If the Alpha voids a vote - does the player being voided know his vote doesn't count? - Let's say I void (rolls dice) Uncle Festy, and he votes for me but the Alpha voided him. Does UF know ahead of time, or find out later he's been voided in a day vote?

The person voided can't post at all for that next day phase. The voided player will be told that they've been targeted by the power and that for the next day phase they are essentially out of the game. However, this can't be used to force an autolynch.

Well, the letter of the ability doesn't say so, but the spirit kinda does. The basic idea is that the affected player is too stricken with fear to do anything other than cower.

With that, recruitment is closed. Role PM's should be out by the end of Sunday.

Hrmmm... may I request that we at least be allowed to -inform- potential allies that we can't post? I can easily see people spamming the hell out of someone thus muted because they haven't posted yet

((This wouldn't break the spirit I don't believe... if someone is -that- freaked out then others would easily be able to notice!))

What I've seen from Mafia and SEU abductions, people usually get it after a while if you just avoid the question.

Which is pretty much what the idea is based off of. The player is essentially dead for that day phase. There's nothing keeping them from posting elsewhere or PMing others, they just would have to follow the rules of being dead: no affecting the game, either through PM or post. There's just the caveat that they can't post in thread until the day phase is over.

No answering game PMs, no discussing the game in MSN chat, no posting on the thread... if you're not dead it's only 48 hours... or does it go through the night phase as well?

The alpha voids player A. If that player has a night ability (say, a scry), then that ability is voided. For the next day phase that player is essentially out of the game: no vote, no affecting the game. The power wears off in the next night phase.

Hell with it, it's been 29 hours and the re-written opener is better than what I had anyway.

--
Fears 3: Full Circle

There it is, Pegasus Manor

Beneath the helicopter Haven blazed by as they bore down on their target, the old Pegasus Manor, the heart of the problem.

Of course, calling it a problem was like calling the Sun "kinda hot."

Almost looks normal, doesn't it?

Almost...

Pegasus Manor only stood out by virtue of being in the middle of some parkland, though by now the trees were withered and snow covered the ground. Everything that had happened in the past few months had its source right there.

It was only a matter of time before the SEU was called in, really they had just been waiting for an opportunity to get inside. The bubble that had covered much of the city not only kept everyone inside, but it also kept outsiders from getting in.

5 minutes to drop. We all know what to do...

--

How long will you continue fighting?

Gabrielle quashed the voice in her mind as well as she could. It was getting worse now. Sacha's destruction had freed her from the Manor's control, at least temporarily, but she was still a Fear now, and bound to the same power that the Master now held again.

You belong by my side.

It had to end here and now. Destroy the Manor, destroy the Master, destroy everything.

You belong in Hell, Soyer...

That brought a laugh. She hated the sound of his laugh, it made her stomach lurch.

Been there. Nice place. Perhaps I'll show you someday...

The massive double doors closed behind her. There would be no running from the Manor this time.

--

After everything that had happened in Haven over the past few days, it's hard for you to say that waking up inside of a decrepit old building is the worst. But as you look around and see that you are not the only one here, not by far, and as the feel of the building begins to permeate the air you start to realize exactly where you are and how much peril you are in...

You are trapped in the heart of the evil that has covered the city, trapped in the Pegasus Manor itself.

Oh good, my guests have arrived... The rich voice seems to come from everywhere, there's no pinning it down. I thought it fitting to have a bit of entertainment before I ascend to godhood in this petty little hovel. Thus, a masquerade ball of sorts. Every night, my Fears will kill one of you. Only one, I'm not unsporting. The only way to stop this is to find them all and destroy them. Of course, they all look just like you, act just like you, and there's only one way to find out if someone is truly one of my Fears...

Suspicious eyes start to scan the crowd. You can already feel several sets on you. All of a sudden you realize you're not only trapped in the Manor, but you're trapped in the Manor with at least three dozen people that all could kill you at any moment.

Now then, I do believe I have a stairway to build. But please, do try and stop me, I could use the entertainment...

Day 1 Begins now and ends at 7 pm on Wednesday, Sept 16th. If you haven't already, please read the Extra Rules section, as they are very important.
