Buffy Mafia 2: A Slayer's Work Game Thread [Concluded]

[Askthepizzaguy]

Technically, it's not even me doing the networking, it's the guy who made my existence miserable for the first whole round.

[beat]

OH GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE!?!??! I AM SO SORRY, CSARGO! PLEASE LYNCH ME SO THAT MY SOUL CAN GO TO HEAVEN WHILE IT IS STILL CLEEEEEEAN!

I REPENT O SILKY-BEARDED ONE!

[Montmorency]

first whole round.

Half the second.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Half the second.

WHICHEVER! IT'S NOT REALLY IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW, THIS IS MY BIG DRAMATIC MOMENT!

You are working with him, the evil one.

:(

[Montmorency]

I'm not evil!

[Csargo]

That's exactly what I would expect the evil one to say.

[Montmorency]

Can't argue with that logic.

[atheotes]

What are cults, if not Mafia (equivalents)?

Geez, OK. Fine, all non-evil individuals with a kill ability, contact me anonymously.

Why you? Though you may not know the identities, it gives valuable information on game setup. There is no reason to trust you, as all you have done in thread is bring about a bad lynch (though you are not the only one to be blamed)

[Montmorency]

That's all Pizza. He picked scottish. And scottish didn't reveal. How could I know I was sacrificing someone so valuable then?!

There is no reason to trust you

I have a number that can vouch for me, and they're being tested to see if they are actually what they claim, which would give their favor immense weight. Being able to direct a vig or two tonight would just make that testing easier. And I have revealed my character; he's one of the best (good-est) among all those assembled.

[Askthepizzaguy]

That's all Pizza.

You really are the evil one.

I suggested Scottish as an alternative to Lewwyn and you guys nearly soiled your pants trying to kill him.

I didn't know my powers of persuasion were that powerful. I must still have my mind-controlling death ray switched on from Capo.



CITIZENS OF THE GAMEROOM: YOU ARE NOW ALLOWED TO THINK FOR YOURSELVES AGAIN.

CAUTION: YOU MAY NO LONGER BLAME EVERYTHING ON MEEEEEEEEE............

[Montmorency]

That's all Pizza. He picked scottish. And scottish didn't reveal. How could I know I was sacrificing someone so valuable then?!

As you yourself pointed out. Which is why I included it: it's a fair point. You can't drag out some dramatic moment for the entire game. You're no martyr.

[atheotes]

There is no one who has been cleared or declared innocent. So people vouching for you outside the thread dont mean anything. I dont see how any Role-claim, (except Buffy or Angel perhaps), can lend you creditbility in a conversion game either.

You are planning on checking the credentials of the people vouching for you, by getting them to do vig kills? Yet you use them to defend your credibility?
I can only hope there is no repeat of the days events in the vig kill choices. A wrong choice could cripple the town beyond repair.

[Askthepizzaguy]

A wrong choice could cripple the town beyond repair.

Oh. No. Please. Not that.



Given how fabulously the neutrals are viewed by the townies, I can't say I'd be all that disappointed. Chances are I get lynched tomorrow anyway, so I'll say this in advance: Townies suck.

I'm starting to enjoy giving the town the bird. God I hate working with townies. It's so freeing not having to suck up to them.

Lynch me, I don't care. I'm not going to continue to beg to be able to exist from this point onward. Keep your doctor too, I don't want it.



The tipping point: Me trying to help them do something awesome without contaminating myself with info, and that upsets them.

That's all I need. Go destroy yourselves.

[edse]

I like Scottishranger for death.

ATPG makes a demand as he ruled the town and Lewwyn just really want to stay alive as he was the one most likely to get lynched before this scottishranger thing.

I say we lynch Lewwyn tomorrow. ATPG ordered Willows death but Lewwyn was the one performing the kill.

