game 25 day 4 buy one get one free today only at starbucks

Posted March 7, 2014 by Speed Bike Pro

Black Yoshi slid his bicycle to a stop and chained it to the lamp post outside of the Ctrblacksburg Starbucks© store, eager to capitalize on today's deal that he had read about in a Facebook post from Lady Flare.



He barged his way through the front door and instead of seeing a shop full of eager young coffee connoisseurs, he found a crime scene. Several of Ctrblacksburg's residents and Chief MSS's finest officers were there to survey the gruesome sight before them, as it seemed that two bodies laid slain on the floor.

Black Yoshi, curious as he was, tapped on the shoulder of the nearest person to him to ask for information.

"Excuse me, what happened here? Is someone hurt?"

The figure turned around and Black Yoshi saw the face of Teddy-Son, the Hitchhiker Who Does Various Household Tasks for Food Instead of Money.

"Aye, I was just passin' through town here when I got a hankerin' for peanut butter. Not a peanut butter-flavored caffeinated beverage, just peanut butter. Turns out this ****hole of a store doesn't ****ing have any. **** this and **** you. NIPPLES."

With that, Teddy-Son walked past Black Yoshi and left the store. Just as confused as before, Black Yoshi approached the location of the two bodies on the ground and gasped when he saw their faces.

"It's a shame, really." This time, the figure talking to Black Yoshi was Bubba. "They were such nice people but it's fitting for those that were living together to die together too."

Black Yoshi recalled the words of affection shared between his two fallen friends as tears welled in his eyes...

"Ironic that [we are] roommates... I have known her longer than any other player... 10+ years..."

"Why do you get the top bunk...?"

"'Morningwood' refers to an erection a man(or any male mammal) can wake up with... It is not very comfortable, to say the least..."

Black Yoshi stooped down to grab the pink slips from their chests as everyone else said their final farewells to Feral and Lady Flare, the McDonald's Burger Flipper and Wal-Mart Retail Associate respectively.

Across the shop, The Bandit stood at the counter and waited patiently to be served. "Just because someone died doesn't give these people a reason to ignore me. I'm never coming back here again."

Time for someone to die. Someone else please make the deductive work and I'll take care of the nitty gritty.

Life's path is never straight.

I was kind of hoping that Feral was covering for the real Cop, but I didn't have much faith in that actually being the case. Unfortunately I don't think his sacrifice was really worth it. If we mislynch today, our only chance is if the Drunk manages to block the mafia's night kill. So, no matter where this discussion goes, we need to take the full 72 hours. No cutting it short like last round.

On that note, I do think it's somewhat suspicious for any Townie to vote to end the round like what happened on Day 3. Both Hidenburg and Bubba opted to vote for hezekiah rather than let the round linger as Apollo suggested, and I really can't see any benefit to the Town in doing that. The longer the round lasts, the more things mafia members have to say in order to avoid inactivity, and the more likely they're going to slip up. I just do not understand why a Townie would vote for hezekiah after multiple people said they wanted to discuss our plans after hezekiah. Maybe you guys can enlighten me into what you were thinking.

The Bandit

The Facebook chat made me giggle a lot. A+ but RIP Lady Flare and Feral (also A+ white lancer and Jo Nathan death RIP (cry)(cry))

I feel like people are maybe hesitant to say anything, which is part of the reason I didn't (I like having something to go on before I post unless I'm into hyper gear or something). But:

I just do not understand why a Townie would vote for hezekiah after multiple people said they wanted to discuss our plans after hezekiah. Maybe you guys can enlighten me into what you were thinking.


My thoughts as well. I asked/suggested more than once that people hold their votes so we could have discussion, but why would a non-Mafia want to NOT delay the round, given the chance? It... really doesn't make any sense, because it was obvious we would have lynched hezekiah anyways, and I doubt if he even contributed that we would have changed our minds. It would have also given Lady Flare and Feral more time to contribute, so now we're down two town members when we could have had more innocent voices contributing, which I pretty exasperatedly tried to get across. Plus, players could have assumed there would likely be two deaths, since Feral role-revealed and gave the Assassin a nice hit target.

Not extending the round was bad for the town and I am disappoint (partially because I <b3 what Lady Flare usually has to say because GEEZ I looked through her threads from last game [Replacement/Mafia] and she REALLY has it together and could have really helped us in discussion).

tl;dr I second the question The Bandit posed.

Yo estoy muy triste que hezekiah está muerto porque yo quise tres tacos con queso y un Baja Blast ayer... ?quién me da tacos ahora???? (cry)(cry)(cry)

March 8, 2014
Apollo Justice

Uh, so...You're very sad that Hezy is dead because you wanted three tacos with cheese and a Baja Blast yesterday...who'll get you your tacos now???

