Of the two major suspects left, I think Seon is innocent and whilst i am suspicious of Arjos I think Monty seems off he seems to be trying too hard for townie.

Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Sorry guys, something unexpected came up. Write up commencing.
Batman had left the church to check up on a lead on The Riddler's location, little did he know it was a ruse to get him out of the way. Would the survivors learn from their mistakes?
"Third time lucky?" thought The Riddler, as he watched his goons creep into the church, through the door his undercover thug had left open. She was dragged through the exit screaming, Riddler was keeping her alive to tease the Bat over his failure.
The undercover thug smiled to himself as Batman returned a few minutes later. His smile faded as he realised something was wrong, why was he not asking about the missing doctor? The thug quietly turned toward the exit.
Swoosh!
"Where do you think you're going?"
The thug shivered, Batman couldn't know, could he?
Riddler chuckled to himself, as he imagined Batman's fury at finding another innocent gone. He would play this one out for days, stringing the doctor's agony out to taunt his adversary.

Riddler turned in shock to see Batman right behind him. He shouted for his goons, but they were in the land of nod, it was just him and the Bat. Being the smart fellow that he is, he knew it was pointless to fight back, and sunk to his knees in despair, as his nemesis fastened the cuffs.
"You didn't pay attention to the game Nigma. There was only one way you could win, capturing the last innocent was your undoing."
Town win.
Roles:
The Riddler: Arjos
Batman: Seon
Vicki Vale: Double A
Stacey Baker: Cpt B
Aaron Cash: Monty
Eddie Burlow: Ishmael
Elvis Jones: Visorslash
Host's notes:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
This was an experimental game, and I want to thank Arjos for a great performance as The Riddler that just fell short. You're probably wondering why you lost, check your role pm, you had to get Batman lynched. If Seon was lynched at any time you would have won. The killing of Cpt Blackadder meant it was just you and Batman going in to the final round, and let's face it as a one on one fight it's no contest.
The Riddles were either in the day or night phase, a day phase was a clue to the next victim, a night phase was a clue to Arjos' identity. Seon as Batman had a protect ability, which he used to great effect. He knew if he was lynched at any time it was game over, but he also knew what would happen if he and Riddler were the last two players, he asked for clarification on this, so I'm assuming he knew if he didn't protect Cpt B and Cpt B was attacked, he would get the win.
The only other role with an ability was Double A, he had the ability to scan for Batman, not sure why I put that in to be honest, it would have put the game even more in the town's favour. Had he bothered to use it.
Thanks for playing everybody, and feel free to make an angry post about the cruel role I gave you Arjos. :wink:

Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Wow, very good then.
Though it's trange that the game setup encourages Batman to allow the other townies to die! :shocked:

Arjos
Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
I thought Monty was batman :P
Anyway to win I had to lynch him, so couldn't kill him during night no? XD
Had I spared Cpt B, he would've just vote for me...
All in all, this was very fun to play, hoping you can figure out a bigger one ^^
12-07-2011, 22:29
Seon
Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Yeah, I allowed Capt. Blackadder to die at the last round :tongue:
12-07-2011, 22:31
Arjos
Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Ahahahahah, I kept on targeting him during the other rounds, because I thought you weren't present and so seeing him protected made me think it was Monty XD
Well done you lurking Batman :P
And thanks for the game JHT ^^

I would've loved a verbal exchange, very Riddler vs Batman like :P

Seon
Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Well, I played this game much the same way I would play a Serial Killer role. If my only weakness was getting lynched, then all I had to do was stay off everyone's radar.
But I had no idea it was you until the very end, Arjos XD.

Actually, that would be awesome, if the Batman thought I was the Riddler, and vice versa.

Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Btw I was asking if this was the final riddle, not because I thought I won, but I was thinking the game ended with the previous phase :D

Forgot about it. If I had used it, I would have scanned Monty and then I would have died. So no big deal I guess.

Didn't you wonder why I asked you to confirm your night orders? Or what I meant by this in the penultimate write up:

If you read the write up he didn't actually die, Batman would never do that. :smile:

Arjos
Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Yeah, I was puzzled :D
But it said also about Batman leaving the church, I thought he was distracted or gone :P
There was no name for the cop with an hook XD
Anyway it was over then, I'd never had enough votes on Seon :)

Re: Arkham City: Mini Mafia Game. [In Play]
Nice work JHT, I've been reading this since the get-go and found it to be a really fun and different game concept, it would be interesting to see how you'd translate it into a wider player base.
Congratulations to Seon and the rest of the town! :bow:
You were part of the debacle at Arkham Asylum, and have found yourself in the middle of another clash between Batman and a super criminal. Each day you can vote to have a player lynched as The Riddler.
Edward Nigma, you are one of Batman's most cunning adversaries. Each night phase you can select one player to be killed by your minions. You must also leave a clue, in the form of a riddle. This can either be a clue as to your own identity, or to the identity of your next victim. Clues as to the next victim will be posted during the day phase write up, clues as to your indentity will be posted during the night phase write up. All clues must be true.
You are the caped crusader, and Arkham City's only hope to defeat The Riddler, if you die, he wins. Each night you can defend one player, and you are immune to The Riddler's attacks. You are susceptible to lynching however. If the game comes down to Batman vs The Riddler you will win.
Victory conditions: Survive the game, lynch The Riddler.
A volunteer medic, you came to Arkham City to help those less fortunate. Things have taken a turn for the worse, however, and you find yourself in the middle of a battle of wits between Batman and The Riddler. Each day you can vote to have a player lynched as The Riddler.
You were part of the debacle at Arkham Asylum, and have found yourself in the middle of another clash between Batman and a super criminal. Each day you can vote to have a player lynched as The Riddler.
You were part of a squad sent in the Arkham Asylum by Gordon to find out the truth behind the prison. Betrayed from within you have found yourself in the middle of a clash of wills between the world's greatest detective and the self proclaimed world's smarted man. You can vote each day to lynch the player you believe to be The Riddler.
A seasoned reporter, you slipped unnoticed in to Arkham Asylum and found yourself in the middle of a titanic clash between a superhero and master criminal. Each day you can vote for the player you think is The Riddler, you also have a reporters instinct and can investigate one player each night to find out whether they are Batman.
Victory conditions: Lynch The Riddler.

Cpt Blackadder as next victim, from a quote from Blackadder the Third. Worked out in thread and Seon protected Cpt B.

Another clue toward Arjos as The Riddler. An Arjos is a Gallic noble, who tied the heads of those he killed to his horse.
