The Godfather, Part 2 [Concluded]

[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?

Now that is interesting. Who were they?

I know when I set up kills wanting the town to think a certain thing I was careful not to mention it. These mafiosos may not have been so careful though.

Would that be our players with the hidden profile activity?
Could our Godfather have chosen two of the three players that have chosen to hide their activity level?
Since Kommodus is playing, it could be the Godfather is afraid of getting caught beacuse of someone monitoring pm activity.
Our Godfather could even be Kommodus.

Awaiting a mafia visit this coming night.

Hey, there's a thought. Since Kommodus found the mafia so quickly last game, he'd be a good choice for mafioso.

Don C:

I see you're clambering up the learning curve nicely. I knew I pushed to save you for a reason.

Let me look up the twain....

[Sigurd]

I just read through the posts that I have missed since before the weekend.
I got to hand it to you guys. This game has been quite entertaining, fascinating even.

We are at a point of no return. We need to bet on a horse here. I am inclined to bet on the GH/Myrddraal horse. Even though GH’s confession has its apparent flaws I am willing to believe it (62342 do spell MAFIA btw. I am thinking of the double-Dutch on Sasaki).
If it hadn’t been for the constant posting of a certain LYNCHED player who has a HIGH probability of being MAFIA, I would have had problems swallowing the camel presented by GH.
And why… townies did you lynch GH when the town would be better served if you had lynched me instead? I am also listed Sasaki’s list of highly suspicious players. A grave mistake has been done, orchestrated by the one I previously advised you from listening to. All logic says that he is probably mafia.
Do you see Kommodus or any of the other lynched players actively post their theories?
No, because we shouldn’t take advice from they and they realise this.

If we bet on the horse that GH has put forth there are 4 players on GH’s list left.
Csar
Masy
Seamus
Husar

Personally I believe there are only two Mafiosi left. Not 4 as Sasaki try to make us believe. He is planting a seed of doubt as to whom they might be. Are there any obvious clues we are not seeing here? Who amongst these 4 would have chosen Sasaki as Henchman?
I am inclined to believe that Csar is our man…

Vote:Csar

Ok I looked it up and the system doesn't work the way I thought it did. The fact that GH noticed that makes me think he wrote it that way on purpose though. I like how you also fail to mention that it is an American number, and don't address any of the other obvious flaws in the pm.

No, because we shouldn’t take advice from they and they realise this.

NONE of you ever give reasons why you think I'm guilty beyond that I'm accusing you and I've been guilty in the past. The best you can seem to come up with is that none of the other lynched players are posting much, which doesn't work because they are posting some, and I always post a lot.

And why… townies did you lynch GH when the town would be better served if you had lynched me instead? I am also listed Sasaki’s list of highly suspicious players.

What logic. Specify.

Vote:Csar

I don't believe there are 4 mafia left, I said so in my last post. I said I don't have any explanation for that sentence. I hope Silver would have told me if it didn't mean anything.

You also just voted Csar for no reason. Nice. He would have chosen me after I got investigated first round last game? You have to actually give a reason why he would have chosen me you know.

[Sigurd]

*Muffled mumbles*

*Holding both ears*
LALALALALALALALALA … I AM NOT LISTENING TO A LYNCHED PLAYER!!!! LALALALALALALALA

Well it's up to the town whether they want to trust someone who won't even respond when someone points out the flaws in their logic. Neither GH nor Myrddraal have responded to my questioning them why GH said they didn't investigate Ignoramus when he had previously claimed they had. I'm not going to let that kind of thing stand. Make a claim, contradict yourself, and then not respond to any reasoning while making up excuses to vote other people? Come on. Sigurd has been voting people on poor reasoning all game, compare this to Cosa Nuova where he sniffed out Xiahou with ease.

The first round is all just speculation, there is not really much to go on at all. However certain Mafia members in other games have made mistakes in their first couple of posts, so it is something to bear in mind, especially in round two.

By the way, my role has no privileges or hindsights like the detective. All I do is PM Silver Rusher on how I want the lynched person to be executed!

So far, everyone is keeping their cards close to their chests.

[Don Corleone]

Is there a gap between when the mafia select their targets and when voting closes?

It would be really interesting to make a really strong argument to lynch somebody, but wait until after they've sent in their kill orders for the day. If the following day the arguer dies, you'll know the person they were trying to prosecute was guilty (mafia will be thinking 'whew, just barely made it. Better get him out of there before he does me any real damage'). If I get picked off tonight.... seek the two who speak as one .

Who are your two? Cause I count three.

Dangerous ground. Anyway the mafia officially choose there kills up to a day after the voting closes. Sometimes sooner. But in your scenario you can't rule out coincidence. People argue against someone who is innocent, then die, this happens all the time.

[Silver Rusher]

Evening in the Gameroom.

