I greet you brother, Zanic. Sorry we couldn't last longer in the game.

Also, in hopes that my comrades follow through with the plan I originated, welcome to you too, MM9.

Lastly, I welcome any and all victims, if any, of the Orange Agent.

Why hello there, Roxas. This seems fairly familiar. ;)

...and gee, thanks, hezy, for sending me that IM informing me that the day round was up. And here I thought that was confirmation that I'd lived through the night, because you wouldn't bother to send me that if I wasn't actually going to be able to participate in the day round, would you? :P

Roxas...my evil counterpart. Nice to lynch you.

Lancer, you never last long in this game haha.

I find it funny that it is you two who joined me, though I saw Zanic coming from a country mile away.

At least he told you the next round started, he messaged me "rip you." {:P}

Yeah yeah. I had a feeling lancer was going to get lynched considering all the accusations he threw around.

Heh, I thought it funny that Zanic died because of his in-game brother, on the same night his real-life brother kicked the bucket.

And yeah, Zanic, at this point I'm just taking it as a compliment. I COULD have survived last game, but... ;)

I just realized you were one of two people that I chose to protect from lynching last night Lancer. What role were you? A normal townie?

August 17, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Yep, vanilla Townie.

August 17, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Well, things aren't looking good for Black Yoshi.

I'm liking Yeano's aggressiveness in his first game playing. Pretty awesome, if ya ask me. {8D}

August 17, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

I feel like mafia are Redack, Xhin, possibly FAW, and maybe Yeano.

August 17, 2012
Edit
Zanic

I'm fairly confident Redack isn't Mafia. Xhin is a possibility and he's certainly been acting strange this round, and I found Yeano fishy while I was in the game and that impression hasn't really changed.

I'm not sure about FAW or the other players--haven't been paying THAT close of attention after my death last night.

August 17, 2012
Edit
white lancer

If both Yeano and Xhin are Mafia, their current strategy makes a lot of sense and is potentially highly effective: they're taking command of the game and trying to convince other players to follow their lead. Taking me out would make sense because it's one less 'talker' to contend with, and if that's the case I would expect MM9 to bite the dust tonight and probably Redack fairly soon.

August 17, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Redack said the same thing to me over AIM, that he wasn't expecting to last very long.

I'd really like to know what they were thinking when picking you over MM9 to kill last night, though.

I really hope Xhin and MM9 continue to poke at one another, especially with Xhin's closing shot in 1345239326. This shall make for bloodshed tonight. (hehe)

August 17, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

And the plot thickens. With Yoshi revealing as the Orange Agent, I wonder if suspicion will be redirected towards the ones pushing so hard for his demise (Yeano, Xhin, Majora)?

August 18, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Now I'm not too sure what to make of this situation. If Yoshi is the OA, then the town loses their most valuable role. With his back in the corner, I'd like to see if he can get out of it.

August 18, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

-_- The Town continuing to vote for Yoshi even after he's revealed makes no sense. If there's no counter-claim there's a very good chance that he's telling the truth (a 100% chance from our perspective, since we know the OA is still alive).

This is one of those scenarios I was warning against when I was in the game--people put waaaay too much stock in their own readings of people and then they completely screw up, like they're about to do here. I'm pretty sure some of it is being driven by the Mafia but the Town should know better than to put gut instinct above probable fact. Yoshi did the right thing by claiming his role and the Town is just being completely foolish.

August 18, 2012
Edit
white lancer

I completely agree. Lynching him now is a very stupid thing to do.

August 18, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Stupid like a fox, apparently. Welcome to death, Yoshi.

August 18, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Idiot, idiot, idiot me. Why'd I have to open my big fat mouth?

On another note, I tried logging onto the Mafia game a few minutes ago and it gave me a blank white screen bearing the words "Warning: Script temporarily blocked" or something to that effect. Perhaps you could ask Xhin what the hell happened, or was that a result of my death (which I've never experienced in a Mafia game before, at least not since the Dead Thread was introduced)?

August 18, 2012
Edit
Black Yoshi

I was having the same problems.


And see, this is EXACTLY why I had MM9 at Public Enemy #1 for us.

Oh well, y'all did get rid of lancer who was #3.

August 18, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Site was running slow, so he had me block some scripts so he could get in to reboot it. Clearly that didn't fix all the problems.

August 18, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Oh wow. That was strange. Who the hell is the orange agent then? And why didn't they come forward?!

August 18, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Just because it works out doesn't mean it was the best move available. Their 'read' on Yoshi made him suspicious but was far from conclusive, and the Orange Agent claim should have counter-balanced that. Actually, I would have played it pretty much the same way Majora did--asked the real Orange Agent to attack Yoshi during the night instead of counter-claiming. That way you aren't risking lynching the real Orange Agent AND it would have been especially beneficial if Yoshi had been a non-Thug Mafia member. If Yoshi were lying a different Mafia member (the Thug) would die in his place and the Town would get two Mafia for the price of one. As it happened it wound up not mattering, but there was no reason to believe that Yoshi was the Thug so from the Town's perspective there was a potential opportunity there.

I understand the decision a bit better if some of them (Redack, for instance) were in contact with the real Orange Agent via messenger, but I still think there was a better option.

August 18, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Makes sense... but that doesn't mean I like it. :S

Now I'm guessing that MM9 surely will be joining us after this night, lest he be the Doctor and didn't save himself Night One.

August 18, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

And I suspect Yeano may be joining us not long afterward -- even as a Mafia member, I thought his arguments were a bit outlandish, and so did half the Town, so much so that some of them voted for Yeano rather than me.

