Let's try something new this time around.

My wife bought neopolitan ice cream sandwiches from the grocery store the other day. What a revelation they are.

I am town, and I am the least awesome flavor of the neopolitan ice cream sandwich.

Hi fellers.

Glory to the kingdom of Norway! While sailing in search of habitable land to set up a new colony for the crown of Norway, disaster struck. Waves as high as the fjords crashed over the flagship and snapped the ship in half. All told, the majority of the fleet was lost. The lives lost, even worse: zeebu, field, undercut, missa, fis, partyfalcon, biet, ixt, scuggs, kthx. Their names will live on in memory. Worst of all, our fearless leader, WillBy, as any good captain would do, went down with the ship.

But now is not the time to mourn, for adventure awaits on this island paradise. As you prepare to explore, build, and ravage across the island, a glare of light from behind the trees grabs your attention, and you realize there might be more to this island than meets the eye.

Begin Day 1

Hello and welcome to TW Mafia 2020: Shipwrecked

Mafia is a game of social deduction that has been played on the Trench Wars forums for many years. New or old, this game is accessible to all, provided an average skill at deduction and just the right amount of mistrust between friends. The game pits an informed minority (the mafia) against an uninformed majority (the town) for control over the game. We alternate between day and night phases. Each day phase, everyone gets together and chooses someone to be removed from the game (aka lynched). At night, the mafia secretly chooses someone to remove (nightkill). There are many other roles and mechanics involved, but that's all you need to know to get started.

The setting of the game will be further explained in the opening post.

Disclaimer(s):
The roles I have chosen might be tweaked slightly and/or X-Shot (limited usage ability).
I've also been known to create some of the roles myself...

Rules:
1) Actions occur in this order: Target modifiers (Busdriver, hider, commuter, nexus) -> Strongman -> Action modifiers (roleblock, protection) -> Killing roles -> Miscellaneous (treestump, recruitment) -> Investigative roles
Target Modifiers, however, can be roleblocked.
2) All votes must be BOLDED. Unvotes are not necessary but are allowed
3) You may not abstain from voting, except for the first day, as necessary.
4) There ARE double lynches. In the event of a vote tie, the FIRST TWO players to reach the final vote count will both be lynched.
5) Please keep conversation limited to game-related topics. It's really cool to see a game go into hundreds of pages, but it's a bit of a turn-off for new players and those who can only spare a few minutes for reading.
6) Phases will last however long I see fit. I expect votes every day and night-actions at night. Please don't keep everyone else waiting. Ideally, day phases will last under 48 hours, and night phases approximately 24 hours. It is your responsibility to make sure the game goes quickly though.
7) Never re-post any part of any pm sent to you by me. Paraphrasing is okay but I am the final judge of what is acceptable. I will mod-kill you instantly if you do so. Don't be a tool and we'll be cool.
8) You may not EDIT your posts. Multi-posting to correct what was said is fine.
9) Do NOT Lurk. I need you to post at least once per phase (more than a one-liner, please). If someone does not do even that much than I will look for a substitute. If someones is seen as lurking more than usual, it is your job as town/mafia to lynch them.
10) If you're dead, you're dead. Dead people don't talk nor share any information.
11) If you have any questions, please PM me (in-game or in Forum).
12) Submit your night actions if you have one. If you don't wish to use yours, please let me know that too so we can move on faster.
13) I reserve the right to modify the rules slightly for extraneous situations.
14) I reserve the right to edit/delete posts that don't comply with explicitly stated rules here or via private message.
15) Don't be shit-heads- to me or to each other.
16) No private messaging please, unless you are specifically allowed to.
