RANDAL
How's your eye?
DANTE
(reluctantly)
The swelling's not so bad. But the FDS stings. How's your neck?
RANDAL
It's hard to swallow.
They are both silent. Then...
RANDAL
You didn't have to choke me.
DANTE
Why the fuck did you kill all those people?
RANDAL
I thought I was doing you a favor.
DANTE
Thanks.
RANDAL
You were saying how you couldn't initiate change yourself, so I figured I'd help you out.
DANTE
Jesus.
Silence. Then...
RANDAL
You still didn't have to choke me.
DANTE
Oh please! I'm surprised I didn't kill you.
RANDAL
Why do you say that?
DANTE
Why do I say that? Randal...forget it.
RANDAL
No, really. What did I do that was so wrong?
DANTE
What don't you do? Randal, sometimes it seems like the only reason you come to work is to make my life miserable.
RANDAL
How do you figure?
DANTE
What time did you get to work today?
RANDAL
Like ten after.
DANTE
You were over half an hour late. Then all you do is come over here.
RANDAL
To talk to you.
DANTE
Which means the video store is ostensibly closed.
RANDAL
It's not like I'm miles away.
DANTE
Unless you're out renting videos at other video stores.
RANDAL
Hermaphrodites! I rented it so we could watch it together!
SANFORD and the OLD MAN step into frame behind them
DANTE
You get my slapped with a fine, you fight with the customers and I have to patch everything up. You get us chased out of a funeral by violating a corpse. To top it all off, you ruin my relationship. What's your encore? Do you anally rape my mother while pouring sugar in my gas tank?
(sighs)
You know what the real tragedy is? I'm not even supposed to be here today!
RANDAL
(suddenly outraged)
Fuck you. Fuck you, pal. Listen to you trying to pass the buck again. I'm the source of all your misery. Who closed the store to play hockey? Who closed the store to attend a wake? Who tried to win back an ex-girlfriend without even discussing how he felt with his present one? You wanna blame somebody, blame yourself.
(beat, as DANTE)
"I'm not even supposed to be here today."
(whips stuff at DANTE)
You sound like an asshole. Whose choice was it to be here today? Nobody twisted your arm. You're here today of your own volition, my friend.
SANFORD reaches off screen and picks up a hockey stick. The OLD MAN nods at him
RANDAL (cont.)
But you'd like to believe that the weight of the world rests on your shoulders - that the store would crumble if Dante wasn't here. Well, I got news for you, jerk: This store would survive without you. Without me either. All you do is overcompensate for having what's basically a monkey's job: You push fucking buttons. Any moron can waltz in here and do our jobs, but you're obsessed with making it seem so much more fucking important, so much more epic than it really is. You work in a convenience store, Dante. And badly, I might add. And I work in a shitty video store. Badly, as well.
SANFORD takes a huge wind-up and smacks RANDAL in the head with the hockey stick. RANDAL's head flies out of the frame, blood spurting everywhere.
SANFORD
Douche.
SANFORD walks off. DANTE stares at the OLD MAN, dunbfounded
DANTE
What the FUCK?
(beat)
OLD MAN
Do you have a bathroom?

Role PMs and night actions will come later on when I get home. In answer to a couple of questions:
- The Mafia Tough Guy is a Goon who is immune to nightkills.
- The restriction on the Old Man was that he would have died if he vigged
Thanks to everyone for playing, particularly to the players that stayed the course from the beginning and those that replaced in to help finish things off. There were more replacements in the game than I would have liked, but them's the breaks I suppose.
More commentary and setup details from me later!

Korlash, if you'd vigged PokerFace last night then the SK would have won outright, as you would have died too.Thanks to everyone for playing, particularly to the players that stayed the course from the beginning and those that replaced in to help finish things off.

Thnx Oman!
Chooses someone to protect, And if his protectee is targetted, both he and the killer die, the protectee survives. I believe.
Not sure what happens if the bodygaurd himslef is targetted.

Smooth as silk when he's scum, and very much capable of running things from behind the scenes while appearing to be doing minimal effort. - Almost50
Xtoxm is consistently great - Shosin

If his chosen protectee is targeted for a nightkill then he dies in his place and kills the killer as well. The SK had one-shot kill protection and the tough guy was immune, so this would have worked on the vig, the godfather or the goon.
Edit: what Xtoxm said. If the bodyguard himself is targeted then he just dies.

