Mini 619 - Ramen Mafia (Over!)

[charter]

And that folks is why longer days are good for the town.

I couldn't believe I actually even had a chance, I thought for sure you'd guys would just run me up. When strife said that he thought sthar8 was scum, I was shocked. I would have given anything to have killed CWR rather than food, but alas. I think we had some bad luck in this game, mostly that (not really luck, but I pretty much chose food at random), the investigation on muerrto, and the suprise lynching of muerrto (I think we were well on our way to talking out of that one).

Me and darla had a lengthy conversation on the night before the massclaim. We decided for her to just claim vanilla. We had no idea that there was only one vanilla. I tried telling her that as long as your claim is forceful and presented strongly, people will believe you no matter what you claim, but her whole 'deleting the pm' kind of threw that out the window. We also had a code, in case anything went downhill. When one of us said 'ummmmm' that meant it was time to bus.

Good game everyone, I'd like to play with any of you again.

[CallMeLiam]

I've been sorta half watching the game but to be honest the way I was counterclaimed left a pretty sour taste in my mouth. Sorry I wasn't super-active day one but I was in the middle of moving home from Vietnam and my access was limited. Good game town!

[sthar8]

Muerrto, I

brought up

the fact that scum probably blocked kiwi and killed Oman. I knew kiwi wasn't going to kill Oman because he had posted that if Liam flipped town he would target you. I also brought up the idea that scum were hoping to increase the credibility of the doc claim. Strife was the doubtful one

And I'm curious as to why WK targetted Muerrto as well, since Kiwi had announced that Muerrto was his most likely target.

Was I right in thinking that scum tried to kill me night 2?

[charter]

Yeah, I believe we did try and kill you.

[charter]

And we nearly got away with it! If it wasn't for those meddling kids. And their dog.

[sthar8]

Woof.

[Flameaxe]

Indeed. With a shitty mod towards the end... The town wins. I'll get roles posted later, and try to recover the night actions (I lost the word file with them ><).

[melikefood]

Was sort of half watching after I died.
I might've lost the game for the town If I had not been NK'd.

[charter]

Yeah, I'm still kicking myself for killing you and not CWR.

[strife220]

If food and I were alive I'm pretty sure we would have lost a few hours into the day.


I still don't understand why scum made their N1 choices. The fact that Oman died made it fairly obvious that Kiwi did not try to kill him. I guess that would have held more credibility if Kiwi said in game 'weird, I targetted him as asked and he died!'

Why Sthar8 N2? You could have killed the cop and Charter could simply argue he was RB'd. What role did you think Sthar8? Given all the claimed power, me-scum would have guessed him to be Vanilla with just the general opinion that massclaims = bad.

Where's Oman..

[Oman]

Roar.

Whats everyone want to know. Who killed me? What?

[strife220]

Why did you counter-claim Liam and what was your role. Town or neutral or... ?

[Muerrto]

I still don't understand why scum made their N1 choices. The fact that Oman died made it fairly obvious that Kiwi did not try to kill him. I guess that would have held more credibility if Kiwi said in game 'weird, I targetted him as asked and he died!'

We had to block Kiwi, he was going to kill me that was obvious from the thread. Still no clue why WK investigated me, that was blind luck and without that we would've been fine.

But since Kiwi was targetting Oman(supposedly, Oman DID ask him to and maybe he changed his mind) killing Oman made it look like Kiwi did it as asked and Oman was wrong about his role and Kiwi targetting him.

It also set up the doctor protection.

Was again blind luck BB jailed Esthar. Basically some really lucky power role targets cost us the game.

Oh, and Charter claimed 'mysterious new flavor' and you guys bought it hehe.

Can't speak for night 2 since I was dead.

[Flameaxe]

Why did you counter-claim Liam and what was your role. Town or neutral or... ?

I'm pretty sure the way I wrote it, he didn't even know...

