That depends on whether or not the hosts allow teammates to send in actions for the inactives. I allow that when I host.

Ah okay, I didn't think of that.

@HOSTS can teammates send in actions for each other?

Yes, mafia are permitted to submit a single team PM instead of individual ones.

Yubaba had settled down again. The money and the gold was flowing in her bathhouse. Business had been great this fortnight, no one had been complaining in the floors below, and the Spirits continued to pour through the front door.

Meanwhile, life continued as usual in the working floors. All was peachy. Well almost everything was peachy. Matt stood in the corner looking rather lonely. He felt as if no one could notice him. This lack of interaction with others made him feel empty, although in reality he didn't know what to feel. He didn't know what to think about.

Suddenly, he saw a young cleaner walking in his direction. This girl looked rather nice. Matt felt a tad bit warmer inside.

"Will you be my friend?" Matt asked?

But the girl paid him no heed. She picked up a bucket and sponge next to him and walked away with it, whistling a tune to herself. Matt lost that temporary feeling he had experienced in that fleeting moment. He was completely empty now. Without a thought or a word, he felt his being disappear, as if he was never truly there.



Bern (Matt) has been lynched. He was Kaonashi, a No-Face.
Long Con is no longer a pig.

It is now Night 2. You have 23 hours to submit your night actions.

S~V~S wrote:Also, bearly possible that secret roles may have a choice of powers. And powers fitting the original source is usually not done here completely as not everyone is familiar with the source,and that would hinder those who did not see it

@Hosts~ does one need to have seen the movie to understand how the roles work?

Linki ~ I think Eloh is more involved when she is bad. When she is civ she tends to lose interest unless she has BTSC.

No, watching the film should not give you a leg up on anyone who hasn't.

All roles have been written as explicitly as possible. If there are (Secrets) involved, they are intended to be unknown to everyone but the user.

DrWilgy wrote:@Hosts: Would Mr.Radish's ability still work the phase after he is NK'd?

linki - I've been murked while silenced before and it kinda felt like one of those "It is what it is" type situations, but I guess it boils down to opinion though. "Which is the worse of the two evils?" type question I guess.

Yes. If a player is nightkilled, their power still goes through normally.

Yubaba was absolutely furious. Everyone was going to pay for what happened to Boh yesterday. She went tearing around the bathhouse, casting spells left and right. Long Con was unwittingly twiddling his thumbs in a corner. The very next moment, he had no thumbs left, for he had been turned into a pig.

Sloonei was outside cleaning the windows. Yubaba gave him a good blast of magical energy that knocked him from his perch. Down Sloonei went, into the ocean many floors below.

The rest of the Bathhouse staff faired better, but not much. In her fit of rage, Yubaba did not let a single one of her employees escape. And thus, she took every single one of their names, leaving in its stead a placeholder.

Long Con has been turned into a Pig.
Sloonei has been Nightkilled.

It is now Day 2. You have 48 hours to lynch somebody.

Night 1 has ended. Give us a few moments to sort through some really important stuff.

In the meantime, feel free to admire how cute this Susuwatari mug is.

Up, up, up on the top floor of the bathhouse, thellama73 was angry. Yubaba was gone. Nobody had visited him in days, and he was feeling oh so lonely. What he wouldn't do for a friend right about now.

"I'm really going to cry!" He said.


This always worked. Yubaba always heard him when he wailed as loud as he could, and the doting and attention would come. Sadly, Yubaba was nowhere in earshot. And so thellama73 continued to cry, and cry, and cry. He crawled underneath his mountain of pillows, never to come out again.

Thellama73 has been lynched. He was Boh.

It is now Night 1. You have 23 hours to send your Night Actions in.

There are a little under 2 hours until the deadline. Don't forget to vote!



It is in your best interest not to miss it.

Well now that sounds unproductive. :P

Quin wrote:WHY IS THERE NEVER A NO LYNCH OPTION

What's that?

Against her will, Chihiro followed her parents through the moaning train station, over the brook, and up the stairs into an old carnival ruin, or so she thought. Chihiro's parents quickly discovered that this place was not deserted, and found heaps upon heaps of delicious food just waiting to be eaten. They sat down and dug into this fine feast, eating more than humanly possible, eating so much, one might have though they were prize pigs.

