The Lunar Whale

Note: There will, undoubtedly, be spoilers in both the intro and throughout the game
Note 2: Shlin, if you're reading this, I swear I had this in my mind before you started your space mafia game. Mine was up on the signup list before yours, so please don't think I'm copying you or anything.

Cecil the Paladin and the other heroes have just defeated the Giant of Babel at its core. After a long discussion with the Dark Knight Golbez, he learns that his arch-enemy, who killed the King of Baron, and stole the Crystals in order to summon the monstrous titan that he just defeated, is his own brother. But despite this, Golbez is not the true villain. He was under the control of Zemus, a man imprisoned in the core of the moon, whose goal is to destroy all civilization on Earth, so that he might live there himself. This same Zemus had also been the one who controlled Kain, Cecil's friend and the commander of Baron's Dragoons, and forced him to betray his allies. Now, however, Golbez has regained his consciousness, and plans to go to the moon, along with the Lunarian FuSoYa, to redeem himself of his bloodstained past. Cecil and his friends cannot leave them to go alone, however. They hurry to the Lunar Whale, the only vessel that can take them to the moon, in an attempt to follow Golbez.


But it seems Golbez and FuSoYa have been stopped in their tracks by a plot hole...

FuSoYa: If I may ask, Golbez, how are you going to get us to the moon without the use of the Lunar Whale?

Golbez: That's easy, you old fool, we just have to... err...

FuSoYa: Evidently, you let Zemus do the thinking when you were under his control.

Golbez: Hmph. We'll just have to get there before Cecil and company take off with the intent of helping us. Although I'd hoped not to involve him any more...


Later, at the Lunar Whale, Cecil, Kain, and the Ninja Edge were planning on leaving to go fight Zemus alone. However, Rosa, Cecil's love interest and a White Mage, and Rydia, a Summoner, would have nothing of it. They argued for hours over the topic, and soon Cecil's other friends arrived, with the intent of helping. One by one, Yang the Monk, Edward the Bard, Cid the Engineer, and the Twin Mages Palom and Porom arrived. By the time the argument had ended, Golbez and FuSoYa had showed up as well. Now all of them would go to the moon, and defeat Zemus. With 12 of the world's greatest warriors, there was no way he would stand a chance! But Zemus, of course, had other plans...

They all went up to the command deck in order to start up the ship. But as soon as they arrived, they noticed that the Crystal which would teleport them to the moon had been shattered! Someone, undoubtedly under the control of Zemus, had sabotaged their plan! Now they would have to use the backup engine, which, despite being more powerful than any airship's engine, would take them several days to get to the moon. During the long trip, the one under Zemus' control would probably try to pick them off, one by one. If the heroes were going to live to see their arrival at the moon, they would have to take matters into their own hands and find the saboteur.

Each character will have a special ability that they'll be able to use to the advantage of their side.
I would ask that the saboteur and anyone who has an active ability email me at Chaotix2732@yahoo.com instead of pm-ing me, in order to prevent people from trying to catch the saboteur that way.

There will be 1, or possibly 2 saboteurs, 1 vigilante, and the rest are 'town'.
Private reveals are not allowed.
Abstaining from vote is not allowed.
Quoting pms, from me or anyone else, is not allowed.
The dead can not post.
Each phase will last 24 hours, if I am on time.
The game will start with a day phase.

I ask that you post in order to sign up, and feel free to ask me questions or make suggestions, because this is my first time hosting a game. I would also appreciate it if the people who signed up by pm also posted here before the game starts. Thanks!

Also:
-Although it is true that Golbez and Kain were once under Zemus' control, the saboteur could be anyone. There is no greater chance that it will be one of those two than any other, although it is still possible.
-Your character may be a girl. Please don't cry. I'm picking them all randomly. :grin:

Signups Closed.

Edit: I was really hoping to play with the full cast of FFIV, but if I'm not gaining players and starting to lose them, I may have to make some changes and start with 10 people. Regardless of how many people I have, I'm starting the game 16 hours from now, which is 12 PM EST.

Chaotix
08-31-2008, 17:41
Role PMs are all sent. Let the Games begin. It starts with a Day Phase, so get voting!


Cid fired up the Lunar Whale's backup engines, and the 12 heroes set off. Or so they thought...
After a while they realized that Edge and Yang were missing. Zemus's minion must have thrown them overboard just before they took off! Now there were only 10 heroes, and at least one them was controlled by Zemus, and still on board, waiting for the night to kill them all...

And so Day 1 begins.

I am FuSoYa, the guardian of the Lunarians.......

I am revealing myself because surprisingly I have 3 extra lives, 'the strong Lunarian blood flowing in your veins' has made me somewhat into an invincible character. I'm still vulnerable to lynches but the mafia can forget about trying to murder me.

Unless anyone else claims to be FuSoYu then I think everyone can be positive certain that I am not lying.

Caius is now in.
He could be town or mafia.


As the Lunar Whale took off, the heroes inside were already arguing with each other about who they thought was guilty. They did not realize the figure clinging onto the bottom of the spacecraft. The shadowy figure made his way inside of the Lunar Whale, and to everyone's surprise, showed up in the main hall.

still dont no who to vote for, lynchings a serious matter
and this shadowy figure should explain themselves, an unknown person comes in from no where? my guess is hes a spy, or maybe something worse...

hmmm...caius must be edge or yang by the looks of it, unless choatix changed peoples roles around...?

Would that mean he's Edge? Or maybe Yang?
Either way he's a protagonist in the original, but his allegiance is unknown here.

Why would you do such a thing?

Askthepizzaguy
09-01-2008, 06:32
Ok, let's work this out together, shall we?
______________________________

Day one: Blind lynch
Night one: murder, vigilante killing

3 dead, 8 remain

______________________ Follow me so far?

Day two: Blind lynch
Night two: murder, vigilante killing (if the vigilante still lives)

6 dead, 5 remain

_______________________ This will happen, most likely. Unless we tie up the votes. DONT tie the votes unless it can kill two suspects on the final night.

