The rusty vessel seemed to be jumping up and down. Most passengers were seasick and begged the gods to end their suffering.
Land came in sight. The passengers tried to take a look at the abandoned island. The few lucky enough not to be seasick, grabbed their camera's and started to take pictures.
Suddenly the boat stopped; about 500 meters of water seperated the boat from the island.
The captain, an older man with an impressive scar on his left cheek and with more rotten than healthy teeth in his mouth yelled at his passengers:
"Out! Get out, now!"
The passengers were befuddled. Some thought the captain was joking and started to laugh.
With a hard look on his face, the captain picked up his shotgun.
"Out of this boat. You got what you payed for: an Island. Abandoned. And it's exclusive, since nobody else is here. Now, jump and start swimming, it's only 500 meters."
The tourists stared at their captain, they couldn't believe what they heard.
Having lost his patience, the captain aimed the shotgun just slightly above the heads of the tourists and fired as shot. It sounded like a canon.
One of his two crewmen suddenly had a machine gun in his hands and it started to burst out bullets.
Screaming and yelling, the tourists jumped into the water, most not even bothering to take their luggage with them and started to swim.
The machine gun stopped and they could hear the Captain yelling: "You payed for 4 weeks; we'll pick you up in five! That's right, you get an extra week, free of charge to make up for the inconvenience of the boat trip."
***
Mikhail had a difficult time not to burst out in laughter. This was not exactly what he expected, but boy, this was convenient!
"Find the stash. Leave no witnesses," was what the order of Vladimir came down to.
One look at Dimitri thaught him that he was having the same thoughts.
This one was going to be easy. Taking out these idiots wouldn't take too long and there would be plenty of time to go looking around the Island.
And the guys on of that rusty boat seemed like the perfect types to not ask questions in return for some hard cash.
***
"Blood, sweet blood. A bloodbath. Crushing skulls. Pain. Screaming! Death and pain! WAHAHAHA!"
"Richie, SHUT UP NOW!"
Oliver ignored the strange looks from the man swimming next to him.

Welcome to my latest large mafia game, "The Island" :bow:
A bloodbath on a tropical Island :holiday: Everything you ever wished for :2thumbsup:
Rules:
Basic mafia rules
There are three sides in this game: the tourists (townies), the serial killer (SK) and the mafia.
The tourists are the innocent people and they have to lynch the mafiosi and the SK during the day. The mafiosi and the SK each have to kill one tourist each night (in this game, the mafia has one kill each night, regardless of with how many they are. This means that if one mafioso is lynched, the mafia will still have the ability to kill one players each night; the SK has one kill each night. If he dies, then obviously, he will no longer be able to kill). When all mafiosi and the SK are lynched, the tourist win. When all tourist are dead, the tourists lose and either the mafia or the SK will have won.
Each day or night phase will last approximately 24 hours. This may be extended or shortened due to real life circumstances of the host (that's me).
The tourists have to decide during the day by voting who will get lynched. The person with the most votes, will be lynched.
Votes have to be made like this:
Vote : Andres
When you want to switch your vote, you have to do it like this:
Unvote : Andres ; Vote : Ser Clegane
Please remember to BOLD YOUR VOTES! UNBOLDED VOTES WILL NOT BE COUNTED! No exceptions will be made. Also, REMEMBER TO UNVOTE BEFORE SWITCHING YOUR VOTE; if you forget to unvote, your vote switch will be ignored. DO NOT EDIT YOUR POST TO ALTER YOUR VOTE. IF YOU ALTER YOUR VOTE, YOU NEED TO MAKE A NEW POST.
Notes:
* You're allowed to vote "abstain"; voting "no lynch" will be counted as an abstain vote.
* When a tie is reached at the end of the day, the game host will randomly (as in "completely at random") lynch one of the players in the tie. In short: there will always be a lynch at the end of the day phase.
* regardless of your role, you are supposed to be active in the thread. Severe inactivity (no strict rule, but you can take not posting for 6 RL days in a row as a basic rule) will be dealt with by WoG ("Wrath of God") which basically means that you'll be killed by the host in a most humiliating way.
* If you can no longer play for whatever reason, please inform the host and he'll try to find a replacement. If no replacement can be found, you will be written out of play (honorable suicide).
* Roles of the dead will not be revealed.
* The dead players can keep playing, but they will no longer have a vote nor any night abilities.
Roles - setup:
- 30 players max
- 2 mafia, one kill each night, not immune for night kills
- 1 SK, one kill each night, immune for night kills.
- 27 tourists
Special rules.
None.

