MAFIA 52: You Can't Take The Sky From Me [HIDDEN]

[Temasek22]

turns out I do not have time to devote to this game after all. We planned a last minute trip for the coming weeks so ill replace out.

Sorry to hear, man. Hope you get a good replacement if you're town :p

Let me put it this way, how surprised would you be if the actual captain is letting xorxes hang himself, and is planning on having a reveal closer to EOD? I wouldn't say I'm expecting it, but it's definitely 10% in my mind (about the odds of coming back down 2 runs in the 9th inning).

I would not be surprised if the real captain let Xorxes hang, continue to stay hidden and keep his reveal until the reveal is needed for real, which can be in a day or two. Why would the captain out and become a natural NK/recruit target?

Captain isn't a good recruit after being revealed as it will be obvious he was recruited when he lose the double vote. If Xorxes is real captain he is probably counting on this and on protectives.

So are you saying that Xorxes do not want a GM confirmation of his role, so that he may be recruited as Reaver? Doesn't seem really right to me...

No, it's exactly the opposite, I expect him to get a GM confirmation before EON1 so he can't be recruited.

Wait. I phrased that horribly. Sorry to hear that you're subbing out, have a nice trip!

You mean before EoD1, so that the double vote is visible D1. Otherwise he continues to be a recruit target.

You are right. EoN1 is ok, since we also expect the double vote to be visible day 2 unless he has not been recruited N1.

[Temasek22]

I actually have a theory that xorx is town but not captain. Let's see though.

[Temasek22]

He could be pulling a Tom bomb fwiw

[Temasek22]

As usual I'm doubtful whether I could make it to EoD, I will try my best but no guarantees. I'll have a vote in place just in case. ##vote emc for his noise to signal ratio, his Chipotle fanfic is longer than all my posts combined lmao.

@BunnyGo - I don't know you. How much have you played before?

I played F2F for about 4 hours a week for several years about 25 years ago. This is my fourth forum game. It’s been an interesting learning experience. How about you @teacon?

I've played a bunch, mostly here. I took a step back a few years ago for time reasons, but still love the game.


...what allows you to play f2f for that much? School? Wow.

[teacon7]

It was the roaches that first drew her attention to it. Great brown bugs where there shouldn’t be anything for them to eat. Gorram Jayne and his gorram snacks. If she didn’t clean out whatever they were eating, the insects could get into the wiring and short out something critical.

“I am not his ruttin maid!” Kaylee swore as she followed them into an isolated service compartment - and stopped, her eyes wide. Half a dozen knifes. A gobbet of flesh, and a length of skin that some poor sod had to be missing. A pool of blood, still fresh. It all added up to one thing, and she bolted from the compartment headed for the Bridge.

“Mal? Mal?! I think we’ve got Reavers aboard!”

##CallGM: what does dis mean?

First level Reaver press violation.

(On mobile so this will be short. )

This is big. Not just that there was a press violation, but that it's a first level. Are there categories of press they have to meet? Or it's a graduated warning system for them, and r¹ missed the first checkmark?

Note also when kitsune posted. A respectable distance after 24 hours in. Are there differences in player press between the first 24 hrs and the next 1.5 hr?


Maybe it was just vecna not posting? I though he got piloted.

[teacon7]

@flavius.... Why are you worried about the Bounty Hunter?

[teacon7]

More to the point, Flav, why do you need to find the BH right now?

Sorry to hear that Vecna. Merry 8th day of Christmas and Happy New Year

Nice group of friends when I was younger. Would hang out most Saturdays for about 8 hours. For a while mafia was a regular event.

Can everyone please adopt this notation for reavers? Big improvement.

Also yes. This is important but hard to code break. EMC mentioned a ! quota. Others may not have posted.

Could be. But he has my vote for now. Will move to worcej, EMC, or a new scumlean if he gets cleared.

Agreed, and can I get someone to confirm my concept. It <hard> claiming Captain doesn't protect you from Reavers because after you turn you could claim being roleblocked. I looked at the Captain write up and it doesn't clarify.

(my first)
##Call GM
Can the +2 the Captain gets after reveal be role-blocked by people like the Companion?

I think the Reaver thing might get worse/'harder' as the game goes on... like every for every day the game has gone on you have to include that many characters in your posts (!@#$%^&*().... or something like that.