¿Tú hablás español, Apollo?

Back on topic: Feral did mention in his dying breath that he was suspicious of Bubba; must've gotten an innocent verdict but got that vibe off of him. I'll have to read into previous rounds to be sure, but it's definitely something to look at.

March 8, 2014
Black Yoshi

Personally, I wanted the round to end because Apollo said she wanted it to last longer, but that's just me. Now that you mention this, though, combined with Feral's accusation, I think it's time for Bubba to take a dirt nap. In HELL.

Life's path is never straight.

cutting Day 3 short does seem like it benefits the mafia more than the town, I agree. My take on the last couple of voters:

I'm wary of Bubba, given the way the last two days ended. He didn't take a stand on the Day 2 tie between Feral and Hindenburg, but came by after the fact calling it "mafia-on-Feral action" like he wanted to distance himself from the possibility of Feral having being lynched. Day 3 brought us hard evidence and some requests for discussion before a lynch, but he cast the final vote that cut short any chance for conversation. The vote result was pretty much a foregone conclusion, but ending the round early still knowingly stifles people who hadn't gotten to speak their minds.

As for Hindenburg, I still don't feel like his role in the Day 2 vote drama says a lot for his guilt or innocence because he simply tied the vote in self-defense - a move that makes sense for either side. Casting one of the late votes that ended Day 3 early is something I find suspicious, but his excuse above does sound like something he'd do. Makes it a believable cover if he's mafia, but he speaks his mind freely enough that I have a hard time being sure.

¡Sí, señorita! Yo tuve dos semestres de español en el año pasado en Universidad. Me profesor fue alucinante; yo aprendí mucho.

Ahem...having skimmed over the previous days' threads, a few things do stand out to me with Bubba's behavior, mostly the fact that all of his responses thus far have been one-liners. Last game he was Mafia and all of his posts had at least some depth to them; makes me think he might be innocent this time around.

March 9, 2014
Black Yoshi

Since we're getting down to the end, it's about time I start making my own contributions.

So far, there really hasn't been a lot to go on in terms of discussion, and it seems like going after Bubba might be the only lead we have so far, given that there isn't much of a defense in his favor since he hasn't posted.

¡Qué maravilloso! Me encanta la idioma de español - es hermosa y fluida. Yo tomé tres semestres de español en la universidad, y mucho en la escuela secundaria. Mis concentraciones en escuela ahora son ciencias políticas y relaciones internationales - necesito especializarme en algo sector de relaciones internationales (puede ser religión, geografía, sociología, un idioma, o cualquier cosa), y mi specialización es Español. La última clase que necesito tomar (en el próximo semestre) es literatura española.

You know, I'm really starting to wonder how you afford to bring me Starbucks every morning........

March 9, 2014

I simply go by there every morning... I do love me some coffee..

Plus, I don't bring.. I deliver.

March 9, 2014

I mean I love me some coffee too, but I think all your clothes having Starbucks logos on them is taking brand loyalty a bit too far

I take a lot of pride in my Starfox Starbucks shirt...

Less than 24 hours. Casting a vote and seeing what happens. Maybe he'll show up if he's near death.

Let's see if I got this right:

How marvelous! I find speaking Spanish charming; it’s beautiful and fluidic. I took three semesters of Spanish in college, and a lot in high school. My concentrations in college are political science and international relations; it’s necessary to specialize in some sector of IR (can be religion, geography, sociology, speech, or anything), and my specialization is Spanish. The last class I have to take (next semester) is Spanish Literature.


So...ahem...anyway, Feral may or may not have been right about Bubba, but at this point in the game, a no-kill will cost us the game. Dear God, I hope I'm not as badly wrong as I usually am in these games...

March 10, 2014
Black Yoshi



I still feel like this is our safest bet

March 10, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

Sorry for the inactivity. Shocker, but I'm not mafia. As for why I ended the round the last time, I didn't even read the thread, so I had no clue that my vote was the the deciding vote or that players had requested more time. I just scrolled through, saw the Feral reveal, and voted.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

In order to offer something as an alternative, I think the fact that there has been no other discussion for the possibility of another lynching target adds a shred of credence to my innocence. Mafia is a brutal game, but would my mafia partner be that brutal as to not try any attempt, especially when it's down to the wire as in this situation?

Are you all really going to kill me on a feral hunch? I'll be checking on my phone throughout the day. I know not much time remains, but that is my own doing.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Thought about this for a solid hour. It's risky since if he's not mafia he would be the one that would most likely be on my side,. Gotta offer someone up to get my innocent self off the block.

Back on topic: Feral did mention in his dying breath that he was suspicious of Bubba; must've gotten an innocent verdict but got that vibe off of him. I'll have to read into previous rounds to be sure, but it's definitely something to look at.