Ahh, feels so much better now all that pressure's off me. Now I can concentrate on readying myself mentally for the coming semester...

August 18, 2012
Edit
Black Yoshi

We'll see. Yeano might have bought himself some time by throwing you under the bus and we can't be certain if the Town will continue to pursue Majora's line of questioning if Majora dies.

August 18, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Next day shall be interesting. I honestly think they may go after FAW in Day Three, if Yeano doesn't bring any more attention to himself as possible Mafia.

August 19, 2012

`Roxas`

That night was interesting, too. I can talk more about it if you want, or keep the dead thread spoiler-free. Up to you guys.

STILL WONDERING WHY MM9 IS STILL ALIVE!

Regardless, welcome, chief, to the dead thread.

The coffee may be shitty, but it's drinkable.

August 19, 2012

`Roxas`

Aww. Chief joins us. I find it odd that the night I died, I chose to protect the next two mafia kills from lynching. Didn't help though.

August 19, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Oh, that's wonderful, ain't it?

I knew I should have saved myself on Night 0, but I originally did it on Yeano thinking that he'd be the Good Twin, only to rescind my decision later on in the round.

August 19, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Haha. Yeah.Neither of us even got to really use our powers.

August 19, 2012
Edit
Zanic

I told them they'd be making a mistake by lynching me. They should have stuck with the idea of saving a kill on you until things got desperate.

August 19, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

I have to wonder just how random this game is.

I'm a person that gambles a lot (go to casinos 4-5 times a month, play on line poker every day) and 75% odds are pretty damn good odds.

So the first time I decided to use the power, I end up the only one dead. What happened to the person I picked to kill. Of all nights he wasn't home it was this night.

I'm now convinced there is no random actions in the game. The host does what he thinks he would like to see.

August 19, 2012
Edit
chiefsonny
 

Seems like luck just wasn't on your side, chief. Considering your body was hidden, I'd say the Mafia was gunning after you.

August 19, 2012

That night was interesting, too. I can talk more about it if you want,


Please Do.

August 19, 2012
Edit
chiefsonny
 

Yeah, that's not accurate. I wanted you to get your kill, but it wasn't to be...

The Drug Dealer targeted the first mafioso to vote to kill you, so that kill got resolved before yours. Since you were already dead, you weren't able to set the fire.

August 19, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Here's the night action priority again:
1. Drug Dealer choice
2. Gambler guess
3. Orange Agent kill(s)
4. Mafia kill
5. Thug save
6. Doctor save
7. Janitor hide(s)
8. Twins protection(s)

1. Drug Dealer gave 1st mafia voter a stimulant.
1.5. Mafia kill of chief.
2. Gambler guess.
3. Orange Agent is dead, can't make kill.
4. Mafia kill moved up.
5. Thug is dead.
6. Doctor save, irrelevant.
7. Janitor hides, conceals chiefsonny's body.
8. Twins are dead.

Again, sorry for going off on the deep end.

Wait. The Orange Agent is dead? Does that mean Lancer was the OA? Because he said he was a normal townie.

I don't know what role lancer was but he was not the Orange Agent.

It certainly would've had hilarious ramifications, if that does anything to answer your question.

And don't worry about your previous anger, I know that things may incorrectly appear to be bullshit based on incomplete information.


Interesting how the town's been 2 for 2 on lynching mafia members. Can they keep it up?

August 19, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Hell no they can't keep it up. If only they followed suit with lancer on Day One.

August 19, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

In Hez's order post, under number 3, he has Orange Agent is dead. Cannot make the kill.

August 19, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Last nights actions according to hezy.

1. Drug Dealer gave 1st mafia voter a stimulant.
1.5. Mafia kill of chief.
2. Gambler guess.
3. Orange Agent is dead, can't make kill.
4. Mafia kill moved up.
5. Thug is dead.
6. Doctor save, irrelevant.
7. Janitor hides, conceals chiefsonny's body.
8. Twins are dead

Since the Mafia killed the chief, and the Mafia moved up because the Orange Agent was now dead, and only one person was killed and that person is now in the this thread.

I wonder who the Orange Agent was.(look)

August 19, 2012
Edit

That must mean... I AM THE ORANGE AGENT! (shifty) Okay, more than likely chief.

That shall be the only advantage to this thread so long as it is around for the game.

Assuming that nobody passes you on the leaderboard, do you plan on hosting the next game, chief?

August 19, 2012

`Roxas`

do you plan on hosting the next game, chief?


Not sure yet.
I was trying to hold off until some of these people that are a lot better at this game the I am to host before I do so I can get some ideas from what they do.

August 19, 2012
Edit
chiefsonny
 

Understandable. With Shadow hosting his own game, my hosting would depend on whether MM9 wants to host the next game or not.

Oh, and I believe you were No 4 on our list of targets, chief. You should feel honored.

August 20, 2012

Odd that discussion has died down in the MT.

I'd like to hear Zanic, lancer, and chief's thoughts on who the remaining three Mafia are.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Not entirely sure, but I think they could be Xhin, Yeano, and FAW.

August 20, 2012
Edit
Zanic

But I haven't been examining it close enough.

August 20, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Wasn't sure how Frustro and FAW were going to be in their first game, but they are both holding their own pretty damn well. They have made their replies at decent times, and only after they have gone through and read what has been said/done.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Something even I fail to do sometimes.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Yes, MM9, take out our #2.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

I'd like to hear Zanic, lancer, and chief's thoughts on who the remaining three Mafia are.

Well, let's see...

Also, in hopes that my comrades follow through with the plan I originated, welcome to you too, MM9.

Looks like it's not MM9.

