Mini 1953: XP Mafia (Game Over)

[gerryoat]

Also setup was fun, I would love a part 2 and would play in one. Hopefully next time I'll have XP, I mostly went without any lol

[Something_Smart]

@something smart what would have been my upgraded role?

It's in the mod thread, but you would have been able to kill for free.

[Vaxkiller]

gg

Thanks mod for a well crafted game.

[Vaxkiller]

It was a little slow in the beginning but it def picked up at the end.

Well suck.

If I did not think Srceen had been blocked by mastina N5 I would not have wavered from wanting mastina lynched. I don't feel like going back through the game to see why...but iirc Srceen made comments that did seem to indicate he was most likely blocked. (i.e. getting the same results both nights he was claimed to have been blocked).

Maki...did you not have the option of vig'ing N6?

I'm surprised the gerry wagon didn't get more traction yesterday as I think most town thought he was scum.

mastina was at L-1 for much of yesterday so that was definitely a missed opportunity.

Question for scum...why NK drealm N5 instead of a tracker and not even block the tracker? One of the reasons I discounted mastina and gerry being a team was because I could not imagine them putting themselves in the situation of having been tracked and what I considered an unnecessary situation D5.

Scum blocking Vijareda the same night Vij tracked the killer was lucky as hell for scum but didn't wind up hurting town as there was no lynch D2 and Ghostlin died N3 anyway (thanks to a great play by yurkin).

Vij not getting a track off N2 sucked.

Srceen...you were obsessed with Maki...did you really need to track her 3 times? Awesome choice btw of loyal tracking mastina...sorry that didn't work out as it should have.

Congrats scum.

Awesome set up mod. As much as it sucked to not be able to lynch the first 2 days it was still very enjoyable. And once the lynches were available all the other upgrades and actions made it a very entertaining game. I would totally play in this set up again. Thanks for all the work you put in to it.

Dreal wasn't being lynched, and he had a lot of XP so it was just good to kill him at that point. If I ended up being tracked, I was just going to make it a 1v1 and just say "he's doing a fake guilty gambit on mylo" We didn't know what your ability would be, and it could have been something that could have harmed us heavily. Also, I think Mastina figured should wouldn't be tracked at that point (even though she was)

[havingfitz]

You have upgraded your role and gained a new ability!
The first time you would be killed, you will instead survive

@mod...why didn't this apply to Vax's ltnch? That "killed" him.

@Maki...when you faked friendly with gerry why didn't that set off any alarms towards gerry? How would he know you were town? Why would he play along as town knowing you were lying to everyone?

[yurkin]

Vax used up his 1-shot bulletproof when the mafia targeted him n3.

I can only imagine what maki thought about it: if he's scum he will try to take advantage of it. //like to hear maki's answer though.

I can confirm we shot Vax N3; it failed, hence why my and yurkin's corpse were the only things found D4.

By the way, I nominated Something_Smart for a Scummy for this game; if you agree with my opinion, you should express your support in-thread and/or submit a nomination of your own (which would effectively act as a second/third/nth of the nomination). I think he earned it. <3

[mastina]

Also this. <3

[Something_Smart]

Wow, thanks, that means a lot to me.

I'll definitely start brainstorming for a sequel. I have a few different ideas on my modding agenda and I don't know which is gonna be the next to materialize, but if/when I do run the sequel to this, I'll make sure to notify anyone who expressed interest. And if anyone wants to be part of the design process (I know Ghostlin had some suggestions in the dead thread), I will certainly not refuse extra help!

[Assemblerotws]

I'd definitely love to play another round of XP Mafia.

[Scummies]

Congratulations to the victors!

The game has drawn to a close, the jig is up! Some of you have lost, but others have won!

Take a few days, think about the game. Recognize what was best in your teammates and opponents, and consider nominating them for a Scummy! Players and mods in this game may be eligible for one of the following awards:

BODY OF WORK AWARDS

Best Mafia Catcher

: Also known as the Paragon of Mafia Hunters, this award is given to the single town player who, across all of their games for the year, exhibited the best ability for nailing those dirty scumbags and bringing the bad guys to justice while playing as a pro-town role.

Rising Star

: This award is given to the player that is a rising star in the game of mafia, showing great promise to join the elite echelon of mafia players. This award replaces both the Best Newbie award and Most Improved Player awards, and judges may consider elements of both those previous awards in deciding this award.

Excellent Moderation

: Also known as the “The Modfather” Award. This award is given to the moderator who, over the course of the past year, exemplifies the best qualities of a moderator in the operation of the game, including but not limited to quality and frequency of vote counts, organization of the game, dealing with issues that arise, keeping players active, and so forth. Judges may consider how challenging the games a moderator ran were, but they shall not penalize a moderator for only running more basic games. A mod must run at least 3 games to completion in the calendar year to be considered for this award.

SINGLE GAME - PLAYER

Most Cunning Manipulator

: Also known as the “Don Corleone” Award. Awarded to the player who has the strongest single game performance as mafia. In rare cases, where a player feels an entire scumteam gelled to create a strong cohesive scum performance, multiple members of a team may be nominated.

Best Performance Third Party

: Also known as the “Hannibal Lecter” Award. Awarded to the player or players that performed the most impressively in winning their game as a third party.

Most Memorable Event

: Also known as the “Kodak Moment” Award. Awarded to the player or players who were involved in the most memorable event in a game of mafia. Fake claims, funny claims, awesome exchanges, etc. may all be considered for this award

SINGLE GAME - MODERATOR

Best Setup

: Also known as the “Rube Goldberg” Award. Given to the moderator who designed the best setup. Judges may consider the roles involved in a game, how those roles interacted, how balanced a setup was, whether it furthered any particular theme, how the setup interacts with a mechanic, or any other factors the judges deem relevant. This award is distinct, however, from the “Best Mechanic” award in that it does not consider how good or bad any change to the basic way a Mafia game is played.

Best Flavor Text

: Also known as the “Paperback Writer” Award. Given to the moderator who wrote the most compelling flavor text. Judges should consider the flavor text of all parts of the game, including Role PMs and Day/Night scenes. Where appropriate, Judges may consider how well the flavor works with the announced theme.

Best Mechanic/Mutation

: Also known as the "Mad Scientist” Award. Given to the moderator who figured out the most compelling way to change the basic mechanics of the game of mafia, and/or created the most compelling new role or adaptation to increase player enjoyment. Judges shall consider both the basic idea behind the game as well as how well it was executed, and the uniqueness and quality of the role/adaptation.

SITE AWARDS

Game of the Year

: Also known as the “Player’s Choice” Award. This award is given to the moderator of a game. It is given in recognition of the overall excellence of a game. The Game of the Year award is a "catch all" award for the best overall game throughout the entire year, considering all aspects of the game from moderator quality, to the excellent design and composition of the game, to the performance and cohesion of the playerlist. A Game of the Year is meant to be the game that we can all point to later and say "This game was the best game the site could offer that year in terms of Design, Playerlist, and moderating capability." This is a PUBLIC VOTE. [/color]
