Roles were distributed via random number generator. It must have chosen Leon three times for power roles, lol. Some of the role PMs were written by Roy, others were written by me:

1. Aristocrat (Nurse)

You are somewhat of an assembly enthusiast. When the long work day is over, you eagerly return home only to fasten more things together. You suspect it to be a psychological fascination incurred by the loss of your parents when you were a child: your desire to couple things is a metaphor alluding to reuniting your family. It's given you a unique perspective on the human condition, and while you sometimes fight your habit, you also use it as a reminder to motivate you to help others. You mend others' loneliness like a Nurse mends a wound, because nobody deserves to be alone.

2. Riney (Townspeople)

Being an assembly line chump isn't as bad as it might sound. Your wife might get into a screaming match with you nightly about the bills, and the manager on duty always seems to have something against you, but you have grown used to the screaming and have found a new means of coping in the new strip club on main street. Your wife may leave you to stay with her sister, and your pay might again be docked as you come in later and later, but hey this is the life of a townsperson. Surely they don't expect you to care too much about your job.

3. rayNimagi (Townspeople)

Loading and unloading. Unloading and loading. No, it's not exciting. No, it isn't fun. It is what it is, which is neither fun nor exciting. It is a paycheck, a source of income. That's how you treat your job, and that's how it treats you. A simple system between a job and a Townsperson. Your coworkers have equally dull occupations, though they don't treat it as it is. It makes no difference though: the treatment they receive in return is the same. They complicate a system for no gain.

4. Symmetry (Townspeople)

The sound of Styrofoam squeaking makes you shift uncomfortably; what an unnatural sound it is. And yet you work with Styrofoam every day for packaging product hot off the assembly line. Nobody else seems to mind the sound, so why does it bother you so? You're a proponent for bubble-wrap: the average Townsperson would prefer the fun and less-messy alternative to packing peanuts. Who invented packing peanuts? You don't even like regular peanuts, and these light abominations aren't exactly favorable, even if they're only related by name.

5. lil-inferno (Townspeople)

The workplace has a strict policy on drugs and alcohol, but the assembly line guys never get tested. I mean, I suppose if you were holding onto the ground trying not to fall into the sky, someone would pull you aside eventually, but nothing's stopped you from bringing your trusty flask into work each day. You can't be the only Townsperson maintaining a buzz here, but maybe that's the booze talking.

6. Observer12425 (Mafia)

You look out from your pent house loft and down at the people below scurry back and forth through the dreary snow as they attempt to finding meaning in their pathetic lives. You make yourself a scotch, neat and contemplate your next move. The mafia in this town is a single cell organism, you can't breathe in without the other three exhaling. The power over the town and over the other members of your group is exhilerating.

7. Generalpie (Townspeople)

By night you front an underground deathstep band where you and your band mates fight the man and the corrupt system with reckless ambition. Your gigs are long, the pay is poor, and your spending habits are worse...that is when and if you get paid. Its all you can do to join the other lemmings that see you just as another townsperson at the assembly factory in the center of town.

8. Lanthanide (Townspeople)

The industrious town had once been home to the top couples vacations spot as listed by triple A. All that changed when Roy Heavy Industry bought up the land (and used eminent domain to usurp your grandparents' bed and breakfast, as they bitterly remind you every holiday), and since you've graduated you have pledged to make it your duty to bring down the man from within, pitching aggressive environmental reform strategies. Although most have fallen on deaf ears you are the first townsperson to convince the plant to start a recycling bin in the lunch room.

9. OlimarandLouie (Townspeople)

Life moves in such a rush. Why is it on such a tight schedule? You're one for pacing, for going slow. That's why you hate your job: going slow is getting fired. You envy the assembly line, whose only job seems to be staring at a moving counter. No Townsperson in your position could be bothered to see what it is they actually do, however, as you're constantly moving product from one end of the building to the other. The disorganized layout of the factory is almost comical, but it at least mimics a moment of tranquility as you drift across the chaos.

10. Daddywhoo (Mafia)

A social club. That's what they told you it was: a club focused on entrepeneural venutres and community growth. But that isn't what this is you know better - you're in the mafia. You clutching your drink with shakey and sweaty palms, face white, while you wait for your contact in a dimly lit dive, a shark that owes you and your associates money - a lot of money. He blubbers his excuses, showing you photos of his wife, kids, and pet goldfish. You give the signal and three other men grab him roughly and drag him out behind the bar. You hear a gunshot and the three men return to their drinks.

