Mafia 90-Lolwat? Mafia, Game Over, Mafia Win

Confirming.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Knight, off topic: Isn't that a Muse song? Does the name have any significance?

Yup. No significance though, I just like the name.

Lowell - may I ask, if you're in a mixed mason group, what, precisely, was the point of revealing it D1?

[Knight of Cydonia]

Oh, well, that's alright. [/sarcasm]

[Knight of Cydonia]

So, in other words, you don't know if it's mixed, but you're assuming it, and outing their existence anyway.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Yes, but still... Meh.

[Knight of Cydonia]

FoS: GnKoichi

for his "town or not, you might as well be lynched" comment.
While not a strong scumtell, since I've seen townies get frustrated with idiots before, it is still worrying, since it's essentially an excuse to push a mislynch and say "I did say "even if he is town it helps us".

[Knight of Cydonia]

Ack. Tag fail.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Happy birthday OP.

Vino... man, seriously.
Anyway, so, yeah. Vino or Yos for scum, and the Vino lynch could very possibly confirm the presence of scum mason/s. If there are more than 1 scum mason, I'd look at PoS next.

[Knight of Cydonia]

I'm almost at the point where I'm pissed off enougfh to policy lynch roflcopter for being an absolute fucktard.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Ugh. Right, you know what?

unvote; Vote roflcopter

Because I'm fed up of you leading the town into a massive circle-jerk about sk masons and how yos is very funny and quite frankly, if I had tits, you'd be getting on them. As it is, the only reason I'm not pulling my hair out is because the chemo will do a quicker job of getting it out. But only just. That's how fucking annoying you are.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Well, it's generally not a good idea, but what with the supposed scum-masons, I guess that means nothing. It's fluff on PotS' part, and should be ignored.

[Knight of Cydonia]

^^^ That's what I've done.
And unlike you, I don't spew out the first half-formed, half-witted idea that pops into my head. Rest assured, I'm not done with Koichi yet. I just think there aare better lynches - and yours is one of them.

Let me put it this way people - if we get to the final day, with 2 confirmed townies, and 3 unconfirmed, including roflcopter - do you

really

want him pissing on this game and making it impossible to read?

[Knight of Cydonia]

Stranger, you only just make more sense than roflcopter. Sober up please.
Not, but seriously, I think voting for someone is enough of a push for one person.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Lowell - for once, I agree with you. About the whole "policy-lynch someone who self-votes" bit, at least. I've thought about it, and frankly, Penguins was always only just behind Vino and roflcopter for me, so unless I get told explicitly not to, I will hammer within the nexxt hour or so.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Lowell - for once, I agree with you. About the whole "policy-lynch someone who self-votes" bit, at least. I've thought about it, and frankly, Penguins was always only just behind Vino and roflcopter for me, so unless I get told explicitly not to, I will hammer within the nexxt hour or so.

Hey that's interesting, Lowell just said that HE WILL NOT policy lynch me for self voting.

And you say that you AGREE.

I said I agreed with Lowell when he said that he usually would policy lynch someone for self-voting. I agreed with him on "that bit". I did not agree that you weren't worth the hammer.

But then you CONTRADICT yourself, and that you're ready to lynch me within the HOUR unless told differently?

Like what are the chances that someone will come and defend me within ONE HOUR???

Well, you're doing it, for starters, Koichi is here... an hour is enough, IMHO

And besides, I'm not even at minus one. SOMEONE is VERY, VERY eager to lynch.

Then why did you state that you were? This is a trap alright - a sympathy trap. As soon as townies state that they're willing to hammer self-voting scum, you unvote and accuse them

You ARE on my scum list for a reason, KoC.

A reason which is a pile of crap. Here's a shovel - it'll dig that hole a little quicker

unvote

[Knight of Cydonia]

You can't self vote and then accuse someone else of pushing an early lynch.

I HAVE DONE NOTHING OF THE SORT, SCUM BAG.

Except you just did - you accused me of pushing for the lynch too quickly when I said I would give you an hour.

[Knight of Cydonia]

What? THat was a perfectly good point, Penguins... sheesh.

