Rules, better read em

1. This is mafia people. If you are in this game, you should know the basic rules by now. Play the game with integrity and dont be a derp. And dont be a butt.
2. Days are 7 days long, nights are a 1 day long. Pregame will be 48 hours.
3. Obviously you are not allowed to talk about this game outside the thread if you dont have a role that says so.
4. When you die, you may post a spoilered picture of an asian water monitor as a "Bah!" post.
5. If you have mod powers, dont edit your posts. Dont try to be sneaky and use forms of cryptography either. See rule 1 if that confuses you.
6. Any V/LA's more than a week and I ask you try to secure a replacement before leaving.
7. TRY to post at least once a real day. For every 1 real day you dont post, I will prod. If you force me to prod you three times I'll replace you and unleash the cheese cat, beware the cheese cat. Prods are reset every game-day.
8. Other no-no's: Trust tells, video/voice posts, quoting PMs, posting links to qts, etc use common sense, see rule 1. Also questions > modkills.
9. When you signed up for this game, you made an honorable unspoken pact with me and everyone else saying "Hey, I'm gonna play this game to the best of my abilities. I'm not gonna be a butt. I'm gonna play with all my spirit and try to win no matter what." So yeah. Remember that. And have fun.

Great Expectations, the setup you are playing.

SPECIAL PREGAME ADDENDUM

During pregame, Leafsnail brought to my attention a fatal-gamebreaking flaw in the setup that myself and Zoraster missed. Because of this, the Prince role was changed from

If he is lynched, the Prince is told what the roles of the remaining players are and must choose 1 town player to kill

to

If he is lynched, one 1 random townie is killed

. That is all. Thanks Snail!

Reserved: If anyone asks questions about the setup in the thread, I will post my answers here.

[Timeater]

The General has been selected. It is now Pregame. I will unlock the thread in (expired on 2013-01-15 21:12:41).

Role PMs are out!

Excellent Flavoure: Yo so basically back n the day in china people were all unhappy and like they wanted to rebel n stuff. Or maybe it was unify i forget whatever same difference tbh. There was this big war thing, and like three major dudes were wanting power. One was Cow Cow, he was a real jerk imo because he was always mean all the time. There was other guy named Luke Bay, he was an alright dude because he was very upstanding and everyone liked him. And then there was this other spliff his name was Sunny Quinn, aka Emperor Da of Wu (look it up thats his real name) he was alright I guess but personally I was never a fan of him because he wore funny hats and I mean what is the deal with that.

Anyway, u find urselves at the start of this war and there are bad guys you must vanquish or else you will die and all will be lost. May the odds be ever in your favor as Sun Tzu once said.

Sheeping redFF and policy lynch.

[Mehdi2277]

I'd want to start off with some set up spec. The game is nightless so whatever is done scum can't really stop much. Currently I'm leaning towards the loyalist should choose a person based on town consensus that the town thinks is most likely town (it's better to get him to try to clear someone then try to guilty someone and die pushing him) and claim if only about to be hammered. The person shouldn't be the prince or himself. Instead of outing either from the start the easiest work around is the person chosen most town will claim to deal with that.

As for general unless someone knows a fine way to spot a general vs goon just treat him like a goon and not complicate it. The only way the game can be won by white flag is if both goons die first so instead of focusing on not lynching the general and just scum just lynch scum normally.

[redFF]

question for everyone-who would you have picked if you were general?

for me it would be bbmolla because i know him and iirc he's good at mafia and mehdi because he is the only other name i recognize

[redFF]

well apart from gnr but you know...

[Human Destroyer]

Dunno, I don't really know the players in this game (except ProHawk), I'd probably have picked randomly.

[Mehdi2277]

And pro it's my job to do that if you don't agree with me.

Pro and jarvis would be my choices. I wouldn't over complicate it so people I think would do well. Pro being overly logical which although I don't remember him being scum in a game with me he'd likely do fine and I've played some games with jarvis.

[redFF]

How about we lynch gnr before he can post?

[BBmolla]

I'd probably have picked ProHawk and Mehdi just from past experience.

Is there a reason to not mass claim? We learn who Prince and Loyalist are and force Mafia to cc or deal with two confirmed town in a nightless game.

[BBmolla]

How about we lynch gnr before he can post?

That gives us like 3 days.

[Mehdi2277]

There are set up things I want decided before a lynch. Mainly with how one pr's ability only occurs after the day 1 lynch and knowing who the loyalist chose makes things easier. Plus everyone should have a chance to claim when this an open set up with two town prs.

[Mehdi2277]

And actually less. With the current set up depending on who general chooses for execution mislynching twice before day 4 can be a loss.

[Mehdi2277]

I'm not against mass claiming but I'd want it decided first before having the two town prs claim and to wait a couple of pages so interactions between town prs and everyone else actually matter some.

[BBmolla]

?

Explain this to me, you want to find connections between town PRs?

[Mehdi2277]

Town prs to everyone else. If they claim now then what people say to them from scum perspective would be no point suspecting or pushing them and town wise trust them. Both look close enough to the same that any associations between town prs and the other 7 players don't help. On the other hand stall it 5 pages and the way people treat someone later confirmed town has some meaning.

[redFF]

i dunno if we should mass claim, i need to think about the setup and the implications of mcing for a bit.

[Human Destroyer]

Looking at the setup, I don't see any disadvantages in mass claiming.

It's nightless so the PRs won't get nightkilled, so we end up with 2 confirmed town players (assuming they don't get counterclaimed).