11. Doodan (Townspeople)

The world is getting quieter around you with age: the high-pitched squeal of moving machinery has calmed to a faint whistle; the low hums of generators have become inaudible vibrations; the constant chatter of another Townsperson has melted to occasional whispers. And they have the audacity to blame you for their progression to silence.

12. omginbd (Townspeople)

You are a self possessed climber, graduating from a decent university with an operations management (emphasis in assembly line) and destined, you are sure for a glamorous job as the youngest Townsperson to become a corporate executive of Roy Heavy Industries. But unlike the yuppies you graduated with you have no intention of applying for a cushy internship beneath the esteemed cEOs, no, you have entered in at the bottom as an assembly line worker. And you can tell by your manager's smiles that you are on your way to the top.

13. DevliN (Mafia)

While many find a way to join your band of brothers, this is your birthright. Your father and his father before him laid down the ground work for the mafia resurgence in this town. For now it was just the little con jobs - a fence here, illegal gambling operation there - but that was all about to change. You and your three most trusted associates were going to turn this little town inside out; starting with the factory.

14. Leon-037 (Mafia)

The double life never seemed quite as poingant as it was now. You're the inside man - the one who switches the security guard's badge and unlocks the back doors for associates on the nights of the crime. You have a key to every room in the town, making you if not the most influential than at the very least the most critical roll in the mafia.

15. Sacrieur (Detective)

A suitable job for a wannabe Detective: inspecting items for defects. While this is what you're paid to do, you're much more interested in more subtle observations, like determining if someone had forgotten their lunch based on their posture. It's hard to explain what exactly you notice about others that tells you things they haven't shared, but you've been fairly able with your ability. When you ask for the time, you couldn't care less about the numbers emerging from someone's mouth; it's far more interesting to know a man is still concerned about the lazy parking job he did that morning as his eyes search for a clock.

Mafia also received this PM:
Roy is the co-host, but the other four of you on this email (Observer, Daddywhoo, Devlin, and Leon) are all mafia. Each of you received your own Role PM so please check your inbox for the other PM from me. I am sending you this to remind you that the mafia must make a coordinated hit - a single hit. It'd be best if you chose a spokesperson for simplicity sake but I'll leave that up to you.

All three of the mafia role PMs were written by me. As Roy made some of the townspeople role PMs I wanted to share with you a role PM he made that is not currently in use by a townsmember:

You wonder what it would take to get fired here. Obviously not doing your job would do the trick: they care about getting product out the door. While you don't particularly enjoy your job, you don't have many other options available to you; a Townsperson without a degree here ends up working at the factory, plain and simple. Nobody here has been daring enough to see how much they could get away with, because when you're out of a job here, you're out of here.

Night 1
Aristocrat-- Save: Aristocrat
Sacrieur-- Investigate: lil_Inferno
Mafia-- Hit: Aristocrat
Good call and lucky on Aristocrat's part!


Night 2
Aristocrat-- No action
Sacrieur-- Investigate: DevliN
Mafia-- Hit: Lanthanide

Night 3
Aristocrat-- Save: Aristocrat
Sacrieur-- Investigate: Riney
Mafia-- Hit: Sacrieur
I am surprised that Sac did not investigate Aristocrat, given that he was painting a huge target on his back. It was also unfortunate that even though lil was the hub he didn't command the control he needed, nor did he try to disuade Sac from being an obvious target for mafia. Sacrieur's attempt to investigate Riney did not work as he died.

Night 4
Aristocrat-- Save: lil-Inferno
Mafia-- Hit: Aristocrat
And unfortunately saving lil in the case backfired and took the life of Aristocrat. It was completely unnecessary for the town to doctor up screenshots from Aristo claiming he was scummy and significantly hurt their cause. However, I also think it was silly that mafia chose to hit Aristocrat who would've appeared to be an average townie when he would've made a good scapegoat for a lynch target...maybe if the mafia had been more active they could've pulled off usurping the power or convincing lil to go after Aristo.

Night 5
Mafia-- Hit: rayNimagi
If the mafia had hit lil at this point they probably would've destabilized the town beyond redemption, as the townies by now were inactive players.

Night 6
Mafia-- Hit: lil-Inferno
By this point I was hoping they wouldn't hit inferno, only because I had a really really awesome end post idea if he ad been the townie standing.