[Knight of Cydonia]

The annoying thing is, I can't hammer you yet. Need some other bright spark, since you're at L-2, AFAIK. Shame.
At least we agree on something - I can't wait for you to die either, scum.

[Knight of Cydonia]

No, I'm willing to vote, but to be honest, I really want to hammer you, since you're pissing me off so much. So, I'm not chickening out, I'm just happy to wait for a fellow townie to give me a boost.

[Knight of Cydonia]

I think, if anything, Penguins, surely it should be scummier for me to put you at L-1 than to hammer? Surely the fact I'm willing to wait, and put my neck on the line by hammering, is less cowardly than to just put you at L-1 and wait?
Oh, and I always write "fellow townie", regardless of role, unless I think someone is scum. You really are reaching.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Sweet mother of God, you people are so easily taken in. Well done Penguins, you turned it around. Good luck explaining yourself tomorrow when I really do flip 'Nilla.

unvote: Vote Knight of Cydonia

OH POOR ME, YOU ALL SUCK, WAH WAH WAH.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Srsly.
Now go away, I'm trying to enjoy this last vat of vanilla extract before the scum counterwagons me to an untimely grave.

[Knight of Cydonia]

They say that there's a broken heart for every light on Broadway,
They say that Life's a game, and then they take the board away,
They give you masks and costumes, and an outline of the story,
Then leave you all to improvise their vicious cabaret...

[Knight of Cydonia]

The patrons, and the actors too,
Are uncertain if the show is through,
And with sidelong looks await their cue,
But the frozen mask just smiles.

[Knight of Cydonia]

There's a policeman with an honest soul
Who has seen the head upon the pole
And he grunts and fills his beggar's bowl
With a feeling of great unease.

[Knight of Cydonia]

The widows that refuse to die
Shall be dressed in three-piece and bow tie
and be forced to kick whilst they hang high
in this vicious cabaret.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Ah! At last, the 2009 show!
The ballet upon the burning stage!
Poems upon a cRumpled page!
The documentary seen on fractured screen.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Certainty is a marvelous thing,
Secreted from the bastard's poison ring,
And as the canary gaily sings,
The fumes are growing thicker.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Ah! At last, the 2009 show!
The ballet upon the burning stage!
Poems upon a cRumpled page!
The documentary seen on fractured screen.

The torch-lit song no-one ever sings!
The curfew chorus line whose voice rings!
The vulgar comedy turned divine!
Listen now, in four-four time!

[Knight of Cydonia]

The dagger's point is often veiled,
the bloodshed it's whetted steel entailed,
until, in form of lowly moth,
the drunkard finds a way through bloody cloth.

[Knight of Cydonia]

THe penguin and lynx with their ears tight shut,
come up with foul riddles barely better than smut,
and while the reader in his grey robe sees red
all kinds of mystery floats over their head.

[Knight of Cydonia]

The cougar's anger leads it to bite,
But before we reach untimely night,
He might do better to aim his teeth
at one who truly deserves to be six beneath.

Name: 'Nilla Ice
Flavor: The straight-up craziest rapper in all of 'Nilla land. Go you.
Alignment: Town--You win when all non-neutral factions besides the town are dead.
Role: Vanilla Townie with Post Restriction.
Passive Abilities

Can't Deal with Haters:

If, at any point, you gain 1/3 or more of the votes needed to lynch, you must post in rap, or rhyme at least, until you lose those votes.

Since I'm a white guy, and I clearly can't rap,
I thought I might as well resort to this so-called "crap".
Now with all respect due to such player-haters,
Unvote so I can speak true, sooner rather than later.

[Knight of Cydonia]

I still have three votes - I know, how absurd,
but at least now in this I can have the final word.
With gleeful abandon like Ulysses leaping 'twixt boat,
I shall jump in air, and cry

unvote.