Day three: Blind lynch
Night three: murder, vigilante killing (if the vigilante still lives)

9 (most likely) dead, 2 remain.

Victory conditions achieved for town or Mafia, because either Mafia are all dead, or one is left to kill the remaining townie, which means town loses.

We only get three shots at this, unless we accidentally kill the vigilante. And since Quintus claimed he is immune to 3 murders/kills (but not lynchings), it is likely impossible for Mafia to kill Quintus. Only town can kill Quintus, in most likely scenarios. That means either Mafia wants him dead, or he IS the Mafia.

Which means either my reasoning sucks, Chaotix came up with some very exotic rules where normal mafia logic doesn't apply, or Quintus is the Mafia and trying to trick us, or Quintus is town and just pulled a Spartan. Hurting his own team when trying to help them.

In any case, I suggest that he has hurt whichever side he is on, and therefore should be lynched. And unfortunately I should be lynched on night two or three, because I suggested it.

:no:
If he is telling the truth, then Mafia wants Quintus dead and only town can deliver it. If he is lying, he must be lynched. If Quintus dies and the game continues, then I have to be lynched or vigilante killed next turn or the turn after to be on the safe side.

I don't suppose it would help town if I tell them I am a townie. Sigh... :wall:
I know for sure I am town, but you guys don't. That means if I am wrong, not only am I responsible for bandwagoning an innocent player with a good townie skill, but also responsible for my own lynching, which doesn't help town either.

:wall:

Still, I can think of NO situation where Quintus' reveal helps town, or even his own side.

IF: Quintus is town:
He just told mafia not to kill him, which would waste their kill. WHY???
He just told town something which would make him seem suspicious, so we kill him. WHY???

IF: Quintus is mafia:
He just said something which makes him appear VERY guilty. WHY???
He told town the ONLY WAY TO KILL HIM is to lynch him. WHY???

IF: Quintus is town, but made an error in revealing:
Then Quintus is hurting town, and is a bad townie, and we need good townies to survive. Lynch.

IF: Quintus is mafia, but made an error in revealing:
Then Quintus is a bad mafia, and he's hurting mafia's side. And a mafia would not intentionally do that. But it helps town to eliminate him. Lynch.

_________________________________

Is there any case where the reveal helps town?

Now, here is an exotic idea:

Imagine Quintus is Mafia, but IMMUNE TO LYNCHINGS! He can only be killed by the vigilante, let's say.

Even so, his reveal makes him suspicious and people will vote for him. This will end up with the following result: Either he doesnt die, proving he lied and is therefore scum and can only be killed by the vigilante, or he doesn't die and everyone who voted for him died. Then the vigilante HAS to kill him next turn or else town loses.

Conclusion:
Even in this farfetched scenario, nothing Quintus is doing is helping his own team, and therefore should be lynched by town AND killed by any mafia teammates he has, just to be on the safe side.


And finally I could be on a wild goose chase here, but I think the reasoning holds up.

Vote: Quintus.JC

Sorry, buddy.

And Town, if I am wrong, I'm very sorry. :wall:

glyphz
09-01-2008, 07:24
I'm not sure how Quintus.JC's reveal even help the town.
The mafia won't be wasting one night now trying to kill Quintus, since he knows who he is, which renders his ability somewhat useless...
If he's indeed good (a mystery, but no one's challenging his claim to be Fusoya), it'd be a waste lynching him.

Indeed, do you mind telling why you revealed, Quintus?

Okay, maybe I'm a bad townie then, but definitely not a bad mafia. Please don't lynch me, let the vigilante have his go, if I am able to survive his attack then it should prove my innocence, because clearly the mafia wouldn't need 3 lives.

Askthepizzaguy
09-01-2008, 09:10
Sorry, I don't believe ya. You had no reason to fear a lynch because no one was voting for you, and you have no reason to fear a lynch anyway if you're town. Townies should never fear a lynch, even if they had a super massive uber awesome special ultra cool talent like yours.

Town will survive without you, I am sure. :yes:

I'm town and I have uber pwnage hidden talents too but I'm not going to care if town lynches me. :smash:

I'm sure you're aware that everyone, even the mafia, does not wish to be offed. Your revelation, on Day 1 no less, has likely put you on top of others' suspicious list, including mine.
Night's calling and I was just about to place my (permanent) vote on you, just before I head to bed.

I'm open to have the vigilante have a go at you, and hope that s/he actually does, but that does not mean that s/he will.

Askthepizzaguy
09-01-2008, 09:21
I would disagree with my good friend glyphz, here...

we should have separate lynch and vigilante kills, because if we are right with one the other will be wasted. If Quintus survives tonight we lynch/vigilante (whichever didnt happen today) tomorrow.

3 anti-murders is teh ubor pwnage. At this point, if Quintus isn't the real saboteur, then the sabateur could jump up and down and say "I'm the saboteur" and I would still find it less suspicious.

:laugh2:

sorry to put an indelicate point on it, but thats how I feel.

EDIT/ADD: Dont waste a vigilante on Quintus if we're voting him, please.

Quintus, didn't you just reveal that you have 3 lives and, basically, that only lynches can kill you? Now you're asking us to waste a vigilante on you.

either you're lying or asking us to waste a lynch on a 3 day mafia game. We only have 3 shots. Even if we are right that you're the killer we cannot afford to waste a vote and a lynch on you in one day.

I suppose we could vigilante you tonight and lynch you tomorrow, but even so you'll be dead and that takes twice as long. I don't see the point. Either we let you live entirely or we lynch you now.

:clown:

That was just an abbreviation, I was supposed to say harmless, anyway how can I kill people if I'm armless. Do you really think a mafia would be that dumb into attracting this much attention on himself this early on? People should know when I'm the mafia I was never like that.

Askthepizzaguy
09-01-2008, 09:50
So that begs the question;

Why ARE you attracting this much attention to yourself this early on?

