Mini 1405: The Simpsons Mafia (Game Over)

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Spoiler: Flavor - A Simpson Tragedy

My bad attempt at writing flavor ._.

[

You are sitting innocently watching TV one day when…

]

Kent Brockman

: We interrupt this regular programming to announce this breaking news. Local fat man Homer Simpson has been reported missing by his family early this morning. Witnesses say they last saw Mr. Simpson being dragged into the back of a dark van. Some say it belongs to the Springfield mafia.

This was later confirmed as we received the following video recently:

[video starts]

[Dark room, with a light bulb shinning in the background. Homer Simpson is sitting on a stool facing the camera.]

Homer Simpson

: Hello. I am Homer Simpson. I have been directed to speak on the behalf of the *squints*... lafia today.

[voices in the background]

Voice 1

: It’s mafia you big oaf. MAFIA.

Homer Simpson

: I, uh, apologize dearly for my mistake. The... what was it again.

Voice 1

: MAFIA YOU OAF.

Homer Simpson

: Okay. Jeez. You don’t have to lose your cool. I am speaking on the behalf of the MAFIA. The want to take over the... I have been directed to speak on behalf of the….

Voice 1

: What. Are. You. DOING.

Homer Simpson

: What? I’m just reading the cards.

Voice 1

: WHAT?

[pause]

Voice 2

: Oh, I’m really sorry boss! I messed up the cards. I’m sorry boss.

Voice 1

: Proceed.

Homer Simpson

: So, where was I? The LAFIA.

Voice 1

: MAFIA you buffoon.

Homer Simpson

: The MAFIA want to take over Springfield. The say that the town should hand over the town peacefully to them or else. Hey, look, the card stop there.

Voice 1

: I’m sick of your dimestore morality. IT’S A SAYING.

Homer Simpson

: Really? I could’ve sworn that’s called an incomplete sentence...

[Homer gets chair thrown at him. The sign “technical difficulties” is put in front of the camera.]

Homer Simpson

: Ahh! Ahh! No! No! Ahh!

[video blacks out]

Kent Brockman

: Unfortunately, that is all we have of Mr. Simpson. We went and got an interview with the rest of the family:

[cut to interview]

Marge Simpson

: *sobbing* He was a good man. He always was. Every New Year he would always make a resolution to stop drinking. *sobs more* He would always break it less than a weak later, but it’s the thought that counts!

Kent Brockman

: Bart, how do you feel about your dad? Will you hope to continue in your father’s footsteps and hopefully one day take over his previous job at the power plant?

Bart Simpson

: No way man! I’m running away to become a rock star.

Kent Brockman

: What about you, little Lisa? What are your hopes for the future.

Lisa Simpson

: I wanna become a Jazz player Kent! One day, I’m hopping to be famous and everybody in the world will know who I am!

Marge Simpson

: *sobbing* Ahh! Look! My son wants to run away and become a rock star, and my daughter wants to grow up selling her body for money!

Lisa Simpson

: Mom, I want to be a

Jazz

player.

Marge Simpson

: I just don’t know what to do anymore without my Homie, Kent.

Kent Brockman

: *turning to camera* Strong words, from a strong woman.

[scene cuts off - back at studio]

Kent Brockman

: Mrs. Simpson was later too grief stricken and collapsed to her death. The three children are no where to be found. Mayor Quimby pleads that any resident in the town should get out of their homes and go and fight off this evil.

Rules

1) Hate me now, so you don't hate me later.
2) The site-wide rules apply. I trust that no-one would break these rules. Serious no-no if you do break it.
3) Never quote the PMs I send you.
4) Never talk about this game outside of this thread, and do not talk about other ongoing games here.
5) I don’t mind swearing or vulgar languages, but please don’t be mean and bring in personal insults to hurt other people. Remember, attack the player, not the person! After all, it’s just a game.
6) If you want to vote, do it like this:

Vote: Ser Arthur Dayne

or like this: VOTE: Ser Arthur Dayne. I will accept abbreviations or nicknames. Just make them reasonably understandable (ie. VOTE: SAD, VOTE: Arthur, etc)
7) UNVOTE: aren't necessary, but are appreciated.
8) A day will last a max of 2 weeks.
9) Everyone is allowed to continue to talk during twilight (period after lynch and before I post lynch scene). Even the person who got lynched may talk. However, after I post the death scene and give a flip, the Dead shall not talk. I repeat, the Dead shall not talk.
10) Prods will be given out every 48 hours. If a player does not post within 24 hours after being prodded, I will start search for a replacement. If you post before a replacement is found (that is, when I make a public announcement of a replacement), you may keep your slot. Also, if you are prodded 3 times in one game-day, or 4 times in total, I will force replace you. If you know beforehand that you will be out for sometime, declare a V/LA on thread or by PMing me.
11) I'm human. So I may make mistakes (I hope not, but in case I do). Please just give me a PM or post in thread,

@MOD: blah blah blah

. And if you want to get my attention for any reason at all, also just post

@MOD: blah

12)

This

is my color. Please do not use it. Or else!
13) RichardGHP is my back-up mod. If I ever go missing, he shall take over.
14) I hold the right to amend these rules at any time.

Sample Role PMs

Here is a VT role PM. If there are any VTs in the game, they will receive the following role PM (except the role name and flavor different obv):

Welcome to The Simpsons Mafia, Ser Arthur Dayne!



You are

Homer Simpson, VT

and member of the

Town

.

What?! Shelbyville is in trouble? Who cares?… Wait, no! C’mon brain! Springfield, Springfield. You won’t let some people think they can just walk over your town and its people like that! Super Homer, on duty! Unfortunatley, since, well... you’re not really

good

at anything, you don’t have any

actual

super powers. But, uh, that’s cool?

