--Masquerade Mafia--

One thousand men, one thousand sins
In seven rooms, the ball begins
Outside, the masses weep and cry
Red Death has come, the end is nigh

Inside the prince named Prospero
Protected from the frigid snow
Decrees to all: Red Death is dead!
We dance and dine and feel no dread

Though six rooms contain rainbow’s hue
Red, Orange, violet, all through blue
The last stands empty, darkest black

In the corner the clock clangs the hour
Fearsome is its hypnotic pow’r
Then at midnight, a guest’s alone
The Red Death issues forth a moan

A bloody robe drapes over him
A bony mask and bony limbs
Chased by the prince to the last room
He turns around—the Prince’s Doom
The Lord falls dead at the sight
Around him nobles gasp in fright
And then as one, all men freeze
Their bodies seized by dread disease

And so each one falls to the Death
And so each one breaths his last breath
And so mankind’s last stronghold falls
And so the Castle has empty halls
And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death hold illimitable dominion over all.
I'm a terrible poet
RULES (Extremely abbreviated and with horrendous grammar :p)
There will be no night phases. Don’t ask me what resistance means because I won’t tell you. No out of thread communication at all, unless specified in your PM. Don’t quote any PMs from me or attempt to avoid this rule—Paraphrasing is fine. Tell me via PM if I screw up. No support votes or abstains. Inactive 3 times in a row/4 times total without notice will result in a Wrath of God kill. If you’re changing your vote, have your old vote struck through in the same post as the new vote please to make counting easier. 48 hour days, at least at first. No forced clues, though clues will be given.

*runs* innnnnnn!
 
In. Interesting, although I imagine people will communicate out-of-thread anyway.
 
No out of thread communication about this game. That's not unreasonable at all, especially for a mafia game. It's not like I'm stopping you from talking about NotW or life in general :p

I know I personally almost never converse about mafia outside of the thread regardless of whether its allowed or not.
 
Welcome to CFC, aspie. Since this is your first game, we promise to wait at least one day* before backstabbing you.

*Definition of "One Day" is arguable.
 
IN, and you are most certainly NOT a terrible poet, IMO.
 
Pit and the Pindulum.

(Also electric is right about CC's general un-suckery at poetry. In that Rhyme Mafia game I hosted a while back he was just putting the mafiosi's balladry to shame, bringin' on the boogie droppin' rhymes like rain.)
 
It is a very nice poem and I'm in.
 
I would like to get around 15 before starting so we'll wait until then.

15 being the least I want, please keep signing up even once we get that
 
in if you have role PMs :p
 
Given TLO and Autolycus's sign-up, we probably just have to wait another day for a fourth person to die in NOTW so they'll sign up here.
