Okay, quick comment: It looks like everyone did indeed receive the role they submitted *except* what doesn't fit is that DA was asking for more roles late in the warmup period. That means that some people may indeed have gotten roles they didn't write?
From the sounds of it, cj and Daius wrote theirs. I know Spork wrote his, I wrote mine, and Dac wrote his. Any others?

I am Donnie Darko! I got my own character, not the mechanics though. Here are the mechanics I got (strongly paraphrased because I'm still not sure I fully understand them): Mechanics: Disciplinary Procedures- Each day, you will gain power for each person who quotes you and will be able to issue a demerit to someone. (only once per person) For each quoting you claim include a link to the quoting post in a PM to Deep Thought. If you don't gather a signifigant number (or all for a day) in a single PM Deep Thought will cut you. If someone has three demerits they receive a citation. If they receive three citations and they receive a violation. If they receive two violations then they will be removed from the game. (People who are being discipline by you will be informed of their status each night, but not what that entails. You may only proceed up one step on a target each night. You may issue three demerits to a person on night one. You may issue 6 demerits (2 additional citations) on the second night or any night they have a citation already on them. If I'm explaining this poorly PM me for clarification.) --- Put more simply-- Each day for each separate person who quotes you (and you include a link to where in a PM a link of that quoting) you gain the ability to hand out a single demerit that night. You could concievably hand out 24 demerits in a single night. --- In retrospect, I should have chosen someone less depressing to roleplay!

I got the hardest of my three submissions (IMO) to roleplay. I don't quite have their voice in my head like I do with the other two.
(Creating a new topic for the mechanics)

EDIT: Nevermind, missed the note about stepping up citations on people already with them.
2 violations for removal. 3 citations per violation = 6 citations for removal. 3 demerits per citations = 18 demerits for removal.
You can apply 3 demerits per day, or 6 if the person already has a citation on them.
...so why are we even using demerits? Why not just use citations? Am I missing a marginal step here?

Well, I can kill someone in 4 nights. 1 quote=1 demerit. So you guys should quote me!
First night--3 demerits Second night--6 demerits -Third night--6 demerits Fourth night--3 demerits
I'm just worried that my incessant quote-whoring will get me killed.

Ohhhhh, okay. I missed that you can only hand out a demerit for each person who quotes you. For whatever reason, I conflated that with the 3x, so I thought you could dump 3 demerits onto anyone who quoted you...

Assuming Spork's power doubles mine, I could do this:
#=posts required (effect) first night--1 (2) second night 3 (6) third night 3 (6) fourth night 2 (4)
It would still take four nights to kill someone, but the post quote requirement would be 9 instead of 18. I could realistically have a couple kill trains going at the same time, and maybe get ~4 kills over the course of the game.
Or I could just give everyone who's not us a demerit and spread chaos.

I think you're the best target for it, assuming Hylianbunny didn't end up with the power I originally submitted for this role. That one has the chance for *all* sorts of hilarity.
Yeah, so we'll quote you a ton (or maybe only once a day to throw off the trail!). Daius seems quote resistant right now, though. I think he's wary of quote based powers (as should we all).

I can only get quote-power from each person once a day, so no reason to go overboard quoting me. Right now these people have quoted me:
Gandalf Ultros64 piL Daius SpectralSpork Spectrum Dunadan019
I'll put each demerit on a different person for the first night.

You sure? It may be worthwhile to dump a citation on certain people instead, just to kill them quicker. Like, kill the dangerous ones or something instead of spreading out the pain.

I put a citation on these people: Daius, Gandalf_The_Crazed, Rend, Obbi
Which, now that it looks like GTC is going to die, was a bad idea. oh well.