Ramen Roles

Mysterious New Flavor – Bottom Ramen Mafia Roleblocker

You are a mysterious new flavor Ramen developed by BBM! No one is quite sure what kind of Ramen you are just yet. Is that Chicken? No no, it must be beef! Maybe it’s Crab! Or maybe even Horse Shit! Hopefully it’s not that one…

One day when you were walking back from the park, two other people/objects/foodstuffs approached you. They wanted to take over the land under the floor of PEGBAM, and create a giant Anti-Top Ramen empire! At first you didn’t want to, but then BBM appeared from the sky and smacked you and told you that you must join them, and that it was your destiny.

So then Maruchan Instant Lunch (_____), Cup Noodles (_____), and yourself joined together to form the Bottom Ramen Mafia! The three of you may talk to each other when the lights are out, and may choose one of you to send to kill one of the other players. One person must specifically be chosen to perform the killing.

Also, every night you can sprinkle your new flavor of seasoning over someone else’s Ramen. Trying to figure out this flavor will occupy that person the entire evening, preventing them from doing anything they might want to do!

You win when you control half of the population of the land under PEGBAM and there is nothing else to prevent this from being undone.



Maruchan Instant Lunch – Bottom Ramen Kill Immune GF

You are Maruchan Instant Lunch! Even though you may be basically the same thing as Ramen, you are not “Top Ramen”. Face it, you’re different. You can’t change that. You will just never be at the “Top”. But you can try.

One day, you decided enough is enough! You’ve had it with all the teasing you had to put up with from all the “Top Ramen” fellers. You wanted revenge! So, you approached two people about banding together to take control of the land under the floor of PEGBAM and finally getting revenge on those Ramen douchebags!

Cup Noodles (______), The Mysterious New Flavor (______) and yourself formed together to form the Bottom Ramen Mafia! The three of you may talk to each other when the lights are out, and may choose one of you to send to kill one of the other players. One person must specifically be chosen to perform the killing.

In addition to that, you are also very similar to the “Top Ramen” kids. You have learned their actions and how they talk, and have become very good at imitating them and blending in. If any of them try to inspect you to see if you really are “Top Ramen”, you will appear as one of them! Also, if anyone attempts to kill you during the night, your Ramen-like appearance will deter them from doing so, allowing you to live through the night!

You win when you control half of the population of the land under PEGBAM and there is nothing else to prevent this from being undone.




Cup Noodles – Bottom Ramen Mafia Goon

Wait, you mean you come in a cup?! What sort of shenanigans is that? Why don’t you come in the traditional bag all dried up in a block like the rest of the Ramen? Vegetables and….ACTUAL “MEAT”? That’s ridiculous! What are you, some kind of demon baby?

These are the kind of comments you’ve had to put up with you’re whole life. Well, you’re sick of it, and so is your best friend Maruchan Instant Lunch (______)! You two want to show these kids whose boss! To make sure your amazing plan doesn’t backfire, you enlist the help (unwillingly) of a Mysterious New Flavor (_______) to assist you in your endeavor.

The three of you formed together to form the Bottom Ramen Mafia! The three of you may talk to each other when the lights are out, and may choose one of you to send to kill one of the other players. One person must specifically be chosen to perform the killing.

You, however, are just a goon. You don’t really have any abilities other than shooting your dried peas at those “Top Ramen” kids.

You win when you control half of the population of the land under PEGBAM and there is nothing else to prevent this from being undone.




Creamy Chicken – Serial Killer

Mmm…creamy chicken…You really aren’t that different than many of the other flavors, but that cream sets you apart. You have a completely different texture and flavor than regular chicken ramen, but that’s just the problem. You’re different. Just because you’re a bit creamier than the rest of the town, they treat you like you’re some sort of inferior being, and you’ve had it.

You want to show everyone who ever teased you or treated you poorly what you’re really made of (which is apparently a different seasoning, boiled water and noodles). Each night, you may choose to kill any of the members of the town that are alive. Cream them real good (*ding*), that’s what you’ll do. In addition to this, because you are still Ramen like everyone else, you will be immune from one kill during the night over the course of this endeavor due to them feeling remorse about killing their own.

You win when you are the last one standing in the land under PEGBAM or when nothing can stop this from happening.



