The Midgard Saga [Concluded]

[Don Corleone]

Edit: Nevermind.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

He did confirm that. Well this makes no sense at all then.

The people watching were still a bit nervous. Was this the last Jotun? Would they finally be untroubled this night?
The old man locked eyes with one in the retinue and smiled slightly. The man who hid his face in a cape made a slight gesture and the old man nodded.
Ravens could be heard not far from there.

haha, I guess the game doesn't end till morning? And andres-gh-caius really were the jotun? Sigurd, wackiness!

Oh well. This was amusing anyway

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Fact:

Jotuns may not attack/kill one another.


The Players:

Alexander the Pretty Good -- acclaimed King by Stig in PM to me; Odin raven research indicates some leadership role...but also followership.

Don Corleone -- claims veteran status (Survived Jotun Attack)

Husar -- Odin (Survived Jotun Attack)

Proletariat -- Udun (Survived Jotun Attack)

Seamus Fermanagh -- Hemidall (Survived Two Jotun Attacks)

Stig -- claimed to be AtPG's champion


Possibilities:

1. The game is already over, with a townie win, Jotuns being: CF, and 2 of the following: AtC, GH, JimBob.


2. Stig's PM was a fake, he's a jotun who purloined his PM from Warluster. 2 of the 4 above round out the Jotun.

2a. As 2 above, but PM created whole cloth and named Alex out of sheer luck (just using him as he was off th boards).


3. Don C is the last nobility, laying low for his health. In this scenario, both Stig and Alex are jotun, having fooled me with a well-placed PM.


4. Don C and AtPG are both nobility, and Stig is jotun.


5. This one requires us to streeetch belief and assume additional evil god in game-mix. This hidden evil god is working for the Jotun -- but who CAN be targeted by them as they are unknown to the bad guys. Thus we have two "goodies" and two "baddies" among the Gods. So....

5a. Don C is the hidden evil god, having fooled everyong and lurked shamelessly.

5b. Husar isn't Odin, but a bad guy. This would support the meaning of the Jotun's words in my first murder attempt survival -- (Loki's message?).


Off to bed.

[Husar]

haha, I guess the game doesn't end till morning? And andres-gh-caius really were the jotun? Sigurd, wackiness!

That's what I said before. Or wanted to say at least.

Husar, I'm a veteran. My Holmgang is 3. Even if I get protected, it will be 4. You're going to mop the floor with me. Why did you challenge me? Just to be a jerk? Or does Sasaki own you like a puppy now?

What are you talking about?
Where did I challenge you?
Actually, it was Sigurd who got me to the idea of killing you simply because he started talking about a serial killer yesterday when I wanted to know why the game wasn't over yet. Then there was of course the promising prospect of pure pwnage to be delivered in a nice fight that may or may not save the town.
Well, as it looks now, I never ever challenged you.
The only fear left now is that you own me like a puppy and to be precise, Sasaki got part of his info from me, don't try to make it look like I can't think for myself(actually, this makes you quite suspicious and manipulaticve again, I may actually challenge you later).

I set myself some clear objectives for this gameand the survival of all townies was actually not one of them, challenging you would be the secure way to make sure you are not some kind of insane war veteran who went nuts and became a serial killer. Because if you are, the game may be over next round. The only thing that stops me from challenging you is the end of what Sigurd wrote, where the old man smiles at someone with a cape(yes, one of them is supposed to be me) in addition to what Sasaki highlighted.

Apart from that, it's never personal but if you turn out to be a serial killer afterwards, I will personally hurt myself...somehow.

[Husar]

Proletariat -- Udun (Survived Jotun Attack)

It's Idun.

5b. Husar isn't Odin, but a bad guy. This would support the meaning of the Jotun's words in my first murder attempt survival -- (Loki's message?).

That's a scenario I thought about myself, but somehow it wouldn't really explain the role PM I got, I would have made up all the info I provided, faked Sigurd's mistakes and generally be a much better imposter than I really am. Additionally, I would have played the dark side with even more enthusiasm than I have as a good guy and that is very much against my nature but you cannot know that of course.
It would also mean that Loki never lied and I somehow magically found out who is a lord and who not and then created faked investigation PMs to send to my allies.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

It's Idun.

...busting on me for my weak spelling...in NORSE! I may have to holmgang you.


Hey, pal, there's a reason it' down at 5B. Heck, the only way it spins out for me is if you are the enemy of all -- serail killer style -- and having finished with the Jotun are now going after the rest. Possible yes, probable no.

[Don Corleone]

Wow, sleep depravation and fasting for Lent does crazy things to you, beyond just making you cranky as all hell. I could have sworn Sasaki goaded Husar into challenging me to Holmgang. I must have imagined the entire thing.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I do love being depicted as the evil and manipulative mastermind

[Husar]

Well, if I were more of a roleplayer, I would have challenged you now for insulting my intelligence in your previous post.
And like I said before, if anyone did that, it was Sigurd!
You know, things like this:

Husar it's either over or we're screwed
Sigurd maybe there is a serial killer
Sigurd maybe not

combined with this:

Munin who watched Tom Hagen had nothing much to tell except the man sitting awake in front of his tent all night cradling his sword.

can make you quite suspicious especially after I consulted a dictionary to find out what cradling means...

[Sigurd]

I thought I saw a challenge on page 51... hmm
I didn't make a note of it and there are some edited posts on that page.

Oh well ... No challenges so far.

[Stig]

Husar challenged Don afaik ... guess he withdrew it

[Csargo]

Challenge:Sigurd

Let's go Sigurd.

Interesting that you call out this conspiracy theory, but throw your own against me... Hypocrisy at it's finest.

