Well, to be perfectly honest, that kind of thinking is kind of what lead me to suspect you some, but due to the votes being placed already, even if I was sure, that option wouldn't be available, anyway.
I'm playing D&D tonight so probably won't have time to read up... will try tomorrow evening.
No worries. Have fun, go out and own some monsters, etc.
Also.. neon... completely off topic, but check out my kol-character.. i got my custom avvie the other day *grins*
Will do! :)

D&D tomorrow night too, so maybe no time then, well actually i have a hunter game from 9.30am till 2pm then the kids come home from school, then after they are in bed i have D&D till 11pm... soooo i'll try over the weekend.

We killed monsters, about 40 goblinoids. Then my DM killed off my NPC love interest.. I cried..

Back on topic.. I'm sure we will sort this out... eventually.

Yeah. I dunno. About all I can say is that I like bethelmark better than ziliu, given our choices.

Ugh. So close!

I personally felt my play made it obvious I was the SK, as the one kill attributed to the SK just so happened to be performed in the
exact same manner
as the rest of my kills...

Anyways, good game guys.

Ironically, I just bought Thud! today, and upon seeing Brick's introduction, I knew we lynched the right guy. :P

For the record, I really was allowed to unvote. I just invented the restriction to make the vig claim a little more believable.

Truth be told, I think you're pretty lucky I hadn't read the book yet. I don't think I would have bought the inability to unvote thing if I'd actually read Brick yet.

PlayerName: stark
Quote:
Name: His Grace the Duke of Ankh, Commander Sir Samuel "Sam" Vimes.
Role: Cop.
Flavour: You are the Commander of the Watch. You have spent years on the streets fighting crime, honing your instincts and familiarising yourself with every piece of the city. Consequently, when looking someone straight in the eye you can tell whether or not they are being honest with you.
Special Powers: You may investigate a player every night to ascertain whether their intentions are good or bad. PM the name of that player in the night phase to do so.
Win Condition: You win with the town.


PlayerName: Harry_Potter
Quote:
Name: Lance Constable Salacia Delorisista Amanita Trigestrata Zeldana Malifee "Sally" von Humpeding.
Role: Tracker.
Flavour: You are one of the Watch's new recruits. As a vampire, you were recruited to improve the accuracy with which it represents ethnic diversity in Ankh-Morpork. You were accepted because you are a Black Ribboner (a vampire who has sworn off blood). You have, however, retained your traditional vampiric powers. As such, you have the ability to transform into a swarm of bats at night and follow people around. This process of transformation is, however, very exhausting and, no longer fueled by the unnatural energy that comes from drinking blood, your body cannot handle the process on consecutive nights.
Special Powers: You may PM the name of a player to follow that player around at night to see what places they visit. You cannot do this on consecutive nights.
Win Condition: You win when the evil element has been eliminated.


PlayerName: Neongrey
Quote:
Name: Constable Igor.
Role: Doctor.
Flavour: You are the Watch's resident physician and experimental scientist. As an Igor, a clan of servants from Ãœberwald, you have extraordinary surgical skills and access to a broad selection of spare body parts. Consequently, you are able to deal with most injuries if you arrive on time.
Special Powers: You may PM me the name of a player to watch over every night in order to repair any harm that player may come to.
Win Condition: You win when the town is no longer terrorised by evil.


PlayerName: ziliu
Quote:
Name: Corporal Cecil Wormsborough St. John "Nobby" Nobbs.
Role: Mason Cop.
Flavour: You have been in the Watch for many years and know Ankh-Morpork very well. With your partner Sergeant Frederick "Fred" Colon (PlayerName), whom you know and trust, you patrol the streets at night. Together you two have finely honed instincts.
Special Powers: You may talk with your partner Sergeant Frederick "Fred" Colon (PlayerName) at night, whom you know to be innocent, and together you may investigate one player's alignment by PMing me that player's name. This ability does not require both of you to be alive.
Win Condition: You win when the town has eliminated the bad guys.


MOD NOTE: Naive.

PlayerName: Lloyd
Quote:
Name: Sergeant Frederick "Fred" Colon.
Role: Mason Cop.
Flavour: You have been in the Watch for many years and know Ankh-Morpork very well. With your partner Corporal Cecil Wormsborough St. John "Nobby" Nobbs (PlayerName), whom you know and trust, you patrol the streets at night. Together you two have finely honed instincts.
Special Powers: You may talk with your partner Corporal Cecil Wormsborough St. John "Nobby" Nobbs (PlayerName) at night, whom you know to be innocent, and together you may investigate one player's alignment by PMing me that player's name. This ability does not require both of you to be alive.
Win Condition: You win when the town has eliminated the bad guys.


MOD NOTE: Naive.

PlayerName: Keys Myaths
Quote:
Name: Mr. Shine.
Role: Troll King.
Flavour: You are the legendary Mr. Shine, King of the Trolls. You have a deep spiritual connection with Trolls. You can read their hearts and know how to help them. This connection has helped you sense that there is a Troll in need of your help close by.
Special Powers: You may attempt to approach a player to try and find a Troll in need every night by PMing the name of that player.
Win Condition: You win with the town.


MOD NOTE: Mr. Shine will convert Brick to Townie if he chooses to approach him at night. Also, because of his hard diamond skin, Mr. Shine is immune to the first attempt to night-kill him.

PlayerName: Gin Fizz
Quote:
Name: A. E. Pessimal.
Role: Townie.
Flavour: You are one of Vetinari's clerks. You have been sent to check up on the Watch and their efficiency. Efficiency and sobriety at all times are important to you. Since you have been around Watchmen, however, you have started to feel differently. You are not sure what is building up inside you, but you think your life might change significantly very soon.
Special Powers: You have no special powers.
Win Condition: You win when the evil element has been eliminated.


