Mafia

Moderated by: Speed Bike Pro

game 27 mafia thread

Posted June 22, 2014 by MajorasMask9

Hey there everyone. This is the mafia and today our special guests are:

Speed Bike Pro - Godfather
Jo Nathan - Public Killer
Bubba - Hooker
EvilGuy0613 - Mafioso
SDYoshi - Mafioso

Role descriptions are stated in the main thread, but a brief summary:

Godfather appears innocent in cop results (unless targeted by the Insane Cop!)

Public Killer can choose to kill anyone at any point in any round once. The kill will be made regardless of protection status, but your identity will be revealed to the town.

Hooker can roleblock a player at night. Cannot target the same person two nights in a row.

Mafiosos exist.

Keep in mind that one player in the town is a Turncoat. If you target them for a kill, they will become mafia.

Good luck!

{boo}

That's not ghosts, it's my hooker sheet. Notice the two holes.

June 22, 2014
Bubba

Can I not exist? Because that would be nice.
I'd love to be unlynchable.

June 22, 2014
SDYoshi

Just a reminder, since I never mentioned it in this thread, that you guys are allowed to make a kill tonight :D.

June 22, 2014

So, who do you gents want to murder? As your commanding officer and superior, I will entertain all possibilities.

June 22, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

I was thinking Dooku or lancer except the Doctor might be anticipating that.

So now I'm kinda leaning toward Pirate_Ninja although I would miss his entertaining posts... :(

June 22, 2014
Jo Nathan

I'm leaning towards Hindy and EvilGuy0613 atm. Hindenburg because people would probably be like "omg whoever is in the mafia must be very stern and intolerant of hindenburg's antics" (aka not me) and EvilGuy because he's evil.

June 22, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Let me be the murderer!

June 22, 2014
EvilGuy0613

I'd be cool with PN. A great player who never seems to draw mafia suspicion.

June 23, 2014
Bubba

Hooker Castrael.

June 23, 2014
Bubba

I like the reasoning behind killing Hindenburg. Maybe we choose between Pirate and Hindenburg this round and kill the other next round? EvilGuy is one of us so I don't know if I'd make killing him a priority right now.

June 23, 2014
Jo Nathan

Going to need a solid kill decision before 9pm EDT (roughly 4 hours from now)

June 23, 2014
MajorasMask9

I vote for Hindy.

June 23, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Hindy it is.

June 24, 2014
Bubba

We got 'em, boys. GG. We can pack it up now.

June 24, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

You guys can now pick another player to kill :).

If Jo Nathan would like, he can also use his power to make a kill at any time he likes.

Bubba can hooker someone.

June 27, 2014
MajorasMask9

I want Lightvayne to either die or get hookered.

June 27, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

I vote to kill Pirate_Ninja.

As always, though, I'm open to changing my vote pending further discussion.

Also Speed, your vote is the tie breaker so we don't have to worry about not killing anyone in case everyone decides to not check back here.

June 27, 2014
Jo Nathan

Kill PN. Hooker Lightvayne.

WE'RE ON A ROLL GUYS

June 27, 2014
Bubba

KILL PN HOOKER LIGHTVAYNE MY VOTE IS FINAL

June 27, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Aw shucks if PN turns out to be a poor choice I'll feel like it's all my fault guys (duck)

June 28, 2014
Jo Nathan

During the night, you go to Pirate_Ninja's house to mercilessly kill him. "Wait!" he shouts, revealing his 100% authentic Turncoat Badge! You refrain from killing Pirate_Ninja, who becomes the newest Mafioso in the mafia!

June 28, 2014
MajorasMask9

Well that couldn't have worked out better if I had planned it that way.

Hi Pirate (hug)

June 28, 2014
Jo Nathan

Come give papa a hug, little boy... I've got candy, eheheh...

June 28, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 




so...guess this is that awkward period where I settle in and act like you weren't trying to murder me a little while ago...haha...

June 28, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

Sweet, the anime images are on our side now.

June 28, 2014
Bubba

It just occurred to me that if I survive to the end, that puts the town at a mis-lynch and lose situation one round earlier than normal.

June 29, 2014
Jo Nathan

I'm getting a hunch that Lightvayne is more than a Townie and I want him to DIE

July 1, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

You guys can now choose to kill someone new :).

Bubba can do stuff with another player.

Jo Nathan can, as usual, kill anyone at any point in time, at the cost of being revealed.

July 1, 2014
MajorasMask9

gdi sdy...

also, wary of hezekiah

also also, bbl possibly with more meaningful words

July 1, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

I vote for Lightvayne

July 1, 2014
Jo Nathan

if the cops are thinking on their feet, they can confirm (or already have confirmed) their sanity by this point

(so gosh a hooking would be handy :\ )

on that note, o noble host, is anyone notified if the psychiatrist cures an insane person?