Chief of Police Divine Wind rolled his eyes as he was handed the tally with the votes on it. He was only a single vote away from being in a tie with Drisos. Surprisingly for a first round, however, not a single person had voted not to lynch anyone. Most of them had abstained.

"Very well," he began with a loud voice to the expectant crowd, "Those of you who didn't abstain (he rolled his eyes again) chose to lynch Drisos. As this is the case, we have brought in a special guest to deal with the execution." He pulled a dirty cloth from what looked like a large chair next to it.

"This is the electric chair." DW began, gesturing to the machine, "All we need to do is put Drisos in the chair," he grabbed Drisos and forcefully shoved him into the electric chair, "Then, we strap him in," he said, before following his own instructions, "Then, place a damp sponge on his head," he took out a kitchen sponge from a bucket of water and squeesed it, before putting it on Drisos' head, "Finally, we place electrodes on his body and pull the switch." Electrodes were clumsily placed on Drisos' head and legs, and DW pulled the switch.

Nothing happened.

"Hmm, must have forgotten something..." he said, flipping the switch back and forth frustratedly, "Maybe the electrodes went on the wrong way round." He switched the electrodes and pulled the switch. Again, nothing happened.

"You need to shave his head and legs!"

Ignoring this, DW then mused, "Perhaps the sponge isn't damp enough."
He clumsily picked up the bucket and poured it on Drisos' head, which became soaked along with his clothes and body, "There we go. Maybe I need to turn up the voltage, too." He changed the voltage from 2,000 to 5,000. "That should do it."

DW pulled the switch, and after the water vapourised Drisos' body caught fire.

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGHHH!!!" He screamed in agony and spasmed uncontrollably for a few seconds, even breaking the flimsy metal cuffs and landing on the floor. Although he died quickly, his body remained on fire for a long time afterwards, along with the chair itself which had already been reduced to a crisp.

"Woops..." DW turned around the bucket to see "Spare Diesel for Car" scribbled on the back." He flinched when he saw this.

"Err... go home everybody. Nothing to see here." DW backed away slowly, before starting to run.

Abstain: 11 votes

PMs please guys.

[Don Corleone]

Now isn't that a pisser. The mafia is screwing with us... they didn't kill anybody this round, just letting us do their dirty work for them. Poor Drisos, we hardly knew ye.... Hey, Chief, invest in some eyeglasses, huh?

[Csargo]

Let's see if I can explain this.

There are two seperate times in the game. One is daytime when we vote to lynch people. Second is night time when the mafia kill people and the Detectives investigate I think. Hope that helps

Alright Donny boy,
There is two phases to a day.. the night where the mafia kills - the day when the townies lynch...

Day 1:
Lemur and Ultrawar is killed during the night
Drisos is lynched during the day.

Day 2:
night is soon upon us.


[edit]:damn Csar... do you do this often?

[Csargo]

[edit]:damn Csar... do you do this often?

As much as I can.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

That was quite gruesome.

[Don Corleone]

But quite imaginitive!

So, around this time tomorrow night is the next night phase, and we'll find out who's the next mafia kills? Okay, I got it. The 'night' and 'day' were throwing me. So each 'night' happens every other real day, with 'day' thrown in every other day, on the off day, as well?

And then there are "leap days" in which the amount of time in the day is reduced by a certain amount according to the percentage of the moon that is currently visible. Today is Wednesday, right?

Abstain: 11 votes
Drisos: 3 votes
Divine Wind: 2 votes
GeneralHankerchief: 2 votes
Dutch_guy, theRTWGuru and Ignoramus: 1 vote each

Hmmm... I've got a different tally:
Drisos: 3 votes (Me, Sasaki, Crazed Rabbit)
Don C: 3 votes (Drisos, RTWGuru, Sir Moody)
Divine Wind: 2 votes (Major Robert Dump, Xiahou)
GHC: 1 vote (Peasant Phill)
Dutch Guy: 1 vote (BKS)
RTWGuru: 1 vote (Husar)
Ignoramus: 1 vote (Ignoramus)

This means there should be a re-vote based on the tie.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

My tally is off too. I had counted Byz-Knight and thought it 4 drisos from that. Silver?

[Drisos]

Ignoramus: 1 vote (Ignoramus)

Thanks m8! I might even survive!

I missed Don on the list as well... and he had 3 votes iirc. I claim a tie! Bring me back from the dead!

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Yeah, ByzKnight isn't playing. Or perhaps Silver was posting while Drisos was changing his vote.

Anyway, Don, Myrddraal mentioned the Lemurs enemies thing as well.

[Death Match]

R.I.P the dead. May our detective find the mafiosi quickly....

Wooooah!

Hang on, is it just me or is the voting here wrong again? Should this not be between Drisos and Don? I just went back and could only see two votes for myself, so why am I up for a vote anyway?

I think youve counted it up wrong SR.
