Seven Man Scrimmage V - Red Herring Mafia [Concluded]

[Secura]

I'd like to take this chance to defend mysel. I voted for you well in advance of the time limit, about 3 hours to be precise.

I just checked to be certain, seems that you posted that a good two hours before the write-up, so I did have time for a rebuttal, if I hadn't been shopping for clothes in town, hehe. However, there was no way I could have saved myself anyway; what would I have done? There were more votes for no lynch than on me and I still died! :P

As for Methos, he was just trying to dump guilt off on someone else before he got lynched, I did not PM him.

I can buy that, I guess; mafia's gotta say what he's gotta say.

[Methos]

I'm not sure if you stand by this view or if it was an attempt to withdraw votes, if it was it was a dirty tactic,

[Thermal]

Tut tut, at least I know not to take your tantrums seriously in the future.

What's worse, is that in order to sell it I had to post in the d20 thread too. I felt bad doing it, but I was hoping it would help sway you all. I'm curious, are you all that indifferent, or was it too obvious, or was just nobody online?

I was going to comment, but I felt it would be inappropriate to do as the game host. Good to see that you were trollin' though.

[Secura]

And I felt that my comments carried little weight because I'm totally dead. :P

It's not an uncommon reaction when the chips are down to react emotionally. Although this is the first we'd seen it from you, it wasn't that different from the norm when it happens here.

Had I been online before the write up going up, I seriously would have been sceptical of your alignment, but by then you already had to many votes anyway.

You know that better than most, Switzerland.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You know that better than most, Switzerland.

?

Where did that come from?

[Subotan]

?

Where did that come from?

I was referring to my breakdown in TYW.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I was referring to my breakdown in TYW.

Ah, ok. Just checking, was honestly confused.

[Centurion1]

ah subotans break donw of the ages. clever trick or is he really that infuriating.

i for one didnt believe it and if it was true it would have been rather ridiculous.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Well I don't know. I honestly was putting a lot of pressure on him. I was wrenching the whole "he attacked me first" to ludicrous extremes, all for selfish reasons. I was getting pity help from several nations, and major help from my allies. Then I negotiated a plan where France would get attacked by 3 nations, financially backed by 7 or more, and then was in negotiations for Netherlands and Saxony to join in and was getting mercenaries from players left and right. Financially, diplomatically, militarily, France was getting pounced on merely for exercising their wish to go to war over a dispute with Switzerland, and I was rather merciless with the pressure. I made absolutely sure (I thought) that France had no friends, and if they did, I had many many more. Then I hid my actual financial status, which was rich due to all those gifts, and still claimed to be too poor to end the war without massive reparations and land as well. Not all of that was undeserved, mind you, but instead of an "eye for an eye", I was absolutely going for the throat, and pretending to be morally decent all at the same time. I even got help from both the Ottomans and the Holy Roman Empire, who were at war with each other, and I was spying on both of them for each other respectively. I wasn't even being KIND to my allies.

Don't cry for me, I'm absolutely merciless. But I will still try to guilt trip you even so. I'm just very happy that Subotan and I see that it's all in-game and meant to be in good fun. Isn't it more satisfying to defeat someone who's giving you the best evil that he can be?

[Centurion1]

lol id be mad if i didnt end up turning on you with britian with a massive army ready to blitz your northern border the next turn.

and i mean a massive army hidden in a fort.

[Subotan]

ah subotans break donw of the ages. clever trick or is he really that infuriating.

i for one didnt believe it and if it was true it would have been rather ridiculous.

It was. I actually cracked temporarily, and not just due to ATPG's pressure, but the fact that everyone was believing him. Particularly over the "Omg France is a bully for wanting to create a Kingdom of Umbria", which was from a third party view a generous offer once it had been watered down.

Well I don't know. I honestly was putting a lot of pressure on him. I was wrenching the whole "he attacked me first" to ludicrous extremes, all for selfish reasons.

I KNEW IT! I KNEW KNEW KNEW KNEW IT!

I eventually did calm down, and realised that it was all in jest, yes.

When the butlers woke up the next morning, they padded downstairs in their pyjamas and slippers to the dining hall to identify the latest victim, as well as have a tasty breakfast. Thermal Mercury was down first, and whilst anxiously waiting for the others, he slopped some porridge into a fine china bowl and started to munch his breakfast (Yes, you can munch porridge, if you're a noisy eater). Then, Double A entered the dining room, who upon seeing the breakfast table, immediately piled his plate high with a meat feast. Centurion1 was next, and he was content just to have some fruit salad and orange juice. Then, Yaropolk strode into the room. He had a delicious croissant.


What? You can't expect fantastical death scenes all the time, especially when no-one was killed during the night.

The butlers sighed when they realised that they were all alive, for at least another day. However, the threat of "Edgar" remained, and so it was necessary to continue the discussion, and eventually dispatch the last threat to the group.

Day ends at 22:30 GMT.

[Secura]

Wow, the remaining mafia is playing it very close... thus far we've had Day 1 (Secura 'lynched'), Night 1 (Pizza killed), Day 2 (Methos lynched) and Night 2 (no kill).

That's four phases total... seven-man games usually have five, six at the very most. The next phase will be night, and it will probably be the last phase due to the 120 hour limitations of mini-games.

In short, if you don't catch the mafia out during this Day Phase, it's game over.

[Subotan]

I don't think anyone is going to enforce the 120 hour rule, especially when we're this close to finishing. That rule is more of a guidline for potential players.

[Secura]

Bah, you ruined my suspense! D:

[Thermal]

There is progress, but it is horribly slow, I would urge everyone to choose no lynch this round.



---------------

Wait, what am i talking about, ignore that

Hmmm,

vote: double a

[Double A]

Hey, you're not Beefy!

[Yaropolk]

My paranoia is telling me that centurion is jumped on me at the same time is methos, whatever that's worth. However I'll go with TM's suspicion and vote: double a. If I split up the vote, it will let the mafia pick and choose the lynch target.

[Thermal]

unvote
vote: centurion

You might be right Yaropolk, but with no leads It seems stupid to bandwagon someone, I will be here to change my vote at the last second if need be. I am going to tie it up.

um no i was the most ardent defender of tm and i voted for methos that ENTIRE phase.

tm your vote is looking rather weird as a result.

Vote: yaropolk

Vote: yaropolk

Yaropolk claimed to be a doctor, I tracked him, he went to my room, there were no deaths, that makes me trust him a lot more...

p.s : He didn't want me to publicize this, but at this point in the game it is very relevant, by the time mafia killed him and me they would have lost, I would assume...lol... (unless its all a farce and he told subotan to say a certain thing to me? )

[Centurion1]

well how am i supposed to know that.

unvote ; vote: double a

he has been rather quiet this game.

i tihnk if tm is correct (and i dont see why he would lie in any case it matters not who gets lynched) we have our mafia.

[Thermal]

well how am i supposed to know that.

You weren't I decided to say whilst it was still helpful.

[Centurion1]

if tm isnt lying and i see no reaosn why he should be and i dont think subotan would break the game by letting yaro go to the room and not do anything i believe we have our scum.

[Double A]

well how am i supposed to know that.

unvote ; vote: double a

Yeah you're right, I have been rather quiet this game. The better my role the more involved I am. Usually.
