M53: Mafia 1 Redux

[Jamiet99uk]

Netphys, you are being weird.
Why is this?

[xorxes]

Austria is usually the first power to be eliminated.

I didn't know this was a low level gunboat game

Have you never played as Austria against bots?

I would like to try an experiment. I am asking everyone to please choose 5 players, besides themselves, at random. The results should be truly random, for instance I used an online random number generator. Here are the results of my random selection:

brainbomb
e.m.c^42
Foxcastle
KalelChas
rdrivera2005

There. What is the purpose of this experiment?

It will be spoiled if he reveals too soon.

You are not good at reading specifications....

I'm pretty sure this does somewhat fulfil the criteria

[e.m.c^42]

This have anything to do with your mafia bot?

Karrot, Bungo, flash, xorx, bozo

No, that is still in the developmental stage. Thanks for the response.

Ooo I think I know what he's thinking here.

Bozo is a smart cookie

Bozo is a schnack

yummy Ozzy

Netphys, you are being weird.
Why is this?

Nephththypthtpthphps listens to the river spirits and channels their voice

Perhaps I just need to get out more but I generally prefer to play games with other people

[xorxes]

But you did read the rules though?

Didn't I just tell you that? So what was the addition that you liked?

I'm pleased you read the rules. It's a good idea before each game, lets you know how to play.

I see you are avoiding the question.

Jam donut is getting nervous. He's caught already

[e.m.c^42]

Is roleplay a reference to the original flavour? Can't tell, wasn't around back then

How would you feel if I told you this was literally the purpose?

[e.m.c^42]

Neph feels like he's rp'ing bb

[e.m.c^42]

Karrot is decidedly less shy, we shall see if that is due to getting more familiar to playing/the crowd or something else

[xorxes]

I wasn't either, but I don't think so.

It did cross my mind. I don't see the point though. I didn't learn anything I didn't already know.

Please exclude yourself.

[xorxes]

Furthermore, to simplify the protocol and correspondence, please feel free to use 'Archeduke', 'emperor', 'emperor-king', 'Austria', 'Austria-Hungary' or any similar designation to adress us, our country or our peoples, if you would be so kind.

Salutations great emperor. This lowly peasant isn’t worthy to address you. So I shan’t again without your specific indulgence.

Probably exclude Bun-Kak as well.

According to the "Mafia Scoresheet", no one playing this game was in M1.

Sorry for the delay guys... lots happened. Without further ado:

Official Mafia 53 Opening Post:
On February 17, 2020, a mysterious letter is dropped in the mail-slot at WebDip HQ (located in scenic jmo's mom's basement). JMO is perplexed - no one outside of the internet should know he exists, let alone his undisclosed location. Curious, he opens the letter, and reads.

Dear JMO,

These past few years, I have become quite disappointed with the Mafia community, and I have come up with a solution. I feel that what my successors require is a blast from the past, something to bring us back to our roots. Please insert the enclosed floppy disc into the WebDip servers under your bed. In return, I will let you in on the biggest secret in WebDip history...

The Truth About the Congo!

Your Friend & Colleague,
President Eden

President Eden?!? He hadn't been seen in years! JMO's curiosity about the Congo outweighed his cautiousness, and he inserted the floppy into the drive, realizing a second too late that no one knows shit about the Congo.

Around the world, 18 WebDip members sit in darkness, staring at the projecting light of their screens. They impatiently await the next cultist multi-mafia role madness triple-third-party mini-mafia game to start. Just as 6:00 rolls around, however, they all feel dizzy as the reality around them warps and they find themselves sucked inside the minds of WebDip members past.

The year is 2014. Inside of a simulation running on the WebDip servers, President Eden kicks off...

Mafia 1... REDUX