Also, if I made a mistake and people pointed it out, one of my defenses would be "Do you really think I'd be THAT dumb?"

I suppose we can have the investigator check you out to see if you're clean, and wait until tomorrow to turn you into Quintus.JCrispy. I hate to waste a turn on that, though, seeing as you reek of scummy goodness. My vote stands as is. I suppose the other townies can decide your fate. As long as we dont waste an investigation, vigilante kill, or lynch by having two or more against the same person, I'm happy.

You just seem to be panicking at the thought of a lynch. I think this smiley looks like you: :sweatdrop:

If you wish to defend yourself, enlighten me. What was your strategy? Assuming you're clean, why would you help the mafia by telling them not to bother wasting kills on you? Assuming you're clean, why would you distract town by saying something so suspicious? Just plain old misspeaking? Or is there a sinister motive behind all this?

Good or not I've never been lynched in the first round. I'd hope to continue my good record, let the detective and the viglante have their share of work.

Bah, getting lynched on the first round is fun, I did it lots of times :yes:

The way I see it, you shouldn't have revealed yourself, as if the mafia attacked you you would have survived, and thus flummoxing the mafia, thus giving town a chance as they potentially waste another kill on you as they think you got some special role.

Thus, Unvote: Elite Ferret

But I'm not gonna vote Quintus.JC yet as I just saw WH's vote and I do not want to be the bandwagonner...

I don't think QJC is guilty, while I was very impressed with ATPG's analysis I have been paired with QJC as mafia before and he didn't behave at all like this, then when he knew he was going to die he accepted it and admitted he was mafia and when he was alive he did not make up any reveals or make any false claims, but actually tried to help the town, posted good reasoning albeit leaving himself and I off because we were actually guilty, I urge you not to lynch him, he is not acting like mafia.

So far I see a very weak defense from Quintus, basically urging people to lynch him due to the lack of any case whatsoever. He doesn't even respond to my point that lynching him would waste a precious move, as he has already claimed thats ineffective. He has no other suspects.

Then I see a defense of Quintus by Elite Ferret. This makes me suspicious of Elite Ferret because it all boils down to: "I vouch for Quintus. Take my word for it. Have I ever steered you wrong?"

Sorry, EF, but I don't buy your arguments either. You cannot know if Quintus is innocent, so why are you defending him unless you're also a sabateur and you happen to know he's guilty? Private role reveals are not allowed.

I cannot change my vote, and I urge people to hang Quintus. Then I have to FoS: Elite Ferret for suspicious defense of the one known as QJC.

hmmmm.... On second thought I believe there is a case to be made against Caius, as I argued with glyphs earlier last night, it would be the perfect place to sneak in a very unsuspicious character to be the second sabateur.

Why lynch just one suspect when we only have 3 nights, and on the final day the remaining player gets murdered anyway?

I call for a double lynch, Caius and Quintus. This will double town's chances of catching the scumbag, and it will NOT reduce their chances of winning at all by even one night. Work it out on paper.

This is the only instance where I would condone a double-lynch.

usually in mafia games, if town is undecided between two top candidates, the moderator lynches both. I see no reason why he would not, unless of course, as in my game, all town ever did was double lynch.

But if Chaotix will rule on whether or not we can double lynch, that would be great.

APTG, I've played enough mafia games to not make myself look obviously guilty by defending a guilty looking person with no cause, after playing with him before I genuinely believe he is innocent despite having had no personal contact or anything, I think his role is the one he claims, he could even be an important pro town person that Chaotix didn't want murdered quickly so gave more lives. I don't know, my gut says he's innocent.

That was an inspiring speech Elite Ferret... :bigcry:

Okay in my defence:

-I voted Tiberius because I can't abstain, I voted for him because he obviously weren't getting lynched, so my vote wouldn't of made a difference anyway.

-I have made no personal contact with Elite Ferret, he is defending me because this isn't my normal pattern as mafia. He partnered me in a previous game which ended in mafia victory, both of us did relatively well and I wasn't as sloppy as in this game. I was also the mafia in Fenring's Soviet Mafia and got to the end without exposing myself too much. I'll make this clear: Elite Ferret and me had no contact at all about this game

-If I were the mafia then I'd probably get the worst mafia award or something, because this definitely isn't what a mafia is suppose to do, get notiched by everyone else and getting him as much attention as possible. In all my previoius games I kept a low profile or at least acted normal. This really isn't how I'd play if I was the mafia.

-I already made my reveal. If the town don't believe they can test it out, get the vigilante to murder me or set the detective to investigate me. I confessed my role to the whole crew and now you all want to lynch me without giving me a trial. Tryout my ability first then lynch me if you still think I'm the mafia.

-The bit about being a noble townie and not afraid of being lynched. I thought the whole point of the game was to survive till the end, whether you're townie or not. I don't see the point of myself just saying 'go ahead and lynch me because I'm just a simple townie and wouldn't make a difference' would help you people to believe me.

-I don't have any particular suspect because it's only the first day of the game, the only person attracted enough attention on themselves was me (with the bad reveal) and Caius (being the last one to board the vessel). With private reveal banned I don't think anybody else have any idea who the mafia is either.

People have accused me of lying about my reveal, so I urge you to spare me of this day and let the detective and the vigilante on me, the detective will find me innocent or unclear, and the vigilante will blast off an extra life off me but that shouldn't do much harm. Let me live through today and I'll prove my innocence.

That one I don't buy. For reason stated below.

In all my previoius games I kept a low profile or at least acted normal. This really isn't how I'd play if I was the mafia.

Maybe so, but it isn't how you should play as town either. And if you've been mafia several times, you might try different strategies, so you can defend yourself by saying "I was mafia before and didn't act this way."

You're vouching for your own character, which is the same as giving your personal guarantee you're innocent in a game of lies. So I can't buy this argument.


