    I understand those of you who are annoyed because of the lurker victory. When I joined I was lurking a bit because I wanted to get into the game. Unfortunatley I got a whole lot of stuff to do (I'm writing this during biology class) and didn't really have time to play, altough I did as good as I could. Most kills was fairly random, but there was some thought behind them.

    I thought that Navarro was mafia, but when Glenn didn't vote himself when he was told to, I got sucpicious and changed my vote. Maybe not the best thing to go on, but I took a chance there.

    I thought I'd be killed when I didn't Death is yonder my role. I couldn't, because I was never told my cover role.

    I don't know why I wasn't lynched, you had reasons to. I got Olavi lynched for lurking... Oh well, a victory is a victory. Congratulations to everyone for a good game!

    After the Olavi lynch for lurking I was trying to be rather cautious in directing lynches. I only advocated lynching via evidence method as pizza informed me that there would be implications of killers in writeups that are linkable to their cover role names or their character names. I also rather.. empathized with your RL issues, having many project related issues from start game to mid late game, whereupon it conveniently vanished, providing me with time to search for several clues. In this, I suppose I'm rather glad that I was killed that night.

    Well, upon asking pizza if ghost detectives were encouraged, he told me that he would prefer if the town, who had been rather lazy thus far, would work it out themselves. As such I respected his wishes and stayed rather ambiguous and silent for the rest of the game. Eagerly anticipate the next game post exam , mafia has been a rather enjoyable few week experience thus far .

    I think my location is simple enough, it is a mix of Simpsons and Council of Villains!

    However, if this was a game like Capo III I would not dare do such a thing.
    Sasaki or Andres would have a bandwagon on you in minutes for details like that.

    But that is what surprised me in this game; players were not actively seeking to accuse others, and this made it easy for players such as myself to make strawman arguments, lynch townies and generally seem like your well-to-do town yokel.

    D.I.Y., I really appreciate your analysis towards the endgame, and I am almost sorry that I could not have genuinely played a part in it.

    This is the first time I have played as a Mafioso (A good way to start?) and this is my fourth overall game.

    Beaver, I understand your position and so I can only admire your good luck. You have taught a lesson to me.

    Well done Fixiwee too! Ein Oesterreicher deserves such a fine victory by the virtue of his nationality!

    I think only Beefy's Cow sig which says "it's always who you least suspect who is guilty" is a ballsier thing to keep associated with themselves while playing mafia games. Even I'm not that brave.
    I got that sig during the God Father III game. Terrible irony isn't it.. Since then I've been getting alot of mafia/ SK roles..

    Beaver wanted to drop out because he couldn't read and catch up on everything, so I asked him what his list of kills were, in order of priority, and told him to just vote every day phase and I'd already have his kill orders.

    Glenn was at the very bottom of that list. Were it not for being lynched, Glenn might have won.
    I'm glad to know that I wasn't killed because SideshowBob knew that I was the Don. Just a random kill

    Meaning I did a decent job being the God Father

    Well, I was comparing my situation to that of a detective reveal. When the detective reveals blah blah blah Mafia X gets lynched, he usually dies that night after the day phase. So I was like... I just organized the lynch and destruction of an entire family by extension, surely that mafia is going to take me down tonight...

    Yep, quite a decent job you did. My gut sense did not register you as rather scummy, just lazy townie. I suppose that is due to the fact that you delegate all the dirty work to your henchman . But I still barely trusted anyone as practically half our numbers were scum and I was wary of being misled, which I still fell prey to in the form of YLC

    I normally fit the criteria of "Bad quality... But active townie"
    When I'm "Lazy" then I think thats my tell

    Nice to have another great mafia player
    I'll see you next game

    Oh dear... Split?

    Split was the only active player left.
    I really was just maggie, a normal townie with no special abilities.

    Sadly in the end it was my undoing at the hands of bob, but I suppose I was just another vote for the town inthe end anyway.

    Good game I suppose, darn lurker victory seems like a cop out, but I suppose it's cool anyway :P

    Well, I stand corrected. Glenn caught me completely off-guard there. I had absolutely no idea he would turn out to be mafia in the end. I had the endgame strategy right (make sure noone gets killed during the lynch), but I took the wrong person as being innocent for granted. I thought for sure since Glenn had been invincible he couldn't be mafia- evidently it was really navarro who was innocent.

    I did, however, suspect Beaver for mafia as early as Day 6, I believe.

    Excellent game, ATPG... now we'll have to see how mine ends...

    Bravo, ATPG, bravo.

    I have to say, this game is extremely complexed, and for an average townie without any abilities I indeed had trouble gaining insights into the game. But this thread made a good read, even after death. Well done ATPG.

    Congratulations to all the winners, and commiserations to all the losers.

    It sounds silly but...

    no matter how complex the game, all you really have to do is show up and vote for who you think needs to be lynched for you to win. Sometimes people duel you or something, and you don't even need to know about that, it will happen to you eventually and you cant really stop it.

    Complex rules? In the end, it's just uninformed majority versus informed minority, or some variation on multiple families. Sometimes you get annoying, bogus games where the host wins or the mafia is actually on the side of the town or the game ends in total destruction somehow... (Golden Rule, Psycho, Treehouse) and it's always that darned Pizzaguy who's messing with the usual rules. Darn him and his overactive imagination and narcissistic inserting of himself into every game.



    God he bugs the heck out of me.

    bleh, most of the mafia were lurkers. A complete anti-climax for me.
    BLARGH!

    Great game, bravo!


    Always remember lynch the lurkers!

    I wanted so badly to post after my death, but I knew to much then, and was told not to post at all.
    It was killing me not being able to help the town, but it was very educational watching the posts after you knew who was who. Oooh the lies, so much fun to see the manipulation close up.

    Can't wait til the next game, oh no I'm hooked.
