Newbie Mafia Game Signups | Newcomer Information [New to dGames? Come Here First]

[#HBC | Dark Horse]

^ Wtf lol @ Dark Horse. The redirector is a mafia, why would he ever wanna do that? I can't see a ton of uses for the redirector other than to screw up the watcher. The most useful thing he can do there is try to convince the watcher that the bodyguard might be the redirector. If he's trying to redirect the bodyguard so they can get a successful NK, that's the only thing setting him apart from being just a roleblocker.

The use of redirector in this setup? Redirect the people who target the kill target, and town is powerless against the mafia kill, assuming it doesn't redirect kills. If it does, then there's really no point in having it (Mafia isn't seen visiting anywhere except for the kill, and the other person they redirect, which is actually a bad thing). The problem lies in the fact that watcher is played more like a protective role, rather than an investigative role (As watchers really don't learn much about who they target, compared to stuff like cop/tracker.) Now if this setup was with something else, like a cop/tracker, then it would be pretty interesting.

 

[#HBC | Joker]

That's my point. Why would the redirector EVER redirect anything if that also included his faction nightkill. He's one of the guys who decides who to kill, so why would he wanna change the target? He'd also never be able to redirect the bodyguard's protection/the watcher without just moving the NK as well, meaning that it didn't actually accomplish anything since the other role got to do their job with no interference, just on a different target than anticipated.

Exactly why I'm saying he's useless if he also redirects the nightkill

On another note, if you get caught by the watcher in this setup, you're ****ed

any word on MLP roles today?...

Hold your horses everypony! It will be up today for sure Benjy.

 

[John2k4]

It's sentences like that which make me go: :|

Not really. The watcher just knows you did something, not what it was. Could be the bodyguard. He wouldn't wanna lynch just anyone he catches doing anything. Accidently killing the bodyguard on the off chance he's one of the mafias is just a judgement call, since the watcher would have to claim, and he'd prolly want the bodyguard alive in that case. The roles aren't all terribly powerful, but they balance each other, which is kind of the point.

 

[#HBC | Dark Horse]

Due to the nature of the setup, there is no way a bodyguard could be caught visiting the dead body. Either the bodyguard would be dead, or he wouldn't be visiting the dead body, due to the lack of a roleblocker or non-redirector manipulative role.

Unless redirecting targets would be seen visiting their origional targets, which somewhat works.

ramen are we talking only mafia and townies or will there be a few specials thrown in there? a cop and/or bodyguard would be nice.

[Ori_bro]

Newbie 21 will be very exciting! Can't wait to play haha. Newbie 19 sparked my interest in playing again

 

[Ramen King]

Honestly I just want to make out with your avatars.

 

[Shun Goku Satsu Rake]

Zen if you need a replacement at some point , just pm me and I might be able to help you out.
Even though the flavour isnt really my thing

 

[#HBC | BadWolf]

Ahhh this waiting is killing me. I haven't been in a game in like 3 days. I have nothing to do.

 

[LoliLovesRain]

....I feel your pain BadWolf xD I WANT ZEN TO HURRY UP! i rllllllly want ponymafia T_T

 

[Ramen King]

Ugh been sick all day. Lawli's fault probably. Sorry newbie 20ers. I'm still going to try and get it up before the day ends.

Sorry guys. I feel better today.

 

[LoliLovesRain]

It's not my fault and its pronounced lowlee stop being a dumb bf

 

[#HBC | Joker]

I definately pronounced it as Lawli in my head too. Like Lollipop.

 

[LoliLovesRain]

I know many do xD but I don't spell it lolli if I did I would understand. I spell it loli short for lolita I've had this name since I was 12 because of the book called lolita which is an awesome book

 

[Ramen King]

Don't listen to her.

 

[LoliLovesRain]

Look don't let me tell them about how small you are

 

[mightbebenjamin]

ouch that burns. but can we get on with the game already? you promised roles yesterday and i still dont have one...

 

[LoliLovesRain]

Life happened benjy sadly j and him should be getting to it soon tho I hope :/

 

[#HBC | Joker]

Well I won't be around for the next few hours, so if it starts soon, I will be late to the party.

 

[#HBC | BadWolf]

Benji you finally get an avatar and you get that one? Dude your gf is using that for everything...
You
Obviously
Lack
Originality
YOLO

 

[#HBC | Dark Horse]

I've understood YOLO. Think about it:

 

[mightbebenjamin]

u jelly bro?

also, loli i completely understand. life like to happen when i dont want it to and theres not much you can do about it.

 

[#HBC | J]

I love your avatar Benji. Your girl is such a talented artist!

Plus that is the cutest thing of you two ever.

Yes, we are going to try getting things up and started today so no worries.

 

[#HBC | BadWolf]

No not really... Just patronizing you about your choice of avatar... And lack of uniqueness... It's so sappy I'm surprised you aren't able to make syrup....

 

[mightbebenjamin]

please, the syrup goes with waffle Wednesdays. *sniff*....i miss waffle Wednesdays. besides, thats my favorite picture ever and i dont see it changing any time soon. i think somebody is just mad that all of their MLP pics a little less cute now by comparison.

 

[#HBC | BadWolf]

Nah, ponies still be more awesome. Sorry, but your gf isn't all that cute for me... Although you shouldn't have a problem with this.

 

[LoliLovesRain]

....Benjy's avi reminds me of Gasai Yuno + Yuki

 

[mightbebenjamin]

i looked up a photo of those 2 and u are kinda right loli. minus all the porno and blood and japaneese cosplayers you get on google image search (but hey, thats expected.) actually it was drawn by Homeslice and she gave it to me for out 1 month anniversary.<3 if you ask anybody who knows us, we are that sickeningly-totally-in-love-infinitly-happy-couple-that-everybody-would-hate-if-they-could-find a-reason-to couple.

 

[#HBC | Joker]

Wow. Sooooooo 2mrw then?

I know she drew it. It just reminded me of the manga mirai nikki xD I'm glad my boyfriend and I aren't that couple lol we're the "so when are you getting married?" Couple xD tho I can now say once I finish college but the dates not set xD it took 5yrs for me to say this xD

@other guy who wrote whose name I'm too lazy to remember: Yeh they should just be like wait we shall do it asap bcuz giving themselves a deadline which is what they kind of did by saying it would be available yesterday Is a deadline that they did not make xD

 

[#HBC | BadWolf]

Ah, the thread is just sitting there mocking me with its amazing-ness. I'm just going to sit here and refresh until it unlocks...

 

[#HBC | Joker]

The game seriously hasn't started yet? Good thing I said "**** it" and went about my life instead of planning any time to play this weekend. Still in the dark about when it'll start.

 

[JTB]

because nonstop complaining it will do anything

jesus

 

[Axel]

Yep, what JTB siad! Life happens mate n_n! Not like I was expecting some maniac to shoot up the theater and having my cousin come face to face with death. It's been like what, three days since the last newbie ended? Have some patience brother.

All Roles PMs have been sent out. Please confirm via PM!

 

[#HBC | Joker]

Yea, cuz saying something once is the same as nonstop complaining. It'd be different if he hadn't said it was gonna start like 3 days ago, then never even posted "Hey guys, sorry. I don't know when it'll start." That would have been fine, but whatever. Roles are out now so it's irrelevant.