I already made my reveal. If the town don't believe they can test it out, get the vigilante to murder me or set the detective to investigate me. I confessed my role to the whole crew and now you all want to lynch me without giving me a trial. Tryout my ability first then lynch me if you still think I'm the mafia.

This sounds more reasonable.


-The bit about being a noble townie and not afraid of being lynched. I thought the whole point of the game was to survive till the end, whether you're townie or not. I don't see the point of myself just saying 'go ahead and lynch me because I'm just a simple townie and wouldn't make a difference' would help you people to believe me.

Wrong. The point of the game for Town is to lynch the saboteur. It is not a victory condition if you survive the game unless you're scum. Are you scum, QJC?



-I don't have any particular suspect because it's only the first day of the game, the only person attracted enough attention on themselves was me (with the bad reveal) and Caius (being the last one to board the vessel). With private reveal banned I don't think anybody else have any idea who the mafia is either.

Reasonable. I'd agree with that.

I don't think setting the investigator on me is a good idea, for the following reasons:

First let me make this clear that I only saying this for the town's sake and not because I'm afraid of being found out or anything.

-Firstly I'm not sure if we even have an investigator



There will be 1, or possibly 2 saboteurs, 1 vigilante, and the rest are 'town'.
Private reveals are not allowed.
Abstaining from vote is not allowed.
Quoting pms, from me or anyone else, is not allowed.
The dead can not post.
Each phase will last 24 hours, if I am on time.
The game will start with a day phase.


-Secondly there will be a fair chance of him finding me to be 'unclear', and I doubt the town will take anything short of innocent to think me as innocent.

-Finally, and most importantly. If we do have an investigator then I'm positive there is only one investigator. Since private reveal isn't allowed then the only way he could pronouce my innocence is by saying: "Hello everyone, I'm ***** the detective, I've investigated QJC and found him innocent. Ta". And as we can expect, we'll find the detective dead the very next day. There is no way the detective can reveal whether I'm innocent or not without exposing himself, and therefore putting himself in the hands of the mafia, it isn't worth the investigator's life just to prove whether I'm innocent. So I think the best way to prove me not lying is to send the vigilante on me, the advantages of that are:

-It's still Night 1, the chance of killing the mafia is very, very low. The vigilante could only have a blind guess and the chances are that he'll end up killing an innocent townie because there are more townies than scums. So the vigilante might as well deal with me on Night 1, so that no innocent townie is put in danger.

-Vigilante will have a sure result, unlike investigators they won't have the chances of 'unclear' or as such. They will succed in attempting to kill me, they will NOT fail.

-The vigilante will be able to kill me without exposing himself, unlike the detective. All we need to see is Chaotix's right up to know what happend, but the detective have to publicly reveal himself, putting his live in danger.

-After surviving his attacks I will be left with 2 lifes, I think everyone should know that the host would not give the mafia an extra life because he would not need it, never mind 3 lives. So that would prove my innocence. None the less, if the town is still not statisified then they can set the vigilante on me two more times, though I doubt that would do much good for the town.

So I advise the investigator to drop his investigation and let the vigilante stretch his muscles before the real work needs to be done.

-Vigilante will have a sure result, unlike investigators they won't have the chances of 'unclear' or as such. They will succed in attempting to kill me, they will NOT fail.

What if you're right, and the vigilante can't kill you, but you can only be lynched? That still doesn't prove your innocence.




-The vigilante will be able to kill me without exposing himself, unlike the detective. All we need to see is Chaotix's right up to know what happend, but the detective have to publicly reveal himself, putting his live in danger.

I refer you to your own warning that it can't work. And I already showed you that the detective doesnt have to DO anything if youre innocent.


-After surviving his attacks I will be left with 2 lifes, I think everyone should know that the host would not give the mafia an extra life because he would not need it, never mind 3 lives. So that would prove my innocence. None the less, if the town is still not statisified then they can set the vigilante on me two more times, though I doubt that would do much good for the town.

That does NOT make any sense. You can suggest the mafia wouldnt need extra lives, but I contend that they are a great candidate for such a trait. ESPECIALLY IF THEY REVEAL IT ON TURN ONE.


So I advise the investigator to drop his investigation and let the vigilante stretch his muscles before the real work needs to be done.

Ignore him! This defense does not have the necessary underlying logic. He's not on the chopping block anyway, Caius is, and the investigation will see him innocent or guilty.

From what he's saying, I think he's guilty. We shall soon find out.

Yes, yes, I understand that standing up and speaking out will inevitably get my lynched or murdered. BUT! Town will do better if I still attempt to find the saboteur. Death comes to most townies... only the brave or those benefiting from pure, dumb luck will catch the saboteur.

It would be better if my reputation didn't precede me. But I have to remind everyone I don't get to choose my role. The scummiest M2TW player has to be townie most of the time.

I've spoken my touge dry and look at whats happening to me, you ungratefuly bunch.

That being said I definitely isn't scared of being murdered since I'm pratically invincible, and I have an idea to propose to the town:

During the daytime we will vote for a lynch, but we can also vote for whom the town wants to be investigated. Like this:

Investigation: Quintus. JC

At the end of the day the person with the most votes will be investigated by the detective (we'll need his co-operation). When the next days comes, if the person being investigated is the innocent then the detective will be silent and continue to be anonymous, and if he does then we will know that the person is innocent and we could cross him off our suspcion list. And if the person investigated is guilty then the detective will go public and we'll get rid of the scum, how about that?

your right...
anyway we have 15 minutes and it seems choatix may not make it intime, so we could be waiting a while...the murderer is among us but have no hard evidence to find them, even after this debate has concluded, who can really be suspected next? the descision will get harder and harder with undoubtedly townies being lynched in the process, perhaps we should think twice about who we lynch, caius' lack of contact is mysterious as was his late enterence, but with the little we no, he could have one of the most powerful abilities here, and there really is no way of knowing who is next, as when night falls, all of our votes and theorys could dissolve at our deaths, im still most suspicous of caius but im unsure of the consequences of lynching him...

