American Gods Mafia - Game over

[Apokalyptika]

Also, does anyone object to me posting backstage QTs? I'd appreciate seeing the scum one, too.

[Equinox]

Mod: If GG is scum and doesn't hammer I hope you will join me to go to mith and report this as an abuse of power that is needless and unnecessary.

This should have been a signal that you were stretching way too far.

[Faraday]

whatever i bought the wine. gg scum.

[Faraday]

or better than retarded game, at the very least.

[Kublai Khan]

Yeah, you guys were stretching to avoid seeing the most obvious thing.. That WC was scum..

Speaking of which..

@WC: Why did you NK LynchMePls?

[Apokalyptika]

Actually, I don't care if anyone objects.

That's Night 5, it contains links to nights 1-4.

[ooba]

No objection to the BS QT I was in ..

Anyway, scum should have probably had this if not for the vote count error - so I'm not terribly upset .. Well played!

[Faraday]

@WC: Why did you NK LynchMePls?

YEP I FUCKED UP.

[Faraday]

eh gonna leave this thread. if anyone has anything they wanna say, feel free to pm. i can see this getting really angry really quick and tbh i'm not in the mood to get fucking shouted at.

[Fate]

Please don't tell me.

You're fuckinh kidding right.

Will I see anything but red if I hit back one page?

[Fate]

Naw, no anger really. ooba has it right. Scum would have probably won anyways if they hadn't messed up the voting thing, so it's hard to be too upset..

Just skimmed the backstage QT...
1) Ythill is a brilliant bastard and Saint/Furc saved town's ass
2) WC was 1-shot BP for flavor reasons? No big red flag on that? Oh, this loss will haunt you for a bit, Faraday..

[Apokalyptika]

Oh, poor Fate...

[Fate]

FARADAY I HAVE NO INTEREST IN PMIJG YOU FARADAY

IF MY RAGE WERE TO BE FOCUSED IN A PM YOU WOULD FUCKING BREAK

BREAK.

WAIT TILL I GET HOME MR.

[Faraday]

cool.

[Apokalyptika]

[brag]KK, I TOTALLY called out WC for too much flavor[/brag]

[Faraday]

IF MY RAGE WERE TO BE FOCUSED IN A PM YOU WOULD FUCKING BREAK
.

your window of opportunity for that just shut at least~

Setup was 12:5:1.

I figured the absolute earliest mafia win was Day 4, the earliest town win was Day 3, and the earliest SK win was Day 7.

Locke Lamora ---------- Mafia Godfather
WrathChild ---------- Mafia Ninja
MagnaofIllusion (rep. Tasky ) ---------- Mafia Roleblocker
Ythill ---------- Mafia Goon
Llamafluff ---------- Mafia Goon

Vezokpiraka ---------- Tracker
Apokalyptika ---------- Watcher
Seacore ---------- (even night) Commuter
A Gaggle of Geese ---------- Vanilla Townie
Fate (rep. Nexus) ---------- Vanilla Townie
LynchMePls (rep. werewolf555) ---------- Vanilla Townie
OhGodMyLife ---------- Vanilla Townie
00iCon (rep. Ghostlin) ---------- Vanilla Townie
ooba (rep. SGRaaize) ---------- Vanilla Townie
Kublai Khan (rep. animorpherv1) ---------- Vanilla Townie
Agar ---------- Vanilla Townie
farside22 ---------- Vanilla Townie

Saint ---------- Serial Killer

You are “Poker Alice (Queen of Sheba)”, Serial Killer.
Each night you may choose someone to kill. If you successfully kill your target, you gain their energy and are protected from any kill attempts towards you that night.

Each night you may PM the mod and choose two of the following additional powers for that night. You can select different powers the next night, etc:
A) Shows up innocent to Cops 50% of the time
B) Any roleblock attempts on them fail 50% of the time
C) Tracker/Watcher/Similar variations get no result 50% of the time

You safe flavor claim is “Poker Alice (Folk hero)”.

You win when you are the only player left alive in the game.

That was the only non-standard role that needs an explanation. I felt for a large game he needed some automatic boosts, but I also liked the idea of seeing choices and not getting to have everything. And yeah he was basically NK immune because only the commuter or scum RB could have prevented him from getting killed. The mafia tried to kill him night 2, and that is why they were unsuccessful.

Seacore was an even-night Commuter, although I admit after hearing prime number Commuter I wished I had used that. I used an odd night commuter previously as a mod, and I like the role, so I went even-night for symmetry.

An earlier draft had unconfirmed masons in the mix, along with a scum mason but I opted for more simplicity, focusing on opposing roles like tracker/watcher with ninja and RB with commuter. The Godfather role / SK's cop immunity was a red herring. I didn't want the mafia and SK to assume all their powers were useful, but they should plan strategies around them anyway. The mafia did well to protect their ninja, he performed all the kills and stayed under the radar.

The game might have gone differently if the Tracker/Watcher combo weren't both dead by night 2. Resurrecting one while the other stayed hidden could have helped catch scum. Especially if the watcher was the one hidden.

[Faraday]

Oh, this loss will haunt you for a bit, Faraday..

you've no idea.

[LimMePls]

I cannot believe that just happened.

[SpyreX]

I was watching this one.

Leaving aside WC being scum and all...

Farside, why in the blue blazes were you needling the one who didn't hammer?

I even started to go "Is she scum??" from that.

Which made no sense.

[Seacore]

Same, I started to think that Faraday had to be scum, who was trying to look 'confused and frantic town'. But that was ignoring all the other town stuff Faraday had done in earlier days.

I'm going to be using this game as a counter case to "too scum to be scum" since WC was pinged D1

[WrathChild]

Haha, I can't believe I pulled that off.

I killed LMP because I thought I was in pretty deep shit and decided to do the one thing no one expected and hoped it would throw us into some deep WIFOM.

I can't believe that from Day 1 I was a top lynch candidate and managed to pull of a three-way lylo with two confirmed town. Best Scum win ever.

[DTMaster]

Oh hai. Another case of town overthinking things. :V. I was loosely reading this game because I just finished reading the book on Tuesday. I'm sad that emotions ran high and scum won via WIFOM. I congrats WC on the gamble and it worked :3.

[LlamaFluff]

Streak intact!

lol this game really, more for it later.
