Hmm I understand what you're saying. But the dramatic peak of the game was the round boudica got lynched. Every game has a peak, and after that it always goes downhill. Capo II the round kukri got lynched, settlement when jolt was lynched and iffo killed, GF3 when it was decided that the dead would vote. That ship has sailed.
As it is, you're suggesting that GH and I argue for khaan's lynch without somehow revealing anything.

don't reveal.
Come on...the idea is the town DOESNT know who you are. They shouldnt know if GH was the GF or not.
Not happy Sasaki.

You'll have to post the kill you wrote sometime.
It's funny, I was going to suggest you send in your kill asap like I did with seamus, but I figured khaan wouldn't have tipped his hand like that if he could kill at night. All he had to do was lynch el diablo and then kill you?

Great game! Congratulations to you two. I wish I could have played a larger part in the grand sheme, but my internet time wouldn't allow for more.
It's been fun to try my hands at one of these Mafia games again. I'll see when I find the time to try my hands at the next.

This is the first game as mafia where I've actually written kills, was quite enjoyable. And having offed the IRA, a serial killer, and a welshman we've done our duty by the loyal citizens of great britain that the irish are.

Hmm, not an ideal situation with khaan still casting a tiebreaker, but he's in an even worse position. He votes for El Diablo, he dies. He votes for Sasaki, he dies.
No mercy, not even if he saves our butts in the end. Consider it his penalty for dragging us on like this.

Eh, I think you could reasonably go for a tie. And who knows, maybe we'd both be saved, maybe, we'd both die, maybe pever flips a coin, maybe there's a "next vote decides it"--basically either we win with a tie or it's no worse than a regular lynch.

I say we kill him at night--that way we can insult him in the write up. The pen is mighter than the sword lol.
And we might as well wait and see. Tell him to ask pever if we're allowed to kill him if it gets down to four and the game is over.
"Khaan limped hurriedly down the street, his gimp leg causing him to hobble along with an awkward gait. His drunkenness had started another argument with his wife over his general slobbishness and unemployment, and in his anger he had slapped her in the face. The resulting fight left him bruised and sobbing, as it always did when he and his wife fought, for he was a frail man and quite short, besides being hampered by his leg. Now, with tears in his eyes, he walked as quickly as he could towards the one pub that still gave him credit.
Out of an alley ahead of him a man appeared, dressed in a neat suit and carrying a pistol in each hand. Khaan realized that he was going to die. A man with any sense of dignity would stand up and bravely face his killer, but khaan was not that man. He let out a wail of fright and ran as fast as his stumpy little legs would carry him. He didn't make it 10 paces before he tripped and fell into the gutter, which he desperately crawled along, thinking of nothing but escaping death.
Behind him he heard the click of a safety being turned off and at that moment the terror became to much for him and he passed out and drowned in the mixture of urine, vomit, and spilt beer that filled the gutter to a considerable height"
you get the idea...

Eh, the more I think about it, the less he makes sense.
If you kill him, he says he'll out you and you'll lose.
But if he's alive, El Diablo will have no one to vote other than you--because he knows that he's innocent and that khaan is not the brit godfather.
So why does he expect you to let him live?
-edit-
eh well, if he doesn't change his vote today we can tie it up and see what happens. No lynch or double lynch, either one gives us victory.

Oh yeah. If he isn't going to play along this round he's not going to play around the next. Tell him you'll never post the quicktopic if he doesn't vote el diablo :)
Presumably he has more than one victory condition, one involving being the sole survivor--so he'd like to survive tonight, and get you lynched tomorrow.
If he doesn't want to get killed he should vote with us...
Eh, not a fan of detectives. Particularly not ones who can find the godfather. That's kind of the appeal of having a godfather in a game.

Well, I doubt any of the others will be online then. And last night should have proven I know how to get my vote in right before deadline. Pizza not being in time had nothing to do with his "rusty trigger finger" lol...
If khaan's victory condition is survival, the way that usually works is that they don't get killed in an endgame scenario. Don't see why he wouldn't vote for el diablo though. If he comes online ask him to switch.

