Mini 1679: Baccano! Mafia - Game Over

[ToastyToast]

Should I just claim? I feel like everyone has at this point.

Should I just claim? I feel like everyone has at this point.

Only if you think it will help us.
If you do we almost may as well massclaim as there are only a few missing.

If this is some form of lylo, no time like the present

[Varsoon]

Yeah, I think a massclaim is prudent.
I'm Claire, the Rail Tracer.
Due to flavor, I thought I would almost certainly be a third party, but I'm aligned with town.
I'm hated. This goes away in LYLO. For those who don't know, it means it takes one less vote than normal to lynch me.
I can also redirect any actions performed on me to another player each night.
My night action has been targeting the Jazzmyn slot consistently due to their BP claim and because I was unsure of their alignment.

[Mainez]

i'm fine with a massclaim.

i'm dallas geonard, a perma-commuter, so basically, every night, no one can do anything to me and i can't do anything too, pretty boring but pretty cool at the same time.
i didn't read/watch baccano so i don't know if the flavour fits or what not but yea.

toasty, did you target me any of the nights, because if you did then maybe that explains why your night action failed?

[Varsoon]

So, Dallas actually becomes an immortal at one point in the series (to be fair, A LOT of characters do). He's also a real prick and gets into fights all the time.
But then he gets given cement shoes and cast into the bottom of a river or something. One character's entire arc revolves around trying to find him because they are siblings. They finally find him and he's still alive, despite the torture of constantly drowning.
So the perma-commuter thing could be a reference to how he's literally hidden underwater for a lot of the show and no one can find him.

[Mainez]

cool thanks for explaining cause i only watched the first episode and never got to watch it, and i don't really intend to watch it either.
so i'm sort of immortal too eh? considering that i disappear at night.

[Varsoon]

So, there's this potion that people brewed to become immortal. I imagine that the immortals in this game are all the 'original' immortals, people who were among the first to drink the potion.
Over the course of the show, however, someone manages to brew another potion, and several characters end up drinking it, most of them without even realizing that it isn't just regular alcohol.
Dallas is one of those characters. He beats up the guy who made the potion and drinks some (thinking its just wine or booze), and soon after is kidnapped by a rival gang and given cement shoes.
It isn't until the end of the show that they finally fish him up out of the water.

[Mainez]

what's so special about the cement shoes?

[Varsoon]

Well, how else are you going to kill a guy if you're in the mafia?

[Varsoon]

Basically, because they killed him exactly in that fashion, that's why he was stuck at the bottom of the river/lake or wherever they dumped him.
If they would've just shot him, he would've recovered from the wounds.
The people that dumped him thought he wad dead though--they weren't aware he was immortal.

[Mainez]

any idea in which episode this happens? i may check it out, seems cool.

[Varsoon]

I think it gets revealed in Episode 13.
He gets put into a big oil barrel and cemented inside or something like that.
The show's opening actually kinda references this when he's shown, as he turns and smiles and then looks like he's drowning.

Honestly, the show is really fun and good--the first episode is way different than a lot of the other ones, though. It's kind of a meta-commentary by two characters on how the story of the show should be told, because there are three different plot lines that happen.

[Aristophanes]

Rail Tracer isn't TP?
Hmm...

Being Cheet, I could believe it.

Commuter is another avoidance role. Holy shit, does anything happen at night?? Lol

[Mainez]

ahhhh you're tempting me to watch, my exams just ended and i got like 5 days off from school

should i should i

[Mainez]

Rail Tracer isn't TP?

Commuter is another avoidance role. Holy shit, does anything happen at night?? Lol

nights are non-existent for me lol

[Mainez]

fyi, i'm watching it now

[Varsoon]

I'd say to go for it! Like I said, the first episode (and maybe even first few) can be confusing. Just try to remember there's four different plots;
1. The Past where everyone is on a boat in 1711
2. The mafia gangwars and resurgence of the immortality elixir of 1930
3. The events on the Flying Pussyfoot train in 1931
4. Dallas' sister is trying to find Dallas in 1932

It's

really

obvious when they flashback to the stuff on the boat, and the stuff on the train tends to be a bit clear once you figure out they're on a train. However, it can be a bit easy to mix up the events that happen with the gangs and immortals before and after the train stuff.

Whqt I mean is almost every role so far is meant to stop/block things. It seems excessive, as I mentioned before.

[JohnnyFarrar]

I'm super powerless in this situation. Ugh.

[JohnnyFarrar]

Y'all ready for an info dump?

[Varsoon]

Waiting on it.
I just took a dump, myself.
You know that really satisfied feeling you get when you're done?
I love that feeling.

[JohnnyFarrar]

Oh this one ain't satisfying.

I'm Szilard Quates, Third party. I've got a bunch of powers and information.

First thing in going to say (because it's honestly the most important thing to me) is that I'm a survivor, so I win with whatever party that wins. Basically the way I'm playing to this win con is to hope there's a mislynch today. If that doesn't happen, I'm out now and I'll agree to do whatever the town wants me to do with my powers in exchange for letting me live.

Onto powers and information:

I'm immortal

I eat other immortals

I know how many immortals are left

I can make people immortal, allowing me to kill them the next night.

Basically I can't sneak my way into ending this day early, and I don't see a way out of it so I'm being a bitch now. For what it's worth I did have a fake claim but it made no sense with the powers I'd already claimed. I'm gonna save it in case others had similarly unfortunate fake claims and try to steal mine.

Ask me anything.

[Varsoon]

I think that after we are all done fullclaiming, you should confirm the amount of immortals left in the game.
You should also try to make people immortal to save them from the night kill, if possible.
I honestly don't know how much I care for the whole roping in the third party thing, because it could be very possible that you're just scum or something.
Still /shrug.

[JohnnyFarrar]

The immortality I give doesn't kick in till the next day. That way I can't immediately kill them the same night I immortalize them. I thought maybe I saved someone last night so I asked.
