Come in under the shadow of this red rock, and I will show you something that is different from either your shadow at morning striding behind you, or your shadow at evening rising to meet you: I will show you fear in a handful of dust.

In order for the procedure to flow smoothly (you will be processed and eliminated in an orderly manner), you shall submit two words to define your inner nature.

In order that we shall not forget you (you will be remembered long after you are gone), you will submit a single flavour element to define your secret.

It is important that you know that two is not four. (It is important that you know that three is not four either.)

You will never need to vote for anything which is outside the game. I am outside the game. Therefore, you will never need to vote for me. If you have questions, you may ask them in slate grey. I am not obliged to answer questions. (I am not obliged to do anything.)

Those who (in terror of death), having given of themselves, beneath white linens, go unrewarded:

I'm currently dead, but I'm getting warmer. So, since I have the next slot, I might as well start preparing to run a game. Don't expect me to put any effort in until I'm done being sick (probably four-five days or so).

I mean, don't expect me to put any effort in afterward either, but at least I won't have an excuse anymore.

If you are interested, you may choose one of three options. I have previously contracted to run a BBBYOR, which is definitely a thing which should be obvious from the name. I also have a cool new concept called Supernormal. Or, I could just make up some total bullshit, which will certainly not be balanced in any way but since a lot of the strongest players have vanished that may still be just fine.

BBBYOR Not Four is going to be a lot of effort on my part and might not actually be worth the trouble, but I did promise it. Supernormal will definitely be a barrel full of something. If I make something up from scratch, CAVEAT LUSOR.

Please begin competing for my affection now.
I'm excited to see BBBYOR, and I definitely know exactly what it means.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

Maybe I explain a little more.

BBBYOR Not Four is the Beginner Bastard Bring-Your-Own-Role. Most of you voting for that probably know that from the queue thread, but, to elaborate further, that means winning means more than just playing mafia. You will submit certain words and I will give you a role that may or may not be what you wanted. Then you will have to discover the secrets of the world in which you are trapped.

Supernormal is a defined setup inspired by Supernatural and Paranormal, is intended to be an ongoing series like those, and is "¾-bastard". Winning still means playing mafia, but... well, I promise it is a very normal game. You can trust me.

If I make up something new, may God have mercy on your souls, except your God will be me, and I won't.

All options are guaranteed to be dangerous and weird. Some of you may not survive. It's a chance I'm willing to take.

...I suddenly feel my (unofficial) win condition changing to "Get voted out Day 1 and escape this monstrosity"  :P

But still "interesting", I wager.

It is quite a challenge, indeed. Fallacy does tend to dive upon that Day 1 elim...

So, that's three for BBBYOR (I think that's what Tric means) and three for Supernormal. Anyone want to tiebreak?
