Mini 113:Peril in Per-Djehuty (Game Over)

[Thoth]

The town of Per-Djehuty used to be all nice and quiet. There was some crime, but nothing serious. The local policeforce had it all under control and only recently announced the complete elimination of all organised crime in Per-Djehuty.

Things have changed though. Bodies start to show up, the police station is in utter chaos. Policemen running around , but nobody seems to do anything constructive. At the counter a woman is crying about her 3 missing sons, but noone is helping her.

It is time to do something about it. You want Per-Djehuty to become the nice, quiet town it used to be again. To do this you've decided to thoroughly weed out all crime. Every day all of you come together and pick one of your number to kill until no more bodies show up at night.

Player list:

Living residents:

Argoti

Rules:

Stolen in clear daylight.

• Votes must be in
  bold
  . If you do not bold your vote, it will not be counted.
  
• Please be attentive and
  unvote
  , if necessary, before casting a new vote. This is not
  required
  , but I’d appreciate it.
  
• Executions will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, his pleas are useless and any attempts to unvote will be unheeded. You may
  vote: no lynch
  – majority votes of this kind are necessary to end the day without a death.
  
• When discussion is slow I will set a deadline. At the time of the deadline the player with the most votes is lynched provided this is at least half the regular required number of votes to lynch.
  
• The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so.
  
• Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. Stop typing.
  
• Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts
  
• Don’t quote any PMs from me.
  
• If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. I will not wait for you – if you do not submit a choice to me, tough! No choice will be made.
  
• If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread.
  Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.
  
• Remember, it’s a game. It’s supposed to played. It’s supposed to be
  fun
  . Do your part.

[Thoth]

Still waiting for one confirmation.

[Thoth]

All confirmations are in. We're ready to roll.

It is now Night 1. Everyone that has not yet send in a choice please do so now.

Deadline Saturday 6AM (EST).

[Thoth]

Well done town. All night choices in early .

Dragon Phoenix was patrolling the streets. For years he walked these streets in his uniform with people looking up to him. Last year he retired from the force and could finally relax. He hated every single minute of it. This night he took out his gun and decided to make himself useful again. He would make his streets as save as they used to be .
Unfortunately his reflexes are not what they used to be. When a dark figure approached him he tried to raise his gun, but the figure raised his faster.

Dragon Phoenix (vigilante) was shot.

It is now day. With 11 alive it takes 6 to lynch.

This game is slowing down too much. I know it was the weekend, but even then. I'm setting a

Deadline at Thursday 3AM (EST)

. Should discussion pick up before that time or enough players request it, it may be lifted.

[Thoth]

Deadline is lifted for now as discussion has picked up a lot. For possible future deadlines it will be half the usual number of votes to lynch with ties broken by being the first to reach that number. I'll add it to the rules.

vote count:

MeMe 4 (mlaker, Argoti, gashlycrumb, BlueSin)
Argoti 1 (Uraj45)
big_kahunia 1 (BeyondTheGame)
gashlycrumb 1 (MeMe)
Narninian 1 (big_kahunia)

6 to lynch

Mod Note: I'm travelling to Sweden tomorrow, making it unlikely that I access the site then. From monday onwards I have full access over there.

[Thoth]

vote count:

Maverick 3 (Fuldu, BeyondTheGame, BlueSin)
BlueSin 2 (MeMe, Argoti)
Argoti 1 (Uraj45)

Not voting: Narninian, Maverick, gashlycrumb, big_kahunia, mlaker

As discussion is winding down again and the day has lasted quite long already I'm setting a new deadline at

Friday 6AM EST

. It's unlikely that this deadline will be lifted.

6 to lynch
3 to lynch at deadline. On a tie the player reaching this number first is lynched.

[Thoth]

Day 1 final vote count:

Maverick 3 (Fuldu, BeyondTheGame, BlueSin)
BlueSin 2 (MeMe, Argoti)
Argoti 1 (Uraj45)

Not voting: Narninian, Maverick, gashlycrumb, big_kahunia, mlaker

And thus Maverick is lynched at deadline with the minimum amount of votes necessary.

Well done town. You've found yourself a member of the Mafia.

It is now night 2. Deadline Tuesday 3AM (EST).

[Thoth]

Still missing many choices. I've prodded the missing ones and will extend the deadline until Thursday.

