    Night 1

    The debate was interrupted by a poorly dressed madman.
    "You're all in grave danger!" He cried.
    The House of Commons all started to shout out in fear and anger. Accusations were thrown, but most were directed at the intruder.
    "Please, Prime Minister, please listen to me!"
    The man ran up to Cameron and tried to grasp his hands, but was restrained by a security guard. He struggled against his captor, still crying out about an imminent threat. The guard dragged him out of the room, and the man was jailed for life.
    Dear Zexy, you are Rufus Scrimgeour.
    latest

    You were once the leader of the Ministry of Magic, and though you often tried to coerce Harry Potter into supporting the ministry in the magical war, you were ultimately loyal to him when you were tortured for information and killed by death eaters. The Ministry of Magic is, of course, a completely real ministry that definitely exists.
    According to the Quibbler, you are a werewolf. As the Quibbler is always right, you are a Werewolf. Every night, you may visit a target or remain at home. If you visit someone, you will kill them and anyone who visits them. If you stay at home, you will kill anyone who attacks you.
    You are allied with the Ministry of Magic and win when all muggles are dead.
    As the gathered politicians calmed down, another tragedy struck. Two ex-leaders slumped forwards, dead in their seats.
    Dear leetic, you are Nick Clegg!
    Nick-Clegg.jpg

    You are the ex-leader of the Liberal Democrat Party, and the MP for Sheffield Hallam. You resigned from leadership after a terrible loss in the 2015 election, where the number of lib dem MPs dropped from 56 to 8. The likely cause of this defeat was the tuition fees scandal, in which your party raised the cap on university tuition fees from £3000 to £9000 as part of the coalition with the conservatives, something that you swore not to do as part of your election campaign, and which subsequently shattered the public's trust in your party.
    You are a rolecop. Each night you may choose someone to investigate and you will discover their role, but not their alignment.
    Dear Slife, you are Ed Miliband.
    ed-miliband.jpg

    You are the ex-leader of the Labour Party, and the MP for Doncaster North. You may have had good policies, but your unfortunate habit of pulling ridiculous faces (especially while eating sandwiches) overshadowed your policies, and the public ridicule may have ultimately been your downfall. When Labour lost the 2015 election, you resigned and were succeeded by Jeremy Corbyn.
    You are the Gladiator. Twice in the game you may choose to challenge another player, and you will be the only two potential lynch candidates the next day.

    It is now night 1. This phase will last 24 hours.
    Jackatlasred no longer has to end his posts with the given sentence.
     
    Day 1
  • The elections had begun. All across the uk, politicians began their election campaigns in order to gain the support of the people. However, the media following the trail was unaware of, or perhaps silenced about, the darker side of the political world.
    As the parties gathered for a particularly important Prime Minister's Questions, the game began.

    Event: The user known as Maniacal Engineer cannot be voted. Attempts to do so will backfire.

    It is now Day One. This phase will end in 21 hours and 20 minutes.
    Etrian Oddity has 24 hours to confirm, or will be subbed out.
     
    Day 2
  • Sorry it's late, my parents sprung a meal out on me.
    The politicians curled up in their beds, getting a good night's sleep before the TV debate the next morning.
    Just as he was applying his last minute makeup, Andrew Marr received an urgent bulletin:
    Good News ---!

    Even if --- Engineer survives --- night, his --- 1 immunity --- lynching has --- ended, in --- case, let's --- with his --- mass lynching --- day 2 :D

    --- he's already --- then let's --- our respects --- his passing --- a day --- puns instead.



    It is now day two. You may vote.
     
    Night 2
  • Votecount:
    Jackatlasred - 4 - IGN, Sword Master, AussieEevee, Rainbow Cloud
    Maniacal Engineer - 1 - Jackatlasred

    During the debate, the matter of the previous day's murders was brought up.
    "I think," announced the Prime Minister, "that he did it." He pointed to the man standing behind one of the podiums.
    "Don't be absurd!" The man replied. "In fact, surely it was someone in your party? After all, nobody died from your party."
    "Nobody died in your party either," the Prime minister pointed out.
    "My dear sir, since when has anyone seen my party as a threat? Yours, on the other hand..."
    The media went wild. A murderer in the conservatives? It was a scandal. David Cameron's leadership was undermined, and he was forced to resign.

