night 0 are the odds in your favor

Posted March 2, 2013 by Helius

Lightning strikes against the cold dark night in the sleepy little town of Yeanoville; however, the city council recently determined that it should be called Lancerville. They just haven't changed the signs yet. They were going to erect a statue of Yeano in the town square to honor his memory.

But things were starting to brew in Lancerville as members of the town gathered or slept. Rumor had it that there was going to be a turf war pretty soon between the Mafia that moved into town and the town folk that inhabited the small community. It wasn't the first time that such an event happened, and it sure wouldn't be the last.

Even now the Townies thought about arming themselves with machetes, pitchforks, flashlights, and guns. The Mafia, on the other hand, had a wide variety of weapons to deal with the nuisances.

The violence was so wide spread that the Governor, an FBI agent, and a Pulitzer prized Journalist were all on scene to crack down on violence or to witness the violence. Meanwhile, the Cop of the town was out patrolling the streets. And who could forget the world famous Psychiatrist who came to town to help those unfortunate souls with their trauma.

The Godfather got his troop ready for war. He instructed the Janitor to hide the bodies. The Executioner would make sure lynching occurred with or without the Towns help. Then there was the underling... He'd do whatever was necessary.

And so our history of violence begins with:

1. `Roxas`
2. white lancer
3. White Thunder
4. Black Yoshi
5. MajorasMask9
6. Female Alpha Wolf
7. Count Dooku
8. Castrael
9. CtR Black
10. hezekiah
11. Jo Nathan
12. Feral
13. Redack
14. chiefsonny
15. Trever Leingod
16. Xhin
17. Vandy

Our ratio for the game is 11 - 4 - 2.

Are the odds in your favor?

Vandy

O.o I don't see how I'm doing that.

The sacrifices one makes for the sake of the game. I liked my old role better. Ah well, time to turn on the brain.

March 2, 2013
Feral

I couldn't keep the roles I had because we had more people sign up. Besides, you were all talking about the roles you had anyhow.

March 2, 2013
Helius

Oh, per Dooku's request, we have that nifty countdown clock at the bottom of the announcements area. That should let you know how much time you guys have left before I end a round.

Yea, tell me about it. With that restart I went from the Penthouse to the Shithouse. It's happened last time we had a restart.(facepalm)

At least you have had good roles before, mine have always sucked {:/}

Just a heads up, I'm going to be at work until about maybe 11 tonight (yay 10 hour shifts with no break) so that will be the cause for my silence today, and perhaps tomorrow.

So I've never played the game with the Psychiatrist role, and I just looked it up under the Mafia Roles tab but... I still don't understand what they do. Someone care explaining?

Psychiatrists have the power to undo insane roles if they visit someone who is insane during the night.

The very presence of this role makes me wonder if we have an insane cop on our hands, or something like that.

March 2, 2013
Trever Leingod

Trever's right.

I think the role was introduced when we first had the Insane Cop role. That's really the only thing the roles good for.

The very presence of this role makes me wonder if we have an insane cop on our hands, or something like that.


I thought all roles had to be listed if they were being used in a game. Could be wrong.

Lancer and I discussed this... It's better that the town doesn't know there is an Insane Cop but posting that there is a Psychiatrist, it's assumed there is a role that needs the Psychiatrist. Thus the problem with the role.

It's something that needs to be worked out for future games, but I will confirm there is an Insane role.

March 2, 2013
Helius

The cop isn't nessesaraly the insane one. It could be anybody. Hell, there may be more then 1.

March 2, 2013
Feral

Nope. There is only 1. The Psychiatrist and the Insane role know that the role is such.

March 2, 2013
Helius

That explains the two yellows then. :3

March 2, 2013
Castrael

Wow my mind is not where it should be today... >< i just read the thread (facepalm)

March 2, 2013
Castrael

Yellow roles are neutruel with unique winning conditions.

March 2, 2013
Feral

If the insane person knows they are insane, we can strategize at least. We really only need worry if it is the cop or governor. If the Psyc themselves is insane, they should just act like a normal townie, as their role is pointless. If it is the Cop or Governor, they should try to leave a subtle hint for the psyc that they need curing. Any other role, they Psyc should forget about as curing a neutruel or Mafia would only hurt us.

Feral

Wait, the game was restarted? (cry) Wish I had got on sooner and checked. Ah well, back to watching me show.

March 2, 2013
`Roxas`

Nope. There is only 1. The Psychiatrist and the Insane role know that the role is such.


I was under the impression that the insane role didn't know they were insane... Last time the cop didn't seem to be aware, and as a result could post false information.... If it were the cop again and they knew they're insane, then all they do is reverse the results you give them and bingo they get the right info.

March 2, 2013
Redack

The point of my previous reply being: if they know they're insane then they might as well not be insane.

March 2, 2013
Redack

What Redack said.

I'll try not to screw up as badly as I did last game {:P}

I'm definitely not going to randomly vote this time around. >< After what had happened the last two games.

March 3, 2013
Castrael

Also INB4 mafia kill me the first chance they get (cry)

March 3, 2013
Redack

No, Red, I think we need to get back to killing Xhin first. (hehe)(hehe)(hehe)

March 3, 2013
`Roxas`

Or, Red, Dooku can surrender himself to the Mafia and will let you live. (hehe)

I kid.

Insane role will not be given 100% accurate information or allowed to make 100% accurate decision. This is a problem with how the Insane role is worded in the description. So the information that person gets may or may not be true at least until the Psychiatrist cures that role.

This is how I have gotten around the no need for Insane role. It seems fair because if you're truly insane, you have good days and bad days. I'm trying to fix it as we go on, and at the very least, if this is a horrible idea... least we will have nixed one way of fixing it.

That's all I am going to say on behalf of that.

Let's ask the gtx0 coin which side will win the game (Hint: the gtx0 coin is never correct).

Heads: Mafia
Tails: Town

March 3, 2013
MajorasMask9

Yessssssss

March 3, 2013
MajorasMask9

Someone isn't optimistic...

March 3, 2013
Helius

So GTX0 coin says the Town will win (since it's never correct). Good to know ^_^

And yes I agree, Xhin should be the first to die. It is tradition.

And a tradition we have strayed from for many games!
