The first night is over. The Mafia's first victim has been chosen.
Investigators rushed to Pikachu's house this morning to find his normally neat and orderly house a shambles. Windows were shattered, furniture upheaved, books and papers lay strewn across the floor like autumn leaves. Perhaps there had been a struggle, or perhaps the invaders had been looking for something. Either way, blood had been spilt.
Pikachu lay at the foot of the stairs, quite dead. Apparently the murderer had designed his death in a gruesome parody of a Slinky toy: Pikachu's torso had been twisted around itself multiple times, and from the angle of his position it was clear he had been pushed down the staircase. The authorities told reporters to mention only this last point in the papers, ignoring the hideous coil that now made up Pikachu's midsection. There were some things it was better not to tell the public.
In any case...
PIKACHU IS NOW DEAD!
Post all accusations and counteraccusations in this thread. Remember to finish your posts with
VOTE: (player 1)
for clarity. You can change your vote by finishing a subsequent post with
UNVOTE: (player 1) VOTE: (player 2)
Another option is to vote for no execution, if you don't feel anyone deserves to die just yet. To take this path, write
VOTE: No Execution
And... guys, let's have a little better turnout this time. Last night only two Mafia members voted (I mean to imply that there are more than two Mafia members, which there are), and I didn't receive PMs from the Doctor, the Detective or the Vigilante. I can understand that the Vigilante might want to save his/her bullet for a better-informed future date, but there's no reason the Doctor/Nurse and Detective shouldn't exercise their powers every night.

"This is a tragedy. Truly a tragedy." Muttered the man called Lee, who is myself. "It's one thing when they have to have a closed casket funeral. It's another when they have to have a twisty casket funeral. Especially when Bulbs mistakes it for a slide and gets caught in it!"
"That night, I heard the voice of Mod, booming, mighty, and may I add, handsome. It echoed throughout my room, saying something about 'Nice Signature.' I thus must surmise that the mafia member must have great penmanship!"
"And as we all know, men with decent penmanship are a rarity! I heard there was one man uncommonly thin-wristed enough to write better than if he had been eating two hams at the same time as he writes, the honorable Baboon! So, it must be one of that three that don't have horrible handwriting! There are two females, and one slightly less masculine than us blockhead, toothpickin' males! Let's start chopping!"
Vote: Execute Cinders, Loogs, AND Baboon. Will narrow it down as more people vote.

“Officer, it’s really not my fault. The casket was all twisty… There should have been a sign that said ‘This is not a slide’.” Bulbs said as the police officer wrote him a ticket for public disturbance. The cop lifted a hand pointed at a sign just a few feet from the casket. It read-
“This is not a slide. This is a casket. Do not slide on it. This means you Bulbs!”
Bulbs thought for a moment and then turned back to the cop, “No hablo ingles?” The cop ripped the ticket off the pad and handed it to Bulbs. As the cop walked off Bulbs made faces at his back.
“Anyways, whoever did this obviously slinkified him so that I would slide on the casket and get caught. They obviously made that sign on the wall as well.” Someone starts to raise a hand, “Do not question my logic! Especially while I am logocateing!” The hand quickly goes back down. “So you have to ask yourself who here is good at making signs? Why none other than ch00bs!!!! Dun-Dun-Dunnn!”
Vote: Execute ch00bs

Guys, you're amazing. Both of these posts made me laugh out loud. Way to get into the spirit of the game.
Do bear in mind, Lee, that if you fail to narrow your vote later on, it will be completely ignored.

"Oh-Em-To-the-Jee! You're totally right! He wears.... SUNGLASSES! And since he is not Neo, that must mean he's a badass assassin who kicks ass. Well, at least, I assume that. Rather astute."
Vote: Same as before, + Choobs.

And just as a family whose house had just been destroyed by an earthquake, Baboon stares in disbelief. "Me?! Surely you could pose a better argument towards placing the blame on myself than to state I have nice handwriting!" @_@ Out of character: My writing actually is kinda nice, if I try: i7.photobucket.com/albums/y292/Baboonskin/IMG_0914.jpg"There truly are some very devious people among us. However, whoever is responsible for such a tragedy must have had a motive behind it! Pikachu is a very well respected member of our village and I have but no incentive to want him gone." *Baboon walks around the room slowly, before coming to rest next to the window* "YOU, however, have me suspicious! Not only have you stated in the past "(I didn't see anything, except for something where Photu said "Nice Sig". Then I realized that was the Mafia night boards, and fled.)" Is that not EXACTLY the type of thing someone trying to hide their affiliation would say?! It seems to me that in trying to hide his own guilt, he has broadly accused multiple people without so much as a good argument. Thus, I strongly believe Lee is one of the people responsible. Just the other day, I saw him playing with a Slinky as well... Do we really want a conniving, deceitful person among our ranks? VOTE: Lee

"Ah." Prime said, "That classic cliche of the crimincal reacting and accusing the accusor." He grinned, jumping off the roof of a nearby building, just for the hell of it. "However, I highly doubt Lee is responsible, his argument is broad, and not entirely proof against argument, however, it is logical. As for Andurin, I highly doubt him to be the assasin, he's a very thoughtful man, and unlikely to perform any such dirtywork himself. I have two theorys towards him. Either he is the godfather, and always wears his sunglasses to hide his ever shifting eye's, or he's a hippy, and simply wears his sunglasses to hide his bloodshot ones." Prime said, walking towards Baboon. "Though I'd be loath to condemn a man based on handwriting alone, instead, let us look at the manner in which the crime was committed. This is obviously the work of a highly creative man, or, at least, on the instruction of a highly creative man." Prime said thoughtfully. His head slowly turned, looking around. "Or a highly creative woman...." He said slowly. "The culprit can be none other than Prof Cinders herself!"
VOTE: Prof Cinders

(A reminder: Lee, the day is drawing to a close. If you don't narrow your vote down to one person, your choices will be dismissed entirely from the tallying.)

Potato, could you please clearly define a Day or Night? I know it's a 24 hour period, but will it be 7am to 7am? Midnight to Midnight? Whenever you post to whenever you post? It probably would help to know this, for regularity's sake.

"Hmmm... Someone standing here must have been responsible for the murder of our dear Pikachu!" Loogs said, thoughtfully chewing on a stick of strawberry Pocky. "Just the other day though, I witnessed a horrendous act. I was at the local grocery, when I saw Lee shopping for peas, like a normal man, when... He pulled out a PSP! And began to PLAY IT! I knew right then that it had to be him. What kind of horrible man would play such a violent device?! A MURDERER, THAT'S WHO!" She spat out the chewed remnants of her Pocky in anger, and pulled out another stick from a box to eat.
VOTE: Teh shady Lee man

It probably would help to know this, for regularity's sake. Whenever I post to whenever I post, but 7am to 7am is a pretty reasonable approximation. Maybe a little earlier, maybe a little later, but usually within that time span.

OOC: I really think the vigilantee and the detective should be in contact with eachother, like the relationship between the doctor and the nurse.

OOC: I really think the vigilantee and the detective should be in contact with eachother, like the relationship between the doctor and the nurse. Would make the Vigilante's job too easy. The balance that the Vigilante has to maintain is the hardest part of playing the role. You've got to save your bullet until you're sure you've figured out a Mafia member, but you don't want to die before you get your shot in. Add the Detective's clues to that and it becomes no problem.