Well, getting a vote from someone who knows your role through investigation doesn't count.
If LW votes el diablo, we win with your vote switch. If he doesn't show up, we win with your vote switch. If he votes for me, tell khaan that you'll kill him tonight if he doesn't switch votes to el diablo. Don't believe khaan is on our side personally. You can tell khaan that if I get lynched you'll have to kill him because it's know that he isn't the godfather. He should realize that...was being coy in pm's earlier today.
However...don't be hasty in threatening him. He could have the chat log saved.

I'll most likely be on to do a last-second vote switch too.
Current vote count:
Sasaki: 1 (GH)
El Diablo: 1 (Sasaki)
GH: 1 (khaan)
Not voting: 2 (El Diablo, Winter)
I think if Winter shows up he'll vote for El D.

Actually, this game's starting to remind me a bit of Godfather 2 with our hopeful lynch line-up. In that game it was Seamus (alleged mafioso of rival faction), CR (person who everybody thought was the GF who we threw under the bus) and then finally Myrddraal (grunt, but better than the GF).
Hopefully this time it'll go LG-boudica-you, although this time we have a round or so's advantage.
Vindication, finally?

We should still lynch little grizzly though.
I don't understand pizza. I would be much happier if this is a plot to save LG. Otherwise he revealed himself and diana on the basis of my pretense that boudica was my godfather.

Therefore, my conclusion will be that we should kill Diana regardless and get either LG or boudica lynched.

IF LG IS LYNCHED:
Kill El Diablo at night. We're probably the sole remaining mafia faction now (Pizzaguy flees). Lynch boudica.
IF BOUDICA IS LYNCHED:
Kill LG early at night. The IRA will probably kill you so make sure you get your kill in early. This is what I'm worried about, as it will be me, khaan, El Diablo, Diana, and Lord Winter IIRC. Maybe you. I'll probably push for an El Diablo lynch, or possibly you depending on circumstances. We do not want this to happen.
IF SASAKI IS LYNCHED:
I kill LG, IRA kills boudica. Don't have to worry about the order. I push for El D.
IF A COMBINATION IS LYNCHED:
If LG is part of the combination, we kill a lurker. Otherwise, we kill LG. If boudica happens to be alive we push for her.
Naturally, if khaan is on our side and can actually kill (doubtful) this changes the variables. I think our best hope is to push for a solo LG lynching. However, this will kind of be difficult to achieve as the only ones that are voting him for the moment are you and I.
The worst possible combination would be a Sasaki/boudica double lynch.

When the godfather is lynched, their henchmen flee. Lynch LG, kill one someone at night...we are down to six. If khaan is on our side we win...otherwise we lynch boudica.

Okay, don't forget that our goal is to outlast town as well as mafia. If this round turns into an apocalyptic bloodbath then there will be a bunch of lurkers left... and me.
I think we should try to mess up the lynch tally at the end so that only Pizza is lynched. IRA whacks boudica at night, we hit a lurker. Lynch LG the next day.

hmm very interesting. Khaan is going to get lynched today I believe. What with andres claiming that godfathers can survive a kill attempt...
Also, I believe pizza guy is guilty. LG could still be the godfather though...in fact it fits with pizza's cop out "I just don't see the case on LG" and with LG protecting pizza guy all game. The kill choices fit pizza to a T. Suspicious of seamus--attempt on seamus. Mega suspicious of reenk--reenk gets killed. Suspicious of khaan, attempt on khaan. It was clear from the start that he'd read the wikipedia article which pever sent us. And his general attitude...less wild reconsidering of himself and others than in the other games.
However--I can see myself getting into a huge amount of trouble if I try to bring this accusation in thread. Because I don't think I can hide the fact that I'm only looking for Irish mafia. lol.
Ok. My plan is to do a big summary, and accuse khaan of being the english godfather and lord winter of being oswald, along with LG as the irish godfather and pizza as brendan.

Sasaki Kojiro--english henchman
Lord Winter
Seamus--donney
serierkhaan--possible ally
Diana Abnoba
boudica--innocent result
Sigurd--Wog
El Diablo--innocent result
diana--lord winter--pizza. One of these three is the grunt. If I had to pick, I'd say lord winter, for his fake lurking despite having read carefully dealio. I'd pick LG for godfather. Ideally, none of us will die tonight. If so, there will be 8 alive, and lynching the enemy godfather will win the game (if khaan is our ally). If we lynch the grunt it's possible the "kill in first" rule still applies and we can hit the godfather before he kills us...
Of course, we could also lynch a townie and two more townies could die at night, leaving khaan to decide the game. Lol.
Depending on who dies...might push a lord winter lynch.