Time for a vacation!
Will there be anonymous accounts?
I think I'm going to skip the psychiatrist role; I would only implement if for story purposes, but in retrospect, the game doesn't really need it.
I'd like to have some feedback:
- 2 or 3 mafiosi, 2 kills each night (depending on number of sign-ups (2 if sign-ups are equal to or lower than 20; 3 if sign-ups reach 30); kills drop to 1 when a mafioso dies/when 2 mafiosi died;
- 1 serial killer, immune for night kills; 1 kill each night;
Is this balanced enough? Or should I toss in a detective, a doctor or both a detective and a doctor? Personally, I'm thinking perhaps adding 2 doctors to balance it; I don't really like detective roles. I could of course just let the serial killer out and keep it vanilla with 2 or 3 mafiosi with two kills each night, period, but there's something irresistable about a serial killer on an island.
Serial Killer. :sweetheart:
I like the idea.
Setting : an unknown tropical Island.
Australia? :laugh4:
I would say no detective (nasty things) And maybe two doctors, yeah.
I'm in, but I liked the psychiatrist :P
Well, the game is still in development, so if enough people would like the psychiatrist role in the game, I'll just keep the original set-up.
I like the psychiartrist as well.

I like the NK immune SK, dislike the psychiatrist, and would offer you this balancing adjustment:
1 of the mafiosi can select another mafiosi besides himself to protect from harm every night, to give the mafia a better shot at surviving the SK.
Should that mafioso die, they're out of luck. For your consideration.
I'd join because your games have always been rich and engaging regardless of how vanilla they are. I think people forget that game hosts tend to make vanilla games the most memorable ones in a given year because of the story quality and atmosphere. Real "mafia" and not all deductive work and night action coordination.
I think I'm going to settle for this setup:
- 30 players max
- 2 mafia, one kill each night, not immune for night kills
- 1 SK, one kill each night, immune for night kills.
- 27 townies
- That makes 3 scumbags on 30 players.
- SK is alone, it's a hard role, for balance purposes he's immune for night kill;
- Mafia is with two, still hard, but less hard than SK, so not immune for night kill - the SK being immune for NK also means the mafia is able to detect him.
I like the Capo director role; perhaps I should add that in for flavour, but with no protection during night for the Director, just for fun.
I think the game is hard enough as it is for both scum teams like that, a psychiatrist would unbalance it too much in favour of town imo.
The psychiatrist was for story purposes, but I think I can find a way to bring in a psychiatrist into the story...
If I were you, I would make it 3 mafia with one kill... I would think it is more balanced

The tourists finally made it all to the beach.
They were all exhausted. Most of them only had the clothers they were wearing. Others did have some of their luggage, but everything was all soaked through; needless to say, cell phones and anything else that could be used as a means to communicate with the outisde world, was broken.
Some immediately started looking for food. Others looked for shelter. Some tourists tried to organise themselves. There was laughter here and there. Most complained, waved their fists and pledged that they would sue this company and bring it to justice.
But underneath that façade, there was a sense of despair around the tourists and all of them wondered secretly how they would survive all these weeks on this Island that did not seem to have any facilities whatsoever...
The night fell and eventually, the tourists went to sleep...

And... kick off!
The game has officially started. We start the game with a night phase; night will last for +/- 24 hours. PM's please.

Well, the rules don't strictly say you have to lynch a player, so you can lynch a non player, if you want.
Keep in mind though that the scummies need to kill players. And luckily so, oherwise this could be the longest mafia ever if players decide to take out the 20.000 something not playing Orgahs first...

