A mafi(y)a game

[Kagemusha]

Well, he did make it up. On my request.

I told him to claim doctor. He was actually bulletproof.

He claims doctor and there's no doctor, he draws a nightkill, activates his bulletproof power.

He claims a doctor and there's a doctor, I am alive and the doctor tells me he's a liar. I then tell the doctor he's MY liar, and to keep his yap shut and protect me / someone who has a power role even though I do not / yes I do / no I don't / maybe.

He claims doctor and he's scum, he survives deep into the game for absolutely no reason, catches him as scum.

Simple simple. Best plan ever, except it was ruined by inactive town and scummy Iskander 3.1 the scumbag who scums while scumming up his scumness.

Classic Pizza behaviour. Revolving the game around yourself instantly.

Classic Pizza behaviour. Revolving the game around yourself instantly.

Oh, you mean how people flocked to me privately without me asking them to do so?

Classic town-that-never-ever-learns behavior.

One million roll eyes smileys inserted here.

Claiming bulletproof as bulletproof defeats the purpose of bulletproof.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Oh, you mean how people flocked to me privately without me asking them to do so?

This was going to happen with or without Pizza's involvement in the game. As soon as Zack flipped as mafia, Riedquat was going to become the nexus of townie activity. Pizza just happened to be the one who subbed in for him.

[Kagemusha]

Just an observation not critique. Just tell me who to vote from now on while i am alive.

[GeneralHankerchief]

So, what's everybody's ideal wishlist for what happens tonight? I'm particularly interested in knowing what Iskander, Csargo, and TexCat want to happen.

[GeneralHankerchief]

(Addendum: Taking the lame way out by saying "I hope the mafia get vigged or Wogged" etc. is not allowed. I want specific names of folks you want nightkilled by the mafia, people.)

[TexCat]

GenH, I'm not sure what you're asking?? I hope no one gets killed tonight? I hope Pizza finds us another scum and lives to tell about it? I can't imagine why you are asking this, or what you hope to learn. My vote was on Autolycus who I have to no reason to believe is town, but Iskander's vote of the claimed Doc looks pretty bad, especially after he said he was going to abstain from the tie-breaker "to maintain his innocence". Caring more about your innocent appearance than lynching the right person seems like a scum tell to me.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Assuming you're town, and assuming the mafia *do* kill tonight, who do you want them to kill?

[Kagemusha]

GH. I sincerely do not understand where you are trying to get with such information?

Apparently you and Pizza are presenting yourselves as the "speakers" of the townie network, which may mean either you are what you say you are or you are proxies.So either you might be protected or not. A risk for mafia in either case.

Now with your named special interest group namely Iskander, Csargo, and TexCat you are setting them either as lynch nominees or trying to hide them from the interest of mafia, thus getting them off the hit list. Possibly a dual purpose.

The rest of us are now cannon fodder:

landlubber
Double A
seireikhaan
Kagemusha
johnhughthom
autolycus

If i may be so bold. I am quite sure that this group is where the night kill is most likely to happen. Now i have no clue why should i have a wish for any of the players to be night killed, so i might as well hope that it will be me, as my usefulness is limited to my vote and most probably voting power will not become the main issue for the town in this game.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'm not part of any network. I have my own list of suspects, people I consider to be innocent, and people in the middle. The three people I mentioned are three of the folks on my "middle" list who I would like more of a read on.

[autolycus]

GM's notes:
@Double A: three days in a row not voting
@autolycus: two days in a row not voting

Need I replace you? Almost certainly. Do I have replacements? No.

As you said before, I voted yesterday, it was Double A that didn't. You don't need to replace me :)

[Kagemusha]

I'm not part of any network. I have my own list of suspects, people I consider to be innocent, and people in the middle. The three people I mentioned are three of the folks on my "middle" list who I would like more of a read on.

In such case. If there is an investigator around, you should know who to investigate next.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Now i have no clue why should i have a wish for any of the players to be night killed, so i might as well hope that it will be me, as my usefulness is limited to my vote and most probably voting power will not become the main issue for the town in this game.

