Mini Theme 1859: D&D Curse of Strahd Mafia - Mason Topic

[Clumsy]

Hello,

Vedith

culted (Richten) and Persivul (Ezmerelda). You are Masons together, and despite being a bastard game, I can guarantee your masonry as legitimate.You may talk here at any time, including pre-game!

[Persivul]

Hi Vedith! Please get some stuff before you die!

[Vedith]

I won't die I'm too good!

[Persivul]

I'm probably voting Creature off the bat. Last time with him he made it to lylo and just voted (incorrectly) because he was impatient.

[Vedith]

Hi Vedith! Please get some stuff before you die!

I didn't understand what you meant, but I think I do now.
You get items?
Can I give them to you?

[Persivul]

Yeah I should have explained. If you die, I inherit any items you have at that point.

So, in a vote for who gets items, it's better for you to get them than me.

This should go without saying, but we don't claim masons unless we agree to it here. Only exception would be if a wagon came up fast on one of us and the other wasn't around. Then of course the wagoned person could claim.

Typically we wouldn't claim early, as we're then conftowns and prime NK targets. In this game, we could possibly claim depending on the item. If it's very powerful and we can't get the vote going our way, conf towning ourselves might get us the item. I doubt the items will be that good, but it's possible. We probably won't even know what the item does when voting.

I googled "strahd ezmerelda" and found background on my flavor. We'll need to do that regarding the quests and items. Mod said such knowledge isn't actually necessary but could be helpful.

[Vedith]

Ah okay. So how do we work out where to search?
I've not done a game like this one before so all new to me.

[Persivul]

Doesn't really matter. Strahd is a vampire so I voted cemetery.

Rule of thumb is probably that it's not good to be the first guy or the last guy going in somewhere!

[Vedith]

Ah okay, noted!
Thanks

[Persivul]

I was right, we don't get to know what the item does. Only the character receiving it does. The people who know hte material think it's a beneficial item. The way Jason came on strong wanting it seems town to me. If I were scum I'd try to be a little more subtle. Shaziro also seems town at this point. IIRC I've seen Dunnstral self-vote as town, so I don't want anything going to him, he could just waste it if he gets pissy about something.

[Vedith]

Been busy on the weekend sorry.
Working on the game today, hope I didn't miss too much.

[Persivul]

Not really. We got an item and are voting on who gets it. I considered voting you as a mason crumb, but really you don't need to crumb mason, and since you only had a few posts I had no justification for voting you.

For me dunn and creature are PL material if nothing better comes up, and I certainly don't want an item going to either of them.

I'm leaning town on shaziro and jason. Have a bad feel on pine, but it's just a gut thing at this point.

And one of you or creature needs to swap out your dog. Very confusing.

[culted]

Hey, apparently I'm a mason.

(You're not at the top because I was gonna post this in the thread but decided against it)

Though the thought that you aren't actually town crept into my mind but mod said "slightly bastard" and scum-town masonry is pretty fucking bastard. : ]

Also boring game there was like nothing of value to comment on. Shaz is obvscum.

[culted]

Do you know anything about the flavor?

[culted]

We should town up though and try to get items w/o having to claim yea?

[Persivul]

My role pm said something like it's guaranteed we're both town despite it being somewhat bastard. I'm pretty sure we're OK with each other.

[Persivul]

Do you know anything about the flavor?

No.

[Persivul]

You can if you want. I'm not into it as it puts a target on your back.

Town -> Scum

I can go with Pine or Shaziro at this point.

If no one's looking scummy later, dunnstral or creature are good policy lynches.

[culted]

I disagree.

I'd rather vote pine than creature I think that creatures likely to be town from early game stuff and his posting now feels off the cuff sure it's easy stuff to post as either alignment but that's how he solves games.

[culted]

Is shaziro the type that doesn't really scumhunt as either alignment just kinda goes through the motions? Because I got that impressive and the fact that his gamesolving is clearly fake in places pings me less as a result.

[culted]

And I meant I disagree that they're good policy lynches in general but dunn claiming miller means that he does need to go eventually if that's what you meant.

[culted]

Let's lynch pine.
I'll let you push it solo for now?
