Bay 12 Games Forum

I don't think Tiruin is coming back, so TheDarkStar, please investigate Tiruin right now so that we can just take her out of the equation.

I checked tntey's profile a few minutes ago and saw that he was online.  He went offline just now.  I hope he posts soon.

Day 1 ends tomorrow.  We should propose our final cases soon.  Late tonight, I'll return with my full list of reasons why I'm voting SaberToothTiger, unless he says or does something to change my mind.

I already claimed.

We should shoot tds/filipk/tiruin fairly certain their is scum there.

I meant the other investigator.

SabertoothTiger is this your first game of mafia? of bay12 mafia?

Please. Why are you voting to lynch somebody without a real reason? I think you are hoping to get a kill early on, so that being cult is easier for you.

SabertoothTiger, if you think fillipk is cult, then why are you neither interrogating him nor voting for him?  You also seem overly defensive in every one of your posts.  Do you know how to scumhunt?

Okay, I have a plan then.  If we all role claim, there will be either 5 or 6 townies.   The investigator can use his ability on one of the townies to narrow it down further.  If the mercenary claims and wants to align with us, then we'll interrogate the vanilla townies to identify scum, but shoot the mercenary at the end of the day.  Then he'll accuse whichever VT seems the scummiest in the hopes of joining our side.  Scum will probably kill power roles each night and we'll just have to keep interrogating the VTs and shooting the scummiest of them.  By Day 4, we've either won or lost.

I claim Kind Soul.

Ah, ignore my previous reaction post.  I reread the context of that statement and realized it was just fillipk speculating, not claiming he knew stuff about the cult. 

Okay, fillipk, I calmed myself down, reread the flavor text, reread your posts, and re-evaluated you.  The flavor text does mention Guardians of Earth, private space stations, players wearing masks, and other superhero comics-esque elements.  I googled your superhero name, and apparently it's some kind of mythological giant found in norse mythology, so it is probably legit.  I can now understand how you got the idea that we all superheros and power roles.  I get the impression that you actually are a power role rather than the cult leader.

Unvote. 

That said, I don't think anyone else should claim a power role.  I think your theory that we are all superhero-inspired power roles is wrong.  From a game balance perspective, if that was true, then we could easily all claim, state our abilities, and utilize our role abilities as a team to identify the cult leader and cultists to win the game easily.  For example, if our power roles were Cop, Watcher, Tracker, RoleBlocker, Commuter, Role Cop, Jailkeeper, and Vengeful, then we'd be able to use our abilities together in such ways as to confirm townies and inspect suspicious players.  Cultists would have quite the dilemna providing a fake claim too.  If they provide one too early, it could end up being a copy of another power role, which would be suspicious and worth investigation, but waiting to provide a role last would also be suspicious.  It would be a lose-lose situation for the cult unless they had a series of abilities too that they could use to "prove" their innocence.

I won't be posting much during Tuesday and Wednesday.  Real life will be keeping me busy most of that time.

Ok, I'm back again.  I realized I should probably comment on some of the other stuff going on, so I-

The converted have no power but the cult leader is night immune and we win if we get him, and if this was the case I would be kind of pissed if you converted me, I like having powers

Origamiscienceguy:
Wait a minute.

The Townies win when they kill all scum and semi scum scumbags.

The Mercenary (semi scum) - You were hired by the mastermind to act as backup and your loyalties are shaky. If lynched, you may accuse someone of being scum. Depending on whether you align with the townies or traitors after death, you win when the side you aligned with wins. If you live to the end, you are treated as scum. If the Knifer dies, you are the stabbing person but the Mastermind decides on who to kill.

So, we would still have to lynch the mercenary.  However, if he sides with us and we lynch him last, would he still be able to switch sides at death so that he can win with the town?  I want verification that he can before I reveal my role and go along with the plan.

@Mod (SaberToothTiger):  If the semi-scum is the last scum player lynched, is he able to switch sides after dieing so that he wins with the town?