Role

: You are a

VT

. You have no abilities.

Win Condition

: You win when all the anti-town players are eliminated and at least one pro-town player remains standing.

Similarly structured, here is a sample PR PM, which is guaranteed to not be in this game:

Welcome to The Simpsons Mafia, RichardGHP!



You are

Marge Simpson, Loyal Wife

and member of the

Town

.

Springfield is in trouble! You won’t let any people hurt your family! Especially your homie! Since you’re such a loyal wife, and in love with homer, you are… uh, married to him? Okay, other than that, you are probably in love with him?

Role

: You are a

Loyal Wife

. You are married to

Ser Arthur Dayne (Homer Simpson)

, thus you cannot bring yourself to vote him for the whole game. If you do, you will be modkilled instantaneously.

Win Condition

: You win when all the anti-town players are eliminated and at least one pro-town player remains standing.

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Role PMs are going to go out very soon! Please /confirm you have both

read

and

understood

your role PM via PM. Game will start when at least 10/13 players have confirmed.

(this is a very good time to ask any questions you have)

ALL ROLE PMS SHOULD BE OUT!

(Also, I realize that Christmas/New Years are coming up, so if you're going on V/LA, I am very understandable. Just please make sure to notify me of your V/LA.)

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

With 12/13 confirmed, Day1 begins!

[Plessiez]

VOTE: guille2015 for not confirming.

[qwints]

Death to L337 Speak!

VOTE: d3f3nd3r

[saulres]

Hi everybody I know and everybody I don't!

VOTE: The Rufflig because I don't want to be ruffled.

[D3f3nd3r]

VOTE: DoubleJD

The mod forgot the capital in my name. Maybe Double will lend me one of his?

[Klick]

VOTE: Klick

[qwints]

OK, if you're going to out yourself like that.

UNVOTE: D3f3nd3r
VOTE: Klick

[D3f3nd3r]

So...bastard game according to the queue page.

It seems clear who would be scum name-wise (Fat Tony and his guys, for example).

[saulres]

Bastard game still wouldn't make scum vote for themselves. Might make town, but not scum.

VOTE: qwints

[Lord Mhork]

VOTE: Klick

For the self vote. Scum shall go down in a flaming mess.

Psst... Tell your buddies to bus you now and we'll go easy on them.

[The Rufflig]

So...bastard game according to the queue page.

Say what???
...
Aw, man.

VOTE:

[Plessiez]

Self-voting seems silly. I don't believe it's indicative of alignment though.

saulres

-- what made you suggest that Klick was

forced

to vote for himself? Both Klick's self-vote and qwints's response seemed like ordinary RVS joking to me.

D3f3nd3r

-- what was the purpose behind your 10? I don't think set-up speculation is very useful at the moment. Why did you not comment on Klick's self-vote?

VOTE:

Who is this meant to be a vote for? (And did you really not know this was a bastard game when you signed up?)

Anyway, I think it's most sensible to just treat this as an ordinary game for the time being. (The "bastard" games I've seen on site recently haven't been that terrible, really.)

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Post #1 has been now updated with sample role PMs. Please attempt to ignore the fact that these blatantly contradict the opening flavor (Homer and Marge being mod aligned in the opening flavor while being town in the sample role PMs).

Also, just re-quoting this to make sure everyone sees it:

(Also, I realize that Christmas/New Years are coming up, so if you're going on V/LA, I am very understandable. Just please make sure to notify me of your V/LA.)

(in addition, I am also being somewhat loose with prods this week)
----

Guille2015 has 48 hours to either confirm with me that he has read and understood his role PM or post on the thread, which I will assume means he confirms.

[RichardGHP]

Backup mod checking in. Enjoy the game, people!

[The Rufflig]

Who is this meant to be a vote for? (And did you really not know this was a bastard game when you signed up?)

Inquisitive, excellent.

The vote is obviously for no one - it's a joke.
And no, I really didn't know it was a bastard game. I just looked at the first page of the mini theme queue and saw my choices were The Simpsons or Ed, Edd & Eddie. The Ed trio did not appeal to me, so I picked the Simpsons.

[D3f3nd3r]

I wasn't planning on getting into specifics with that unless people gave a damn. Apparently not yet.

Self-vote + RVS = either humorous, an error, or quite possibly a post restriction, knowing the bastardness.

[saulres]

It seems clear who would be scum name-wise (Fat Tony and his guys, for example).

Is that soft-asking us to nameclaim already? It's quite a bit early with not everyone having even posted yet.

saulres -- what made you suggest that Klick was forced to vote for himself? Both Klick's self-vote and qwints's response seemed like ordinary RVS joking to me.

I was thinking that given it's a bastard game, he might have a bastard role. I inferred that due to the lack of any comment with his self-vote he was forced into making it. qwint's response didn't seem like an RVS one to me, seeing he already had an RVS vote out already.

Turning that back on

qwints and Mhork

: Why do you assume the self-vote is a scum one?

Agree with treating this like a normal game until something bastardly happens.

[DoubleJD]

VOTE: lord mhork

Smilely faces equal scum.

[Lord Mhork]

Just trust me, saulres. I'm, like, 36% sure about it. Although I think I've seen klick self vote before. I don't know. :/

Why no love for the smilies, JD?

[Lord Mhork]

Oh, and more serious, I don't think the self vote would be a post restriction. It doesn't make any sense for it to be.

[havingfitz]

VOTE: Baby Spice

[Ztife]

Oh, and more serious, I don't think the self vote would be a post restriction. It doesn't make any sense for it to be.

Why not? For flavour, there isn't much of a need for making sense does it?

VOTE: havingfitz

for not having a reason for voting.
