Oh the thing about me dodging my role PM was true by the way. It was eventually forced upon me because scum kept asking hurt why I wasn't posting in the doc.

I didn't really care in this particular game even though I thought you were serious about it, but that is a pretty unfair way to play this game in general and you even ended up being scum.

I'm actually cool with people. I just have trouble keeping the game and personal feelings separate, but with some distance, things get better. It's one of the reasons I shouldn't play Mafia, though.

Interesting. I was kind of screwing around because I figured this would be the game where I could get away with it. Could you elaborate on what you think is unfair?

Not reading your role PM is unfair because it lets you post with a town mindset, regardless of alignment. It defeats the purpose of the entire concept of Mafia as a game.

I'm on Meepo in the all-hero challenge and have gotten totally dumped on twice. In my second try there was a Lich on the other team who literally would save a chain frost for as soon as I poofed in and killed me with it like 6-7 times

For reference, based on an ecco role:

priest- blesses three people per night. 33% doc that night, % unknown to priest

monster - looks 5 people per night. untrackable and unblockable



they find each other thru night actions


priest - blesses three people per night. blessed are made more susceptible to being killed/turned cult by monster. can stack blessings on cultist to give them doc

monster - 1shot bp. can attack player for x/x/x chance of kill/turn/nothing. once player has been blessed has 70/20/10. once player turns can attempt +1 kill per night with decreased odds

Way to go, Hal!

Sadly I never really got into this game because I spent so long waiting around to find out what my actual role was and then as soon as I got it I died. I was in that mason doc for about 3 hours :(

I told you guys PMach was scum though :henget:

capps you were pretty much correct. then again, i'm not sure how proud you should be for calling out the literally first scum post ever made by first-time scum. then again it gave me a bit of a paranoid petrified rush so that was fun.

also Rarity you were absolutely dead wrong. so were cannonballs and pmom. i was in fact town when you guys were going after me.

Hal that was one hell of a post to wake up to. If I could imagine any way for this game to have ended, in my greatest dreams it would be that.

Thank you guys so much for playing this game. It was dumb, it was huge. We said it would be a trainwreck and that it was. When I get a chance I'll message Taste the actually followable mod doc so you guys can scope flavor and actions and such.

I'm taking a break, too. I like running games more than playing - though playing is still fun - and it's hard to run them when my work year has been so difficult so far (as in I just woke up from twelve hours of sleep because I was so exhausted).

That said, neat game even if I checked out for awhile there! Everyone who's going on Fall break should come back, though.

Questions: Why didn't my banhammer vig kill Asiina? Just what in the hell did my power actually DO (another reason I kinda checked out)?

I love everyone.

Asiina had a one time 50-50 bp. Your banhammer got blocked

As for reality breaking, it helped hal win the game and if pmach had chosen the yellow gem it would have given jefe a 50-50 bp as well so he might have survived Asiinas attack. It gave an action to every non town.

Haha this game, thanks to hurt and taste and everyone for playing - mostly my fellow masons who really made the game for me and literally got me to climb down from some borderline ragequitting moments, it was a certainly an experience, one that has destroyed a few players admittedly! Since Hal was a mason I'm counting this as a win for the definitely not a cult secret murder masonry regardless of anyone else's opinions. I'm not quitting but I'll also not be joining any games at least until the end of the month when I'll have relocated back to the UK.

Meinberg posted:

Also, you guys are mean in those docs. :(

Sorry Meinberg, some of us, mentioning no names (me), got carried away with non-masons being our enemies and was needlessly rude about people a lot in the doc. No malice or offence was intended to anyone - I tend to forget people get to read them afterwards and go way overboard, you're all right with me Meindude and I hope it wasn't too offensive.

The 50/50 BP was the only thing I started with.

The vig and the daycop and the SK were all given to me.

I also was able to give Prop a post restriction on the last day. I said that she would have to post only one word per line, but I guess it didn't go through.

I really wanted somebody to try to vig me and for my bp to activate so I could claim I was telling the truth about my first insane claim.