13 alive. Let's say we kill seamus to be safe, WE's isn't the godfather, and sigurd get's wog'd. The irish target seamus as well, that would leave 10 alive. Now, to kill 4 more, we would have to lynch a townie, then kill the irish godfather and hope they don't kill one of us. Now, if we kill someone other than seamus, it gives us an extra shot at the godfather and we have 9 alive the final day...so we can lynch the godfather OR his grunt OR a townie and still have a chance at victory that night. Ugh, too many possibilities.
-edit-
Yes...it's much easier if WE's is the GF. Then we win with one more lynch, a sigurd WoG, and a khaan kill. The only way that khaan's role really makes sense is if he can choose sides.

I know this is reaching somewhat, but I still want to be cautious:
We're not sure of the Detective's particulars. Yes, I was found innocent, and Ituralde guilty, but that was on the one night he killed. If Seamus investigated Ituralde on an off night, there might have been an innocent result on him. Which means there's still a chance of him being grunt.
QUESTION TO PEVER: Can we get clarification on this?
Anyway, I think it goes without saying that we should give Pizza a breather next night phase :P
SasakiPerson was signed in when posted 118
03-27-2009 05:26 PM ET (US)
Pizza's got himself all confused.
Anyway, here's how I see it. WE was found innocent by the detective and therefore can only be the godfather if he's mafia. He claims I've only been going after Irish killers while ignoring english ones. He would have no way of knowing who I was going after if he was a townie.
If he's mafia, we lynch the IRA godfather and they can't kill you.
If he's townie, he gets in major hot water for a suspicious comment, and it's revealed that you aren't the detective which should protect you at night.

Need to think about this.
If we think WE is Irish, then if I move to lynch him, my cover is blown as to how I nailed Ituralde. Additionally, names are revealed upon lynch, which means that there's no reason a PO'd IRA will off me for revenge (unless he's Godfather).
I think the better move would be for me and WE to play innocent with each other until later on. If he's truly a mafioso he will be lobbying for the IRA to leave me alive since he believes I'm wrapped around his little finger.
-edit- New quote of the game, courtesy of an ATPG PM:
"I've been convinced for a while you're a pro-town role, speaking on behalf of the detective. Ever since your Ituralde pick, which I wholeheartedly supported because he was acting as scummy as they came.
If you want me to back off Reenk, I will, without hesitation. You and Seamus are the only ones I am willing to listen to. I don't know if you're Donney or Davey or James or Joe or Jimmy or Jackie or Mairead herself, I don't care. My vote is your vote. Tell me where to move. I don't care if you're a basic townie; your instincts are too good.

Really, that's very suspicious. No townie could say that I was only looking at irish killers. I think townie GH would be suspicious of it. White_eyes has been a bit off this game too. Your call whether to pm him for a little longer to get info, but it should be posted in thread with an accusation.

White_eyes is getting suspicious of you, Sasaki:
WE: I feel that Sasaki is a Godfather.....Proof other then "Sasaki is always guilty?"
He has been focusing on the Irish killers.....but hardly touched the English ones....I also think he has Reenk as a grunt.....tough guys to get lynched without a detective reveal
GH: Personally, I'm surprised that Sasaki hasn't been investigated yet... unless he's the one that's been forwarding the results to Lemur.
Need to go back and check the thread. One does not simply accuse Sasaki without a good case. Although, the question is, if I go back and check and don't like what I see, do I use any evidence or just do what I did with Ituralde?

I'd agree with a diana kill...but it just seems like both the families are drawing a blank on finding other mafia. Look at the list of kills--not a single high profile player has been killed. I'm tempted to strike at andres.

Heh...atpg went whole hog after reenk as the author of the Oswald write ups.
"As the town gathered again in the morning, the talk was not of the murders, but of the current rumour. "Donney's alive and 'ere ta 'elp, watch 'is space"."

Sorry about that guys. My offline/online pattern was just wrong for this game. Had the arguments come earlier I would have gone for the Mairead claim but now there's not enough time left. I hope we'll at least gain something from it. I wish you the best of luck.
I shouldn't have reacted so spooked on GHs claim but I was already too focused on the Mairead claim and thought I could afford to look afraid of lynching to explain my later claim.
Oh well, it's been a pleasure playing with you two...

