The situation is at its most desperate. You all awake to find that



Chaco, Aragorn, town doctor has been killed during the night.

With 3 alive, it takes 2 to lynch. Deadline is August 15th at noon EST.

Walp. I got no report once again. Not that it matters.

vote: adumbrodeus

Macman cannot be mafia unless adum is trolling, and since I highly doubt adum is trolling, my vote is set.

I'll be available for a good portion of tomorrow and the rest of the week to answer any questions!

Dunno when I'll get a chance to post again but here's my answers quick.


adum: why do you think McCloud should have investigated the same person twice. What would that have accomplished?
I didn't say he should have, I said he should have investigated vreal ONCE.


Why do you believe that there is no roleblocker?
Again I never said that, you need to reread, I said that his assertion that there was a roleblocker seems a bit odd considering that there was a much easier possibility given the situation.

I find it likely that there is a roleblocker given mccloud's assertion and I'm chalking it up to scum knowledge.

What other games have you been scum in?
I'll assume you mean "what games have I been scum in?".

I was scum in Square Enix mafia at mafiascum, BIM 2 which just ended, and I guess CT counts but I was a hunter whose target was the mafia recruiter even though I was technically an indie.

Well, I was a bit disappointed it had to end this way, but really, I wasn't sure what to do about adumbrodeus. His computer getting fried happened at the worst possible time, and replacing mafia in lylo isn't something I want to do. Anyway, I'll have a recap of the game, the roles, and mod comments sometime later today/tomorrow.

Here it is, the list of role PM's. The PR's were fixed, but everything else was randomized. (I didn't make Gandalf a PR because he was just too epic to fit into a 9-man setup. :p) Comments on the game to come later.
FrodoPM said:


You are Frodo, the town tracker. As bearer of the one ring, you can use its power to turn invisible and follow someone at night by sending me the command Track: Player. By doing so, you will see who they visit that night.

You are town aligned and win when all the mafia are dead.
AragornPM said:


You are Aragorn, the town doctor. You are quite skilled in the arts of healing, and as you still have some leaves of the athelas you gathered earlier, you can protect someone each night by sending me the command Protect: Player. Doing so will protect them from NK's that night.

You are town aligned and win when all the mafia are dead.
BoromirPM said:


You are Boromir, a Vanilla Townie. Despite being an awesome swordsman in the books who can slay twenty orcs by himself, here you have no powers.

You are town aligned and win when all the mafia are dead.
GimliPM said:


You are Gimli, the Mafia Roleblocker. You have been corrupted by the lure of the ring, and you must claim it for yourself! (Insert "My precioussss" cry here) To assist you in this goal, you have XXXX, Sam, mafia goon as your scumbuddy. You may communicate privately with him at any time, but all conversation logs must be sent to me. Each night, you and your partner may choose to kill someone by sending me the command Kill: Player. (Whoever sends the command will be the one carrying out the kill. Should conflicting commands be sent, your command will take priority.) In addition, every night you may send me the command Roleblock: Player to prevent them from making any night action whatsoever. (If they don't make a night action, they will not be informed of the roleblock.)

You win when you reach equal numbers with the town.

Fakeclaim:

You are Gimli, a Vanilla Townie. Despite being extremely skilled with the axe who in the books slew 42 orcs in one battle, here you have no powers.

You are town aligned and win when all the mafia are dead.
LegolasPM said:


You are Legolas, a Vanilla Townie. Despite being an expert marksman who in the books slew 41 orcs in one battle, here you have no powers.

You are town aligned and win when all the mafia are dead.
SamPM said:

Fakeclaim:

You are Sam, a Vanilla Townie. Despite being... well, you're just a hobbit. Did you really expect some sort of epic powers?

MerryPM said:

PippinPM said:

(Mod note: Pippin is really town gravedigger, but is not informed of this.)


GandalfPM said:


You are Gandalf, a Vanilla Townie. Despite being just pure epicness in the books, here you have no powers. (Yes, it's not fair. Deal with it.)

You are town aligned and win when all the mafia are dead.

Heh. For the record though, night 3 was my fault. I completely forgot to give him his night result. XD

Did anyone see my super secret hidden message to Vrael? I realised a few hours later he was scum and my face just fell ---> D:

Then boom, NK'd...

GG town!

Legalos shoots Gimli right between the eyes like the awesome he is.

