Newbie 208 - Game Over

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Sun Mar 19, 2006 3:15 am

Post by stark »

Welcome, brothers and sisters, to Old Billy's Drug Shack. Life was a happy place, with happy ponies flying around and singing cows. But no more. Old Billy has gotten word that CIA agents have infiltrated the building and have their mind set on killing everyone, to hushup the fact that they're the ones bringing the drugs in. Old Billy has gathered everyone in the main room, equipped with lava lamps and grooooovy music. Lets Begin!!

The Rules: (stolen from MeMe)
Votes must be in bold. If you do not bold your vote, it will not be counted.

Please be attentive and unvote, if necessary, before casting a new vote. This is not required, but I’d appreciate it.

Executions will require a simple majority of votes. Once a player has reached the necessary majority, his pleas are useless and any attempts to unvote will be unheeded. You may vote: no lynch – majority votes of this kind are necessary to end the day without a death.

The game is not to be discussed outside of the thread unless your role specifically states that you may do so.

Once your death scene has been posted, you’re dead. Stop typing.

Don’t edit/delete previously submitted posts

Don’t quote any PMs from me.

If you have a night choice to make, it is due by the posted deadline. I will not wait for you – if you do not submit a choice to me, tough! No choice will be made.

If you anticipate being unavailable for more than a 48-hour period, please post a notice to that effect in the thread. Treat this game as a commitment. Be considerate – don’t leave us hanging.

Remember, it’s a game. It’s supposed to played. It’s supposed to be fun. Do your part.




These are the possible roles:

Druggie: You are a druggie, with no special powers, other than that of getting incredibly high. You win with the town.

Drug Lord: You are the drug lord. During the night, while all of your druggie friends are asleep, you may investigate one of them to make sure they aren't a CIA agent. You win with the town.

LSD Fairy: You are the LSD Fairy. They don't call it fairy powder for nothing, brother. During the night, you may whisk away one of the residents in the drug house away to fairy land, preventing them from dying during the night. You win with the town.

Agent Johnson: You are agent Johnson, of the CIA. You have been sent to the drug house to make sure that no one tells anybody that the CIA is actually in charge of the drug flow. You and your associate, Agent Smith (______) can kill one of the druggies during the night. You win when the CIA is the majority in the house.

Agent Smith: You are agent Smith, of the CIA. You have been sent to the drug house to make sure that no one tells anybody that the CIA is actually in charge of the drug flow. You and your associate, Agent Johnson (______) can kill one of the druggies during the night. You win when the CIA is the majority in the house.



Roles sent. Please confirm by sending me back a message.

I'm in my first game! Am I supposed to pick someone to random vote now? My first vote shall be
vote bdwhox
. Do we start looking for suspicious people now? Or should I just start trying to find discrepancies in other people's posts? 'Cause I don't want to mess anything up in my first game!
I'm suspicious - in every sense of the word.

Hmm, so everyone has posted, and 6 people have votes. Joker has two votes - and hasn't put out a silly/random vote yet. No one looks very scummy though. The worst thing is Glork putting the second vote on Joker, but Joker hadn't posted yet still:
FOS Glork
! Ameliasay flip-flopped her vote but that seemed mostly in silly retaliation
FOS Ameliasay
. We need more people to say stuff! I will
unvote
and
vote Arafax
'cause no one has voted for him yet!

No one has voted for Glork yet either. So, why vote for Arafax after having just chastised Glork?

And what's so terrible about a 2nd vote?

I just wanted to make sure Joker would pop in and say something. I'm actually quite pleased with his responses so far.
Unvote


To be honest, it's hard for somebody to be outed for anything legitimate this early. I'm not sure how serious or joking Yamahoko's last post is, but I'll
Vote: Yamahoko
for posterity. And because I'm always a little vote-happy to start off these games.




I'd considered voting for myself, because I had nobody to OMGUS, but somehow I think I'd end up OMGUS voting myself for all eternity. =/

True!
unvote, vote Glork
. And now that everyone has been voted for
unvote
. I don't really know how to tell if someone is bad, although I read the Wiki. What kinds of things should we be looking for?

bdwhoX, please tell us your mental models for the rest of us too, we're feeling left out. :)

Fritzler, I for one am looking forward to your mockery. :)

But seriously, at least Yamahako is saying something. And I see he's asking for advice and tips. Anyone? Here's what I think: everyone tell us what you know about drugs. The agents are the ones who know the least. Pretty clever, eh? Ha ha ha ha ha!

I don't consider initial second votes very scummy at all. They are supposed to be "random" after all.

Still happy with my vote until I hear an explanation why Ameliaslay vote then unvoted me. I see it as a scum not wanting to be accused of puting a second vote on someone. I'm probably reading too much into it, but it's page 1.

At least this looks like it will be an active game.

I to am looking forward to the mockery

and because you asked I will tell you how I see you and if the rest of you beg and grovel I may reviel my personal opinions.

Joker how i see you personality wise
you seem like a guy that just got out of colledge and got their first real job. Much of the time you are serious and good at this game and the rest of the time you revert to your inner frat boy and become compleatly random Yet at the same time you are able to inject humor into any comment serious or other wise :D

Sounds like an eager newbie to me, not scummy...However, something to keep in mind is that scum love to hide behind the newbie act...I'm not sure for now, so I'm keeping my vote on bigAl.
p.s. your eyes are shifting :lol:

100% correct! You, sir, are a marvel. I was kicked out of Iota Eta Pi and am now working in sleep research (as a test subject). But enough about me, I hate to hog the spotlight, let's look at some other folks!

Arafax lost his mafiascum virginity by voting randomly for bigAl, who is having a spat with Ameliaslay, who is being followed (stalked?) by Glork, who seems to be trying to help, as is bdwhoX, and Yamahako who wants to be helped. And some Joker is being a little too silly but promises to get more serious when the game does.

Now since I haven't voted yet, I will

vote Arafax


because I don't understand his signature and he voted for bigAl because he didn't like Al's avatar.

Sorry, I'm 25 not a little kid, though I am a bit overly eager I suppose. I first learned about Mafia a little over 1 month ago from MTGsalvation. And I've been chomping at the bit since then to get into a game.

I'm just trying to get some discussion going, I'm not really paranoid. I appologize if I came off like a child.
