Midgardsaga III [Concluded]

[Romanic]

At least you finally admit it.

Yay for me, I won the exchange!

Off to bed now, goodnight Jotun.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I think we need a counter for how many times I admitted or alluded to being a Jotun already this game, publicly and privately.

I even told you that you all were boned several times.

You know why it's a joke? Because if I did that as a Jotun, I'd never be allowed to tell jokes in games ever again. It's the same reason I was innocent in Campground; I'd never be able to survive another game if my antics were mafia-related.

You think I'm guilty because it would be juicy if I were. That's really the only reason.

[Romanic]

Jotun.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Jotun.

Pizza = Tempting target. That's why you keep responding to me!

[Romanic]

You're a Jotun!!

[Askthepizzaguy]

I rest my case.

I think 50% of everything that happens in mafia games can be explained as Pizza envy.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You're all just jealous of how my large stuffed sausage barely fits in this cardboard box.

[Diamondeye]

I've had no internet since I came back from work yesterday, so I have ten pages to read. I'll post a "real" reply by then and hope I haven't missed too much.

Here's a recap:

I've personally vanquished half of the Jotun using only my godlike holmgang abilities, and Reenk changed his name because he lost a bet with me.

[Romanic]

A better recap would be: We found a Jotun, it's ATPG.

I love it. You're physically incapable of resisting my charms.

You're losing sleep because all you can think about is my spicy pepperoni with extra sauce. You long for a slice of tasty goodness while it's steaming hot, and you can't tear yourself away from looking at it, even when your body is crying out from exhaustion.

I've got you whipped.

[White_eyes:D]

I guess Diamondeye is going to be upset we lynched him for nothing really.

I wonder how big his "Town shot itself in the head" freak out well be?

Yes, yes you are.

[Askthepizzaguy]

ATPG, I said goodbye, it means, goodbye, our discussion is done.

40 minutes later, and you're still Pizza-whipped.

[Sigurd]

Reenk also challenged himself.

not valid

YOU DID WHAT!?

Seriously, this is a disaster. I know I've not been very active, but this last streak was through no fault of my own and out of all the excellent suspects, you pick me?!

It seems from my skim that I might be able to help from beyond the grave, but even then you've dug a pretty deep grave for yourselves to crawl into.

Now, I have a bazillion other things I need to check up on since I just got my internet back, and while it was down, A Dance with Dragons landed on my doorstep. I'll get around to helping you, eventually.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Thank goodness. I thought we were boned.

[White_eyes:D]

Thank goodness. I thought we were boned.

Diamondeye was not active enough to help and not a big loss....still was a sharp kick to the that we didn't really hit a Jotun though.

[Visor]

Then why do people keep lynching me over jokes? :P

Okay, Music mafia, I took it to far. But this game? :(

Not going to stop me though. I'm going to post "I'm mafia" in every first day post from now on. :D And if you first day lynch me and I'm a town vigilante/doctor/scanner, etc. then good job folks.

I have no idea what has happened in this game, so I'm of little help. Go whatever is left of the town.

Jokes are unhelpful, I suppose. You gotta mix it with serious attempts to find the scums, or you will die. Also people have to get used to you.

[White_eyes:D]

First round lynches suck....you never hit scum.

Only game I recall it ever happening with a first round lynch of the mafia was with Yoyoma and I. After that, Pizzaguy unreasonably slapped down hard on townies nailing the mafia in first round lynches...had to make it loads easier for the mafia, huh?

Edit:It was a totally random lynch, no reason for it. Quite funny since I beat Lord Winter to the tie vote in that game.

Edit2: Oh yeah it was in "Psycho mafia 2", he had an emergent mafia(Which I randomly nailed). And one mafia that could keep recruiting if one was killed...it meant that two lynches in a row were needed to kill the mafia and if you missed one or were wrong, they would merely recruit another one. Meant town had to get it right almost every round. Compared to that game this is too easy yet, we still are going to lose.

But this is the first day, so practically no real chance to catch scum. I can't really be serious on the first day. The lynch was better than a champion or a king, me being a basic townie of the weakest kind. But I will post more serious posts more often though, or at least try to. Like I did this game, or tried to.

@ WhiteEyes

The Commie game was a day one lynch win on Lord Winter. Funny read that.

[Askthepizzaguy]

@ White_Eyes.

You just had to lynch the Psycho, who was the recruiter, then his buddy.

He was nice and mute, too, so he wouldn't put up much of a fight. I think Beskar is still peeved that I made him mute.

@ Visor

More funny was Pick your power where I made a day one, first-post "case" on Khaan by citing all the other games he was mafia in, thereby proving he was mafia in that game as well.

And he was.

I still dislike recruitment in all it's unholy glory thanks to that game. And it was overkill having a emergent mafia with one recruiter and a partner in a small game.

Edit:Pizzguy, you need to look at it this way. Me and Beefy had to limp on, after tevash left in "Godfather 3", we missed two kills because of that...and 4 more, if we could have recruited whenever Beefy wanted or even just to replace tevash. We even asked GH if we could send in the kill for him to but no. I look at all the mafia "Super powers" that they seem to have now and I wonder if it's more about skill or just luck getting a good role and side?
The best role I have ever had was a "Joker" role. But even I agree that it's just overpowered.
I was lynched twice in one game with it...must be some kind of record there.

I need to get some sleep.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You guys had detectives. Plural. Doctor. Blocker. And a dude who could kill from beyond the grave.

2 years later, that's still not enough for White_Eyes...

[Visor]

@ Pizza

I read through that last week, it was funny how he actually was mafia, and andres was the suicide bomber who then killed you. I think the CDF venegul lynchee move at the end was pretty brilliant though.

[White_eyes:D]

The Vig was on his own side....Doctor and Blocker were killed right away. The Detective that survived WAS THE ONE RECRUITED. We lost because he outted the mafia buddy and was recruitable.

Edit: The only game(Warhammer) where I received a recruit ability, it was heavily restricted for balance to only one townie and I faced all what you have there and more. There was even a doctor/reviver role.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yeah, you were stuffed with power roles so that you could protect other power roles from dying, and those power roles could deduce who was the Psycho and kill him off before he could recruit those power roles. You also could have lynched him randomly. You also could have wondered why the mute guy wasn't dying after the first game where the mute guy was the best detective you had.

In other words, balanced but things didn't go well for you.

Kind of like this game. Sigurd was kind enough to give us gods with protective and detective powers, champions, and cannon fodder to holmgang and possibly find Jotun with. And we could have lynched them randomly. But instead, we blew ourselves up, one power role at a time, and the Jotun carved us to tiny bits, laughing the entire time.

[White_eyes:D]

So, being able to recruit any power role is balanced?

Honestly, I well never be able to see that....but your games are some of the best here at the Org.

I have lost in so many of your games, but it was such a blast just getting there, that I enjoyed it.

Edit: I must be a masochist....
