I repeat to both Gwynedd as Ps, stories are stories, no information is given other than about those that have been killed. If my stories suggest otherwise this is purely coincidental, and unintended.
i already said that, taxing the rich less leads to more investments, which leads to more jobs, and if there is more work, wages go up. demand and supply
Oo
what?
my point is that its better to pay a highe % of tax on more money than it is to pay a lower % of tax on less money
with a flat tax (or something in that direction) the poor earn more, but would have to pay a higher %
The idea behind it is that you make the poor less poor so they can pay more taxes.
It's better for the poor guy if you take 25% of $400 leaving $300 than 15 % of $350, leaving $297.5.
Note that these numbers are an example, not based on anything.

haha, flint.
i have always been a conservative liberal according to dutch standards. US republican standards take it a couple of steps too far in my opinion, but that doesnt mean the basics are wrong.
I don't believe in a flat tax, i also dont believe in taxing the rich till they're poor.
not entirely fair.
sure, there's a lot of promises that havent been fullfilled, that is what politcs is. he still needs the backing of the senate, doesnt he?
and not achieving something as fast as you want it, does not mean not achieving it at all.
and on the relationship with the rest of the world (i can only speak for western europe really), it has been improved.
in quick, it has been proven that 'taxbreaks for the rich' stimulate investments, which in turn increases the demand for labour, which in turn also increases wages for the working man.
But if you want to discsus that indepth, you should probably open another thread, WFS

keep it friendly people.
To keep morale up, after the horrible lynch of this afternoon, the King organised a tourney for his knights. After a long and fierce competition it was time for the final between Zarf and Sir Arsbury, duke of Wales, Lord Protector of sheep. The sun had set, and the tilt yard was lit up by torches. Zarf put on his heavy armour, and got on his horse. As customary both knights rode up to pay their respects to the King before the joust.
Zarf opened his visor and greeted the King. It raised quite a few eyebrows when Lord Arsbury greeted the King without raising his visor. Sir Arsbury usually was a very respectful knight. The two knights made way to their side of the tilt yard. Silence crept over the crowd as the tension rose. The two knights started their approach, picking up speed as they went along.
It was at this moment, Zarf first noticed something was wrong, but it was too late to do something about it. His saddle started slipping to the left side, and he started to lose his balance. In an attempt to stay on his horse, Zarf dropped his shield and lance, and tried to steer away from his rapidly approaching opponent. The crowd averted their eyes as the lance pentrated Zarf's armour where his adam's apple once was. Zarf dropped to the floor, with a piece of broken off lance sticking out of his dead body. Splinters of wood laid all over the tilt yard, and blood gushed from the open wound. The King's bodyguard was the first at the scene. "Somebody call the barber surgeon", he said, realizing his mistake as he said it.
As soon as they found out the loyal Knight Zarf was dead, they came to the realisation his opponent wasn't around anymore. When searching Sir Arsbury's tent, they found him laying on his bed, tied up, unconcious and naked. After further investigation, the dead body of Zarf's squire was found in the woods. This clearly was no accident.
************************************
The Foreign Assassin was in a bad mood today. He was growing tired of having to perform his nightly duties, and having to participate in the daily social life. The lack of sleep and the recuring stress of almost being caught were getting to him.
The Assassin decided to take out some of his frustration on whoever was today
thanks for that useful update alch.

The Foreign Assassin had his instruments properly cleaned and oiled for use; his list of targets in hand. Ready for the night, the Assassin set off down the dark corridors.
****************************************
Genesis was on his way to his quarters after a long surgery on a nun's toe. The toe was saved, but the doctor had a different fate. As he opened the heavy wooden door to his room, he heard a faint sound from his room. After a long and tiring night Genesis paid no attention to it, thinking his mind was playing tricks on him. He walked straight to his bed, and took his clothes off, suddenly remembering he still had to feed his cat. As the doctor turned around to go for some food, a shadow jumped from behind a curtain, not even giving him time to scream. After wrestling for a couple of minutes the Usurper managed to hit Genesis' head on to the wall with force. As the doctor tried to recover from this blow, the Usurper punched him in the groin. Genesis collapsed in agony. After that everything went dark, the doctor was no more.

