Ugh... didn't expect to be the first to die. Though I can't say I'm surprised...

Well that didn't take long. Every time I figure there's no possible way I could get targeted early because I haven't been active, I wind up as one of the first dead players in the game.

You were their first Investigation target, I was a little bummed sinced the Nurse might be the town's most powerful role. Though we'll see, I think ultimately the mafia could lose just from straight up townie suspicions :).

Though they'll need to pick up on their activity. They didn't use any of their special powers last round, and I think they might have intended on it based on their conversations.

Ah, well, I guess that would make sense, if I was their first investigation target. Though missing with the Janitor could prove costly...

Wow, Redack can't even survive deep in the game when he's Mafia. Kind of a jerk move by the Replacement, but maybe they just figured they didn't want to be on the team opposite Redack? Or there could be something to Bandit's theory. Regardless, I do find it amusing that Redack throws his teammate under the bus and doesn't survive to reap the benefits himself. (hehe)

January 29, 2014

It's kind of funny, because the Replacement really wanted to end up on the town's side. They were debating between picking Apollo and Redack, but they picked Redack because they thought he was most likely confirmed innocent because of his throwing Hindenburg under the bus.

Really like how this turned out tbh :). But I would have laughed if Apollo got replaced instead.

And I get 0 vibes from Moonray. Like, not even one. He could be that good, I don't know, but I'm not going to cast a vote for someone unless I have some suspicion of him, even if it is just a gut feeling.

Side note, you do know that he's dead and was mafia right . . .

Yay collateral damage!

I'll have to evaluate how I feel when the next game rolls around, might sit it out and let myself recharge somewhat.

For the record, I just ghosted into Majora's account and corrected the mistake that was allowing me to post in Night 3; the Main Thread wasn't the one defined as such in the panel, so it didn't enforce the settings about who can post in it.

Correcting this meant that living players would be able to cast votes during this night round, so I advanced it to Round 4 so that an accurate record of Day 3's votes would be retained; when you start Day 4, you should be sure to reset the votes as well.

hezekiah

^ Resetting the votes would reset *all* of the votes, which is why I've been changing the ID for the main thread at nights. Didn't realize it would allow dead players to post, but I just hope people don't screw with the vote counts :).

Theoretically couldn't you just pretend night rounds are another "day". So Night 0 is Day 1, Day 1 is Day 2, Night 1 is Day 3... etc... Or wait that would probably screw up the who voted for who in previous rounds.

Moonray

...looks like the Town's got the last two Mafia pretty much pinned down -- though I can easily see them swinging wildly back and forth in the next few rounds as the Mafia lynches folks that the Town isn't expecting, but I can also easily see the Town winning this in just two more rounds.

February 3, 2014

Black Yoshi

Wow, the Town's actually doing really well this time around despite losing some of its more powerful roles early--all based on gut feelings and picking apart what people are saying. Well done, guys, well done.

I feel like if we'd taken Speed out earlier on, things would be very different.

I feel like some kind of OOG manipulation plot involving Castrael is brought in literally every single game. I kinda wish she just wouldn't respond when people are obviously trying to manipulate her. {fp}

Hey, I thought I gave it a decent attempt. Very nearly pulled it off.

My last post was a reverse psychology attempt at them thinking I was covering for a mafia Castrael. Maybe it will work and she'll get the lynching.

Bubba

I don't disagree with Redack's plan to throw someone under the bus, but I do think he sprung a bit erarly. We were going to make it out of that round with a townie being lynched. Could have delayed the game a round and potentially changed things.

February 4, 2014
Edit
Bubba

Of course, by that I meant if we the Mafia had nightkilled Speed when we'd had the chance, things would be different. Of course there was no way we were going to lynch him; he has a habit of being suspicious even as a Townie yet still innocent enough not to be mislynched. Had we nightkilled him in the first few rounds, unless the Town really came to its senses, you and I might still be in this. Speed seems to have a knack for picking out Mafia; thus far his suspicions have never been wrong unless he was the one to realize it and then change course.

