The club is thumping, the sweet electronic bass synching up with the beating of your heart. Neon lights highlight angels in the crowd and you’re like a kid in a candy store. Which one should you introduce yourself to first?
The lady on your arm clears her throat. “Shall we get a drink?”
“Sure,” you say.
You take a seat at the bar and your new friend orders for you. You don’t know what she bought you, you’re barely paying attention. The room is packed and you’re scoping the crowd, looking for familiar faces and finding so many that you swear you could recognise, if only you could place any names.
You feel something cool against your knuckles. A glass. “Yeah, thanks…”
“Carmen.”
“Right, Carmen.”
Her voice grates on your ears and you begin to tune out. You take a sip of your drink, the familiar sweet hint of rum is almost hidden under a criminal amount of watered down coke. You probably could’ve ordered something stronger at McDonald’s.
Carmen nudges your arm. “Look over there. Isn’t that Drew from, oh, what’s it called? You know that late night show where they interview washed-up celebrities? Surely you know the one.”
You follow her gaze to see a man seated at the other end of the bar, red in the face as he struggles to be heard by the bartender. After several attempts to make his order he turns and catches you both staring. Carmen averts her eyes, but you don’t. Drew aims two fingers at you, holds the pose, and mouths ‘bang’.
You take another sip of your drink. Look down. Look up. He’s gone. So is the bartender.
“Did you see where they went? you ask.
“Probably went for a quickie in the cloakroom.” Carmen shrugs and gets to her feet. “Don’t worry about them. Let’s go dance.”
You groan at the prospect, but she won’t take no for an answer. Downing what’s left of your drink in a single shot, you let the woman drag you into a sea of vaguely familiar faces. Try to remember them; after tonight no one else will.

Important New Information About this Game:
- Kills are not factional. This means all kills can potentially be prevented.
- You will only receive role block notifications if you act: no action = no notification.
- If you have more than one action and you are role blocked then all of your actions are blocked.
- If two people block one another both of their actions will be nullified.
- No action can be used on the same player twice in a row unless the action failed.
- You cannot communicate with other players outwith this thread unless I have given you a QuickTopic.
- Not new, but a reminder not to edit your posts in this thread or you will face a modkilli.
About Mini Games:
- The mini game final score determines the fate of our protagonist. There will be a running tally throughout the game of how many points each team has. Individual mini game winners will also be announced at the end.
- Like with ordinary actions, submit your mini game related actions to me via PM.
- Do not announce which mini game you’re participating in otherwise you will be modkilled.
Changes:
- I have increased day to 48 hours to compensate for the amount going on. I didn’t expect this many players and it looks like quite a few haven't played much / at all before, so I want to give people a chance to get their heads around it (and to see that the game has started). By Day 3 or 4 it can be reduced back to 24 hours - I’ll put up a poll at a relevant time.
- Technically, you only have 47 hours. The last hour is reserved for me to tally scores and prepare the night post.