Thank jesus. This is almost as bad as the PR I'm currently enduring in another (ongoing) game, where I have to alliterate and use a metaphor in EVERY POST.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Aw shit.
Fucking Coug.
And Vino - I had a copy of V for Vendetta open when I saw that damned wagon roll in, and I couldn't think of anything else - I'm not exactly a masterful poet.
Well, I started so I'll finish, I guess.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Yos - my post restriction is exactly as quoted. I can only post in lines that rhyme.
That could be rap, or full epic saga petry, but after I started with a four-liner from This Vicious Cabaret, I decided in go on in that form.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Yes. I figured if PotS was going to play a trap, I might as well try and turn the bear-trap's teeth outward. I was already a teeny bit pissed that Penguins had gotten away with what felt like a massive obvscum play to me, and a teeny bit more pissed I had to start rhyming. I decided to use that anger constructively, rather than destructively. Well done to those who guessed it might have been a trap on the trap. The reactions were interesting... rofl and penguin leaped off that wagon so fast I got friction burn.

Concerning the penguin wagon... okay, 1 hour was perhaps stupid. a day, a couple of days... in retrospect, it wasn't the brightest thing that I've done as town. I expected more people to be online, since I work on GMT (Real Time).
Also, if anyone has any specific poems that don't make sense to them, I'd be happy to clarify them - in fact, my next post, I'll find all the poems and explain what I was trying to say.

[Knight of Cydonia]

The patrons, and the actors too,
Are uncertain if the show is through,
And with sidelong looks await their cue,
But the frozen mask just smiles.

The first poem was intended to be such a different style of post people would see it was a PR. This, the second, was me waiting for the scum to rush onto my wagon.

There's a policeman with an honest soul
Who has seen the head upon the pole
And he grunts and fills his beggar's bowl
With a feeling of great unease.

If I live past today, and the (hypothetical) Cop has any conscience, please, for the love of God, clear me.

The widows that refuse to die
Shall be dressed in three-piece and bow tie
and be forced to kick whilst they hang high
in this vicious cabaret.

My word, the scum are taking their time jumping on... perhaps they've noticed this is all a play.

Ah! At last, the 2009 show!
The ballet upon the burning stage!
Poems upon a cRumpled page!
The documentary seen on fractured screen.

Did NOBODY spot the PR breadcrumb here? Considering my grammar and spelling are usually pretty good, I thought it might have been seen.

Certainty is a marvelous thing,
Secreted from the bastard's poison ring,
And as the canary gaily sings,
The fumes are growing thicker.

Amazing how certain Yos is that I'm going to flip scum. The accusations of SK perhaps make a little sense now. I see the wagon is building up... but slowly.

THe next poem was essentially me screaming "FOR GODS SAKE CAN'T YOU SEE THE REALLY OBVIOUS PR BREADCRUMB?"

THe penguin and lynx with their ears tight shut,
come up with foul riddles barely better than smut,
and while the reader in his grey robe sees red
all kinds of mystery floats over their head.

This was, in fact, a reference to Penguin and roflcopter (A Lynx is a Chopper used by the RAF and Royal Navy), and commented on how they seemed to be amazingly ignorant that these might have some significance. I was wearing a grey top that day.

The dagger's point is often veiled,
the bloodshed it's whetted steel entailed,
until, in form of lowly moth,
the drunkard finds a way through bloody cloth.

Vino = Wino = Drunkard.
Vino seemed to be the only person to think this might have been a PR. Well done you, you "got the point".

The cougar's anger leads it to bite,
But before we reach untimely night,
He might do better to aim his teeth
at one who truly deserves to be six beneath.

StrangerCoug, rage votes are not the answer. There are far more worthy lynches out there - assuming you're misguided town, get off before scum start to get on in numbers.

And I think the last two poems are self explanatory.

[Knight of Cydonia]

That's a pretty quick turnaround from your last post, Lowell.

I say we just get on with it and don't worry about a replacement.

Reasons?

[Knight of Cydonia]

But I want an explanation from KoC. His role said that with 1/3 or more votes than is needed for a lynch, he has to rap/rhyme. So how come, there are posts which aren't following this rule? The best example can be found at page 24, where you have 5 votes and still talk normally. So please explain.