    Dear jackatlasred, you are David Cameron.
    cameron.jpg

    You are the current Prime Minister for the UK, and the leader of the Conservative Party. Your constituency is Witney, a small county in Oxfordshire. Some people believe you will save Britain from its debt and give the country a better future. Others believe that you only wish to make the rich richer and the poor poorer. Others still couldn't care less, but are highly amused by the rumours involving yourself and a pig. Either way, you are a talented speaker who often dominates the news.
    As a party leader, it is your job to organise your party, and if you gain a factional kill you will be the one to carry it out.
    Meanwhile, The Master celebrated a personal victory and left to further travel across time and space.
    Dear Sword Master, you are The Master, AKA Harold Saxon.
    a478c6b2ae29b1f94af145e702219b11.jpg

    You are the leader, and sole member, of the Saxon Party. You took over the UK after convincing everyone to vote for you via a subconscious message broadcasted by the Archangel Network. Once gaining power, you murdered the American President before using the Toclafane to butcher one tenth of the world's population and enslave the rest in order to prepare for intergalactic war.
    You harbour a strong hatred for anyone who isn't you, especially Jackatlasred. In fact, your objective within this game is to lynch them. If you succeed, you will be removed from the game as a victor. If they are killed by any other method, you will become a jester.
    You are allied with the Saxon Party. You win when Jackatlasred is lynched.
    It is now night 2. This phase will last 24 hours.

    Endgame
  • The man pulled on his trench coat, placed his fez on his head and checked his watch.
    He wandered down the corridors of Parliament until he encountered a man wearing a suit with a canary-yellow tie.
    "Ah, Tim," he said with a smile. "Just the man I wanted to talk to."
    "Good morning, Mr Engineer. How are you?" Tim asked.
    "I'm fine," the Engineer replied. "I just wanted to ask you a question."
    "Fire away."
    "What party do you belong to?"
    Tim Farron frowned with confusion at the absurd question. "The Liberal Democrats, of course. Why?"
    "No reason." The Maniacal Engineer checked his watch, which now read 12.
    "Goodbye, Tim."
    Calmly, he walked out of parliament. As he reached the Thames, a loud explosion shattered the air.
    "Goodbye, Tim. You lose."
    Dear Maniacal Engineer, you are Maniacal Engineer!
    78329.jpg

    I don't think we need an explanation here, do you?
    You are wearing the atomic watch. The watch starts at 9. If the watch reaches 6, it will explode and kill you. If it reaches 12, it will explode and kill everyone except you. If it hits 11, you gain a single bulletproof ability. You have a number of abilities:
    The Interrupting Knife - If anyone says the words "Maniacal" or "Engineer" in the game thread, you may interrupt them with a knife. This will kill them. However, you may not kill Maniacal Engineer himself. If they are Labour, the clock goes up two hours. If they are Conservative, the clock goes down an hour. If they are Liberal Democrat, the clock goes up three hours. If they are any other party, the clock goes down by two hours.
    Maniacal Engineer's Trench Coat (3 uses) - You can wear your trench coat in order to inspect another player at night. Using this adds an hour to your watch.
    Safety Glasses (2 uses) - you can use these to limit the visibility of those reading the next update. Using this removes 3 hours from your watch.
    Suspicious Fedora (2 uses) - you can leave a suspicious fedora at someone's house at night and they will show up as negative to any inspections. Using this adds 5 hours to your watch.
    You are allied with the Monster Raving Loony Party. You win if you are one of three or fewer living players.
    Maniacal Engineer's watch struck 12! He has won the game!

