- July 16th, 1945
Whilst my physicians by their love are grown
Cosmographers, and I their map, who lie
Flat on this bed, that by them may be shown
That this is my south-west discovery,
Per fretum febris, by these straits to die,
I joy, that in these straits I see my west;
For, though their currents yield return to none,
What shall my west hurt me? As west and east
In all flat maps (and I am one) are one,
So death doth touch the resurrection.
- John Donne
"Welcome everyone to the Trinity Test site for the first atomic bomb!
Some of you have been stationed here for awhile, some of you joined us more recently as we now prepare to project ourselves into the Atomic Age.
The President would like me to inform all of you that your participation here has been greatly appreciated, and the discretion that all of you have shown has been commendable.
However, before we go down to the test site, I am unfortunate to inform you that there are those that have been tasked at finding the leak of information that we have picked up. Keep doing your job and we will be able to push forward and win this war.
Now, please let's make our way to the viewing test site and grab your protective gear."
"About how far are we from the test site?" a voice questions above the eager chatter.
"About 20 miles away from the tower," answered sharply.
"Will we see it?" inquires to anyone around.
"That seems too far," wonders another.
"We are safe, right?" a small quiver of fear underlines the question.
"If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one."
Never has there been a silence so loud. Some think of wars end. Some think of all wars end. Some think of seeing their families, friends, about their job being finished, about home. Others think, with power so great, are homes safe?
*********************************************************
Rules (stolen from Sylandra!)
1. Votes MUST be in bold to count. (ex. Vote Sylandra)
2. Once a majority has been reached, the day ends. Anything that happens after a final vote will not happen, including unvotes to bring the target below the minimum threshold.
3. You are not allowed to post in the thread during the night phases
4. You are not allowed to communicate with each other outside the thread unless your role specifically allows you to do this.
5. Once you are eliminated, you are not allowed to post in the thread during the day phase unless your role explicitly allows this.
6. You are not allowed to quote your role PM.
7. Do not discuss game details outside of the game.
8. If you go inactive, please let me know so I can find a replacement player. (Those interested in being a replacement player, please message me for a waitlist!)
9. You're not allowed to edit your posts. Doublepost instead if you want to clarify something.
10. You must be sportsmanlike. If you are rude or inflammatory to the point that the game ceases to be enjoyable for the rest of the players, I reserve the right to modvig you out of the game. Mafia may be a game about emotional manipulation and deceit, but it's still a game! Have fun with it. But most importantly, be respectful.
11. Dayphases will last no longer than a RL week. If seven days go by without a lynch, the Nightphase will immediately begin.