Askthepizzaguy
09-01-2008, 17:35
I'd then suspect single posters... less talking means less suspicious activity. The more people talk, the more they tell us about their scummy selves.

People who are interrogated are likely to make mistakes that show their guilt. Liars have to maintain their identity while being grilled like a chicken, and that's difficult. Inexperienced mafioso will likely crack under the pressure.

To avoid this, mafia tends to be quiet. So I suspect that more than anything. Even so, it's also possible that they are spooked by the idea of being a "too quiet" suspect, so they start talking and say something incriminating.

The more people talk, the better it is for town.

EDIT: Shlin, we likely have at most 3 or 4 nights. You can't not post more than once in this game and get away with it. Also, non-voting is specifically prohibited. They need to send in their votes/kills ahead of time or risk WOG.

There's nothing we can do about turncoats, all we can do now is try to get the original mafias first.

There’s still plenty of chances for mistakes but there are a certain advantage to that:

Pro:
If the detective just simply investigate whomever he wants then only he knows who is innocent and who is not, but using my idea and with the co-operation of the detective the whole town will be able to know who is innocent if the detective keeps his silence. This way certain people will be cleared of suspicion.

Cons:
If the detective is murdered. And the mafia have no idea who the detective is, every time we ask for an investigation we will obviously get a silence because the detective is dead, so that doesn’t work out for the best.

If the detective refuses to co-operate, but then again that’s his problem.

Lynching:

The shadowy figure moved close enough for the heroes to see him. FuSoYa was the first to notice him.

"A fiend of Zemus! Slay him!" FuSoYa exclaimed. "Firaga!"

A huge jet of flame spewed forth from FuSoYa's fingertips, burning away the shadows that surrounded the figure. But when the dust cleared, there was no one standing in his place.

FuSoYa felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned instantly, shouting, "Thundaga!" and this time lightning shot out of his hands. But there was still no one there.

Suddenly a figure dropped from the ceiling, landing on the table the other heroes had only moments ago been sitting at. This time the figure discarded the smokescreen surrounding him, revealing Edge the Ninja underneath. "Hey, old man. Don't try that again, huh? You almost singed my hair there.

Ah, so its reasons you want, that I can give, plus plenty more.

So everyone is happy with the agreement then?

No way, we don't know if there is a detective, if no one says anything it could be because no one has the role of detective, meaning you wouldn't have been investigated. The more you post the more scummy you look to me, I say we lynch him next round.

As for Caius again I don't think the mafia could survive a lynch, that would be a little unfair, so I say he is innocent, for now.

shlin28

@EF-

I think Chaotix mentioned somewhere that there was an investigator, but I can't be sure. I'll go check the first several posts to be on the safe side.

@Shlin-

I agree... I think the odds are long Caius is the saboteur now. Let's focus on others. I'm not saying I trust him, but, we have to work this out logically, not randomly accuse and then stick with it in spite of evidence to the contrary. If he is still guilty it will have to be proven later, because we can't afford to keep lynching him.

@Aries-

I think this helps town. We might have killed one of the sabateurs, which is good. And instead, we have all townies still alive. Also good.

I think we can put Caius into the "safe" category, for now, and move on to the next suspects. Now we just wait to see who gets murdered.

And by the way, if I get murdered, my Finger of Suspicion on Elite Ferret is hereby reinstated. For reasons which I won't be able to tell you until the game is over.

Okay, so the detective role is unconfirmed, but the vigilante is, why don't you people just set both of them on me. We know one of these roles exists, possiblily both. So that would definitely prove me innocent.

So, I ask both the detective and the vigilante to have a go at me, then we can know for sure whether I'm innocent or not.

Also: Active town specials can be ordered during the Day as well as Night, but I believe all of them only work for one full Day/Night phase. Thus, if you want to use them, it would be better to do it earlier so I can implement the ability in more actions.

Some players may have abilities that could affect a lynch. If I say any more, I may reveal the actual nature of those abilities. It may not be as useful for all abilities to be given earlier, but there are definitely some abilities to which it will give an advantage. You'll probably realize it if your ability is one of those.

Man this is turning into another Midgard saga where you go away for a day and have 10 pages of posts to wade through.

This is game is crazy though.....

As I see things I am still scepitcal about QJC as is was a pretty strange move to reveal like that.

Because,
1. IF he is town then he should know he is expendable. As long as the town wins he wins.
2. Telling everyone to NOT LYNCH HIM because he states he is not Mafia usually just attracts attention. In this game you can not trust anyone (even ATPG) and saying hey guys don't lynch me as I am such and such and not mafia does not make sence. Especially when the town is well aware that the ONLY way for the town to get the mafia is through lynchings.
3. He states that he is not mafia and if you want then you can investigate him. If he is town he is asking for us to waste an investigation on him now. One that may have not been used on him if he had not revealed?
4. The abilty he claims seems to me to be a great one for absorbing mafia hits. Now they likely wont target him. Of course if he is mafia they wont likely target him either.
5. He has absorbed alot of the interest of the other players. Meanwhile the mafia may just be slipping in unawares. Loads of players have barely posted (myself included) and others just reiterated what others have said without rteally bandwagonning.

THEN to top it all off we nearly lynched Caius so that we wouldn't endanger QJC??? :wall:

So now to me there are no clearer targets although...

ATPG is very vociferous in accusing - deflecting attentions?
QJC is well... see above.
Warmaster and Tiberius have barely posted - are they trying to lurk?
EF and FH are pretty experianced and would not usually give off to many guilty vibes but may be enjoying all the confusion that QJC has created.

Oh and of course Caius may only be the serial killer.

Askthepizzaguy
09-02-2008, 08:31
ATPG is very vociferous in accusing - deflecting attentions?

I don't think this part makes any sense.

