Pickles.

I think it should be based on the 11-year solar cycle.

Alright so here's the problem:

I am quite a bit more sick than I thought I was and that's the cause for the hold up. So we can do one of two things:

Roy can start the game without me

You can wait until I start to get better.

I don't know how long until I start feeling better - it could be tomorrow (doubt it) or it could be several days if not more. To risk sounding like a hypochondriac I think my cold has developed into bronchitis (which is pretty common when I personally get sick) so keep that in mind.

The choice is up to you. Roy is aware of this arrangement and will follow whatever the players decide.

As for activity checks: it looks like the only person who hasn't responded is Lotus.

Hopefully not too late for me to sign up?

It is, but since Lotus failed the activity check, you can take his place as player #8.

We've really broken down the scenario into three options:


Let us know via this thread or by PM (if you prefer to remain anonymous) which you would prefer. Please only vote for an option if you are signed up to play (but of course, if you're someone that wishes to host that falls into the category described in Option 3, please PM us so we know you exist).

We'll go with the qualifying option that receives the most votes in the next 24 hours.

Start the game now.

I'd prefer option 1, assuming Kame will be able to write posts later in the game.

I'd prefer #2, this /is/ KAME Mafia after all

I vote #2

I vote #2.

I vote with the majority unless my vote would cause it to have an odd number of votes. If there is a tie I vote for the lowest numbered option on an even day of the month and the highest numbered option on an odd day of the month.

In the event that the majority vote would total an odd number because of my vote, then I instead vote for the the option that has received the least amount of votes.

If votes are tallied on a day that begins with T, then I abstain.

You know Sac, you're kind of a dick.

I vote for option one.

I vote option one because I'm not a poo poo head.

I vote to wait for kame. :3

Alright I'm well enough to host. You can look forward to the opening post today. Lanth I'll have you replace Lotus (unless someone has heard from him)

DAY 0


Welcome to Roy Heavy Industries. Only employees are allowed inside this facility.

There's only one place to work: the factory. There are no car dealerships, no commercial outlets, no grocery stores, no schools. All supplies, including food, come by train. The factory distributes the food to the workers. If the pay wasn't meager enough to make it impossible to leave, the unforgiving climate surrounding us would be. We're isolated. Alone.

Welcome to Roy Heavy Industries. Cellular devices are not permitted on company property.

It was only a matter of time before some of us got organized. We went on strike, following the leadership of Azrael. Azrael was an idealist, always pursuing to correct injustices around him. Most of all, he sought equality: somewhere, some executive was profiting off of our slave labor. While a lot of employees dared not to strike with us, we still had quite the following, and our strike slowed production enough to catch someone's attention.

Welcome to Roy Heavy Industries. Remember: a quiet worker is a happy worker.

I guess these "Sever Enrooted Transgressions" light-weight shock collars need to be in steady production. Rumor has it these Sever E.T. devices are bought in mass supply by owners of prison systems, though I can't imagine why there'd be a constant demand for them. Anyway, during our little stunt, the intercom came on, and instead of the prerecorded messages that usually play throughout the day, we heard an unfamiliar voice. He was giving instructions: new guidelines for running the facility.

"I've heard reports regarding the rebellious and dangerous nature of some employees here. At Roy Heavy Industries, we strive to create the safest environment as possible for our loyal workers. Unfortunately, we cannot monitor our employees to determine who among you need to be let go. Therefore, I'm delegating the power to fire an employee to a daily democratic vote between all members of our facility."

Getting fired. That's the same as murder in these parts: you're cut off from the food supply, exiled from the area, and left with nowhere to go. Letting the man hang is more ethical than throwing him out of town to slowly succumb to starvation, and that's exactly the conclusion he wanted us to make. The first one to speak out against it was our leader, Azrael. He was also the first to disappear, presumed dead. The next day was tense; the air was so thick with suspicion you could cut it with a knife. Employees had always had a suspicion that the company was in league with some shady characters - the disappearance of Azrael should have only confirmed their suspicions.

Welcome to Roy Heavy Industries. We strive for a harassment free work place.

It should have been clear what we should have done - we shouldn't let the executives win or allow them to play their silly power game with our lives. We should have banded together and weeded out the mafia influence systematically turning through the clues and layers of deceit. But we turned on each other. We threatened each other. A dropped apple in the cafeteria was a declaration of war.

Welcome to Roy Heavy Industries. Safety is our number one priority.

Something has happened to these people. The very people I grew up with, the people I work next to on a daily basis; these people killed everyone they could remember at the protest. Each day I watched as my only true friends were named to be "fired." There's only one hope for us: we have to kill them before they can kill us. Fortunately they're struggling to remember those of us strikers that remain, but we remember. We know each other by heart.

Welcome to Roy Heavy Industries. Welcome to Hell.



NIGHT ONE WILL END JANUARY 30TH AT 10:00 PM MST. NIGHT ACTIONS MUST BE SUBMITTED TO KAME BY THEN.

Can I have a raise?

I demand a universal wage cut to increase the management profits.