Creamy …Beef? – Serial Killer’s Admirer

No one knows your name. Hell, I don’t even think you exist, and you probably don’t. You’ve always been the loner of the town, sitting off in the corner watching other people. While you did this one person always caught your eye, and that was Creamy Chicken. Even though he always seemed to be made fun of or be told that he wasn’t as good as everybody else, you still kind of liked Creamy. Call it a crush of some sorts.

There was just one tiny problem…While you admired Creamy Chicken from afar, Creamy Chicken was just like everyone else, never noticing or recognizing your existence. You desperately wanted to be with Creamy, but that would never happen as long as the two of you never met.

Shortly before the accident in town, you decided to make a move by trying to blend in with the rest of the people of the town and make yourself noticed. You chose the disguise of Pork Ramen in your plan to win over Creamy. But of course, things did not go according to plan when everyone’s identities were washed away during the accident. You couldn’t tell who was Creamy! Oh well…guess you will have to hope Creamy finds you in the night.

During the day you have your vote. During the night you have no action but to hope that Creamy finds you. Who knows what will happen then…

Mod note: Revealed as Pork Ramen on death if no contact was made. No contact was made due to Oman's early death. If contact -was- made, then the two would join up to form a 2 person serial killer group, with only Kiwi having a kill. If the contact was made, Oman would have been revealed as his true role, Creamy Beef (which is a flavor I made up, don't go looking for it in your local Safeway).

Shrimp Ramen – Bulletproof Townie

You are Shrimp Ramen! Your life has been pretty normal for the most part, no crazy stories you can tell about that one vacation where you got kidnapped and raped by some nut job that walked up and down the street. Nope. Sorry, or should I say congratulations on not getting kidnapped and raped by some nut job that walked up and down the street.

Anyway…There is really only one thing that makes you special, the water. You love to swim. You love it so much you learned how to breathe and live…underwater. You have this little alcove that you enjoy staying in every night. And the best part about this is, it gives you peace and quiet every night, without being disturbed by any crazed people that want to kill you…or kidnap and rape you. The second one is unlikely anyway.

You win when all of those who threaten the safety of the land under PEGBAM are gone/killed/ran out of town.



Beef Ramen – Jack of all Seasonings!

You are Beef Ramen! No one can fuck with you, except for the people that can. You are the weapon of choice in PEGBAM serial killings by NK immune miller vigs and the flavor of choice in many of BBM’s random lynch and day scenes. After the accident, you were ready to fight back, and pull out all of your resources to use against those who threatened the safety of the land!

During the night, you have three things you may do. First, you may choose to make like the NK Immune Miller Vig and kill someone with your seasoning. Second, you may protect another player with your soupy aroma. Third, you may prevent a player’s actions during the night to go through by lacing their seasoning with LCD. You may use each of these only once during the game.

You win when all of those who threaten the safety of the land under PEGBAM are gone/killed/ran out of town.



Oriental Ramen – Cop!

You are Oriental Ramen! You’ve always been head of you’re class, 4.0 GPA through high school and you continued it right on through college. After the accident, you decided to put that skill to use by doing research on the other players to determine if they have been taking part in anti-land under PEGBAM activities.

During the night, you may choose to research a specific player. This research will determine whether or not that person is a member of an

organization

against the land under PEGBAM.

You win when all of those who threaten the safety of the land under PEGBAM are gone/killed/ran out of town.






Chicken Ramen – Jailkeeper

Hey, lookie there! It’s everyone’s favorite kind of ramen, CHICKEN!! You are the most common kind of ramen, and there really isn’t anyone who doesn’t like you. Everyone will eat you up! After the accident, you decided to put your popularity to good use.

Each night you can give someone some chicken ramen noodle soup to eat. The amazing soup aroma and that curing the common cold feeling will protect them from anything that might attack them. However, this protection comes with a price. Their soup that they have been given will occupy them for the majority of the evening, allowing them not enough time to perform any actions they might have wanted to do that evening.

You win when all of those who threaten the safety of the land under PEGBAM are gone/killed/ran out of town.




