Kumba not voting for one day, that'd be one thing. But he didn't vote for TWO days. Scum. Absolute scum

Looking at kumba and Hal's history, Hal's only vote has been for DB. He hasn't posted much at all. He's probably scum. Prove you're town Kumba, shoot his rear end

Kumba voted Hal, they're not on the same side. One is of them is almost certainly scum. If you're town and you know it Kumba, pull the trigger

No idea, which is why I'm hoping Al Snow [is town-aligned] and will let us know what it means.

Head could have done anything from blocking the night attack to distorting my scan result (or, for all I know, both)

I don't.

but at least if he comes forward and offers an explanation of his abilities and/or what head does we have something to work with, and maybe we can judge if he's town aligned or not.

I probably made myself unclear with those brackets. I'm hoping 1) that Al Snow is town aligned AND 2) that, thus, Al Snow will have motive to explain his role honestly and we can figure out what Head does.

Did you pass it to me intentionally or does it move randomly?

Are you allowed to publicly discuss that or not?

A player can reveal whatever they want about their role so long as it's not prohibited by the mod, but WHY is the question. It feels like your fishing here a little. Also I don't think you're supposed to edit your posts.

Welcome once again to Raw is War! We are live here in the packed Game Room subforum and boy do we have a slobberknocker tonight for the viewers at home. We're going to be playing a game of Mafia with thirteen, count'em thirteen of your favourite WWF Superstars and that's not all is it King?

No it's not JR, your WWF Champion, Stone Cold Steve Austin is set to join us later tonight and with the foul mood that man has been in, there's no telling what he's going to do.

I cannot wait to see that King and... oh we're being interrupted by the Chairman of the Board, Vincent Kennedy McMahon!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JAI67yP1K0

Cut my music, let's get straight down to business and discuss our main event and the kind of Mafia game I want to see played:

This is a Mafia game for 13 people where each person will be assigned a famous WWF Attitude Era Superstar.

The key mechanic in this game is Momentum. Momentum is a currency that is spent in order to activate abilities. Every Superstar has an ability and a method of building momentum that will be sent to them as part of their role PM. The amount of momentum a Superstar can generate and the amount required for their ability will vary significantly from Superstar to Superstar.

Momentum is not gained instantly and instead will be distributed to players at the beginning of each night. In practice this means that nights and the flip might take a little longer to do while momentum gains are calculated.

Every character has a momentum cap. If you ever hold more momentum than your cap, momentum above the cap is lost.

Beyond this mechanic, the game is a (relatively) standard game of Mafia.

Days will be 48-72 hours in length. Nights will be 24 hours. These are flexible based on when I want to be up and doing things.

Other general mafia rules (that have broadly been stolen from Somberbrero):

1. Don't be poo poo to each other. This is game and getting a rise out of people is fine, but no slurs or other personal poo poo.
2. If you post fewer than ten times across a day that comes within 12 hours of finishing, I will grant a free vig to be used by the player that posts the most targetted at you.
3. Don't edit your posts.
4. Don't talk after you're dead. I'll send you a PM to an Obs doc if you want to chat.
5. Don't post after the hammer.
6. Flavour is as accurate as I can make it in this game. Feel free to chase arguments around that but be aware that I'm not perfect.
7. No replacements after D2.
8. Don't directly quote any communication from me, including your role pm. If you have OOT communication with another player, the rule still applies.
9. Don't fake day actions.
10. Be aware that this is the first time a 13 person main event mafia game has happened and that I'm probably going to screw up some things because I'm a moron doing this for the first time.

The game will start when Signups are full. (And I feel like it because I'm Vincent Kennedy McMahon damnit!)

Hrmmmmm I sold some protection to the guy who did the vig yesterday and ended up taking a bullet so I think he was the kill target (or at least one of them)

That being said it does seem like one of those two is probably a badguy

We have the luxury of being ahead enough now that i am comfortable, after the claims, of giving jenkies the cut today.

I have confidence he will be the last scum. and if he is not, then it pretty much has to be sal.

So you have Perky corroborating my assertion I gave him momentum previously and proof I visited him in the night when I used my ability to save his life. Sounds like the doctor role, no?

Yes that's true. I'm Al Snow. The more people who have had the more momentum I get. At the risk of being too honest if everyone alive has head I win. I'm not town or mafia.