This turn of events shocked Chihiro. She suddenly felt very alone in this world of strange spirits and animals and ghosts. Fortunately for her, this world was not devoid of mercy and good will. Even Yubaba, the witch who ruled this domain and controlled the fate of her parents, offered Chihiro a job at her bathhouse instead of forcing her to share the same fate as her parents. Thus, the adventure officially begins! Will Chihiro be able to save her parents and herself?

Day 1 has begun. You have 48 hours to lynch somebody.

Which animal would you rather be turned into?

Sen (Chihiro Ogino) --- Sen is a 10-year old human girl who wandered into Yubaba’s domain as a result of her parents’ curiosity and greed. She signed a contract with Yubaba, protecting her, and giving her a job at Yubaba’s hotel. --- Because Sen signed a contract with Yubaba, she cannot be turned into an animal by her. However, Sen still yearns to save her parents (who were turned into pigs), and return to the human world. Sen may search each night for the help of another player to achieve this. (Secrets)


Haku --- Haku is a dragon, and was once a river guardian in the human world, but he was forced to move on when the river was overrun by humans, and is now under the control of Yubaba. --- Haku begins the game under Yubaba’s control. If Sen finds Haku, he will be freed from Yubaba’s control. (Secrets)


Lin --- Lin is a friendly and respected employee at the bathhouse, and tries to make those around her comfortable. --- If a lynch results in a tie, Lin may break the tie.


Kamaji --- Kamaji works hard in the boiler room, with the help of the Susuwatari. He’s a cranky but kindly old geezer, and his six lengthy arms help him get the job done. --- Kamaji may add a vote to any player during a lynch six times during the game. If the Susuwatari do not keep up their hard work, then Kamaji will lose one of his extra votes each time.


Susuwatari [4] --- Susuwatari (wandering soot) are little soot beings that work for Kamaji. They have been put under a spell and given life, but must work to keep that life. --- Susuwatari must work hard each day to maintain their status as living beings. Together, they must combine to meet a daily post quota (dependent on their number and the game population), otherwise the spell will break, and impact Kamaji.


Chichiyaku --- Chichiyaku is the bath manager in Yubaba’s hotel, and to suit his position, he is a bit brusque. --- Chichiyaku may redirect another player’s night target on even nights. Chichiyaku will distribute a Bath Token on odd nights.

Aniyaku --- Aniyaku is Chichiyaku’s assistant, and shares his personality. --- Aniyaku may target a player each odd night and force that player’s lynch-vote for the following day. Aniyaku will distribute a Bath Token on even nights.


Aogaeru --- Aogaeru is a frog-like creature with a good scent for unwanted beings, such as humans. --- Aogaeru may send a message to the thread through the hosts each night.


Kaonashi --- Kaonashi is a No-Face, a powerful creature that feeds off the emotions of those around him. --- Kaonashi may target two players each night. In doing so, he will gobble the first player up and steal their night power to use on the second player.


Oshira-sama --- Oshira is the Radish Spirit. He is large and imposing yet also endearing. --- Oshira may hide another player each night, removing that player from the following lynch poll.


Zeniba --- Zeniba is Yubaba’s older and more powerful twin sister, she is actually more laidback and refined. Zeniba enjoys knitting, baking cookies, and living in a small rural home. --- Zeniba may invite another player to her cottage each night, protecting that player from death. But her magic will continue to linger through the following day phase, cursing that player.


Yubaba --- Yubaba is the younger of the two twin sorceress sisters. But she is the most ambitious and avaricious. Yubaba enjoys gold, good business, and turning humans into animals. --- Each night, Yubaba may turn another player into an animal for the following day. Animals cannot post in the thread or vote in the lynch poll.


Boh --- Yubaba’s giant and powerful baby son. Boh just wants a friend to play with, but he also doesn’t want to play outside for fear of getting sick. --- If any player targets Boh with a night action, he plays with them instead, blocking them. (Secrets)


Kashira --- Kashira are Yubaba’s three bouncing and rolling pet heads. They grunt, but otherwise appear to be mute. --- Kashira may silently add a vote to any player during a lynch three times during the game.


Yu-Bird --- This vulture-like bird acts as a scout and a spy for Yubaba. --- Yu-Bird may track another player each night.



Stink Spirit --- He stinks something awful. None of the folks at the bathhouse are willing to go near him, and wish to keep him out. --- The Stink Spirit cannot be lynched or nightkilled. (Secrets)
