Mafia - the forum game

only from the start of day 4, and if james hadnt extended the day on the day i got arested i think we would have won

Skaught had the power to make a person a mafia on night 3 and we decided that as we couldnt get rid of challanger we would kill enmos and convert BOH. I think inzomnia fucked up by giving the police power to him.

actually i wanted to use my last power to strip one of you of YOUR powers and subvert it to myself

i even wrote a huge pissed off speach about how i was killed and got so scared of being a target that i abdocated and made myself police office but james wouldnt let me

actually what i should have done is taken challangers imunity away

I'd play in a new game, but I'm not going to run one. Not for a while, anyway.

You wouldn't believe how much time it takes.

If somebody else wants to run one, I'm in as a player.
 
Fun game. I had little advantage being observer first two days, so I decided to play
dumb in first day, then in second day I spilled the beans, taking suspicions upon myself about the knife thing, so it worked well, sorry Parcal ;) well...not ! :D. I got shot in the head and the real Slasher stayed alive, funny thing was that it was Domesticated whom I slightly suspected being a mob lol. So my move was sacrificial, one for the Townfolks !
I thought that was the only way to go, to spill it all and leave the rest to others, and
it all went fine, great job everybody !!!
I also got info that one townsfolk have being forced to mafia side and that was the piece that tied everything together and I guessed right that BOH was now mafia, I never got a change to use that info because of the real life getting in the way :D but luckily Unixgeek had the same info, Unixgeek was the one I suspected being the Slasher.
 
And my vote for best Act: domesticated om, great play, the reason I suspected him
to be the mob was hes slasher role, those post had something shady going on but
I never thought him being the slasher, but now recalling hes post it obvious,
those Gospel songs and those Thelma songs, nice touch. Also that was great move
to take out take Gun Shop owner, timing was perfect. And no innocent victims, great play.
Also Enmos was great, getting the game going, and BOH would have my vote but mafia
got on hes way and I noticed the tone change in hes posts :)
And for the great end play points for Challenger, USS Athens, NietsczcscshhzhscseFan :) and Unixgeek.

ill run one james but ill run the actual thread in B&E so that i can lock and open and edit it.

the only thing is i dont think my story lines would be as good as yours
 
Cool !

May I do a suggestion ?
Perhaps we should keep the time one day lasts (and one night of course) fixed, 24 hours a day and 24 hours a night seems more than enough. If some don't vote tough luck for them right ?

Funny thing is the night we tried to kill the slasher I voted for Dom but I guess everyone else went against me :rolleyes:
 
I really did think Norsefire was mob though....

I investigated 11parcel on the first day, so I knew he was mafia. I was hoping to maybe spot something in his voting.

At first, I was unsure of what I was supposed to do, but I guess it's a disturbing self-realization that I really got into character when I switched to village idiot.

It was a little tough at times keeping up to date with the over 1700 posts...

This was a really nice way to meet a group of people on a forum. I had just joined the day that James was forming this!

Thanks all!
 
in fact... this is the PM that I received when I investigated parcel...

"11parcel, the Town Gossip, is very well connected in this town. And he has had some shady dealings in the past. He has a criminal record and how he earns his income is unclear.

You strongly suspect that 11parcel is Mafia."

My one-word response to James was :

"HE?!?!?!?!?!!?"

I had a lot of fun running the game, though it took me a LOT more time than I thought it was. Keeping track of 16 players and all the various actions that were allowed was a bit of a headache. I ended up creating a spreadsheet to help me remember who had done what, who had voted for who, and so on.

I must say, it was fun to watch people's conversations and reasoning processes about who was mafia and who wasn't.

It seems to me that the town was a bit lucky to win, because they didn't use all the available information, or even look at voting patterns and things until quite late in the game. Still, it must have been difficult not knowing who was leading you down the garden path. The taxi driver was a real asset to the town. I don't know if this was by accident or because domesticated om had a good eye for who was mafia.

On the other hand, domesticated om, as the taxi driver, had his own aim: stay alive to the end and kill everybody else. Unfortunately for him, phoenix2634 decided to take him out when he was killed (even though phoenix2634 didn't know om was responsible at the time).

I wasn't trying to kill mafia. I was originally going to kill people in alphabetical order (which is why I started with Asgard) in the true "serial killer" style. I also wanted to keep him from potentially swapping my role.

The 2nd was originally going to be BetrayerOfhope.......but he was converted into the police officer, so it would be more compelling to keep him alive to prove my innocence if he investigated me......so my second plan was to kill everybody whose names started with a vowel (Asgard, Unixgeek, Enmos, Inzomnia).

I changed plans again because people started to suspect the hobo as the knife killer (at least it started to look like it that day). 11Parcel made the most convincing argument accusing the hobo, so I killed him thinking it would maintain the suspicion........but the mafia killed the Hobo that same night.

The last day, since the first three deaths all happened to be mafia, and the Hobo was dead, I figured the gig was up.
I finally went for the gun shop owner thinking that I'd take as many people as I could with me.
Oddly enough, he ended up killing me, and the mafia killed someone else that day........didn't go as far as I hoped :(.

in alpha order, 11parcel would have come first (unless you chose to spell the eleven out).

A good serial killer would be aware of ascii sort order :D

Actually, he did. I'll tell my story of how this all went down in a new thread, nobody wants to continue a 90 page thread :p.
