The MTGSalvation forums have gone haywire. Users have been blocked access from the servers, and the admins and moderators have discovered that the fan favourite "The Rumour Mill" has been murdered.
Twelve of you offered up your time and expertise to take control of the mainframe of each forum or sub-forum, in an attempt to solve the mystery of who murdered 'The Rumour Mill'. Make no mistake, 'The Rumour Mill' had many enemies, and they will do anything to see those who would prevent their time in the limelight from seeing the light of day.
Those of you who enter the corrupted forums may themselves become corrupted, in which case the others will have no choice but to cleanse both yourselves and the forums.
In a moment, I will be messaging each of you your Role PM, which will contain the forum you will be representing in this thread, some minor information, and your role.
Good luck. Please, bring justice to those forums who destroyed 'The Rumour Mill', and allow our beloved MTGSalvation forums to operate as per usual once more.

GOLDEN RULES:
(i.e., the things that apply to every game of Mafia.)
(This list is stolen from Kraj.)
Do not discuss this game outside the thread with anyone. Not your friends, not your mother, not another forum member who isn’t playing, not a dead player, not a living player while you’re dead. No one. The only exceptions are me and whatever is instructed in your role PM. This applies to any game in progress; don’t talk about other running games in this one, even if you aren’t playing in that one.
Do not quote any PMs from me, nor paraphrase too closely. Breaking this role results in your death (and punishment).
Do not edit or delete your posts. Breaking this role results in your death (and punishment).
Obey the Forum Rules. This especially includes flaming. Play nice, kids. The only exception being you may double post if necessary, but please make an effort to respond to things in one post. Use the multi-quote button or copy/paste.
Do not lurk, lest I smite you. You must maintain a reasonable level of active participation in the game. We understand that life gets in the way of mafia. However, please respect the other players and I by keeping us informed. If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 72-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread or PM the mod. If you feel unable to continue to play the game at the commitment level expected, request to be replaced. Do not simply vanish, unless under life-threatening peril. And I’ll just put this warning out there now: if ever I suspect lurking/replacing is being used as a survival tactic, you will be modkilled.
Make your votes in bold. If you do not bold your vote, it may not be counted. Please be attentive and unvote (in bold), if necessary, before casting a new vote. If you do not unvote first, your new vote may not be counted.
Ask the moderator, me, if you are unsure about anything. If you post a request of the moderator in the thread, please bold it.
Have fun! Otherwise, why play?
Other Rules You Should Know:
Lynching will require a simple majority of votes. Once a lynch threshold has been reached nothing can undo it. You may continue to post until night.
You may Vote: No Lynch
If a deadline is reached with no majority, the day will end without a lynch. Deadlines will be set at moderator discretion.
Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. Stop typing. A simple “Bah” post containing no relevant information is acceptable.
If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. If I don’t receive your choice, nothing will happen. If you wish to not use a night action, please tell me so; don’t just let the deadline expire. I like nights to be as short as possible.
ROLES
This is a very basic game of mafia. Do not assume that certain roles will not be in the game. That said, there are difficult roles which will never be in any Basic game that I host. You can be sure that there are no Godfathers, and no Jesters in this game.
Check out here for more information regarding roles.
Me: "Galadrial"? That cat's name should totally be Quumulox the Devastator.
Friend: Send in a request.
Me: These people don't understand. Cute things need violent and big-sounding names. Like, "Hey, have you seen my cat, Rakshor of the Blood-Pit Tribe?" Turns out the cat's, like, a five-week old kitten that makes everyone that sees it give the cliche "Aaaaaaaawww!" and a huge smile.
Friend: I think that would be a little too epic for regular folks.
Me: **** those *******. I want a kitten named Rakshor of the Blood-Pit Tribe. ****, I want a Blood-Pit Tribe of cats. They'd need other tribes to make cat-war with. Like, a next-door neighbor that's a crazy cat lady. She can have the Complete-******* Tribe.
Media is not making me steal. But in a way is like the story of the very hot girl with the short skirt teasing the old sick guy with a history of rape.

Hm... I made some weirdness in my attempt to count, it seems. Still, with the official count, we still don't have anything yet that's close enough to the required majority.
Well, unless a self-vote is suspicious, I can't really pick up anything too out of the ordinary yet.

By the way it's totally normal to have no suspects at this stage in the game.