Spicy Chicken Ramen – Mason

You are Spicy Chicken Ramen! All your life you’ve been a bit spicier than the rest of the land under PEGBAM. That is, of course, everyone but Spicy Chili Ramen (_______). The two of you worked together to hone your spicy skills, and figured out how to send messages to each other without actually talking! The only thing is…it only works at night.

Each night, the two of you may talk to each other, but only at night.

You win when all of those who threaten the safety of the land under PEGBAM are gone/killed/ran out of town.

Plain, Dry Ramen – Vanilla

You are Plain, Dry Ramen! Wait…that’s it? Really? Apparently BBM doesn’t like you very much to give you such a bland, colorless role. Well basically, because you are so bland, I’m not going to give you anything special to do during the night. Just post during the day and don’t get yourself killed. Got it? Good.

You win when all of those who threaten the safety of the land under PEGBAM are gone/killed/ran out of town.


Role assignments for Ramen Mafia:

Mystery Flavor – Charter
Maruchan instant lunch – Darlablueeyes
Cup noodles – Empking/Muerrto
Creamy Chicken – Aioqwe
Creamy Beef/Pork – Oman
Shrimp – Sthar8
Beef – CallMeLiam
Oriental – windkirby
Chicken – Beyond_Birthday
Spicy Chicken – Melikefood
Spicy Chili – Strife220
Plain Noodles – ClockworkRuse


Original idea for flavor, as it began in the opening post, and before I got very lazy:

The hole they found during the opening scene led to another "world" under PEGBAM (described in your PMs, and the reason why I referred to this as PEGBAM 3), which was inhabited by Ramen "people". When Scot fell through the trapdoor in the opening scene, he was turned into one of those "Ramen people". This was hinted towards when he passed the ramen person in the park. He didn't know, and the way I wrote it you weren't either. When he passes by the mirror window, he freaks out because he sees what he really is. The CRUNCH line was a hint towards this. The car that ran into the building had no intention to run into that building. As I made a few hints at, he had a special cargo waiting inside his car. This cargo was a bomb targeted at another place in the city, planted by the mafia members in this game. When the car drove into the building, the bomb inevitably went off ("the blaze ignited the cargo"), taking the building down with it.

The plan was to have the person lynched, and the people killed night one be found dead in the wreckage.

The whole idea of the flavor was to leave many holes in the story, and leave small foreshadowing throughout for those who cared. As the game went on, more and more of the story would be revealed, slightly depending on the outcomes.

Small references in the stories:

-The newspaper was the Nissin Times. Nissin is the company that makes Top Ramen.
-A Scot is a homo joke was completely necessary, as it is in every game.
-The car's driver was Jeremy Schritt, the original creator of the PEGBAM series.

I still don't understand why scum made their N1 choices. The fact that Oman died made it fairly obvious that Kiwi did not try to kill him. I guess that would have held more credibility if Kiwi said in game 'weird, I targetted him as asked and he died!'

Was again blind luck BB jailed Esthar. Basically some really lucky power role targets cost us the game.

Oh, and Charter claimed 'mysterious new flavor' and you guys bought it hehe.

Can't speak for night 2 since I was dead.

Don't forget the blind 'luck' that Oman accidentally counter-claimed Liam (prove-able role), or that Charter, who was caught as scum D1, fake-claimed the one role that Wasn't in the game despite it being the most likely.



So how was Oman supposed to win if Kiwi got lynched before recruiting him?

[ClockworkRuse]

I think you should be kicking yourself Charter. If I would have died the day before role-claiming, Darla would have been safe. And it didn't seem like anyone was likely to take my 'Why is the doctor still alive?' comments seriously.

[sthar8]

I would have, CWR

I forgive you, Oman. It was the mod's fault.

I'd be interested to hear why scum tried to kill me as well.

[Flameaxe]

Oman won with the town if he wasn't found. I forgot that I added it in the PM but not the word document.

[Beyond_Birthday]

Yay! Town wins! I am glad my first completed game is a victory!

Oman, why did you claim beef when you were pork?

[CallMeLiam]

His role was Creamy Beef, the death reveal was actually a lie.
Poor form that.
