Gotta have more Mafia [Concluded]

Ok, I have no patience waiting to see the result from the other mafia game, and besides it's not fair that the General never gets to play, so I'm starting another game. First 22 to sign up get to play, +1 reserved spot for GH makes 23 players total. Everyone will have a role, some weak some strong I believe it's mostly balanced though (it's similar to a format I saw used in a game on another forum). There will be mafia, doctor(s), cop(s), Masons, over a dozen different roles all told. The exact roles I won't tell you.

I will reveal each persons role when they have been lynched. Being lynched requires a majority, once the majority has been reached the person is considered dead even if someone unvotes afterwards. If too much time has gone by and there is no majority the person with the most votes will be executed.

The mafia agree on one person to kill each day, instead of each killing someone. They will write at least part of the murder description.

Rules:

Bold all votes, like this: Vote:Sasaki

Please unvote before changing vote

No posting after you're dead

Don't quote, forward, or take screenshots of any pm's from me. If you want to convince people of your role you will have to do it through your own eloquence.


Due to the nature of this game, I'm going to be cautious about accepting people who lurked last game. You can sign up, but you have to convince me you'll actively participate this time (shouldn't be to hard to do). Please check your calender to see if you are going on vacation for a week or something.

Yay. Now I get to outsmart you all.

Thank you very much Sasaki. :2thumbsup:

Reenkmeister is in again. I'm hooked... :sweatdrop:

Wait: I'm going to have to make a new list...

Well, I guess I'll have a go too.

No revealing screenies, eh? That should make this interesting...:2thumbsup:

Hee, good thing I reserved you a spot. I have a feeling this thing is going to overwhelm me with private messages.

Sign me up oh dark one.

I would advise not to send copies to "Sent Mail" as well as only replying when one is needed (I never reply to the mafia's PMs unless there's a problem). You're a mod, your massive inbox should be able to handle it. :juggle2:

I'm in.:2thumbsup:

First Game I went on a cruise
Second Game I was in Europe
Third game I was back home visiting

This game I'll be active because I'll be at college sitting around during classes with nothing better to do.

Sign me up.

I'm in.

I sign up.

I might sit down and watch this one, but oh, I am skeptical.:inquisitive:

Alright, I'll try this one, it seems different.

Lemur reporting for duty. A suggestion -- since this is a different vein from GH's Mafia, perhaps we should call it Cosa Nostra?

Mafia is a well established game with lots of variations, all of which are called mafia (or Werewolf, be we aren't playing with werewolves).

Kanamori, what do you mean exactly?

It was, to me at least, a light-hearted way of saying: "I've dismissed the Mafia games w/o ever looking at them too closely, and now I'm kind of interested, but the hype makes me cautious. I'll make the comittment to watch but not to participate." Ie, ignore my post.:tongue2:

Count me in.

Wonderland shall participate.

I would be interested in taking part also.

Seeing as I'm dead in the other Mafia game, I most definitely will join.

I'd love to play. Hurrah for GeneralHankerchief! ~:cheers:

I'm in.

no 22 lol.. just in time!:laugh4:

edit: hmmm not.. GHC posted as well so there's a few spaces left.

I wanna try!

Sign me up... :2thumbsup:

Sign me up, please.

I wanna give it a try, if there's still room.

Before I forget;

You may want to sign The Stranger up. He asked to be notified in the other thread when the next mafia starts and as it is unlikely that he will get here before the other 2 spaces are filled it is only fair that he is signed up anyway.

EDIT: Sasaki, you seem to have missed me out from your list. Is there a problem? I assure you I won't be going on holiday any time soon and so I will actively participate if that's what it is.

I'm in, if there's still room that is. :2thumbsup:

:balloon2:

Sorry SV, I got caught up trying to spell Fafnesbane and forgot you.

C'mon, just one more.

I'll participate but if the stranger wants to join he can take my place.

Woohoo.

All PM's sent. Send me whatever, if that is something your role requires.

pm me any questions also.