I knew I should have saved myself on Night 0, but I originally did it on Yeano thinking that he'd be the Good Twin, only to rescind my decision later on in the round.

Not Yeano either.

Yes, MM9, take out our #2.

Also not Shadow.

It's probably safe to believe FAW's Double-voter claim (checks out with previous votes), so I'll remove her from the list. I also am fairly confident Redack is safe. That narrows it down a little bit, but still leaves a good number of suspects and I'm not sure I've been following closely enough to pick up on anything significant.

2. White Thunder
4. Feral
6. Frustro
7. Kyon
8. CtR Black
9. Xhin
10. Count Dooku
14. Trever Leingod
18. Jo Nathan

Feral, Kyon, CtR, and Count Dooku really haven't given me much to go off of. Xhin is a weird one because he was definitely acting suspicious, but his actions could make sense if he were a Townie. White Thunder, Frustro, and Jo Nathan could go either way--I try not to assume that someone's Mafia simply based on whether they vote a certain way or not, because when I was Mafia in Game 2 I was really quick to throw my fellow Mafiosos under the bus. Jo Nathan has been quick to jump on whatever voting bandwagon (notably the ones against Town-sided factions), so I'd be inclined to put him as a big suspicion. White Thunder's most recent post suggests that he's probably a power role (most likely the Drug Dealer) though it could just be a cover-up. Frustro I'm less suspicious of although there have been posts of his that have raised flags in my mind. I don't really find Trever suspicious at the moment but he also hasn't given too much to go off of.

August 20, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Count Dooku, CtR Black and either Yeano or Frustro.

White Thunder is also on my list.

August 20, 2012
Edit
chiefsonny
 

Interesting to hear all your thoughts. {8D} The game is getting exciting from this side.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Xhin and Trever should rip one another's throats out of the neck. A BLOODY DEATH INDEED, FOLKS.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

I think it is a stupid idea on the town's part to do a role reveal. When you only have a doctor with limited powers, the mafia will take out most of the power roles.

August 20, 2012
Edit
Zanic

The flipside to that argument, Zanic, is that the Town really doesn't have any strong power roles so seeing them get taken out isn't actually that detrimental. A role-reveal isn't as powerful of a strategy this game as it was last game for sure (the Mafia were basically dead meat once I started pushing the idea), but there are still pluses and minuses to it and it's not completely stupid.

August 20, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Which is why it should make for an excellent finish. They [the Mafia] will take out certain power roles (most likely starting with our Doctor) and move from there until only the basic Townies are left. I still, however, think they need to take care of MM9.

August 20, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Yeah, Majora will be an obstacle for the Mafia as long as he's around. I remember when I was Mafia way back in Game 2 that I was worried that we couldn't take Majora out because there were other people we absolutely had to get rid of first, and by the end we almost needed to keep him in there because he was one of the few who had even a little bit of suspicion cast on him. As I recall, the final 5 in that game were myself, chief, Shadow, Roxas, and Majora--I had to leave practically every one of the power players in there because other people wound up being a priority. Still my favorite game, though. ;)

August 20, 2012

One of mine too, although for me Game IX tops it thanks to my Fisherman role. Most fun role I've ever played in a Mafia game IMO. Should definitely be used in the future.

For me it was Game 4.

I was still new to the game and was a Mafia teamed with MajorasMask9, Shadowwalked, #85 and Helius.

And to watch these guys, especially MM9 and Shadow, play was inspiring. I learned a lot. And now I go into every game asking my self "What's MM9 going to pull this time. {:P}

I liked the Game where I successfully pointed out all of the Mafia based on Teddy's random vote. (Game Five?)

That was by far my best game. Even if it was stubborn, dumb luck.

`Roxas`

Nothing, had the Mafia killed him LIKE I HAD PLANNED.

August 21, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

My best game was probably my first. Which was game 3.

Mostly because I turned it around during day three when everyone voted for me and I put a ton of suspicion on Knukles. Although near the end, when I became a mason, I didn't make the best choice and we lost.

Actually, I can see them just fine...what browser are you using?


August 21, 2012
Edit
Black Yoshi

It's actually not your fault, Zanic.

We (myself, Shadowwalked, and poptart! and maybe one other person) talked it over after MM9 revealed. We didn't follow through at first because we believed him. Fortunately for us, you and CtR thought MM9 was a Cultist and tried killing him on the last night. We narrowed it down to you and LLight as the two people we had to choose from that weren't confirmed recruited. We thought it through, and while LLight is a great strategist and I honestly expected him to have been the target Night One for the Masons, we picked him because it dawned on me that, with it being your first game, there was the possibility that the Masons had that played to lure us into that trap.

You've really grown to be a very good player.

They were down for a bit. Feral messed with things from his DS (again). {:P}

And no problem. You'll see what I mean when the game is completed. I actually devised a strategy based on Tiers for the Town, ranking them from biggest threat to smallest. I honestly didn't know how to rank the players in the Middle Tier.

August 21, 2012
Edit
Black Yoshi

Game 4 was a great one as well, although simultaneously very frustrating for me because I was pretty much the only person who wasn't convinced LLight was Guilty. Spent so much time arguing that point that everyone who assumed LLight was Guilty assumed I was Guilty, so much so that even when it turned out that LLight was the Cop the Vigilante STILL thought I was Guilty and took me out. -_-

Also, LLight himself was quite frustrating in that game because he insisted on playing head games rather than actually be useful.

August 21, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Yeah, which was the main reason I wanted him gone, regardless of his role. If he had straight up said, "Yo, Majora is guilty and Feral is innocent!" No problems, I would have changed my vote to Majora (and subsequently #85). But he didn't, he was frustrating and he needed to go since he wasn't being helpful.

