Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
A pizza hut guy always used to come to a hobby shop I went to and sell pizzas that people ordered but then didn't want. You should do that ATPG, they always sold real well, and I think he basically jsut got to keep the money because he was supposed to chuck them.
But those people that just harass you for it, and give no top, ya, they are lame, I vote:those people
And I can be agent Regnir Bthgin?

Can't; those are to be taken back to the store and donated as per company policy. There is no chucking of pizzas under current management, unless it got dropped on the floor or otherwise contaminated.
I am also on the hook for the price of the pizza if I don't bring it back.
Also; off-topic. back to topic.
Edit: LOL at Regnir.

The evidence as it stands now points to Beskar being part of a larger organization, which is either Samus or Dark Samus. Samus would have had nothing to gain from publicly announcing TC as an antagonist when they could have done it free of publicity during the night - no one could have contacted TC from the IDFH, which means no people they can magically recruit from without investigating to find out if they can recruit them in the first place.
It's far more likely that Beskar is working with Dark Samus, likely one of the original members, and they simply outed TC early because -
1) TC loses nothing really, he'll still win with Dark Samus and can act as a known and very eloquent mafioso.
2) TC is able to get into contact with IDFH survivalists, getting past the need to investigate them first. Tonight, they will replace TC and be at full strength.
3) Beskar is apparently opposed to TC and may have connections with Samus, meaning hopeful GF survivalists will contact Beskar and then get killed before they are recruited and become more powerful.
It's simple and elegant really, and a wonderful gamble.
I agree that this is most likely. The key fact here is that the investigator had only one night, but he somehow knew who both Tincow and Beskar were. The only way this doesn't implicate Beskar as Mafia is if he is actually the investigator himself and got a lucky N1 result. This I find to be unlikely, both because of simple probability and on account of it being a rather obviously poor idea. It's also worth noting that depending on how recruitment mechanics and the number of responses Tincow received, this could still be worthwhile ploy by the Dark Samus faction even if it results in getting two of their members lynched.

Alternatively, we can wait until one of the mafia factions inevitably kills Beskar for being Beskar.

Not really we are just saying it is a fairly large coincidence that the investigator managed to find scum night one and trusted you to reveal this information. Whilst this does not make you scum it does not preclude you from being scum though I would have to say it was a fairly ballsy move if you are scum.

Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
The night phase has ended. Beginning the write-up now.

Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
Night 2
As the crew proceeded to their night-time stations, their minds were full of memories from the previous day. The GF marines and bounty hunters were pleased that they were one step closer to their mission of ridding the GFS Olympus of hostiles like the followers the Dark Hunter. The IDFH warriors were in good spirits as well… though they couldn’t get this mysterious Phazon substance out of their minds. The radioactive glowing blue stuff was capable of bestowing incredible power on those who wielded it, but could also have terrible side effects. And again, tonight, there were some who wandered the deck.
One such wanderer was Rundas, the bounty hunter.
He was confident in his abilities as a hunter- especially his super-cool ice powers- but also smart enough to keep a plan of safe action. Rundas believed he would be safest if he was on the move. As he proceeded down a corridor, he heard the very distinct sound of heels striking the metal deck behind him.
Quickly he tried to spin around, but he was stopped by two delicate arms thrown over his shoulders.
“Easy there. No need to be cold with me, hunter.”
Slowly the arms turned him around and brought him face to face with his captor. She had beautiful red eyes, and although Rundas did not recognize her face in the darkness, he felt that it was familiar; as if he had seen that face in a picture somewhere. The bounty hunter was quickly entranced.
“Now just relax and feel the warmth of my touch.”
She kissed Rundas, and he felt a tingling sensation where her lips touched his face. She was not just warm; heat spread from her lips to his whole body, beginning to melt the icy armor he was encased in. The magnitude of the heat increased until she was burning hot to the touch, and at this point Rundas realized he was in danger and tore himself away.
He didn’t get far. Furious, his attacker launched twin fireballs at him, and he roared in agony as the flames scorched his skin, used to sub-zero temperatures. With a final blast of flame, Rundas was knocked to the ground. As he burned to death, his last sight would be that mysterious, entrancing face.
---------------------------------------------
Commander Shepard stood alone in the darkness. She had decided that the corrupted hunters would most likely revisit areas they had previously been to. Believing she was more than a match for either of them with her superior combat skills, she had ventured into the wrecked Medical Bay area, which had been plunged into darkness since it lost power during the attack.
Shepard was at a disadvantage, though, for she didn’t have exceptional night vision, nor did she have a weapon that blended in with the darkness.
The Dark Hunter did.
The Commander was caught completely unaware and blasted off her feet by a missile composed of dark energy. As she got back up, gun at the ready, she saw the armor suit of the Dark Hunter, glowing blue as she menacingly approached Shepard.
Shepard fired at her target, but the heavy armor-piercing bullets just bounced off this special armor. The Dark Hunter picked Shepard up with one hand and flung her to the side, where she crashed into a medical table.
The Dark Hunter concentrated and charged up one final blast of dark energy in her arm cannon, unbeknownst to Shepard. When the Commander sprung up, ready for a counterattack, the attack struck her right in the chest, destroying the rest of her life force. The Dark Hunter left, satisfied.
---------------------------------------------------
Tonight, the Hunter headed into the Mess Hall. Inside was a lone GF Trooper; apparently he had got up for a midnight snack.
The missile she fired missed narrowly and struck the table he was sitting at, blowing it to bits and launching him against the far wall. The trooper was quick to get up, though, and had his machine gun trained on the fast-moving Hunter almost immediately.
The Hunter began firing blasts of light energy at the Trooper, who somehow managed to dive, roll, and do whatever was necessary to dodge these attacks. As soon as he saw an opening, the GF Trooper returned fire.
Several blasts of Phazon struck the Hunter’s armor, draining at her energy. She was surprised for a moment; then she understood. This was not just any Trooper. The Hunter was dealing with an elite, a GF PED Marine. The Phazon Enhancement Device on his back allowed him to fire ammunition charged with deadly Phazon.
However, the Hunter was not fazed. She took more care in dodging the Marine’s attacks, and charged a beam of concentrated light energy in her arm cannon. Finally seeing her chance, she jumped in the air and fired the beam, which traveled extremely fast and struck the Marine, simultaneously blinding and incinerating him.
The Hunter left his charred corpse in the stew pot, boiling for tomorrow’s breakfast.
------------------------------------------------------------
A small yellow creature with glowing blue eyes scampered through the air duct system, seemingly randomly. However, as it passed one exit, its ears perked up and it stopped. Looking through the metal grating in the ceiling, it saw its target below.
Noxus, the Vozon bounty hunter, lay sleeping in bed. Like Rundas, he had a tendency to use frigid weaponry on the job. Unlike Rundas, he was not so much concerned that he would be attacked, and so was not wandering the halls. However, it appeared neither his nor Rundas’s strategies were terribly useful for avoiding trouble.
The small creature kicked out the grating and it landed squarely on Noxus’s face, jolting him awake. He was confused and groggy, and the creature used this to its utmost advantage. The grating having fallen off of Noxus, the creature dropped through the vent opening and landed carefully on Noxus’s head. The perturbed bounty hunter flailed around wildly as he tried to throw off the creature.
“CHUUUUUUUUU!”
The small creature released a powerful current of electricity from its body and into that of Noxus, electrocuting him. It continued to hold the current open until it could no longer sense Noxus’s pulse.
After having placed Noxus into a more permanent sleep, the creature playfully scampered out of the room and through the ship.
-----------------------------------------------------
Jill Valentine walked cautiously through the halls, gun at the ready and trying to make as little noise as possible. She was skilled at survival in a situation such as this, but although having been in many extraordinary circumstances, they were never quite like this. Zombies? Yes. Infected, deranged humans? Sure. Intelligent, dangerous, and deadly bounty hunters? Not quite.
She continued navigating the halls, which became darker and darker as she progressed further into the Cargo Bay. Finally, the corridor opened up into a large room, which was lit dimly along the walls. The ceilings were high, however, and she could not see them through the darkness.
Suddenly, she heard a deafening screech, which sounded almost like some sort of animal’s roar. A massive, shadowy figure glided close to the ceiling, from the left to the right. To her right, a huge fireball exploded, throwing her to the ground from the force of it.
Jill, still on the floor, raised her hand to return fire, when suddenly another figure appeared right in front of her. It was a massive, muscled humanoid, with his back to her, holding his arms outstretched as if to stop whatever was lurking in the shadows.
She tried to figure out who this mysterious protector was, but his chiseled figure was reduced to a silhouette as fireballs exploded in front of him, seemingly stopped by some sort of imperceptible force field. The screeching of the creature became more and more frustrated, until eventually the fireballs stopped coming and it seemed to leave. In the blink of an eye, the protector had disappeared as well, without so much as a word.
Jill returned hurriedly to her quarters, shaken by the attack.

This might already be obvious to some people, but "updated" role PMs indicates that people are gaining powers and abilities similar to the Star Wars games.
If you have no powers right now, do not fret and do not tune out and ignore this game. If you survive you will end up being powerful.

