Newbie 187 - Game Over

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Tue Jan 24, 2006 11:22 am

Post by mathcam »

Living in the small Sicilian town of Lyfainteasi ain't easy. A new crime syndicate is in town, and its threatening to kill the others off, one by one. You'll have to band together using your respective skills to determine who among you will suffer vigilante justice.

More Alive then Dead
(5)
starkmoon
bigAl
bertrand
Talitha
Ameliaslay

More Dead then Alive
(2)
CreedP (townie, lynched day 1)
Thok (replacing TripMyWire) (townie, killed night 1)

One of the following four set-ups is used for this game:

a) 2 mafia, 1 cop, 1 doc, 3 townies
b) 2 mafia, 1 cop, 4 townies
c) 2 mafia, 1 doc, 4 townies
d) 2 mafia, 5 townies

Note: in view of the number of players and set-up, we will start in the day phase, although most larger games start with a night.

The possible roles:

You are the mafia. You may only talk with each other during the game's "night" (and pre-game) not during the "day." You let me know before the night's deadline who will be your victim. You win the game when all the other players are dead. You have time to talk with your partner until I start the day.

You are the cop. Every "night" before the deadline you send me a PM with a name of your choice, and I will let you know whether that player is mafia or not. You are not allowed to communicate with any of the other players outside the thread. You win the game when the mafia are dead.

You are the doctor. Every "night" before the deadline you send me a PM with a name of your choice, and that player cannot die if attacked by the mafia that night. You cannot heal yourself. You are not allowed to communicate with any of the other players outside the thread. You win the game when the mafia are dead.

You are a townie. You are not allowed to communicate with any of the other players outside the thread. You win the game when the mafia are dead.

The Rules
:
  • Remember, it’s a game. It’s supposed to played. It’s supposed to be
    fun
    . Do your part.
  • 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.
  • 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.

Almost done with confirmations. If they don't finish off soon, I'll find replacements.

Well, by 'random' I picked the first name I reconised on the list, not using a random number generator or anything like that.

Depends on your definition of random. I normally pick a person with whom I've played with most recently to vote for. While the selection process might not be random, the end result is. Especially in these games with no night yet.

I've little to no experience with this, so I'm leaning toward a 'no lynch' vote (I know, that's not an official vote, but I didn't mean for it to be) for now.

No lynches are always bad ideas day 1. The probabilities work out so that even lynching someone randomly is better than no lynch D1. In my first game here (newb 164) we no lynched on day three, when we knew that there was a doc and a cop (myself), so that was time for another investigation.

I wouldn't vote for a No lynch... not with the unknown setup in place. Besides, lynching is so much fun!

And hi there Amelia :mrgreen:
