Mini 1101 - Suspiciously Average Mafia (Over!)

[Wraith]

Introduction

Welcome to Vanillaton, the most quintessentially average place on the planet, and most definitely not infested with people trying to kill you. No, that body over there is most definitely a Christmas decoration. Now, please excuse me while I make a call.

Joe Public, Hapless “Christmas Decoration,” killed Night 0

Well, it appears we have to find a prankster, because that wasn’t supposed to be put here as per Property Regulation 216a. We take our property regulations very seriously around here, so our friendly neighbors are erecting the gallows.

Rules

1. Votes must be bolded in this format:

Vote: Wraith

2. Days will have a deadline of three weeks. Deadline can be extended under special circumstances
3. Mafia may not daytalk
4. Do not under any circumstances communicate with another player(s) outside the game thread.
5. Please do not quote the role PM
6. Absolutely no invisible, small, or otherwise unreadable text. Spoiler tags are allowed as long as the nature of their contents are clearly labeled.
7. You will be prodded after failing to post in 72 hours. If you require a third prod at any point in the game you will instead be replaced. Inform in-thread of any upcoming V/LA in

bold

8. “Bah” posts are allowed, and should not include any kind of game-related information. However, lynched players may continue to talk during Twlight.
9. Twilight occurs after the hammer and before the lynch scene. You may continue to talk but any new votes/unvotes will not be counted.
10. INSERT COLOR is my color, don’t use it.
11. I modkill at my discretion, with or without warnings depending on the offense. If you think something will test my rules (or patience), ask me first, or don’t do it at all. Modkills will end the day and turn the killed player into a Neutral Survivor.
12. If I make a mistake in some way, point it out via:

@mod: You made a mistake

13. I reserve the right to add to or change the rules at my discretion. There are no loopholes, and I enforce ex post facto.
14.

Blue will be my color in all mod posts after rules. Do not use it.

15. Don't be afraid to have fun. Despite the wording of these rules I am not a ruthless dictator and the vast majority of players are not trolls. Good luck!
-----15a. To be more specific: Please Be Civil
16. On Activity Requirements and Replacements: Players will be prodded upon request or if they go 72 hours without any sort of activity. A player will receive two prods before being force-replaced. Replacements will be recruited via the mini normal queue topic or if a player contacts me via PM and requests to be the first priority for replacing someone.

[Wraith]

Role PMs have been sent out. Please confirm via PM. When all have confirmed, the topic will be unlocked and Day 1 will begin.

[Wraith]

All players have confirmed.

Day One

Deadlines will be defaultly three weeks. Your deadline for Day 1 is therefore is

January 9, 2011

[Wraith]

Said rule is not present because I did not expect the game to instantly collapse into a chaos of personal insults. That and "Please Be Civil" is generally a default rule of etiquette. Nevertheless, the rules will be updated.

That said, I will do a votecount sometime tonight. It is likely votecount updates will occur every two or three days, unless specifically requested or required.

[Wraith]

I have received a question regarding replacements. I noticed I did not have a rule specifically addressing activity/prods and replacement, so the rules have been modified. For the one or more player(s) who have not yet posted in this topic, consider this a pre-prod activity request.

Note: The red means someone is at either L-1 or L-2.

That's a damn lot of code to make it look pretty. Appreciate it.

[Wraith]

I prefer the style of record-keeping that makes it easier on players. It's the style Percy uses in his SA games. Crossed-out names are former votes that have changed. Names will stack with multiple votes and unvotes. This is also easier on me, strangely enough, because it allows me to simply record names chronologically and not worry about going back and backspacing over and over again.

[Wraith]

Pinewolf has responded to his prod, but is apparently having internet problems to come with the holidays.

I'll be laying off prods from now until after New Year's, for obvious reasons. In fact, I personally will have no net access from tomorrow until sometime on Sunday.

Night One

begins now. Due to constraints of the holidays, I'm giving this an extra-long deadline at

January 3, 2011.

However, if I get all actions before then I will start Day Two earlier.

Edit: I can now edit posts while the topic is locked.

[Wraith]

Day Two

You all awaken to find

killed overnight.

Parama

was the

Who could be responsible for this dastardly deed?

[Wraith]

Pinewolf has not posted on this site since December 19. Therefore, he is being replaced.

[Wraith]

havingfitz

replaces Pinewolf effective immediately.

[Wraith]

NOTICE: I am currently undergoing tensions at home that, at best, may result in limited to access for myself for a short time, or at worst, limited to no access for a long time. I may have to find a backup moderator in the case of the latter.

[Wraith]

UPDATE: While it is unlikely I will be unable to check this thread daily, I will still have limited access until Monday, and possibly will be unable to make any votecounts or major updates (such as lynch scenes and night actions).

[Wraith]

What's a HoS please? Will go back over this extremely entertaining exchange later, but not when I'm on my phone. It can't handle all the italics and subtlety.

HoS

or

FoS

mean

"Hand/Finger of Suspicion

UPDATE: Sup, I'm back in business, at least from my laptop (until I get my wireless router - stupid lack of landlines >_>). I will be doing a votecount tomorrow unless one is specifically requested today.

I'm going to put out a massprod after classes today. Meaning this afternoon. And no, I will not be extending the deadline. I take the lack of interest in playing asa message to speed up the game to end.

Mod notes forthcoming, after I update front post shit.

[Wraith]

Dead QT

Scum can post their QT if they want to.

Anyways, here's the setup in a short list:

1 Cop
1 Doctor
1 Vengeful Townie
6 VTs
1 Mafia RB
2 Mafia Goons

While the Vengeful Townie role was directly inspired by (read: ripped off from) Boston Brawl, I in no way believed that the Vengeful would live to endgame LyLo like Prana did and pull a gambit like that. I believed the Vengeful would try to kill himself as early as possible to avoid being nightkilled.

I strongly believed the Mafia would win until Night 5. When they killed the Cop N1 with a lucky shot I was like "game over," even when the town recovered a little by lynching the Mafia RB D2. However, both sides' play dropped somewhat the next few days and nights (Zyrc was definitely the most active scum player, I must admit), and a lurkerkill followed by a lurker lynch were not the best decisions IMO. Havingfitz was the right kill (and IMO should have been the N2 kill) because he was definitely the most obvtownie player in the game, plus he was the Doctor. PranaDevil was the next-most obvtown player, and I have absolutely no clue why the scum let him live to LyLo. I fully expected Prana to be the N5 kill, and my jaw dropped when it was andrew, who (as I noted in the dead QT several times) was by far the most easily manipulated or easily mislynched player. The only explanation I can think of is that Prana suspected Xtoxm somewhat D5 and Xtoxm was attempting to frame Prana, which was inadvisable considering that Prana and kiku cross-voted in LyLo as he himself noted.

I would like to thank Xtoxm a lot for filling into a slot that was causing me considerable difficulty and playing it both fairly actively and well to the end of the game. Despite the setbacks and shortcomings of activity, I feel this was a pretty good first modded game for me.

[Wraith]

Vengeful does not kill someone if NKed. My version of Vengeful is a slightly modified Super Saint. Whereas the Super Saint only shoots who hammers him, my Vengeful can shoot anyone on his wagon.

[Wraith]

"Paragon of Mafia Hunters" is a body of work award, not single game. I've made the same mistake before, too.

[Wraith]

I personally criticized Andrew's play in the Dead QT and in hindsight I feel like I shouldn't have as mod. I've played with him in a Newbie before where he totally screwed over the town by refusing the claim at L-1 D1, and he got lynched. He was the town Cop. The animosity carried over to this game, I'm afraid.