The way seamus talks I would guarantee you he is the detective. So that's that settled.
Other thing though GH, you aren't getting any suspicion at all. The other family is going to think you are the detective...we can't take that risk. You should confess that lemur forwarded your results. Say you have to go and you don't want to risk ituralde not getting lynched.
Think we got some good distance between me and khaan today. Lousy distance between me and ituralde, but that had to be done.

I'm worried about you becoming a target for the other mafia. If it looks like you could be the detective you could get killed.
It might be the best move to reveal that lemur has been forwarding results to you, but that you aren't sure of the legality or legitimacy of the results--because technically as a townie you couldn't be sure they were accurate. You could put it together in a nice "townie who believes in openness" package.

Well, we don't want to pass one of us off as detective because then the other mafia will kill us.
You should pull out the mairead claim either right after a definite detective claim, or if it looks like you're sure to be lynched.
You should say you kept protecting seamus because of the succesful protection, but that you wanted to know who you were protecting...you haven't read the play plot.
You show up as guilty because you can only win if all the town dies and your character wants to be a terrorist. However all you have is protection ability, you can't kill.
Trying to pass yourself off as innocent won't work...
From the write ups, khaan seems to have joined us.
-edit-
3 IRA mafia--other guys
3 brits--us
2 other roles--khaan, padraic
3 protown--donney, davey, mairead
So, seamus is still the detective I take it...working by means of the cat or something? Pever implies that he reassigned the davey role to someone.

03-25-2009 04:57 AM ET (US)
Argh.. I was afraid something like this might happen. I was thinking about this when I wrote the kill that I might only be guilty if I murder. Ah well...
I'll try my best and reserve the Mairead claim for last. Any and all help is appreciated though. Outside the thread of course, don't intend to pull you down with me.
List of people I protected:
Night 0: Not yet able to protect
Night 1: Sasaki Kojiro - known player, protected him first last time I was doctor and it worked
Night 2: Seamus Fermanagh - also known player, irish name
Night 3: Seamus Fermanagh - obviously has a role, might be pro-town might not be, that's why I wanted him to reveal in the thread
Night 4: Mh... Seamus again or somebody else, can't decide yet... - either same reason as Night 3, or another shot in the dark
Pro-Town now since obviously my victory conditions are screwed with Padraic being dead. Guilty possibly a result of me shooting at Seamus. Or should I not acknowledge the detective as being real and present it as a Mafia plot to off me? Also the British might just kill me come the next Night phase. We'll see how long I last.

Nasty. I don't believe what Ituralde did was suspicious and said so in thread, which I'll have to back up tomorrow, but can't defend him to harshly because then I'll look guilty...may have to lurk a bit.
Ituralde, you should use the mairead claim.
Hello [your name].
You have been randomly selected as
Mairead, Davey's younger sister.
Though only 16, you dream of joining the IRA and becoming a terrorist. Your hero is
Padraic, who had to leave the IRA because he was too radical. Nevertheless, you worship Padraic and can't wait to see him.
Each night, you may choose to protect one person with your air rifle. After day 3 when he Padraic arrives, you will be informed who he is and may attempt to join with him. If he accepts you two will fall in love, and your fates will be tied together.
To win, you must be the only two left alive.
Good luck.

Oh no, I like it. I'd rather have a little suspicion on me with nothing to back it up then to get to late game and have people pull out the "but...he's just TOO innocent!!" card...that one's a killer.
A real detective would have either claimed, or stopped trying to telegraph it after round one. Khaan remembers how closely we pored over his posts in GF3, he'd be patient enough to wait until he got killed and it was revealed he had a rolename. Plus...with seamus as donney, I'm thinking he could derail any "khaan is detective" talk.

hmm, bugs me a little that he gave 4 investigation results when we've had three nights, but it's possible he got one in before day one and it doesn't make sense as a mistake.
No need to tell him our names...though since he knows you he knows most everything. If he can find both godfathers and choose who to ally to, or if he just made the role up...well...cat's out of the bag.
If he's telling the truth and can get us an extra kill at night, then he's an awesome ally and we should treat him as such. That would make the final round have 11 alive instead of 8, if we all survive and get rid of the IRA--who should become our primary target I think. Seamus must be the pro-town detective in this case.
Having a protestant sympathizer but no catholic one would seem to unbalance the game a bit.
3 pro town--donney(seamus), davey(gaelic--sorry pever), maireed (would like to kill).
2 other--(padraic, khaan)
Now, perhaps donney can only find the brit grunts...

