Off Topic Mafia VIII - Mafia vs Zombies

That wasn't what tipped me off.
I didn't suspect you at all, or Gerrez.
I suspected Valley and Funky strongly and said as much, patently in cahoots.

To be fair they could have been masons, but them two topped my suspect list.

 

What happens is I'm at work all day, then when I come home I go on for a few hours but everything been decided by then so there's not much to argue & if I dispute anything it looks dodgy as ****.

I do make a few posts though, I think if I was hosting I'd set a limit of 5 posts or something per day, because its almost impossible to get a read on players like Sebb & Mikey who posted nothing throughout the game, from what I saw.

 

I think I had one vote the entire game and they changed it.

 

Swarbs i liked the masons ability to decide the cointoss, it gave them some power at the risk of potentially revealing themselves. Usually masons have no real power except being able to chat about others...

 

Cheers to Swarbs and any others behind the scenes for all their efforts on running the game...2 games played and I won!.. a.500 batting average (not by any skill but purely by not being lynched luck)

Plus a cheers to the...explainer/summeriser . .players (tennis, mito et al) their posts really help in...getting your head round it

Loved afctw game with super duper secret powers and roles. .that was 200° proof head ****. But will defer to the pro players that this one was better balanced and has

Valleys outstanding voting ..erm ...strategy? ...summat to tell the grandkids about

 

I think it is fair to say Lucaaas that it wasn't just one thing and as I said you could have been saved if tennis had said or did one more thing.

That's just the way I went for it.

Same as valley. He did something I did not expect day one and then I was watching more.

I have had 5 games from the sidelines watching knowing who is who to figure out a few items that I look for

 

Can we have the links to the boards please guys?

I won't rest until you are lynched next game

 

I did something I didn't expect on day 2 as well

 

It was Magic, Enricky's never played.

 

Tbf Tobes as accused me having being Mafia on the first day in every game he's played

 

They aren't the same person??

 

Btw, if you're struggling to get people to host the next game, I don't mind doing it.

 

I did think about having the roles floating for Mafia, but figured that might make them too powerful if they survived two or three days with all members. It would mean that they could keep killing and stealing even if the town managed to find some of them.

In the end it made them a bit underpowered, as once Valley and Lucaaas were gone the Mafia couldn't really do anything any more, but that was just bad luck (and bad voting by Valley!)

 

Yeah, promising no hidden actions did restrict the game a bit much.

It would have been better for longevity if the Mafia and other groups gained some new actions when they lost team members or as the game developed. But then I wanted to avoid a situation like the last game where everyone assumed the Mafia was dead and they jumped up on the last day with two kills and won.

Maybe a balance between the two would be best for future games?

 

Final summary coming up!

PM by Tobes on Day 2, after his infection:

"Swarbs please let the SZ know that if he looks back to around 8 pm last night, it's apprarent that 2 players were trying to extend the lynch group to 4. They went on astro first - which added to his own vote for himself put him in the frame, and then they tried in vain to get me added to the pot. Gerrez and Valley are as guilty as **** imo."

 

MITO's first PM from Day 1:

"I'm going to start off.

I am going through all the roles and the game set up.

First thign was to take your list of players.

I picked randomly here for a bank kill. I can vote nobody later right?

My random pick believe it or not is gerrez"

He later changed to no kill to save ammo, but then was locked up anyway

@MITO I really wanted to ask if that was genuinely really a random pick, but figured that might give away that Gerrez was the right pick!

 

MITO from day 2:

"Kill valley tomorrow.

Two read s. He said he was at work but he's a teacher and in prior games he never posted like this during day so if he was lying about meeting after work and being at work he could be guilty. Add that to my 4 people who followed the one vote and it means I've a banking action."

"my main suspects today are:

lucaaas due to his posting pattern and hovering around last night, also votes were just following

Valley due to him being on during day and his then voting

Mikey as i feel he's slid by deliberately without contributing

tennis as he's not offering what he would do as town. he's also sliding by

All could have different roles but just wanted to lodge my suspects

I suspect all of course but these are just my little blips right now

Gerrez would be in there but for his vote looked genuine effort to help after bod changed late. he's just a medium suspect so far."

"I am going to change my action:

shoot LUCAAAS"

So for all the chat about luck, MITO did pick up on Lucaaas, Valley and Gerrez, although not sure on Gerrez

 

MITO from day 3:

"I need confirmation please swarbs,

I think tennis is right that lucaaas must be SK. that means he is infected and i need to kill him.

I think the hitman used all bullets tonight so lucaas is not him as he could shoot back.


can you say ok or no comment on each.?


the order is serial killer first then me. does lucaas know i shot at him? does he know he was attmepted hit or if you can't answer that does he know who hit him. the ruels do not say.

The worst case i can see if he gets a 50/50 to kill me before i get to kill him. I could actually have two goes at him with my two bullets

please shoot LUCAAAS again"

This was later changed to zombie hunting, which killed Biscan
