Mafia 41 - Sid Meiers Civilizaton Mafia - Official Game Thread

[damo666]

Good evening, Fellow Townies! What a cultural festival this game is set to be!

Some cultures believe a long life brings wisdom. I've been playing this game for quite a long time now, and if there's one kernel of wisdom I've learned, is that it's no good losing your cool. I've been known as a drama-kween but these days I'm calmer and happier. With so many roles and powers at play this game will be interesting (and a bit of a minefield for some!) but let this episode of webDip mafia be known universally as "the Friendly Game" because of its emphasis on goodwill and mutual respect.

I have been looking forward to this game and I have studied the various roles in detail. I am afraid that having done this, I have many, many questions.

Clues in here right?

@Damo:

I would need to claim the specific role in order to have any likelihood of being believed, since several of you idiots apparently still think I'm scum or SK.

[damo666]

So you are a Commonwealth country?

[damo666]

Jamie is England. May as well claim it now.

[Jamiet99uk]

Sigh. Very well. Since Damo has the subtlety of a brick and the tactfulness of an atomic bomb, and was apparently unable to discuss whether I should claim, as I politely asked, and instead just decided to dive in and fish out my role...

Yes. I am Queen Elizabeth of England. I hardclaim Role Cop.

My breadcrumbs are in that post. The first sentence, and other key phrases, are taken from the words spoken by the actual Queen Elizabeth II in her most recent Christmas Message, which was broadcast on 25th December 2018.

If Foxcastle is the Doctor, I call on him to protect me tonight so I can get a scan off.

[Foxcastle]

I have to go pick up friends from the airport because of a snowstorm and then take them to the suburbs. I will likely be back before EOD, but in case I'm not, I've entered a preliminary order to save myself, in case the SK idea is still a thing (not that I expect it is, not that I think it should be).

I should also be able to follow the thread on mobile, but may not be able to participate much. If I need to change my order, I should be able to do that.

If Jamiet wants to try to convince me that he's town and needs to be saved... well, I don't really want to save Jamiet, because I am more interested to see him flip and because I haven't really enjoyed his belligerence in this game. But if he can townclear himself, fine.

CrimsonFox is also at risk as mostly townclear.

Who else should be considered?

[damo666]

Sorry Jamie but you made it just too obvious. I believe you and apols for previous attacks.

I'm assuming Fox xposted and will save you.

Wait, this is only N3! So you have exposed yourself before getting a single read??

Roles potentially in play in Medieval Era:

England [Role Cop]
Greece [Oracle]
Germany [Watcher]
Vikings [Strongman]
Polynesia [Commuter]
Askia [Doctor]
Spain [Medium]
Celts [Civ Cop]

(Babylon [Fabricator], Aztecs [Power Thief], and Inca [Universal Backup] presumably don't get to use their powers until after this phase?)

Watcher could be critical here for townclearing or catching scum, so make your choices wisely, Germany.

##CALL GM: if the Vikings are mafia, does their strongman power apply to the NK, or only to gunshots?

Power thief died

The darg quote here largely clears LQ imo

Why? This was early D1. We know Darg was already lying about the mafia QT. Why couldn't he have been bussing too?

[flash2015]

Darg's only other mention of LQ was here on D3.

My previous scumlean was LordQuas... but I am no longer leaning that way.

[flash2015]

A question - is there any smart way to multi-quote that I don't know about? I assume you must reply to each message, copy and paste into a text doc, then create a new message and copy each block of text into the new message? Or is there an easier way?

I hope Foxcastle is really the town doctor. I think it would have been better to stay hidden unless you were a risk of being lynched.

True, but that would be a sort of double decker bus.

I guess if Jamiet not saved tonight Fox is tomorrow's lynch.

I agree. Unfortunately Damo decided to out me.

Yes. But I felt very likely to be killed tonight if I am not saved.

I really don't see you as having been a likely target. CrimsonFox was a more likely target as town clear, and there are a bunch of other people who are more townie than you, and you even said yourself before EOD that a bunch people were scum reading you.

Tad harsh. You essentially outed yourself.