Erg0 is an aussie so i should have guessed that.
You're welcome Peg. Had your computer gotten fixed sooner maybe you could have come back as sanford and I would have been Randal. I am yet to be an sk in "forum" mafia. I hope to get that role one day in forum. I have gotten it insane number of times in irc.
Looking back at the setup I think the Mafia may of had the advantage An unnightkillable goon and a godfather damn! We got lucky have 2 get nked and the tough one getting lynched.
Thanx for the good game everbody later

@Erg0,
What was zoneace's safe claim? did he have one? Only character I could think of left would be the lady that always tries to grab the milk at the farthest back of the freezer. Hook us up with the other actions of Veronica, Jay, and Bob when you get the chance.@everyone else except Peg,
was that claim i made in the gambit really that believable?Thanx for the good game everbody later

EBWOP: If Peg wants to comment on use of the claim he can comment but he obviously has other knowledge telling him it was not real.

The scum didn't have individual safeclaims, I just gave the godfather a list of three characters that weren't in the game. The scum safeclaims (apart from the SK) were deliberately fairly average characters, in part because they also had the option of claiming Dante if they figured out he wasn't in the game. I also thought that ZONEACE had a decent chance of being deemed town if he claimed his actual flavour, and a couple of the townies (e.g. the vig) had kinda scummy flavour as well. Overall I was trying to create a situation where a massclaim wouldn't be particularly useful for the town.
As far as the scum roles, the town had a couple of pretty juicy roles in the JoaT and Elite Bodyguard that they never really got to use. The loose idea behind giving the scum extra abilities was to prevent the town from winning the game on the back of a single power role. It was always going to be a little swingy with the number of killing roles, though I didn't actually expect the vig to kill every night due to the risk of his own death, so the kill rate was slightly higher than I'd anticipated.

Well thats a unique twist. Makes sence I suppose. If i were you, I'd have yelled to him who you were and told him to breadcrumb the letters "BoB" in his first post day 2. This is assuming he didn't know who you were and that Erg0 could relay that info in the messages.
Considering what you said about Krammer and his push on the vamp lynch I thought it was real far featched to think you would go to him and see if he was bob. First I threw out the stab vs eggchoke thing and just focused on the word kill at the start of day4. Then I considered it as i read the other nk scenes. Then i saw the over by the fridge thing and threw it out permanatly. There was no rational way you would think he was bob or go and talk to him with all that went on. That would make no sence.
Like I said I thought about lynching Xtoxm and forgetting about the gambit but considering the gambit's claim worked so well in respect to my role/character I just had to try it out. Giving too much power to me is not wise, I will abuse it, I can't help it.

hey Poker, do you mind if I quote you for my wiki page? Been meaning to put up a quotes section.
Also...
Act 4, Scene 7
SK: Okay, survived all the way to the end. Now I just have to be careful, and I'll win.
Town: Hey, are you scum?
SK: ..Yea! ...oh- OH!
^ Thanks to The Jester for that. Just couldn't help not posting it... too funny... lolz

Go right ahead man. Feel free to quote anything I said throughout the game. I'll take a look at your wiki later on.
So far I think you are better when you are Town than SK. But since I only played with you 2 times that opinion is not entirly developed. You fended off my arguments big time. And you brought up the biggest thing against Xtoxm. The idea of him not killing a guy that had his role was huge. I can't believe I overlooked that fact for so long. You have your moments of genius and idiocy but you always keep the game fun.

