Pirate Ship Mafia II [Concluded]

[Askthepizzaguy]

Because the officer can do the same as his lieutenants, the following is not necessarily true:

The lieutenants were recruiting last night.

Because the officer could have done it and one lieutenant could have been doing something else. Would be nicer, cleaner to fit everything together so neatly but that possibility is not eliminated.

[Zack]

I think it's a lot more likely that the officer was scanning people to determine susceptibility, rather than wasting time doing actions his underlings can perform.

[Visor]

Askthepizzaguy- I can be found stealing treasure two nights ago. The person I stole treasure from is still alive. I can tell you who I stole from and how much treasure. They can confirm.

However, with the lack of mafia kills, this doesn't actually make you 'low risk'. It doesn't really clear you of much. Stealing is a good alibi, for both town and scum.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Lurker kill squad. One can hope.

There are a lot of us who can be possibly starting Spanish, I'd be inclined to take JHT off that list though.

I would be interested to hear people's thoughts regarding taking people "off that list".

Most of us might have reasons to be taken off the list or know that they were stolen from on earlier nights and it would be neat to match the target with the thief. If the night and gold amount matches, I'd be inclined not to lynch them today. That inclination will decrease as time goes on, but it's worth noting here.

The Spanish will have, up until now, been rather disinclined to steal. If my instincts are correct.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Stealing is a good alibi, for both town and scum.

I doubt the Spanish would have been stealing N1 or N2.

Being caught stealing will result in ill will from fellow crewmates and possibly result in death by vigilantism.

I doubt that. No-one is going to hunt people down for losing (max 20 gold).

I would.


This is not just town versus Spanish. It's also pirate V pirate.

If you aren't thinking that way, then you're going to lose the game.

[Zack]

Captain Zackbeard clears his throat, calling for silence. The sailors, normally as rowdy and unruly as you'd expect pirates to be, all quiet themselves to listen to the Captain.


Sailors,

This is Captain Zackbeard speaking.

As you can see, the previous update all but guarantees I am town. I could not have been scanning for recruits or converting people, because I was publicly revealed to be guarding my stash of moola. Furthermore, I cannot be converted while Captain, so I am not a convert either. Therefore, I am 100% certifiably town. I'm a Captain you can trust, as well as an unkillable Captain.

The above also applies to my officers - the First Mate, NinjaCow, and the Quartermaster, BSmith. Both have dutifully followed orders, and in BSmith's case especially the targets of his blocks have admitted it before it was mentioned by any officer or myself. Officers cannot be converted. Therefore, BSmith is 100% certifiably town. NinjaCow64 is still almost certainly town, but I won't put it at 100% because I don't know what he was doing Nights 1 and 2.

You can trust Captain Zackbeard and his officers with your utmost loyalty. We're pirates, through and through, and there's a mountain of evidence to prove it.

Therefore, I am asking the following of you, loyal sailors and pirates:

Contact me, Zaccino, in private detailing all previous night actions you have taken, as well as all night actions inflicted on you over the course of the game.

If you were protecting Bob with Jim and Susie last night, I need to know. If you stole from Carlos last night, and Carlos confirms someone stole from him last night, I need to know. THIS HELPS NARROW DOWN THE SUSPECT LIST AND BACK THE SPANISH INTO AN INESCAPABLE CORNER.

As an act of good faith, I will now list all night actions the captain and his officers have taken over the course of the game:

Night 1:

• Captain Zaccino guarded his treasure.
• First Mate choxorn scanned Person X and Person Y.
• Quartermaster BSmith blocked Horseman Chaotix. Chaotix can confirm.

Night 2:

• Captain Zaccino guarded his treasure.
• First Mate choxorn killed Arjos. choxorn was killed.
• Quartermaster BSmith blocked Ishmael. Ishmael can confirm.

Night 3:

• Captain Zaccino guarded his treasure. Confirmed in update.
• First Mate NinjaCow64 scanned Person A and Person B.
• Quartermaster BSmith blocked Tiaxez, who can confirm.

I will also give a small amount of gold to any sailor who discloses their night actions to me privately.

