Okay, you're making way too big a deal out of this. Everyone knows that this is a mafia game and it was stated in the Sign Up thread that there are Not Loyals Petra spends too much time listening to the gossip of Dad's 'associates'. Also, keep in mind that Petra wasn't the only one to acknowledge the threat to the family before Dad officially confirmed it. See? If you're going to go around accusing people, you should at least try not to pick pointless reasons to do so.

Yeah, this is obviously the best course of action. It makes me rather uncomfortable as well. Henry's accusations are pretty wild, but that alone isn't enough evidence to start casting stones upon him. I know that Henry is inclined to vote for that little girl, and the little girl is probably going to vote for Henry, but what about the rest of us? Does anyone else have any suspicions. I would love some, but I think I should grab some napkins first; I wouldn't want to suddenly get a chocolate goatee like my brother!

I agree that not being able to talk in private could possibly handicap us, but it could also save us from being tricked into giving away vital pieces of information by the Not Loyals. Although collaborating with fellow Loyals about theories, night actions, etc. is a good thing, you can't be sure that the person you're talking to isn't a Not Loyal trying to pry information out of you. Keeping everything secret would make it hard for us to lynch all the Not Loyal members. However, if we keep only night actions a secret, and form our theories and the like of which in public, then I think we can still reach accurate convictions based off of behavioral patterns. This is, as Petra said, our best option. Every coin had two sides, and in an ordeal like this one, it's best not to go to one extreme or the other. Okay, I understand that you're trying to help the de-Belle ville family as you can, but I have to say that this option is totally ridiculous. If everyone roleclaims, then the protectors will know who to protect, but what's to say that they will protect the wrong person? Then we'll have lost a vital member of the Loyals. However, it's a bit early to be thinking about night actions, instead we should be focusing on convicting a Not Loyal today. Aww, don't worry Richelle. We'll get those mean Not Loyal family members and make them pay for threatening our safety and happiness!

We must eradicate this threat to the family as quickly as possible! We can't let disloyal family members take down Dad's great empire!

Great job, LCM, the interior of the theater looks much better with the extra seats. The sign is also pretty well done; do you plan on adding a tile built sign/a decal to it?

And impress they do! I love the tractor attachment, and now I can clearly see that you've improved the JD dealership's architecture a bit with the rounded sign. Do you plan on making more attachments (leaf blowers, etc.)?

Still looking good, LT! I love the way the JD dealer looks when put into the town, and the yellow tractor attachment is a pretty nice design. Could you post close-ups of it? Anyways, your town is looking great; how much do you plan on expanding it?

Thanks, Doc! I'll do my best.

We are what we are. Oh, good! It's so easy to lose track of people during these family reunions.

Tammo de Belle-ville has arrived! Now, where's my lovely Richelle at?

I love the tractor, LT! I personally think that the roll bar is perfect where it is, but for the lights (the orange lights hanging off the roll bar), the bottom light (on both sides) should be a black 1x1 plate, and the top one (on both sides) should be a 1x1 trans-orange plate. Keep up the good work!

Headstrong by Trapt, Starlight by Muse, and Becoming the Bull by Atreyu. Strange mix, I know. Twenty-five seconds and I have a headache already!

Wow! The Winter Post Office looks wonderful! The main building itself is nice, but the old fashioned car and the gazebo are fantastic! I think I spot the 'German Shepard' dog in the color that it was in the Pet Shop, the new ponytail piece in orange (from PQ), a saxophone, and a banjo. This set looks great to me!

Wow, great dealership, LT! I love the way you designed the roof with the green plates and grille bricks, and the inverted slopes 'holding up' the sign give the entire store a really nice touch. I'm certainly looking forward to the tractor! By the way, how do you make your decals? Do you use waterslide decal paper or something else?

While I am happy that the theme is city-oriented (instead of a fairytale theme or a Disney princess theme), the news about the weird doll-like figures is quite disappointing. Although my main reason for being excited about this theme is the (hopefully) town-themed buildings such as cafes and theaters, it would have been nice to get a new female hairpiece or torso/face print. Can't say I'm surprised though, as most 'girl' sub-themes don't contain real minifigures (Belville, Clickits, Scala).

Great idea, LCM! There are so many great concepts for a 'mall' theme (pretzel stand, shoe store, cosmetics store, etc.). I think a 'bring your own mall vignette and we'll piece them together' would be a great idea for Brickworld or some other convention. Everyone could build their own part of the mall (of course we'd have to all collaborate - we don't want there being too many of a single store!) and then bring it with them to the convention and we could put it all together there.

Happy birthday Draggy and Alice! Hope you two have a great day!

Thanks, Follows Closely! I have been thinking of giving the walls some texture, and a red or black tile row for the roof to rest on is a good idea. I'll keep your suggestions in mind!

I don't know if this has been posted yet, but I called The Learning Express and asked about Series 5, and they said that it doesn't come out until August.

Thanks for the great review, Whitefang! I have to admit, I wasn't too impressed by S5 when the pictures from the Toy Fair and the digital images came online, but seeing this has changed my opinion completely!

Thanks, icy brick! A take-out window is a great idea, but I don't know if it will fit. I'll keep the idea in mind, though! Thanks, Badger! I'm currently working on the floor, and let me tell you, tiles make a big difference!

Thank you very much, Rumble Strike and Leg Godt Gud! Thanks, dr_spock! Railing around the opening for the stairs, huh? I'll look into it!

I would love to play! I have played in one game before; I was Claudia Toscana in Sandy's Escape from Isla Paradisa Mafia School. I have no travel plans for July. My PM will be sent very soon. I really hope you'll consider me, as I would love to play in an advanced game!

Incredible ice cream parlor, Mariko! The exterior itself is great, but the real star of this MOC is the interior! The counter, the ice cream bins, the red and white tiles, the freezer full of ice cream... Fantastic job, Mariko!

Thanks, SilentMode! I'll keep your suggestion in mind.