July 2, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

If Bubba doesn't select a hook target by the round's deadline, can I speak on his behalf as the grandpappy and choose who he hooks?

July 2, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Yes you may!!

July 2, 2014
MajorasMask9

And no, if someone is cured of their insanity, nobody is notified ever.

July 2, 2014
MajorasMask9

Sorry, lost track of time as I made dinner and I think it's past the deadline but I'll do this anyway and say kill Lightvayne and hooker Black Yoshi

July 2, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

It's fine :). I was a bit busy myself and I answered your question like 10 minutes before the actual deadline. I'll count that as Bubba's hooker target/your kill vote.

July 2, 2014
MajorasMask9

Frick.

July 2, 2014
Bubba

i suck at this LOL

July 2, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

I don't think you're gonna be lasting much longer, Jo ol' buddy...

If you start accumulating a bunch of votes, might as well go out with a bang and kill someone so that your death isn't a total waste.

I'll be trying to think of ways we can play around this but I'm gonna be working a bunch these next few days and will post when I can.

July 3, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

police cop done stepped on a land mine~

reminder that in addition to the scenarios he mentioned, you could be the Suspect (who IIRC appears Townie to self but comes up guilty when checked)

more likely I think people will take a chance on it and lynch you, but you can still give him the ol' "ok but I'm takin u with me LOL" by killing him once your fate is clear but not carried out

also sdyoshi pls post :c

July 3, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

I'm taking lancer with me guys.

@Majora: count that as my official decision please.

July 3, 2014
Jo Nathan

Alright, will update momentarily when I'm at the computer :)

July 3, 2014
MajorasMask9

ty you are most wonderful

July 3, 2014
Jo Nathan

(:$)

July 3, 2014
MajorasMask9

Guys, I love you all. I just wanted to get that out there before I shuffle off this mortal coil.

July 3, 2014
Jo Nathan

Your sacrifice will not be forgotten, soldier. REST IN PIZZA

July 3, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

A true mafia, that Joe Nathan. May your sacrifice fuel us to victory.

July 3, 2014
Bubba

Well....technically town's right back where they started with the ratio.

July 4, 2014
EvilGuy0613

You guys can pick a kill/hooker target now! Sorry about SDY :(.

July 5, 2014
MajorasMask9

Gotta be up in 4 hours to work the subsequent 18 hours so I'll probably be preoccupied irl this entire night round. I pass all godfatherly decisions on to PN for the time being.

July 5, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

then I guess it's a good thing I'm back home now and able to play normally :J

I've been following the game while away, though doing it on mobile detracts from the usual ease/convenience, so I'm not fully steeped in fine mafia juices atm...


so, to recap the remaining verdicts white lancer shared:

Count Dooku - Innocent
Helius - Innocent
ignoring the possibility of the Poltergeist messing with results (it's possible, though unlikely), both the Godfather and Suspect are still alive to give irregular results. It'd be nice to avoid the latter, since it gives three of us a chance of avoiding a lynch even if checked and exposed...and the two people he checked are confirmed to not be the Suspect (unless lancer started out insane and was cured).


also worth considering: the Psychiatrist role is Compulsive, so if they happen to miss a night round they'll be silenced the following day. Possibly unrelated, but Apollo didn't post at all in the last day thread. Maybe not by choice?

on that note, HEEEEEEEEEEY MAJORA: if the Hooker roleblocks the Psychiatrist, will that silence them as if they had failed to choose a target? It's not the most practical intentional use of Bubba's talents, but it is something we could watch for.


that said, right now I would lean most strongly toward Count Dooku, hezekiah, or Apollo Justice tonight. Thoughts?

July 5, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

If you were to roleblock the Psychiatrist, they would indeed be silenced :).

July 5, 2014
MajorasMask9

neither Castrael (Night 1) nor Black Yoshi (Night 3) were silenced after their visits, so that should rule them out as Psychiatrist possibilities (unless Poltergeist I guess but f******** that guy). Not that I'm particularly concerned with who the Psychiatrist is, but just in case it's useful info at some point.

July 6, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

I wouldn't mind killing Apollo. I've always liked killing inactive/quiet players due to the confusion that occurs when the big talkers remain. Of course, knowing Apollo, she'll turn up soon with a wall of text.

As far as hookering goes, keep choosing at random to weed out the psychiatrist? Or you could look at it mathematically and keep targeting players who you know are not the psychiatrist, meaning they have a better chance of being the other cop.

July 6, 2014
Bubba

Off to bed for the night. I'm guessing Majora's plan to extend the night time frame is still alive.

