"I'm innocent, I tell you! You have to believe me!" But nobody would believe him, not even his own wife, who voted for him. That's a really cruel way to divorce. "So." the Mayor started. "This is who you've brought me." "Yes!!!!!!" the town yells. The Mayor brandishes a gun! There's several gasps from the assembled crowd. "Oh, what? No, I'm not going to shoot him. That's not very Mayoral. This is just my antique gun I wanted you all to look at." And so, Brian was led to the poorly decorated interior of the police transport van. "I'm innocent! You have to believe me!" "You said that already. Give it a rest." one of the officers said. "I didn't even want to open a grocery store! I just wanted to be a door-to-door toaster salesman!" But it's too late for any sudden career changes. ~~~ Get those night actions in!

Main Street Mafia Day One: Mass Exodus True to the Mayor's words, traffic out of the town took up two lanes as people traveled in a massive convoy of various assembled modes of transportation that were in the immediate reach to do this scene. Leaving behind a diminished police force, who looked saddened at the departure of their fellow citizens. "We don't look saddened." says one of the officers. That's because your facial exp ressions don't change. A few days later, the investigation into the corruption at City Hall led to the arrest of the City Treasurer. "And I would have gotten away with it to, if it wasn't for you meddling officers!" he said. The Mayor, the Prosecutor, and the Chief of Police stood quite proudly behind the arrested man, satisfied that they had weeded out a scumbag from their administration. However, they were quickly halted by... A huge lynch mob of the townsfolk that remained gathered to confront the corrupt politician, carrying various weapons ranging from clubs to pots to lightsabers to jerks! "What do we want?!" somebody from the crowd cheered. "A lynch mob!!!" they all yelled. "When do we want it?!" "As soon as it's convenient!!!" "Citizens, please!" the Mayor pleaded. "I know you're all really angry, but we can't stoop down and resort to this kind of violence!" But suddenly, a shot rang out, piercing the silence that fell after the Mayor's speech. The bullet hit the City Treasurer, and he flew back to the ground. The police reacted by pointing their weapons at the various buildings, but they didn't know where the shot came from! The townsfolk didn't react, since they were all used to the gunfire by this point and they wanted to know if the treasurer was still alive so they could beat him to death. "Oh screw the justice system." the Mayor said, obviously pissed off. He descended down from the Town Hall, and started to step onto the now former city treasurer. Using the body as a makeshift platform, he spoke to the townspeople. "For too long we have lived in constant fear of the Milano Mafia! It is obvious to me that there are members of the mafia amongst you. That these crimes could continue with all the other citizens gone means that some of you must be scum! Therefore, every day I want you to vote amongst yourselves and bring me whoever you think is scum. The fate of the town is in your hands!" Emboldened by the Mayor's speech, the citizens talk amongst themselves about which of their friends could possibly be scum. "Why don't we just investigate them all more thoroughly than not at all?" the Chief of Police asked. "Shut up." ~~~ Players (18): Sarah Harris, owner of the Grand Emporium -- Jackjonespaw Christopher Harris, Sarah's Husband -- Dragonfire Brian Barnes, owner of the Green Grocer -- Shadows Wanda Barnes, Brian's Wife -- Piratedave84 Eric Foster, Co-owner of Chez Albert -- Palathadric Ann Foster, Co-owner of Chez Albert -- StickFig Eugene Bryant, Chef at Chez Albert -- Dannylonglegs Carl Hill, Waiter at Chez Albert -- KingoftheZempk Irene Allen, Firefighter -- Mostlytechnic Louis Murphy, Owner of the Pet Shop -- Jamesn Katherine Murphy, Louis' Wife -- jluck Linda Cook, Owner of the Palace Cinema -- TrumpetKing Al Cooper, Owner of Al's Barber Shop -- TinyPiesRUs Pamela Cooper, Al's Wife -- Tamamono Ace Brickman, Private Detective -- Kintobar Shirley Carter, Brickman's Secretary and Lover -- def Russell Price, Dockworker -- Sandy Gregory McHenry, Res-Q Seaman -- Lady K Rules: 1) Every player has received their own character.

That's everyone! Day One will go up momentarily.

I updated the first post with updated links from a new hosting site. I used Photobucket because I've hosted previous games on it and I don't think I have a Flickr.

Just waiting on one more. What a surprise that Brickshelf is "down for maintenance" right before the game starts. I'm pretty sure this happened the last time I hosted too. The show must go on and I'll use an alternative if I have to.

Yes.

