CBWGLMWCSWA were looking for a new singer, fresh from their hit debut album, We Suck ***, they decided that eight doorhandles prancing about the stage miming wasn't enough and wanted to hire a new member. The studio execs thought that the best way to leech more money from the pockets of parents of insipid eight year olds was through a tv reality show, where a bunch of morons would sing in front of some arrogant nobodies to earn a place in the "band".
Following a tedious, months long audition process, the list was narrowed down to seventeen hopefuls. Surely none of the execs would have the crazy idea of merging a talent contest with a murdering contest? That would be silly. Think of the ratings though....

So a little more on how the game will work. As it's a talent show each contestant will have to audition, there will be a randomised list of all seventeen players, including mafia. At the end of each phase, day and night, the next person in the list will "perform", a video will be posted of their audition. This will make the game more difficult for the mafia and they will need to manage kills and lynches carefully, killing the wrong person could bring their audition forward and perhaps expose them.

Well perhaps they could be used as a clue as to whether somebody is mafia or not. The difference between a mafia and townie audition could be obvious, vague, Byzantine or non-existant. Only the mafia, and me will know. The audition list will be completely random and public, adding another level of mafia tactics. It could be an interesting concept or could be a total flop, we won't know until we've tried.
Only the mafia, Secura and me will know.
I just had to fix this for you, as per the first two games. :P

Day one
The seventeen hopefuls were ushered into the dressing room by the executive producers, "Okay guys, this is it, your chance for fame and glory. This is slightly different from the usual shows in that you are going to vote each other off, not the audience." Warman puts his hand up. "Is that because you aren't expecting an audience ma'am?" he asks. He gets a :stare: in reply and quickly shuts up (if only it were really that easy....). "The first audition will be at the end of the day." Montmorency raised his hand "Doesn't that mean that somebody will be voted off before they even audition, that's hardly fair." :stare: He quickly puts his hand down and looks out the window.
"Okay, here is the order in which you will audition, first person will be up at the end of this phase."

So a little more on how the game will work. As it's a talent show each contestant will have to audition, there will be a randomised list of all seventeen players, including mafia. At the end of each phase, day and night, the next person in the list will "perform", a video will be posted of their audition. This will make the game more difficult for the mafia and they will need to manage kills and lynches carefully, killing the wrong person could bring their audition forward and perhaps expose them.
If Mafia are exposed as such when they audition, doesn't this mean that we simply need to lynch from the end of the list upward?
But they aren't exposed. There are probably differences, but they won't be massive.
TheLastDays
10-07-2011, 13:15
Yep, there'll probably be clues in the Mafia videos but nothing definite. Also, why do you think they would all be at the end of the list? JHT said the list was going to be randomised

johns comment intimated mafia exposure during their audition - if thats not the case it doesn't really apply, but I still don't think my idea is a bad one: If it is in mafias interest to move away from the front of the queue by lynching/night killing, so that their audition doesn't expose them in any way; then it is in towns interest to lynch those furthest from the front.
The mafia won't kill me, even if I'm confirmed town. I'm too scummy to be nightkilled. :cool:

As I said, since we can all simply reveal our videos, the Mafia videos won't be all that revealing, so I think it won't play a major part in the Mafia's strategy.

You are correct, it also misses out "Montmorency" on the first line as well. As if it is a cover-role of some sort, and not the original. I checked my pm after you pointed it out. Unfortunately, calling this out a little early might mean the other mafia will not make the same mistake.

I hope that was put on for tv, because laughing at the fella like that was pathetic, he comes across as a nice guy. I wasn't going to use that one, but my brain was already close to breaking point from watching so many youtube videos like these. I used it more as an example of a bad audition, rather than to laugh at him.

Montmorency is a bad vote. His video, although it may be a cover, fits the pattern of what to look for in auditions and I think it's unlikely that a scum would be so bold as to volunteer their cover role freely on day 1, especially considering there are other candidates in the lead to get lynched ahead of him. It's an unnecessary gamble for scum. Silence would've coasted him to day 2. If he's lynched, then we will get the opportunity to decide his fate if his video turns out to be his true role rather then a cover, assuming this game will play like the previous. As for the mistakes in his pm, his name has clearly just been left out in the copying. The host wouldn't give an incomplete cover like that and it's far too easy to explain away to lynch someone over. As for the bolding, it's quite possible JHT forgot to bold it, or was too lazy too. I admit, that's a bit peculiar.

So going on a show where they weed out the good from the bad, you better believe it, if your not good, then you are more than likely going to be lampooned for trying on a talent show. My brother only watches the auditions, since he finds it funny, but I prefer the time when the votes get to the public, when there is actual talent on the show. Plus why couldn't you gave me something from Pia Toscano?

Host note: Everybody was active and voting day one, thank you. :bow:
The day started slowly with random votes and other assorted meaningless votes, the tv execs looked worried, this was boring who would watch this. Then the tide of conversation turned toward practicising their performances so they could judge each other, the execs perked up at that, getting interesting. Montmorency opened the practice session and was quickly followed by others, but it was the first audition that garnered the most attention, and the longest lingering odour. The rest of the acts finally had a target, and Montmorency's fate was sealed.

