Mafia Game: Cheers/Frasier Theme

As promised, I would play the role of a VT until mafia lets me know it's time to flip. I kept my word this game. It's really a shame you guys are killing me off with a vote mechanic meant for inactivity, but I suppose I would have done the same in your shoes.

You've been a distraction to the town.

So yes, it does take more than just a self-claimed scum to ask me to do something for me to do it.

I never asked you to do it. You said yourself you would do it. YOU PERSONALLY VOLUNTEERED. In case you've forgotten:

I'm willing to stake my life that you're bluffing. Even if you're not bluffing, it doesn't matter. I'll gladly sacrifice myself to get you removed from the game.

He's bluffing. And if he's not, then I'll happily take the death in order to remove him from the game.

You spouted all this "lookieme, I'm a VT", yet you couldn't even take the one simple step to secure yourself as a likely VT until bombarded at by another player.

I never asked you to do it. You said you would do it. I'm just making sure you keep your word.

You're playing exactly like a caught scum does when they're about to be lynched.

And you just played like a goon backpedaling 100mph when asked to make good of your claims.

But I'm done with you CG. Bluff, or not a bluff? I guess we'll see in a bit. :)



 
I've been a distraction because you guys keep making me a distraction.

Yup. So, in this scenario, removing the distraction is the best bet IMO. Also, we are all suspicious of your role - you are very good at fakeclaiming. If no one trusts your role, you will continue to be brought up and as such, a major distraction.

Sorry that I've been lurking a lot, not posting much and when I did post I didn't add much to the game.

During the week RL didn't give me much time to fully grasp everything from this game, I wasn't here at the weekend and it took me last night to read everything.

The fact that this is my first online mafia game and that the last time I played this in RL was a long time ago doesn't help.

This week I won't have much time either and next weekend I won't be home also. So this leaves me with a choice:

I either quit or try to help my team by doing the minimum required - and hope that you guys don't mind.


I'll try the second option.

I am pro-town. I'm a bartender. I was a baseball player and coach. I'm friendly and I love the bar.


If I quit it's one less player the scum has to kill. If I continue playing, they have to spend a hit on me. I think that me continue playing is best for the town.


Is omg "lynched" or more votes are needed?


I'll try to participate in the rest but I can't promise much. I don't feel that I have any insight to add to what has been said.

I can add that I'm a bit suspicious of frozzzen because I know him a bit and his posts just felt very different than usual. This can be result of the kind of posting in these games that just is different that the normal, dunno.

Good to finally hear from you. OMG is lynched at the moment w/ 17 votes. Also, if you are town, you alive gives us one more vote to lynch scum with. Although you may not be able to help the town out with analysis, your vote still matters. Lastly, your opinion on frozzen is quite valuable as I think it was Phar who pointed him out earlier as well.

Yes Coach, this much has been pretty obvious. I hope you actually talk to players at night. Would be a shame for that role to wither.

Not wholly true.

YOU started it with your role claim, and how did you think it was gonna pan out sweet pea?? Surely you knew something as dynamic as that would be the focus of all the day talk (as soooo many have mentioned). Pharphis was lynched early on due to his zeal for South Park and pretty much nothing else.

Lynch and Learn....and have a shot of tequila on me :guiness:

Yeah, I realize now that wasn't one of my better ideas. Sorry to the town for being a distraction, and cheers.



 
I disagree with the bolded potion - let the mafia keep guessing if another lynch might fail in the future.

Why would the mafia care that a lynch might fail? It seems far more detrimental to the town. No definitive alignment for whoever was going to be lynched. Mafia get to go on to do another NK. What's the drawback for them?



 
I'm still catching up, guys. Busy weekend, and I really was only around the forums to clean up some spam in D3 General. I'll go over the last few pages.
 
Even if mafia are framers or redirectors or have any other nefarious abilities, they still don't know if I'm town, SK, or neutral. Odds are they would know if ML is insane since odds state that Malevolent is more likely to be mafia than SK. However, thre is still a chance Mal is SK and mafia don't know if ML is insane.

My silence creates issues for them. Issues I'm exploiting by detecting when it occurs. I'm scumhunting by saying nothing. You mad I'm picking off your team?

Besides, I don't want to give the governor/lawyer/whatever any excuse to save me.

A framer would still make town, neutral or SK show as anti-town; you're a strong player and if you're not mafia, they'd want you gone either way. Though it could be as you say, Solar noticed that Mal had gotten an innocent and then knew Martin was insane. I'll have to go look at yesterday again and see if Martin had given his result before Solar's case.

