Good morning, friends! I have a feeling that today is going to be a great day, even if we might get wet! Who's up for some poker?

I don't think anyone else has brought this up, but do you think we'll see any Fantastic Four sets? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1502712/ The new Fantastic Four movie comes out in 2015.

Most of the veterans are either inactive, have sworn off Mafia, or are simply too busy.

I absolutely love 20th Century Historical Mafias! 1) Too much. 2) I'll be able to participate provided def doesn't trap me again. 3) Crimson Tide. It really makes you think how just a few men can start a nuclear war. Oh, I just saw def isn't playing. All the better, I'll stand a better chance now.

It wouldn't have mattered anyway. I'd have been lynched regardless, I also just wanted to shorten the day so Peanuts wouldn't be questioned as much. You succeeded in freaking me out. I was sure that you could reveal the vote every day. You hid the role pretty well too, you were one of the most vocal in finding an alternate solution to the hidden vote aspect when you had a way to reveal it twice. I was also nervous that you'd be able to use the Judge role twice, but then I figured that Tammo wouldn't make you that OP.

Nah, don't worry about it. I've got an extremely thick skin, and I'm used to the harshness of these games. I was a little nervous about the new players. I tried to warn them in one of my lessons about the behavior of some people. I actually used a pretty scummy tactic (no pun intended) by asking some of more former students from the last game how they felt in this new one. Did you have that ability for Day Three as well? We weren't taking any chances, because I was sure you did. I told Peanuts to vote for me. I honestly didn't expect a role like that, but the only other secret ballot game I've played in was Baritones 2, and I was killed off before the game progressed to it. Maybe there were other secret ballot games on here. I don't remember. Most of these games are a blur to me now. Looking back we were so close to lynching Adventurer1! I don't think the game would have progressed any differently though. Adventurer1, if I can give you a quick lesson (even though you've graduated), when you're the town vigilante and someone as so clearly Pro-Town as def has come out on top, go to him and claim and work with him. Also, don't take the roleplaying too seriously. We almost lost the town vigilante because you suggested that the town shouldn't work together! I was convinced for a few hours you were a third party. I'm not sure why, I just did. Then I realized I fell into the oldest trick in the book.

I will say, I had a great deal of strategies that I used in this game. When the game first started I planned on being very out in the open and pro-town. I'm usually quiet in these games and then lynched for that. I reached out to quite a number of people, including def, which turned out to be a bit of a mistake. I also pushed for a lynch of Kristel since it would have looked very good if I had done it and I didn't think Tammo would have been able to replace her. Then, when confronted, I decided to go after def, which at the time seemed smart. The governor role has been known to be scummy and also he did change the lynch from a scum (which nobody would know) to a townie. When this backfired, probably around the time where def revealed the votes again, I decided that a tactic of confusion would set up my last ditch effort, which I'll get to momentarily. Then, TrumpetKing contacted me or I contacted him, I don't remember, and I claimed Vigilante and he believed me (?). He told me he would try to convince def to take the block off of me. When Tk was killed, I was rather upset. I changed my strategy then to try to be helpful and play off yesterday since I hoped Trumpet would have talked to the town, but he didn't. Next, I asked Tammo if I could go take a picture of Bebe with wires and stuff and claim to be the town photographer. I asked Tammo a lot of weird stuff this game. When that fell apart, I moved to Plan J, Jester. I started practically thanking the town and asking to be lynched hoping people would see this as Jestery. However that didn't work and we all know what came of it. I think the last Jester on Eurobricks was put into one of Def's games, so I hoped he would have picked up on that, but sadly he either didn't get it or didn't care to get it. Regardless, I did have fun. It was the first Mafia since February. There's not much coming down the pipeline from what I see, but hopefully someone comes up with something. Everyone spam Hinckley and ask for the Baritones 4.

Did you really think I was the town vigilante? I was so flustered when you were killed because you were probably the only one who would believe me and defend me.

