Mini 1061: Mafia in Someplace - Game Over!

[Slaxx]

I am assuming though, DH, that if no other investigative role claims, you

are

susceptible to die, your prime goal, IMO, would be to function as a weak cop.

Lemme check.

I agree. Just putting all of the possibilities on the table.

[Retrospective]

I can vote and speak during the day and I can prevent a night action by night.

Also, I can go look for my post, but I implied that this was absolutely a doc save somewhere yesterday because I knew there couldn't be a jailkeeper/roleblocker in the same game.

[DemonHybrid]

Right. It's a nightly action then.

So, lets wait for TL, Jase and Benmage.

[Benmage]

I'm just a VT. Did Retro ever claim who he RB'd?

Oh! My bad.

I didn't role block anyone. Both nights. In EM it's considered poor play to roleblock before only one mafia left. Because you could easily stop investigations or doc saves.

I'm going to pick a VT to be on tonight now that I know who the people I should NOT role block are.

o.o what else could it be?

I've been a town RBer before. I've had 2 blocks only. I was just curious if there was a certain restriction.

Weird...I don't think I've seen a RB willfully choose not to RB. I've never been one, but when I was a jk I utilized the role like a RB seeking to stop nks.

Ohhhhhhhh, nope. It doesn't say anything like that.

We're waiting on Jase and TL, right?

JK is different because it serves as a doc. Me RB'ing someone doesn't do anything except stop their night action but if there is more than one mafia the kill still goes through. (Right? Or at least that's how the mechanics work at EM) I saw that I could only do harm by using my night action.

[Benmage]

Well with the block n1 and the doc claim on slaxx I definitely believe those two to be confirmed. Which I'm glad, cause it saves me having to reread slaxxs choo choo simo than sweep switch.

[Slaxx]

choo choo

[Benmage]

I've never been in a game where Mafia had more than 1 nk...let alone a mini.... why after seeing 0 kills n1 did you not use it? Plus isn't blocking 1 kill better than letting 2 go through?

[Benmage]

That's a tough thing to consider without knowing who he hides behind we don't get to know whose scum. However if he hides behind say yourself and scum kill you we lose 2 townies.

I'm not sure what you're saying.

When I was taling about mafia being able to double kill I was referring to DH's hide death. And I can't stop a kill so why use my RB when it could only hinder town? What about that is confusing you? It may not be what you're used to, but that doesn't make me wrong.

[Benmage]

Oh, well you are mistaken. Just cause there is more than one Mafia left doesn't mean you can't block the kill.

[Benmage]

Retro, do you have any completed games on this site?

[Retrospective]

One and I was Jailkeeper actually.

I assumed killing mechanics worked like they did in EM. I've never been mafia in forum mafia, so I just made the assumption.

In that case, I'm sorry. I didn't realize I wasn't using the full potential of this role.

[Benmage]

Which game.

[Jase]

I am a one shot recruting mason. Ooh, how exotic. I successfully recruited El Simo last night. Good night!

[Retrospective]

I'm confused. Why would you pick him?

[DemonHybrid]

Like a neighborizer then.

Unless you know of his alignment.
