You wake and gather in a clump, in the front yard of the house exactly at midpoint of the street. As far as most of you can tell, nothing out of the ordinary happened overnight.
As had been decided before everyone retired for the Night, toDay you will begin the task of destroying whoever--or whatever--is behind the bizarre happenings of late.
ToDay, you will decide, by popular vote, which of your neighbors you will kill in cold blood.
----------
With a starting pool of 20 players, 25% or more of the players must vote toDay, or no lynch will occur. If less than 5 votes total are cast by Dusk, no lynch will occur. (rule 8)
With a starting pool of 20 players, the lead votegetter must receive at least 4 votes. If no one receives 4 votes or more by Dusk, no lynch will occur. (rule 9)
With a starting pool of 20 players, if the lead votegetter receives 15 votes, a 12-hour Countdown will begin. If the lead drops below 15, the Countdown will pause. (rule 12)
If no Countdown is started, the Day will end on Monday, April 6, at 6 PM Central Daylight Time (4 PM Pacific Daylight Time). (rule 13)
Note: For toDay only, I've labeled these with the rule number, in case there is still any confusion about the voting threshold rules. If there are still questions, you can ask them in the Rules Thread, or PM them to a mod.

If someone wanted to, and had the know how.... I would be eternally grateful if they set up a website with a countdown.... bonus points if it has "Final Countdown" playing on a loop in the background.

Get a room anywhy - you don't need to wait for a "reason", do you? The April fool thing is still making this board a bit crazy... we now have 2 Pauls, 2 NAFs and 2 Bufftabbys - but I like all three so for now I'll take it as a bonus So - let's get started: Player 1: Lynch all lurkers Player 2: Random-vote on Day 1 - but vote early and vote often Player 3: Can we talk about a mass claim? Player 4: In a game of 20 players - I say we got 4-5 scum Did I miss anything? This is (so far) the best strategy I've seen on Day1: Punish Anti-Town behavior. I'm not saying we lynch someone based on one anti-town-action. But we look for Anti-town behavior in players. Thing like fluff (without stuff), lurking, smudges and - based on me getting vig'ed (and almost lynched) on Giraffe - it seem there is a lot of players that thing talking about "Mafia" as in the general game of Mafia and not in this game of mafia is scummy. I don't agree - but hey - if that's the consensus then so be it.

Yeah... I won't be randomly voting anybody this game.... that caught me way too much guff on GB.
I would say that you forgot to mention the curse.... but that seems to have been broken, so I don't think it applies.

Vote: paulwhoisaghost For seemingly joking around in the Night 0 thread...when, in fact, there's usually a thin line between joking and saying stuff that is real but that you think and hope everyone will take as a joke. Also (and to get metagaming off to start), he says he still didn't get a role PM almost RIGHT BEFORE the actual game started! Uh, really? Funny because I got my role PM a looooooooooong time ago. Like, about 15 hours ago. So I find it weird that they'd delay someone a PM that long, especially only a little while before the game is going to start. I smell a fib. WHY he'd be fibbing, I don't know, but I smell one. And YOU COCKSUCKING MODS! WHY THIS ROLE? Dammit.

Yes! Finally I'm town again.
Just popping in to say hello and to let you know I'm here. I probably won't be posting much today as I'm at work now and have a soccer game immediately after.

Checking in. I'll be popping in and out but we're in the middle of a huge job at work so I'll be doing silly hours for at least another day and probably two. I'll be keeping up and posting, just might not be my usual mega posts yet.

Idle do you have a restriction to post in the style of Santo Rugger or have you always had such a colourful turn of phrase? ;D

@ Paul: oh yeah, that's the shirt. You know I'm working on an Arrested Development mafia game, right? So, where's that room?
I'm going to have to look at that "unusual conversation Night Zero" pede refers to.

Guys, we have fancy new vote/unvote tags. Simply replace the () in the following with [].
(Vote) idle thoughts (/vote) Vote: idle thoughts
(Unvote) idle thoughts (/unvote) Unvote: idle thoughts
The spaces on either side of the player's name are necessary.
Now let's hope I've done this correctly so I don't look like an ass.
