Dystopia: Day 7

[JimBee]

The sun was setting on the sixth night of the survivors being stranded. Ellen Allison/ Eskallon was being accompanied by a particularly wise figure, both unknowing that they were being stalked.

"...Yes, you'll be safe with me tonight, Ellen." said the friendly figure.

"I cannot thank you enough", she replied. "You may not realize it, but you are our savior tonight. Without you making the right decision, we would have all died".

Suddenly, the dark figure whipped around. It had heard footsteps behind them, and sure enough, the two figures that had killed together on previous nights were aiming to kill again.

"Move out of our way!", said the one with the hatchet.

"No! Stay away!", the first figure replied.

The killers didn't listen. They came at Ellen, ready to strike. But the first figure pushed Ellen out of the way.

"Run!" it yelled. "They're not going to kill anyone tonight!"

And they didn't. Ellen and the friendly figure got away safely, and the madness was to continue on for another day. In the morning, the five remaining survivors awoke, and were pleased to see that they were all still alive. But would this be the Sanes' last chance at survival?

The number of votes needed to reach a conviction today is 3. Please wait until either Ricecracker or myself have announced that you may vote before doing so, once 24 hours have passed since the Day started.

The Rules:

This game will follow the basic conventions of a Mafia Game. Each "day", you will be given 4 real days in which to vote for someone to kill. The day will end as soon as a majority decision is reached, or when the 4 days are up. If someone has been convicted, you will find out their loyalty shortly after end of the day. After this a night phase will begin, which will last 2 real days. Then the cycle will repeat. Those players with night actions must PM them to Ricecracker during the night phase. If we do not receive them within the two days, they will not be counted.

- There will be two main sides in the game. Your winning criteria will be included with your character PM.

- Voting is to be done in the day thread, and should follow the following format: Vote: Character (Player). Please note the use of bold. This is the only format that will be accepted. To unvote someone, the same applies: Unvote: Character (Player).

- There is a 24 hour limit at the beginning of each day. You are not allowed to vote during this time.

- You may not edit your posts. Violation of this rule may result in a moderator kill.

- Please avoid posting out of character (OOC) in the game thread.

- Do not ever directly quote something the game moderator(s) have sent to you via PM, whether it be your character information, night action results, or any other form of communication. Violation of this rule will result in a moderator kill. You may of course paraphrase any information you receive; if it is your own words then it is fine.

- Do not discuss game tactics or "play the game" outside the game thread, including in the General Discussion thread. You may communicate privately via PM, but this is at your own risk, and should be considered part of playing the game.

- Please be considerate towards the hosts. We will try our best to stick to the schedule, and your cooperation will help this greatly, particularly getting night actions in promptly.

- There may be certain punishments for not reaching a conviction during the day. Said punishments are final, and are to be obeyed.

I made a huge mistake yesterday but at the same time I must thank the person who protected me. If Samantha hadn't then we would all be dead. Well through tonight we have learned one thing for certain. Myself and Samantha are Sane and we were targeted by 2 insanes. Richard Ricardo was not out of his tent on night 5 when the two hatchet killers were present making him sane and not one of the two.

That leaves Shirley and Pryce. Now I know I got it wrong yesterday but this time there is no possibility that anyone else can be insane. As well as that they are actually the two people who I have not heard from away from the public group here. I did trust Shirley a little yesterday and did not think she was insane but well I was wrong.

The Day 7 topic will be closed until further notice. An issue has come up, and needs to be solved before the game continues. Thank you for your patience, we'll have this solved as quickly as possible.

Also, please refrain from asking about this in the discussion thread or to the hosts. Thanks.

It was the middle of the seventh day of the five remaining survivors being stranded. On edge, everyone was keen to vote. But something had gone wrong...

Shirley Dover had been taking a very long walk, and thought. She got so lost in her own thoughts that she in fact came up with a crazy idea. She came running back to the camp where the other four were debating about who to vote off that day.

"Hey! Hey guys! Everyone!" she yelled. They looked to her. "Hey! I just thought of something! What if this game... of life could be over?".

Everyone looked at her quizzically. Ignoring this, she continued.

"Okay, so what if we could just live in peace together? No more killing, no more deceit... what if we all just lived in harmony? What if we created a Utopia, a perfect place of peace?"

Still confused, and now bewildered, the other four glared at Shirley.

"Alright, I am Insane", she admitted. Everyone gasped in horror. "--But let me finish. Haven't we all become a little crazy on this island? Killing people every day... I'm no worse than any of you. But we can stop all this, before we all die. Rescue seems unlikely now, after seven days of this madness, so we need to unite. Create a community. Live the rest of out lives here. We could create a paradise..."

The four paused. Then, all hell broke loose.

"Lynch her!" Ellen cried.

"She's crazy!" yelled Pryce.

But before anyone could do anything, something very strange happened. A large, white object zoomed towards Shirley. No, it was not a polar bear, but a flying car! It had descended from the sky, sent by the mighty mgods above.

It hovered near the freaked Shirley for a moment, and then a brilliant blue beam came shooting out of the front of the car, zapping Shirley.

"Eek!" she screamed, before it was her own organs that were fried this time. She died instantly.

The four remaining survivors gaped at the smoking carcass of Shirley, as the flying car drifted away. They had no idea what had just happened, but they weren't going to wait any longer for an explanation. Action needed to be taken, because it was certain that there was still one Insane among them...
