Mini 1651: One Flew Over The Monkey's Nest(Scum Wins!)

[MonkeyMan576]

They say you can't let the inmates run the insane asylum. But that's exactly what happened here. At 4:53 PM on
March 1st, chaos ensued. One jailkeeper made a simple mistake, one inmate got the key, and ten minutes later the
other side was in the cages. You would think this would make the inmates happy, but evidently this was not the case.
Twenty eight minutes later, one of the inmates was found dead.

Can the bloodshed be stopped before the insurrection takes hold? Only time will tell.

Day 1 will begin in (expired on 2015-03-02 20:12:38). Presuming everyone has confirmed.

Oddmusic, who was shot on day 1, was a

vanilla townie.

RadiantCowbells, who was shot night 1, was a

town cop

.
Mykonian, who was lynched day 2, was a

vanilla townie

pisskop, who was killed night 2, was the

Modkilled:

Spoiler:

Taly, who was the

Town Roleblocker

, was modkilled for communicating outside the game.

Here is a sample role pm:

You are a

vanilla townie

. You have no special powers, but may vote as normal. As a member of the town, you win when all anti-town players eliminated from the game. Please pm me that you have read the role description and that you understand it.

[MonkeyMan576]

General Rules

1. Treat others with respect, play the game the way it was meant to be played, and have a good time!
2. You may PM me at any time if your have a question, I'm human and I make mistakes. Any in game mod request should be bolded, so that I can see it. You may post any vote count errors in thread.
3. I have the final say in all rule disputes, and may change a rule at any time.
4. Days will last 14 days, and nights will last 3 days.
5. You must post once every three days. The you will receive two prods, the third offence will result in replacement. If you are unable to meet your posting obligations please VLA.
6. Red is my color, don't use it.
7. You may have up to 4 V/LA's total, 3 V/LA's in a 2 game day period, or 2 V/LA's in a one game day period. If any of these are exceeded, I will look for a replacement.

Important game rules(breaking these rules can result in punishment including modkill.)

1. Do not quote your role pm. You may paraphrase your role pm if you decide to do so.
2. Do not paste any correspondance you receive from me. You may paraphrase.
3. Do not talk about this game outside of the game while the game is still in progress, unless you are given permission to do so in your role PM.
4. Do not post any game information after you die.
5. Play to your win condition. This means do not out your teammates out of spite, etc.

Voting rules:

1. You may vote by typing

Vote: Monkeyman576

in bold. Anything close to the correct format will count, but it must be bolded. Misspellings and votes without a colon will count. You do not have to type unvote to unvote, although if you do it helps keep track of things.
2. A player is lynched when the vote count reaches (X/2)+1 votes, where X is the number of players alive. So it there are 13 alive, it wout be 7 to lynch, with 11 alive, it would be 6 to lynch, etc.
3. There will be 12 hours of twilight following each lynch, regardless of when I log in to check the vote count or when the lynch is announced.
4. If any player has a vote count other than 1(i.e. a non voter or double voter), it will be reflected in the vote count.
5. Each player is allowed one "bah!" post after they are lynched, but may not reveal any game related information after the lynch is announced.

Oddmusic was enjoying his newfound freedom, but he didn't see the shadowy figure lurking up behind him.

"I've come across reliable information you've been trying to hurt our cause." Said the shadowy figure.

"No! No! I'm on your side!" oddmusic said franticly.

But the shadowy figure didn't believe him, and shot oddmusic dead.

The rules for V/LA's is being updated. You may have up to 4 V/LA's total, 3 V/LA's in a 2 game day period, or 2 V/LA's in a one game day period. If any of these are exceeded, I will look for a replacement.

Player Specific: Those who already have two V/LA's(TheDudeAbides and eektor, from my count) may have one more total V/LA(five) as they were not aware that the rule change was going to happen.

That's a lynch!

Eektor, Elyse, Aquanim, metalcyanide, toolenduso[Lynch!]

The game ends in a scum victory!(3 scum, 3 town after nightkill)

Congratulations to the scum team of Elyse, Toolenduso and TheDudeAbides![/color]

Thanks for playing, everyone!

Feel free to join my upcoming Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Season 1 mafia(Large Theme), as well:).

Also, if anyone was wondering about the Taly modkill, he had evidently emailed Aquanim about wanting to be "friendsies" or something like that. I felt this was an inappropriate pm to be sending someone you are in a game with, it could imply you are asking for preferential treatment, so I made the decision for modkill. The listmod said it might have been better to force replace rather than modkill, but it doesn't sound like it would have effected things either way.

Also, despite what Radiant Cowbell said, this WAS approved for balance and normalcy:).

Force-replacing Taly wouldn't have changed my read on the slot. I rather hoped at the time you were going to force-replace me, which would have fixed the problem.

It wasn't your fault, so it wouldn't have been fair.

Wooo!

Gj Aqua! It was really fun playing with you. And of course great work tool and TDA!!

Monkey you did a nice job modding. I thought the setup was a little town sided but with two PRs dying before day 2 and the other killing a townie, they weren't too troublesome.

Perfect scum win!

Scum seem to be winning a lot of games here, so I am modifying my game setups accordingly to make it more even.

What do you guys think about the 12 hour twilight? Good mechanic or bad mechanic?

[MonkeyMan576]

I'd say the town was really only apathetic for maybe the last day. For the rest of the game, the town was fairly active as far as towns go. Lots of content posts, activity, etc. It just so happened scum played better.

[MonkeyMan576]

It's your job to convince your teammates of who is scum. Townies by nature are going to be skeptical(at least good ones). You should look at your own arguments for why town didn't follow your lead, not blame them.

[MonkeyMan576]

I nominated the scum team for a scummy if anyone is interested in seconding or thirding.

[MonkeyMan576]

My problem goes more or less like this. I imagine I'm a fun person to play with, at least for some people. I put effort in, talk reasonably to people, don't just scream at my scumreads (mostly). (My attitude to Boonskiies was an aberration, which I'll get to.)

The trouble is, I'm not having fun. Joining this game was a mistake I regretted from start to finish. The last game I played, I played more or less like this, except I pretty much carried town to victory. Apart from the high from actually winning, playing that game was bloody miserable too. It's not always the fault of whoever I'm frusturated with. Going V/LA or replacing out is sometimes unexpected and unavoidable, but it messes up the game for me. I take care to play one game at once, so they can't get in each other's way, and play only when I know (barring some accident) I won't have to just ditch the thread for days at a time. Not being practiced or skilled isn't really a town player's fault either, but again (especially in extreme cases) it makes the game frusturating for me to play. I can deal with those. Sometimes I'll lose because of them. That I think I can deal with, but it does all add up.

What I saw when I looked at Boonskiies was a player who DELIBERATELY sabotages his towngame, so as to be able to have fun in and autowin his scumgames. That is pretty much everything I loathe about Mafia. I have to be able to know, as a townie, that everyone on my team is playing to their wincon first and foremost. (Some players' egos get in the way of their towngame - that really annoys me but even then at least they were trying.) I don't think I can play the game when I know some people care less about their wincon than deliberately fucking their town meta over. I can't even dodge all such players - I wouldn't have signed up for this game had I know Boonskiies was going to be in it, but what the hell am I supposed to do when he replaces in?

I've tried to quit Mafia for more-or-less these reasons before. The problem was, each time I was leaving on a win. I always kept looking back at random games and thinking "Jeez, those townies are awful. I could do better than that." , and remembering the high from winning my last game as opposed to the misery it was to actually play the game. I've also always wondered what my scumgame would be like, having never rolled scum before. But the game is seriously bad for me. I get stressed, it sucks up large quantities of time, and though I've learned how to persuasively argue with people that don't trust me (a useful skill which I perhaps needed) I'm now learning how to flame people who annoy me (which I think I should not learn).

I've lost games as town before (offsite); in each of them, the scumteam (and in one case, the third party) was entirely catchable, but the town was either mindbogglingly lazy or let their humongous egos draw them into dick-waving contests rather than actually playing the game. (I am no longer enamoured of my previous site.) It annoys me that in this game I might have seen a truly good scumteam that a good town would still not have caught, they played really very well... but I'll never know for sure whether you were that good, because instead you were playing against this clusterfuck of a town-team.

For the record, I don't have a problem with the play of Pisskop, or Eektor (though I wished you'd turned on a little sooner). Metalcyanide, Taly, Oddmusic, IL, and Bellaphant have a fair bit to learn, but all had the right attitude. I feel like Boonskiies, and to a lesser extent Mykonian and RC, just pissed some fraction of a month and a half of my time down the drain, and that makes me seriously mad.

I don't think Boonskies deliberatly sabotages his town games. I think he knows that it's beneficial in some instances to be difficult to read. A think a lot of players mistakingly take issue with players who don't play to their town meta, or don't have a town meta. Boonskies was more right about his reads than a lot of the players were. Now, he made it more difficult for himself to convince others of his reads by not appearing town, but I'm sure he'll realize that 2/3's of his games will be town and that might not be the best strategy. If it were me, I would adjust my scum game to fit my town game, not the other way around, but to each their own. I still feel like he was playing to his win condition, for the most part.

[MonkeyMan576]

I don't really think that this game deserves one, not that any members of the scum team didn't play well. They were all solid, especially Elyse, but the game was just too easy for them.
Same scumteam could win a scummy in a different game, but not this one.

Not responding any more because Pisskop basically handed them the game in #850 and I've been sick of this game since that moment.

I think you're being bitter. In my opinion they played really well.

[MonkeyMan576]

At the time my thinking was that you had more VLA days than Eektor, although you had the same number of VLA's. but you were right it needed to be evenly applied, so I changed it.

When the game started, I hadn't quite gotten the hang of using the private topics.

Some infractions are serious enough that warnings aren't practical. Quoting role pms and communicating outside the game are two of these, because they directly reflect the integrity of the game.