MOD NOTE: After three people have died, A. E. Pessimal will realise he has missed his calling in life and will be made Acting Constable in all the excitement. This will give him a one-shot day-kill ability.

PlayerName: starkmoon
Quote:
Name: Bashful Bashfullsson.
Role: Townie.
Flavour: You are a Dwarf Grag. This is the Dwarf equivalent of a religious leader. You are widely respected in the Dwarf community and you know the Dwarfs of Ankh-Morpork very well.
Special Powers: You have no special powers.
Win Condition: You win when the town has overpowered the bad guys.


PlayerName: Nai
Quote:
Name: Ardent.
Role: Mafia Godfather.
Flavour: You are part of a group of dwarfs new to Ankh-Morpork who uphold the more traditional Dwarf way of life. You work for this group of "deep-downers", dwarfs who never see the sun, as a liaison with other races. This puts you in a position of power and as a charismatic individual you know how to use it. Though your "bosses" may think otherwise, you decide on what course of action to take. Following traditional dwarf lore, you deem other races inferior. You know that destroying them is the only way to make a good Dwarf society. Helmclever (PlayerName) and Grag Hamcrusher (PlayerName) agree with you on this and will follow your advice. Also, as a persuavive talker you can fool people with a disproportionate amount of interest in your intentions.
Special Powers: Every night you and your accomplices may decide to kill someone. PM me the name of the player you want to try to kill to do so. If you decide not to kill someone, please submit a "no-kill." Your accomplices may disagree with you, but it is ultimately your decision what to do every night.
Win Condition: You win when the Mafia is in the majority.
Safe Claims: Captain Carrot Ironfoundersson, Sergeant Cheery "Cheri" Littlebottom, Sir Reynold Stitched


MOD NOTE: Ardent will turn up innocent to Cop investigations.

PlayerName: Big Reichmeister
Quote:
Name: Helmclever.
Role: Mafia Goon.
Flavour: You are a Dwarf without a clear direction in life. Recently, you have been taken up by a group of fundamentalist Dwarfs and you have come to believe in their ideology. Following traditional dwarf lore, you now see that other races are inferior. You know that destroying them is the only way to make a good Dwarf society. Ardent (PlayerName), whose commands you follow, and Grag Hamcrusher (PlayerName) agree with you on this.
Special Powers: Every night you and your accomplices may decide to kill someone. PM me the name of the player you want to try to kill to do so. If you decide not to kill someone, please submit a "no-kill." The responsibility for this PM lies with Ardent (PlayerName) although you may send in the choice in his place if necessary.
Win Condition: You win when the Mafia is in the majority.
Safe Claims: Captain Carrot Ironfoundersson, Sergeant Cheery "Cheri" Littlebottom, Sir Reynold Stitched


MOD NOTE: Helmclever has never been a devout believer of traditional Dwarf lore. Under the Cop's scrutiny he will start to talk. If that happens, his Mafia buddies will have to waste their night-kill on him to keep his lips sealed. This kill cannot be stopped.

PlayerName: EnderX
Quote:
Name: Grag Hamcrusher.
Role: Mafia Goon.
Flavour: You are a Dwarf Grag. This is the Dwarf equivalent of a religious leader. You are a "deep-downer", a Dwarf who never sees the sun. Following traditional dwarf lore, you deem other races inferior. You know that destroying them is the only way to make a good Dwarf society. Ardent (PlayerName) and Helmclever (PlayerName) agree with you on this. Your "deep-downer" beliefs make it hard to change the course of events on the surface, so you rely on Ardent (PlayerName), your liaison, to carry out your wishes.
Special Powers: Every night you and your accomplices may decide to kill someone. PM me the name of the player you want to try to kill to do so. If you decide not to kill someone, please submit a "no-kill." The responsibility for this PM lies with Ardent (PlayerName) although you may send in the choice in his place if necessary.
Win Condition: You win when the Mafia is in the majority.
Safe Claims: Captain Carrot Ironfoundersson, Sergeant Cheery "Cheri" Littlebottom, Sir Reynold Stitched


MOD NOTE: The responsibility for the night-kill goes to Grag Hamcrusher if only Helmclever and Grag Hamcrusher are left.

PlayerName: bethelmark
Quote:
Name: Brick.
Role: Serial Killer.
Flavour: You are a lonely city Troll. Among your kind you are ridiculed for the cheap stone you are made of and you do not have many friends. This has led you to turn to Troll drugs. You are under its influence most nights because it makes you feel indestructible and on top of the world. Even though you are a demure and kind troll at heart, in this state you have come to the conclusion that you are not to blame for your problems with society. It is clearly everyone else's fault.
Special Powers: Every night you may PM me the name of someone you want to try to kill. If you decide not to kill someone, please submit a "no-kill."
Win Condition: You win when everyone else is dead.


MOD NOTE: Brick will turn up innocent to Cop investigations, because Brick is kind at heart.

I've underestimated my access a bit. Very sorry about that. Thanks CES for posting that. I'll try to reconstruct the night choices (I have a fully prepared file on my home PC, but I can't reach that at the moment).

I enjoyed writing the flavour, but I think I will go with pre-written next time. I just ran out of time (and, to be honest, movitation) to write what I wanted to write. I had a big final scene planned and a few other things that I would have liked to add. My access from now on will be a lot more extensive, so I might still add some bits in, but I'll have to see.

Thanks everyone for playing, btw.

I don't think scum had much of a chance after Lloyd's excellent deadline day 1, but I'm still pleased with how the set-up worked.

My night choices, for what it's worth, are as I think I've said: Stark night 1, and Ziliu every night since.

First two nights were basically a coinflip; I wasn't sure what to do with two claimed cops. Subsequent nights, I stuck with the given.
