The Midgard Saga II [Concluded]

[Warmaster Horus]

Agree. No matter the game, TC dies. From Sigurd's last sentence, it was obvious the Jotun won. But who won, I wouldn't have guess TC and LG.
Good lord, that was very well played, all 3 of the Jotun!

[LittleGrizzly]

My only vote came from Sarathos, write up to follow...

[FactionHeir]

That's why you can never trust a lawyer

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'd just like to point out that once again the townie network got infiltrated.

[LittleGrizzly]

In fairness the fighting between the townie network and outside it really helped as well...

[Kralizec]

LG, how did you get the Tyr PM?

[LittleGrizzly]

Tincow's excellent creation, after i got spotted at night out and about i needed a good excuse, tincow created it, i had an undercover pm but that was just a regular townie, swedish i think...

[TinCow]

I'd just like to point out that once again the townie network got infiltrated.

Yes, and I want to point out to CR that this time I got him lynched on purpose.

[TinCow]

LG, how did you get the Tyr PM?

He needed an excuse to justify a positive detective result against him, so I created a God role for him. I just had to mimic Sigurd's formatting and writing style and give it abilities that could be 'proven' to the town, as well as useful to us. It was fun using the fake PM to prove my own innocence in Holmgang.

[Warmaster Horus]

I'd just like to point out that once again the townie network got infiltrated.

Well, in all fairness, the townie network was infiltrated before it even started.

[Tratorix]

I'd just like to point out that once again the townie network got infiltrated.

Didn't Tincow help found " the network" in the first place?

[Motep]

Hey, I was right! Both LG and the townie network were Jotun!

But noone believed me, and were swayed...

[TinCow]

One thing I would really like to know and I hope that Sigurd will clear up: what did the code mean? That was the one thing that had me seriously worried for a while, since I expected it to expose us and there was nothing I could do to sabotage it. Even knowing exactly who the Jotun were, though, I still have no idea what "order, numbers, answer" means.

[seireikhaan]

Ahem.

If I had to pick a target for lynch next round, it would be TinCow.

You people really need to listen to me.

[Kralizec]

I recall I said several times that TC was suspicious, but he was never on the top of my list. I never seriously suspected LG, and not at all after he "revealed".

And to think that LG almost messed by accidentally pointing a finger at Sarathos

[Motep]

I only marginally suspected LG before he revealed, and then he became a prime suspect.

Tincow, I never really expected...but then again, I thought the founder of the town group was craterus and pk, so I suspected them. Well done, btw.

[TinCow]

Tincow, I never really expected...but then again, I thought the founder of the town group was craterus and pk, so I suspected them. Well done, btw.

PK was the true founder. He contacted me first, and I just went along with it. Pretty much all of our information came through him. I just convinced him of my innocence and then passively absorbed everything he divulged, influencing things here and there when needed. Knowing exactly who Thor would protect/block each night was a major help.

[LittleGrizzly]

Firstly my real role,

Trym : A large and very strong jotun. He once stole Mjølnir, the hammer of Thor to blackmail the Æsir into letting him marry Frøya (love godess).

You are a Jotun which is the MAFIA in this game. Your winning condition is to kill all the Midgard Lords gathered at Althing and any Norse Gods amongst them. You do have the power to kill this God but you will have to do two attempts.

Your partners are TinCow and Sarathos. Consult with them your strategies towards winning this game.
One of you should PM me with your kill description before the deadline every night.
I will post the deadline after every lynching.

As long as you are two or three you will be able to attempt murdering 2 players. Once (or if) your numbers drop to 1, you will only be able to kill one player.
You have two tickets you can use when you are reduced to two Jotun. Use them with your kill attempt and it will be regarded as a double hit. If a player is a God or is protected by one, you will still be able to kill them. Should a God be protected it will not work. You will be able to use these tickets even if you are reduced to one Jotun. The tickets are magical amulets given you by Hel. You need maximum capability if you are going to use one of these tickets which mean every Jotun alive must join in this hit.

In your Pm to me you will have to name the Jotun players that will do the killings that night. If you believe you are attempting to kill a God you could write the killing as if it were one kill and name two Jotun doing the killing. You have the option of not submitting a kill or attempting only one kill with one Jotun; all a choice of strategy.

You have successfully infiltrated one the king’s retinues and will hide as a townie (see separate pm).
Your Holmgang score will always be the one below, even though you have another in the undercover role.
Another ability which I will grant the Jotun is this:
Should any of you be lynched and as long as there is one alive, I will grant you a secret extra vote. This vote will depend on inactivity of one of the participants in this game. As long as there is a 100% vote you will not be able to use this ability. Further information on this will be forwarded when this is a reality.