Gimli dies.

Frodo jumps up and down.

They then continue their trip to Mordor and cast the ring into its destruction and the two go their separate ways and live happily ever after.

I'm really pissed I lost this, reading this from a neutral prospective it seemed 100x more likely that mcloud was scum, and the roleblocker thing was downright weird (especially since I didn't roleblock till lylo).


Summoner needed to not make an insane scumslip at the first sign of pressure and otherwise be an insanely scummy lurker.


Whatevers, second scum game, I'll get you guys next time (and did for most of you already, mwahahahaha).


Thanks for the props folks, I'll do better next time, macman, care to explain why you thought I was scum?



Also... comp issues screwed me so hard this game.

In endgame you lost all credibility, had your claim been more believable it would've been more troublesome.

Alright, some short critiques...

Macman:
Well, you didn't exactly set the world on fire, but you made the right decision in LYLO, and that's what counts.

Tom:
I knew you were going to lurk when you got the doctor role. I KNEW it. Ah well.

Chaco:
Not bad, not bad at all. Standard town Chaco. Thanks for replacing in.

Overswarm:
Seriously, what was with your case on Chaco? I mean, you refused to summarize your argument, and I couldn't see for the life of me why you thought he was scum.

Adum:
For you the killing blow was really just your computer blowing up. Your played well. Sheesh, if I was in the game, you'd have been at the top of my town list as well. Only one thing I would have done, and that would have been to vote Mccloud in the final day in your one post. I have a feeling Macman voted you more to "get it over with" and end the game than because he was sure you were scum. Nice bus on Summoner, BTW. I'd have pushed him through the cop claim though.

Mccloud:
Hey, you won. Two things though.
1) You really should have hammered Vrael when he claimed cop. Cop and tracker in a 9-man setup (plus Chaco hinting at his own PR)? Not likely.
2) Don't forget your night actions next time. (Although, considering I forgot to give you your result N3, I guess I can't really say that... :psycho:)

Xonar:
:mad:

Swiss:
Totally awesome. Although you were wrong on who was scum, you really helped me out replacing in like that, and you recharged the game quite a bit. :)

Summoner/Vrael:
Not bad. You were a little suspicious, but nobody picked up on it until adum decided to do his epic bussing attack. Cop claim wasn't a bad idea, but unfortunately for you there was a tracker instead. :p

Riddle/kirbyoshi:
What can I say? You're just the type of players that scum has a good shot of mislynching every game. I think your own meta really works against you there. All I can suggest advice wise is to be more active and try to look deeper into things.

Anyways...

Scum OWNED D1 and D2. However, when everyone claimed the whole thing really just fell apart. Vrael was going to get lynched regardless once the gravedigger/tracker turned up, but adum really just got done in because of his computer. Sorry man, maybe next time. I think Macman would have been an easier target than Mccloud, but you had a good shot of winning either contest.

Finally, I'd like to give a pair of shout-outs to Xiivi for being an awesome comod, and thedocisalive for transferring in Adum's night action after Vrael got lynched.

Thanks to all you guys for playing, and I hope to see you in my next setup. :)

yeah when i get power roles i lurk

also, if theres a tracker and a gravedigger, and someone claims cop, its possible that it is a cop+miller+tracker+gravedigger setup, so i didnt think it was poor of mccloud not to hammer immediately. btw mccloud is a vet.

I PM'd you STRAIGHT after I died with the correct scum :ohwell:

Nailed adum on my first read through. He did EXACTLY what I would have done as scum - the OS kill.

Vrael confused me, I needed to survive the night to know if it was him or McCloud who was scum ('cuz of his coppiness ^^)

Its what you would've done, but how did you connect that with a read on me? What made you think I would've?


But, I figured you realized, why do you think I had you nkd?



Also, just as a fun little bit of info, Chaco I knew you were doc d1, I didn't kill you because I needed an excuse for not being nk'd and I figured you'd mainly be protecting me.

Hey Adum, for the record you were right. Chaco DID in fact protect you N1. (Now if you had no-killed... that would have been fun...) I think he protected Mac N2 though.

Theres no use ever to track the same guy that early.

Also, if you knew I was doc you shouldve killed me.

I disagree in that situation, it would be better confirm the claim, hence why I claimed that.



And have people wonder why somebody so obvious-town was surviving? No thanks.
