First of all, big thanks to redwill for helping. Game would've been crappy without him.
Here are the PMs:
MWB:

MalkinIsMyHomeboy wrote:Hello MWB,
You are Spartacus, The Bringer of Rain
You're pretty much the most skilled fighter and a great leader, which means you get a special role. You will be allowed one extra vote per day phase (that will be kept secret; you will PM me this vote and any changes to it) while also having an extra move win in the arena (you have the same powers as the Champion except yours are secretive). Also, if you become the Champion nothing changes except your extra vote will become public because everyone knows you will have that extra vote.
You win with the town
Game thread will be put up soon.
Gaucho:

You are Crixus, the Undefeated Gaul
Ain't nobody as tough as you. You also have anger management issues, which means you are given one vig shot the entire game (so use it carefully).
You win with town

CBear:

MalkinIsMyHomeboy wrote:Hello CBear,
You are Gannicus, the God of the Arena
You are an awesome fighter and pretty influential. Because of this, you are the town busdriver, which means you can switch two player's positions during each night
You are an arena vet and a damn good teacher and thus, you can focus on teaching one gladiator a night which will give them an automatic win if they are chosen to fight in the arena (so it's pretty much an angel).

Crankshaft:

You are The Egyptian
You don't say much and show mercy even less. You are granted one night kill throughout the game, so use it wisely.
Your red-mates are Willie Kool, tfrizz and DocEmrick

Willie Kool:

You are Ashur, the rat
You're a terrible fighter in the arena but a pretty good spy, so I use you as a tracker. As a tracker, you can trail one person every night and see who they interact with.
Your red-mates are Crankshaft, tfrizz and DocEmrick

Doc and tfrizz

You are random baddies
You don't have any powers, but will vote with the other two baddies, Crankshaft and Willie Kool, as to who to put in the arena to fight against each other.

ulf:
Spoiler:
Hello ulf,
You are Theokoles, the Shadow of Death
You're not even a part of this ludus (you have a different owner), which is why you're ornage. You just want everybody dead and the best way to do that is by getting rid of all the role players (both red and green). You are a JOAT and have one shot of each of the following:
1. Vig kill
2. Auto save
3. Role block
4. Cop
if all the reds die, but greens are still alive, you will be given a chance to kill the greens one by one...
How did I end up in the arena? I thought I was playing a straight Angel role and was protecting myself at first by default. How did I end up in the arena on nights 2/3?
I asked dodint if he could summons himself to the arena and he never responded. My hope was he would say something to kind of trip himself up. My gut was that he was red and voted himself to fight.

the reds voted you. So you kept protecting yourself and the reds kept putting you in the arena. You were supposed to be in there night 4 but CBear bussed you and Crankshaft, but since you protected yourself that's why you ended up protecting Crankshaft.

It's in MWB's role message. Essentially he had the same powers the reigning Champion had except his were secret. But the reds sent MWB and dodint in the arena at the same time dodint protected himself, so dodint automatically won.
Ah, okay. I was looking at the chart looking for the red nominations for the arena.
Once it was kind of obvious who I was, the reds basically have a free kill every night because I couldn't lose. And they would get the angel in the arena if I protected someone else. Being exposed so early sucked, I tried to be as subtle as possible.
If Big had claimed green instead of blue (and I wasn't in a videoconference) I would have pulled back my double vote and rolled onto someone else. If I could do it over I would have fully claimed, asked the greens to claim, and then used my double vote and protection to dwindle the numbers down. But I got out of my meeting and the game was over. Derp.
1. Is dodint the worst green player ever?
2. Why did ulf do absolutely nothing until the last night?
Because I wasn't planning that being the last night. I mean put yourself in my shoes, I only have one see, kill and role block. Dodint was the only one that I knew had a role, but it seemed that ship sailed and they wouldn't keep putting him in the ring. I was waiting on my see for when I got voted out and subsequently saved to back up my forthcoming seer tole claim which never came to fruition. And kill? I was going to kill wk the next night

Now you're making me wish I hadn't switched my vote to PFIDC. This would have been good.
I felt bad I couldn't banter more. I had no idea how busy I'd be this week. This is the first time I'll be working a weekend at my new job, we're slammed.
The mods could do a series of coinflips if they wanted, and cut out the need for either side to PM their moves. It would be less engaging but it would also move quicker.