GeneralHankerchief: then you'll excuse me for being paranoid about you
seireikhaan: well, this is mafia :P
seireikhaan: paranoia is a big part, obviously
seireikhaan: but that's what I was given
GeneralHankerchief: it's a very simple thing to change a certain word or two of a PM, especially when one sent it in two minutes and not 30 seconds
seireikhaan: what can I say, I got big PM box(500)
seireikhaan: and I'm a slob

seireikhaan: granted, I still got about 250 of it free :P
GeneralHankerchief: so, if I'm not mistaken, there's not much you can do for me until the certain point in the game comes
seireikhaan: I had no idea AM's got such giant boxes
seireikhaan: pretty much
GeneralHankerchief: okay
GeneralHankerchief: I surmise that, if you are lying, you're unable to kill me
seireikhaan: most likely, you won't be seeing anything new for a few days
GeneralHankerchief: because if that were true, you would have done so already and we wouldn't be having this conversation right now
seireikhaan: pretty much
seireikhaan: if I was anti-godfather and had the ability to kill you, I would have done it :P
GeneralHankerchief: right
GeneralHankerchief: however, you might be able to get my grunts
seireikhaan: ah, but that's the thing
seireikhaan: I can only investigate for the godfather
seireikhaan: I have no idea who your grunts are
GeneralHankerchief: but if I tell you them...
seireikhaan: you could simply give me fake names and see if they die
GeneralHankerchief: pointless now that you made the suggestion :P
seireikhaan: hehe
GeneralHankerchief: okay, here's how we'll do it:
seireikhaan: alright then
seireikhaan: woop, didn't notice the colon
GeneralHankerchief: I'm not going to give you access to our secret lair, or the names of my grunts
seireikhaan: ok
GeneralHankerchief: in return, I'll tell my grunts to stay away from you
seireikhaan: I suppose that could work
GeneralHankerchief: when the time comes in which you're useful, I'll send down the kill orders for the night
seireikhaan: ok
seireikhaan: I must say, it has been interesting re-reading the thread and seeing what you post
seireikhaan: you're mafioso skillz have improved
GeneralHankerchief: hehe, thanks
GeneralHankerchief: so I assume you investigated me last night?
seireikhaan: yes
GeneralHankerchief: who did you hit before that?
seireikhaan: first night
seireikhaan: shlin
seireikhaan: second night
seireikhaan: boudica
seireikhaan: then YLC
seireikhaan: and you
seireikhaan: I would like YLC to die, btw
GeneralHankerchief: can I see pever's feedback PM for somebody besides me and then me as well?

To surmise I think we should let him do his thing for us when the time comes for maybe a round or two, and then kill him just to be sure.
I also think that because of this, we should save Ituralde for when the time comes to kill khaan. Maybe let Oswald kill everybody up until then (although Ituralde can still write the kills if he wishes).
What do you guys think of this?

I think the IRA might have taken care of our Lemur problem for us by offing CA. He was another one that had a high probability.
Anyway, this whole thing significantly decreases khaan's chances of being Detective and thus having anything solid on Sasaki.
FWIW, Greyblades was my third choice as grunt behind you two guys. Maybe somebody else was thinking along the same lines.

I guess going for Alexander is okay this time, since it'll be very difficult to trace him back to us. The only one that might say anything is White_eyes himself (and possibly Alexander, if he's our man).

I bet pever gave them names. We just had to make ours up because we aren't in the play.
As for the kill, I already sent one in for tonight. Respect to GH and all, but I think we should go after potential detectives as hard as we can.
Don't think it would damage our standing to have another name in there. It's not like we can pretend that so-and-so who got lynched was oswald and that's why he isn't sending kills anymore.
Do you think you might get ID'd based on writing? I think I disguised mine decently. If you want the next kill it's yours.

1) Should we keep sending in the kills via Sasaki? Would it benefit us if another name was thrown into the ring or damage our standing?
2) Do you think pever named the IRA thugs or were they given the same choice we had? If the second is the case, the IRA thug could be someone who knows the play, why else would he have chosen Brendan has his name?