Additionally, I pledge to consider any and all suggestions for scans, night-kills, and roleblocks. In addition to that, I encourage players to try and steal my treasure. I will be guarding it every night, and attempting to steal it, and thus revealing yourself publicly, helps clear your name.

I swear that as long as I am Captain of this vessel, I will use every power at my disposal, every iota of analytical prowess, every bone in my body to find those disloyal to the Presence and eliminate them from our midst. I swear that as long as I am Captain of this vessel, I will give small monetary rewards to those who cooperate with the Captain and his officers in completing the previously stated mission. Anyone who wishes to donate to this reward fund is certainly welcome to do so.

I swear that as long as I draw breath, I will fight against our enemies and protect true pirates. On my word as your Captain. On my word as a pirate. I swear we will win this game.


Captain Zackbeard acknowledges the end of the speech with a nod of his head. "Go on and get back to accusing each other, you lazy bums, or I'll have you swabbing the poop deck!"

[Zack]

And I always pay in the following manner:

[GeneralHankerchief]

All feedback PMs are now out.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Dang, I should have waited five minutes to tell you my actions.

[Visor]

I'm a Captain you can trust, as well as an unkillable Captain.

@ issaikhaan

I knew it was you. The next time, I will be quicker with my sword, and cut your hand clean off.

[El Barto]

Now I'm not totally sure about this because I didn't understand all the events of the night before last, but it looks like what happened with Makrell wasn't an anomaly (someone who fails to steal gets their name revealed or something along those lines), though I will grant that he was acting incredibly weird to begin with.

OOC: You never bother to read Role PMs or game rules, why do you even join?

With that in mind, the following seems pretty clear:

• (…)
• The converts can be anyone except myself and my officers, even people like TinCow and Diana who were publicly stealing gold.

Diana was guarding her gold, Cap'n.

I would be interested to hear people's thoughts regarding taking people "off that list".

THat it should be obviously done in me case, is a good thing.

The Spanish will have, up until now, been rather disinclined to steal. If my instincts are correct.

They just want to steal ye entire ship.

I will also give a small amount of gold to any sailor who discloses their night actions to me privately.

This bain't uninteresting. What and how much be ye offerin'? Plate always cometh in handy.

Heh-heh, poop deck.

Vote: Mutiny

Explain thy reasons for being disrespecting ye captain, sailor. Money-giving cap'ns are trustworthy folk, surely?

OOC: You never bother to read Role PMs or game rules, why do you even join?

I did read my PM and the rules, but I swear to glob, I did not understand what was happening with/to Makrell.

[Diana Abnoba]

To sum it up Double A; when he was attacked at night by Xenoneb, Xenoneb's name was exposed, so some thought that it was maybe a sign that he had a special role like the SK.

[Zack]

Seriously, PM me. I am as confirmed-town as any player could possibly be. Do you want to win this game or not?

[El Barto]

Everyone wants to win the game, Zaccino.

[Zack]

Take Andres, Beskar, and Ishmael off the list, Pizza.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Seriously, PM me. I am as confirmed-town as any player could possibly be. Do you want to win this game or not?

Patience me good Captain, patience. Ye must give folks time to read and respond to yer orders.

Pirates aint so good at readin anyway, as you've seen already

[El Barto]

Take Andres, Beskar, and Ishmael off the list, Pizza.

Be the reasons allowed to the public?

[Zack]

Should be obvious enough to anyone willing to put forth the effort for basic deduction from what I've posted.

Now PM me Bart.

Whittlin' it down. Who gets to die today....

[a completely inoffensive name]

You assume too many things Pizzaguy.

[Zack]

I don't think ACIN is a member of this game's horsemen group.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You assume too many things Pizzaguy.

I'm giving it an honest attempt. Beats sitting back, doing nothing, and throwing rotten tomatoes at those attempting to do anything.


Also, I find it strange that you wouldn't try to be a horsemen in this game. Curious why you wouldn't be.

Got somethin better to do at night?

So mutiny but swiftly backing down and going after lurkers, eh? Bad Visor.

In case the alcohol has destroyed your sense of humour, the mutiny was a response to Zack saying he was unkillable.

Yeah, got about 20 first order, ordinary linear differential equations to solve, a chemical engineering problem set to do, and 75 pages to read on the transition of humans from hunter gatherers to agriculture.
