Mini 1878: Darkest Dungeon Mafia - VICTORY

[Varsoon]

Crusader gives the holy water provisional item, which nullifies the urn.

lmao @pine

Ah, forgot that. Last time I played was right when they added the Houndmaster. Been holding off until I could get the full game + DLC, probably gonna do so for PS4.

I'm running through again when dlc drops as well, can't wait for radiant mode.

Spoiler: Talking about the game, Darkest Dungeon, and not this Mafia game:

I found that, with early builds of the game, it felt very very wide but not deep. There were a lot of different classes and options, but that's about as far as it got. Encounters weren't varied enough and I felt that I couldn't play with team compositions too much given the way the mechanics were handled. I also felt that I kind of had to cheese certain mechanics for advantages on stress/healing since getting stress removed/healing done out of combat was hard to come by. It felt like the game was tripping over itself to apply a sense of difficulty solely via annoying restrictions like minimal out-of-combat healing, level caps for dungeons, really high grind for upgrades in town, etc. I know the amount of heirlooms needed had changed at least once while I was playing (along with corpses dropping rather than disappearing) so I crossed my fingers that the final game + DLC would have a bit more depth of content while being a little less restrictive.

Regardless, wouldn't the Crusader have some indication on their role card that they have Holy Water. It would be kind of awkward to hope they just divine the flavor scenario otherwise.

With 13 alive it takes 7 to Investigate.

@MOD: Are the effects of an Investigation made public?
Can you give us an idea of how the format of an Investigation will resolve/be handled when it does happen?

Partially.
So as an example, let us suppose that Magua interacts with a

Beast Carcass

Curio.



There would be flavor in-thread for what happens (Magua tastes some of the meat and gets sick!/Magua finds nothing of value/Magua finds valuables!), but any special effect received from the find would be PM'd to Magua privately. So he might taste the meat and get sick, so I would PM him what that entails. If he found an item or a beneficial buff, I would PM him with the results of that privately.

If interacting with a Curio brings a

party-wide

boon/ill, such as messing with this:

, then the full effect would be stated in-thread.

@Varsoon

- I though your vote on us was RVS - if not what about it was sirious that you felt my wagon was countered when wraith hit L1
- what do you think about Wraith?
- what do you think about the votes on wraith case by case?

#Arwen

[Arwen and Aragorn]

And what about people who are against you getting the urn makes wraith wagon bad?

That literally makes no sense

#Arwen

[Human Sequencer]

I'm actually fine with Varsoon taking the curio if we can't get a sader to do it. He looks like he knows what he's doing.

[Wraith]

Curio: Varsoon

[Arwen and Aragorn]

curio : No one

I want you to answer me first

#Arwen

[Human Sequencer]

Wraith, can you supply a read on me?

[Wraith]

curio : No one

I want you to answer me first

#Arwen

I gave you an answer. I don't why you're so hung up on a throw-away comment from the opening sections of the game.

[Wraith]

Wraith, can you supply a read on me?

I don't really have one yet.

[Arwen and Aragorn]

You didn't give me anything

I said what about that post was a joke and I'm waiting for an explanation.

#Arwen

[Human Sequencer]

Why do you want Wraith to explain this moot point from pages ago when he's obvtown?

Arwen is FA, right?

[Wraith]

You didn't give me anything

Cakez suggested Vifam's opening was super townie. Vifam had up to that point made only three posts. So I suggested the dumbest possible reason for townreading Vifam as a joke.

[Arwen and Aragorn]

This is the very beginning of post - opening section of this game where I'm using the things that happened in the opening section of the game to pressure people - make conversations and gather reads.

Why is Wraith obvtown HS? And why shouldn't I ask questions about page 1?

[Varsoon]

I voted for you to push your wagon to 3 votes, which I hoped would make you engage with the game a bit more beyond roleplayish posts and, maybe, even break us out of RVS.
I didn't really like your logic for pushing on Wraith: I don't see what's scummy about self-preservation via pushing the Curio to someone who's asking for it as well as asking about if voting me is a towntell. I kept my vote there if only because your vote 59 felt like a push away from getting the Curio handled ASAP. Yeah, Wraith's early content was weak, but you had more than enough times to abandon ship, especially if you were just putting pressure there for weak content--why hadn't your vote swapped to Alisae for the post you were critical of?

Also, I just haven't really caught anything else that appeals to me for a vote.

As far as the Wraith wagon goes now:
Clumsy's vote and sticking with the wagon feels meandering.
Prism's vote there falls more into my criticism of you--their minimal content so far and resistance to the curio voting bothers me.
Alisae's 'pressure' vote falls short for me--what is Alisae looking to pressure out of Wraith, even? I don't get it. Seems more in line with 'meh, I'll sheep this' going-with-the-flow that happened when Alisae curio voted me.
SirCakez admitted he thinks I'm trying to make fake appeals for towniness while jumping on the later end of a fast growing wagon, but with little reason why that wagon was appealing. Feels like he wants me to get the Curio because I might not be town but then he goes and votes someone else, running contrary to letting us have an informed day with the investigation early and lynch later.

[Varsoon]

VOTE: Prism

[Varsoon]

For the record, I like where you are now on engagement, A&A. I found your early stuff (between the roleplay and 'what joke'?) to be meandering.

So you beleive vifam opening was not towny? or you just beleive SC couldn;t feel they were towny cuase there was nothing towny there?

All Living Players are considered members of the party.

[Varsoon]

Alright, cool. Just making sure I hadn't missed some mechanic where it was, like, people voting for the Curio Investigator or something.

In 59 I said I don't give a fuck about curibo and I think we must focus on real scum hunting - as we can do both at the same time. It seems it has random effects so a null - slight towny will suffice. I really don't like the way in the past 6 pages there are no other scum hunting and everyone are just talking about curio when for choosing curio you have to make reads. That was what I was trying to say there.

I wont abandon a ship like that. Why should I unvote wraith before engaging with them?

So your saying you don't understand why this wagon was formed. why didn't you ask that from the voters?

and again : why their and mine stances on curibo - makes our vote on wraith scummy again?
