Re: The Don S. Davis memorial Stargate mafia game.
The game specifically mentions 3 separate factions: Goa'uld, Lucien Alliance, and Wraith. Many people have expressed opinions of only two mafia groups.
Even with this many players, there is hardly room for more than two enemy factions. To me, three enemies seems within the realm of possibility, assuming one of them is a recruiting cult and does not kill. Three or more enemy factions that can kill during the night would be too many.
Currently, I don't think the Lucian Alliance is an enemy faction in this game. I believe they were only mentioned as an introduction, the way Zarniwoop is mentioned to have died after the battle seems to indicate this.
If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say the Goa'uld system lords are the most likely mafia. In the wiki, the Wraith sound more solitary, like a serial killer. If there turns out to be other villains around, I'll have to assume some of them were grouped together into a single mafia, despite them having little or nothing to do with each other.
Are you implying that Feysal's idea is so threatening to the mafia elements that they would do what they did to Falcon to Feysal?
I think he mixed up our names. It's happened before: Loz once confused me and Falcon in my first game, in this game boogyman has confused Flip and Falcon, Thyiad has confused me and Falcon... There does seem to be an awful lot of names being confused, considering all our names have in common is that they start with an F.
Day one is a guessing game. You can't spot scum on day one - anyone who says they can is a liar. It's all conjecture and feelings and nothing more than that. At least be honest enough to admit that.
Well, as Falcon already said, he has spotted mafia on day one. I for one admit that he's better at reading people than I am, not that we'd have any past experience we could use to read you. Of course the evidence is not going to be very strong on day one, but it is possible to find anti-towns based on the feelings and conjecture. Though it takes luck, too.
Leopold - I'm direct that's all my posts were. Additionally I have no interest in your underwear; post it in OT, I'm sure Dredd will be thrilled.
Leo being Leo, I think we'd all be concerned if there was no off-topic in her posts. There's always going to be some degree of unimportant or irrelevant stuff in mafia posts, we just have to deal with it.
We're all thinking we can't win already; why aren't we focusing on the potential power roles and how they can HELP?
I don't think focusing on power roles is going to do us any good, particularly not guessing who might have them. They certainly do what they can to help anyway, and they're better off protected by their anonymity.
@Feysal (111)- and I'm still not convinced that Zarni was killed by a Wraith weapon. Those weapons stun, they don't kill. If they kill, they can't feed. So until TC confirms that "Wraith Plasma Weapon" was a typo, I'm going to take it that the weapon may have Wraith tech base but was the SGC-created Plasma weapons. So we could have a Wraith ally and a SGC enemy.
Well, there have been typos in the story posts (G
ua'uld, Luci
en Alliance). The plasma weapon could be a mistake. We could have a Wraith who kills with a weapon if he is unable to feed from his target, who knows? However, the idea that the Wraith ally would be framed sounds a little far-fetched. That would mean the enemy had to know there was a Wraith ally.
Feysal you say Falcon can ask you if you're mafia and you'll answer truthfully. But you don't actually answer that question.
Aww, do I have to? I thought the implication was clear. Besides, does anyone ever claim to be anything but pro-town?
114 - very handy post count, cheers Feysal. No offence, but I'm ignoring your reads. I do that myself.
You do that. I am sharing my thoughts, both to sort them out and to leave a record of them should I be killed.
Feysal I'm not sure why you think most town allies are human. That's not the case in the series. Teal'c isn't human and neither are the Nox, the Asgard etc.
That idea was based on the majority of the main cast being humans. Sure there are friendly aliens and unfriendly humans, but on the whole, humans are the heroes, the protagonists in the series. I barely know what the Nox and the Asgard are. We could have two or three friendly aliens on our side, but I still think it more than likely that most of the town players are human.
Invalid vote, I'm afraid. Should be

I'm not really sure who to vote right now. Both Uraj and Laarz are defending themselves. When Uraj was caught last game, he pretty much disappeared. And in his first game as DEA agent, he didn't post all that much either.
