The Rules

1) You do not talk about the game outside of the thread unless your role tells you to. The exception to this is that any player may tell any other player that they need to post more (ie, prod).
2) If you do not think you will be posting for a while, please let me know. I
will
replace inactive players.
3) We are doing a day start, and Day 0 instead of lynching a player, you will vote on a theme. Majority of votes will automatically give us a theme, or I may institute a deadline, at the end of which the theme with the most votes will win.
4) Night 0 you will all send in role names and I will make and distribute roles. After everyone receives their roles, everyone will get a chance to use night abilities, including the mafia.
5) Lynch will be decided by simple majority. Votes must be in bold, and unvoting is appreciated for clarity.
6) In case of a deadline, there will be a no lynch. Once a person has reached majority, unvoting will not save the player.
7) Quoting a PM
OR ATTEMPTING TO QUOTE A PM
from the mod will result in a modkill. Paraphrasing is your friend.
8) Upon death alignment, role name and role will be revealed.
9) Questions may be asked in the thread or through PMs. I love loopholes and you may get a cookie for finding one.
10) DO NOT EDIT YOUR POSTS.
11) This game is about having fun, so post often and in good spirits.

Day 0: First post

As you wake up from your deep sleep you hear moans all around you. You look around to see a room filled with 11 other people. As you all wake up, everyone starts to wonder what in the world is going on. A few of the more assertive people try to introduce themselves to the group, only to realize that they do not even remember their own name!

It strikes you as funny at first... until you try to remember your name, and realize that you are similarly struck with amnesia.

Before anyone can really grasp the severity of the situation a voice comes on over the loud speaker.
"Hello? Can you hear me now? Oh ok... WELCOME honored guests! I am sure your travels have been hard and tiring? I hope you had a good little nap, he he. I am in charge of this little social experiment and would appreciate your cooperation. All of you have names, and some even have special talents and abilities, but you will not remember them until you figure out the common thread between all of you. If you can do that, along with a few other simple experiments, you will all be free to go, and handsomely rewarded! That is all for now, good luck!"


With that the speakers cut off, and the room plunges into silence...

WELCOME TO UPICK HELL!!!
Please select your poison... I mean theme in an orderly fashion by voting. A simple majority on any theme is required to end the day... you may only vote for one theme at a time.

Good luck!

It's kinda limited on the number of characters you can take.

You mean there aren't enough characters in Brawl? Or that there are not enough players? Cuz the first one isn't true.

There may be enough characters for everyone, so it would be enough to build a regular game.
But since you pick your own character and some charcaters are more popular I imagine some players will have to try some times before they get a vacant one.

Dead Rikimaru:
I want Snake.
Twomz:
Sorry, but it's taken.
Dead Rikimaru:
Ok, Sonic then.
Twomz:
Taken too
Dead Rikimaru:
Samus?
Twomz:
let me seeeeeee: taken.
Dead Rikimaru:
Mewtwo?
Twomz:
Not confirmed yet as a character.
Dead Rikimaru:
Mario?
Twomz:
Taken!
Dead Rikimaru:
Meta Knight?
Twomz:
So taken.
Dead Rikimaru:
Grrrrrrrrr, Link?
Twomz:
Taken!
Dead Rikimaru:
Ok, who isn't taken yet?
Twomz:
I can't say, this would confirm which charcaters are in the game.
Dead Rikimaru:
But I already know that Snake, Sonic, Samus, Mario , MetaKnight and Link ARE in the game. I also know that Mewto will not be in the game. Isn't it confirmed enough?
Twomz:
Ah, the loopholes...

Ok, good point Rikimaru. Still there are enough characters, and even enough popular ones: 23, of which everybody can choose the character they think is the coolest, because there are like 10 extremely cool characters, and I didn't even consider the assist trophies.

How about a SSB: UPICK where a charcater, to qualify, must have been in at least one game in a nintendo console and NOT been present in any of the previous SSB games?
This would give a chance to all those cool forgotten characters...

Why don't we just do all video game characters and we all live in a little video game village?
