TAZ Mafia: Murder on the Rockport Limited mod/dead thread

[xyzzy]

I've never done a combination mod/dead thread before where all the secrets of the setup are laid bare to dead folks -- I usually go for something along the lines of "you can discuss spoilers in the dead thread but I will reveal nothing" -- but I played a game recently with that sort of dead thread and had a good time, so let's try this out.

this thread will be made public when the game ends. if there's something you would prefer someone not read, don't post it here.

the following people have access to the thread:

"halfway there! oh boy!"
"now, which way do I turn it?"
"to the right. and I want you to take both your hands and make 'L's with them. the one that looks like an L is the left hand."
"okay, got it."
"and so turn it the opposite direction to that."
"is that clockwise or counterclockwise?"
"it is clockwise."
"I don't understand clocks; I'm a digital man, myself."
"why did you ask the question between the two if you didn't--"
"I'm still trying to figure it out, so I use learning opportunities like this! okay, I'll put my hands on the crank, and you just turn my hands. how does that sound?"

alignment:

you are aligned with the town.

win condition:

you win when only members of your faction are left alive or nothing can prevent this.

Payment:

while most of the Bureau of Balance's members do what they do because they truly believe in the Bureau's mission, you understand that a proper incentive is crucial to ensuring a job well done. three times during the game, you can target another player at night. during the next day, if that player would receive gold as a result of participating in a lynch or a Fantasy Gachapon item, that player will instead receive twice that much gold or two Fantasy Gachapon items respectively.

"no! it's my fish!"

alignment:

you are aligned with the town.

win condition:

you win when only members of your faction are left alive or nothing can prevent this.

A literal goldfish:

listen, you might be inside a magical spherical fish tank that automatically keeps you fed and cleans up your fish poop, but at the end of the day, a fish is a fish is a fish is a fish. you can't do anything special beyond the standard things every player can do.

Magnus Burnsides

"it's called the Oculus, and it is able to turn anything you create with illusion magic into something real, into something tangible."
"but that sounds great!"
"it really sounds awesome."
"it's really great, unless you use it to conjure an illusory army, or some sort of illusory dragon--"
"still sounds great. very great."
"or an illusory black hole that then destroys the world."
"not seeing a downside."
"but we could've used that for so much good!"
"you cannot use the Grand Relics for good. their power overwhelms and inevitably leads only to evil."
"Griffin, in case you're wondering, this is the scene at which we start to plant the seed of, like, oh, 20 episodes from now when Magnus splinters off and is like 'we can use these for good.' this is the beginning of it."
"oh, I see, I see, I see."
"yeah, this is the endgame, we're setting the scene for the endgame."
"we could have used it for good! the power, as long as it was wielded responsibly!"
"you better keep that shit in check. cause that sort of thinking will consume you, and tear you apart from your friends, and lead you to create a rival Bureau faction."
"you're probably right; this will probably never come up again."

alignment:

you are aligned with the town.

win condition:

you win when only members of your faction are left alive or nothing can prevent this.

Magnus rushes in:

you don't wait to kick off a plan of attack, and as long as you don't hesitate, it usually works sometimes. the first vote you cast each day will instead count as two votes. note that this will increase the number of votes in the game, which might change the number of votes required to achieve a lynch.

if you are one of the players voting for the player who is lynched, you will receive 30 gold. you will receive an additional 220 gold if that player is part of the mafia faction.

Fantasy Gachapon vote:

you can vote for another player to receive an item from the Fantasy Gachapon in the game thread. once the day ends, the player with the most votes (or one of the players with the most votes chosen at random if two or more players are tied) will receive a random item from the Fantasy Gachapon.

spend gold:

each night, you may spend gold you have accrued on items available from the Fantasy Costco. these are outlined in the third post of the game thread.

I'm writing this post before there's a player list, but once I have one of those, this will be the role distribution:

Original Roll String: 1d13

1 13-Sided Dice: (5) = 5

Original Roll String: 1d12

1 12-Sided Dice: (4) = 4

Original Roll String: 1d11

1 11-Sided Dice: (3) = 3

Original Roll String: 1d10

1 10-Sided Dice: (7) = 7

Original Roll String: 1d9

1 9-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

Original Roll String: 1d8

1 8-Sided Dice: (2) = 2

Original Roll String: 1d7

1 7-Sided Dice: (3) = 3

Original Roll String: 1d6

1 6-Sided Dice: (3) = 3

Original Roll String: 1d5

1 5-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

Original Roll String: 1d4

1 4-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

Original Roll String: 1d3

1 3-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

Original Roll String: 1d2

1 2-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

(the first role goes to the player corresponding to the first die roll, then that player is removed from the list, so there's 12 players left; repeat until there's just one player left who gets the last role on the list.)

Doomed mission:

you were sent to retrieve a Grand Relic, but your mission ultimately proved to be a failed one; however, your death will provide all the evidence anyone needs to get to the bottom of this. each night, you may choose another player (this is a non-targeting ability), and whenever you die, whichever player you chose most recently will receive a 1-shot cop ability.