August 21, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

I mean white lancer also said I was "suspicious" in this game (I think)

Bah, Trever, I never said any such thing this game. -_- Stop making stuff up!

And WTF is with Xhin. At this point I'm half-tempted to believe that his antics are just an elaborate smokescreen. Voting for WT really doesn't make much sense (I guess he could be assuming that I'm the Drug Dealer, but that would be a long shot).

August 21, 2012
Edit
white lancer

And WTF is with Xhin


I don't know but it sure makes for some funny reading when the others respond to him.:D

August 21, 2012
Edit
chiefsonny
 

Indeed it does. I'll be surprised if a majority doesn't turn on him. While they aren't exactly similar to LLight in Game Four, it's certainly reminding me of that game.

KILL XHIN, DO IT TOWN!

If they don't, then it would be greatly beneficial to keep Xhin around as he is causing a major stir in the ranks.

August 21, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

The only way voting for WT really makes sense is if one of the players voting for him is the actual Drug Dealer (sort of like chiefsonny voting for Black Yoshi), but I very much doubt that because it wouldn't make any sense whatsoever for a Mafia member to claim Drug Dealer at this point.

August 21, 2012
Edit
white lancer

What the hell are they doing? They're like sheep jumping from one person to the next. They're just voting for whomever Xhin votes for. Do they not have minds of their own?

August 22, 2012
Edit
Zanic

Obviously not... I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Xhin is killed in Day Four.

August 22, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Hell, I'm surprised Xhin's lasted this long to begin with. Hasn't it been, like, a tradition in past games to kill him off in the first couple of rounds?

August 22, 2012
Edit
Black Yoshi

Yup. Plus the insanity he's caused in the last two rounds.

August 22, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Anybody want to take a guess how many day rounds this game goes.

I say 5.

August 22, 2012
Edit
chiefsonny
 

I'm tempted to say ten. I think the town will mislynch at least four more times, plus four Mafia kills, which narrows it down to 5-3. This is assuming that the Mafia isn't dwindled down further, but I do think the Town slips up more than they should. {>:(}

August 22, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

And Shadow joins the crowd of lemmings. -_- Why are they all so eager to follow Xhin? His arguments are far from conclusive and they aren't even that good IMO. Man, I wish I were still in the game.

August 22, 2012
Edit
white lancer

White Thunder will join us, as MM9 pointed out because of Shadowwalked's vote for White Thunder. Of course, assuming that FAW is the double voter.

-.- crap. My thoughts were to hope I hit the janitor and he wouldn't be able to hide the body. At least I was close, I hit a mafioso, but apparently he wasn't the janitor. Now I know who at least one of the Mafia is.

If that fool Xhin isn't mafia, I'ma be so mad. If he is... that was a good play, I guess. Not quite sure why everybody followed him, but whatever.

August 22, 2012
Edit
White Thunder

Everyone just blindly following Xhin is so baffling to me. Even normally solid players like MM9 and Shadow have just been allowing themselves to be led by the nose. For what it's worth, WT, voting you out will probably stand as the dumbest thing the Town does this game--last round was excusable because it produced results and because Yoshi WAS acting fishy, but there was no real reason to vote you out other than 'instinct' and plenty of reason NOT to vote you out (the Drug Dealer claim would have been enough to make me look elsewhere, at least for the time being).

[quote}]Welcome to death, Thunder. If you haven't already read this thread, it's worth it; your stimulant during Night 2 cost the town dearly.


What hezy is referring to is on night 2 when you used your power, you Drugged a mafia member which moved their night action ahead of mine. They killed me. Had I gone before them, I had picked a Mafia member, and probably would have taken out two by setting their house on fire.

But it's those kind of things that make the game so much fun.:D

You're not kidding, lancer. I've never seen anyone change his mind so much in a Mafia game since the last time Knuckles played. Either Xhin's busy schedule is starting to fray his mind or he's just using some clever strategy of scaring the Mafia into submission.

Intuition tells me Redack was probably the Doctor -- but then again, intuition in a Mafia game is as useless as a knife in a gunfight, unless you're a seasoned pro, which I'm not.

Black Yoshi

Why me (cry)

Oh well, now at least I'll watch the town screw itself over knowing I actually can't stop it... Although tbh I'm not sure anyone could stop the hypnotic powers Xhin has on this town... And his strategy is just moronic!!!!

Anyway, mafia is: Dooku, Yeano and someone else. Not worked out who yet, confident Dooku and Yeano are mafia though.

I suspect the mafia took me out because I wasn't following Xhin, the way they're going to win this is letting the town follow him. I do wonder if he's mafia, but the way he was talking to me on AIM makes me think it's just the worst strategy in mafia history (although he thinks otherwise).

Alternative is they killed me to draw attention to Xhin, make him look like mafia. Though personally my former theory is a smarter move I can see this having been a motivation.

Trust me. We're all baffled that the town is following Xhin as well.

August 22, 2012
Edit
Zanic

And watch how they'll all not lynch Yeano for ages (if at all).

If the mafia kills off the claimed power roles and then blends in well enough with the rest of the townies then they could easily win this if it follows the current route.

The issue with Xhin is he thinks the rest of us are predictable and using the same old strategies. So he's doing something new... Which he thinks is great... But his strategy is just ugh (does it even exist) and he's reading people wrong, evidence being white thunder and him not believing Yeano is mafia.

August 22, 2012

Redack

If I didn't know any better, I wouldn't think Yeano to be Mafia either. (shifty)

Xhin's strategy is beyond shit and is worse than the secretions from Satan's armpits.