I understand on the no save, doing so wouldn't give any confirmed alignment and wouldn't progress the game.



 
And really, are you trying to brag about doing the minimum amount needed to not get modkilled?
And do what? Talk about hypothetical Goryani busses? OMG? No thank you.

I've been a distraction because you guys keep making me a distraction.
You haven't been a distraction to me.
Yeah, I realize now that wasn't one of my better ideas. Sorry to the town for being a distraction, and cheers.
I thought it was a brilliant idea! The only thing is that your outing got so wrapped up in a couple players minds they couldn't seem to get it out. They couldn't stop thinking about you! Thus, they loved you so much you had to go in their eyes.


Seriously, everybody, you wasted 2 entire game days talking about OMG and how OMG had to go... Really?

I'm convinced those that pushed SO HARD, that's what she said, to get OMG lynched and kept the topic alive are scum. Yes, OMG may be neutral, and yes, OMG did mention to go with the winning team in the end, whether it be Town or Mafia. So what. If it starts to get close, try to vote 2 OMG then. I never got how 75% now and 75% later were so drastically different. I'm not going to discuss it, so don't even bother replying about the numbers again.

These past two days could have been spent using our greater Mafiagame minds (Goryani, CG, Noodle, Gwaihir, Pyro, Ph, Kestegs, just to name a few I can remember off the top of my head) to figuring out why exactly we've lost 4 townspeople in 2 days, instead of, "OMG! OMGWTFBBQPWNED MUST GO!"

Gwaihir, this is why I'm hiding. I'll keep checking the thread, but I'm not participating in these silly discussions, nor going to try and discuss something else and have it buried in 32 pages of the same stuff as yesterday.


 
Meh. I'm off to spend the night with friends now, so this will be my final post in this thread.

Firstly – I love you Thy, I’m sure you have your reasons (and your ban hammer), but I’m not sure what I could really have done here as a survivor. You did give me an awesome ability, but it’s really of no use to me if I can’t really use it to protect myself. I have to survive lynches and NKs for multiple turns, and it really does seem impossible to pull off this role without incredible luck. I’m sure you have your reasons though, and I’ll love to hear them out once the game ends.

In retrospect, it probably wasn’t the best idea to role reveal so early. I honestly was hoping for mercy from the town, but given my history, I guess this was inevitable once I revealed D1. I especially regret the decision to reveal D1 since it turns out Thyiad is probably revealing alignment/role upon death – and lo and behold, the cop dies D1. What I SHOULD have done was wait until D2, when I would have realized the most straightforward investigative role has died, and then I would have just played as a townie and hopefully coasted by. I should have revealed only when it was necessary for me to, and perhaps only when it was in my favour. Oh well.

But I didn’t just go silly-nilly reveal, I actually did think it out quite a bit. I’m pretty damn sure I would have been a prime target for either Vote 1 or Vote 2 either way even if I played normally as a Survivor – i.e someone who seems townie, yet doesn’t interfere enough to warrant a NK. I was unsure of the number of power roles with a NK ability. I was unsure how to approach this role to be honest. I figured a straight role reveal would be easiest, since it would still take A LOT of Vote 2’s to lynch me, and goddangit, it killed me. I honestly think my approach would have been a lot more successful if there was no Vote 2 mechanic implemented.

Lastly, I was debating whether or not to be the one who kills myself in to prevent whoever from dying with me (since I realize it is quite cheesy), but the possibility of someone unvoting me was too tempting. Also, I am quite bitter that I’m going out this way (I tried to help the town, the town still lynched me to improve their odds of winning), so in a way I’m kinda happy that CG is dying with me. :D

Well, that’s it for me. It’s a shame I have to go out this way. GL to the town, GL to the mafia, and GL to the remaining neutrals. No hard feelings either way, I would have done the same in your shoes. ;) My apologies to CG.

And yes, my feelings towards this game remains the same:

Town: Moar.
Mafia/Anti-Town: Solar Ice, frozzzen.
People that SHOULD be investigated: CG, Noodle (you really should consider it Martin, there’s no other way to get a read on these people).


TL;DR: Good bye.
 
Why would the mafia care that a lynch might fail? It seems far more detrimental to the town. No definitive alignment for whoever was going to be lynched. Mafia get to go on to do another NK. What's the drawback for them?

Short answer? Because every time we lynch a townie, that is one less person they have to night kill and one day they're closer to winning.

I would welcome an investigation.