Good call. Both Backroom frequents, both very old-timers that played together but haven't done much recently.
If I'm in the loop we should definitely leave him alive for a while at least. Let him do our work for us.
Another blow to to the pro-town network idea, muahahaha.

The problem with that plan is one, there's always the possibility that it ends up looking staged and two, with how obvious khaan is being, if he's the detective people will say that it was known that I was a goner...that would end up making you look more suspicious than anything.
Unfortunately pever says both families attempting a kill won't break through doctor protection.

I have another idea.
If you survive a few rounds without having to reveal, I'm going to post a big long case against you. I've already started to collect a few posts of yours that I would find suspicious under normal circumstances so it won't look too forced.
You can fight back for a bit, and then if the rest of the town is following my lead you can do your fakeclaim as whatever role we want out of the way (probably Mairead). That role will counterclaim and then we'll be able to blast 'em out of the way.

Ahahaha, I love khaan...hmm I guess I'll need a new fakeclaim. Maybe I can tweak the mairead one.
-edit-
Yeah, if khaan posts as detective saying he has a guilty on me, I'll post the mairead claim. Maybe flush the real mairead out, get rid of pesky doctor type. Not worried about my survival.
For tonight, don't think we can risk taking a shot at seamus. The other mafia probably won't try for him again. I'll ask pever about the double kill thing anyway, so if things go awry and I get lynched I can suggest in the thread where the other mafia see.
Andres might be a good kill for tonight. I want to reread him though.

^^I'm confused...taka appeared to have a role in appeasing padraic who is already dead. But like I said, I don't think they're going to go for a seamus lynch.[/edit]
I think taka did have a role...pever added something to my kill:
"The cat just decided to go walking."
Now...I think in the play donney or davie tries to cover a cat in shoe polish to make it look like wee thomas. So this might have something to do with it.

03-21-2009 04:01 PM ET (US)
Well...he has an irish name and was targetted by the Irish mafia. That pretty much clears him of being mafia. The only way he could be guilty would be as a neutral type role and I don't buy that. Can't imagine him getting lynched.

Arg, mairead appears to be a doctor. I guess that bit in my fake pm about protecting people with her air rifle was the truth.
Now a question for PEVER: if both families target seamus will he die despite maireads protection?
[snip]
from a wikipedia link. James, Christy, Joey--only two of those can be the IRA. I'll check and see which to and then make a fake claim for the third.

"If Taka was telling the truth to me yesterday, then I believe we are all royally boned.
He wanted me to help him find someone called Davey I believe (deleted all my PMs) and said that if he could not find Davey, and he died, some kind of massive serial killer would run loose."
hmm, and pever added a last bit to my kill "The cat just decided to go walking." so this was apparently true.
The FC quote is "I wanted seamus to die" which seems a lot less incriminating to me. My fake claim is getting more and more useless though, lol.

Certainly we want to go after mafia in thread.
I'm actually half hoping khaan has a guilty on me. Of course killing him is the last thing we want to do--if he's the detective I get lynched anyway and we lose someone who can find the enemy mafioso, and if he's plain townie I'd get lynched because he acted that way to see if I'd kill him. Of course there's always the chance the other mafia noticed and off him...bah. An early exit for me means I don't have to dance around any cases that get made on you two.

a) ignoring each other

AVSM's supposed role PM:
Hello AVSM.
You have been randomly selected as Padraic, son of Donney. For more character information, check out the story that is going to be put up soon, as a prelude to the game starting.
As for in game functions, you are the Serial Killer. Starting from Night 3, you may kill one person per night. You must write up the kill and send it to me. You will be named in this kill as Padraic, your character. Your name will also be revealed if you are killed or lynched.
To win, simply be the last one left alive, or one of two with Mairead. You receive no bonus for finding out who Mairead is, its just someone you know to be innocent and one you do not have to kill.
If you have any questions on strategies or how to play, feel free to ask.
Good luck.