Role PMs
Veronica
You are
Veronica Loughran
, Dante's long-suffering girlfriend. You're a pretty smart cookie, and people don't fool you for long. Each night you may choose to concentrate your penetrating gaze on one other player to determine whether they wish Dante ill. You may PM me the name of one other player each night and I will tell you whether that player is pro-Dante or anti-Dante.You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Olaf
You are
Olaf Oleeson
, Silent Bob's metal-singing Russian cousin. You're filled with BERSERKER RAGE! You may PM me the name of one other player each night, and you will spend the night screaming heavily accented profanities at them. If anyone interrupts your "performance" by trying to attack your audience, you will fly into a BERSERKER RAGE and kill the attacker. Unfortunately you're not really that tough, so the attacker will most likely also kill you in the process.You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Old Man
You are the weak-hearted, porno mag-loving
Old Man
. You have the ability to cause permanent emotional scarring and debilitate your fellow players, but unfortunately you may not be long for this world. Each night you may PM me the name of another player, and you will use your... powers... to remove that player from the game. Careful, though; the exertion from killing too many of the wrong people may take its toll...You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Silent Bob
You are
Silent Bob
, the quieter half of the Quick Stop's drug-dealing degenerate duo. Unfortunately you've lost Jay in all of the confusion, but you've still got a few tricks up your sleeve. You have three actions, each of which you may use once only in the course of the game:
- Silently follow a player and see where they go during the night
- Stand silent watch over a player, protecting them from a single kill that night
- Distract a player with a lengthy speech about the nature of love, preventing them from performing any actions that night.
Each night you may PM me the name of another player, along with the action you intend to perform upon them.
Jay
You are
Jay
, the Quick Stop's, resident drug-dealer and degenerate. You seem to have lost your buddy Silent Bob in all the confusion. You know he can hear you though, so you can call out to him during the night, even though he's too silent to respond. Each night you may PM me a message, which I will convey to Silent Bob. This message may include information relating the game, but not anything which may lead him to be able to directly identify you as the player with the role of Jay. Note that the same rules apply to these PMs as to moderator PMs - you may not quote them in the thread. You are permitted to send only one PM per game night.You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Egg Man
You are the
"Egg Man"
, a former school guidance counsellor now reduced to playing with eggs in the aisles of the Quick Stop. You're a little weird an unfocused, but you mean well. As such you have no powers besides your vote.You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Blue Collar Man
You are the
Blue Collar Man
, living proof that roofers should be rules by their conscience. You may not have any special powers, but you're not going to stand by and let an unpleasant fate befall some unfortunate kid, so you're going to use your vote as best you can to root out the evildoers inhabiting the Quck Stop.You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Sanford
You are
Sanford
, Dante's Gatorade-guzzling hockey buddy. You're just a regular guy with a minor role (in the film), but you don't want anything to happen to Dante so you're going to use your vote and your brain to help him out.You win when all threats to the Dante's safety have been eliminated.
Randal
You are
Randal Graves
, the clerk at RST Video, the video store next to the Quick Stop, and Dante's best friend; however, title does not dictate behaviour. You believe that shaking up Dante's carefully constructed "life of convenience" is the key to allowing him to escape his situation. As such, you have made it your personal mission to rid the Quick Stop of everyone but yourself and your buddy. Each night you must
PM me the name of another player, and that player will be killed. Your imperviousness to criticism grants you immunity to a single nightkill attempt, but after this you are fair game.You win when all of the other players in the game are dead, or nothing can prevent the same.
Caitlin Bree
You are
Caitlin Bree
, Dante's former girlfriend and current obsession. Despite your apparent love for Dante, you've got a tendency to screw with his life; hence, you are a member of the Anti-Dante Mafia, the other members of which are ChaosOmega and Nelly632.Each night, have one person from the mafia group PM me the name of a player on behalf of the mafia. The named target will be killed (the player who sends me the PM is considered to have performed the kill). You may talk privately with your fellow mafiates during the night phase only. You win when all non-mafia players are eliminated, or when nothing can prevent the same.
Chewlie's Rep
You are the nefarious
Chewlie's Rep
, scourge of cigarette salesmen everywhere. You are a member of the Anti-Dante Mafia, the other members of which are ChaosOmega and ZONEACE. You are an expert manipulator, and can only be defeated by the will of the people. As such, you are immune to nightkills and can only be eliminated from the game by means of a majority vote during the day phase.Each night, have one person from the mafia group PM me the name of a player on behalf of the mafia. The named target will be killed (the player who sends me the PM is considered to have performed the kill). You may talk privately with your fellow mafiates during the night phase only. You win when all non-mafia players are eliminated, or when nothing can prevent the same.
Guy Who Shoots Dante
You are the
Guy Who Shoots Dante
. You may have been cut out of the movie but that's not going to stop you from taking another shot at killing the little fucker off. You are the Godfather of the Anti-Dante Mafia, the other members of which are Nelly632 and ZONEACE. Your semi-existence means that you're hard to get handle on - you will appear innocent to any investigative roles in the game.Each night, have one person from the mafia group PM me the name of a player on behalf of the mafia. The named target will be killed (the player who sends me the PM is considered to have performed the kill). You may talk privately with your fellow mafiates during the night phase only. You win when all non-mafia players are eliminated, or when nothing can prevent the same.
You also happen to know that the following people won't be making it to the convenience store today, for reasons which may or may not have anything to do with you shooting them:
- Heather Jones
- Rick Derris
- William Black
- Julie Dwyer
