team rocket headquarters

Posted May 26, 2015 by Feral Wolf

Every Pokemon knows that you can't trust a human to do what a 'Mon can do better. That is why, despite Giovanni's failed attempts at conquereing the world, his faithful Persian has taken things into it's own paws. But you have help- a certain evil legendary has gladly offered to assist your cause.

White Lancer- you are Persian. You are the leader of the Rocket 'Mon and get the final say on everything. In addition, with your feline grace and deadly claws, you double as an assasin. At night, you may make an extra knock-out(kill). Watch out for that Rocket bravado, though. I will flip a coin, and if it comes up Tails, you will have bragged about your deed to much, revealing your identity to the Rangers.

Speed Bike Pro- How fitting that you are Darkrai(since you are the one guy who actually knows this unique roll already). Using your powers to induce nightmares, you can alter the results of a power role... if the target you selected HAS a power role. Pikachu's results would be reversed, Celebi's protect would be unsucsessful, and Mew would see nothing reguardless of their results.

Xhin- you are Mowth. Outside of your unwavering loyalty to Team Rocket, you have no speacil abilities(basically a vanilla Mafia).

Yay, mafia for once.

What do you think, should I just continue feigning inactivity?

Speedy, could you take a look in the Request forum when you have a sec? Exec-host knowledge needed.

Jo Nathan, Roxas, Frustro seem likely candidates for the Pikachu based on the message they sent. Not sure how much stock we want to put on that, but it's an option.

Just to let you guys know, I'm actually pretty active right now.. I'm just doing site work rather than posting much so it doesn't seem like it.

Works for me. I think hezy and Jo are also reasonable kill targets.

I'm not locking this in, but I think I'll wait a night before attempting to use one of my kills. It's a bit of a risk since I could get lynched tomorrow, but I don't think that chance is as high as the 50-50 chance of my role being revealed. Plus maybe no Persian kill will raise suspicion toward less active players.

I agree on holding off with your kills. If we get a favorable day round tomorrow then it may be worth the 50/50 reveal risk to go for a double kill Night 2.

Unless Darkrai targeted me, which would result in me getting an incorrect read on his role, is that correct, Feral?

-Roxas


Was this a host error? Because I did target Roxas.

May 29, 2015

Nope. Actually, YOU are the reason he got the result he did. Believe it or not, Roxas INCORRECTLY saw Persian as Persian. Let me explain.

Normally, Roxas doing a check on Lancer would have yielded a result of Lancer being a plain Ranger. But, you altered Roxas' check, resulting in him getting the OPPOSITE result, in this case, Lancer coming back as Mafia. The fact that he got the Persian roll was just a chance, from a flip of a pair of coins.

Seriously, I never saw this twist coming. I couldn't have planned this out in 100 years.

Persian should have been removed from the list of potential roles to be revealed. If it's ever selected at random, it just confirms for the Pikachu that they've been hit by Darkrai (as it did here).

lol. Hubris, perhaps?

I was told lancer is Persian, but Persian can't be detected by Pikachu. However, if a member of the Rockets is targeted by Pikachu AND Darkrai targets Pikachu, Pikachu gets another Rocket members role instead of their actual role.

Please tell me you didn't give Pikachu this ruling in his thread. As I said in the main thread, it makes actual zero sense whatsoever.

I told hiw what I told the main thread, that a Darkrai tagreted Pikachu gets a random result from the opposing team. The word "Persian" never came up beyond the result. He did all his deductions on his own.

As far as Persian being a possible random role, that;'s how chance works- a role of the dice. I can't change my rules because a one in a million chance thing happens that hurts one saide badly.

I'll vote hezekiah, for now at least. I'm not overly attached to that vote. We don't actually have to kill Roxas since we can just Darkrai him every night (since Mew is dead), but if we manage to hit Celebi we should just take him out anyway since he's a confirmed innocent. We should probably take out people who seem to have more interest in the game since that may be an indicator of a power role.

I'm a little concerned about my position still since Roxas now believes I'm a confirmed innocent...it would make so much sense for the Mafia to take the innocent out, so when I don't die I might become a target again. Still, I'm pretty hesitant to pull the trigger on one of my kills so early and risk being revealed. What do you guys think?

I'm cool with killing hez. I'll use my power on Roxas again.

Meh, Roxas would be the obvious kill but they still have a doctor so I think you're okay.

Wow, that was lucky. Pretty good hits so far--after we take out Roxas tonight, we'll have hit all three power roles in the first three nights.

If we can keep Xhin alive today, that would be pretty nice. I can't really flip-flop on it though.

I think we should kill Frustro and FAW. The fact that my role is still alive nullifies any of Roxas' results. Plus, Frustro is essentially confirmed innocent and FAW is a late game carry. We can play Frustro's last words against Black Yoshi to our advantage and mind game the town via Roxas' results.

That being said, I'll use my power on Jo Nathan tonight.

I don't know where Lancer is, but night ends in an hour. You need to chose a SINGLE kill target or I will have to void them both and go with a Mafia no-kill.

Hey, sorry about that. I've been around enough to check the main thread but only when I'm not in a position to post.

Also, I just wrote something about how we needed to survive one more day round after this one to win, but I realized my math was wrong. Either a No Kill or a mislynch should be enough to carry the day--a mislynch puts the ratio at 3-2 and the Nightkill wins it, while the No Kill puts the ratio at 4-2 and my Persian kill along with the Nightkill ends it. That being said, I'll try to get Yoshi lynched.

June 5, 2015

And Black Yoshi is lynched. That'll be game, folks.

Black Yoshi isn't lynched, thanks to Pikachu, but it's still game so long as you use Persian's power.

Congrats on the win, guys!

Wow, no lynch was absolutely the worst thing the Town could have had happen there. You go from having at least a chance of hitting a Mafia member and staying alive to basically losing automatically. I guess Roxas could hope for Persian to be inactive, but given that literally everyone left posted in that last day round...

Well, it's only fitting that the cat takes out the mouse, so Persian will eat Pikachu (AKA Roxas tonight. And my vote will go to Jo Nathan, in vengeance for Xhin.

June 6, 2015

Super lucky to win this game, by the way. Hitting the two power roles in a row in what were basically shots in the dark, and even Roxas getting the Persian role for me was a pretty big advantage since no one figured out that potential interaction and it proved Darkrai had hit him that night. EvilGuy getting Hostkilled was also nice for us because it meant one less day we had to survive (I think we would have had trouble if Speed had been eliminated because sooner or later people would wonder why the 'confirmed innocent' Lancer was still alive).