Demonstrates a lack of nervousness or concern for his victory/survival as mafia, therefore people think that makes him townie.
Since he's got a solid record of being townie every time he does this, it's not an indicator. You'll have to find some other indicator of him being a scumbag.
I'm just saying that Tiaexz is townie and will probably be killed tonight. I haven't said a word about my own role.
This on the other hand feels like pretense to be "townie". Act like you're trying to figure out who is townie, and you will be seen as a contributing and productive member of the team.

The Island - Night 1 - Conclusion
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Tropicalisland.jpg
Dimitri grinned at Mikhail. Finding those shovels in that cave simply had to mean something good!
They slowly sneaked up on the tourist who was sitting on the beach, watching the waves roll.
While he was thinking about home and how stupid he had been falling for that advertisement, Sasaki Kojiro didn't hear the notorious Russian hitmen coming near. A hard blow on the back of his head rendered him unconscious.
Dimitri grabbed Sasaki's feet while Mikhial grabbed him under his arms. The mafiosi carried the body a bit futher, to a nearby tree.
Half an hour later, Sasaki started shaking his head. He tried to move, but something stopped him in his movements. It was a dark night and he didn't see a thing. The only thing his senses registered was the sound of shoveling and dirt falling on him. For a moment, the clouds allowed the moon to shine over the Island. He tried to see the face of the man standing to the right, but failed to notice the other man throwing another load of dirt, this time right in his face. Three or four more loads of dirt and Sasaki could no longer breathe. He tried to yell, but the dirt found its' way into his throat.
Sasaki slowly suffocated to death...
***
The leaves of the palm trees were excellent to make it look as if he had a mane. Richie laughed quietly while he looked at the rope he found on the beach.
Suddenly, he saw one of the tourists passing by, probably looking for a tree. He decided to follow him.
The man indeed walked over to a tree, but he accidentally tripped over something.
Richie used the opportunity to jump on Death is yonder. He managed to get the rope around DiY's neck and started to strangle him. The struggle didn't take too long and soon, DiY stopped moving.
The rope still around DiY's neck, Richie swung the other end of it around a branch and pulled DiY up.
Looking at the hanging body, Richie started to laugh and dance hysterically, constantly yelling "I shall be known as a a mercenary, like a Karian. I shall be known as a a mercenary, like a Karian. I shall be known as a a mercenary, like a Karian. I shall be known as a a mercenary, like a Karian. I shall be known as a..."
***
The Island - Day 1
The tourists couldn't stop staring at the body of Death is yonder hanging on the tree. They were in complete disbelief. A few of them couldn't help themselves and threw up whatever was still in their stomach.
One of them wanted to walk over to the body, but he accidentally tripped over something sticking out of the sand.
"That looks like a foot or somehing!"
One of the tourists started giggling while another one yelled "shut up!"
Four or five tourists immediately started to dig up Sasaki Kojiro's corpse.
"There's a murderer among us!"
"We need to find him before he kills us all!"
The tourists started to look at each other, angry and distrustfull.
"Let's not jump to conclusions too fast," one of them said. "We can't start killing each other just like that, we need to organise ourselves!"
"Fine," another tourist said, "let the majority decide. Whoever gets the most votes will be executed."
"But, but, but... I'm against the death penalty! It's cruel. It's inhumane! What if we kill an innocent?"
"They were innocent too!" several tourists yelled.
The defender of human rights murmured a silent "ok, ok, as long as it isn't me" and the tourists started the procedure.

If it is made clear there will be a lynch of an inactive each day, then no one will have to discuss much, there will be a lot of bandwagons, and we wont be providing the scum many opportunities to reveal themselves. Instead, we should apply pressure on a lot of people, and find a happy medium between lynching inactives and non-inactives without becoming predictable.

