A game for 12 players.

HELP! I DrWilgy, most definitely a Doctor, keep getting taken hostage at night! All the players of this game keep making me say things that I wouldn't normally say! I'm sure it'd stop if town could just catch those pesky scum and that silly serial killer!
At night, each player may submit a message and the host will anonymously relay the message in the following start of day post. Any host messaging regarding end of night results WILL ALSO come through these messages. FOR Example a single player submitting the message "DrWilgy is most definitely a doctor!" may result a night result post like so:
END OF N1
DrWilgy is most definitely a doctor!
DrWilgy has been killed, they were town 2 shot Doctor
the host message will follow the above format as seen in 'DrWilgy has been killed, they were town 2 shot Doctor' and messages will be organized at random. Further example of hosts posts will be provided later.
Messaging from the host to players individually WILL be from the host only.
This is the host color, host color posts are to be taken as truth as well.
the Poll and Player lists will accurately be reflective of who is alive.