Oh no, don't you dare die on me. You need to stay alive, at least until we get to the endgame.

[Kagemusha]

Uhmm...I dont know.I feel bit non protected at this point.Maybe the wily mafia will indeed kill me.

[El Barto]

As you said before, I voted yesterday, it was Double A that didn't. You don't need to replace me :)

I keep amending my own posts! I shoudl refresh instead of having the same page open in three tabs.
@Double A: where are you?

@dead people: is there any willing replacement?

[BSmith]

I suppose I could be a replacement.

[El Barto]

Good, you'll be in as of next phase (in 4 hours' time).

[Csargo]

So, what's everybody's ideal wishlist for what happens tonight? I'm particularly interested in knowing what Iskander, Csargo, and TexCat want to happen.

What's this? I hope I'm still alive when the day starts in a few hours? My suspicions have been pretty clearly stated. I'm a little miffed by how ATPG has taken over the thread tbh, but that's to be expected considering. I'm wondering what you're hoping to get from this question. Seems strange to me honestly.

Edit:wordz

[Double A]

I keep forgetting the org's a thing because I'm an idiot.

Tak I am shamefur dispray, and aporogize for this. Prease reprace me with BS or arrowh me to commit sudoku.

[El Barto]

GM-san preased to introduce Suspiciousry Simirar Substitute BSmith as new prayer.

One minute's sirence to honour death of Doubre A.

[GeneralHankerchief]

[El Barto]

NIGHT THREE

TexCat was found dead He was a townie!
Double A was inexplicably gone. In his place, someone who had an inexplicable resemblance to the late BSmith had moved into Double A's furnishings.

1. Zack, mafioso, lynched on Day Two.
2. Csargo
3. landlubber
4. Double A → replaced by BSmith II.
5. Visorslash, townie, lynched on Day One.
6. BSmith, townie, killed by the mafia on Night One.
7. GeneralHankerchief
8. Iskander 3.1
9. seireikhaan
10. Kagemusha
11. johnhughthom
12. Askthepizzaguy
13. autolycus
14. TexCat, townie, killed by the mafia on Night Three.
15. Ishmael, townie, killed by the mafia on Night Two.
16. Winston Hughes, townie, lynched on Day Three.

It is now Day Four.
Time remaining for this phase:

[GeneralHankerchief]

Huh, cool, I was going to vote TexCat this phase.

[Csargo]

That's an odd choice considering the suspicion against TexCat. Another one off the list I guess...

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'm starting to think we might be facing a Zack-Double A(BSmith now)-johnhughthom scum team. I'm probably WIFOMing this way too heavily, but just bear with me for a second.

These kills, particularly the most recent one, haven't really jived with who you would have expected to die at night. My own personal reactions have ranged from "huh, okay" to "wait, really?" Now, admittedly, the two explanations that do a better job of passing Occam's Razor than the one I'm about to offer are that the mafia are a) using random.org, or b) doing this on purpose to mess with us. However, I'm personally leaning towards a third, and that's the triumvirate I listed above.

We know that Double A has been inactive in this game and just had to be replaced out. He wouldn't be contributing to any kill selections. I know from personal experience that El Barto is very strict in terms of the "no participation after death" rule - I doubt that Zack would be allowed to make any suggestions or send in kills after his lynch. This leaves the third scummo as john, who, in the most recent game, according to khaan, was perfectly fine with sailing along and pretty much unilaterally approving of khaan's kill selections. I believe that, ignoring the other two options for a moment, out of the remaining playerbase, john would be the most likely to send in these kills without the benefit of any sort of peer review.

So it's 50-50 for me right now. In the meantime, I'll cast my vote just to get him in the thread and starting to give me data points to work off of:

Vote: BSmith

[Csargo]

I like GH's theory, so Vote:johnhughthom we'll see what happens.

[BSmith]

I would actually like to play this game, so I would prefer not to be killed just as soon as I get back into it.

As for the actual game... I need to get read up before I can offer any competent contributions...