I'm working on a fake claim of "Mairead" who would have united with padraic when he arrived. One version will have us being anti-english and anti-IRA (for use if about to be lynched), another can have "anti-everyone" for use if a detective comes up with a guilty result...it can be claimed that since padraic is dead Mairead is not a threat. Maybe give her doctor power over padraic.
I'd like to see your role pm gh so I can get some of the wording worked out better.
-edit-
Hello [your name].
You have been randomly selected as
Mairead, Davey's younger sister.
Though only 16, you dream of joining the IRA and becoming a terrorist. Your hero is
Padraic, who had to leave the IRA because he was too radical. Nevertheless, you worship Padraic and can't wait to see him.
Each night, you may choose to protect one person with your air rifle. After day 3 when he Padraic arrives, you will be informed who he is and may attempt to join with him. If he accepts you two will fall in love, and your fates will be tied together.
To win, you must be the only two left alive.
Good luck.
pevergreen
-------
Ok...here's a claim for use if a detective claims to have a guilty on you. It's nice because it explains the guilty yet you are powerless now that padraic is dead. Of course it can still get counterclaimed...but whatever.
For the pro-town version (for use in absence of a guilty result), just delete the part about "outnumbering the town". I don't think it can be made into a detective type role although that would be useful.

Ah, looks like we nailed "padraic". Sorry AVSM to kill you right off in your first game, but it looked from your edit like you had a role and I guess you did.
Heh, the other mafia killed Jolt who was one of our top picks. The must have someone reasonably good on their team.
"Padraic has left the IRA as it's not militant enough for him and when we meet him first, he's quite cheerily torturing a pot dealer who sells to school kids. The scene is both horrifying and funny as Padraic prepares to slice off the dealer's nipple (of his choice) after already having taken off two of his toenails. This jollity is interrupted by a phone call from Padraic's father Donny, who has been caring for his son's beloved cat Wee Thomas. Wee Thomas, we know, has been killed in an unfortunate accident and panic is spreading through the village as everyone knows what Padraic is capable of when he is seeking justice and revenge. Sure enough, Padraic returns home in haste and is met at the ferry dock by young Mairead, who fancies herself a rebel-in-training and idolizes Padraic, and the two of them fall instantly into passionate love. As Padraic tries to find out what has happened to Wee Thomas (and is preparing to execute his father and Mairead's layabout hippie brother Davey on suspicions of a cover-up), the tables are turned when he himself is taken by the splinter group he has splintered off from. His crime? He is too radical and too violent even for this ultra-radical and ultra-violent terrorist branch of the IRA! So he is marched out to be shot, but his love Mairead comes to the rescue (we've already learned she's blinded a herd of cows with her air rifle, so it's not too much of a spoiler to find out that she can do the same with wanna-be executioners). There follows from here a climactic scene of unending gore as Padraic and Mairead take out the now-blinded trio of assassins and then force Donny and Davey into cutting up their bodies for disposal."
I guess it's good we offed padraic?

Well, I think the town hates both of us equally though.
Any claim will have to be "mairead" or "davey" characters from the play...we don't know what they are of course. The problem with claiming detective is, if we're believed we're dead anyway. Unless there is a doctor to protect us from the other mafia. This also lends a lot of credibility to any actual detectives claiming.
I actually haven't written a pm yet since I don't see a big advantage in claiming one. It's probably suicide and the actual role might realize that and not counterclaim...

I've been doing some thinking. Even though there are technically two mafia factions, we're the only "true" one. The IRA and the pro-townies are both pro-town, even though the town needs to get rid of both of us. Seems like being an IRA agent is being a thankless job.
Anyway, I'm thinking a roleclaim as an IRA agent may be a bit more believable than your standard Detective or something. Sure, it's part of the town's victory condition to lynch IRA people, but if need be we could convince them to hold off for a while and even cooperate with the pro-town roles.

So I probably won't use the detective claim...I'll probably claim to be masons with two other people, one of whom appears guilty to investigation like me and has vigilante power while the other appears innocent...lol
We should also consider who is a likely choice for the IRA grunts. But actually, I'm not sure we want to kill them at night...arrg.

You have been chosen as the British "grunts" by your Godfather GeneralHankerchief.
As a duo, you get single kill per night phase. It is up to one of you to write that kill up and send it to me. It may only feature one person in it, they will also be named. To that end, you must both PM me with suitable English names for use in game. GH has chosen Robert Frank, however, you do not need a surname.
If one of you dies, the other shall continue with one kill per night. If GeneralHankerchief dies, you both will try to escape Inishmore, resulting in your death. Keep him alive at all costs.
To win, defeat the IRA and outnumber the town.
