Mafia Murder Theater: Alice in Wonderland [( OOC )]

[desert ashes]

From 1872 to 1876, Alice Liddell (Lewis Carroll's inspiration for Alice) was romantically linked to Queen Victoria's youngest son, Prince Leopold.  While they did not marry, instead marrying Reginald Hargreaves in 1880, Alice did wear a brooch from the Prince on her wedding day.  She also named her first son Leopold and Prince Leopold named his daughter Alice.  Prince Leopold was also Godfather of Alice's first son. 

Welcome to the stage!

[desert ashes]

Okay, after a couple snafus with private messages, copy and paste, and my work computer, all roles have been assigned!  If you did not receive a private message from me with an assigned role, please let me know. 

Also, if any of our new Mafia players have questions, don't be afraid to ask!  We don't bite too hard. ;)

[Aiden]

First! (To post since Moirae took the first post!)

Wouldn't mean ... second? :P

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

Oh boy, I've been waiting for this game to start  :-)

I've not played any of the Mafia games before, but I've been reading through some on the forums and I think I know what to do; I've played a similar game to this one when I was in a Drama class in high school.

So here's to a fun game!

[nik200]

i finally got to post, lets see how i do, this is my first ever Mafia murder theater thing  :-)

[Revenent]

Damn, I half-expected this to not make it. Good work, Moirae. ;D

So, when does the act one voting begin?

[desert ashes]

Act One will officially begin later on today/tonight once I'm home.  Until then everyone is welcome to mingle on the stage.

[Poetic Fury]

Hi all!  I'm new to E and this will be my first Mafia Murder theme.  Excited to write with y'all!

[Remiel]

Welcome to the game, Ali.  I hope you enjoy it; Mafia games can be addictive.  I hope you last until the end! :)

And that goes for everyone who hasn't played a Mafia game on E before. ;)

[Kye]

*waves to all the new folks and settles in with a cup of coffee* Good luck everyone!

[Marguerite]

Very nice, let us get started!

[desert ashes]

We're a go!  Our fair Natalia has been slain and Director voting is up.  Sorry for the slight delay, everyone!

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

I assume the voting is going to be done by PM?

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

Oh, wait, I see now, nevermind.

[Revenent]

Wait, hasn't voting been going on for a week now? She we be moving on?

[desert ashes]

We are still waiting on votes from two people.

Ah, I thought when you said "voting should not take more than three days" that you were setting a limit or something. My mistake. ::)

I really like people to vote within three days.  Life, however, does happen. ;)  I'm a patient lady sometimes.

Edit:  Sinera hasn't been here since November 20th; Nik since the 30th.  If I have not heard from either of them in another day I'll be doing this vote for them (doing so at random via the dice roller) and will be replacing them.  If you know anyone who'd like to join in, please have them send me a message.

[desert ashes]

The lovely Josietta will be joining us, replacing sinera's spot.  Thank you, Josi, for coming on board!  You should have an assigned role sitting in your mailbox.

I am still looking for one more replacement to take nik200's place.  If anyone knows someone... who knows someone... who's got a friend... and a cousin's girlfriend... let me know. ;)

[Josietta]

*waves to all* I'm reading through the IC post now and am assuming a vote is being waited on from me?

[Marguerite]

Welcome, Josi.

[desert ashes]

*waves to all* I'm reading through the IC post now and am assuming a vote is being waited on from me?

Yes, but please, don't feel pressured.  ::Smiles. ::

And welcome aboard!  Don't trust the techies. 

[Zelric Miras]

Welcome Josi

[Revenent]

Herzlich willkommen, Frau Josi.

[Josietta]

I'll read through the intros and such before I cast my vote. Are we also waiting on any others just so i know my time frame here? I have a tabletop game today so I may not post again until this evening (6 or 7 PST). Thank you all for having me! I can't wait to get into this.

I did post my introductory sort of post though, just so my character is seen.

We're quasi waiting on another person (need to find a replacement) but for now the last vote is going to be done at random.  Really, posting later tonight or even tomorrow is fine.  Don't fret about it. =)

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

I'm back, mostly anyways. I've been ill and had a bad reaction to some antibiotics over the weekend, but got some new ones today and I'm doing just fine now. I generally tend to disappear on the weekends though, just because those are the days my hubby usually has off.

[Josietta]

Am I missing something? Are we still waiting on something or should we be voting now? Or mayyybe everyone is waiting for someone else to point fingers first!! :P

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

Fingers have been pointed Whoo! *raises her pointing fingers*

[Revenent]

Leorobin, Kyrsa, Imogen, Leorobin, Kyrsa, Imogen...

A pattern has developed. :P

[Zelric Miras]

Alas, I cannot vote for myself! Hmm choices....choices....

[desert ashes]

Please welcome Saku to the game!  Thank you for coming in. ^.^  Happy sleuthing! 

[Saku]

I voted!