Not sure what he is trying to pull with the first statment. Feral going with a gut feeling even if he got an innocent verdict on me would be defying stattistics, especially since my low activity should give him nothing to hang his gut on. Really odd move.

Monitoring, so it's up for change.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

I'm sorry, who did you just vote for?



March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Black Yoshi.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

TAKE IT BACK RIGHT NOW. DON'T YOU GO NEAR HIM. DON'T YOU TOUCH HIM. I'D BE IN MY RIGHT MIND TO GIVE YOUR BOOTY A KICK IF YOU EVEN TRY TO HURT HIM.

Ahem.. I meant to say.. please reconsider (look)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Who would you want to vote for then? I'm definitely not mafia, so us voting for anyone else would decrease the chances of a lynching a mafia.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

It depends, was Black Yoshi a vote just to get the vote off of you, or was it legitimate? Regardless, your innocence or guilt will be very telling, and if you're innocent, lynching you will very likely cost us the game, unless the Waffle House Waiter blocks the kill.

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Thus more people should come now plz

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

It was both. Black Yoshi is definitely my leading suspect. Read his replies and it looks like he is playing the classic "cover my mafia tracks" role. I'd prefer to keep my vote on him, but I'm up for switching, seeing as my life is on the line.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

And for the record, I don't think you're mafia. Any mafia reading this isn't going to post, they want the round to go off quietly into the middle of the afternoon with a silhouette of me swinging in the background.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Well, that's part of the reason I haven't voted for you either - I'm not convinced of your guilt because your defense is very typical innocent-Bubba defense. I'm also not convinced of your innocence either, though (cry)

What about Hindenburg? I'm willing to bet money Black Yoshi is innocent, so I'm not for that.

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Also sorry bc I'm on my phone at round end (ashamed)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

(cry)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

I'm fine with Hindenburg going down. We just need more players to check in regardless.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Round is over, so oh well. My bad for being inactive.

Mafia is having a good laugh at Feral right now.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Host note: The round would normally have ended 2 minutes ago but I'm extending the deadline to 3:27 PM EST to account for daylight savings time.

IF WE PULL THIS OFF, LEGENDS WILL SPEAK OF THIS.

March 10, 2014

Black Yoshi was on 1 minute ago, The Bandit 9 minutes ago according to the people tab. So get in here or risk being accused of being mafia.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

You can't use the People tab, Bubba... (cry)(cry)(cry)(cry)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

So it should be turned off then. When did that become a rule?

March 10, 2014
Bubba

It became a rule after Game 18, when LLight abused it and accused me/Shadowwalked/Speed/Kyon of being Mafia on Day 1 based on our clicks (aka game where you were MVP)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Using the Activities tab (or any other method of determining someone's activity around the site aside from simple recent posts they've made) is strictly prohibited. If you are discovered to be using this method for an advantage in the game, you will be penalized.


(fedup)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

I remember it was used, but I never remember it becoming an official rule?

Pirate Ninja is online now too.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Well I guess I'm dead now then. Bandit was online about 13 minutes or so ago. PN and Yoshi are refreshing now as we speak.

At least I hope I help.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Similarly to how you shouldn't use listening to sounds during night rounds in IRL games of Mafia as evidence, you're not supposed to use the Users tab as evidence in GTX0 Mafia. It's more of a rule of thumb, not necessarily anything that will get you banned from games. Just a heads up for future reference. (look)

March 10, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

So I'm still alive right now?

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Nevermind, it's an actual rule too.

March 10, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Well, obviously not all 3 of them are Mafia - so I don't think the Users tab is generally the most helpful in this case even though it was brought up, and I'm not sure whether or not I should comment on it, but I don't find it suspicious if only because they all usually make long, thought-out replies and don't post sporadically like I/we do anyways. They're also pretty active off of Mafia as it is.

Plus, I'm still feelin' for Hindyburger.

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Oh no, they know the round was ending now. Mafia is definitely in there. The other needs to get in here now and help us flip the votes.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Regardless, I think we should ignore the users tab and active users or whatever, just because it feels wrong to bring that into the game and also, 3 power roles are still alive so they could be checking their threads or something or posting in there... I just really don't think we should be taking it into consideration - I would like it if anyone who is seeing this to contribute, it's not necessary (especially if one really is convinced of Bubba's guilt), but would be helpful {boo}

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

Oh I agree, it definitely is a cheap trick. I apologise for breaking the rules. I wouldn't have done it had I known it was an official rule, especially after what I did with the screenshot in the last game.

March 10, 2014
Bubba

Well, we have about 30 minutes, and it's just you and I. Even with our votes combined, we can't stop your kill. (fedup)

March 10, 2014
Apollo Justice

{boo}

March 10, 2014

OH NO

March 10, 2014

March 10, 2014