Someone always takes the lead in making accusations. That makes them suspicious? Very well. But aren't they just as suspicious as those who lurk or don't post? One might argue, El Diablo, that accusing someone who has been working very hard for town is very scummy behavior. But I'm not going to make such a ridiculous and unproductive, and entirely baseless accusation. Everyone is aware that blabbing, in the manner I have been doing, puts such a person in the harsh and revealing light of day. It puts my name in everyone's mind. Look every few posts, oh, it's askthepizzaguy. Now, when I think about suspects, I'm not thinking about shlin28, I'm thinking about askthepizzaguy. Kind of a dumb thing for mafia to do.

Now comes the baseless reverse psychology argument. "Well, what if you're doing that intentionally, to make yourself seem less suspicious?" Uh huh. So why have several people already pointed to my name when they say things like "anyone could be guilty, even ATPG". Yeah. So don't tell me this "tactic" works to make me look less suspicious. It makes me look more suspicious. It doesn't deflect attention, it invites it.

All that being said, It's more important for me to seek the saboteur than to deflect attention or criticism. So unless someone has something more substantive to work with, I suggest we focus on the more sneaky, lurking candidates, and also pay attention to what the regular posters do say.

EDIT: Bottom line is, eventually town is going to run out of suspects and say "hey, let's lynch the guy who posts the most."

Brilliant.

Still, I think Surviving night hits sounds more townie than surviving lynches.

shlin28
09-02-2008, 12:52
Er... why was my name mentioned in ATPG's long "rant"? :dizzy2:

Anyway, surviving night hits is a clear mafia sign, as mafia can only get night attacked by the serial killer/vig, so the host can afford to give this ability to him to balance it out against all of the uber town rules. Giving him the ability to survive lynches makes no sense, as it would destroy the only way a normal town can take down the mafia, making it very very very unbalanced.

You are most likely a bad dude. I simply don't know why you would reveal this to us, and in such a strange manner. And I don't see why any town character would need so many lives. It makes it near impossible for the saboteur to win.

He would have to target you, and only you, until you died. And then, he would still have to kill the rest of us. And by the way, if you are town, you just revealed to the saboteur that he has to target you every turn until you're dead, instead of that part being a nasty surprise for him.

Exactly whose side are you on anyway?

if you have 3 defense against lynch and murder i think choatix would hav made the game very unbalanced, i dont believe you, ill no doubt be seeing how others vote before i do this time, im confused of the situation, hopefully after the night phase there will be more for us to piece together, im thinking very much like el diablo, but perhaps in a more polite fashion, well the night phase should be ending very soon, so we'll see if anyone drops off, but just because quintus says hes protected from all murders it doesnt mean he is, i assume this is merely to avoid any attempts on his life, using reserve psychology by saying lynch me if you like, hes been protesting his innocence throughout, yet we cannot be blamed as he revealed his 'supposed identity' at his own bidding.

And while atpg is also a suspect as we all are, hes certainly contributing to the convosation very well rootingout a killer, or at least trying, we cannot critize him for that

I included them in the suspect list because I can't reveal their identities. So when you guys pick the wrong one, and begin to vote them, I will stop you. If I am still alive.

I'm sorry if I am being enigmatic but I cannot tip our hand yet. Town is winning, so far.


if we vote for the wrong one you will stop us? then tht person who helped you identity will be revealed, and you wanted to avoid that, if u stop us voting tht person they will b known, unless your casting a murder threat, but if we dont no which person your saying not to vote for, then how can we guarantee not voting for them? urrrgh headache coming unvote: quintus J.C

Just to remind you of what Aries said that private reveals, i.e. saying who your character is or what abilities you have, is forbidden.

I.e. saying "I saved you from murder" is probably against the rules as well. So whoever your claimed protector was is either lying or broke the rules.

True enough.

If I have a suspect I'm not going to tell everyone in town to vote for them, I'm just going to lay out a case. However, if town starts voting who I consider to be the wrong peeps, I'll think of something.

We can do public reveals, but for now I don't think anyone should. I think that will only help the saboteur.

ATPG - you are taking over the inquistion here, with no real truth to me.

You state that you survived an attack last night - correct?
This makes you non-mafia and pro town how?

The way I see it we have to take your word that you "survived" as there was no write up from our host stating that you miraculously survived. You just did. Therefore did a "protector" stop you from getting killed or did he stop you from killing as there was no mafia kill or serial killer death either. Only some strage thing that blew tiberius head off??

Was that a WOG - chaotix or what?

I just read into Chaotix report that something stopped a kill last night that was not supposed to happen. Now someone protecting the mafia target would be a good thing for the game yes? The protector protecting the mafia himself would not.

No I am not accusing as I only a have a feeling and my feeling usually are wrong. Hell I am always 99% sure that FH is mafia (my mafia-senses are poor at best) but wanting the entire town to follow blindly is a big ask.

Now I am not in your little "circle if trust" and to be honest I am not sure I want to be. You ask us to now UNVOTE QJC because he cool now when yesterday he was eveil incarnate. The only thing that makes sence to me is that QJC sent you a message saying I saved you or I protected you last night. Nothing else has happened on these boards to prove his innocence.

So I would like to know HOW you know you were saved and if it was by QJC who has 9 lives and can talk to the animals and walk on water I would like to inform the mafia they are screwed.

Come on 3 lives for this 3 lives for that and maybe a protector? I doubt the game is that unbalanced and therefore I am dubious on QJC. No "investigator" has come forward so why is he now 99% innocent?

However, as they are all sitting down, Tiberius claims that he has a terrible headache. Several minutes into the meal, Tiberius starts screaming in pain. Then, quite suddenly, his head explodes, splattering blood and brains into everyone's porridge.

That's the whole point. If the investigator comes forward it would mean I'm guilty. If the detective say I'm innocent then he would have to reveal himself and leave him at the mercy of the mafia. By being quiet he has just revealed his result last night to be either 'unclear' or 'innocent'. Not guilty, because if he finds me so then he'd come forward and stop this farce.