It had been a long day on the job for discovery1. Driving a bus is a mind numbing job, and towards the end of the of the day he became tired and began to make mistakes. His first mistake was getting to of his routes mixed up. His second mistake was far more serious—he picked up the wrong passenger at the wrong time. It was late at night and the bus was empty. Discovery1 was hailed by a cloaked figure along a stretch of road that had no regular stops. He pulled over anyway. The stranger sat in silence for a while, his brooding manner disturbed disco. He began attempting to make small talk. Halfway through his chatter about the weather the stranger stood up. Disco’s eyes were on the road and he did not notice as the man pulled a hammer out from beneath his cloak. The man said in a low voice: “You are the beginning. Be glad of that honor". Disco turned to look at him…

Divinus Arma was sleeping peacefully. Suddenly he was wakened by a great racket from the downstairs kitchen. He walked quietly down the stairs, opened the door, and gasped…

Silver Rusher had stopped for food at his favorite restaurant. He had enjoyed his meal, but would have enjoyed it more had it not been for the feeling that the owner was watching him. His waitress seemed nervous somehow, something he couldn’t quite put his finger on. He left the restaurant and began his walk back to his home, thoughts of his loved one ever present in his mind. It was strange how the streetlights seemed to blur together into one…

Tiberius was entertaining some of his friends in his large mansion. While they partied on, a man in a trench coat scaled the wall of the garden. Sneaking through the bushes until he reached the edge of a clearing the man assembled his sniper rifle and took aim through the brightly lit window at the back of tiberius’s head…
_____________________________________________

The frontroom enquirer will have the details when it is finished printing. Hint: not all of them died...

FRONTROOM ENQUIRER

The people of the town were roused from their beds last night at the sound of an explosion on main street. A runaway bus collided with a large barrel that had been left in the middle of the street. Surprisingly no one died in the accident. According to the forensic experts both the corpses found at the scene were already dead before the collision. Silver Rusher had been bound and helpless inside the barrel of oil which had been set on fire, and discovery1 seems to have died from severe head trauma.

Divinus Arma was one of the few who was not awakened by the explosion. He had woken up in the middle of the night by an intruder in his house. Going downstairs to the kitchen, he discovered to his horror that all of his beer had been stolen. There was garbage strewn everywhere. He called the police, but they were not able to respond immediately because they were answering another call.

Tiberius had phoned the police after an attempt on his life. He had had friends over to dinner, and afterwards they were entertaining themselves in the living room. One of his friends stepped outside for a smoke, and saw the glint of the gun barrel in the bushes just in time to shout a warning to Tiberius. The assassin missed and vanished into the night.

A Funeral was held that same day for discovery1 and Silver Rusher. Afterwards the mayor got up and made a speech: “These murders must stop” he said, and it was decided that one person would be democratically executed each day until the perpetrators were dead. Voting was about to begin when screams were heard from the cemetery. Rushing to the scene, the villagers discovered the body of Drisos, who had apparently swallowed a vial of potion and stabbed himself with a dagger at the foot of Silver Rusher’s grave.

In other news, are you using the correct kind of fish bait for the weather? Today is quite sunny, and…

Killed(2):
Discovery1 (Bus Driver)
Silver Rusher (Italian Mafioso + Romeo)

Suicide(1):
Drisos (Juliet)

Executed(0):

Alive (20):

Voting may now begin. With 20 alive, it takes 11 to lynch.

God Dammit!!!

Ah well, bad luck you know. Someone has to die on the first day. You townspeople are going to have to work a bit faster than in the other game. Lynching too many townspeople could be fatal.

But I don't understand what happened to DA and I don't see why Tiberius didn't die.

It appears that at least Tiberius was saved, and I'd say the same would count for DA (beer stolen ?). Maybe the work of a lifesaver ?

EDIT: Lifesaver may be a bad word, Doctor would be better

Or maybe Tiberius was a kung-fu master kind of character able to kill whoever tried to kill them.

Not likely since the assassin vanished into the night.

:balloon2:

BTW GH, I've got 73 pm's sent and recieved from this already. I don't know how you managed when you had the small inbox. How many did it hold?

It originally had forty.

Many thanks for upgrading the size (I'm assuming you had something to do with it) btw. It is much appreciated. :bow:

In-character: Gentlemen, I think we need to look at the roles revealed here. While I can't fathom anything from Disco's, but Silver's tells us a lot. First of all, he's the Italian Mafioso, which means that there are probably different families running around. While one is most likely gone or wounded, it's a sign that we need to tread carefully.

I withhold on voting until some other voices are heard.

Does the Italian Mafioso mean he was murdered by one, or that he was one. I suspect the former, but wouldn't that mean that at least one mobster's dead ?

:balloon2:

Hmm Well I don't think we have much clues at the moment. Just a question but what's a mason?

Must... not... reveal... anything... :skull: :skull: AAAAHHH!!!

Yes, I'm almost positive that Silver *was* a mafioso. But he was also probably killed by one as well.

Gert, looking it up on Wiki, a mason is somebody who knows everyone else's role.

oh okay. Thanks general. pff this is going to be a chaotic fast game if you ask me. oh boy.

No: Masons know eachothers' roles, therefore they know that each other mason is innocent. At least that's the way I understand it.

