"Gentlemen," greeted NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. "Take a seat."
As the nine NFL owners filed into the room, Goodell clasped his hands behind his back. As soon the last of the nine filed into a chair, he continued.
"As you're no doubt aware, the Players' Union, a few years back, filed a suit against the league, claiming that certain owners colluded with each other during the 2010 season to impose an artificial salary cap, thereby shaving off, oh I don't know, around a billion dollars in player salaries. The suit was thrown out, but I've received a little tip that perhaps the courts might just have gotten it wrong that day.
"Now hey, far be it for me to get all up in arms about shaving a little cream off the top," Goodell said with a chuckle. A couple of the others allowed nervous ghosts of smiles to creep onto their faces.
Goodell's look turned cold again. "But you forgot our little arrangement, didn't you?" Goodell said to no one in particular. "Ol' uncle Rog' was not let in on this little scheme. And I'm afraid I just can't abide such a lapse in judgment." His look turned predatory. "
And
I've narrowed it down to two of the nine of you in this room.
"So here's what we're gonna do." Goodell looked around the room. "
You
are going to tell me who's behind all this. Maybe I already know. Maybe I don't. If you guys manage to come to the correct conclusion, I'll make sure that everything is put right. But if you don't..."
He shrugged. "Well,
someone's
got to take the fall here."

I reserve the right to change any of the following rules at any time. I will also inform the players in thread and via PM in the unlikely scenario in which this is required.
This list is not necessarily all-inclusive. If you're unsure whether or not something is allowed, please PM me about it.
Disregarding the rules may result in consequences up to and including modkill and/or force-replacement.
If you need to talk to me in thread,
please use bold.
Additionally, feel free to PM me with any questions you might have.
Please do not use hidden or encrypted text.
Play to win.
Please treat your fellow players with respect. At the same time, please try not to take comments personally whenever possible.
Please allow for your fellow players to go V/LA.
Please keep me in the loop about your own V/LA status.
Purple is my color. Please do not use purple.
Have Fun!
Gameplay
The following vote formats are the de-facto standard on the site (aka votes should be enclosed with vote tags or bold tags. I don't care about caps/spelling/etc.)
VOTE: borkjerfkin
Vote: borkjerfkin
Unvotes are
not
required.
If it appears to be a vote for a player, I will treat it as a vote for a player. Please don't attempt to fool me or other players with regard to fake votes. Do not put votes in spoiler tags.
A lynch is achieved when half plus one of the current number of living players are voting for the same player. If this does not occur by deadline, a No Lynch will occur -- there is no plurality lynch in this game.
Twilight is the time between the 'hammer' vote being cast and the beginning of the night phase. All living players, including the most recent lynchee, may talk during this time.
Players' alignments will be revealed on death.
When killed, a player may make one informationless 'bah' post at the beginning of the next day phase and must be silent thereon until the conclusion of the game.
Please submit all night actions either via <b> tags in your quicktopic if you have one, or by PM if you do not.
If you have a night action and do not submit one, you will not take an action. I will not resolve your action on a random person.
Player List is ordered alphabetically by the initial players' names.
Alignment distribution is guaranteed to be random, determined with the aid of random.org. Role distribution was determined after Alignment distribution.
Deadlines
Days will be exactly two weeks long. Extensions may be granted at my discretion for what I feel are extenuating circumstances.
Nights will be exactly two days (48 hours) long.
Players will be prodded after 48 hours of inactivity during the day, excepting V/LA circumstances.
Failure to pick up a prod in 24 hours will result in replacement. Asking for replacement will result in replacement.

Setup
This game is a UPick! Each of you represents one of 32 possible NFL Teams. Alignment has nothing to do with conference, division, or how much I happen to like that team -- it is simply random.
This game is either
7v2
or
6v2v1
If the game is 6v2v1, A 1v1 situation at the end of the game is resolved by Third Party > Mafia > Town.
2 town vs 1 mafia vs 1 third party is not the end of the game.
1 town vs 1 mafia vs 1 third party is not the end of the game.
2 mafia vs 2 non-mafia ends in a mafia win.