[Montmorency]

No, you on't understand. I have a few people. They're in my network. I'd like to test them. Well, I don't have too many guys here with kill abilities, so I'd like to reach out to the unknowns with kill abilities, hopefully town, and ask them to attack certain people so I can test certain things. Even if I somehow had the loyalty of all the vigs in the game, I obviously wouldn't just have them go out and kill whoever. That's a terrible idea. So please, read what I say carefully; it might eventually be crucial.

[Montmorency]

I say we lynch Lewwyn tomorrow. ATPG ordered Willows death but Lewwyn was the one performing the kill.

No on all counts.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Worse, I just suggested it. I didn't even lead the charge with a vote.

Anyway, I think I'll do the really neutral thing now and just sit back and watch it all unfold. It's so much easier than giving a gosh darn and being accused for my trouble.

How about actually behaving in a scummy way? Then I'll deserve it.

Pizza, stop being a drama queen. I refuse to believe that you've been so unbalanced by yesterday's events. This is just part of your act. If you don't want to work with town, fine. I do what I can to mend ties, at great cost, and you just piss in the creek. Or something like that.

[edse]

No on all counts.

And instead we lynch Buffy or someone really important. Is he worth it?

I'm just tired of my repeated attempts to work with the town, clever and actually useful strategies offered, only to have the response of "WE MUST KILL PIZZA FOR THIS".


Fine do it. Impossible people to work with. There is no satisfying, pleasing, or meeting your expectations, as a group. I've worked with the town in dozens of games as a neutral and every single time the town has tried to bite me in the butt or succeeded in doing so.

The mafia on the other hand are a lot less divided, confused, and paranoid. Such better partners in everything, even if its agreed you'll eventually try to kill each other. That's known in advance and it's accepted. With the town, they're too scared to think straight.

[Montmorency]

It's a shame I have to do this again.

Pizza: *fools around*
Town: You are suspicious.
Pizza: Oh no! Now town will lynch me! Go ahead, make my day.
Town: Ok.
Pizza: *cries foul, wagons*
Me: Well, do this and I will side with you.
Pizza: OK. *carries out his side of agreement*
Me: *as do I*
Partners?
Pizza: *still crying foul*

[Askthepizzaguy]

It's not you anymore Monty, it's now Csargo and atheotes, and STILL freaking Kage.

Just get bitten, all of you. Become vampires. Maybe becoming mafia will bring you to your senses.

I'm starting to think being a townie is a disease and becoming mafia is the cure.

Aint that the difference between uninformed majority and informed minority?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Aint that the difference between uninformed majority and informed minority?

You don't have to be informed to work together with clarity of thought and a united sense of purpose.

Or at least agree on what the basics of strategy are... and that connecting the doctors together without contaminating neutrals with that information is a good thing.

Since when is that scummy or wrong? Gosh, that's new to me. Really new.


I just give up, man. I gave you a totally, COMPLETELY and absolutely CRUSHINGLY pro-town maneuver, and all I get is townies thinking I need to die for it.

You first. You don't deserve my help.

[atheotes]

More posturing?
I called for your death based on your posturing - i beleive i have told that already
Since the end of the day phase i dont remember blaming you...i have been questioning Montmorency.

I am pretty sure you are capable of deconstructing your arguments above

[Askthepizzaguy]

Posture this: Scan me all you like, I'm not mafia.

Block me if you wish, my abilities are nonvital to the town.

Kill me if you wish, it will just allow the mafia to kill you faster, and at that point I hope they win.

That's my posture, other than reclining for the foreseeable future.

[Montmorency]

Particular problem with scans: of all the scan-types I've encountered, none seems capable of discovering whether or not someone has been converted.

Oh, well if they are a vampire (i.e. not a human anymore) then my human finding scan might be useful.

Better kill me to make sure that power doesn't fall into enemy hands or something.

[Montmorency]

Speaking of vampires: I've only met alleged humans and demons.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Demons aren't necessarily the enemy, though not all are going to be friendly.

Of course a vampire isn't going to reveal to you silly buns. They should reveal to me.