Told you guys Bebe was a man. Vote: Bebe / Badboytje88 Oh, wait, the game is over? Damn. It was a lot of fun! It's just a damn shame that I was blocked and then Def cornered me and caught me in a lie. I thought that commuter was a pretty good role. I even had a good "item" too. There's not much more for me to say. I worked pretty hard on that life story, too. Hats off to Def anyway for making this the shortest Mafia game in Eurobricks History.

That's awfully scummy, Bebe. My vote will be staying with you. Everyone. When I turn up as town tomorrow, please vote for Bebe.

The town is following Da Shen's every word and the scum are of course going to jump on this easy bandwagon.

No, I'm town. Everything will be somewhat clear tomorrow and maybe very clear during the Conclusion. I think everyone has voted for me already, so it's too late for the vote to change since it'll be unanimous. Thanks guys!

Perhaps I want to die.

Same thing, except this time a clarification.

I'm voting for Bebe, since I believe she's scum. I urge all like minded townies to vote with me and lynch Bebe. Clearly, she is the smartest lynch target. Plus she's secretly a crossdressing FBI Agent.

Have you ever heard of sacrificing a player? But no, I don't think that Da Shen is scum any longer. No scum player would drive so hard against a member of the town after lynching one of his own the previous day. When I turn up as town tomorrow he'll simply say I was freaky and move on, but he'd be at risk of being lynched himself. I think he's just seeing FBI Agents in his soup wherever something suspicious might be. It's why I didn't trust the investigation result he got, especially after he came to me and claimed that I was the one investigated when in reality I was not and it was really Paco. That's why I didn't vote for Paco yesterday. I'm not sure what happened with Juan or Katalina's votes, though. I'd also like to raise a point that Paco made yesterday in his albeit desperate attempt to save his own skin. What if there are Ferrari's out there? (And I don't mean the cat). Breaking the fourth wall for a little bit, if you remember the Ferrari Family did show up in the Sign Up thread opener. That can't just be a throwaway. I think that there's at least one Ferrari out there, perhaps even recruiting other players like a cult. I'm not sure if the cult idea is viable considering the low amount of players in the game, but I definitely believe there's a third party out there. With all that being said, I'm not sure who I'll be voting for today, since I'm obviously not voting for myself. Also. I'm sorry that I posted complete utter nonsense yesterday. I was just nervous that I was going to die and that I was being railroaded without any evidence.

Was I not blocked last night? A night kill, presumably by the scum killer was performed regardless. If you're operating under the assumption that I'm the scum killer since there wasn't a kill on Night One (I was blocked then too apparently), and there was a kill now, how could I be scum? There's no longer any evidence that suggests that I'm scum.

Masked Builder is probably the vigilante. By the power of advanced mathematics, we can deduce that Bebe is FBI. Vote Bebe.

If I really wanted myself out of the game so I could pass the scum kill role on (Which I don't have since I'm town) then I'd be editing my posts and quoting my role PM and breaking all the rules. I'm not doing that though, which proves that I'm town. Vote Bebe.

You must trust me on this. Let's all go ransack her room and I'm sure we'll find some equipment.

I saw her last night when she thought nobody was looking, and it turns out "she's" really a man! What else is "Bebe" hiding? Possible wires and other FBI equipment? I think so. I'm voting for Bebe. I urge all like-minded townies to join me.

Bebe is terrible. Let's all vote for Bebe.

I also believe there are only three scum. Four scum would be extravagant, however I also think there's a chance that there's a neutral party here, perhaps the Ferrari's.

Would you prefer I just lie and say I'm not a Malone? Have you ever considered you're wrong? You've obviously been wrong before, and I'm looking at yesterday as the prime example.