First of all, thank you El Diablo for putting your thinking cap on and trying to solve this yourself.
:thumbsup:

Also I commend you for remaining vigilant and not blindly trusting everything I say. Point by point rebuttal, my friend:


ATPG - you are taking over the inquistion here, with no real truth to me.

It's true, you have no way of knowing I'm telling you the truth. In a turn or two, I will have a way of letting EVERYONE know what I know, and why.

If you're still not convinced, and you shouldn't be, lynch me before the game ends. Just give me more time to do town's work.


You state that you survived an attack last night - correct?
This makes you non-mafia and pro town how?

It doesn't, and I don't mean to suggest that it does. I explained that the host did reveal I was attacked, but not by who. Again, you only have my word to go on because I won't reveal the rest until I am sure town is going to win if I do. Sorry, this is more important than my life.


The way I see it we have to take your word that you "survived" as there was no write up from our host stating that you miraculously survived. You just did. Therefore did a "protector" stop you from getting killed or did he stop you from killing as there was no mafia kill or serial killer death either. Only some strage thing that blew tiberius head off??

I believe Tiberius was WOG'ed.

The reason there was no murder was because the murderer failed. All I have is Chaotix's PM to go on and I can't copy that here, as its against the rules. Sorry!


I just read into Chaotix report that something stopped a kill last night that was not supposed to happen. Now someone protecting the mafia target would be a good thing for the game yes? The protector protecting the mafia himself would not.

I have no idea why Chaotix worded things the way he did, and I have no idea why there wasn't a vigilante killing either. By everything I know, someone should have died besides the WOG character.

I am missing information as well, I can't speak to precisely what happened. I only have a little bit that I am sure of, and I'm revealing most of that in case I die.


No I am not accusing as I only a have a feeling and my feeling usually are wrong. Hell I am always 99% sure that FH is mafia (my mafia-senses are poor at best) but wanting the entire town to follow blindly is a big ask.

I know. Believe me, I know.

You don't have to listen to a word I say, in fact I encourage you to figure it out on your own. What if I am wrong? Don't put all your eggs in one basket. But if I survive the next night or so I will do a public reveal and I won't protest if anyone wants to lynch me.

I will have done my duty for town. I don't fear death.


Now I am not in your little "circle if trust" and to be honest I am not sure I want to be. You ask us to now UNVOTE QJC because he cool now when yesterday he was eveil incarnate. The only thing that makes sence to me is that QJC sent you a message saying I saved you or I protected you last night. Nothing else has happened on these boards to prove his innocence.

I can't reveal how, but there are other options besides those that you're missing, and it's not because I'm mafia. Keep thinking...

As for the rest of things...

Someone has been spreading misinformation. I'm trying to determine who and why.

Actually I think ATPG being attacked does prove him innocent, in the write up it said that Zemus did not have the mafia kill anyone, but there was still a kill, the vigilante I assume. IF ATPG was attacked, though no one can no for sure, usually a host would have done a write up of that but Chaotix may do things differently, that means it was the mafia who tried to kill him, seeing as I am fairly certain that there is only one mafia, that means that ATPG is not mafia. Of course that assumes that he was telling the truth, seeing as it wasn't mentioned in the write up he could be making this up to make himself look innocent before moving on to kill us tomorrow, and hopefully not be a lynch target. I'm gonna trust him for now though.

Tiberius of the Drake- Will of Zemus

Interesting...No? Perhaps Tiberius was mafia?

Possible, but do mafia ever get WOGed? I suppose they do - I have never seen in (in my almost limitless experiance of about 6 mafia games) it happen.

HOWEVER-

If it is true though then it puts a lot of doubt on ATPG claim that he survived an attack. If tiberius tried to kill ATPG he would not have gotten WOG'ed would he? If he had done nothing (thus deserving a WOG) ATPG would not have "survived".

I am getting 1+1=3 at the moment.....


You suspect Faction Heir, why?

Standard joke (well for me at least) no matter how innocent FH is I always get this inkling that he is scum. I do not think he is in this game (anymore than normal :laugh4:) but something about his posting style makes me second guess him evertime....

I trust Askthepizzaguy's reveal, he's not lying about being attacked. But that doesn't mean his attacked by the vigilante or something, though I doubt the vigilante would target him in the first round, so it's probably the mafia.

If there has been rule breakage here we will end up with more WOG's and that is what lost us the proscriptions mafia.

Tiberius may not have even been mafia he may have got WOG'ed for cheating (although I doubt it as Chaotix would probably have given the rest of us a stern talking to and a slap on the wrist.

What ever I don't like this not knowing and as such I will have to vote as my mind has set.

Vote QJC

Too many if's, what's but's and maybe's. If that makes me a target for you ATPG then fine - You yourself have given us three rounds to find the mafia and lynch him. That is not withstanding a rash of possible cheating WOG's that will give us less time.

if you have 3 defense against lynch and murder i think choatix would hav made the game very unbalanced, i dont believe you, ill no doubt be seeing how others vote before i do this time, im confused of the situation, hopefully after the night phase there will be more for us to piece together, im thinking very much like el diablo, but perhaps in a more polite fashion, well the night phase should be ending very soon, so we'll see if anyone drops off, but just because quintus says hes protected from all murders it doesnt mean he is, i assume this is merely to avoid any attempts on his life, using reserve psychology by saying lynch me if you like, hes been protesting his innocence throughout, yet we cannot be blamed as he revealed his 'supposed identity' at his own bidding.

And while atpg is also a suspect as we all are, hes certainly contributing to the convosation very well rootingout a killer, or at least trying, we cannot critize him for that
by my count 21 minutes till choatix writes the whats happened!, and i hope hes on time lols


Hmmm... Vote: Aries777777.


Reason: He seems to be attempting to gain my favor, and was the last one to post in the long empty space between my post and Chaotix's write-up. He's also on my list of suspects.

I think the saboteur would be trying to be low-key, and this post is fairly reasonable and low-key. Agreeing with the main prosecutor also a sign of attempting to lay low.

