Lynch All Lurkers Mafia! GAME OVER

[Ether]

It is in fact Day 5. I still lack editing powers of my own. Bah.

3 populartajo (ortolan, Xylthixlm, elvis_knits)
2 ortolan (MafiaSSK, populartajo)
2 Xylthixlm (Empking, Stephoscope)

1 Unvote (Kinetic)

8 alive; 5 to lynch.

[Empking]

I'm pretty sure we started with no more than 4 scum. The claimed power roles simply aren't enough to balance the game against 5 scum with double days.

Double days help the scum?

[MafiaSSK]

I'm keeping my vote on orto. He's been emotional enough and unreliable enough that I'm going to stick it there.

[ortolan]

Please tell me how I've been "emotional" and "unreliable" so I can see what exactly has given rise to your incorrect and bad read on me

[populartajo]

Reseting time.

As usual, weekends are for other kinds of fun.

See you on Monday.

[Xylthixlm]

Double days help the scum?

They would be even worse for balancing the game against 5 scum with regular days. Double days is a mitigating factor.

Also: if we mislynch here with 3 scum alive, it is game over for the town unless we quick lynch someone. If all three scum are allowed to lurk during the second lynch, even if we nail one of them, the other two will be able to NK and end the game.

So that is very important to keep in mind.

We lynch one of Xylthixlm and ortolan--if that happens to be a mislynch, we quicklynch one of populartajo and Empking.

Or vice-versa.

Is there anyone who thinks this won't work?

So far that is what I'm thinking. I just want to know in my mind if it is Xyl or Ort I want to lynch before I go forward.

I'm leaning Ort overall right now...

Alright, enough. I've read as much as I can, and I think I've got in my head what this means if Pop is town.

vote:pop

[Stephoscope]

The above vote is for L-1.

I really would prefer to lynch Xylthixlm or ortolan, but will consider a tajo lynch if we can all come to some sort of agreement about what happens if he's town.

[Kinetic]

I'm not in for lynching emp right now even if we lynch xyl/ort. If we lynch either we lynch pop as far as I'm concerned.

I'm also not for lynching Elvis. The only possibility for her being scum is if there are 2 or less scum left, so she can't be a lynch target until we go down to 5 players, if even then.

The masons are pretty much in the same boat, there might be one scum, so to everyone else its a 33% choice while it might only be a 50% choice for me.

As it stands, Ort/Xyl are the only two I can choose to lynch from, and I'm leaning toward Ort, if only slightly, over Xyl.

So I guess you could say

Second Vote: Ort

If pop goes town.

If she is scum, this is all thrown out and I plan on doing a lot more thinking before voting.

Let's see. I can see a (slim) possibility that Empking isn't populartajo's partner. In that case it would go lynch me, I come up town, lynch populartajo, he comes up scum, scum kills (5 alive, 1 scum), lynch Empking, he comes up town, and then there's a choice between ortolan or elvis_knits or a mason.

Yeah, I think I'd definitely prefer lynching tajo first.

[MafiaSSK]

Fine. I'll go vice-versa on the vote.

unvote,Vote tajo

If town then orto lynch

[Stephoscope]

Yeah, I think I'd definitely prefer lynching tajo first.

Well, there ya go.

[Stephoscope]

I think I am fine with lynching ortolan, not Xylthixlm, if populartajo flips town.

And lo, all three masons are in agreement about something.

About damn time, lol.

[Ether]

5 populartajo (ortolan, Xylthixlm, elvis_knits, Kinetic, MafiaSSK)

2 Xylthixlm (Empking, Stephoscope)
1 ortolan (populartajo)

8 alive; 5 to lynch.

Populartajo,

mafia goon

, has been lynched.

It is now Day 5, Block 2. With 7 alive, it takes 4 votes to lynch. The votecount has been reset.

[Kinetic]

Alright, it was expected, but still, Pop was giving me some doubts through this day. Glad I stuck to my guns.

[Kinetic]

Now the question becomes:

Do we hit a vanilla (Ort or Xyl), a mason (Not sure honestly, the more I watch the less I think any are scum) or Emp.

...

Vote:Emp

We have at least an extra lynch, the MOST the scum could have is 2 left, thus no chance of LyLo from this kill, and I want to know if there was a possible doc block or if the scum No Killed.

Plus, I can't justify taking Emp into endgame.

[Kinetic]

*No chance of the game ending is what I meant, obviously if we mislynch there is still the possibility of a First Lynch LyLo during the next day if there is 2 scum left.

[Stephoscope]

Wow!

I see no reason not to

Vote: Empking

and believe that we are in fact in a game with nothing but vanillas and masons. One doctor and no other power roles? I don't buy it.

[Stephoscope]

It's bizarre looking back on the thread knowing what we know now. Everyone else on roflcopter's proposed scumteam was lynched and flipped town, but tajo somehow stayed alive this long.

Anyway, everyone keep an eye out for lurkers.

[Xylthixlm]

vote: Empking

Obvious.

[populartajo]

[Xylthixlm]

Stop concentrating on who's scummy and look at the goddamn role distribution.

What are the possible 3-man scumteams that include me that would result in a not-totally-imbalanced setup?

And for goodness's sake unvote while you work on it.

LOL

XYL SAYS: STOP CONCENTRATING ON WHO IS SCUMMY!

What?

I am not good at setups and balance, but I've been trying to outguess the mod. Nobody really wanted to help me until now, when I have gone back to plain scum hunting. Now you're all like, "forget scum hunting and outguess the mod, since I look like scum."

XYL SAYS: PTHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHBT!
