"I know it's been a trying time for us all but the police are finally on their way. It's almost over, and once they take down all of our statements, and make the proper arrests, you'll all be able to return to your homes.
The antagonists are gone. Their plans to stand in the way of our mission of making the sitcom a staple of television once again are finished. We've succeeded."
After the police had come and gone, everyone gathered at the Minuteman Cafe, owned by Larry and the Darryls for a special celebratory concert by The Monkees!
As you dance and sing along, you can feel yourself being pulled away. Not by a person, but more a feeling of being roused from a deep sleep or something.
The cafe and the people in it begin to fade and soon, you find yourself back in your living room.
The television on. It's an episode of The Monkees.
You give a light chuckle. Was all of that a dream? It must have been...what a crazy, kooky, adventure that had been.
You look at your phone and you see that it's now 4:30 in the morning. The television advertises the show that's coming on next: Newhart.
"Oh, I don't think so."
You grab the remote and click the tv off. Then you head to bed.
Ted's meandering journey has taken him through many failed relationships. But the architect-turned-professor isn't giving up on his search for The One. She's out there, and each episode of Ted's life brings him one step closer to meeting her.

You are Steve Urkel, from Family Matters.
The Winslows' pesky, annoying next door neighbor, Steve is the epitome of a geek or nerd of the era, due to traits such as large, thick eyeglasses, flood pants held up by suspenders, multi-colored cardigan sweaters, and a high-pitched voice. He is central to many running gags, primarily property damage and/or personal injury as a result of his inventions going awry or his outright clumsiness. He becomes known by viewers and characters alike for several catchphrases uttered after some humorous misfortune occurs, including "Did I do that?"

Alignment: Town
Role: Inventor
Because of your superior intellect, you are able to construct a couple of items that you can give to other players at night (one item per night). They are one-time use items and are as follows:
Atomic bomb - Fooling around in your basement lab, you actually create an atomic bomb! It turns out to not be as powerful as expected, but can still take out the person nearest to it when it detonates. The player who receives this at night, may choose to blow someone up publicly in the day thread.
Robot decoy - if the person in possession of this invention is targeted for a night kill on the night it's received, the robot decoy will be killed instead and the target will have survived the attack!
Transformation Chamber - Step into your latest invention - The Transformation Chamber! Suppress those "nerd" genes and bring out your "cool" genes. Become your sauve alter ego Stefan Urquelle! Be careful though, because on the night you use this, you become so charming that you draw all actions being used that night to yourself.

If you are ever targeted by the Mafia's factional kill, you will not die. Instead, you will become a member of the Mafia and have access to their private forum. Your win condition will change to that of the Mafia's.
That was honestly so fun. Def top games for me. Thanks Christian! Loved the theme.
Shout out to that Nexus role. Basically catching all the mafia xD
I'll speak to the night actions in the night actions thread, but when Lamps used that Nexus role on Night 2, I hated it. LOL I thought maybe he'd use that one last, after most of the one-shot actions, etc. had been used or some people had been killed, maybe including the doctor. But it made Day 3 so confusing for everyone, it was honestly a lot of fun to watch.
I debated whether or not I was going to inform Cody he was a bystander, but I thought it could be viewed as a suspicious enough claim so I let him know.
Farlig. Did you save you/Primate the night you guys got poisoned?
If so. Being protected and both still being attacked basically is such a sad storyline lol
Yes, he protected them both. And ironically they were both poisoned that night. That was different from a regular attack.
So it was funny when he thought for a moment, he was the reason they were poisoned.
little Tina Miller was originally a member of the Mafia, but I had to make some adjustments due to the number of sign-ups.
Also, there were so many Vanillas because originally, I had planned to include a Vanilla Cop (Fish from Barney Miller). :P But Buffy and Wikey had JUST had one in their game, so I removed that role. lol And that's why the SK and the Godmother both that blurb about showing as Town Vanilla by any investigative actions.
The Town did not have a JOAT or a BP so that the Mafia's JOAT could potentially pass themselves off as Town and the SK and Godmother could maybe claim BP if they'd been seen surviving an attack.
The even-night hider and odd-night vig not having counterparts were for balance purposes.
I think overall the balance was okay. The Mafia did have a string of bad luck that heavily slanted it in Town's favour.
oh yeah. The prize for Emmy #5 was nothing spectacular. It was only lynch immunity for Day 2, which would have been announced at the start of the day. No votes for that person would have counted. It couldn't have been anything super powerful because I had no control over which alignment would end up with it. It was mostly for something else to do on Day 1.
