The small town of Oaken Den, located in the northern forests of Maine, wakes up to a fine if chilly morning. A fisherman in the quiet town goes out to a nearby river to cast his line. On the rocky shore, he spots something, like a gauzy transparent lump sitting behind a large boulder in an oddly whimsical fashion.

Welcome to a new and exciting game of GOG Mafia. This is GOG Mafia 6 - Three Roads to Hell. However, as many of you have already realized, this is by no means a normal game of Forum Mafia, lighthearted and filled with puns and harmless drama. This is something darker. I hope it sticks with you.

The man pulls off his fishing cap to get a more clear look at what appears to be a large piece of litter, perhaps a plastic sheet of some sort, as he approaches. He can make out the outline of a body within. Suddenly unnerved, he backs away from the body then runs to his house, twenty yards behind him. The placid breeze ruffles the sheets of transparent plastic quietly by the calm waters.

RULES
Gratefully borrowed from Bazilisek, who was given them by Damnation, who no-good dirty bastardcock stole them from Zchinque, who had received them from Damuna, who had originally borrowed them from him anyway. And people made changes.

1. The moderator for the game is GhostQlyph. Should you need to contact me, you can reach me through the PM system of this forum.
2. All players have a vote, which they may place on any player. A vote may be withdrawn by unvoting. Once a player has more than 50% of the votes, that player will be lynched and the game will go to night. No amount of unvoting can prevent this.
3. A player may also vote nolynch. A majority of nolynch votes will end the day without a lynch.
4. You may not post in the game thread during night phases.
5. Please remember to bold your votes and unvotes like this: Unvote GhostQlyph, vote Damnation.
6. When you are dead, you are dead - stop posting. A single "bah"-post is permissible and encouraged.
7. Don't ever, under any circumstances, edit your posts. This is very important! Editing a post is grounds for being modkilled. Two consecutive posts of the same user in a short time frame will merge, creating the appearance of an edited post. The time limit after which this stops happening seems to be 10 minutes (investigated by Vitek), but you might want to err on the side of caution.
8. Please bold any requests for votecounts or questions to the moderator. If at all possible, try to make them replies to the moderator.
9. Do not discuss the game with anyone outside the thread, except for people specified in your role PM, and then only at such times as the PM specifies. Breaking this rule will get you modkilled.
10. Do not quote or paraphrase too closely any PMs you receive from the mod. If you are afraid that your paraphrasing is too close, contact me and I'll take a look at it.
11. All players should post at least once every 36 hours. If you expect to be away for more than 36 hours, please let me know either through PM or in the game thread. Failure to do this will result in me sending you a prod via PM and in thread to which you will have 24 hours to respond.
12. The time limit for a day of in-game time is whenever the mod damn well pleases. If no one has the majority of votes when the limit is over, the day will end in a nolynch. There will be ample (and very loud) warning before that happens.
13. If you can no longer participate in the game, let me know and I will try to find a replacement.
14. When the game ends, any player whose win condition has been fulfilled wins the game, even if that player is dead. Players who are modkilled or have been replaced will automatically lose the game.
15. All roles have NOT been randomly assigned. Knowing this will not help you in the least.
16. THE GAME IS NOT CURSED I SWEAR TO GOD
17. IGNORE RULE 16

Here's a sample Town Vanilla role PM:

"You are: Caitie Reid

Caitie Reid used to be among the most well liked member of the small Maine town of Oaken Den. Among her good friends were Jamie Heath and Luke Testa, and she was on her way to college and success. Like a firework, her star was rising bright and fast. And like a firework, it burnt out before it could reach its apex.

Win Condition: You win when all threats to the town are removed in some fashion, even if you yourself die.

Post Restrictions: You have no post restrictions.

Powers: You have no abilities.
You have no night actions.


In order to use night actions, PM me with the action you wish to take, your target, and any other relevant information. I will PM you with the result."

The fisherman waits huddled in a chair while the phone rings. Finally, someone picks up.
"Hello?" The voice of a tired Jack McGorrian.
"Jack! Oh thank god -- She's dead... Wrapped in plastic."

It is now Day 1. With 14 alive it takes 8 to lynch.

I'm calling it: it was her father.
My monies on Luke.
Orgy gone wrong....
Luke sounds like a Cowboy name....

I know precisely what happened. The moderator killed her!

Let's try that again:

Rodzaju: Let's try that again:

Picking on the only true Newbie, Rod? Vote Rodzaju

Looking at it, the roles were NOT random, Ghost already said several 'interesting' roles were given to the more experienced players. Therefore, chances are the Newbie got a vanilla role.

That could be complete baloney though of course, and just a case of Ghost pulling our plonkas a little....
No no, blaming her closest friends would be obvious.
Our game is supposed to be twisted and far from that... right?

Therefore, my bet is on Jack McGorrian - suspiciously tired already in the morning.

GhostQlyph: Damnation, who no-good dirty bastardcock stole them from Zchinque
Hey, it was done with good intentions! :p I only twisted it to my own agenda?

Also, why are people posting so much? It seems to me day 1 has yet to dawn?
Life in plastic, it's fantastic!

Robbeasy: Picking on the only true Newbie, Rod?
Hmmm, you left out Thiev... interesting. Trying to protect your scumbuddy? I think it's not rhetorical question, it's assured. :-P
Vote Robeasy.

You no-good dirty bastardcock helpful reminder man. Indeed, I forgot to post day one, but because I waited until all PMs were in before starting the thread I don't think that matters much. Just call it day 1, I won't mind.

Oh, and Bazilisek: people who know what the beginning is an homage to will be at a distinct disadvantage.

Modvoice out.

Why, you're quite welcome :p I was just puzzled by it, nothing more :p

Well, let's dig into the accusations, then! I propose we witch hunt nmillar, 6th game not drawing mafia? I think not! Let's hear the crazy probability mathematics at work once more!

It's not yet clear whether or he is mafia in #5.
Or do you know something we don't?

You got a pretty good point there. I'm just acting on my theories for that game - should keep it out of this. I apologize and will retreat to my shadowy corner

Actually, no, I don't. I probably know a lot less than that. I was merely throwing something random out in this early stage in order to get nmillar to butt in and explain why he isn't the bad guy - you stand in for him instead. That's quite interesting.