The Island - Day 1 - Conclusion
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Tropicalisland.jpg
The tourists kept debating fiercely. Accusations were thrown around seemingly ad random. Most tourists seemed to be more concerned about not being the one to get lynched than actually finding the ones responsible for the killing.
In the end, they chose to execute two tourists! Skooma addict seemed an obvious choice. Somebody who was addicted to illegal substances was obviously a possible killer. The addicts' defense that Skooma didn't exist and was just some sort of drugs that only existed in the fantasy of some creators of a popular video game didn't help. In fact, it even made him more suspicious. Surely, only a real drugs addict could invent such a story!
The other one they wished to execute only had himself to blame. An Island. No food at all. And then you run around with a name like Beefy187? Allthough it had only been a day, most tourists were already starving. Who wouldn't want to eat 187 beef steaks after a day of hunger and emotions?
Suddenly, the human rights watcher started to wave his finger around and yelled that only one person should be executed. This whole procedure was already against all possible human rights and...
"Fine!" Skooma Addict said. "If we're going to lynch only one person, then I suggest we only kill Beefy187."
Suddenly, the peaceful tourist became very pale. Surely, this wasn't what he meant by...
Beefy187's thought process was interupted by the teeth of 29 humans sinking into his flesh...

The Island - Night 2 - Conclusion
https://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t2/AndresTheCunning/Tropicalisland.jpg
The lonely man on the beach was sitting next to a small campfire. With a big smile on his face, he was looking at a piece of human flesh. While the other tourists had been eating the late Beefy187 raw, he had seen this excellent piece of meat a few feet further. The others ignored this excellent Beefy steak, and so, he had taken it, unnoticed.
He pierced a pointy stick through the flesh and held it above the campfire.
Suddenly, he heard a man coughing. Askthepizzaguy quickly turned around, which saved his life, as his attacker, mislead by the movement, swung a heavy piece of wood and hit air where, only a split of a second before, Pizza's head had been.
His attacker, his face hidden in shadows, looked at Pizza and said:
"I long for a fight with you, just as a thirsty man longs for water."
Askthepizzaguy froze at the sound of the voice of his attacker, a voice which resembled the sound of rotten bones falling on a concrete floor.
His attacker laughed softly.
"But not tonight, Gorbachev."
The attacker turned around and ran away.
Still surprised at his survival, Pizza picked up the pointy stick with the beef and held it back over the campfire, still trembling and not realy sure about what just happened...
***
Mikhail looked at the man sitting on the beach, seemingly enjoying a late night dinner.
Carrying his knife, the only weapon he managed to get here, he sneaked up on Askthepizzaguy.
Pizza was enjoying his beefy so much, that he didn't hear the professional killer coming near.
Mikhail suddenly grabbed Pizza, and he cut his mouth open, right through his cheeks, to his ears, cutting his mouth into a very big grin. Before Pizza realized what was happening, the professional killer was already busy cutting out his tongue. He turned Pizza around and shoved his tongue back into his throat, causing him to choke to death, the arm of his killer to the elbow in his mouth.
***
Hysterically laughing, Richie was running under the palm trees, into the jungle that was the heart of the Island.
Suddenly, he stumbled upon Bow-wow-wow. He didn't slow down, but instead ran even faster, planting his elbow into Bow-wow-wows' stomach upon impact.
The blow caused Bow-wow-wow to throw up his evening meal.
Quickly grabbing a heavy piece of wood, Richie started hitting Bow-wow-wow all over his body, breaking several bones. Once he was sure Bow-wow-wow couldn't defend himself anymore, he stopped.
With a sadistic smile on his face, he walked over to the moaning Bow-wow-wow, examined his body and started to push and move the fractured bones, causing him enormous pain. As Bow-wow-wow's scream of aggony grew louder and louder, Richie laughed more and more hysterically, until Bow-wow-wow finally passed out.
Disappointed, Richie stood up, grabbed a big rock and used it to break Bow-wow-wow's skull open. He hit it several times, until the brains were splattered all over the place.
***
The Island - Day 2
The tourists looked at the mutilated bodies.
It seemed like they didn't find the person or persons responsible for the killings yet.
"Well, at least they did the butchering for us already. Why not having a barbecue while we gather? That pizza dude surely must taste delicious when barbecued properly."
Most tourists nodded in agreement and they combined a nice and cozy barbecue on a sunny beach with finding out who the killers were.

right: As far as I understand then we are dealing with a vanilla game. I did forget that when I first posted, because there seemed to be 3 attacks this night. This is what Cahoma comments on.