Main Street Mafia: Confirmation and Discussion "This is Ashley Frost reporting to you live from Cedar Falls City Hall, where notorious gangster Anthony Milano, Godfather of the Milano Family has just been denied bail, and is being sent back to prison to await trial." "And here comes Mr. Milano now with his lawyer! For now we'll have to wait and see how this trial plays out. For Channel Three News, I'm Ashley Frost." Anthony Milano displayed obvious anger, but deep down he knew everything would work out in his favor. Behind, the Chief of Police and the County Prosecutor smiled with satisfaction as the gangster was taken back to prison. The police were on high alert; they'd even called in a few FBI agents to help. Everything seemed to be going to plan. But even the best of plans can be disrupted in an instant. "Get down, boss!" shouted one of the mobsters, pulling a machine gun out of a violin case. How it fit in there is the greatest mystery. Milano jumped to the ground instantly. Behind them, the two FBI agents ducked into cover instinctively. However, rookie officer Wendy Cruz and Milano's lawyer stood like deer in headlights. Behind all of them, a football player seems to have fallen down. As the shots ran out, they both fell to the floor, dead. Milano got back up and rushed towards a getaway bike, as another mobster took out his own weapon to cover his boss. The other officers appeared to be in shock, but really it's just because they were forgotten about until editing this photo. "Get on, boss." said the mobster, rather nonchalantly. "Stop them! Don't let them get away!" The Chief of Police bellowed. But it was too late. Milano was on the motorcycle, sitting quite comically, as it drove away, because if they were captured then there wouldn't be a mafia game. "It's a shame that we accidentally killed your lawyer, boss." the driver said. "Meh, if he was any good I would have been granted bail." The Mayor was enraged. He slammed his fists down on the table at the Chief of Police and the Prosecutor. "I was elected on a platform to stop the crime and corruption in this city! How could you let this happen?!" he yelled. "You can't blame us, sir! Surely it must have been an inside job of sorts!" "We need to stop this and recapture Milano before we face a full-scale revolt in this city! Already dozens of citizens are packing up and leaving town! If we don't stop them, I fear nothing will save our tiny town or small city or whatever this place is!" ~~~ Players (18): Sarah Harris, owner of the Grand Emporium -- Jackjonespaw Christopher Harris, Sarah's Husband -- Dragonfire Brian Barnes, owner of the Green Grocer -- Shadows Wanda Barnes, Brian's Wife -- Piratedave84 Eric Foster, Co-owner of Chez Albert -- Palathadric Ann Foster, Co-owner of Chez Albert -- StickFig Eugene Bryant, Chef at Chez Albert -- Dannylonglegs Carl Hill, Waiter at Chez Albert -- KingoftheZempk Irene Allen, Firefighter -- Mostlytechnic Louis Murphy, Owner of the Pet Shop -- Jamesn Katherine Murphy, Louis' Wife -- jluck Linda Cook, Owner of the Palace Cinema -- TrumpetKing Al Cooper, Owner of Al's Barber Shop -- TinyPiesRUs Pamela Cooper, Al's Wife -- Tamamono Ace Brickman, Private Detective -- Kintobar Shirley Carter, Brickman's Secretary and Lover -- def Russell Price, Dockworker -- Sandy Gregory McHenry, Res-Q Seaman -- Lady K Rules: 1) Every player has received their own character.

We're nearing that twenty-four hour mark and we have the 18 players. Confirmation should go up soon before midnight EST, so expect your roles around then! This thread can be locked, please! If for some inexplicable reason you've been under a rock this past week and are just now emerging looking to play mafia, PM me ASAP!

We've reached eighteen, but I'm going to keep sign-ups open for twenty-four or so more hours. After that roles will go out and if everyone confirms we'll be ready to go very soon! I guess I haven't been too clear on the theme. It's mafia related. Sort of basic town versus scum. Except it won't be a "basic" game.

Still at least four spots open, but like I said, the more people who join past eighteen the better!

Still plenty of room! But I'm going to keep it open for awhile longer.

Hello and welcome to the sign up thread for Main Street Mafia! Don't let the vague banner fool you, you won't be assigned a mini-modular building as your character, however interesting that may be. You'll just have to wait until the action packed confirmation thread. Before you sign up, please answer the following questions: 1) Have you played mafia before and/or have you graduated from a mafia school? 2) Will you be available for the duration of the game? 3) Let's say in a totally hypothetical situation that's not going to be used when assigning you a character of course that you wanted to open a store. What would that store be and why? 4) Defiantly or definitely? 5) Please write a sixty page dissertation on the theory of mafia games. 6) That last one is a joke, please don't do that. You must also promise to not make fun of the horrible banner and the sub-par photography that's become a staple in my games. A few additional notes, I'm looking for an undetermined amount of players, at least eighteen. Fret not if you're the nineteenth person, because I've made plenty of back up roles and the mechanics of the game would work better with more players.

Expect the sign-up thread in the next couple of days or so!

I just wrote my post and then added in the loving parts after. It wasn't the best way when I was in a hurry.

This was a really fun game and I enjoyed myself a lot. I think I liked being in love with myself a bit more than I should have, but hey, love is love. As for Brickelodeon, I really thought that you were the serial killer trying to survive an extra day by voting off jluck instead of Zepher, who was blatantly scum. Your entire game was so scummy that it caused your townie actions to be thrown into question. I came across as the serial killer during most of Day Four, and I think that's why Zepher came after me. I'm not too angry though, he saved me from rhyming the entire day.

I was so off with the Serial Killer, but I was pretty accurate with a lot of other people. I don't know why I was so convinced Brickelodeon wasn't town. I'll talk more later. Congrats town!

I have a useless item and you'll save me from rhyming tomorrow, but I don't think you should kill me since, you know, you actually need members of the town? But alright. I'll answer everything that Lind "Trying to Save Himself" Whisperer has brought up. Why don't you go back and read the previous days instead of saying something like that? It's all fine and dandy to say "you haven't participated!!!" but only when that's true. Secondly, I'm not attacking whichever targets are most likely, I'm targeting the people that are scum. You, Darkdragon, and Zepher. I removed MT because I felt unsure, and I removed Fhomess as well. Hey, look, Fhomess turned out to be town. MT turned out to be scum. That's my bad that I removed him from my list. If you'll notice I've been more consistent with my scum list. Yes. I'm picking on the most likely target (read: you). You're scum and everybody knows it. You're just flailing around at this point. Yes, and that was a joke response. Again, your defense is basically accusing me because there's absolutely no way of defending yourself. You're attempting to take me with you. You're only quoting my posts and you're basically saying the exact same thing about them. You're going to be lynched today. The flailing is amusing, though.
