a court room deliberated on the fate of an arrested man. His lawyer, Lionel Hutz had stepped out of the room. Perhaps to do research, perhaps to do something else. There came the sound a bottle breaking and a few overhearers wandered out to see what was going on.
Pooky, Lionel Hutz, Town-cop was bashed with a bottle, presumably filled with banned alcohol. Pooky could investigate a player each night, for the purpose of defending them in court (storyline reasons).
There are 22 alive. It will take 12 to lynch.

The town gather around the statue of Jebidiah Springfield ready to vote. The voting box is opened, and to the towns surprise a vote is already in there. Unmarked as to who wrote it, but it clearly says
Vote The Cruciverbalist
And since it was on the official letterhead, it had to be taken as the first vote of the day.
And the first person to get their hands on illegal alcohol is Logain. For he is seen in the dawn staggering with a bottle marked Beer Baron. Whatever effect that alcohol had is unknown or how he came to have it. For a minute he sits down and tries to recollect last night. But he remembers nothing or how he came to have the devil water.

I think the bottle batterings are clearly related to the ban, and it's quite likely Logain was roleblocked with that beer.

Checking in.
vote: Ctorj for what DP said. Looks like scum setting themselves up for later. As much as one can in just a couple of sentences, anyway. =] In any case, it's better than random.
FOS: Mgm What does the beer have to do with Smithers? Y'know, our role blocker. Who died. Again, seems to me like someone's trying to set up a nice cover story.

One observation: The bottle is marked Beer Baron. But we know there's also a brewery called Duff. I don't know what we can conclude from this, though.
Logain: You probably don't have anymore info then the Mod gave us, do you? |

I've noticed that the two roles are described as:
Waylon Smithers - Nuclear Power Plant Employee & Role Blocker;
Lionel Hutz - Lawyer/Cop - Town;
Smithers is described as a "Nuclear Power Plant Employee" while Hutz is described as "Town". Could this be an indication of a mason group? |

In the cartoon, there was a group called the Stonecutters, much like RL Masons. I'm guessing they are a group in the game too. I don't know if Smithers was in it, though.

In response to Lauritz's question, I've never encountered a Mafia ghost-voter in any games I've played or read. They're certainly possible, but probably not as likely as pro-town ghost-voters. The official letterhead screams Quimby (to me, anyway), and Quimby's probably pro-town. Corrupt as all get-out, maybe, but pro-town.
"Springfield Refined Operatical Society of semi-reformed maniacal killers"... Sideshow Bob? He's certainly an opera fan, and it'd explain the Krusty karnage in the pre-game, but who else would be cultured enough to be a member of a group with a name like that and still be evil? Not Lisa, certainly; does Mr. Burns like opera? I'd suggest the curator that covered up Jebediah Springfield's past, but the intro would appear to clear him.
As for the alcohol... Barney died of dehydration, which makes it seem like alcohol is good in this game. But the fates of Hutz and Logain make it seem like alcohol is bad in this game. I'm thinking Homer the Beer Baron and possibly Moe are on one side of this, and Rex Banner on the other, but I can't tell which would be the good and which would be the evil just yet.
Power plant employees... Smithers, Burns, Lenny, Carl, and maybe Homer? It'd be a strange move for a mod to cast Burns as pro-town, but it'd also be a strange move to pit Smithers against Burns. Hard to say at this point. _________________ "Who slipped th'surly bonds an' kinged you the linguary?" |

I have corrected the Death scenes (Good catch whoever it was that pointed out the swap - that will punish my copy paste addiction)
To make it clear
-Pooky (Lionel Hutz) died by a bottle to the head
-Mastermind of Sin (Waylon Smithers) was thrown from the top of Springfield Museum |

OK, here's what we know from Mod posts:
Pooky was definitely pro-town and a cop. MoS may not have been and was a role blocker. Someone gave beer labelled "Beer Baron" to Logain. Someone placed a vote on The Cruciverbalist.
Not much to go on, really.
But as for players's posts, there's a little more. Ctorj is possibly setting up for a role claim. I will Vote: Ctorj because of that and Dragon Phoenix's reasoning. Further information may cause me to change this vote. _________________ I'm with me. |

I was worried that I'd managed to overlook a whole dead person, but upon double-checking, I cannot see Barney mentioned anywhere, and certainly nothing about dehydration.
- Just too strange for me to decide whether it's suspicious.

Dragon Phoenix observed something and didn't much like it. It was not a matter of reasoning, and labelling it such feels like an early attempt to make Ctorj seem suspicious while distancing yourself from the accusation.
Also, Ctorj is setting up for a particular roleclaim which is clearly townie. I do not like the idea of roleclaiming in general very much, and certainly not unprovoked like this, but I have seen many townies set up claims like this, far more often than I've seen scum do so. I think Ctorj is guilty of an extreme lack of subtlety, not of murder.

Ctorj is either on towns side with the dubious idea to hint at his role in almost his first post of the game, or a scum trying to set up a safe claim later.
That said, the Poker post (28) does not look good in my eyes either. I hate it when people are motivating their vote based on other people's reasoning - it is too easy to point fingers if that particular bandwagon turns out to be on a townie later.
Keeping my vote, but FOS Poker. |

| Let's not lynch him. I'm not convinced. I think we should look at the Cruciverbalist thing. Was it really a random vote, or does someone (Quimby?) have info on him? Cruci plays it off like the person just picked from the top of the list, but he may be trying to divert attention from this. I want to hear what Ctorj has to say. Obviously he was trying to claim Abe Simpson. Now, Abe is probably town, which means 1 of 2 things- Ctorj is scum and trying to get a safe claim, Ctorj is Abe Simpson (probably town, don't see how he could be scum) If someone actually is Abe, they should counterclaim. If nobody counterclaims, then Ctorj is probably town, because I don't see Abe as scum. |

Most characters who are claimed by mafia players are, yes.
As for the rest of it...
- I don't think that a player with an extra vote will be getting info as well. Then again, amb does like his insanely overpowered characters every once in a while. Still, I personally don't think it likely that the extra vote "knows" anything.
However, I do agree with you that CV's dismissal of the vote had an almost forced casualness to it. FOS CV for this reason.... just my gut telling me his behaviour is off.
- I am inclined to think that Ctorj is lying. I've not played a LOT with him before, but I've never seen him try and hint at his role so blatantly. I've seen him claim, yes, but this really feels like an awkward setup to me.
If he is lying, then I think DP is more on the correct path. A scum is not going to claim Abe in order to draw out the real Abe, when they could do the same with Bart/Homer/any of the major characters.
But this:
| Quote: |
| If nobody counterclaims, then Ctorj is probably town, because I don't see Abe as scum. |
is terrible, terrible logic. Like DP said, it could be a safe claim given by the mod, or he could not be in the game, or he could have a role which he does not want revealed yet.
A raised eyebrow of suspicion to Jabroni - if Ctorj is scum, then this part I quoted makes him look very shady indeed. But as far as I know, he's new? In any case, saying "if nobody claims Abe then Ctorj is town" is reeeally not right, especially if amb has given the baddies safe claims. |