Let me tell you all the story of my life, from my birth to now. I was born in the Presidential Palace fifty years ago when my grandfather was President of Noctorno Island here. My grandmother was a secret drunk and my parents were rarely around, since my father was consolidating support for his own eventual run for President. As a result, I was raised by my grandmother, who loved me dearly despite her drinking problem. I was told from a young age that I was exceptional at reading and writing, but maybe the teachers were just afraid of my family. When I was six years old I started playing the piano. I wasn't very good at it and I kept the entire palace awake at night playing bad renditions of excellent music. I decided to take up the drums, and maybe join a Jazz band one day, but eventually I returned to the piano. I still have it in my own palace, but with practice and age I've gotten much better. As I grew I started to attend private schools in America where I could get a quality education, since Noctorno Island didn't have good public schools back then. At this time, my father had taken power from my very old grandfather, who wanted to retire and live the rest of his days as an alpaca farmer out in the wilderness of this island. He died, mauled to death by an alpaca a few months later. Most people couldn't believe such a docile animal could harm the elderly man, but I think my grandfather abused the alpacas. Sexually. In the United States, I was able to attend one of the most prestigious Ivy League schools simply due to my fathers status. However, trouble was brewing on my happy island. Our citizens were becoming aware of this "democracy" thing. I was under the impression that Noctorno Island was already a democracy. After all, we have a President. What more could the people ask for? I was forced to return home and I took up a post in the Noctorno Army to quell the rebellion, but my father needed help. That's when we found the Malone family. They were very eager to help us out as long as we turned the other way to their illegal activities. My father agreed, but he died a few weeks later of a mysterious disease that suddenly killed him. Our doctors didn't know what it was and neither did I even though I was also appointed Surgeon General. I took office as President of Noctorno Island and immediately continued operations with the Malone family. Sure, it would have been nice giving food and public education to my people, but I like working for the Malone's better. My first act as President was to adopt a national anthem, which I composed myself. However, being such a good pianist I was able to come up with an amazing anthem that doesn't use the piano. That thing is just too heavy for the marching band to drag around wherever I'm making a formal appearance. My second act as President was to establish a Bank of Noctorno Island, which I became the Chairman of. People yelled "Benito, that's a conflict of interest!", but I said "I'm not interested in your conflicts." And I had them all imprisoned. Unfortunately since our population is so tiny a small chunk of our people are current in jail for life. But that's okay, because who needs them? I don't need them telling me that I'm conflicted in my interests. My next act was to build a giant bridge from here to Noctorno's neighboring island. Sure, it's ten miles away, but building a bridge is an excellent way to put people to work and promote great thinking. The environmentalists told me that I would devastate whole ecosystems, and the President of the island I wanted to build to told me that a bridge was not necessary and he wouldn't grant me permits to build it in his land. But what did I say to them? I told them, you're wrong. Building bridges is a great way to promote thoughtful thinking. The bridge is only fifty feet long at the moment, and the project is postponed, but it'll be finished eventually, I'm sure. Speaking of unfinished business, I could tell you about the time I started building a Noctorno Stock Exchange, before being told it would be a massive waste since nobody would want my currency and I don't have any companies on Noctorno that are publicly traded. I could also tell you about the time I doubled the police force just so I could build another police station. Wait, that's a good thing. Well, maybe not for the people, because the police are all in my pocket and in the Malone's pocket. Bearing that in mind, where are the police right now to rescue me from these nutcases who want to lynch me? Don't I have a personal bodyguard? I'm the corrupt despotic President of a small island nation. Where's my personal guard? This is even more implausible than Dystopia Mafia, in which the Governor of California flew on a plane with everyone else instead of a government owned jet. That reminds me when def was so sure I was scum in that game, and he lynched me, and I turned out as the vigilante. I see some similarities. But I digress. That's not a part of my life story. I've told you mostly about my life. It's pretty impressive, I'm a big deal here on this island. If that heartbreaking/warming life story didn't convince you that I'm town then you're a lost cause. I'm a loyal Malone. I think you spelt Malone wrong.