End of Night One
Warman sat alone in his room, practicising for his audition, even though he was now scheduled to perform last. He would make sure the show went out with a bang.
"Och no lassie, I'm afraid it'll be yooo going oot wi' a bang, tonight!"
Warman stared at the three figures who had just entered his room, trying to work out what the biggest one had said, and how on earth they had managed to get out of the tv. As he pondered this the three killers stabbed him to death.

LazyMcCrow
10-09-2011, 19:13
So one of the killers spoke with a hammy scottish accent. Will the audition with the hammy scottish accent therefore be mafia? I'm still not certain what degree of intelligence we're sposed to be gleaning from these auditions - perhaps someone who has played jhts games before can bring me up to speed.
I assume I'm way off the mark here, as no one has mentioned it so far, and as a 'clue' its as obvious as being hit in the face with the murder weapon, but Speaking of national stereotyping: Is it me or is Arjos' brazen reveal actually incredibly incriminating? 'Rudi' is a fake fat Italian Ninja after all.
vote: Arjos for being a fake fat Italian ninja - until someone points out that I'm being incredibly stupid, at which point I'll happily switch to - I don't know: A lurker maybe?

Your audition was a success. The only success of the ones revealed. In the last game, all innocent auditions had a clear pattern over time, and the scum stood out from the rest. If this is the pattern, then you are a clear target for lynching, and perhaps also Beskar if he's not lying about his success.(Which he very well may be, thinking it may make him look innocent) The bad news is, it makes it a bit easier to forge a pm. The good news is, when someone is lynched, we'll know if they were legitimate or not.

As to the pattern, let's see a few more auditions. Or maybe those who haven't revealed yet, could go ahead and do so.
Also, I've started to wonder if maybe the "incriminating" thing about the auditions might not be the videos in and of itself (otherwise I don't get why JHT didn't prohibit us from posting them) but parts of the writeup around it.

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :shrug:
I think its a bit too early to do some grand theories about the videos, there's a bunch of them we haven't seen.
Unless something truly stands out, I'm rather more interested in analysing posts and behaviors then videos. To that effect, I'd like to understand what's so wrong with Arjos' reveal, seems fine to me. Lazy McCrow's rationale of being a "fake italian" is a clue to being mafia is tenuous I think, but what I find even more egregious is Skooma's post theorising about what a successful audition means or doesn't. That these two wild theories happen to coincide on the same person boggles my mind.
By the way, here's mine:

I agree with TheFlax, it's way too early to try and figure out what the auditions mean. We should probably wait until more evidence surfaces before everyone starts conspiring about the videos.
Looks like Flax was a success as well.
There are many factors to consider:
Pop Idol / Xfactor / Got Talent
Location of the Show
Success / Fail / Non-Serious audition (Mont's)
Male / Female / Group

Anyway, I haven't actually watched any of the shows that these auditions are from, but after watching some of the ones posted so far, I really wonder what constitutes a "success", particularly with America's Got Talent.

I don't think you forged your audition, I just thought it stood out and as TheFlax also points out, my reasoning was self-admittedly tenuous when I posted. However, the fact that the Arnhem Land Islander (with their Greek mafia song ;P) and the quite excellent 'General' Larry Platt/Zack also had successful auditions equally as bizarre as Arjos/Rudi makes me feel like we DO need to see more to form any opinion and the fact that none of the three had a scottish accent as well leaves me feeling like success/failure as a clue is a dead end anyway.
@B_Ray - I already said the same about posting auditions in advance maybe being against the spirit of the game, but that is up to the host to reinforce. We ARE allowed to post them, so how does keeping your audition to yourself help town?
Seems like more of a hindrance to me and I can't help feeling suspicious of anyone who won't post theirs.
But most of all its time to hear from those who aren't posting. So I'll,

For the time being, I'll vote: Flax because his was the only one not from America or Europe.I am pretty certain that JHT, being evil, would not make it easy for to find out who is mafia just from the release of audition tapes. That would make the game too easy and I don't think John would be that naive to make the game easy for us to get the mafia right, just from that. I am going to go with someone who hasn't released their audition tape yet. vote:Secura

:uneasy: I honestly think the mass revealing of auditions is against the spirit of this game, considering the role that they were intended to play in the progression of the game.
I'm with you on this; the first two games took some sort of critical thinking to solve, finding a connection between roles and how they differed from the town's, so winning the game via mass-revealing of host PMs feels a bit cheap in comparison.
In the last game, all innocent auditions had a clear pattern over time, and the scum stood out from the rest.
Which game are you referring to? Can you link this? I didn't see a third game anywhere.
I ask because while this was the case in the first game (the scum's cover roles had 'obvious' choice songs that a teenage songstress might know, the town's choices were all obscure parts of their musician's catalogue), it was not the case in the second; in that game, there was little to distinguish between the mafia and the town's roles, and it was only a footballing link (both mafia's roles were Manchester United fans) that helped us lynch them both.

