I apologize for the somewhat short notice here, but I think I have to be asked to be removed from the mini list for the time being... After being out of town for 6 weeks, I found it really difficult to get back into the flow of this site (and the mafia scene in general), but I figured I would still be able to run the mini... Unfortunately, what with some time management issues this year, I really don't think that's going to be possible. Again, I do apologize for the late notice, but hopefully whoever's next up on the list didn't procrastinate like I did and has their setup ready already =P...
Anyway, I may well return to the site sometime, but honestly, it just isn't working for me right now.
Apologies again.
Hey.. if it helps... I dl'd all 3 movies and am watching them this week (already finished the 1st one actually) so now I'm uber-well versed in the setting =).
On the other hand, just in case the game goes up before I actually know for sure what kind of access I'll have over the next month and a half, can I request that in the event that I'm actually selected for the game, I just be swapped with the first person on the replacement list since that's basically a guaranteed spot anyway.
So, what if there had been a tie across all SKs... like if I had targeted nobody like I should have done given my known information that last night... would both have died?
Yay first post! (EDIT: Damn you arimnaes...)
Anyway... I'm going to be at a summer program for 6 weeks starting July 1st and am unaware how much computer access I'm going to have (and if I do have any, whether or not there will be any room for foruming =P)... so anyway, I want to reserve a /red pill until further notice, since I don't think this game will start until I get there anyway...
If I haven't posted by July 4th or so, you can probably assume I won't have access but put me on the replacement list anyway xD... I've been looking forward to this game for months.
Sorry, 2nd edit.. forgot all the other stuff after my rant =P
Experience: Plenty; double digit games for sure, probably close on 20 including WIFOM and mafiascum, plus quite a bit of IRC. I've also been in at least one specialty (magic) and have read large parts of others, including Sin City. Plus 2 modded games (although one hardly counted since it was on WIFOM and lasted about 2 weeks with 7 people).
Familiarity: First 2 movies a long time ago, but I could easily refresh my memory; haven't seen the third.
RP: meh... I'm not gonna lie, not great, but I can try xD.
Participation: high when I'm at home, unsure when I'm away as detailed above.
Oh, and I attempted to replace into PR if that counts for anything... got beaten out to it though by a couple of minutes.
Hmph... I would think somebody gettin CLAIRE as an SK role should be immediately suspicious of the setup, considering she is probably the least likely to kill anybody in the whole show (far moreso than Hurley)... I'm kind of surprised Ged didn't surmise something fishy was going on earlier... I at least had an excuse; Rousseau makes perfect sense as SK xD.
Just for the record, Dagger: I'm pretty sure that your role was stronger than all the SKs put together, although I'll just wait for SG to decide he wants to reveal the whole setup before I go into details.
Ah... so you were lying...
In that case, how many freaking killing roles did the town have??
Also, ged: you do realize that you seriously detrimented the town by not coming out with all your information, you know, maybe such as the fact that I wasn't cleared by the night 2 results? Unless there was more to your role that we don't know about... was there?
EDIT: Nvm..... I got it now (Thanks to a pm from SG that is)... Actually I'm just gonna wait till tomorrow before I post again now.
Eh... I can wait 'till tomorrow I guess... although I kind of just gave away my role xD... I'm most interested in what the hell happened night 2 I think it was when I was rb'd (btw, I really didn't get a message for those curious).
I have no idea
I was kind of screwed for a win though w/ an essentially unlynchable self-protecting doc though.........
Honestly, even I have to know: WTF happened the night Treigit RB'd me... did Cyan just like, absent-mindedly trip over a tree root and hit his head or something?
EDIT: (The tree root had a gun I guess)
DOUBLE EDIT: BTW, where did you get Charlie's middle name? I've never seen/heard that on the show.
TRIPLE EDIT: Damn, now that I think about it, I shouldn't have killed Ged last night... then I probably could have gotten a lynch on HE as Ged would have almost certainly gone for him over me... I didn't take into consideration the fact that a self-protecting doc = draw... I thought I had the win. Ah well, I'll learn from my mistake... won't do it again.
Ah well.. impatience is getting the better of me, and since I don't really think that HE's previous targets are all that relevant, I'm just going to go ahead and vote Dagger... hopefully that's game, but if not, we'll get Ged by tomorrow.
OK, at this point, I am so sure that the remaining scum is one of Dagger and Ged (and not HE) that I am, in fact, willing to be the game on it. So, under the working assumption that HE is town and telling the truth:
HE: if Dagger comes up town, protect yourself, and I will use my ability (which I haven't used yet)... we will lynch Ged tomorrow if he hasn't blown himself up on me. Hopefully Dagger will come up scum though so we don't have to worry about it.
Is this OK with you guys? If no objections, I will hammer tomorrow.
I don't have time for a very long post, but I can say that Ged is correct in that Hurley flavorfully is not a likely vig at all... In fact, if SG was looking for a flavorful 1-shot vig, Jin would have made a lot more sense than Hurley, but honestly, in LyLo, making a lynch based on flavor is too dangerous and gaming the mod.
Anyway, hopefully I'll have time for more insight later.
EBWODP: I just had a bit of an epiphany regarding HE in that even though flavorfully he may be the least likely scum, clearing him based on that is dangerous and gaming the mod. Again, true, he's an un-counterclaimed doc, but with 2 hiders, plus my role, and what seems to be a complete absence of a cop (thus decreasing the necessity for a doc), I could easily believe that there is no doc in this game. I definitely admit that Ged is by far more likely to be the remaining scum (SK or mafioso as it may be) but the case is perhaps not as clear cut as I may have thought.
Dagger brings up good points, but honestly, at this point, we're waiting on HE, and I don't think much more discussion can occur until he has posted.
If HE did protect Dagger, then first I'd really like to know the reasoning behind it, because it is a very strange choice, but regardless, that pretty much leaves Ged as SK by process of elimination.
If HE did not protect Dagger, as I believe is more likely to be the case, then something else strange is going on and we should probably be a little more careful. In this scenario, however, Ged still seems to be SK by default, unless we can determine why Dagger did not die last night, which may or may not change circumstance.
Huh... well that's odd... I guess we need to know who was protected first, but if MJM was telling the truth, which it seems he was, why did Dagger not die? Dagger seems like a very odd choice of a protection target though, so I can't imagine what HE's reasoning could have been if he actually did protect Dagger.
If HE didn't protect, the only possibilities I can see are a redirector, which seems highly unlikely as we've already mass claimed and a mafioso would be better off using his own night kill, and that Dagger is NK-immune (and possibly an SK), which seems far more likely. Of course, that doesn't mean these are the only scenarios, but I can't come up with any others right now.
Anyway, I may well return to the site sometime, but honestly, it just isn't working for me right now.