August 23, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Xhin, Yeano, MM9. My guesses for Mafia. More later.

Unless Roxas has been deceiving us in this thread (not sure why he would), MM9 isn't Mafia. Also, he also stated that he considered saving Yeano during Night 0 because he thought Yeano might be the Good Twin, so unless I'm misunderstanding what he said then Yeano isn't Mafia either. If it weren't for that I probably would be convinced that Yeano was Mafia as well as I was suspicious of him from the first day.

I'm still not entirely sure who the remaining three Mafia members are...it should have been fairly obvious it wasn't White Thunder, though. My best guess at the moment is Dooku, followed by Jo Nathan, Kyon and I guess Xhin. Honestly at this point I would probably push for a Xhin lynch (well, I'd probably be more suspicious of Yeano) because even if he's a Townie his strategy is counter-productive and somewhat annoying.

August 23, 2012
Edit
white lancer

Regardless of the side Xhin is on, he needs to go today. If the still living aren't as fed up with Xhin's antics as we are, I will be shocked.

August 23, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

If the still living aren't as fed up with Xhin's antics as we are, I will be shocked.

I honestly think they aren't... MM9 doesn't seem to mind them and he was probably the best bet for shifting the town away from Xhin, but I couldn't get him to side with me against Yeano because Yeano has brainwashed MM9 with lies {:P}

The town seems generally clueless so they're letting others decide for them sadly. My hope is that a few like Trever & MM9 try to push the town in better directions than the ones Xhin wants to go.

Unless Roxas has been deceiving us in this thread (not sure why he would), MM9 isn't Mafia. Also, he also stated that he considered saving Yeano during Night 0 because he thought Yeano might be the Good Twin, so unless I'm misunderstanding what he said then Yeano isn't Mafia either. If it weren't for that I probably would be convinced that Yeano was Mafia as well as I was suspicious of him from the first day.

Roxas lied. No way he thought Yeano was the good twin on Night 0 and Yeano has been far too suspicious (plus wtf was up with that thing where he effectively told MM9 to lynch you should Yeano die). None of it adds up unless Roxas lied and Yeano is mafia.

Dooku is mafia. I promise that. He was reluctant to discuss the game at all on MSN at the start which I just figured was because of stuff in his life. So I left it alone. Tried talking about the game yesterday, again reluctant to do so (even tried to shift the subject to something else). He's past most of the stuff that was going on in his life and normally we enjoy discussing the game. Only logical conclusion is he's mafia. There is no other explanation for his behaviour {:P}

Final mafia I'd guess is probably either Xhin, Shadowwalked, CtR Black or Jo Nathan (unlikely but he's a tad suspicious).

You're right about the first three, chief.

I'm enjoying having Frustro and FAW around in the game. They are turning out to be strong players. Kudos to both of you, when you look over this thread. (look)

August 23, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Look at the people who voted for me. Feral and Shadow, who have been busy and can barely check in. They just voted with the crowd. The three new players, FAW, Frustro, and Jo Nathan. It makes sense that they could all be swayed easily. The only others to vote for me: Xhin, Yeano, MM9, hence why I think those three are Mafia. No way strong players like MM9 and Yeano should be swayed that easily. Xhin was not that convincing, as evidenced by Redack, CtR and you all not believing his claim. It would be just like MM9 and Xhin to cook up their fight/reconcile to clear both of their names.

Also my drug deal target was one of those three, so I know for sure that at least one of them was Mafia.

August 23, 2012
Edit
White Thunder

Or not {:P}

August 23, 2012
Edit
White Thunder

Bah, I never know what to do with CtR because he just naturally seems suspicious. I think he's one of the more common players to get lynched incorrectly because even when he's innocent he acts suspicious. That will actually probably help him here because I don't think I'm the only player who has noticed that--there's a decent chance they'll assume whatever suspicious actions he performs are just a part of his usual posting style. Didn't really have much to go off of with Dooku other than Redack's suspicions, but his post last day round seemed especially suspicious: it was his first post in a while and it just happened to occur after Redack suggested targeting him, and he said his internet issues were resolved but hasn't participated since. Hmm...

There was something off about Yeano's posts from the start, and I was convinced he was Mafia until I read Roxas' post about thinking he was the Good Twin (seriously, we get enough deception in the main thread. Thought we were safe from that here! -_-). He's a lot safer now that he's convinced MM9 that he's innocent, which is probably why MM9 is still around.

Agreed. They picked up this game rather quickly and it's nice having some new faces who are actually participating. Jo Nathan as well.

Anyway, so Yeano must have been the one both WT and chief targeted the night chief died. And now just about everyone who thought Yeano was suspicious is in this thread. -_-

Majora was playing great up until after the Black Yoshi vote, and then Yeano convinced him that he was innocent and he followed Xhin's little scheme. I'm hoping he'll return to form during this day round--even if Yeano has the wool pulled over his eyes at the moment, he's still going to be a dangerous player to have around and I don't know how much longer Yeano can fool him.

I'll let chief be the one to say who he targeted, if he chooses to do so.

I've got some hopes left for this game, as far as things I'd like to see happen. it is interesting how easily swayed people have been so far. And as always, I wish we didn't have people not participating in the game...

August 23, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Yeah. Kyon in particular confuses me--he keeps signing up for these games but doesn't participate at all. He actually did participate a little bit in his first game and in the game I hosted, but the last couple he hasn't even bothered to show up.

And I think the end of this game has the potential to be pretty exciting. Any or all of the three remaining Mafia members could make a run to the end, with Yeano probably being the least likely (although his life expectancy will be longer if Majora keeps insisting that he's innocent).