I haven't played the first one. In the second one, you're right about the two cover roles given in that game. The performance however was a dead giveaway. We only lynched one scum before the host ended the game. Unfortunately, in this game there is no option of making someone perform before voting to lynch them.

In the second game, the mafia (Romanic and Petrow) were not given cover roles and had to rely on the town not being able to join the dots, which we didn't connect until the end of the game; judging by Romanic's comments, it looks like the mafia didn't know the connection until I brought it up either!

They were slightly disappointed in only half of the remaining entrants casting a vote, leaving at this stage of the competition with only two votes against your name must be very frustrating, but when you didn't cast a vote yourself you have nobody else to blame.

All you need to do is to remember that time you are in GMT and then work from that. So when you start the timer for the game, you must remember to take one hour from you current time. It should not take too much work.
You posted the writeup at 0907 GMT + 10
My timer ends at 0900 GMT +10 the next day. Are you sure it's wrong?

More seriously, have we dropped the mass claim thing? It just seems weird to me that Autolycus was lynched for not role claiming last day phase, yet those who didn't role claim haven't come out since then. Or is this the underlying reason for a B_Ray vote?

Yet again a hopeful was booted off the show with a total of 2 votes, if B_Ray had placed a vote he could have forced a tie. There was more debate on the intricacies of the clock than on actual suspects for the killings. Captain Blackadder was next up to audition.

:shrug: Seems like you only need 2 votes to lynch someone in this game.. My only other experience is Capo IV - what can I say? . I just re-read the thread and thought B_Ray seemed scummy, but that was pure intuition. Given the lack of response from most players, I'd assume that the mafia are keeping quiet and laughing themselves...silenter. ... hoarseer..er..?
In that respect I'd have no aversion to lynching another lurker tomorrow.

Not at all. The day phase sneaked up on me. I thought I had more time to cast a vote. I'm guessing it's the same for the others going by the amount of activity now.

Not really. Arjos' audition (his name has fallen off the 'auditioned' list btw) still sticks out for me, but not in a particularly tangible way. There was no clue with the Visorslash killing as there was with the Scottish accent in the first Warman murder, so not sure really.

Why are the Mafia consistently targeting those who have already auditioned? Perhaps they believe that the material in their videos is so incriminating that once they come up no one could possibly suspect another?
Let's get that updated audition list please!

Vote: TheFlax
I wouldn't call 2 on 3 "consistently", though it seems the trend lately. Then again the fact that people who auditioned seem to never get voted may be another reason. (Are mafia killing people who auditioned because they are obviously town or because town automatically seem to consider them innocent?)
LazyMcCrow
10-14-2011, 08:52
Both Csargos (Red) and Skooma Addicts (Rachel) auditions involved them swearing. Red's audition had an underlying sense of aggression to it, whereas Rachel/Skooma was escorted out by security.
Skooma - why the vote on the Flax?
I'm reluctant to vote on anyone as it seems to be doing mafias work for them (it doesn't look like any of the lynches have been particularly good yet)
but it is getting dangerously close to mafia win time - there are three left no?
for now:
vote: Skooma Addict
but if anyone has any better ideas, I'd be sure to listen.

I voted Flax since I suspect him. I completely expected to be lynched because of it since the scum successfully convinced the town my idea was foolhardy and it was pointless to discuss possible theories that early in the game, which I found quite amusing, almost as amusing as the fact that I'm about to be lynched because of a theory that's less likely then mine. I wanted to see if my other two scum suspicions would hop on my wagon and sure enough they did. Conveniently the last two people on it to boot. Just keep this in mind town - Three killers, three successful auditions. I'll keep an eye on the thread to see if I was correct or miserably wrong as usual.(It's the skooma you see, dulls the senses, makes one paranoid)
Good Luck...:bow:

I think it is even more sinister. Who is the last person to be auditioned?
Me.
Easy how this is going to work, Mafia are going to leave me as one of the last standing then simply during that crucial "tiebreaker round", the point where the mafia vote and town vote is equal, they will try to get me lynched with the ol' "It's Beskar, he is always scum" routine and thus win the game.

What about your dingaling?
When I was a little bitty boy
my grandmother bought me a cute little toy
Silver bells hangin' on a string
she told me it was my ding a ling
My ding a ling, my ding a ling
I want to play with my ding a ling
My ding a ling, my ding a ling
I want to play with my ding a ling
And then mother took me to Grammer School
But I stopped all in the vestibule
Every time that bell would ring
catched me playin' with my ding a ling
Once I was climbing the garden wall
I slipped and had a terrible fall
I fell so hard I heard bells ring
but held on to my ding a ling
Once I was swimming cross Turtle creek
many snappers all around my feet
Shure was hard swimming cross that thing
with both hands holdin' my ding a ling
This here song it ain't so sad
the cutest little song you ever had
those of you who will not sing
You must be playin' with your own ding a ling
My ding a ling
