Newbie 279: Game Over!

[MeMe]

What a nasty little town this has become. Mafia have arrived and are systematically gunning down the nice townfolk. What should decent, smart people do?

MOVE

, of course. What are YOU gonna do? Try to figure out who the bad guys are and lynch 'em during the daylight! I'm not kidding, folks. That's the plan. Deal with it.

(Mafia) - lynched Day 3

No current deadline

~~~~~~~~~~~~
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, we will start in the day phase, although most larger games start with a night. The mafia will be allowed to communicate pre-game, though no role will submit choices until Day 1 is over.

Possible roles:

You are the mafia

. You may only talk with each other during the game's "night," 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 are the cop

. Every "night" before the deadline you send me a message 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 message 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

:

• 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.

[MeMe]

All confirmations have been received.

With seven of you alive, it'll take four votes to lynch. Game on!

[Ozymandius]

Well, we have to do somthing don't we? Can't have scum walking around this town... I'll just have to vote randomly I guess.

Vote: Eon

[Adele]

Vote: Ozymandius

.

Waaaay too lynch-happy

[Ozymandius]

I'm new, I have looked at other games to try to fomulate a strategy. Perhaps I didn't do enough research, if you think my actions are suspicious.

Adele is right you are coming off as a

rope happy

. But, this consent to being so new adds an interesting flavor in my mouth. I am definitly sure that we need to keep a close eye on you. But, Adele may be too harsh to put you through the knot because your zeal.

Vote: re2fan

[Adele]

"rope happy"? That's not even a word!

[Eon]

You didnt do any research!

[Ozymandius]

I did too do research. look at Newbie 267. Playswithsquirrels starts off by saying "1st post! Also, Vote: Falcone."

Which in essesnce is what I did, and he didn't get immediatly attacked.

Newbie 278: Sailor Jerry is the last to confirm, immidiately saying:
"Yeah I'm here!

What are we waiting for? Everyone vote: ChannelDelibird!

Wahey! "

Again, with no ill effects quite like mine.

Newbie 270:

Lowell votes Spr Cobra on the first post.

Mafia 49 - Speedy KQ's Big New York Game

From the first post by Glork:

"FIRST POST!!

Vote: Machiavellian-Mafia, because I've never heard of or played with you before."

And no straigt up accusations against him.

We probably don't quite see eye to eye, and I don't know about you, but I'm seeing a pattern here, so don't tell me I haven't done any research. Look them up. If you're not convinced, I bet there are more.

So, you did some research to try and appear as townie as possible?

[Adele]

Okay, joke's over. Seriously, guys. This is just mean.

Ozy, you didn't do anything wrong; random votes are a standard (though controversial) game-starter, and there's no legitimacy in attacking someone purely for following that convention. I was just playing with you. The others saw me gently poking fun and decided to escalate it to wedgies (/glares).

Stop it now. Let's wagon someone else!

[Shepherd_of_Wolves]

"rope happy"? That's not even a word!

You are very correct, this is not even

a word

. If you ask me, it appears to be

two words

. However, it can constitute as

a

rhetorical statement.

[Shepherd_of_Wolves]

You didnt do any research!

What premise did you have to conclude that our friend, Ozymandius, did not research his stuff? I think that you are worried that he is on to your scummy stench. It sounds like you were trying to play an attack on a frivolous newbie due to his awkward honesty.

[Ozymandius]

So, you did some research to try and appear as townie as possible?

I was primarily looking at how to start this thing out. I'm not trying to "appear" townie if you're implying that I'm scum, just looking for a good way to disgiuse myself, which I can assure you I'm not.

My post was more aimed at Eon for pretty much calling me a liar. It only futhers my suspicion of him being scum, but of course you all can draw your own conclusions.

Vote: Shepherd

So wait he voted against me then told he did research, without saying what kind of research i told that and then he gave me result. Right now you are trying to create elephant out of fly. I dont mind if he voted me because that was RANDOM and i didnt say anything like "Get your vote off me". He gave me result of his research im happy.
I told that "You didnt do any research" Before he posted it so you have something to say now?

[BlueSin]

hello guys.
random

vote: Damian

hmm..interesting arguement going on..

FOS: Eon

for being over defensive at the moment.. Ozy gave research on random vote first day, not on how suspicious you are...that is just random vote I think..

[Eon]

BlueSin he didnt give anything on me just i think Ripleys reason and way he understood my post is totaly wrong.

[Shepherd_of_Wolves]

BlueSin he didnt give

anything on me

just i think Ripleys reason and way he understood my post is totaly wrong.

If I am understanding this statement, you are saying you thought that Ozy was claiming to have researched YOUR playing tactics. So you accussed him of not doing any research on YOU, right?

If this is the case, you were not clear about it. I thought you were telling him that he did not research general game play style. Using a big fat explanation mark (!) at the end of your statement reporting that he did not research was a bold move on your part. As far as I could tell, the ! mark did not make your statement against him appear "fly sized". I wanted to know why you were so strong in accussing him of not doing research. However, I have not made the issue an "elephant". I was just calling your boldness as you expressed it by the explanation mark (!).

I think that I understand you now. I believe that you were saying he did not research YOU. If this is what you meant, then I can understand the ! mark. But if this is not what you meant and your intend was to question his research, then you should have used a ? mark to be clear that you were questioning.

In anycase, all of us should wonder why

re2fan

is lurking. My vote is still on him.

Mod

can you prode him to see if he is still alive. It has been several days and he has nothing to say.

[re2fan]

I have nothing to say still

[Adele]

I have nothing to say still

Clearly evil.

vote: re2fan

[BlueSin]

re2fan please contribute something...

unvote
vote Adele

too vote-happy..

[Adele]

too vote-happy..

2 votes ever.

If anything, get yourself into a tizz about me putting the second vote on re2fan. It'll start an fun and exciting discussion!

...yep. Not predictable and oft-repeated

in the slightest

. No sirree.

[Eon]

I have nothing to say also at this moment because this is random voting day also BlueSin.
And Shephard

If I am understanding this statement, you are saying you thought that Ozy was claiming to have researched YOUR playing tactics. So you accussed him of not doing any research on YOU, right?

...if you continue something like this im going to cry. OZY DIDNT CLAIM HE WAS RESEARCHING MY TACTICS AND I DIDNT THINK SO. And i with sort of a joke accused him for not DOING IT. AND AFTER THAT POST HE POSTED HIS REASEARCH!

You are holding for air Shepherd and definately try to get attention off you while to blame others.

And after your words i wont even bother to change my vote. People who create elephant out of fly are usualy on different side of town.

[re2fan]

Vote: Adele.
