Welcome to the game of chills and thrills, and churning burns. This is an open setup called Fire and Ice. All the roles are known. The team sizes are known. But will it be enough?

This is a multiball setup, with two scumteams. One is fire, one is ice. Night kills will be obvious as to which team killed whom. Mafia groups can kill each other. All role PMs will be public. Fire and Ice - MafiaWiki If anyone is wondering, I was a player in 522 and 556.

The game will consist of 2 Fire Goons, 2 Ice Goons, 1 Town Doctor, and 9 Vanilla Townies. That's one more VT than the normal setup.

Fire Mafia Goon

Welcome, [Player Name]. You are a Fire Mafia Goon, along with your partner, [Player Name].
Abilities: Factional communication: During the night phase you may talk with your partner here [QuickTopic link]. Factional kill: Each night phase, one of you or your partner may perform the factional kill.
Win condition: You win when the other mafia team is eliminated and you control 50% of the town or nothing can prevent this from occurring.

Ice Mafia Goon

Welcome, [Player Name]. You are an Ice Mafia Goon, along with your partner, [Player Name].
Abilities: Factional communication: During the night phase you may talk with your partner here [QuickTopic link]. Factional kill: Each night phase, one of you or your partner may perform the factional kill.
Win condition: You win when the other mafia team is eliminated and you control 50% of the town or nothing can prevent this from occurring.

Vanilla Townie

Welcome, [Player Name], you are a Vanilla Townie.
Abilities: Your weapon is your vote, you have no night actions.
Win condition: You win when all threats to the town have been eliminated and there is at least one town player alive.

Town Doctor

Welcome, [Player Name], you are a Town Doctor.
Abilities: Each night phase, you may protect one player in the game from being nightkilled.
Win condition: You win when all threats to the town have been eliminated and there is at least one town player alive.

Role PMs will go out in the next hour or so. Please confirm in thread and begin!
 
By confirm, I of course mean just confirm that you got and understood your role. Don't announce what it is unless you intend to claim. I thought I should make that clear for our new players.

All but two role PMs are sent. Madlib and PSK, please clear space in your inboxes.

Day 1 has begun. The deadline will be at the end of Saturday, September 6th, Eastern Time. With 14 alive, it takes 8 to lynch.

Just got the PM.

Been awhile.

Let's see where this thing takes us.
 
I would like to confirm that the Mark has confirmed. Seems slightly suspicious. :lol:

I confirm your confirmation of my conformity....uhhh...confirmation...

I find your suspicions suspicious.
 
*clutches head*
 
Given the numbers, I would say that random or haphazard selection of a lynch target has a good chance of hitting a town player.

Even though random and haphazard is almost the only option on day 1....

Pointing out the obvious here, I know...
 
I'm ready. Let's do this!

666 in the avatar, double posts, suspicioning suspiciousness and now you want to lynch a town huh. I've got my eye on you :shock:
 
Confirming.

Ain't no double posting here.

I had another thought and we're not allowed to edit previous posts.

Also, I never said anything about wanting to lynch town....

Blimey, it was just a silly off the cuff page 1 accusation.

Getting a little defensive aren't we...???

It's possible he and Thor were 'distancing'.

Yep.

I mean, you basically just said I was scum and wanted town dead.

Of course I'm a bit defensive.
 
On another note...If my reading of the PM's in the OP is right, the scum teams have not had private coms yet.

I forget precisely, but I think that is normal for a Pasch game.

It's also possible Thor is trying to make you think that.

Or it was the usual first-post banter.

BTW Pasch, are you sure you didn't mean "chilling burns"?

"Churning burns" isn't making much sense.

About half an hour ago, he posted requesting 2 players make space for their role PMs (game signup thread). If scum talked Night 0, could he have started the game without a player receiving their role PM? If scum talk Night 0, then they're both town; Pasche wouldn't make that mistake.

It's possible you casting aspersion on us to deflect away from your scumminess. It's possible this isn't butter.

When playing as scum, I generally engage my teammate in a confrontational (yet meaningless) manner, just to set a tone for the game.
