Please send all PMs to MilfeulleSakuraba. Kilgamayan's Inbox is full and I'm too lazy to delete enough of it to make room for the 15+ PMs I'm going to get every night.

The big day was finally here!
16 humans from across the world gathered together in a small room in the back of the presentation hall, having nothing else in common except for their love of the game. This is the day they had been waiting for their whole lives, the day their destinies and fates would be determined by front-office chatter and the conviction-filled voice of one David Stern, Commissioner of the NBA.
Despite all of this, however, there was a silent, terrible fear in the hearts of everyone gathered in that room. They all knew there was one thing that could ruin their moment - their destiny - forever.
Patrick O'Bryant had the courage to voice this fear, someone no one else in the room could do.
"So, heh, who do you guys think will end up going to New York?"
Oh, yes, New York. The New York Knicks. The thought sent a collective chill up 16 spines. Nothing could ruin their days, their careers, their very lives as much as finding out they were being sent to play with overpaid hacks like Stephon Marbury and Steve Francis - not to mention invariably getting booed by the hordes of fans in attendance, who showed up for no other reason than to loudly disapprove of whatever decisions Isiah Thomas made.
The ruined moment, the salary cap hell, the inevitable decade of doom and gloom...no, it was too much to bear even considering thinking about.
But they all knew. They all knew New York was extremely active in trade talks. They all knew that any of them could go at any time.
In fact, three of them knew so well that they had decided beforehand that it would not happen to them before it happened to all of the thirteen other people in that room.
David Stern's voice signaled the start of Round 1. The Toronto Raptors were on the clock, and sixteen pairs of eyes watched that clock tick down, tick away the seconds before the moment of truth revealed a glorious destiny - or a horrible, hell-on-earth fate.

It is now Night 1.
Tasselfoot (Randy Foye)
talisman (Patrick O'Bryant)
FishFishRevolution (J.J. Redick)
GuidoHunter (Saer Sene)
FoJaR (Shelden Williams)
flypie743 (Rudy Gay)
Shashakiro (Cedric Simmons)
Tps222 (Tyrus Thomas)

Kefit (Brandon Roy)
blahblah18 (Hilton Armstrong)
Omeganitros (Andrea Bargnani)
aperson (Adam Morrison)
Afrobean (Ronnie Brewer)
Wilkin (Thabo Sefolosha)
Some clarifications:
- The wolfsbane role cannot transfer the protection to anyone else, either temporarily or permanently. Also, even if they are attacked, the wolfsbane's protection will not go away.
- If there is an unsuccessful attack, you will not be told why, only who the target was. It is up to that target to tell the rest of you what's going on, if they so choose.
- Night posting is allowed, so go nuts. This means the vigilante can kill anyone at any time (though they still only get one shot) instead of only during the day.
- Wolfsbane does not protect from a vigilante kill.
- PMs will be sent out shortly (no personalizaiton this time, sorry). I will post again when they are all sent out, signalling the start of the 24-hour waiting period for lottery picks.
- If I have forgotten anything, please let me know.
