Rust and Ruin, you guys made it to page 10! i dont actually. i dont make one until about 2 hours before the end of the cycle, when i start to work on the writeup.

The Village. Flogs can't be lynched. If you're assuming Flogs is already dead and Winsting is around to be lynched, then Bleeder would win, since Winsting would be dead and the party wouldn't have dispersed. Come to think of it, I need to figure out which comes first, the Lynch or the Party Dispersal. . .

All parties will be lynched. If no one votes, then everyone gets lynched.

I sure can. A Few things about the Extortionist Role, if an Extortionist targets Player A and tells them to Player B, I do three things: 1) I check if Player A can legally take that action. If so, they use that action to target player B. 2) If they can't, I check if they are taking a different action. If so, they use that action on player B. 3) If they aren't taking an action, I see if they have any actions available for them to take. They choose one at random and use it. In your scenario, you are having Extortionist Carol tell Constable Adam to target random player Bob. I would have to check if Adam can legally perform the Constable kill. If Constable Dave is already performing the Constable kill, then that action is spoken for, and Adam can't use it. The only way you would be able to redirect the Constable's kill is if you found the constable who was already doing the kill. If Two or more Extortionists target the same player, and give them contradictory orders, I will flip a coin to determine which one takes precedence. If an Extortionist tries to make a player take an illegal action, they will not be told they failed. The only feedback an Extortionist will get is if they get roleblocked.

There's just under 12 hours left in this Turn, and I am astounded by the level of activity. Good job guys!

Wait did I? If so that was a typo. No one has more than 2 roles.

Please do! It's lonely making Spaghetti without questions.

Welp. Finally awake. Time to answer questions while i make spaghetti. Dowser is guanateed to be a Dowser/Smuggler. They already have two roles, so can't be anything else. One message per turn. Or 4 if you are a Gossip, or 7 if you are a Gossip/Gossip. It does.

Please wait 10 minutes to post about your PM. EDIT: Or 24 minutes. Whatever. PM's are now all sent.

One AM: Bleeder walked step in step with Dowser, letting the greasy man think he was in charge as he made his way towards Lord Winsting Innate. The man was an idiot, but worked as easy access to the party, as he never treated his girls as anything other than decorative bracelets. Replacing her had probably been the best day of her life, and it gave Bleeder an opportunity to melt down a bad alloy. She eyed Winsting’s painting of Woman in Ash as Dowser began to talk. “It’s ugly as sin. I can’t believe this is what you’re having us ‘bid’ on. A little cheeky, isn’t it?” Bleeder examined Lord Winsting as he responded, tuning out the rest of their conversation. He was a monster, cold and uncaring of the damage he did to the people of Elendel. She would enjoy opening his throat. But she had a problem to solve first. She smiled prettily and vacantly up at the massive bodyguard standing protectively behind Winsting. Flogs was said to have hazekiller training, be a full feruchemist and Mistborn, and to have been touched by the faceless immortals. She was certain all were false, but he was at the very least a Twinborn. A Sooner. Not the kind of person she wanted to tussle with until she was certain she had the drop on him. There was a lull in the conversation. She smirked at Winsting. “Aren’t you frightened?” The man frowned and looked at her, noticing her for the first time as a real person. His eyes flicked down to her feet, then up to her head again before settling on her eyes. “Frightened, my dear? Of the people in this room?” He was suspicious of her, good. “No, that your brother will find out,” she paused, as if unwilling to speak openly, “what you do.” “I assure you, Replar knows exactly what I am.” She, Bleeder, Paalm, Replar Innate, did know exactly what Winsting was. She had considered showing up to this party as his brother for all of a second. It wouldn’t have caused the chaos she needed, and would have required leaving survivors to spread the word that the Governer was here. “The governor’s own brother, asking for bribes.” “If that truly surprises you, my dear, then you have lived too sheltered a life. Far bigger fish than I have been sold on this market.” He looked away from her, looking instead to Dowser. “When the next catch arrives, perhaps you will see.” He turned away from them and headed towards a passing waiter, his massive Twinborn following him. Bleeder followed Dowser away as he began to mumble to himself about the possibilities of a bigger catch going for sale. She waited another five minutes as she examined the room, watching as groups formed. She had some good ideas of who she would need to kill to get a full firefight started, but hadn’t been sure of where they would each be during the party. Finally, she slipped out of Dowsers reach, and tapped Steel. She slipped away as her perception of time slowed down. Dowser didn’t have time to react as she pulled his gun and fired. She waited until the bullet had left the gun, its trajectory leading it towards Olvar, a 4th Octant drug kingpin. She sprinted to him, and fired again, this time at Nahr, the bodyguard of Lord Silberfarben. Her first bullet buried itself in Olvar’s chest as she moved again, positioning herself next to Catalan, an eccentric scholar. She shot him point blank in the neck, then turned and aimed through the crowd at Emeril, what of the best snipers in Elendel. They were just starting to pull their own pistol as Bleeder fired again, putting out their eye and their life. She grinned as all around her, people were starting to scream or pull out guns. All so slowly. Flogs and Winsting would be distracted and vulnerable in all this. She just had to— A hand brushed her elbow, and time lurched back to normal. Bleeder spun to see a raven haired woman stumbling towards her. She had been standing next to Catalan, and now Bleeder recognized her as Altea Meza, a Leecher. She fired, and Altea dropped. A powerful Soothing slammed into her, almost breaking through her cracked soul. She staggered and shook it off as everyone stilled around her. There were two people standing on a table, one with hands outstretched, and the other holding their bare ankle. A Soother and a Nicroburst. Lovely. Well now she would have to do this the hard way. The Game has officially begun! Please post here if you have not received your Role PM. Please remember the PM rules and keep track of whether or not you have PM’d in this cycle. I will not be confirming whether or not this game is role madness, and I will not be differentiating between Kills. Current Living, Awake players: 30 Current votes needed to Disperse the party: 18 Player List:

Non-Player Characters. Just random people that I can use in order to kill in the writeups.

You can. I am starting to send out Role PM's. If you get a PM before the Game Thread is posted, please do not post here. Just wait another 10 minutes.

I got plenty. I do need a Soother and a Nicroburst to be killed at the end of One AM though. So if anyone wants to volunteer two more NPC's, I'd love to have them.

1 hour and 30 minutes. We're almost there!

As I mentioned, the game is capped at 30. So if you signed up I would randomly select 3 of the 4 most recent signups to play. still want the spec link?

You bout gave me a heart attack. Fortunately, Arraenae is listed as the 21st player.

You sure can. Any other takers?

That'll be fun to watch. Welcome back OG Hoid. We've got 30 players for certain now, so I'm going to start balancing the game. Anyone have any fun ideas besides all Bartenders?

LG12 and MR10 both had 36 players, but AG4 had 37. Also, there is one slot left for one last player, and only 8 hours to go before the bullets start flying! Everyone get ready!

The Following changes are being made to the game due to how large it has gotten: The Smuggler role has been changed to: You can cancel a player’s vote. If your action would cause a global tie, it is roleblocked. You cannot target the same player twice in a row. (Lynch vote or Dispersal vote) The Impersonator role has been added: You can Move another player’s Lynch Vote. You cannot target players who have not voted. Your vote will be canceled as if escorted. Sleeping has been altered. Previously, if you were asleep due to not posting or being Escorted, there was no mechanical change to you. Now, if you are asleep due to not posting or getting targeted by an escort the previous cycle, you cannot cast a Dispersal Vote. Lord Winsting Can no longer use Faction Specific Roles. The Following Clarifications are being made: If the Bodyguard protects a Gambling Tycoon, the bodyguard action is used up before the extra life is. if the Renowned targets a player with two roles, they are told a random role. If they target that player again, they are told the other role. Elbereth has banned me from giving everyone both the Bartender role and the Gambling Tycoon role. Oh well. Kills will not be differentiated between. Additionally, I am capping this game at 30 participants. If more than 30 people sign up for this game, I will randomly choose 3 players who signed up after this post to play. The others will get to choose between pinch hitters and Spectators. There is a bit less than 44 hours left to sign up!

Nah, this is the party at the beginning of Shadows of Self. You can read it here. Canonically, no one except Bleeder survives this party. Honestly it does.

You sure can! To be clear, people don't generally get to choose their role in Sanderson Elimination. You're free to RP as a bodyguard, but your ability might not be that. I'll be honest people, when I made this game Role Madness, I was expecting to have around 16 players. We already have 24, and we're barely halfway through signups. I'm trying to decide if I need to add more Roles, or have the game *not* be Role Madness. What does everyone think? And does anyone have any suggestions for roles?

The site does that sometimes. If your i ternet hiccups while posting, the site fails to tell your i ternet that you posted susmcesfully, so it keeps trying to post until it gets another signal.

There's nothing better than this ever. Also, glad to have you back! Haven't seen you since AG5.