Yep, it's true.

Don't the members of the mafia know each other ?

IE not kill each other off...

:balloon2:

So Silver Rusher was at least killed by the mafia. The death list lists him as romeo, too, and Drisos as juliet. Part of a the game, to have one character be forced to commit suicide when another died?

Quote:

---

The mafia agree on one person to kill each day, instead of each killing someone. They will write at least part of the murder description.

---

So, multiple mafia families perhaps?

From the wiki, it seems Romeo was a mafia, and juliet a civilian. That would seem to mean Silver Rusher was mafia, if that site is relevant. And it would seem to mean multiple families. Oh joy.

Crazed Rabbit

Yeah, you can tell that again...
So who to vote...the texts are so short hard to find any clues of the mafia at all. Hmmm...

Yes it is, you should go see a doctor.

:balloon2:

If that wiki is to be followed, Silver is aware of all mafia identities.

[Perhaps we should also be aware though that according
to Sasaki's rules, Silver should no longer be posting.]

mirror? huh?

Well, a few of us have been in the chat talking and have determined that this really doesn't give us enough information.

With that in mind, vote:Lemur just to annoy him.

I like to ennoy people!
Lemur it is!

Well DA without beer might be a dangerous thing...

but what the hell, I'll just vote: Lemur

I was trying to do this all through the other game:

VOTE: LEMUR

Nothing personal Lemur, but we might as well get this over quickly Vote:Lemur.

:balloon2:

To ennoy him, can't you read? Tss silly dutch.
:dizzy:

Vote: Lemur

A preemptive strike against whining and everything else that comes with it ~:wave: .

It seems you posted that while I was editing my post, so yeah, scrolling up told me what I needed to know - thanks anyway.

:balloon2:

Wow, this is interesting. I would kind of like to check out Wikipedia's page on Mafia in order to get a better idea of what all roles might be in play here, but I think it will be more fun to figure them out ourselves. Revealing each player's role with their death removes some of the mystery and confusion, which is nice considering there's more to keep track of. Anyway...

Poor discovery, guy got killed in the very first round of the last Mafia game, too! ~;p Whoever killed him first this time is truly insidiously evil. Feel sorry for Drisos, too, killing himself when his lover Silver Rusher went down. Never would have guess he was gay... I wonder if the Juliet role is supposed to defend the mafioso they're tied to, and if that effectively makes them anti-town?

Also, the two deaths seemed as if they were coordinated. But if there are two rival mafia families, that can't be the case, right? I assume that the fact that discovery's bus collided into Silver Rusher's burning barrel was purely coincidental?

Anyway, it looks like Lemur will likely end up with the majority of the votes. And I'd personally like to see Lemur die for his behavior in the last Mafia game (which is still ongoing)... but, it would be no fun to let that carry over, and I'd rather everyone start with a clean slate. I have no, and never have had, hard feelings toward you, Lemur. :2thumbsup: So I'll vote GeneralHankerchief, that he can know what it feels like to be voted for, for the very first time.

vote: GeneralHankerchief

All of my beer is gone? There is only ONE person here who hates me enough to torture me like this:

VOTE: LEMUR

:laugh4:

for callin you silly?
Strange guy, funny and nice. But strange. TOugh I do no like you in the other mafi game.

gah!

Poor Lemur. I gonna Vote:doc_bean just to mix things up.

Someone stole DA's beer? :inquisitive:

Vote:Lemur

I figure I'll break my trend of not ever voting for him, and he's the only one who would do such a cruel thing to DA. Plus, we won't have the lengthy speils from him.

Crazed Rabbit

Vote Count (11 to lynch):

Lemur: 8
GH: 1
doc_bean: 1

Post overidden by Sasaki :(

Nah, because people can change votes if they wish. 10 will only be 50% and he'll need more than 50% to be lynched. 8 votes and he hasn't even had a chance to defend himself, poor guy.

No for understanding why everyone was voting for Lemur.

Just so you know, the voting shouldn't be taken personal, you're still my favorite Belgian - no worries.

:balloon2:

Too little to work on… I suspect this game is on expert.
Therefore Bandwagon it is Vote:Lemur
let's hope you are Mafia. :sweatdrop:

O.k. (At Sasaki)

I see no reason in rushing to vote for Lemur at this early stage. [Even if he will
butcher everyone in that other town.] He is most likely doomed already, but I
will reserve my vote for the time being.

Lemur. Even if he's innocent, he's a pain; so kill him.

Well, Lemur is going to be lynched anyway, so I might as well speed things up a bit. My vote is Lemur.