I do however not see the purpose of analysing on something that can not get us any closer to anything at this point. As far as I see then we have observed 3 attackers and that's it. We need more samples to understand the nature of these attacks. That is what I mean when I say that there is no point in addressing this.
(please correct me on this if my understanding of the game concept is wrong)
edit: it hits me that I never got around reading the first night phase writeup. Not that it is that important, as this discussion is a bit off the road I think (if it continues that is, a need for clarification is always fine :) )

*placeholder for a tally*
This game is a vanilla game and all roles are accounted for in the rules. There are no secret roles or hidden surprises whatsoever.
The write-ups are just that: write-ups. I also like players being creative with their orders and if I can make a story around creative orders, I will.

Well, he wasn't really analysing it, he was just expressing surprise and confusion over
Why were there two different attacks on Pizza? A serial killer AND mafia?
the 'doubled' attack on Pizza.
EDIT: Host's confirmation makes the ruminations below irrelevant.
But now I have to point out that, according to the posted rules, there are only 2 kills per night - Mafia and SK.
For this to have been a third attacker (the one who attacked Pizza), would require the introduction of a host of new mechanics: a third killer, or a second Mafia kill, that the agent of which isn't required to use nightly, and the possibility of attack failure.
Maybe we could say that the other mafioso, Dmitri, who was missing from the Mafia kill writeup this time, is Pizza's attacker, but it would mean the host has kept quite a fee things hidden from us. Also, why in the world would Mafia use two kills on the same person? This ain't Capo, boys.

There are alot of comments about bandwaggoning and the whole thread does bear review, as I am still unsure as to why Sasaki is convinced about Ishmaels guilt, though I'm assuming Ishmaels neck is currently on the line because people are following Sasaki's capitalised orders.
I'm not sure why he's certain of my guilt either. I'm going to have to do something I don't like here - I don't really think that Skooma Addict is scum, but I'm 100% certain that I'm not scum, so statistically my best move here is to unvote, vote: Skooma Addict.

10-28-2011, 09:01
Well. Looking back through the thread, you've posted more than anyone, every post you've made has been 'jokey' in some way, and your responses to accusation has been quite deliberately nonchalant, so - yeah - that plus your self-preservation vote on Skooma make you look scummier than anyone else at present.
I've read the N2 write-up a few times now: The writing style seems to change throughout, particularly the hit on 'Pizza that actually succeeds, but I don't know anyone's style on the forum yet so... that evidence is better left to a veteran to examine.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
LazyMcCrow
10-28-2011, 09:02
@Sasaki
1) Why Ishmael?
2) Where is this small game you're sposed to be running right now?
LazyMcCrow, frankly I have become more nonchalant since Capo. I used to think of mafia games these size as being very big and terrifying, but in comparison to Capo it's more of a relaxing break. I'm not saying this to diminish the game at all Andres - this is just as fun, and your write-up's have been great, but it's a lot less involved than Capo, and allows me to sit back and relax a bit more.
EDIT: Sasaki's (meant to be) running a small game? Where? I crave more mafia! :beam:

These votes so far about supposed 'tells' in posts all seem a little tenuous to me. (What is 'PIS' plz?)

Perfect information syndrome.
It basically means that scum will know more about what is going on, than what the town knows, and that can result in a scum revealing perfect knowledge/guess, that a town should not be able to make with the available public information.

thanks for the explanation.
I've read the thread again and Ishmael does indeed seem to pong the most - if your nochalance turns out to be genuine, I apologise in advance.
vote: Ishmael
I accept your apology in advance. One of these days, people will learn to recognise my style and stop lynching me for it. One of these days....

