AND SO IT BEGINS....
"That was a lovely meal,
Professor Askvaard!"
Indeed, a finer meal they had never tasted. These people were mostly from the upper crust of society... Senators, lawyers, judges, scientists, media moguls, and wealthy businessmen and women. Although the entrees served were simple, they were absolutely delicious and made from only the finest ingredients. The chef was rumored to be a genius who made seven figures a year, serving only the most elite clientele in all the land.
Askvaard: "My friends, I've invited you all here to announce that I will be made the new Dean of Mozzarella University. In celebration of this achievement of my lifelong dreams, I wanted to surround myself will all my closest friends and give them a meal they'd never forget. But it occurs to me that a party just isn't complete without a party game. Wouldn't this evening be made even more memorable with a game? Perhaps a game that utilizes our obviously superior wits and intellect?"
The many dinner guests nodded in agreement. It was a splendid idea.
Askvaard: "Great! Okay, here's how the game is played. No one may leave the mansion until the game is complete. I had the butler lock the doors and windows, and I have the only keys. No breaking my expensive windows, now!"
The others chuckled nervously. Was it really necessary to lock them in? It was just a game, after all.
Askvaard: "The game will be split into 'day' and 'night' phases. During the 'day', you will accuse one another of being the dastardly, murdering 'mafia' among you. When you've made your selection, by a democratic vote, you will then 'lynch' the offending player and they will be 'dead'. They can still talk and accuse people, but they can't vote. And I'd actually prefer they lay perfectly still on the carpeting and do their best to pretend to be dead, because it adds to the atmosphere.
Those of you who are 'dead' will be splattered with red food coloring to indicate where you've been wounded. (Don't worry, it washes out! It's perfectly safe!) Feel free to give us a nice, hammy bit of dramatic death acting before you go. It's all in good fun, of course.
During the 'night', I'll shut off all the lights in the mansion, and the 'mafia' will sneak off and 'murder' some of you. When you've been hit, you must lay down and start pretending to be dead, minus your occasional accusatory comment during the day phases, of course.
Those of you who I haven't already spoken to are considered the "townsfolk". You're innocent, good-guy civilians who wouldn't hurt a fly, except you've got to find the 'mafia' by lynching people. The rest of you I've spoken to already were given a special role to play in this game. You are to follow my hidden instructions exactly! No breaking the rules!"
They noticed that the guests had been divided into the soup eaters, the beef eaters, and the chicken eaters.
Askvaard: "Oh yes, and there's some significance to who ate what entree.... maybe. Maybe there isn't. I'd certainly love for you to guess why I've done that! Tee hee! One small matter.... I won't announce if you've caught one of the guilty scumbags, until you've caught them
all. I wouldn't want to make things
too easy on you!"
It
did sound like a fun game. Surely this was going to be the best Dinner Party ever!