I apologize for the problems we had setting up the game. Our internet company decided to cancel our subscription a month earlier than we intended, meaning eltie and i wont have internet in the near future. people should message alch in 5097 as well as princess sofia.
ask the other drunk bums... They can all access it.
aaaaand back in de amedee.
I would like to point out one more time that showing any sort of interaction with the game moderators is absolutely forbidden, as is showing your role description. Doing this will result in your sudden death, and you will be banned from future games.
Even offering to do so is against game rules.
Just don't do this, it ruins the fun for everyone.
And it all starts again!
Alchoran, Eltara and I will be hosting this game, and we aim to get started this weekend. This means sign ups are NOW OPEN! Keep checking back on this thread for updated information!
The following are the characters in this game. These will be allocated at random to those who sign up:
1 - Queen
1 - Prince
7 - Usurpers
1 - Foreign Assassin
1 - King
1 - Barber Surgeon
1 - King's Bodyguard
1 - Courtesan
12 - Knights
= 24 players
* Note that the number of roles is dependant of the number of sign ups, this may still change.
**** NIGHT PHASE - WHO DOES WHAT? ****
Each phase of the game begins with the night. The following can happen during this time:
- The King is the leader of the kingdom of Anzio. During the night he will be able to give the King's blessing to one of the knights, who, in case the Court tries to lynch him during the day, will be saved. The King can not bless himself, and even he is not allowed to bless the same person twice in a row.
- The Queen is the leader of the Usurpers. She is not elected, and will have final say on who is killed at night, and who conducts the kill. She will be immune to being killed at night.
- The Courtesan is a pro-court secret role.
- The Prince is a pro-usurpers secret role. The only thing that is known about him, is that he will take over leadership of the Usurpers, with the same powers as the Queen had.
- The Foreign Assassin is a hired killer who kills one person every night. He works alone. He cannot be cured, however he can be killed at night, and lynched during the day.
- The Barber Surgeon chooses one person to spare in the event that that person is chosen for death by the Usurpers or Foreign Assassin. The Barber Surgeon cannot heal himself and he is also forbidden to heal the same person two nights in a row. Healing the Foreign Assassin does not cure him.
- The King's Bodyguard can carry out an investigation on their target to find out their role. Note that investigations on the Queen or the Foreign Assassin will show up as pro-Court.
**** DAY PHASE - LYNCHING ****
During the day phase, the town will find out who has been murdered. All townsfolk (including the Usurpers, the Foreign Assassin, the Barber Surgeon, and the King's Bodyguard) can then vote who they think are the Usurpers. This is the lynching process. There will be a deadline to which the people must vote by. If there is a draw, the deadline will be extended and voting will remain open for those who have tied. If there is still a draw by the new deadline, there will be no lynch. Once the result is in, the person will then be dead and their role will be revealed. Then that round is over and night begins again when the night roles make their next choices.
All votes must be made in the forum in new posts (do not edit old posts).
**** WHO WINS? ****
The Usurpers will win if they manage to kill off everyone else. The Foreign Assassin wins if he is the last person alive and the rest win if they manage to kill off the Usurpers and the Foreign Assassin.
**** RULES ****
Everyone who is alive is allowed to post in the thread to discuss who they think are the Usurpers or try to make themselves less suspicious (if they are Usurpers!). You may NOT quote any part of messages sent by the game moderator, or conversations with them. Doing so is regarded as cheating and will result in your sudden death, and your exclusion from future games.
If any townsfolk miss the lynching voting on at most 2 occasions, they will be mod killed and replaced with a reserve. If no reserves are remaining, their role will be removed and revealed. Reserves will no longer be used after the 4th night.
If you die, the game is over for you and you are not permitted to discuss the game with any of the people still playing. Doing so will result in a ban from future games. Please don't spoil it for everyone else.
**** SIGN UP ****
For those who want to play, you can do this by ingaming Princess_Sofia in #5097 or emailing [email protected] and say who you are and that you want to play mafia.
Deadline to do this is 20:00 UK time on Saturday 23th July.
Once the deadline is reached, I will use a random Excel formula to pick our players and will publish the list below. Role descriptions will be sent out shortly after and we'll begin!
Again, you cannot sign up if you are forum banned and I will be using the last game to judge whether you're IRC active enough to play!
