Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Val - seriously. RE has already explained that the anti-town team in this round, playing the role usually known as "mafia", have been named a cult. The "cult" moniker is flavour, it is not a description of game mechanics this round.

I'm struggling to keep up as it is without having to go over imaginary ground. :alright:
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Rlyeh, Care to explain? Was Autti part of the Mafia or not? Is the Mafia the same as the "Cult"?
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

You can't be acting this way if you truly didn't know, your incessant denial means you feel you screwed and you feel the need to make it absolutely clear you didn't know the distinction.

Hang this fella, this should've been so much easier today..
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Copied and pasted from the sign up thread

Sign up for mafia here, this game will be Role Madness which means:

* Everyone (or almost everyone ;))* has a power role. the definition of power role is not vanillia townie. This game is going to also try and not include "French Vanillia" quasi power roles (Such as Masons with no other power)

* As such there will be custom roles, no I'm not gonna tell you what they are.

* Okay I'll tell you one as it's important and the centeral theme. The aim of the game is to Kill the Dark one, an evil spirit thats going to end the world, he works through his sect or cult, and he is a dreaming god (http://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Dreaming_God) Because I like the role and have never got to use it. Anyway the BM if I didn't tell you part is this: If he dies, he flips as a random cultists role then possess that player, living on. So basically you still have to Nix all the mafia, and taking him out will only remove a random mafia role and switch control of his powers. This is subject to change let me know your thoughts on this

EDIT: Revision: As per CGs suggestion, the dreams are a factional abilility and a prioirty will occur

* The game's theme is generic fantasy: Knights, Wizards, Paladins and stuff

* Even though the mafia is called a Cult, they are not a cult, they don't try to recruit everyone, cults (mechanic) is silly)


Thats just as it is on the page, no edit, no changes no nothing Val.

Vote: Valhauros

Best bet so far. Yes, the mafia is called "the cult" for flavour reasons. I don't see how this is unclear. And the late vote yesterday nerves me a bit.
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

And this is from the page where you quoted the cult thing,

- Victory Conditions:

Pro-town: You win when all anti-town threats are dead.

Cult: You win when your numbers equal that of the rest town and nothing can prevent you from winning

Speical: See role PM for futher details.

I see no win condition for mafia, this tells me the mafia is the cult. thats just a copy and paste again no changes, just what it says.
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Well, alrighty then; seems my obliviousness (damn you open beta) and Sathoris' particular insistence are making me be seen (is that grammatically correct?) as a potential enemy, but I have nothing to hide, so if anyone has questions, fire at will. If you decide to lynch me, remember to look back for those who vouched for Autti...

Also, I find weird that after Korialstraz was caught in a blatant slip, got questioned about it, and replied with a subtle shrug, everyone moved on like it was nothing...
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

I guess I got nothing to lose by claiming, so I might as well. According to the tenth rule, I can't just paste the contents of the personal message, so I'm underlining the words I have changed (I used www.synonyms.net, in case you want to look for the words):

[Highlight]Thou art the Martyr, what more outstanding drive is there than granting thine life to halt wickedness? Each night you may select a participant. Every other night activity that aims that participant instead will target thee that night.

Aligned with town: Thou will succeed when all aligned against town menaces are deceased.
[/Highlight]
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Sorry Val, that is a very poor "power role" to be given. I'd ask RE for a refund.

Purely from a pragmatic standpoint, I feel the town's risk-vs-gain ratio for lynching you to be acceptable. My vote stays. Them's the breaks. :nod:
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Yeah, it's a very crappy version of doctor... That's why I wanted Goryani to steal it, it sucks.
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

Well, this went on a completely different tract then I was expecting at the beginning of the day. If Val's role claim is true I could see why he would be oh so willing for Gory to take it since I could hardly see, if ever, Val actually using that power (that selfish ***). Haha.

I still find it odd how Sath doesn't follow up with his posts unless he is truely trying to attain a lynch, but everyone else seems to think this is normal and I wouldn't know his playstyle enough to know. There is still a lot of time left in this day phase so I'm going to hold off laying a vote on Val (Even though I know we would all enjoy him hanging from last games results), but for now:

Unvote: Sathoris
 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

I like how Ankeli votes for me without discussing any of the problems with him I laid at his feet. Seems...interesting.

I would not mind voting for Val either

I'd love to get a re-run of these so called problems. I was on a mafia from day 1, have provided the town with information, and you've done... nothing. I might just off you next night instead of korialstraz to be on the safe side. :)



 
Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread

I'm back! Got some good 30 hours of beta time, and did almost everything I deemed fun. Got all the achievements, all characters to lvl 13, lvled blacksmith to highest rank possible, did some crafting and managed to finnish a naked run (except for starting weapon) from start to finnish. :D


Ok so back to the game. I'm almost inclined to believe Val's claim of not knowing there wasn't a cult. I was uncertain at some point myself, but refrained from asking, since I had a gut feeling people would be all over it. Figured out eventually that the mentioning of cult was flavour for this game. The late vote I can actually understand, as I tend to have lots of tabs open myself, and sometimes forget to preview before finnishing off a post.

However one thing I cannot fathom is (if I understood your role claim correctly), is why didn't just not say anything about your role, and instead just use your ability on Gory to force him into targeting you? That would make you the role thief, and at a position to pick whichever target you wanted and hope for a better role correct?

Vote: Valhauros
