20 people in, so 11 needed for a lynch decision.

Day One ends on Tuesday at 8pm.

Oh no! Not our richly characterised and fleshed out mayor!

Who will furnish us with deeds of his derring do now he has gone? or write his politically charged yet warmly received memoir "I was right all along"? But hark! A traveller approaches! maybe they know some more..?

Has anyone seen a dentist? I really need to see a dentist!

Malc

Clearly not. BTEC from the Bard' College (formerly polytechnic) no doubt. Useless story telling. more concerned with himself than weaving the rich tapestry of the much mourned mayor.

Another traveller approaches! Maybe THEY will know something!

I'm not interested in another traveller right now, I just need to see a dentist, I have a very painfull absess and I need something sorting straight away.

Malc

I'm glad to see the back of the mayor to be honest, his policy of raising taxes on dentists has made it hard to find one for miles around. There must be one around somewhere though

Malc

Good lord! Is that an admission of motive?

Are you a dentist?

Malc

I can have a look at that tooth of yours if you like, Malc.
I'm not a dentist, I'm just a nosey bastard.

Aww, I really liked the Mayor.

Buggeration, anyone want to own up to this dastardly deed now? Would save the police a lot of bumbling around work

And no before you ask I AM NOT A DENTIST

(switches off record player and turns around)

Heh, I never did much care for the So Solid Crew.

Hi. I'm Bill. How are you doing? Pretty bad I imagine after a tragedy like this, it's a difficult thing for us all to go through and I imagine there will be difficult times ahead, grieving is never an easy process for anyone, regardless of how well you knew our beloved mayor personally.

So, who are you anyway? Do you have a story to tell?

Me? Well, I guess you could call me a writer as such, not that I've been published yet, I just need the right story to come along. As macabre as it may seem, this town seems like the time and place for inspiration to strike. So tell me people, let us know who you are, maybe the muse will hit me?
Do you have a tale of love and sacrifice? Or a good comedy? Or even a story with a bear in it? People love those I think.
Maybe I should just write what I know... Maybe... Not now. Not yet. But I'm not sure, people might like it... Maybe...

Talk to me, give me inspiration, I want to know your stories.

Oh no a dead mayor.

So only 4 of us are good?

I'll tell you hisstory. His story is about the radical transformation about the y-axis I suffered. It is a fairly short story, taking about sixty seconds, and tells how he came to be the Mayor of Settlementtown. He spent his post birth formative years living on the western side of a town called Philadelphia. He enjoyed very much being with his friends and lazing about. Occasionally, he would go to his place of education and indulge in some sport. Sadly,, some hoodlums started to do the same thing, and there was an altercation of some sorts. Maternal instinct meant his mother had no choice but to send him to Settlement town in a particularly malodorous taxi that one could smell from a while away. Even the pendant hanging from the rear view device could not help. It was in the evening when he arrived, bidding goodbye to the carriage driver and making a snide remark about the cleanliness of the conveyance. It was then he got his first glance of his kingdom he had finally arrived in, to sit behind the desk and administrate.

A prince of story sir, very fresh.
I shall write this in my notes, maybe this will be the story that gets me published.

Is this the Little Shop of Horrors Mafia Scum?

Well to be honest you all look suspicious...I'm locking myself in a room and sleeping with one eye open.

I can only assume this means there are a minimum of 4 VT?

Also, I can't believe our Beloved mayor has bitten the dust, fortunately his best friend Goddess Jazzy J is around, maybe she knows something?

Let's shake her and find out!

[vote:Goddess Jasmine]

Don't know nothing.

Yes in the rules thread

I think I quoted the wrong box about dentists earlier. Doesn't matter. You got the reference, right? Right? RIGHT?

What?

4 vanilla townies does not equal only 4 good people. What a strange thing to think, tell us more KovacsC.

So you do know something, then.

Only that my English is poor.

Y'know, the evil dentist? From The Little Shop of Horrors? I'm thinking of the right film, aren't I? I'm sure there was a song. About the dentist. Right? I mean, there were plenty of songs, but the dentist had some heavy rock, er, song about being an evil dentist. Am I thinking about something else? Did Grease have a song about a dentist?

Anyway, Malc is evil. 'Cause, y'know, the dentist thing.

That does seem to be clutching at straws a little !

Are we going to actually get enough people to vote today to get someone out ?

Day ends at 8:00 tonight but that can be an awkward time to get people available I think we need to look at things 'ending' around 17:00 or so tonight so we're tight on time.

So you do admit to being a 'Forrin' AND 'not from round these parts'?

#narrows eyes

Paranoid much? I'm not foreign and I've lived here all of my life. Sorry.

I'm fossing Kovacs for his 4 good people comment.

Hello town! Sorry for not piping up yet, I've been working all day. Not sure what pops out to me at the moment as sketchy. Since we have no idea what's going on I'll [vote:bobbyaro] for shits and giggles.

Kovacs does have a interesting way of reading the rules, that's the only FoS I have to go on at the moment [vote:KovacsC] for now. Would be nice to have some voting for people to look back on in days to come

*Yaaaawn. Streeeeetch*

Uh...what the fuck is going on?

Okay 11 votes is going to be really hard so [vote:KovacsC] - for not reading the rules and the 4 good people , I assume his role does not say that he is good :-)

Goodness me, this is some terrible business. Our poor Mayor!

We seem to have some strangers in our midst; travellers or foreigners or some sort. Those who cannot read or write like the rest of us townsfolk, at least.

However, I'm not sure that's too much of a reason to start getting suspicious of them. Yet...

With no real information to go on, I think I'll wait a little longer and see what other clues might appear

Let's get some conversation going should we.

Do we vote KovacsC, or is this the one time that we shouldn't vote. We really do know nothing at the moment, other than who each of us is and that there are 4 vanilla townies in total.
I would really love to hear more people's stories before I decide whether to vote or not. I suspect I will be voting KovacsC unless someone can convince me otherwise?

lulz

Also: Hello! Shame about the mayor. Has anyone, you know, called the police?

I thought that would draw you out

So, what's your story, who are you?

I don't know more than what is in the rule thread.

That's not true, you know who you are. Why do you think only the vanilla townies are good?

Quote from the rule thread



So all we know for sure that there are a definitive 4 good guys. Might be more, who knows.

Well, I think that makes it pretty certain you aren't a good power role. So you are either a vanilla townie or a bad power role.

Spot on, I am good old townie.

Isn't that a coincidence!

Amusingly, I actually think I believe you

VOTE GODDESS JASMINE FOR SAFETY AND HAPPINESS OF SETTLEMENTTOWN.

I am glad of that...