August 23, 2012

And after all that Xhin implicates two Mafia members in his only two posts. Unbelievable.

Hmm...

He was being truthful about that, was just pure coincidence that the two occurred on the same day. He's still mafia though.

I don't understand why they hid your body, Redack, after you claimed a role. It makes zero sense.

Even if someone claims a role, it's never certain that is their role. They may have done it in case I lied about being the gambler (and was say the doctor). They may have also done it because whoever the Janitor is has a high chance of going out soon. Better to hide the body and leave the mystery than waste what is possibly the last chance to use the hiding body power...

This is what I meant about learning from what others do when they host.

Why would a Host want 2 Double-voters in a game?

Ugh stupid Trever... Dooku voted for the good twin because it looked like that was the town plan (plus I think by that point we were already lynching Roxas).

Also two double voters. Didn't see that coming...

My goal was to have two double-voters ACTIVE so as to sow confusion in the town. But only one was, so the confusion is significantly less than I hoped it would be. You better Kyon's getting some negative points for this game.

Edit
hezekiah

I really REALLY want a copy of Yeano's book of sorcery... Because he's got some spell over Majora that's impossible to break, before my rather unfortunate (and no doubt depressing for the town that loved & worshiped me) death I had numerous AIM conversations trying to convince MM9 that Yeano is mafia and every time he seemed to come around but the an hour later he'd be all "I've changed my mind" and now Yeano has MM9 voting for Trever O.O

No wonder Yeano has left MM9 in play, he doesn't need to kill such a willing servant {:P}

A little under an hour and a half away from the end of the round, and the votes stand:

1 Vote for Shadowwalked

This will be an interesting end to the round, agreed?

Yea Roxas. Dunno if I said it earlier but, ever since I've died I've figured the only reason Yeano (and the other mafia) are keeping MM9 around is because he's the easiest one for Yeano to manipulate...

Processed this night round from my phone, so it's less wordy than usual.

August 26, 2012
Edit

In fact, if they take out Xhin there's a good chance that this game could boil down to Yeano and MM9 being the last ones.

Yeano's shown he's willing to be ruthless with his allies (didn't just hell lynch Roxas and Yoshi but joined the lynch early before its really picked up speed in the town). Its a good strategy that's helped him appear innocent and I expect he's willing to do the same with the other two mafia in play.

A lot of the town are just playing follow the leader as well which without a lot of the strong players that leaves Yeano and MM9 as the potential leaders...

I do hope we (the town) down lose because Yeano's tricked them {:(}

August 26, 2012

August 26, 2012

Yeano is playing brilliantly. He got all the suspicions into everyone's minds, making them all paranoid, and now he's keeping more quiet. That way he plays under the radar a bit. Xhin seems to have calmed down too...

And I'm not sure the mafia would kill Xhin considering he got the town to lynch the DD for them.

August 26, 2012

I think it would be a brilliant move to kill off Xhin now.

August 26, 2012

FAW would also be a good target, since the Town is never going to vote her out. They need to be taking out known innocents as well as strong players.

August 26, 2012

And I'm loving the game Dooku is playing. Pitting himself against Yeano is a strong strategy because if one of the two goes down and is proven to be Mafia the other one will come off looking a lot cleaner.

By the way, hezy, you could take the Drug Dealer's thread down now.

August 26, 2012
Edit

Yeah, MM9 is so close all the time, I'm just not sure why he's not his usual strong self. I really think he knows deep down that Yeano is Mafia and I'm not sure how Yeano has kept him under his spell for so long.

August 26, 2012
Edit
White Thunder

I was hoping on getting a better gauge of Yeano's skills here, but he hasn't really been posting much.

Shadowwalked would also be a good choice to knock off this Night. Frustro too, but they have to take into account that he may be protecting himself tonight and could just move on from there.

Still haven't read the dead thread but I'm pretty sure that CtR, Dooku, and Yeano are mafia, like I thought before I went ahead and gave Yeano a second chance.

Hoping that FAW and Frustro go after Yeano. Once Yeano's dead I don't think they'll have much trouble figuring out CtR and Dooku. Xhin is already suspicious of CtR, anyway. Dooku's another story, but once you're the last one standing it's usually hard to pull a win.

I'll let chief be the one to say who he targeted, if he chooses to do so.

Last night I kind of ranted at Yeano hard about him being mafia so I didn't think I'd survive! But I also did tell him about contacting Frustro. I'm hoping he assumes this means Frustro protected himself, and that he won't be protected tonight. I'm pretty sure Frustro will protect himself again if he did protect Dooku last night.

Started out great. After the first two Day rounds, we had taken out 2 Mafia and held a 10 player advantage. Don't know what the hell happened after that, but they only need to get 3 more of us townies and it's game over.

August 26, 2012

Should make for interesting reading to see how Yeano talks his way out of this one.

Yeano might have messed it up here. Not only do wall-of-texts automatically seem to scream "suspicious!" in mafia games, but the fact that he messed up one of his points--then drew attention to it in the next reply--is definitely going to be pointed out by Xhin or someone. Trever showing up innocent was pretty much what convinced me he was mafia.

Also, White Thunder, this probably won't seem like much and will also seem like a dick move SO I APOLOGIZE but I wasn't exactly voting for you because of Xhin. I did have some minor suspicions of you based on previous rounds, but it was all subjective stuff and I hate explaining myself on those things. I wasn't entirely convinced you were guilty, but I also thought that if you were innocent--meaning you'd be the Drug Dealer--that it would be better if your role was publicly revealed. I can't remember exactly what my rationale for it at the time, but I also didn't have any other leads, and wanted someone lynched, so I just kind of stuck a vote on you just to see where the game would go from there.