[Thoth]

Fuldu was quite anxious. He'd been looking for his partner for 2 nights now and not a sign of him yet. When he takes another turn he bumps into someone and immediately recognizes him. 'There you are. I've been looking all over for you. Where have you been?'.... 'What's this' he says when he looks at the knife protruding from his stomach, when at the same time a bullet hits him in the back of his head.

Fuldu (cop) was shot and gutted

Day 2 has started. With 9 alive it takes 5 to lynch.

[Thoth]

The town closes in on Uraj45 and 5 people grab him. He desperately tries to wriggle free shouting 'Hey, I'm a cop, you know me. I've been in the force for 25 years' meanwhile showing his shiny badge....

The town just ignores him while someone gets a rope and puts it around his neck.

'25 years' he exclaims. '25 years I've given you the best I've got and what did it get me? Did anyone appreciate it? Damn you all.'
You quickly drop him and let him bungle until he chokes.

Uraj45(Serial Killer) was lynched.

The days final vote count:

Uraj45 5 (gashlycrumb, BlueSin, mlaker, big_kahunia, MeMe)

Not voting: Narninian, BeyondTheGame, Argoti, Uraj45

It is now Night 3. Deadline Monday 2AM (EST).

[Thoth]

Narninian was getting kind of frustrated. Up and about for 2 nights in a row and still no positive results. Optimistic as ever he had high hopes for the this night though. All packed up and ready he walked out of the door only to catch a bullet to the head.

Narninian (cop) was shot.

[Thoth]

I don't want to give a deadline this early in the day, but if posting does not pick up soon it there will be one!

[Thoth]

vote count:

big_kahunia 2 (MeMe, mlaker)
BlueSin 2 (big_kahunia, Argoti)

Not voting: BeyondTheGame, gashlycrumb, BlueSin

4 to lynch

[Thoth]

I'm very sorry all. My son had over 39 degrees fever during the weekend and he just kept me occupied continuously (with my wife in China of course). I managed to get online a minute Saturday, but he immediately woke up.
He's fine again now btw with me sitting like a dead bird at work.

Todays's final vote count

BlueSin 4 (big_kahunia, Argoti, MeMe, beyondthegame)
big_kahunia 2 (gashlycrumb, BlueSin)

The town gathers around BlueSin. He protests, proclaiming his innocence, but the rest of the town will have none of that and he's quickly dragged to the nearest tree for a very smooth hanging.

BlueSin (Mafia) was lynched.

It's now Night 4. Night will end Thursday 9AM (CET). Earlier if I have all choices before that.

[Thoth]

It had taken mlaker a while to find his family back. Now he would make sure never to lose sight of them again. Just getting an icecream should be no problem though, or so he thought. Unfortunately for him someone else thought different about this. As soon as mlaker stepped around the corner he caught a bullet to the side of his head.

mlaker (lost brother) was shot.

Day 4 has started.

PS:
Thanks to everyone for the good wishes. Unfortunately my son's fever returned, but as he has no other symptoms whatsoever it really looks like there's nothing. My wife's taking him to the doctor today, just to make sure though. Glad she's back. It's a lot easier to take care of a sick child when you're with 2.

[Thoth]

I've prodded gashlycrumb.

[Thoth]

Prod has been picked up, but still no response. I'll go looking for a replacement.

[Thoth]

Jadesmar is replacing gashlycrumb

big_kahunia 2 (MeMe, Argoti)
MeMe 1 (big_kahunia)

3 to lynch

[Thoth]

The town slowly gathers around big_kahunia. He struggles a bit, but quickly resigns in his fate and offers no resistance when you string him up. When you search through his possessions and find a gun plus his membership card of the cosa nostra. He was the final Mafia member.

Congratulations town. You've cleared your home from all the evil elements.

Roles and night choices will follow shortly.

[Thoth]

Roles:

Maverick, BlueSin, big_kahunia (Mafia)
Maverick, BlueSin, big_kahunia: The three of you form the Mafia together. For years you've been doing your business quietly, but lately people seem to be closing down on you. You decide it might be safer to get rid of the rest of the town and start afresh. Every night you can talk about the game with each other and afterwards send me the name of the player you want to kill.

Uraj45 (Serial Killer)
For years you've worked hard as a policeman fighting crime and protecting citizens. But did they appreciate that. Did they show you some gratitude. No. Yesterday was your 25th anniversary with the force. All you've got was some whiner complaining about a ticket. You've had it with this town and its people. You just can't wait long enough until they are all dead. Every night you can send me the name of one player you wish to kill. Next to that you can send me the name of a different player you wish to investigate. When dawn breaks you will receive the role of that player.

