Summary of votes for arrest so far:
Steve100 - 3 votes
inzomnia - 2 votes
At this stage, only 5 players out of 15 have registered a vote, so DAY 1 will continue to give a chance for other players to vote. Some players have hardly posted in the thread at all yet.
[size=+1]The final deadline for DAY 1 votes is 10 hours from the time of this post.[/size]
Any votes or changes for day 1 after that time will be ignored. Day 1 will definitely end between 10 and 12 hours from the time of this post. Then, NIGHT 1 will begin.
[size=+1]Note: NIGHT does NOT start until I say it starts. Mafia may not talk to each by PM until NIGHT is announced.[/size]
When NIGHT falls, I will announce who has been arrested and removed from the game.
Remember that only your most recent vote will count, and only votes posted in bold on a separate line will count (otherwise I might not see them when I review the thread).
If any registered players have not posted in this thread at all when DAY 1 ends, I will look to replace them with other people who want to play, on the assumption that they weren't serious about taking part.
During the NIGHT, I will close this thread so that non-Mafia players cannot talk to each other (remember, it is cheating to talk by PM to other players during the NIGHT). After it starts, NIGHT will continue either until all 5 Mafia have sent their kill votes to me by PM, or until 24 hours real time has passed (whichever comes first).
I think from DAY 2 onwards, I will make each DAY-NIGHT cycle last for 24 hours real time, with NIGHT hopefully considerably shorter than DAY. That way, there'll be no doubt about when to get your votes in. Obviously, I have to sleep in real life (and I have other things I need to do), and given that players are in different time zones, a 24 hour cycle should give all players a chance to play the game.