    Dear Rainbow Cloud, you are Michael Gove.
    Michael-Gove-on-a-school--008.jpg

    You are the Conservative Party MP for Surrey Heath, as well as the current justice secretary, though until the 2014 reshuffle you were the highly unpopular education secretary. You have received votes of no confidence from multiple teachers' unions, and your plans to completely reform the GCSE system were rejected. You have been the subject of more than a few controversies and scandals, though how many are true is unknown.
    You are the Reporter. Every night, you may PM the host with an anonymous message to be published with the phase update.
    Your primary objective is to eliminate the Labour Party.
    Dear IGN, you are Boris Johnson.
    20145_Boris-Johnson-wins-seat-MP.jpg

    You are the mayor of London, and the Conservative Party MP for Uxbridge and South Ruislip. You say some odd things, and are perhaps best known for your love and encouragement of cycling. Though some people love you, others struggle to take you seriously as a politician, believing that your opinions are too easily changed.
    You are the Mayor. You have 2 shots at your role, which allows you to override any lynch with a candidate of your own.
    Your primary objective is to eliminate the Labour Party.
    Labour were eliminated! The Conservative Party win the game!

    Dear Kakashi Hatake, you are Jeremy Corbyn.
    jezzacorb_3377444b.jpg

    You are the controversial new leader of the Labour Party, and your constituency is Islington North. You have been in the Labour backbenches since the 1980s, but had little major influence in your party until you were elected leader. Your left-wing, pacifist policies are criticised by many, including the media, but they are also the reason for your support.
    As a party leader, it is your job to organise your party, and if you gain a factional kill you will be the one to carry it out. You have a cop ability that can be used on nights that are a multiple of 3 +1.
    Your primary objective is to eliminate the Conservative Party.

    The Conservatives were eliminated! The Labour Party win the game!

    Dear Hellcrow, you are Nigel Farage!
    6a00d8341bf8f353ef017eeacb1b2e970d.jpg

    You are the leader of the UK Independence party, or UKIP, and an MEP for South-East England. You are seen as incredibly charismatic, and are perhaps one of the only reasons for the success of the controversial, right-wing party. Your party has been slated as racist, sexist and homophobic due to some of the outrageous comments of some members.
    You helped set up UKIP after defecting from the Conservative Party, and a number of members are from similar backgrounds. As such, you are the Cult Leader. Every night, you may talk to someone in an attempt to convince them to defect. If you are successful, that player will join your party QT and share your win condition. There are many circumstances that may prevent your success. If you die, the first person to be converted will take your place. If nobody has been converted, your cult will die with you.

    You are allied with UKIP and win when your party equals or outnumbers the other players.
    Dear TheCapsFan, you are Harriet Harman.
    harman-harriet-415x275.jpg

    You have been the acting leader of the Labour Party twice, and the deputy leader for 8 years. You are the MP for Camberwell and Peckham. Interestingly, you are currently the longest serving female MP. You are now the Chair of the Joint Committee on Human Rights.
    You are the Doctor. Each night you may choose someone to protect from all factional kills.
    Your primary objective is to eliminate the Conservative Party.
    (Defected to UKIP)
    UKIP has lost the game!

    Dear AussieEevee, you are Tim Farron!
    maxresdefault.jpg

    You are the new leader of the Liberal Democrat Party, and the MP for Westmorland and Lonsdale. For a leader, you are relatively new to the party, having only been MP since 2005. You see yourself as a centrist on the political spectrum, and one of your main intentions as party leader is to try and create a political world that is ethnically and gender diverse, as you believe the balance of genders and ethnicities in the house of commons should reflect the rest of the UK. You have also been on Russell Howard's Good News, one of Doctor Floptopus's favourite shows, so good on you for that.
    As a party leader, it is your job to organise your party, and if you gain a factional kill you will be the one to carry it out. You have a cop ability that can be used on nights that are a multiple of 3 +2.
    Your primary objective is to have all your party members survive to the end of the game.
    This is your Cabinet QT: The Shadow Shadow Cabinet (Official Liberal Democrat QT) - QuickTopic free message board hosting

    The Liberal Democrats have lost the game!

    Citazens's rejoice, your Lord and Master stands on high!

    The loss of the PM has brought about a snap election, surprisingly Manical Engineer's Chaos Party was narrowly defeated by Etrian Oddity's rival Lazyness Party. Etrian Oddity is now on route to the RM Palace where he will meet with the reigning monarch Her Majesty Queen Flop I and will be asked to form a government.