A literal goldfish:

"still sounds great. very great."
"or an illusory black hole that then destroys the world."
"not seeing a downside."
"but we could've used that for so much good!"
"you cannot use the Grand Relics for good. their power overwhelms and inevitably leads only to evil."
"Griffin, in case you're wondering, this is the scene at which we start to plant the seed of, like, oh, 20 episodes from now when Magnus splinters off and is like 'we can use these for good.' this is the beginning of it."
"oh, I see, I see, I see."
"yeah, this is the endgame, we're setting the scene for the endgame."
"we could have used it for good! the power, as long as it was wielded responsibly!"
"you better keep that shit in check. cause that sort of thinking will consume you, and tear you apart from your friends, and lead you to create a rival Bureau faction."
"you're probably right; this will probably never come up again."

win condition:

you win when only members of your faction are left alive or nothing can prevent this.

Magnus rushes in:

you don't wait to kick off a plan of attack, and as long as you don't hesitate, it usually works sometimes. the first vote you cast each day will instead count as two votes. note that this will increase the number of votes in the game, which might change the number of votes required to achieve a lynch.

[xyzzy]

Irrelephant11, SirCakez, Nosferatu, skitter30, RadiantCowbells, Varsoon, and Gammagooey have confirmed. Creature and Porkens have picked theirs up but haven't confirmed yet, which I just can't believe. (I actually can believe it)

[xyzzy]

xRECKONERx, Porkens, and Shoshin have confirmed. also I was mistaken earlier and thought Creature hadn't confirmed but guess what Creature did confirm. neither of the remaining two have picked up their PMs yet though

[schadd_]

nsg mafia :(

[xyzzy]

200 gold
300 gold
1-shot neighborize
1-shot tracker
1-shot jailkeeper
1-shot neapolitan
1-shot vigilante

rolling 1d7 to decide which one Shoshin gets:

Original Roll String: 1d7

1 7-Sided Dice: (5) = 5

and 1d7 to find out what day 2's will be since I gotta let northsidegal know about that:

Original Roll String: 1d7

1 7-Sided Dice: (1) = 1

[xyzzy]

current gold:

northsidegal -- 75
Gammagooey -- 140
Porkens -- 69 (nice)
Kokichi Oma -- 125
Gamma Emerald -- 100
Creature -- 80
Varsoon -- 60
Nosferatu -- 69 (nice)

[Irrelephant11]

wowow nsg's scum game has slightly improved from what I am familiar with
varsoon being town sort of annoys me, because shoshin will probably stay stuck in a tunnel
unfortunate that gamma's real claim looks so towny

[xyzzy]

skitter30 currently has Varsoon as the recipient of the 1-shot cop

[Irrelephant11]

thinking nsg will get caught eventually
I did call all three scum on my wagon! That good good gold was too much to resist
Gammag's hammer was terrible, too
There's some scummy looking town (my last-ditch effort to swing the lynch onto scum was 100% off, oh no) but I think town is still overall set up well to win. I really want them to so I have a random chance at the TAZ comic

I wonder if scum shoot at Shoshin when town doesn't have a doctor....
Also, @xyzzy is Steven the fish the only vt? The neap shot will probably disappoint.

Oooooo interesting choice, skitter
I like it

[Irrelephant11]

I was really excited to be a mason and I'm just now remembering that and how sad it makes me to be dead
also I was pumped to play with shoshin and skitter
shoshin's gonna be so mad I was lynched

[xyzzy]

gamma emerald gives northsidegal unicorn dick

[xyzzy]

varsoon roleblocks northsidegal

[xyzzy]

shoshin uses her neapolitan ability on varsoon

[Irrelephant11]

shoshin's result will be "not vt" right?
sigh

[xyzzy]

yeah ironically shoshin is literally the only one who returns a "yes vt" result

[schadd_]

u can thank me for neapolitan being one of the gachapons! :^)

[Irrelephant11]

thank u

[xyzzy]

mafia kill is northsidegal killing Creature... wow, Varsoon is just, like, gonna catch scum night 1 with a roleblock, huh

[Irrelephant11]

Hooray varsoon! I'm sorry I never bothered to truly sort you!

[xyzzy]

Gammagooey is buying an Unlimited Pasta Pass.

mafia kill: nsg kills Creature
Porkens: no action submitted
Gamma Emerald: nsg unicorn dick
Varsoon: roleblock nsg
Nosferatu: no action submitted
Shoshin: neapolitan Varsoon

---

no one dies
nsg receives unicorn dick from Gamma Emerald
Gammagooey has an Unlimited Pasta Pass.
Shoshin receives "Varsoon is not a vanilla townie."

northsidegal -- 75
Gammagooey -- 40
Porkens -- 69 (nice)
Kokichi Oma -- 125
Gamma Emerald -- 100
Creature -- 80
Varsoon -- 60
Nosferatu -- 69 (nice)

[Irrelephant11]

I'm mean I'm proud of town for outing nsg but it sure is lonely being the only kill so far
wtf Gammagooey why are you buying a pasta pass hahahahaha

[schadd_]

honestly the fact that varsoon isn't a vt fakeclaiming roleblocker may in fact actually be useful

[xyzzy]

the current version of their plan is that he kills someone at the very start of day 2 and then probably gets lynched, so he wants to use up his gold so that if there's another role that steals gold the effect of that is minimized. which, y'know, isn't the worst plan, but the nightkill getting blocked complicates things.......