Also, apparently the only reason white lancer was killed instead of me on Night 1 was because of a coin toss. Lol.

You have nobody to blame but your team for your demise. They threw you under the bus to get me early on with pretty absurd suspicions.

Still doesn't change the fact that they used four kills (and four of five janitorial duties) on the first four nights. It went against everything that I had laid out for our win, especially since I think three or four of us (myself included) agreed on that strategy. You were #1 on my list of people to take out on Night One.

Also, Majora, what are your thoughts on hosting the next game?

August 26, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Jo Nathan potentially just opened things up.

4-2 in favor of killing Yeano over Xhin. If FAW votes for Xhin, then Dooku and Shadow both have to vote for the same option to get a lynch. Honestly, I think Dooku will go Xhin and Shadow may follow suit.

August 26, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Last game I said I'd like to host the next game. Unless chiefsonny wants to host (or anyone that ends up with more points than me), I'll still want to host :). Would be my first time hosting, so I've been looking forward to it for a while.

Alright, cool.

Hopefully next game, I don't die early on.

August 26, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

I think Dooku may choose to lynch Yeano. He's already set himself up as opposing Yeano in the previous round, if he chooses to continue that and lynch Yeano this round then bed be setting himself up as innocent... It'd be the smart thing to do, seems unlikely Yeano will survive this round.

Redack

Look, I just want to see Xhin dead (in the game) after all that BS he pulled Days Two through Four.

August 26, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

It's like Yeano did all the things to make him suspicious... purposely to make himself not strategy. Playing the "hurrdurr I would never be that obvious" card, which actually isn't a terrible play.

If they lynch Xhin, Yeano will go next round, but that leaves the town in a perilous situation.

And I really want my winning point.

MM9, don't worry about it, I was just mad that I got lynched {:P}

Although to be honest I still think you didn't play your normally stellar game. No offense.

August 26, 2012
Edit

4-3 with Shadow's vote, still in favor of killing Yeano. This may well come down to the strategy I mentioned. FAW will most likely be the deciding vote, with certainty if Dooku votes for Xhin.

I think CtR is banking on FAW voting Xhin and then he goes in for the final blow, or hopes somebody else does it.

Also, here's a fancy little note that I noticed while looking in the Vote Table:

Dooku has voted once this game, and that was for me on Day One.

I still think CtR will come back and be the bullet that takes out Xhin.

August 26, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Dooku was busy IRL and thus mostly inactive on here for a good portion of the game (although I expect he showed up in the mafia post more than he did in the main threads). So he has a reason for why he didn't vote.

August 27, 2012
Edit
Redack

I am most interested to see what Dooku does this round. Yeano probably figured he was pretty much dead meat so he threw a Hail Mary pass (the wall of text) to try to get someone else down before he died. Certainly if Xhin is lynched then Yeano will be the #1 target for the next day round, and as of right now it's working out for him. I definitely agree that the wall of text made him look super suspicious and I'm surprised more players haven't thought that, but I'm guessing he thought he had nothing to lose and he does have a few less experienced players in the game.

Dooku's reaction will be interesting because he's going to want to maintain his distance from Yeano (and he would look pretty fishy voting for Xhin after everything he said last round), but if he argues too hard he could swing the balance in the opposite direction and save Xhin. It's not an uncommon predicament for Mafia--I remember back in Game 2 in the second-to-last Day round, I jumped in immediately to vote for my only remaining fellow Mafioso Helius as a way to distance myself from him...but if I had waited only a minute or two I would have posted after Shadow, who had gone after chiefsonny instead and only switched his vote because of mine. In my rush to distance myself from my fellow Mafioso, I missed a chance to win the game a round earlier. :(

Anyway, I expect Dooku will probably wait for a while before posting. He can get away with that due to his general inactivity this game and if the balance shifts against Yeano (still very much a possibility) he will be able to cast his vote for a foregone conclusion and still come out looking innocent due to his leading the charge against Yeano last round. The other strategy (a riskier one, but maybe better in the long run) is for him to vote very soon and be the one to convince the Town to lynch Yeano, which would make him look even more innocent than the other option would.

You have nobody to blame but your team for your demise. They threw you under the bus to get me early on with pretty absurd suspicions.

Bah, you were acting super sketchy. There's a reason multiple people arrived to the same suspicion independent of one another.

August 27, 2012

I still fail to see how the suspicions (outside of Redack) were legitimate.

The Mafia has left the three new players plus Feral, who has been generally inactive and follows the crowd, to carry the town. I bet today all three of them jump on the same bandwagon (probably against JN) and hope Feral follows for the end-all lynch. I still think the town can pull it out. We'll see.

This night round will last at least until morning, as I need to sleep now.

August 27, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Wow, that was a fast couple of rounds. When I checked two hours ago Xhin was still alive.

It would probably have been better for Dooku's chances if he had at least been able to throw a vote Yeano's way. Not sure if the Town will remember how he went after Yeano a few rounds back. Also, they're now in a position where they have two players (FAW and Frustro) who are practically confirmed innocent, so their margin for error is pretty slim. One of those two has to go down tonight and Frustro's role will make that a little more difficult.

I still fail to see how the suspicions (outside of Redack) were legitimate.

Bah, that was too long ago for me to remember specifics, but I don't like to go too far into what makes people look suspicious because I don't want them to correct it for future games. :P Usually it has something to do with the way you talk that just seems off--it's a lot harder to fake innocence than you might think. I know that I was certain enough of your guilt that I didn't mind voting for you despite the fact that I'm generally fairly conservative with my votes. Redack's suspicion certainly helped (and I knew he was probably the Gambler and therefore innocent at that point).

