    Ending the game with this vessel intact, regardless of other participants victory, will result in major victory. Minor victory is had if slain, but other indoctrinated members survive to end game.
    Told ya. I was truthful in all things but one - indoctrination is a two-step process. Also, it's not called Marking, but that would be a rather petty thing to hold against me.

    I was correct to kill Buddhafish. I did at least that much for the town. May my miraculous late-game mobilization of the entire town be forever commemorated in song: Israhaman the Savior.

    Would you revolt? Oh please tell me this.
    Now would you die, for the Town that you love?
    Perish in my arms, tonight.

    I can be your Stalin, townie.
    I can kill away the scum.
    I will stand by you forever.
    You can lynch me another day.

    Would you swear, that you'll always obey?
    Or would you lie? Would you run and hide?
    Am I in too deep? Have I lost my mind?
    Give me all your information, tonight.

    I can be your Stalin, townie.
    I can kill away the scum.
    I will stand by you forever.
    You can lynch me another day.

    Oh, I just wanna save you.
    I just wanna direct you, oh yeah.
    Am I in too deep? Have I lost my mind?
    Tell me your ability, tonight.

    I can be your Stalin, townie.
    I can kill away the scum.
    I will stand by you forever.
    You can lynch me another day.

    I can be your Stalin, I can kill away the scum
    (I can be your Stalin, townie)
    And I will stand by you, forever
    You can lynch me another day.
    You can lynch me another day.
    And I can be your leader.




    Visorslash: My spirit apparently took him as a vessel when he placed the final vote onto me. I did not know of this ability. Good thing he was lynched, though - he had convinced me of his townieness. So I technically got you a second scum with that. More points for the crushing barrage I launched at GH!

    Very well played to all. The God Emperor lynch was surprisingly...and the death of Ironside the same night was quite a boon.

    GH did the right thing in taking the loss for town. I got the impression that townies have it hard in his games. Has town ever before won in a Khaan game?

    Excellent game and a thrilling finish!

    For future reference, I never pretend to have no idea what's going on. If I claim that, I mean it. Come on, guys, I can come up with better covers than that if I'm a mafia. :p

    Now, I might still claim that as a non-townie, it just means I'm telling the truth while still not being townie. Hehehe.

    Grr. I was hoping that by being open with the claim they would realise (or think) that it would be suicide to claim that as mafia. Unfortunately no-one thought of that, so I didn't get away with it. Lack of logic saves the town.

    Up till that point, I thought we still had a chance. Oh well. Good game Khaan, thanks for hosting.

    Quicktopic, not much of note in it, normally I'm much more active.

    Things of note: Ironside dying randomly hurt us, and so did GE's lynch (the only time I have EVER seen a person lynched because they voted for a dead guy (CFC is rife will people doing it), and he happens to be my mafia partner.), saying I suspected BUddhafish was necessary, but maybe backfired. Finally, the decision to claim roleblocked was bad, as people don't like logic in mafia, and if you start to take the logical angle, people lynch you.

    @JoanK Hi there.

    One very old game, poorly formatted game, Mafia Mongolica.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Superb! Good old fashioned scum detection wins the day; makes me proud to be a townie. Well played to all, particularly GH. I didn't even raise an eyebrow in his direction until the final day.

    Thanks for a great game 'khaan.

    Oh man. GH you must have been laughing to yourself every time I popped in just to defend you.

    I am somewhat surprised that I thought "possessor role, Spirit Mafia" right after GH's death write-up, with almost zero knowledge of what had actually been going on during the night phases besides reading the write-ups. I am more surprised that I was correct.

    Anyway, great game khaan, I enjoyed it even being dead for most of it.

    Excellent game and very exciting end game that kept me glued on my stool. This game is proof that postcount isn't everything. Well done, 'khaan

    And well played GH and all other scum

    great game and writeups (even though I have no idea what was going on for the most time)

    now, when this game is over, maybe some of you will join my large mafia Academy of Magic?
    It is here:

    To be honest, I would welcome even semi-active players, as this game needs some cannon fodder too.

    Now, I will become pathetic: please, help me. Last time I tried to host large game, I didnt find enough players. I do not want to suffer this fate again

    Thanks and praise be to the host for an excellent game with awesome write-ups. I don't know when I'll get to land a role like that again, so I'm glad I go through to the end, as it was by far the most tense and exciting mafia experience I;ve had - without being too stressful :)

    Town couldn't have done it without my loyal partner Autolycus, who was far more effective as a scum hunter and didn't berrate me too much for my poor choice of Vig-targets (sorry again to those of you who died unnecessarily) and Glad the Vig order on Choxorn didn't need to go through - If you say you don't know what's going on in the future I shall believe it, but still lynch you for it - unless of course someone more suspicious comes along :D

    Monty - You are insane indeed :)

    I'm very surprised that mafia didn't target me after I claimed town power role - if anyone can shed some light on that it would be good. Mafia didn't have too long to make too many long-winded plans, but I feel sure the game would have gone on longer if they'd killed me - or if one of the SKs had forced me to suicide or something.

    Bad luck scum!

    Thanks again khaan - look forward to the next one.

    It would be a shame if you had to cancel your game, it looks very interesting. Signed up and put an ad on the FP. Perhaps @Askthepizzaguy can find some more people interested in a fantasy RPG-mafia game on the other fora he frequents?
