Although Russtifinko never voted, Day 0 has now ended.

This thread is now locked.

I would really prefer not to continue onward until everyone has checked in, but if necessary we will move on if we have waited sufficiently.

MP interrupted the meeting.

The following employees have not voiced their opinions:

DrWilgy
Long Con
Russtifinko

So, gents, what do you think? Let's get this show on the road, shall we?

@Host: How many players have not checked in/voted yet?

There are 4 players who have yet to vote.

If this choice is public, it paints a target on the "winner." If the choice is private, this is good stuff for the spreadsheeters.

Option 5: Five players of your choice receive a rock. These rocks can be thrown at another player to block them.

These "rocks" (if they even are rocks and not bombs) could stop a kill. Rocks are our friends.
I didn't even think of this for some reason.

@Host: Is Option #1 going to be publicly or privately known?

Good question.

He anxiously watched as the numbers ascended. When he reached the 90th floor, MP rushed out of the elevator, and headed down the corridor until he reached the large conference room.

MP opened the door with force

When are you not impatient?
Also, the "opened the door with force" comment made me think that you should have included a revolving door, and how it looks like a turbine after you've gone through it, in your post.

Anyways, Right now option 5 stands out to me the most. It will be nice to have some block rocks in play. I will vote there now and consider the other options.

Ah, you're right! I totally should have. :P

And... yeah, I'm always impatient.

Changeable votes were intended, so I have now fixed the poll reflect that. Oversight on my part.

The period will end once everyone has checked in and voted.

I am anxious to hear from more of my employees.

It's Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)

Current track: Queen - Dear Friends (1:09)

I should have known. :P

That sounds like an awesome endeavor.

What's the only record? Remain in Light or Fear of Music?

Prologue: Syndicate Schemes Gaming Co.

MovingPictures07, better known as MP, walks up to skyscraper with a smile on his face. 'Today is going to be a good day', he thought.

"Hello, S~V~S!" he greeted the receptionist as he entered the building. S~V~S waved at him. MP walked into the elevator and pushed the 90 button. Thankfully for him, the elevator's speed was swift, as he was particularly impatient this morning.

He anxiously watched as the numbers ascended. When he reached the 90th floor, MP rushed out of the elevator, and headed down the corridor until he reached the large conference room.

MP opened the door with force and entered the room with excitement. "Are you guys ready to meet with RYM Records today???!!" he asked, to a room full of his employees. Silence permeated the conference room.

"Come on, this is a big day for us! Who's ready to greet our guests?!!" Still silence. MP glanced up at the clock.

"Alright, folks, I have one last thing to run by you before our big meeting."

MP clicked a button on his handy-dandy clicker and the massive projector screen displayed the following text:

Option 1: A player of your choice may ask the host whether a certain player is a certain role. That player will be told yes or no.
Option 2: All female players gain temporary BTSC for one cycle. Info-dumping and role outing is not permitted.
Option 3: Every player picks a city. Players will live in that city during the subsequent cycle.
Option 4: A player of your choice is consumed by insanity, the effects of which are unknown.
Option 5: Five players of your choice receive a rock. These rocks can be thrown at another player to block them.
Option 6: A player of your choice can use their night power twice during the subsequent Night.
Option 7: A player of your choice can track another player. During the subsequent Day, the player tracked may send a message to the tracker.
Option 8: A fake account can post and cast a vote the subsequent Day.

All of the Syndicate Schemes employees in the room read the options with intrigue.

"So, what do you all think?" asked MP. "I'm not going to tell you any details regarding these options or how they are triggered in the game, since I'm curious from a purely mechanic-based standpoint what you think of them. Please vote for your 3 favorite mechanics before the meeting!"

The employees were about to begin their discussion, but MP chimed in once more.

"Oh, that's right! You absolutely have to make sure that there are NO TIES. I need a clear ranking of these 8 options. Please! We don't have any time for ties. Ties are nonsense. And I need every single one of your opinions before we can start the meeting! Thanks!"

It is now Day 0.

Vote 3 options in the poll.