Scum. Vote: Cahoma.. it's always the scum that makes these kinds of statements
Haha, good one.
True, but they never harmed it either. Lynching an inactive is essentially wasting a lynch, unless somebody that has a different take on things wishes to enlighten me.
Oh they've harmed it a lot. Go and see Mafia X. And even if the lurkers aren't scum, the lurking itself warrants a lynch. Death to lurkers!
Anyway, back to this game. Sasaki, could you please provide some reasoning. Even if you're dead you can say more than "Kill Ishmael".
Well guys, I'm about to go to bed and I expect I'll be dead in the morning, so I just have some final words for you:

That was pretty grim wasn't it - I think Ishmael was trying to put us off lynching him. For the record, I am not at all keen on the idea of eating anyone else at all. I don't think we really need to worry about it seriously until we run out of beefy & pizza.

b) Sasaki Kojiro - who is dead - told us too. Repeatedly.

Fixed that for ya :wink:
Now, listen, I have as much respect for Sasaki's skills and status as a Gameroom legend as everyone else but just saying "kill that guy" won't do it. Even Sasaki will have to put some more effort into this.

This seems like a lousy reason to vote for God Emperor. There's no point in discussing the setting as we know it already. That and God Emperor didn't even display "Public information syndrome" yet alone "Perfect information syndrome".:clown:
Vote: LazyMcCrow No need to bandwagon when there is no good reason for the bandwagon.

Yes, now we well know that there is nothing to discuss, but at the moment of God Emperors post it was not evident. Therefore, I still think his post is scummy.
I also never implied that he was displaying 'PIS'. I was just saying that his behavior lessens chance that someone else would display it

Why should he? He is dead and therefore: Not scum. I asked him to elaborate myself already today with no response as yet, but I've got no problem with a player who has been killed shifting the onus of uncovering the killers identities onto the players who remain alive! If he's good enough to point the finger at who he thinks it is that's a bonus in my book.
Its entirely possible that the mafia and SK are lurking right now, but I'm of the opinion that a lynch needs to be made, and that there are various posts that Ishmael has made that seem more than a tad suspicious
" Visor can always get away with it somehow. In Capo he was making the most outrageously scummy comments, yet nobody suspected him. I really wish I had his abilities. "
and
" I think edse just has a bit to learn about acting innocent. It's necessary to do so all the time, even when you're a townie (especially when you're a townie); a lesson I learnt the hard way. :no: "
Those are two that stuck out for me. There are plenty more.
Vote: LazyMcCrow No need to bandwagon when there is no good reason for the bandwagon.
I just voted for the person I think is most likely to be scum. Seems a better reason than just hitting random.org. - bandwagon or not.
I like LazyMcCrow's view. I'd forgotten that Ishmael was the one who made that Visorlash comment. Definitely a possibly throw suspicion to make an easy target down the line. It's almost like "I'm going to compliment you, but get you lynched for it" type of thing.
Also, I'm willing to give Sasaki's vision a shot.
Vote: Ishmael

Yeah. Both sound very townie to me. He realized he didn't play the game to the best, but it's how he plays. He's not scum.
Edit: Visorslash is outrageous with some of his claims. One game, he took the list of players and went down it, accusing every one. And he wasn't scum.

Anyway, back to this game. Sasaki, could you please provide some reasoning. Even if you're dead you can say more than "Kill Ishmael".
I take as my premise that the purpose of the game is to lynch scum, i.e. mafia or the serial killer. I will henceforth refer to this as Premise Alpha.
Given Alpha, it follows that if someone is scum, i.e. mafia or the serial killer, we should lynch them. I call this Premise Quantum.
Given that Ishmael is scum, i.e. mafia or the serial killer, and given both Alpha and Quantum the conclusion therefore inevitably follows, ipso facto, concordantly, vis a vis, ergo: We should lynch Ishmael. I call this Conclusion KILL ISHMAEL NOW.

Sasaki is good, but that doesn't make him always right. Ishmael's posts do come across as jokey most of the time, which might be considered as scumy, but Sasaki's accusation seems pretty jokey as well.
