Re: Mafia: The Gangland Massacre
I'm inclined to trust Orphan for the moment. Sure, he hasn't made many posts compared to some, but what he has said has generally been well reasoned and not filler material. Also, if he's having trouble connecting then accusing him based on that is like accusing Aman of not contributing on Day 1. I'll wait until he posts again before judging.
But I have an honorable mention for Noleclub and Sitro are somewhat suspicious as well for being vote 1 & 2 on Serdash (but both unvoted and moved to Soy & Noleclub ended up flopping again back to Serdash in the end)
I'm going to have to call hax on this. How have you managed to read the votes I send via PM to Ray? (
You didn't read anything else, did you? :hide
On the matter of voting for Serdash- looking in hindesight and going 'what the hell' on that is fine but when you look at dash's posts you can clearly see the reasoning for voting him off...the princess reference was lost on me and looked like silly 'ha-ha' cover for the lack of info in his posts, furthermore he didn't even make an effort to defend himself when he got a couple of votes but just ignored the matter.
Oh it was a good cover. I figured it was just what he'd say to me regardless of role and largely ignored it. Now I'm kicking myself wondering if I could or should have spotted it.
I am sure there is a blocking role in this game, whether it be pro-town or pro-mafia. That could have been used sucessfully last night and thus no imprisonment. I am highly doubtful that this is the case, but I am sure that a blocking role does exist.
Otherwise a good post, but... There's two cases where a player is removed from the town, and in the words of the umpire "cannot interact with the game whatsoever until the start of the next day", and you're still not sure if there's a roleblocker in the game or not?
Can you check if there's any anti-town factions for me?
As to my part in lynching Serdash. I already said yesterday that I wouldn't want to vote Soylentred, and serdash was the other person with a lot of votes, so... Too bad I couldn't see his hints. Anyways, I'm now even more convinced that Soylentred is town, since the imprisonment surely wasn't an accident, Soyl claimed to have a role and the mafia probably wanted to stop her from using it.
That brings me to the FBI guy. Nothing more than saying that the role is definitely restricted to one imprisonment per player, since it would really suck to be imprisoned for several days during the game. The reason it wasn't used today is probably because the mafia want to keep those options open for the rest of the game. One interesting fact about the imprisoned players is that they tend to get killed sooner or later, since they cannot be imprisoned again, and being imprisoned reduces one's chance to be mafia.
1) If the mafia wanted to stop Soylentred from using her "role", and they know she isn't mafia, then they could just kill her. At least as effective, no?
2) Regarding the second paragraph, I'm not sure how the imprisonment of a player at this stage affects someone's chances to be mafia. Some posts above there was an argument that the mafia could prefer imprisoning a buddy to townie at this stage. Also, you shouldn't know that the role is restricted in that way. It'd suck to be killed on Night 1 and never say a word in the game. Still happens. End of the day this isn't an especially balanced game anyway, but it is a lot of fun.
If we have a mafia notewriter it is very possible he just didn't get the note to Ray on time.
Or they weren't able to. It was the night 3 kill that was lonely.
Though to be fair the assumption of a note writer is a greater one to make than assuming an alignment for the roleblocker.