I disagree. I haven't ever seen Nictel react that way, in any game, anywhere, under any circumstances. I think you could lynch him ordinarily without him ever noticing. Especially since he didn't do anything but abstain until pressure was applied. I was already having doubts, which I uttered in-thread, until he exploded like I'd never seen before. He's no ordinary role, and I very sincerely doubt he's a town power role.

Hmm, I would suggest voting for Beskar this round for the alleged plot with TinCow thingy. Yeah you might hit a detective, but even so, Beskar will get pissed and it will be funny. It seems the most direct thing to do, plus the town can then move on from worrying about him.

I didn't think his reaction was much at all. You keep characterizing it in some extreme way, but that seems really odd given the actual content of his posts.
I haven't played with Nictel ever (I think), but basing things on past behavior is a bad strategy because it can be changed and accommodated to, and it usually is. Having an idea of what town behavior is will also usually lead to destruction for much the same reason (unless it is something tied in with the mechanics of the game like killing people at night - and even that can be townie in certain games).

Atpg I can actually make a case for by extrapolating the useless predicate you described him by. Romanic? Why can Beskar wait unless there is some 3rd party detective result? And even that might be just another buddy of his.

I was actually beginning to get into this game and had crossed my fingers that, for once, I might live to see a large game finish; that hasn't happened since my first large game at the Org (Noblesse Oblige), which was almost a year ago.
What the Dickens do I have to do to actually survive one of these things?
Quote:

You mean that they're metagaming, correct?
Just for the record, so that people know for potential future games; if I had been an investigator, Beskar would have been bottom of the list of people I would have told. When it comes to mafia, I don't trust him fully and wouldn't give him important information without being 100% certain of his innocence; I reserve my complete trust solely for TheFlax, and Pizza to a lesser extent.
Just because Beskar's a close friend doesn't mean that we're in one another's pockets twenty-four-seven; this extends to mafia as much as everything else.
So please, afford me the same respect I show you guys by actually trying to learn how I play rather than believing that I degenerate into "durrr hurrr, I must tellz Beskar everyfin!" everytime that I get my role PM.

Gut feeling based off of how I died. I was "left in a pot for tomorrow", a rather morbid and unreasonable way to die considering Samus's character. This is someone intentionally interfering with the write up, someone who is full of spite that I ruined their chances as passing off as pro-town. It also indictates someone who has played with me as a mafioso, most likely from the Murder Manor III game. I tend to write in rather morbid and horrific ways of killing people, and since I have been mafia 4 times, 2 times starting as mafia, then they would have had to have played with me to insert such irony.
I say Winston for now simply because of gut feeling, but anyone from Murder Manor III will do.

Tincow was lynched and was mafia. He very well might have investigated Nictel; he's now operating on the assumption that his mafia team and his half of the town are going to win and is probably being honest about some things, but twisting the rest to suit his agenda. Anything he says can be considered, but it can't be considered factual. The only thing he can offer that I'll look at is ideas. His facts won't ever be trustworthy.
I am ignoring his input on Nictel for now.

I don't think so because if you look at the Hunter writeups which unless I'm completely out of it, is for Team Samus, 'Hunter' is bolded in red.

Yes; this is a Council of Villains game, the "hero" faction will be mafia and the villains/non-heroes/or in this case, some metroid people and some unrecruited good guys, will be townies, but the "heroes" and the phazon will be mafia.
I think all these games start with the premise reversed; good is mafia and evil is town. However they've been getting less straightforward as time goes on. Here, I believe there are "hero" mafia and "phazon" mafia; the phazon I thought would recruit villains only, but I don't think that theory is good anymore. The heroes should be led by Samus Aran, who is mafia from our perspective and that's why she's killing every night, as is Dark Samus, her rival and also mafia.
Some of these oddball kills feel like vigilantes, or nerfed killers of some kind. They are not our main objectives.
edit: I am still missing pieces, so I think Reenk's theory could also be valid. I am just assuming Samus is "Hero" in spite of the red writing.

I concede that I had my doubts about it too; when I first saw Pikachu in the writeups, I had a feeling that he might've been aligned with Samus himself, given their closeness in Super Smash Bros. Brawl's 'adventure' mode. I'm not certain how these Council games work though, so I rubbished that feeling quite quickly.

So you're saying that there's actually three town factions?
The IDFH, GF and Hero groups?