BeyondTheGame, gashlycrumb, mlaker (potential mason)
You knew you should keep them in your sight, but when you saw that new Jaguar in the showroom you got distracted. Now you just can't seem to find them anymore. You're searching for your 2 lost brothers. At night you can send me the name of one player. If this is one of your brothers I will tell you so and from the next night onwards you are allowed to communicate with him at night.
You knew you should keep them in your sight, but when you saw that new 3GHz laptop in the shop you got distracted. Now you just can't seem to find them anymore. You're searching for your 2 lost brothers. At night you can send me the name of one player. If this is one of your brothers I will tell you so and from the next night onwards you are allowed to communicate with him at night.
You knew you should keep them in your sight, but when you saw that friendly waittress smile at you, you got distracted. Now you just can't seem to find them anymore. You're searching for your 2 lost brothers. At night you can send me the name of one player. If this is one of your brothers I will tell you so and from the next night onwards you are allowed to communicate with him at night.
Note: A pair that found each other only sends in one choice.

Argoti (Doctor)
You are the town's doctor. Every night you send me the name of one player you wish to protect. That player can not be killed that night. You can not protect yourself.

Dragon Phoenix (Vigilante)
For years you've worked hard as a policeman fighting crime and protecting citizens. Now that you're retired you spend your hours doing nothing, waiting for your grandchildren to come visit you (they rarely do). Finally you decide to try and get one more good catch. You still have your gun and take it to patrol the streets, but this time you want to finish the job yourself. Damn lawyers getting all this scum free. Once during the game you can send in a player's name that you want to shoot. Think of the fame it will get you eliminating some scum once and for all.

MeMe (Back-up Cop)
You've just started your new job as a policeman, but already your in the midst of things. One homicide case after another. Every night you can send me the name of a player you wish to investigate. At the start of the day I'll let you know whether that player is good or evil.
Note: Naive as long as real cop is alive. From the night after his death onwards results will be correct.

Narninian (Cop)
For years you had a nice quite live in the police force. Just when you're one year away from retirement you get this. One homicide case after another. Now you'll have to put in some serious work that last year. Every night you can send me the name of a player you wish to investigate. At the start of the day I'll let you know whether that player is good or evil.

Fuldu (SK cop)
You've always known your partner in the police force was on the edge. Now he has disappeared just when you were organising a party for his 25th year in the force. More shocking is that bodies start to pop up. You're afraid your partner has lost it and decide to go after him. Every night you can send me the name of one player you want to investigate. I'll let you know whether it is your former partner or not.


Night choices:
Night 1
Argoti protects BlueSin
BeyondTheGame finds gashlycrumb
Fuldu investigates BeyondTheGame (not his partner)
gashlycrumb tries DP (Fails)
MeMe investigates Narninian (innocent)
mlaker tries MeMe (Fails)
Narninian investigates DP (no result)
Mafia kills Dragon Phoenix
Uraj45 tries to kill BlueSin and investigates MeMe(back-up cop)

Night 2
Argoti protects MeMe
Fuldu investigates Uraj45 (would have found his partner)
BTG/gashlycrumb find mlaker
MeMe investigates mlaker (innocent)
mlaker finds gashlycrumb
Narninian invstigates MeMe (innocent)
Mafia kills Fuldu
Uraj45 kills Fuldu

Night 3
Argoti protects MeMe
MeMe investigates BlueSin (innocent)
Narninian investigates BlueSin (would have received evil)
Mafia kills Narninian

Night 4
Argoti protects BTG
MeMe investigates big_kahunia
Mafia kills mlaker

Night 2 was pretty interesting with both Fuldu and Uraj45 doing very well by finding each other.
The town did very well, lynching scum every day.
Uraj45 was a bit unlucky with his investigations. Finding someone whose role was already known and finding the one player (MeMe) that did not receive her actual role name. He would have had a better chance if he would have found a Mafia member in one of his investigations

It looks like the lost brother part was too strong. I did not expect that the 3 of them would find each other so fast and still all be alive, but in hindsight it was not all that unlikely. I probably should have gone with my first setup which was only 2 of them and 1 basic townie.

Thanks for playing all of you and please let me know what I should improve for my next game.

[Thoth]

I don't really like regular backup cops, so I made a naive one that gains experience and would get sane results after the regular cop died. I also hoped for what actually happened: getting an innocent result on scum and later getting a correct guilty result. The game was too far for it to matter, but I still kind of like the idea.
