Mini 68, Homestar Runner Mafia (Game Over!)

[d8P]

~sighs~


~shakes head~

There is nothing to fear but fear itself. Fear is the mindkiller. Fear is the little death that brings total oblivion. And in that sleep of death what dreams may come when we shuffle off this mortal coil must bring us pause.

And I'd

prefer

only to be feared when I'm an enemy.

~sighs again~

[d8P]

I'd rather have a somewhat crappy yet still somewhat valid reason to start my bandwagon then just total randomness.

Vote: Rite

, for behaving completely out of character.

[d8P]

Can't I even interest you in a used handkerchief, gslamm? Only one careful owner. I guarantee you can't see any of the stains.

Alright. Ideas on the mafia?

Homestar seems likely considering our mod, and then PomPom would surely be in league with him.

[d8P]

Of course!
The Marshie's marshmallow thing has to be the evil one.

[d8P]

~Agrees with gslamm~

FoS: Quagmire

. I hereby formally request that Quagmire be investigated.

Though it'll mean extra work for our mod, I vote we replace inactive players.

~prods Saigon~
Stop that.

List of charcters who appear in the characters thingy:
Homestar

That's all for now.
Any other possibilities?

[d8P]

How so, Dirge? The King of Town is Marzipan's father.
The Poopsmith works for him?

[d8P]

Welcome to all the new people!
I would post properly but Carmine just said it

all

.

[d8P]

Hmm? Oh, sorry. Spaced out for a bit.

I don't know that we actually need to pressure blackhawk. I think we can assume Marzipan is in this game, and that she would have said blackhawk is lying if he were since it'd mean he's scum.

You are right in saying it's a paltry form of night communication, but that's not what it's meant to be, I think. It sounds like it's just a mechanism to allow 2 roles to confirm each other.

My $0.02

[d8P]

Have a little faith, Wacky.

he hasn't been saying all that much

[OT]but my girlfriend has gone back to Italy , so I'll be participating more Rereading... [/OT]

[d8P]

Or I get lynched.







I mean, WHAT? I'm not going to ask what you're talking about. I don't need any more info to know you're off your rocker. I don't want to hear about how you communed with spirits and rolled your occult dice and 8 was the number you did roll, hence d

8

P is evil.

Nor do I want to hear something like this: you followed me and found my character is into flower arranging or something, and flowers grow in Sicily, which is the traditional home of the mafia, ergo d8P is a flower-arranging Sicilian.

Your gibberish doesn't move me at all.
Ah! Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous Fortune, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and by opposing, end them!

You imply you're a cop, but you don't want someone to know. Who, the mafia or the town? Unless it's part of your role to post incoherent tripe I ask you to stop. This is hard enough as it is.

If you implied you're a cop, the mafia will know whther you are or not. The rest of us don't even know if you're with us. I have seen no indication of such. You just sound odd to me, and misleading; like you don't want to say anything you might have to retract.

To borrow a technique of yours: Maybe in a few posts I'll actually say something that completely undermines your last post, Saigon. Believe me, I can and I will. But only if I have to.

[d8P]

I *knew* fhqwghads would be in this game.

~checks~
And I spelled it correctly, too. YAY!
I'm gonna read some tomorrow. G'night all.

[d8P]

Let me guess: you're the 1930's Homsar, right, Saigon?
It has to be.

I don't even know where to begin. I'm tempted again just to respond with something flippant and dismissive , but I don't think that will help the town.

However , I am having trouble with this game. Normally at least I have

some

suspicion who is town as well as who is not. This game, it feels like you're all Mafia.

I know there must be at least one other townie out there. I have no idea who you are. I've been trying to put someone on my less suspicious list, but I'm convinced none of you belongs there, for various reasons. It's odd.

Anyway, I do think fhqwghads in this game. That's exactly the kind of thing our beloved mod would do to us. If two of the characters from the eh Steve cartoon were in here, I think we must allow the possibility of fhqwghads being in here too.

I realize this is a matter of opinion.

[d8P]

Ah. I was trying to use my new voice recognition. That last post of mine took more than an hour.

[d8P]

d8p needs to role claim 1st because he hasn't done so yet, seems to be defending Dirge, is being accused by Saigon, is being asked to by me ...

gslamm. That's weaker than Bavarian beer. And that's weak.

Summary: I have to role claim for

obvious

reasons: (1 and 4):I haven't done so yet and you asked me to???...(3)because Saigon thinks I'm "intelligent" enough to make presumptions (not assumptions, mind) about the set up but didn't, something that should answer itself. I "seem to be defending Dirge" because I think his character is as likely to be in the game as the wheelchair, who also only appeared a couple if times on the site. And we know that 2 of the characters from the Eh Steve thing were in this game.

On a side note, what you just did was very anti town, gslamm.

FoS: gslamm

~remembers the Fishbulb ordeal from DP7~
~looks over at Saigon~

If both gslamm and Dirge are Mafia I'll be impressed, but not altogether surprised. If Sai is Mafia, I'll post a warning in every forum about his acting abilities.

Wacky

: Homestar has a few episodes set in the 1930's. Homsar is a really wacky character on the site, Bubs owns a local stall from which he sells wares of negotiable virtue, I think Sai is being so stubborn because he is anxious to prove himself to be right, and we are all lost.

Ah, now that I read gslamm's post again I see he has explained these things in his own quirky way

[d8P]

Saigon, if you really are pro town then you need to be involved, now more so than ever. This is exactly the time when mafia would try to push a lynch through, because they know townies will go along with it and say yeah, let's just get this over with.