It also indictates someone who has played with me as a mafioso, most likely from the Murder Manor III game. I tend to write in rather morbid and horrific ways of killing people, and since I have been mafia 4 times, 2 times starting as mafia, then they would have had to have played with me to insert such irony.
I say Winston for now simply because of gut feeling, but anyone from Murder Manor III will do.
NOBODY interferes with MY write-ups! NOOOOOBODY! :clown:
Actually, YLC, when I wrote your death write-up this was my thought process:
-Want wide-open space with possible cover.
-Therefore set in Mess Hall.
-Wouldn't it be funny if I dropped him in a stew pot at the end.
In actuality, if anybody wanted to put things into the write-ups I probably would let them, but it would only be for flavor (pun intended). And I will always be writing them myself and have the final say
I'm usually pretty creative, and though these write-ups take a lot of time to do, it is one of the things I most enjoy about hosting.
So the only useful things you'll find in the write-ups are:
-Obvious, bolded, brightly colored clues.
-Incredibly obscure clues that I intend for noone to get until I reveal them at the end of the game and look smart. :laugh4:

I am almost certain Samus is the leader of the second mafia faction, as much as Dark Samus is the leader of the first. Samus is killing every night, in a pattern that doesn't match vigilantism. I will leave room for being incorrect on this, but I believe Samus can recruit certain GF people and make them part of her team. People like YLC, who she killed while not being a vigilante, but a mafia scum.
GF survivalists are Samus recruitment fodder. The symmetry is a bit on the nose, but also makes sense for game balance.
It's possible Samus is mafia and Pikachu/others are in a Hero faction. I may have missed the call on Hero being mafia, but I'm pretty sure Samus is, based on her rivalry with Dark Samus, who is recruitable but not by Dark Samus, and her kill pattern.
-
Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
I was suggesting that Pikachu was Samus' scum buddy, and thus a mafiosi rather than a vig-killer... not that either of the two were aligned with the supposed 'Hero' town faction, which my post may have been interpreted as.
Just to clear that up.

Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
Someone exiting the lynch just means they don't want to die (that's why I didn't join), meaning they could very well be town pr. So now you are town pr hunting. Die.

Yeah, if I were going to do that I'd just murder this person, but nice try. Stay dead.

To avoid being night killed. This incredibly scummy tactic will discourage mafias to kill me, thus buying me more time to do stuff during night phase.
Only problem is that this might get me lynched. So if I am under pressure I am either going to vote for Glenn or join vote for someone who has decent case against them.

Whoever Samus is, is incompetent because a scan would have saved her the hassle - a lot of hassle. I accused you of being Samus due to how I died in the write up.

Beefy, this will never get you lynched in a million years. That's the only thing that's actually scummy about it.

That can apply to Dark Samus in regards to me as well; it's ironic that we were both killed by the very factions that would probably have recruited us if they had just scanned first...

Judging from your nice colour coding, Beskar was attacked by a vigi. Probably Agent Tyrannosaurus Flex, unless Tincow got creative with the number coding. The choise of metroid music for a RE char is interesting though, not sure what to do with that.
Haven't figured out the colour coding on the victims yet. Looks to be random atm.

Just because Beskar's a close friend doesn't mean that we're in one another's pockets twenty-four-seven; this extends to mafia as much as everything else.
So please, afford me the same respect I show you guys by actually trying to learn how I play rather than believing that I degenerate into "durrr hurrr, I must tellz Beskar everyfin!" everytime that I get my role PM.
Since you appear to actually be distressed by this, I will address it. Yes, you were killed due to your personal relationship with Beskar. However, you emphasized the meta aspect of it yourself to support his case against me:

Don't play the meta card and then complain when it is used against you. The above to me looked very strongly like you talking about yourself in the third person. Thus, you became a target.

All mafioso have cover roles. All cover roles have a physical resemblance to the true character role. Who does an action-oriented human female resemble when you play Metroid music in the background?

I've considered that idea. The thing is that Jill Valentine is IDFH... And Samus pulling that on day one is stupidly risky. I think it refers to the defender, but I'm not sure.
Edit: The most bizzare one would be Dark Samus and interestingly enough, not impossible. Very unlikely, but not impossible. Beskar's hand was more pulled by the investigator than by his own choise in the scenario he has given.

Well for starters I'm in a time zone wayy different from yours, and I'm now only around shortly per day now that my holiday is shorter.
And I didn't have anything that wasn't already said to offer about Tincow's lynch and its resulting events by the time I was online, therefore there wasn't any posts.
In any case, I know little about the game universe, but I'd venture to say that 3 town factions is rather unlikely, if at all, perhaps 2 town factions, 2 mafia factions and one other extra? (Hero)
I guess it'll be made clearer once more alignments are revealed post death.
No idea on who to vote though, Nictel doesn't seem to be a great lynch, and beefy is being, well, beefy-ish in some odd plan to somehow save the world (vaguely recalls Beefy's crazy scheme in ABZF).
Vote: Abstain

There is obviously an argument being made on pizza. Many people vote without a reason, it's fine. And your reasoning is extremely minimal. This post will be noted for later.

If TinCow's mafia was trying to eliminate beskar he is most likely innocent. Opposing mafia are better left to be lynched.
