The Godfather, Part 2 [Concluded]

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

Wow, there really is very little to go on here. I think voting on the basis of Lemur being killed is a really poor idea, as he's such an obvious kill for a frame-up, which is what the mafia always try to do in the opening rounds. I'm tempted to vote for Don, since if I was the Godfather I would be completely unable to resist picking him as a henchman. However, the Godfather probably isn't as silly on that front as me, so I might hold off on that one for a bit.

So far the most compelling argument I've heard is Sasaki's, suggesting we try and pick someone the Godfather would. With this in mind, I Vote: Doc_Bean. He never seems to attract any suspicion, and I'd choose him if I was doing the choosing.

Edit: Ha, Doc isn't actually playing. Ok. No Vote: Doc_Bean, Vote: Dutch_Guy. Again, he's someone who never seems to draw suspicion.

[Silver Rusher]

Just a thought for those voting DW. If we lynch the CoP will he be replaced? If not, we probably don't want to go about killing him just yet.

Silver?

That's right.

Aren't I in?

Woops... very sorry about that. It is probably because you posted at the same time as my 2 and a half hours left message, so I didn't notice it. Unfortunately, there wouldn't be any point at all in letting you in now as everyone would know you are innocent and you would be killed straight away by the mafia.

Maybe I should put this as a note in future games I host: If you sign up and aren't put on the list, please, please tell me so I can correct it. I was able to do this with Divine Wind even though he posted after the sign-ups should have been closed because I hadn't chosen the roles yet. So, maybe wait until a couple more people have had their names added to the list after you sign-up, and if yours hasn't chances are I will forget to add you to the game altogether unless you tell me.

[Major Robert Dump]

I may still reconsider my vote. Can the chief stop lynchings? I also suggest to our detective that the chief be the first person to be investigated.

[Major Robert Dump]

So the Chief will be replaced?

[Silver Rusher]

No, the chief can't stop lynchings. (that would be some poor democracy, don't ya think )

[Death Match]

That's right.

What do you mean? Byzantine_Mercinary is on the original list!

extract:

Seamus Fernanagh
Byzantine Mercenary
Evil_Maniac From Mars
Crazed Rabbit
Ignoramus

[Death Match]

Can't wait till the execution.........

[Major Robert Dump]

Byzantine Mercenary is innocent, as if he were mafia Silver would have recognized him as being in the game still I'm sure. I didn't seem to notice a Doctor in the rules list this game, cuz BM is gonna need one next round.

[Silver Rusher]

How does this keep happening? People are constantly getting confused between Byzantine Mercenary and ByzantineKnight. OK, fine, I admit I did as well in Komm's game. They are two different people, you know.

[Sir Moody]

yay im not alone i cant tell the two apart most the time

[Major Robert Dump]

I'm trying to confuse the mafia so they kill him and not me

[Major Robert Dump]

I think Byzantine Prince is the Godfather

[Husar]

You mean...same as last game?

I only read the last two threads, Cosa Nuova and the one before by GH.
And then I saw people here estimating about two kills until the end so I wanted to remind them.
And now I am wondering whether you were really surprised or very sarcastic towards a noob.
And I like this concept better actually.

Concerning my vote, well, it's really hard, isn't it?

Vote: theRTWGuru because Don is right and he is suspicious of Don.
I also want to promote my reasoning and vote to others because it is at the very least as baseless as any other.

And you always do ?

I'd argue at least half of the people in the game are rather anonymous players, and I don't even count myself in that group. So, of all the people who never garner suspicion in the games, you pick me ?

Now why would you do that, I wonder.

[Ignoramus]

Vote: Ignoramus

[Death Match]

As suspicions rise, the climax begins to climb. Who killed Ultra War? Why would anybody want to kill him? He could have helped made this more interesting.

[Big King Sanctaphrax]

And you always do ?

Well, I don't know, I'm hardly going to vote for myself though, am I? All I know is that you seem to project a sort of aura of town-ness, which is what I would look for in my henchmen as the Godfather-unless I was trying for a double bluff.

I'm the narrator!

[Sigurd]

I have to go through this thread to decide...
For now - Vote:Abstain

[Don Corleone]

So does anybody have a running tally thus far? I know I'm the leading candidate to be pushing up daisies in 5 hours, but what's my margin?

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Drisos = 4, Dutch., Don C & Divine Wind = 2

[Don Corleone]

Huzzah! I just might actually live through my first day in the game!

[Divine Wind]

Vote: Divine Wind

He's been consistently voting only a snowman and his vote in the past games. Why was he chosed CoP anyway? We have basically nothing to go on, so I'd like to see him lynched. (btw, I just thought of, will he PM Silver Rusher with the method he himself is lynched? )

There's nothing good (for now), and it's just too easy for him to continue his 'no-discussion' style of voting/posting, while being mafia. No one would notice.

Ah Driso's my friend, I stopped using the Snowman of Death in the current game of mafia, Mr Kommodus is running "Cosa Nuova" and until my death, I was posting quite a lot, about 10 posts I believe. Have a look, I contributed quite a lot, especially in the Kage/Sasaki saga. I did lurk in the previous games, only because currently I work 52 hours a week, and its hard to read and comment on every single post in detail.

But you are right, it would be a good cover, but I don't use it anymore as it brought me more suspicion than providing me with good cover.

I do hope the Detective will investigate myself this round, and see I am innocent. The only reason I ask this is because this is the first time in the mafia games ive had a role to play, so it will make it more interesting for me to play till the end

For now my vote will be Vote: Abstain until I see something that raises my suspicions.

[Proletariat]

Since everything is completely baseless so far, I'll Vote: Abstain for now, but will prolly pick a random person who's been voted for already before the dead line. After all, someone's gotta go.

[Masy]

Ignoramus:

Vote: Ignoramus

Why do people do this? They sign up for a game then act like they don't want to be in it. Either he's trying to be comical or he's in the mafia (which I doubt because anyone who's ever done this wasn't eg Kagemusha.) It vexes me.

Anyway, vote: Abstain as I have no grounds to base a vote on.

[Kommodus]

Vote: Abstain

Wow, I've never done that before. It feels... odd.

I'll have to come back and look over these posts more when I have more time. It shouldn't be too long, I hope.

[Don Corleone]

Does anybody else find it odd that with a little over 2 hours left to go, our chief of police, who himself has aroused suspicions in some, has had nothing to say?

But, he's far from the only one: Evil Maniac from Mars and Destroyer of Hope haven't had anything to say either. There's been several other folks who made 1 liners or talked about the randomness of it all (and yes, I know, I fall into that category too).

Still, before I change my abstain vote, I have one last question, before I go forward on my hunch.... can the mafioso PM each other or the Godfather to arrange their strategy of posting? Also, the selection of the Godfather was random, but he/she picked their mafioso (not random), correct?

Unfortunatly there are always a lot of lurkers

Yes they can. We had dozens of emails and a few IM conversations last game.

And the mafioso were picked.

Since your new to the game I'll try to help you out a wee bit.
I don't think the Police Chief really knows anything he just carries out the executions unless I missed something. DoH always seems to lurk in these games and I don't know about EMFM. I think they can communicate via PM. Yes SR said that the GF picks his own mafioso.

Dang Sasaki beat me too the punch.
Csar runs away and cries.

[Don Corleone]

Does anybody else find it odd that two people, not one, not three but two focused their argument on Lemur's old enemies?
