Abilities:

CRUCIO!

- Bellatrix Lestrange is a witch with prodigious skill. Once per game, she is able to use all of her power to perform the Cruciatus Curse on two people at once. This spell wracks the two people with so much pain they are unable to perform any actions that Night.

You also know that there is a mafia traitor in the game. The traitor knows all of your identities, but you don't know their identity. If you target the traitor at Night with your kill, they will be recruited to your cause.

You also know that there is no other character from the Harry Potter series is in the game, and you can request a safeclaim PM at any time by PMing me a character name and role.

Your team will win when you outnumber the town or nothing can prevent this from happening.

Mod notes

Right, I guess I'd best address the modkill first, since that ultimately ended the game. I didn't want to do it. No mod ever wants to modkill. However, I had to. Viomi broke a

fundamental

rule of any mafia game. You DO NOT quote mod communications. I don't mind paraphrasing, but the direct quote took the piss, and it unfortunately left me with no choice. I even consulted with four other mafiascum mods - Faraday, Izzy, Cay and Tierce, and they all agreed. It wasn't a decision I took lightly. The reason I didn't end the game there and then was because the scum could've fucked up. They didn't. Viomi has since PMed me and called my decision wrong, and said she's blacklisting me, which is fine, since she's blacklisted from all games I ever mod again anyway.

ArcAngel9's role - I didn't realise there was another role called a schizophrenic. My apologies. It was put in to give another result for the Hacker (PeregrineV's role). That was it. It was designed to create paranoia and get the player's thoughts in the topic.

Generally I thought it was a decent game - I have no idea why Viomi didn't use her rolecop every night, and the GNR lynch was AWFUL. I also don't know why MonkeyMan576 didn't use the fake-claim information that was given in his role PM, but whatever, rod for his own back.

Activity was average, which was fine.

Overall I enjoyed it, up until the modkill. I apologise for the lack of flavour towards the end, but I got ridiculously busy.

Thoughts? Criticisms? Comments?

[ArcAngel9]

I didn't like my power role at all

Congratulations to the scumteam of:

Monkeyman576 - Bellatrix Lestrange (from the Harry Potter series) - Mafia Magical Roleblocker,
Toogeloo - Prince Regal (from the Farseer Trilogy) - Mafia Reporter, and
havingfitz - Opal Koboi (from the Artemis Fowl series) - Mafia Inventor

You have won.

BLACKLIST THIS MOD!!!

[Venmar]

Holy Shit.

I was right about Fitz...

And I had a gut feeling when skimming the thread when replacing in, but brushed it of once I saw the claim....

I can't give much thoughts since I barely played to begin with...

Whoops. I forgot that you win with the scum I will fix it now.

[ArcAngel9]

LOL^

[sword_of_omens]

well...Viomi broke the rule way back in her 811...
i'm surprised she didn't get a warning way back then...
that's why i thought she might be lying about her role...

but yeh..i played a real crap game this time around....

[d3x]

/sigh...

I agree that the ModKill was entirely just. I can't believe that anyone outside of their first game on site {and even then } would quote a ModPM in thread and then hold it against the Mod...

gg Scum, you played a solid game. Thanks for the Modding, Nexus. I thought the flavor and concept were really well done. I enjoyed them both quite a bit.

p-edit holy shit, I didn't even see p811... lmao. She got a lot more traction out of that than Rule General 6 she out to have.

[Nexus]

"My lord, we have discovered that PeregineV's role is Odd-Night Hacker"

As you can see I can't get if they're town or scum aligned, so.

So she did. I completely missed that one because it wasn't done as a proper quote. Well then. Sorry to everyone else for missing that, it could've changed the course of the game if I'd modkilled her earlier.

[Nero Cain]

Congratulations to the scumteam of:

Nero Cain - Shane Walsh (from the Walking Dead graphic novels) - Mafia Traitor Gun Vendor

Monkeyman576 - Bellatrix Lestrange (from the Harry Potter series) - Mafia Magical Roleblocker,
Toogeloo - Prince Regal (from the Farseer Trilogy) - Mafia Reporter, and
havingfitz - Opal Koboi (from the Artemis Fowl series) - Mafia Inventor

You have won.

You even put me first. Unblacklisting Nexus.

I also find it kinda funny that SOO stump actually helped the scum to win.

Thanks to Toog, Q21 and Fitz for securing the win.

[Nexus]

You replaced in, therefore you get preferential treatment

[ArcAngel9]

well...Viomi broke the rule way back in her 811...
i'm surprised she didn't get a warning way back then...
that's why i thought she might be lying about her role...

but yeh..i played a real crap game this time around....

Make that as two.. I feel terrible.. This could have been good town win game.
And i hated my role even more

[Nexus]

The issue was, I couldn't give everyone exciting Power Roles, it would have been far too swingy. Unfortunately you drew the short straw. Sorry about that.

[Guy_Named_Riggs]

Good game scum
Probably better that I didn't use my other shot, I would have hit town

By the way, Thanks Nexus for my role!

[PeregrineV]

Modkill was unfortunate necessity, as we don't need the integrity of the game breached, and that's what quoting mod PMs can do.

Sad to have died night2. Was hoping to clear/catch at least one other person.

Final scumteam guess in dead thread was horribadoff. Didn't think of a Mafia Inventor or Mafia reporter even though I should have.

@Nexus- well modded, good VCs, good flavor. Thanks for modding, and letting me play!!

I actually think the others roles are cool
Otherwise, its a great game. Thanks for hosting

[penguin_alien]

...this still isn't the fewest posts I've had replacing in or the fastest I've been killed after replacing in.

Well done to the scum team! If we'd had more time I was hoping to probe the GNR lynch, but I wouldn't have thought the first two on were the scum, so. I'm just sorry not to have had longer to play with those who were still among the living.

Nexus, thanks for modding--the flavor was wonderful and was what hooked me into reading the game at the start.

Also, GNR lynch was bad. Why was the vig lynched again?

[Nexus]

I also really liked PeregrineV's role, I think it's one of my favourite roles. Not sure if it existed before, but it's one I will use again.
