Steely Dan Mafia [ENDGAME]

It's a real occasion for hey nineteen people.
Deacon Blues
They call Alabama the Crimson Tide

You want a name when you lose. We get it. If you are killed, you will receive an invincible account that can post but cannot vote or be targeted by anything. If you ae lynched, however, you’ll be drinking scotch whiskey all night long and dying behind the wheel- that is to say, out of the game. Expanding man, indeed.

Pretzel Logic
Where did you get those shoes?

You got them from the guy that got lynched that Day, right? Each Night, you will use the lynched number’s ability. It may not make any sense, but you aren’t joking, son.

Reelin’ in the Years
The things that pass for knowledge, I can’t understand

The weekend at the college might not have turned out like you planned, but there’s something else going down if you’re feeling frisky. Each phase you survive, you reel in one role check, but once you cash in those checks (during any Night), you’ve checked out and accrue no further credits. Stow away the time.

Doctor Wu
Katie tried- I was halfway crucified

Are you with them doctor? Can you hear them doctor? Of course not. Before the poll ends each Day, you may send, through the host, an invitation to someone for your doctoral services. You of course don’t actually protect them, but in exchange for your “services,” you will have control of their Night action the next Night should he or she accept. Oh, and one more thing: If your role gets exposed in any capacity (except your lynch), you will be shown to be a traditional doctor with secrets.

Do it Again
Wheel turning round and round

People often return to their vices, and you make sure that they do. Each Night, you will force someone to vote for the same person he or she voted for the Day before. In addition, that person will be forced to target the same individual he or she targeted the Night before, if any.

Bodhisattva
Can you show me the shine of your japan, the sparkle of your china?

The Bodhisattva is one who has attained Nirvana but sticks around to save others. You protect someone each Night at the expense of your own life and by the shine of your Japan. Won’t you take me by the hand?

Any Major Dude Will Tell You
Any minor world that breaks apart falls together again

If a civilian is lynched, you will offer words of encouragement to everyone through the Host that Night.

Aja
Up on the hill, people never stare- they just don’t care

Invite your guest each Night to join you up on the hill, where no one is staring or caring- there’s only Chinese music and banyan trees. While in your care, your target is too relaxed to carry out any Night action but will be protected from any negativity from anyone with murder on his or her mind.

Kid Charlemagne
On the hill the stuff was laced with kerosene, but yours was kitchen clean

You thought you could turn the world around with LSD, but all the “white men” on the street- cocaine- made you obsolete. Fortunately, there’s gas in the car. Yes, there’s gas in the car. And you still have plenty of supply left. Feed your target a tab each Night, and while that cat’s having a cosmic voyage, only the words in his or her role description are available to him or her the following Day.

Black Cow
I can’t cry anymore while you run around

When you’ve had enough of someone, the Night prior, tell that person to drink a big black cow and get out of here. That person is silenced and may not vote during the next Day phase.

Peg
And when you smile for the camera- you know I’ll love you better!

Smile for the camera. Beautiful. If anyone targets your target at Night, you’ll take some pictures, and from these pin shots, the name of the actor will come back to you. It’s your favorite foreign movie.

Hey Nineteen
That’s ‘Retha Franklin

The Cuervo Gold and the fine Colombian indeed make tonight a wonderful thing, but you’re looking for someone with less experience to share that evening with. You can choose someone who has fewer posts than you at the end of the Day phase, target that person at Night, and enjoy BTSC the rest of the next phase.

Time Out of Mind
Tonight when I chase the dragon, water will change to cherry wine, the silver will turn to gold

One night, when you chase the dragon, you will target someone. If you picked a civilian, the silver will turn to gold, and there will be another Day phase right after the next one. If you went after a mafia member, then the water will change to cherry wine, and there will be two Night phases. Oh, and put a dollar in the kitty.

FM
No static at all

Clarity is key, and that fosters the good times. Each Night, you pick three Steely Dan songs to spin. If the first selection is in the game, it will appear on the front page in its complete form (not including secrets). If not, then the second selection may be. If that one isn’t, we’ll try the third number. If none of them are in the game, that’s too bad. Give her some funked-up music, man.

Makin' up the rules as we went along
1. This is a closed set-up. You may role claim, info dump, lie, or whatever you want (except copying and pasting your role PM). But at what cost? :mafia:
2. No editing or deleting of posts.
3. No BTSC (Behind the Scenes Contact/Conversation) with anyone other than your specified BTSC partners and in the specified BTSC location.
4. No double-targeting (targeting the same individual with a power twice in a row) or self-targeting unless otherwise given permission.
5. Be respectful and remember that this is a game.
6. Dead players should not post on-topic and should post in dead red. There is a "dead" button when posting for this function.
7. Off-topic posts should be in off-topic green. There is an "OT" button when posting for this function.
8. Posts from non-players should be in non-player blue. There is a "np" button when posting for this function.
9. Sloonei is the mod on duty. Yell at him and not one another.
10. Votes are changeable.
11. Day periods last 24 hours. Night periods last 24 hours.
12. All questions for the Host should be directed to me privately. If I feel a public answer is warranted, I'll act accordingly.
13. Pick Donald.
14. Have a blast and do the Purdie Shuffle.

Two Against Nature

Donald Fagan and Walter Becker walk into a bar.

That's it.

They'll find out who is going to be the punchline.

It is now Day 0. You have 48 hours due to the risenness of Jesus Christ to vote and check in.

I'm not answering. I'm asking a question.

My actual response would be "Jay's suspicions is shite"

Ok nova, I knew I had seen it somewhere as your opening post.

Ok so we are arguing over who's bad. So far nova feels like the same civ nova I've seen three games in a row. JJJ I can't read worth a damn, as usual. And where is everyone else? Is the night before Easter some kind of family night?

Well, I usually like to check things out like whether its typical of the person before I decide the action indicates someone is bad. But Jay is not me and I've seen him do this first-post thing before as a civ, so I'm not too fussed about it right now.

I'll be in and out.

Also sorry guys my internet went out there for a bit.

Leetic - Good

I like the honesty upfront, and it doesn't look like a pre-emptive attempt to skate by. Baddie Leetic strikes me as someone that'd perceptive enough to not give that impression. I'm more wary of slank covers when one gets prodded or at key game moments, not when the game has just started.

Matahari - Good

Could have easily gone the other way. The punctuation is giving me iffy vibes