I appreciate your support, Aries, but you do know that it definitley appears in your last few sentences that you're trying to gain my favor. That's scum-city to me. It's one of the reasons I'm not all over El Diablo. Diablo is standing up to me.

So I've been thinking that if there are 2 people who can survive 3 lynches/night actions, the only way this game would be balanced is either if:

1. The main killer ignores that limitation
2. The main killer can convert people to his side
3. One of the two is mafia to balance things out

The question is which one of these is true.

no matter how innocent FH is I always get this inkling that he is scum

FoS FH

For knowing too much... :laugh4:

Okay just kidding.

But about what you are saying.
The main killer is the mafia I take it?
That leaves the possibility of a Vigilante and/or a serial killer?

Thus the mafia maybe able to take out QJC (with his claimed immunity) with one hit but the others will take 3 attempts? Possible I suppose.

Converting to your side is like ATPG's interrogation of QJC yesterday followed by being bestest of buddies today?

One is mafia? Like perhaps QJC?

Vote Stays.

Okay. There seems to be a lot of confusion, and hopefully, I can sort most of it out. I mean, some of the confusion is good for the game, but the rest of it is more of a detriment. Anyway, here I go:

1- The Death of Tiberius:

This was indeed a WoG. I thought it would be kind of obvious when I said WoZ- It's the same thing, except with Zemus instead of God/gods. Tiberius was WoG'ed.

2. Killings and Whatnot:

I will say this now, and leave you to interpret it as you will. I have posted and will post a write-up when there is any attempt on a player's life. Whether they are killed or not, there will be a write up. Case-in-point: Caius's lynching. If there is no kill or attempt at it, there is no write-up.

3. Askthepizzaguy and his "friends":

I have talked to Askthepizzaguy about his talks with certain other players. If ATPG is telling the truth to me, (and he should have no reason not to. I and others know him to be a very good sport.) then there was no foul play involved in this, and therefore there won't be any kind of a penalty or WoG.

4. Number of Mafia Killers:

I'm not sure if I made this clear before. I thought I did. There is at least one but no more than two mafia. Period. There might be one, and there might be two. You won't know until you've killed all of them.

And finally, a tally, for everyone's convenience:

Quintus- 2 (Aries, El D.)
Caius- 2 (Caius, WH)
WH- 1 (FH)
Aries- 1 (ATPG)

...
I'm inclined to think that there's really 1 mafia at the start.
More so, because we started with only 10 people (prior to Caius joining).

a possible 2nd mafioso could appear if:

a) a mafia could convert a certain player (I think this is what FH speculated);
b) a certain role has the choice to pick a side during the game
c) some event can cause a certain role to become 'rogue'

At the moment, I'm trying out b)~:handball:
For b) to work, that person's ability should be handy to the mafia, if s/he ever switches side. This should rule out any detective-type and protection-type roles.
Quintus' ability, the only ability we probably know of, is one that could fit with the mafia. (we're still unsure about the details on Caius' ability)
Though that does not incriminate Quintus nor prove that he can actually switch allegiance, it may (or may not) explain his Rnd 1 act.

Or perhaps it's actually d) way off the mark or that i'm plain 'Wrong!' :stupido2:

The mafia cannot survive multiple lynches because it would give the town no chance of winning. Suppose I'm able to survive 3 lynches, surely that makes me one of you. If you want prove then lynch me already! stop this indeciveness.

And thus, perhaps why you were not lynched Rnd 1 and not running away with most votes this round either. Some didn't think you were guilty from the start, while a few others seem to have opened up to the notion that you are likely pro-town. I, myself, am still looking for an angle that might connect you to being a mafia, but so far has not produced anything worth salt

The indecisiveness, i think, comes from: 'if it's probably not Quintus, who's the next likely to be mafia?'
That, plus the lack of any leads (the story so far, no deaths only a WoG, has not given the town anything to work with at all) This feels like 'Rnd 1 - Part 2,' in my opinion, and likely the person to be lynched would be due to a very weak case. (may explain Caius' vote)

:edit: Now, if you really like to have all doubts against you cleared, i'll break the tie for you, even if others disagree and think it's a waste of a lynch

There was quite a few info about my character. "You're FuSoYa, the guardian of the Lunarians in their near-eternal slumber and all that. Because of the strong Lunarian blood flowing in your veins, you have the ability to survive 3 attacks on your person blah, blah blah. Your objective is to root out and defeat the one(s) being controlled by Zemus before he kills all of you."

im surprised i wasnt brought ot attention sooner! townies dont fear death, im not at all trying reserve psychology, but killing another innocence wont help will it? if you want to lynch me go ahead, but someone may die in the process, other than me...

hmmm i to wonder what there talking about (townie groups? not sure about tht), but our well, will choatix hurry up with my lynch? then once they've wasted a townies chances the thugs can deplete the rest of us

edit: oh yh its 6 hours extended

anyways, once atpg has captured your minds i can do nothing about it, i notice as soon as he votes for me after me defending him, you all follow by example, instead of using your own minds for once! and your hope that i am mafia atpg...well you may be sorely dissapointed there...but i guess your job includes killing the good ones, i would make a public reveal if you wanted but feel no need to yet

Askthepizzaguy
09-03-2008, 18:52
Aries, feel free to make a public reveal.

If you're about to be lynched it might help us know more about how chaotix might have set up the game. Let's say you had an ability that enabled you to block another person's special. Letting us know that will help us narrow down what abilities you have left.

As a loyal townie, we welcome any information you can offer. As scum, you're dead anyway so it won't matter.

Sorry, Aries, based on your own actions and testimony you are damning yourself and making yourself look even more suspicious. You should be trying to cooperate with town, but you're not. Even before you're being lynched you won't help us.

I know at some point I will be dead, but town will win. Why don't you have the same attitude? If we win, you win.

If you are innocent, you should do a public reveal while you still can.