Right now, I'm bracing for the next round. Ironically, I hope Sasaki Kojiro is right. AndersTheCunning is kinda suspicious, he sent me this PM just yesterday after I asked all pro-towners to reveal to Seamus Fermanagh:

I read your call to the townies to send their role pm's to Seamus. That's what I did... See what I gained : a lynching

Damn Sasaki with stupid theory about Jotun having townie pm's. Whether he is somehow pro-mafia or he is making one of his biggest mistakes in a mafia game ever.

And nobody seems intrested in my theory about Gods able to act like a doctor during Holmgang, granting a weak combatant extra powers (see the Berserk mode) so that he can win from a strong warrior... It would be far more logical than Sasaki's theory, but no, "Andres didn't go to Valhalla, so he must be Jotun"... blablabla



This game is frustrating me

Now, the thing that is suspicious is the fact that he PM's me. He does make very valid points on Sasaki Kojiro, and the general foolishness of putting to much weight on the stories, but still AndersTheCunning, why me?

If the Caius Flaminius/AndersTheCunning theory is correct, the we have won the game due to Ichigo going earlier in the game (I've not won one game yet you know...).

However, I'm just not so sure about that...

[Andres]

I pm'ed you since nobody pays attention to me. Everybody seems convinced that I am guilty, which is not the case.

I just thought you were feeling the same frustration as I am. So I didn't bother anymore to post in the thread.

I needed your shoulder to cry on, oh mighty Loki

[Kagemusha]

Seamus.I suggest you ask Stig for a little dance with swords involved so you can get rid of that jotun.

I don't think you're guilty, I just think you were suspicious to PM me.

Well, if what you say is true, you will be redeemed to your doubters in the end, like myself.

I just want to win a game. I have never been alive for a victory in the many Mafia games I have played. In this game, I don't need to be alive to win, but the town still has to win...

[Sigurd]

Challenge:Sigurd

Let's go Sigurd.

Ichigo was looking for trouble and scowled at the people he met. The people were afraid of Ichigo as he behaved like a crazed man.
Sigurd did not notice the mood of this fierce warrior on his way to pick a fight and bumped into him. “EXCUSE ME!!! Brother, I think an apology is in order; an apology worth 100 Gold crowns.”
Sigurd looked up and shook his head. “You must be insane or something. Go away before I hurt you.”
Ichigo smiled his sly smile. “Hurt me? HAHAHAHAHA. It is you that is insane. You can barely lift a child from the ground. How will you ever be able to hurt me old man?”
“You speak bold words young one, do you dare test this?”
“If I dare? Come on old fart let’s see what you got.”
The circle was drawn and the combatants got ready.
“Since you started this Ichi, I am going to choose weapons. Battle Axe it is.”
Ichigo took his axe and weighed it. “Good choice old man, prepare to die”.

Ichigo transformed into a hideous Jotun, He loomed over Sigurd laughing. “You will hurt me? That will be the day. Prepare to meet your mistress Hel.”
The old man dodged the first blow. “Quite fast old man, let’s see what happens when I turn the speed up a few notches.”
Ichigo moved like faster than any human and delivered slashes and blows that could cut a rock in twain.” The old man smiled: ”I see a worthy foe in you Jotun, you are not by chance Trym the strong?”
Ichigo stopped. “That is my name, who are you?”
The old man transformed and a large man with red hair and beard appeared. He cast the axe to the ground and from his belt unfastened a large battle hammer.
“Thor!!” exclaimed Ichigo.
“Let’s see what you can do Jotun.”
The large Jotun unleashed all his powers in his next moves and it was so fast that anyone watching saw nothing but a blur.
There was a loud bang, loud enough to make all around hear nothing but ringing for a long time.
On the ground lay Ichigo with a huge lump on his forehead.
Over him loomed Thor smiling. “Sleep well Trym, you’ll get a giant headache tomorrow.”
Thor laughed hard at his own humor….

I'm not going to challenge him myself, my 5 is no match for his 8 ... tho with a bit of luck, my winning change is 38%

btw shouldn't the night be over yet?

Beautiful, my brother Thor, I laugh with you...

Of course, some people aren't going to put value on this story at all, contradicting their criterion...

Also, I just wanted to clarify, I did win Mafia IV, but that was a somewhat a Black Hand (the first one) type game due to Kommodus's PM watching, so it doesn't really count.

I did win Interficio quod Scrupulosa though, and that was a very underrated and influential game (I'm going to make a themed game too because of Sir Moody's brilliant innovation.

I guess I am somewhat fulfilled, but I really liked this game too, and I want to win.

You see! Ichigo was Jotun.

Sigurd had enough time to write that story. I think he's just playing around I do believe the game is over.

[Csargo]

You see! Ichigo was Jotun.

Yep, you caught the tater.

[Andres]

Anyway, since nobody challenged another player, the game will be over. The Jotun will kill the last King.

Why didn't nobody challenge? It was probably the town's last chance...

I thought you said you were going to bed?

It's wrong to lie you know.

[Stig]

I bet he's a Jotun

Vote: Andres

[Caius]

There you go!

If Ichigo is Jotun, then the game should finish.But you know what?Maybe Andres, me or both, cant be jotun.think it.We maybe can be townies(I say maybe because i am a townie, err, I was.But Andres can be Jotun.Or not.)
Your wall of guessing has just crushed.

[Husar]

Well, the night was supposed to be over three and a half hours ago. And Sigurd was not absent or anything. My thought is that the game is over and Sigurd enjoys to see us wait for a somewhat more official end to the game.
It's a bit different to the faked end showing me as Jotun that i expected first, but Sigurd is really innovative.

[Sigurd]

sorry people... my comp crashed right after posting the ichigo fight...
shortly now people... in minuttes I will have it up again and be able to post the ending.
