It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!
1. All site rules apply.
2. Be nice. Mafia games can get heated but remember never to attack the person.
3. Play to your wincon.
4. Days are approximately 8 days long, nights are approximately 48 hours long.
5. Failure to post at least once every 48 hours will result in a prod. If you do not pick up your prod in 24 hours, or if I feel that your activity is low enough to be disrespectful to the other players, I will look for a replacement.
6. Please put votes in this format: VOTE: Something_Smart. Bolded votes are allowed (
Vote: Something_Smart
), but I'm more likely to miss them. In case you don't know, you can vote with:
Unvotes are not necessary to change your vote.
In addition, to vote for a player to receive the Beetle, use the heal tags, like so: HEAL: Something_Smart. This vote can be removed with HEAL: Unvote or UNVOTE: heal Something_Smart.
7. No vote trickery. Votes inside spoiler tags and obviously broken quotes will not be counted. Don't attempt to confuse other players over whether your vote was valid.
8. If more than half the players are voting for a player, then that player is hammered and removed from the game, and the day will end. If the deadline is reached before a hammer occurs, the day will end without anyone dying.
9. If you have a question for me, put it in bold and say
@Mod
or
@Something_Smart
. If it's not something you want made public, feel free to shoot me a PM. If you need me in a pinch, you can reach me on Discord under
Something_Smart#8109
(and the worst under
Tom#4827
).

This spooky shade of orange (#4F2200) is the mod color.
Do not use it. Do not impersonate me.
11. Do not discuss this game in any other thread except in PT's created specifically for this game. Do not discuss any other ongoing game in this thread.
12. Do not quote any out-of-thread communications with me or with any other player.
13. Do not post if you are dead.
14. Do not pretend to break any of these rules. Pretending to break a rule is punishable just as harshly as actually breaking it.
15. My word is law. Just because it is not stated here does not mean that it is acceptable. I am generally a nice person, and will give you a warning if you do something I don't approve of, but it's always better to ask than risk the consequences (see rule 9).
16. The mafia have daytalk and may request a Discord server if they so desire.
17. This is an open setup. The setup is as follows:

I'm thinking if I can do even smarter things here so for now I would like to hold on claims
good, i said that to see your reaction

was both successful and a failure in the previous run I guess
In the first night, it was likely that John would be able to operate the doctor, but since there was no other doctor it didn't mean much. It's not like I hadn't realized the fact that there's that possibility, or the fact that if we pick a "both-doctors" pair, and both waste their operation together, our chances of getting Dr.Zenkawa operated gets to pretty much zero since we would need four doctors to exist at minimum in the game.
It's a good plan overall though, I'm just thinking if I can do better here.
I'll describe a plan when I've settled on one I think. If you mean you do have a plan you're free to share, but I highly, highly, highly suggest you read the previous game
We talked a lot about mech stuff there from pages 7 to 13 especially. I'm super not in the mood to repeat myself to be honest.

I mean by explaining why the plan is bad
By the way I would have explained a few things after I got the bug in the last game, but I'll explain now:
The "mafia has a natural 25% ~ 33% chance of winning this if we go along with the [sentries steal bug at night plan], because mafia can target someone in the potential sentries group with a [Steal & NK], potentially winning in N1" thingy was a white lie.
I told it to get the bug, and because of some other reasons, but you can understand that it's a lie when you look at the natural order of resolution:
In post 1, Something_Smart wrote:Mafia Roleblock
Gardener Prevent
Sentry Defend
Sentry Guard
Surgeon Heal
Mafia Kill
Sentry Steal
Mafia Steal
Gardener Investigate
Surgeon Operate
The mafia NK is resolved before the steals actions, therefore even if they attempt to [kill & steal] from a potential sentry that would get the bug, the kill would be resolved before the mod would count the sentries/mafia steal actions. Therefore there is very low odds that mafia would get the bug in N1 if there's at least 2 sentries. It's basically impossible for them to get if there's 3 sentries and all of them steal during the night.
It's possible to lose by having only one sentry though, and I felt like it would simply be better if I would get the bug myself there but...
I don't really feel like getting the bug here, It's too effort consuming to town tell as hard as I did in the past game, fight off suspicious, keep replying to people, etc. I'm ok being more of a side character here.
