Smalltown Mafia:
A.K.A. U-pick (for others)
A.K.A. U-pick (for others)
Because we need more paranoia in the world

A helpful picture of the entirety of this community:
(You're the geese)
Among the vicissitudes incident to life, no event could have filled me with greater anxieties than that of which the notification was transmitted by your order, and received on the fourteenth day of the present month. On the one hand, I was summoned by my Town, whose voice I can never hear but with veneration and love, from a retreat which I had chosen with the fondest predilection, and, in my flattering hopes, with an immutable decision, as the asylum of my declining years: a retreat which was rendered every day more necessary as well as more dear to me, by the addition of habit to inclination, and of frequent interruptions in my health to the gradual waste committed on it by time. On the other hand, the magnitude and difficulty of the trust to which the voice of my Town called me, being sufficient to awaken in the wisest and most experienced of her citizens, a distrustful scrutiny into his qualifications, could not but overwhelm with dispondence, one, who, inheriting inferior endowments from nature and unpractised in the duties of civil administration, ought to be peculiarly conscious of his own deficiencies. In this conflict of emotions, all I dare aver, is, that it has been my faithful study to collect my duty from a just appreciation of every circumstance, by which it might be affected. All I dare hope, is, that, if in executing this task I have been too much swayed by a grateful remembrance of former instances, or by an affectionate sensibility to this transcendent proof, of the confidence of my fellow-citizens; and have thence too little consulted my incapacity as well as disinclination for the weighty and untried cares before me; my error will be palliated by the motives which misled me, and its consequences be judged by my Town, with some share of the partiality in which they originated.
[...]
Having thus imported to you my sentiments, as they have been awakened by the occasion which brings us together, I shall take my present leave; but not without resorting once more to the benign parent of the human race, in humble supplication that since he has been pleased to favour the people of this humble Town, with opportunities for deliberating in perfect tranquility, and dispositions for deciding with unparalleled unanimity on a form of this Mafia Theme, for the security of their Union, and the advancement of their happiness; so his divine blessing may be equally conspicuous in the enlarged views, the temperate consultations, and the wise measures on which the success of this Mafia Theme must depend.
Wherefore, having been bestowed such noble a position, it is in my scared duties to AHH I've been shotted
...Git sum Mafia my beloved citizens...

Rules:
1) It’s U-pick! Far easier to do in a forum environment. Never again will I host this on the server. There are ten townies, three mafia, and one third party. It's majority lynching, with 72 hour days (unless majority is reached prematurely) and 48 hour nights. If you do not submit your night action by then, I ignore your pleas. In this variant of U-pick, you do not choose items, per se, but rather one adjective and one profession. These two factors determine your official role. You do not determine the effects of your chosen professions and adjectives, the host does.
2) In addition to picking a profession and adjective for yourself, you also get to pick them for the person directly below you on the player list.
3) After giving you your factional alignments, PM me the things you choose for yourself and the guy below you. I will then PM you back to tell you the abilities of your adjective and profession, as well as the ones given to you. You can only have one adjective and one profession, so choose one of each and throw the other out.
4) During this time period, the mafia may talk to one another, allowing them to choose the abilities with the best synergy.
5) The third party gets to retain both of their professions and adjectives. They will get to choose one additional item, which will be announced as being thrown out. They do not get to choose between three items; rather, they are guaranteed the real item they chose for themselves and the item they were given. The one they discard exists solely for the reason of concealing the fact that they are the third party.
6) The host will announce what profession and adjective everyone threw out.
7) Never edit posts, ever.
8) Accept all I say as the unquestionable law of the land. I am the legislator of the future, the executive director of the present, and the judge of the past.
9) Note: when the third party dies, weird stuff starts happening. You'll see.
10) By playing this game, you legally agree that I can say whatever I want to say in the middle of the game. The ghost of the mayor'll do some crazy stuff. He won't be trollish, but he may change the game a bit. He'll say exactly what happens, so it won't be confusing. It won't be terribly often, either. So don't worry.