Holmgang ability: 100 against humans (guarantied win). 10 against other gods.



Now my undercover role,


Gisle "the Bear"

You are a serf man in the retinue of the kings and the faction which you belong to is Sweden. The retinues have been infiltrated by Jotner and you will be responsible of figuring out who they are and participate in lynching them.
You have no nightly activities but Holmgang. You can challenge one player during each night phase to a Holmgang after the first night. The results will be narrated with the night kills.

Holmgang ability: 3


Very much unexciting, far better to be a God judging people


The role of Tyr started out as an excuse to save me from suspicion and ended up putting me at the forefront of the towns activities, it did mean i had to condem Sarathos but at that time the suspicion was becoming to great on sarathos and me, so sarathos was sacrificed for the team victory.

I didn't think people would buy into it, but obviously Tincow made a good forgery, i think gaius protected me that night which helped the townie information network (TIN as i started calling it) trust me as it was the first night there where two kills.

Alot of the credit has to go to tincow, he is a master of stratergy a good liar and a good role pm creator to top it off. I even mentioned at one point that i cannot trust him after this. Sarathos did well as well, his sacrifice was essential to wrap up the game, all in all i was quite impressed with how we did, the only Jotun that get lynched we practically gave to the town, Tincow got a single vote from El Diablo early on, and the only vote actually made and kept on me was actually made by my teammate Sarathos...


And to think that LG almost messed by accidentally pointing a finger at Sarathos

That was intentional


I only marginally suspected LG before he revealed, and then he became a prime suspect.

In fairness you made that one post that was roughly right, after a little discussion then you listed me with Thor and yourself as completely innocent, not long after TC brought it up you retracted your vote for me, you were hardly leading the charge for my lynch...

I was trying to save my own ass, thank you very much.

[LittleGrizzly]

Well you had a few turns to make your suspicions more known, if you had done what i did and you were my prime suspect i would have made a bit more fuss about it...

[Sarathos]

Yeah funny story. Revealed, lynched and killed by my own partner....

[pevergreen]

I never thought LG was really a God. Bah

Well Played all Jotun!

Seems like this is another time I should have lynched Sarathos.

[woad&fangs]

Absolutely brilliant role forgery by tincow and great acting by all three of you.

[LittleGrizzly]

I did declare Sarathos innocent at first, as Factionheir noticed, got a quick note from TC saying give a guilty result, edited a few minutes later, thankfully that got lost underneath accusations and arguments (and a hell of a bandwgon on sarathos) it seemed nesecary to gaurentee victory...

Edit, TC's brilliant role creation was one the the biggest factors in the sucsess (lynch him from now on)

[Tratorix]

PK was the true founder. He contacted me first, and I just went along with it. Pretty much all of our information came through him. I just convinced him of my innocence and then passively absorbed everything he divulged, influencing things here and there when needed.

Wow, is his face gonna be red when he sees this.

Well played Jotun, a well deserved win.

[Husar]

And who was it who said that LG was backstabbing his partner? Eh? any ideas?
But no, that guy's an idiot.
Concerning TinCow, well I got a PM saying Ichi was my king and he got a PM saying TinCow was his champion, I can't seriously blame myself for that, I had my suspicions of TinCow before that but not enough obviously and later took comfort in the "knowledge" to have that clver guy "proven"(by Sigurd, no less!) on my side...

Well played anyway, I removed my vote on LG because "my fellow champion" was whining about it, then challenged him, thinking even if the jotun have 8 or 9 Holmgang I might have a tiny chance or at least he would not roll over me like that god PM said, turns out that god PM had his Holmgang stats right except they were the same for Jotun and gods.

AT LEAST I DIED LIKE A MAN!

[Motep]

Well you had a few turns to make your suspicions more known, if you had done what i did and you were my prime suspect i would have made a bit more fuss about it...

I didnt really suspect untill after I really started thinking about it...

Nobody listens to motep...

[Tratorix]

Nobody listens to motep...

At least you got some of them to believe you were a lord.

[LittleGrizzly]

I think the fact that everyone though there where two killers before we lynched Sarathos helped reaffirm my innocence no end, twice Gaius protected me and as many kills as everyone though should have come out did... the only time the possibility of 2 killers being left after sarathos' lynch was in one of Husar's post where he covered basically every possibility, if the town hadn't assumed there was only 1 Jotun left after Sarathos they might have figured it out, it seem to be assumed by everyone that there was only killing...

It did really suprise me that my reveal was barely questioned...

[Warmaster Horus]

It did really suprise me that my reveal was barely questioned...

Yeah, I think we can say the town didn't do really well this time...
