Serial Killer Game

[thelilbear]

Most of you don't know this, but there is a serial killer out there, one who only kills people that post in this thread. He's a very particular serial killer, however, and he only kills people who post in a certain way. Will you live or die? There's only one way to find out!

Rules:
Post something and wait. There is a rule that determines if the serial killer will kill you or pass over you. If you are killed, you must wait 24 hours before posting again.

The object is to figure out, through trial and error, what the rule is.

You can discuss what the rule might be by putting that part of your post in italics. HOWEVER, your post must also say something else that is subject to the serial killer's rule.
Meaning, blank posts and posts with only italics do not count as game posts, and you will automatically be killed and banned from posting for 48 hours.

The serial killer (who would like you to know his name is Bob) will be kind this first time out, so the rule shouldn't be too hard to figure out. We'll see how this goes and maybe do it again!

You can post as many times as you like until Bob does his slicing and dicing, but once you are dead, you stay dead (for 24 hours!)

Note: Changed time restriction to 24 hours, will make it longer if needed

[Wind]

This sounds fun. So I'll go first?

[thelilbear]

Bob says, "And you will die first!" and chops off Wind's head with a swing of an ax!

[Dyl]

Bob killed Wind .

[Uncle Xyzzy]

Hey, you're a mafiascum member?

Anyway, I'm hoping the serial killer likes red meat... because that's what he'll be when I'm done with him! BWA HA HA!

[Pixa]

I wonder if Dyl dies, hmm...

[Mongrel]

I am quite confused. However, this looks fun!

While Dyl is frowning over Wind's body, Bob creeps up and carves another frown... with his knife, in Dyl's neck!

Bob pulls a stalk of broccoli out his his pocket and stabs Uncle Xyzzy with it. "I'm a vegetarian!"

Bob spots Pixa across the room. "I'll give you something to wonder about! Why did I stab this pencil in your ear?"

I actually just found mafiascum when miyu mentioned it here. I didn't join, but I was looking through their games.

ETA: Moongewl tried to sneak in while Bob was busy killing the others, but he threw a giant ninja star that sliced Moongewl in half!

I think the rule is if you talk, you're dead

hi killer how ya doing

[Susannahmio]

I think the rule is having a period somewhere in the post

I'll find you scum

[Typhoon]

I think the rule is having a letter 'o' in the post.

Scum! Mafia! Whee!

[Rox]

I rule.

[mjrinella]

I think the rule is that if you don't use italics in your post you die. Also, to test a theory:

lts c f ths hs nythng 2 d wth vwls/pncttn

[Laryxle]

I think the rule is that you can have no punctuation in your posts

hello i are laryxle

[thelilbear]

Uh, oh, Bob has some work to do!

Bob takes a swipe at LovioNeko, but the knife flies out of his hand and he misses!

Angered, he pulls out his gun and takes a shot at Susannahmio, but the bullet flies wide!

Luckily, it hits Typhoon!

Feeling better after getting a hit, Bob does a backflip over Roxas_X and snaps his neck!

But when Bob straightens up, he realizes Mjrinella and Laryxle have surrounded him! They quickly run around him with a rope and the serial killer is fit to be tied!

Both Mjrinella & Laryxle have guessed the rule, don't use punctuation!

New Round starting!

Mjrinella & Laryxle congratulated themselves on a job well done! They went home to celebrate while the police delivered Bob the insane asylum. But when they opened the door of the police van, Bob was gone! Uh-oh!

A new rule is now in effect. All players previously dead have been brought back to life, and may play again!

(I'm going to bed soon and won't be on again until tomorrow, so I'll catch up on the posts in the morning!)