February 4, 2014
Edit
Black Yoshi

Okay, wasn't expecting that. Still a pretty damned good move, would have been even better for the Town if I was still alive, given my last move. Speaking of that last move, I seriously did not think that one all the way through.

We discussed killing Shadow right before I died. Hopefully the town will be as confused by this kill as they were on the Chief kill. She still has a Ninja use for tonight.

ugggggggggh the lack of editing in Mafia makes me look like a super idiot now because I didn't agree with the idea of lynching you - your early posts about your role struck me as much more likely a diversion than anything genuine. Making it obvious you were the Replacement would just be inviting death from whichever side you didn't end up on. IT'S NOT HINDSIGHT I SWEAR IT'S IN MY THREAD YOU'LL SEE YOU'LL ALL SEE

(shame on u votin urself dead what was that about)

lol @ people getting all worked up about chief's death; it seemed fairly straightforward to me, if a little risky

Shadow seemed like an obvious right choice to me if any Ninja power remained

Meh... I dunno, I figured there was no getting out of that one, and I felt that the town had two more chances anyway so no huge loss.

If it weren't me who died, I would have went after Dooku and Flare in that order.

Bye PN, I hope you enjoy yourself in the after life

Yo Bandit. Fancy meeting you here, wtf... you would have been the last person I lynched.

February 7, 2014
Edit
Jo Nathan

Sorry Jo. I actually do regret lynching you more than any other mistake I made. I had you on my innocent list for a while, but I decided that since I hadn't been on top of things for most of the game, I should maybe follow Speed (who had been on top of things for most of the game). It wasn't just a gut thing either, you played a lot like you always do as a Townie. I should have just gone after Flare like I was arguing when we lynched Bubba, but I'm just so tired of this game and I didn't feel up to arguing it against Speed wanting to kill you.

The fact that Majora then fucked with us made it hurt all the more. :(

February 7, 2014
Edit
The Bandit

I don't want to come across like I'm blaming Speed or anything. I just read his argument, went back and looked at a few threads, and shrugged my shoulders and acknowledged/hoped he could be right. It was just laziness on my part, not like "Speed wouldn't listen to me so I just decided to go along with him" or something stupid.

But yeah. Pretty bad move and I'm sorry you lost a well deserved survival point. :(

{:P} But for real, it's cool. It's all in good fun. I'm always relieved when I'm not alive for the last round anyway.

1/10 lynch choice ffs you guys


Bandit, you and Speed were the Townies I was least suspicious of, and I find it kinda frustrating that your reasoning for voting for Lady Flare instead of Bubba (the whole poker analogy) probably worked against you because I actually liked it. They were my top suspects (Count Dooku a close third), and while I was more suspicious of him because of chiefsonny's death, your pitch for letting him live in order to get information from a different lynch made sense imo.

February 7, 2014
Edit
Pirate_Ninja

Thank you, PN. It's not a strategy that is going to be used a lot in these games but in that instance, with no real mafia power role that's very harmful, it made a lot of sense to take a chance to make your decision less stressful later on. At least to me. -shrug- I think Feral was assuming that I was advocating that we let Bubba live indefinitely, and I can see why he would be confused like that, but I definitely wanted him dead the next round regardless of what happened with Flare. If Bubba wound up innocent though, we would have had a really, really tough time the next round.

Anyways, that's a fucking odd last night kill. Whatever you want to say about the mafia, you can't say that they kept themselves inside the box this game, which I respect a lot.

February 7, 2014
Edit
The Bandit

It hasn't gotten any traction in previous games, but the "right" move here would be to No Kill, making it a 1/3 instead of 1/4.

February 7, 2014

So what's the current bet on the Replacement's identity?

February 7, 2014

Count Dooku

Flare

February 7, 2014

I would agree, hezekiah, if Feral wasn't a confirmed innocent. Choosing to No Kill now would just mean that Feral decides the gamer for everyone.

February 7, 2014

I can't believe this is working. : /

It was a really smart night kill by Flare. Good job.
