	Serial Killer Round 46 Burn the Witch Salem may be the most famous, but it was not the most bloody or disturbing of the witch hunts. No, that honour goes to a small English village of Murderville. A place that had always been filled with mysterious occurrences, lately it had become much worse. The cows had stopped giving milk, the hens didn't lay eggs, the wheat did not grow in the field. Then people started dying. The townsfolk were frightened, hysteria spread through the town like wild fire. "It must be the work of a witch, an agent sent by the devil to destroy this town!" No one was above being a suspect. Hushed whispers in the night spread malicious rumours quickly. "The butchers wife is the witch! She's punishing him for adultery" or "It must be the baker. How does he keep baking without wheat?". Some have even blamed the candlestick maker. People are starting to drop like flies, and you need to find the witch. Before they find you.

NeoAC	3 POSTED: 9 Jan 2013 18:55

	fires comically oversized catapult Number incoming. Watch your head.

CounterAttack	5 POSTED: 9 Jan 2013 20:13
	Alrighty. I shall find my dice and turn out a new number.

Mortis Nuncius	6 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 00:41
	Number on its way. ETA: Erm...soon?

Nouw	7 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 02:53
	Number sent! The Emperor is pleased with this round's theme.

Link_to_Future	8 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 03:17
	Excellent. The roles are back. :) sends number in some clever fashion

Diablo1099	9 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 03:21
	Alright, hope I don't die in the first round this time.

Lizmichi	10 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 07:22
	I guess I'll give an SK I'm not use to a spin. Number sent in.

razer17	11 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 14:28
	9 down, hopefully 20ish to go. Also, I'm a regular now. Well, I would be if I wasn't GM.

MortifiedPenguin	12 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 15:19
	The escapist ate my clever and witty comment :( Well, my number has been sent, see you all soon for some witch hunting.

Terratina.	13 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 15:30
	Normality is back! And so is a kickass theme! Number sent and awaiting response.

razer17	14 POSTED: 10 Jan 2013 15:41
	Say, theoretically speaking, 2 pairs of people pick the same number, or 2 numbers are equally distant from my number, who gets the role?

	razer17: Say, theoretically speaking, 2 pairs of people pick the same number, or 2 numbers are equally distant from my number, who gets the role? Flip a coin/random number generator? Or if you're feeling particularly nice and have the knowledge, whoever hasn't had a role the longest?

	razer17: Say, theoretically speaking, 2 pairs of people pick the same number, or 2 numbers are equally distant from my number, who gets the role? 'First in first served' is the way I've always done it.

RaNDM G	18 POSTED: 11 Jan 2013 01:30
	Number sent. I'll need my blunderbuss if we're doing this skit.

razer17	19 POSTED: 11 Jan 2013 13:49
	I think I'll go with first come first served. Seems fairer to give it to those who are quickest off the mark.

sky14kemea	20 POSTED: 11 Jan 2013 20:34
	So, when are we starting guys? O:

Redlin5	21 POSTED: 11 Jan 2013 21:13
	No user group notification? You know, before I got involved in the RPs I'm in now, I would have totally missed this. <.> Sending number now.

razer17	22 POSTED: 11 Jan 2013 22:06
	@Sky: There's still only 14 entrants, so it might be a little while yet.

NeoAC	23 POSTED: 11 Jan 2013 22:51
	@Red: I just made a news post in the thread there. If anyone viewing this thread hasn't joined it yet... http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/members/Serial-Killer-Group

	Nice! I can have an easier time keeping track now! :P Seriously though, while I'm glad we're not doing a total RP game, it was worth the experimentation, regardless if it was a little difficult to keep track of. And if it wasn't the route Skye intended. :P Sending number!

Zero_ctrl	25 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 01:01
	Rad! The setting works pretty well, IMO.

MinimanZombie	26 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 09:53
	Alright, sent my number...And I've pretty much only woken up, so no smart comment from me.

razer17	27 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 12:16
	Alright, we're up to 19 participants. I'd like at least 6 more, then I'll get the game underway.

sky14kemea	28 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 14:45
	@Razer: That might be wishful thinking. Just give it another day and see if we get a few more. Btw, aren't there meant to be an even number of participants when the Entwined are included? I forget. :I

Link_to_Future	29 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 16:43
	@sky: Nope, if the entwined are involved then it has to be an odd number to keep things balanced. :P

sky14kemea	30 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 17:04
	@Link: Shit, my bad. I'm really tired this week. o_o

Jak23	31 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 20:15
	Number sent! Do we not do Regulars anymore? I'm sure some of you have noticed, as of recently I have been very absent due to my computer being broken. However this is all about to change as I have decided to build my first gaming computer! Needless to say I am very excited about all of the possibilities that will soon open up to me when the final part arrives Monday.

razer17	32 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 22:16
	@Jak23: Yep, there's still a regulars list. They're at the top of the list, I just forgot to put a divider in. And cool on the gaming PC thing. I have an empty PC case in it's box under my bed, waiting till pay day so I can buy some components. Sadly I won't have everything till at least end of February, if not March. At least I still have a laptop though. Also, I am going to wait till about 11pm GMT tomorrow for anymore numbers, and then I will give out roles and start the game. Only one regular has yet to send in a number, so I will message them to see if they want in.

Jak23	33 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 22:30
	@razer: Cool, well for future reference I'm a regular. ~~I'm not sure if it's still there , but there was a killer deal on Amazon, Bioshock 1&2 and Spec Ops: The Line Steam codes for only $10 you might want to pick up ahead of time.~~ Just checked, it's not there anymore.

TrilbyWill	34 POSTED: 12 Jan 2013 23:10
	@razer: Wait a second, I'm not on the list of players. I sent in my number, right? I didn't forget to click 'send'? I remember clicking send. starts having mental breakdown What is real any more?

razer17	35 POSTED: 13 Jan 2013 01:05
	@Trilby: Oops, there was a small, err, clerical error. I've had my assistant killed for the mistake. Wait, no. I meant reassigned. My assistant has been re-assigned, not killed. Honest.