July 6, 2014
Bubba

when she's actively contributing, she tends to be good at changing minds as well. And right now there seem to mostly be false leads floating around, so it might be good to try and maintain that.


option 3 on hookering imo would be to target our kill in case we hit upon a self-protecting Doctor. With no declared power roles like Cop A to protect and no restrictions on consecutive visits, I think the Doctor is likely to be self-serving for now. That said, it's probably a waste unless we do happen to target the Doctor (by random chance still not all that likely), but it is an option. That said, my gut points to hezekiah for reasons I can't quite articulate - if he's not the kill target and you don't feel strongly about spending the night with someone else, that is.


I'd like to let the night round go on as offered for the sake of hearing from the others, but in case we hit upon a deadline for decision-making, I'll throw my personal two cents in for now as kill Apollo, hook hezekiah.

July 6, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

Sorry I haven't been contributing much at all. I'm still interested in playing it's just that my cousin has literally been over my house all this week for 4th of July and I haven't had time to do anything computer related.

Also will probably be busy tomorrow as well but I'll just add to the conversation by saying I'm also on board with Apollo getting killed for most of the reasons stated already. It's probably better if she get's taken out before she can do anything useful.

July 6, 2014
EvilGuy0613

You heard the acting Godfather, kill Apollo, hook hezekiah.

July 6, 2014
Bubba

Just want to clarify, in case it seems like an error, that I did indeed count your kill/hooker targets as Apollo and hezekiah respectively.

July 6, 2014
MajorasMask9

soooooo we probably should've gone with Plan A

July 6, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

WADDUP MY FRIENDS I'M BACK FROM WORK HOW IS EVERYTHING GOING LOL

July 6, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Yeah this isn't looking so well.

July 7, 2014
EvilGuy0613

apologies if it seems like I'm a bit detached from the game (it's because I am, largely thanks to prepping the new Adventure game), but this here is a team and I do care even though I was drafted against my will into a criminal syndicate SOMEONE HELP PLEASE

July 8, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

My apologies as well. I've been receiving roughly twice my irl workload which only leaves me with a small handful of hours for free time before bed which does not mesh well with my usual Mafia playstyle of spending an entire afternoon reading through previous rounds and throwing together a really overblown conspiracy for why someone is guilty. I'm probably gonna die because "speed isn't acting normal durrr" or "yeah why is he so quiet hnnnn" or "hello i'm chiefsonny" but the reason for all that isn't because I'm mafia.

but whatever LOL

July 8, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

I know, and I was torn on whether to actually say something about that and risk getting caught up in "hey look this guy was obviously trying to save the Godfather he's probably mafia" because I know you really have been busy (sad)


And I'm a little surprised that after not posting since Day2 and now when the Mafia are down to 3, you post a wall of text.
actually I think the game where I was the Impulsive Arsonist would be an example of how I tend to play that way regardless of affiliation. The one time I remember being vocal early on, I was almost mislynched for it (amusingly enough, I believe chief was the sole remaining mafia member that time).

...also, y'know, that whole thing where I was on vacation for a week with limited internet access, and upon returning focused on getting Adventure started because nobody else can do that (numerous pages of notes and planning that is only partially visible...all that text doesn't write itself, y'know)

I'd be mildly annoyed at this point if I had ever actually felt like I had a good chance of winning.

July 8, 2014
Pirate_Ninja

You guys can now vote to kill someone :).

July 9, 2014
MajorasMask9

can I really though


sooooooo I lack the time, motivation, and positive state of mind to do the usual sort of analysis here

  • Count Dooku would be the obvious choice for us to kill, and thus the obvious choice for the Doctor to protect. Obvious enough that they might assume we won't try him, and thus an A+ bluff call? Who cares knows.

  • Roxas's role is useless, but he's basically a confirmed innocent so he would be a "safe" choice.

  • chiefsonny's innocence is technically in question (not that anyone seemed particularly interested in having that pointed out), but targeting the person who is openly on our case could throw people off.




  • July 9, 2014
    Pirate_Ninja

    I know the feeling.....

    I would go with chief but I have a feeling the doctor might try and protect him. He seems to be the one leading the town at the moment and certainly not doing a bad job.

    July 10, 2014
    EvilGuy0613

    eh, it's not like we'd be able to play it safe and come out ahead, so I wouldn't mind either way

    there's always the classic method of decision-making:

    July 10, 2014
    Pirate_Ninja

    ok sure why not let's pay ol' chiefy a visit



    July 10, 2014
    Pirate_Ninja

    Last man standing.

    Well I guess there isn't really much else to do but go out with a bang......or try to at least.
