Who wouldn't want to hit on Hugh Laurie?

And it's not like David Beckham, Bill Gates or... well... any of them are better to hit on!

Are we supposed to be playing in character?

Your call... I will say that any of the celebs I put in this game could be "evil" in one respect of another... But if you don't think everyone else will be open to you character, your by no means forced to.

I don't trust MJ.
And I definitely don't trust Paradise who only votes no lynch when he's mafia.

Vote: Paradise
That's not true.

When I'm mafiate, I vote no lynch to appear townie.

When I'm townie, I vote no lynch because it is statistically better.

Anyway, since you want a day 1 lynch so bad, you're probably mafiate yourself. So there is no point for me to vote a no lynch, you're a very good bet.

Unvote: No lynch

Vote: Nag Ehgoeg

I'd like to remind everyone that this day will end tonight at 7:00 PM (I suppose it is Eastern Summer Time, but I'm unsure).

By lynching me, you are lynching the cop. And now I have no choice but to ask for protection from the Doctor or otherwise the Town is screwed.

EDIT: Unvoting NE, just in case he is my Savior.

Unvote: Nag Ehgoeg

Vote: No lynch

It seems that I will be lynched so here are my instructions for the Town:

The most suspicious players right now are obviously NH and NE. If we make the assumption there are 2 mafiates, then it is highly probable that at least one of them is mafiate.

NH is usually very careful not to lynch a Townie. The fact that he is now willing to lynch the cop makes him the #1 suspect. Therefore, I suggest that on Day 2 everybody vote NH.

Unvote: No lynch

Vote: New Harumf

This vote is merely symbolic. The Day 2 vote, I hope, will not.

NE is the #2 suspect. Lynch him on Day 3 if necessary.

Day 1 is over...

Drums are heard from the base camp. The celebs gather along with an ape and some random guy.

*Typical Ryan Seacrest-like gameshow voice*
The votes have been tallied.....
*Commercial Break*
ONE vote for Jackson (Bobo roars).......
*Commercial Break*
But two votes for Bill Gates (Paradise), Bill Gates is voted off Celebrity Island. Bill Gates gets up furiously....
*Commercial Break*
"This is the man trying to keep me down. The MAN. But I'll be back. I'll get Apple, I'll break the anti-trust agreements. When I do, look out...

Night One has begun. PM your roles... Night ends at 11:00 AM Wednesday (around 40 hours from this post), or whenever all night roles are in.

Feel free to RP how the celebs handle the night on the island... No voting or game-talk though.

David Beckham thoroughly enjoys the daytime, but as night approaches his cool, coiffed hair provides little resistance to the cold night air.

"Oh, there is just no one young and innocent to cuddle up with, Bobo! What shall I do? I don't have my oxygen chamber either! Eeek!! A big bug, run Bobo, run."

With that, The King of Pop goes running down the beach like a nancy boy, and will probably be running all night.

Bobo, however, is wondering what sort of "role" Mr. Gates had? Bobo wonders, was he town, or Mafia?

Night One is over.
No one died.

Across the island the celebs are dealing with the elements in different ways...... A recap of the nights events:

John Doe, seems to be the fascination of everyone... Typical of the celebs to target the unknown.

David Beckham seems to be worried only about his hair. He sleeps in the same tree as Tom Cruise.

Speaking of Tom Cruise and the tree he slept in... It turns out swinging from the trees like he jumps from buildings is something he should leave to his stunt doubles. He is left unconscious higher up in the tree after grabbing a bad vine.

M. Night Shyamalan's mind seems elsewhere. Perhaps a new (terrible) horror movie?

Michael Jackson meanwhile is seen prancing around the island, at one point, stopping, yelling at the sky, saying he has seen the light.

Hugh Laurie dreams about the set of House.

OJ searches all night for MJ's white glove, which he found very pretty, but can't find it.

Day Two Starts Now.
It will end on Saturday at 10:00 AM.

Ok, let's recap what we know:

Survivor is supposed to be team based - but goes solo eventually.
Whether or not that's the case here remains to be seen. It probably doesn't.

If the game does go solo (unlikely)... then it's a pretty good job that Paradise is dead. With no role confirmation he could have had an investigation role (whether cop, spy or independent) but that would just make him more dangerous than everyone else.

If the game doesn't go solo, then there's no indication that Paradise was for the town - cop or not.

No-one died in the night, but the night lasted as long as it could have.
So... that suggests to me that either the mafia players didn't log on (or forgot) or they deliberately made it look like they forgot. Checking the logs now - inactivity might have just won the town the game.

[Edit]

Everyone playing logged in today. So no joy there.

It seems like these two were targeted. Or at least the first one, for sure. Flumes' wording seems to hint at it, anyway.

Well, then. What do we know about this John Doe character? Who is playing John Doe, for that matter? Let's sort this out now. Also, who was Paradise playing?? Oh, yeah. Bill Gates. No loss there!

Targeted by what? I wonder.

Not that it'll help being as how we don't know which players go with which characters.

I wanna hear from TC. And I wanna know who John Doe is.

I say we break this problem down using a little table.

What do we know?

It's a mafia game.
Paradise/Bill Gates lynched on day 1. Role claim of cop.
No kill on night one.
Most players very quiet.

Survivor theme. Significance unknown.
Interesting night messages. Significance unknown.

Here's some conjecture for you.

Either John Doe or Tom Cruise is mafia - this taking the "hints" given by flumes to be accurate.
Tom Cruise might well be the one non-random role.
Players with special roles are usually quiet. I know my game wasn't the best example - mafia games getting dull and all - but take a look at the low level of chatter when everyone has a role. Special roles tend to not draw attention to themselves.
Given the celebrity theme... it's not a stretch to assume that everyone has "something" that makes them special, making no-one really special.

Here's a purely arbitrary vote:

Vote: Esternarx

He's not contributed anything yet. If he speaks up, he saves his life and I pick on the next quiet person.

Though I am "special," I am not the one to convict.
And if the judge is a racist twit, you must acquit!

Care to share any input on the game? Thoughts? Anything at all E?

Pegging you by character, I'm guessing you have a one shot kill. Probably one that kills you several turns later. :P

By the by guys - this is why we should never vote off Paradise on day one. He's chatty! And mafia or not he get's people to organise and share thoughts.

I'm hesitant to call "bandwagoner" on NH (seeing as I was the other person to vote off Paradise), but I might just do it.

Unvote: Esternarx
Vote: lebowski2123


Never trusted old Becks.

OK, what I know:

Lebowski - David Beckham
New Harumf - Michael Jackson
Esternarx - O.J. Simpson

Don't know anyone else. Anyone what to fess up? Or do I just have to vote for someone I don't know.

I know, I'll let Bubbles the Chimp loose, and whoever he approaches, I'll vote for.

Sorry for the delay.... 10 A.M. Saturday stands.....

Drums are heard around the island, signaling celebs to the camp. The celebs seem to fear each other more then anything, avoiding contact in fear of creating enemies. Only one celeb dares take a journey to the voting box for fear of rousing doubt... Just like that, David Beckham (Lebowski) is voted off the Island. Beckham was the princess. The town will be in a day of mourning tomorrow, and will not be able to vote anyone off the island.

The night has now began. Night 2 will end Tuesday at 10 A.M. Due to the mourning, Day 3 will be short, and will end on Tuesday at 10 P.M.