[d8P]

Saigon, you are definitely talking in circles, confusing people. Why? A psychological experiment? Fine.

if I am scum and I get Dirge lynched and he turns out to be innocent, I'll get lynched tommorow. Anyway you see it, it wouldn't make any sense to act the way I've been acting if I was scum.

You didn't investigate Dirge. Why should you get lynched? All you said was that he's suspicious. It certainly doesn't follow that you're scum if you're wrong.

And umm.... hello? Exactly what sort of uber-strong role do you have here?

[d8P]

Um....NO!



Saigon. Your judgement is really questionable here. You were odd, impatient, and supercilious at the start. I don't know how I or anyone came to trust you in the first place.

You have nothing to back up your conjecture except more conjecture. Your role claim is extremely suspicious. You're pushing for a lynch.

FoS: Saigon

You are not only saying things that are inaccurate but also things that are completely off the wall. If we lynch you there is no guarantee, assuming you're scum, that Dirge is innocent, or if you're innocent, that he is scum. Could it be that this is what you wanted to set up?

If you are pro town, then I'm sure there's a very good reason wrapped up in that role of yours for your behavior. Otherwise it is just that you don't want to play. If you don't want to play, ask to be replaced.

I'd much prefer to hear that this was something to do with your role.

[d8P]

Sure.

Suspicious.

[d8P]

Oh my. OK.

Gslamm

is homestar.

~turns off intuition, which was obviously on the blink for a while~

I am Strong Sad. Refer to sighing in my first post, the used handkerchief in my third, Hamlet quotes throughout. Don't ask about my details. They're embarassing.

~sighs~

[d8P]

Not yet, anyway. I figure cos of the seance thing at Halloween, and a few appearances on Marzi's answering machine on .com , and the way she was the one who filmed my character story, and that we seem to be kindred spirits in many things that well, we'd kinda be friends and I'd call her at some point when I heard about the answerin machine bing a part of this game. So I guess no, really, not yet, but I was thinking maybe later. If the mod remembers me. I mean, she

is

as close as it gets to a human friend.~sigh~
[<<<loves roleplaying^_^]

[d8P]

Well, it's twilight. Saigon what was that all about. You're dead now, so you might as well tell. Was it part of your role or just apathy?

[d8P]

[Saddam's been captured!]

You want details? You got 'em. I've had enough of being bullied by my brothers. I'm to go crazy go nuts and strap on a rambo headband if they target me (once a game immune). Then I'm able to target someone each night to drive insane by playing Donovan songs on my eukelele.

Well, you asked. The sad truith is that I'm serious

Anyway, I think the mafia must have some seriously powerful roles to balance ours. And I think there's more than one because of the variety of kills.

[d8P]

I thought Bubs's role extremely powerful, and so is mine. The mafia have to have me lynched or make two attempts on me.

Vote: Dirge

, then.

[d8P]

I saw that, ....Strong Bad

[d8P]

I'm not arguing that. Our Strong Bad Mod did a very bad thing and deleted a post. He's an imposter I tell ya! And a cheat!

Wanna know who's underneath that wrestler's mask?

[d8P]

Surely Strong Bad has access to the answering machine. Strong Bad is the GF and his "innocence" is "confirmed" by his ability to communicate with Marzipan. Blackhawk and you are confirmed? Gimme a break.

[d8P]

In fact,

vote: Wacky

.

[d8P]

Right.

Unvote: Wacky

The town should understand. Do you?

[d8P]

I most certainly am not mafia, and you know it. Bah. He's trying to manipulate you, blackhawk. Look at the site. There's no way in hell anymod would throw Strong Sad in the mafia, especially if the cheat and the other 2 Strongs are in there.

Vote: Wacky, scumlord Strong Bad.

[d8P]

Or, alternatively,

vote: Wacky

.

[d8P]

Um...YAY! I'm dead! ^,_,^


Strong Mod?

[d8P]

It ain't over till the fat lady sings, Blackhawk. Sorry to disappoint you but Wacky just revealed a flaw in the theory that Strong Bad isn't the game: it's him. I think he was being a little gloat.

[d8P]

Nice, Wacky, very nice.

[d8P]

Someone is not the mod. That was what I saw a while back. I can PM the real one, but I think they just haven't been on.

Patience.

[d8P]

I was

not

in league with the other Strongs, regardless of how it might look. Great role, mod. Though the mystery around it was a handicap, I couldn't lose^_^.

Great game all.

[d8P]

if all d8P had to do to win was die, then why didnt he just jump up and say "im strong Sad, mafia goon, kill me and youll all win

Three reasons: primarily, because it would spoil the game. It would also waste a set up. Third, because of the other two reasons, I figured the mod was having me on. Add to that the fact that he wouldn't confirm or deny how it worked.

Considering who our mod was, I figured it best not to trust him and to play right until the endgame. I assumed I was on my own, so I'd have to try to lynchas many mafia as possible before I started acting suspicious. The whole game I was trying to act odd enough to be forced into claiming, in order to set up the endgame, but not so much that the town would lynch. I threw in the ukelele thing to avoid being killed prematurely by the mafia.

Again, great role, mod. Nice set up. I knew I was doing the right thing by not trusting you when I saw Eh Steve and the Wheelchair shuffle off. This has been bothering me for a while, but doesn't that scenario mean we had alreadsy had a winner: Dasquian?

Is that what would have happened if I'd been killed earlier, the game would have continued?