August 27, 2012

What is going on.

I left here around an hour ago to go to the store and come back and Day 6 is over. That means it was only about 55 minutes long.

Holy shit, I go away for an hour and half or so and all hell breaks loose... I like it. {8D} Kind of coincidental since I just watched Lilo & Stitch. {:)}

Welcome, Xhin, Shadowwalked and Yeano.

And they did all this in less then 8 hours gone in the 1st day of the Day 5 round. Man, that's got to be a record.

Nope. The Cult/Mason game had a Day Round (Day Four?) go for less than thirty minutes. All because of my genius strategy of claiming my once upon a time role of Cop.

August 27, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

Yeah, I just checked and it was a 30 minute round. Insane.

August 27, 2012

I bet they take out FAW tonight, meaning they only have to sway one of the voters, probably Feral rather than Frustro. I bet they go after JN tomorrow and get him.

August 27, 2012

White Thunder

There is no need to hide FAW's body. They will be stupid not to go after her. She is the person who is in between the Mafia and the win.

August 27, 2012
Edit
`Roxas`

JUST SAYING the endgame rounds are why I've seriously been all for a 24 hour minimum on day rounds. It's ridiculous to have a round last less than an hour, especially when night rounds will usually end when while most of the mafia are still online. Jo Nathan probably won't even get a chance to defend himself properly by the start of the next round.

Been saying this for several games now but really it should definitely happen who is with me???

August 27, 2012
Edit
MajorasMask9

But also, something I was curious about on a more technical level: If the double voter is still alive when the ratio is 2:2, should the game keep going?

The reason the game ends (AS FAR AS I KNOW) at an equal ratio is because you can assume the mafia and town will tie the votes, leading to a no-kill during the day followed by townie death in the night. With a double voter alive though, it's still possible for the town to come out with a majority in the votes.

I'm fully expecting FAW to die this night or next night round anyway, so I'm more curious for future games with DVs in it.

August 27, 2012
Edit
MajorasMask9

Wow, how many rounds just passed us by while I was asleep?

If I was still alive and playing I'd be appealing right now.

Anyway, looking at who we have left... I've very little hope in us winning. Though I'm glad to see Yeano finally got killed {:/}

Fortunately, I brought up dooku's possible guilt right before the end of the day round, so there's no possible way they could miss it.

I brought up Yeano and Dooku's guilt and you all ignored it!

August 27, 2012

Because nobody listens to you, Redack. {:P}

August 27, 2012

`Roxas`

It's based upon number of players alive, not total possible votes. Just like the votes required to end the round.

Dooku was angry about me ending the last day round before he could cast his worthless vote.

August 27, 2012
Edit
hezekiah

Doesn't make sense for them to keep FAW around, unless they can manage to have a 3-3 vote tie and everybody lock in their votes (assuming that hezy wants to do that). Just doesn't make much sense to me... Regardless, I think today (real time) will be the last day of Game X.

my once upon a time role of cop.


Uhh, Roxas, shouldn't that be second-upon-a-time, or even like tenth-upon-a-time? Because IIRC, you've been the Cop for at least half the Mafia games ever played, probably more.

August 27, 2012
Edit
Black Yoshi

Taking Feral out last night was a risk, and probably an unnecessary one. They were probably trying to paint Jo Nathan as being guilty because of Feral's suspicions of him, but this leaves JN as their ONLY real target to lynch this day round. If FAW doesn't think JN is suspicious, the Mafia is in real trouble because by process of elimination they can only be Dooku and CtR. They also can't push too hard to lynch JN without looking suspicious, and they have to avoid working in tandem.

They have a very real chance of pulling this off (and this is the best game we've had in long time IMO), but I'm hoping that enough suspicion has been cast on Dooku that Frustro and FAW will consider taking him out.

Uhh, Roxas, shouldn't that be second-upon-a-time, or even like tenth-upon-a-time? Because IIRC, you've been the Cop for at least half the Mafia games ever played, probably more.

Roxas was referring to the game with the Cultists, which was the very first game he received the Cop role (but very briefly).

Dang it, Frustro. I can't blame him too much, though, since as I mentioned earlier Dooku's argument against Yeano was a good play on his part. Unless something changes drastically it looks like the Mafia have this one--and a well-earned victory it will be.

If anything, you questioning my validity only further casts my suspicions on Jo Nathan, who tried a similar strategy last round.

Bah, why does Frustro get suspicious of the innocent Jo Nathan for questioning his validity but not find Dooku suspicious for doing the same? Not to mention Dooku did the classic "you voted for me now I'll vote for you" strategy.

Sorry, having reply issues.

Killing me may have been risky, but well worth the rewards. It saved their lives, as I was set to pull a HUGE upset. ALL night role players had to be around when day 6 started, since night 5 ended so fast. Dooku, CtR, and Jo posted right away. Both Jo's unanswered doctor claim(the first 4 people to die were the twins, orange agent, and Mafioso) and his alligence to the obviously innosent Frustro point to him being innocent. That leaves Dooku and CtR as Mafia.

I just read the post in the main thread and have one thing to say.

End this game and put us out of our misery.(horror)

Well my fellow townies it's been real. But the facts are we leave this game with no points. I had hoped to break 30, but I'll have to wait until next game.

@`Roxas` You may get enough points out of this to move into the lead or at least a tie.

Well, the Mafia played a tremendous game(HUGE props to Yeano), and got lucky where it really counted(Chief's untimly death, killing me just in time to prevent me from turning things around), so they deserve the win.

I don't think so. I'm still waiting to here back from my recruiter about ASVAB/MEPS in Tampa.