I got a warning PM from the mod concerning that post. Dunno how many more times I can break the PR, accidentally or not, but I'm already stepping the line.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Each day will last 2*living players+2, apparently, so we have 34 days for D1.
We've used 31, so if I'm right, we have 3 days to lynch.

Lynching: It takes a 50%+1 majority to lynch. If at deadline, this changes to 50%. If this is not reached at deadline, then it will be a No Lynch.

So have to choose either someone particularly scummy today, or to deal with a lurker, or a no lynch, in the next 3 days.

Mod - could we have a mass prod to alert people to the impending deadline?

[Knight of Cydonia]

...I hate it when people do this. At least put your vote somewhere, give an outline, and then explain it better later.

[Knight of Cydonia]

15 days? Damn Gina, I so stoopid. Forgot the replacement extra-time.

does this day really have to drag on for that much longer, or can we just lynch litral already?

You seem to really be rather lynch-happy. You've basically been jumping on any prospective wagon possible, and then instead of giving reasons, just agreeing with PotS (until s/he went over to Empking) and then repeating variations of "can we just lynch ??? already?" Active lurking, definition of. I wouldn't call it a concrete scumtell, since a lot of players who are used to EpicMafia et al are pretty impatient, but then again, you've had a lot of time to acclimatise... so it does worry me.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Actually, several people wrote that it was actually 15 days to deadline long before you made that post, rofl. I already think you're a bit scummy, now I can add Lynch all Liars to that.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Yeah, I don't really get it.
Mostly because I've been awake for 72 hours and have too much sugar in my system.

[Knight of Cydonia]

And LAL is perfectly valid if the accused is (as roflcopter was trying to do) lying to brush off a perfectly valid accusation. So why did you do that, Vino?

[Knight of Cydonia]

Mod - I will be absent from the site between the 14th and 22nd, due to unavoidable circumstances.

[Knight of Cydonia]

...And this is why I wanted to hammer PotS. Because she's actually ADMITTING her case is weak, and somehow getting away with it.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Ugh. consequence of speed-reading: thought you were admitting your case on Emp was weak.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Mod: Prod Empking/Alts?

[Knight of Cydonia]

Hallelujah.

[Knight of Cydonia]

I will put my vote somewhere this week, but I won't be around for deadline. It's likely to be a dump vote.

knight of cydonia continues to lurk and then just come in with random poetry. Funnily enough this does work. People, for the most part, do not put votes on him and instead focus on other people.

I think I will vote :koc

This whole stringing out of his readthrough feels artificial to me - and if you'd read through all my poetry phase, you'd note that once it was confirmed PM's could be full-quoted, I quoted my role, which has a PR activated by a certain number of votes.

[Knight of Cydonia]

ThAd - I find that part of your summary scummy because it implies that you had read past the point where I told the town I had a PR. Not to mention the fact that you picked an incredibly odd point to stop reading if you are telling the truth, and the fact that if you did stop before I revealed my PR, you're lying because there was quite a lot of attention on me, and a fair few votes, IIRC.

[Knight of Cydonia]

In case I don't get a chance to lay a vote down before I go absent:

Vote: ThAdmiral

Didn't like Litral much, I feel the readthrough is just an artifical construct to make him appear like he's contributing now... And to be honest, I can't see any other options right now.

Koichi, stop parodying and give reasoning.
PotS, while I may be on the LitrAdmiral wagon, it isn't "collective wisdom" until a majority says so, so stop portraying it as such.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Hey, thanks for giving us more useful content, Emp.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Weakest. Vote. Ever.
Sticking with ThAd over my period of absence. Lynch him while I'm gone, pretty please.

[Knight of Cydonia]

That's L-2... meh. I think Koichi is frankly just as fed up with the "me-too"-isms of rofl and PotS as I was, so it's a null tell. I will have no part in his wagon, since I still consider ThAd a superior lynch.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Um, yeah... note my absence from now until the 22nd?

[Knight of Cydonia]

Bah, bloody cult going after me as I die, I love being a cultist.
Go team.

[Knight of Cydonia]

Cult depresses me.