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

Do we know what the vote count is, officially? I was trying to follow the thread and well its making my head spin trying to figure it out. Granted that may be more due to my brain being broken from all the finals this week e.e

I'm going to peek now after all the swapping. ;)

[desert ashes]

Understudies, Stage Manager, Producer and Props Manager, please PM me your decisions and what have you. ;)

[Zelric Miras]

*kicks his head around for fun*

[Josietta]

*ties a bell to the head so it makes pretty sounds as it bounces*

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

Oh, good grief.

[desert ashes]

::Lets Hector, her extremely skilled hunter kitty, out to chase after Leorobin's head.::

[Poetic Fury]

*sprinkles a little cat nip on the bouncing head to urge Hector on*

[Valerian]

My cats hate anything with a bell.  If a toy has a bell, the first order of business is to chew said bell off, if at all possible.

[Aludiana of the Dusk]

This is just morbid, amusing, but morbid. And I'm glad your cat never met my mother in law's corhuahua, Val. He would have been squished.

[Zelric Miras]

*the head bounces around, jingling at the moment, and rolls under a closet to hide from the cat and it's beheaded owner*

[Saku]

A little notice to the players: I will not be here tomorrow (but I might manage to sneak on at night later on) since I'm going down to my parents for Christmas. So I will be back again on the 26th. I don't think I need to do anything since I already placed my vote but letting you guys know anyway!

[Saku]

-runs around-

[desert ashes]

We are back up and running!

Special roles, please send me your choices. 

[Marguerite]

Damn you guys are screwed.

[Saku]

-pokes thread to keep alive-

[desert ashes]

I'm currently looking for a replacement for Aludiana.  She's been gone since the 24th of December and hasn't responded to any messages.  If anyone knows someone, send them my way. ;)  Thanks!

Edit: The wonderful Kip will be filling in!  Thank you, Kip!  ^.^


Round advancement will be coming up once I'm home.

[Aiden]

yay!

[Remiel]

Hey, welcome to the game, Kip.

[Kip]

Hi all :D

[Poetic Fury]

Welcome to the madness, Kip! :)

[Josietta]

Hiyas Kippers!  Love your avatar!

[Marguerite]

A nice contemplative avatar, Kip.

[Kip]

What is he contemplating is the unanswerable question :D

[desert ashes]

Okay, now we're really back up and running!

Hopefully with this "restart" the game may go a better pace. ;)

[desert ashes]

:: Ushers people toward the voting with muffins and danishes. ::

[Zelric Miras]

*a wnadering head steals half the muffins*

[Remiel]

There! I voted! *takes a danish*

Om nom nom nom...

[Revenent]

I feel sort of bad voting out somehow who literally just joined in...

[Remiel]

yeah, me too.  Talk about unfortunate...

[Marguerite]

Mmm, thank you for the muffins.

[desert ashes]

Ya'll are so mean to Kip. >.>

[Valerian]

<.<

*hands Kip a muffin*

[Aiden]

Motherfuckers! I hope you all die!  XD (The understudies)

[desert ashes]

Please welcome the lovely Eden into the game who is replacing rottenaim.

[Nadir]

O8)

[Remiel]

Welcome, Eden!

I think Eden would make a lovely Alice.

[Nadir]

I only take roles where my 'fro will fit. Think Alice can rock it?

[Remiel]

Absolutely!  Alice and Wonderland needed a modernist revision anyway.

*Remiel imagines the Mad Hatter as the Notorious B.I.G. in a pimp hat: "Yo, we all mad here, dawg."*

[Nadir]

*pokes*

o.O

Did my dashing entrance cause all of you darlings to drop like those fainting goats?

[Marguerite]

*pokes*

o.O

-Snogs-

[Nadir]

Oh, not fair you died. >:(

*snogs*

[Marguerite]

Oh, not fair you died. >:(

*snogs*

I know I would have cavorted with you, Eden.

[desert ashes]

::Ushers the last voters to the stage!::

[desert ashes]

Sorry for the delay, folks!  For some reason I could have sworn I was waiting for more one more besides Kip.   :-[

Special roles, please send me your targets for the night.

[Nadir]

*nudges the game*

Did I kill another one?

[Marguerite]

*nudges the game*

Did I kill another one?

Get rid of the body.

[desert ashes]

:: Laughs. ::  No!

I've been waiting to hear back from one special role. ;)  Update will be coming later, though. 

[Nadir]

Snazzy!

[Saku]

Oh lovely glad to see this one hasn't died yet. ^^

[desert ashes]

Hey guys, sorry for the delay!  The update will be coming in tonight. 

[desert ashes]

Thanks everyone for being so patient with this game!  Between the several replacements and delays, it hadn't gone as expected, but I hope everyone had a good time. :)

[Nadir]

Oh yes, I enjoyed it. ^_^ Thanks Moirae!

[Remiel]

Well done, Valerian.  Heh.

[Revenent]

Wow, we kicked all sorts of ass. Thanks for the fun game, Moirae. I'll be keeping an eye out for if you do another in the future. ;D

[Valerian]

Well done, Valerian.  Heh.

Woo!  Thanks.   ;D

*hugs her co-conspirator!*
