Mafia / Re: Vengeful Mafia 12.5 - WHERE ARE THE COOKIES!?

Why no warning about people posting before I post, forum!?

So yeah, the D2 requiring two votes to hammer thing was me not considering the game properly.

This could be a way of avoiding the deadlock for four indecisive players though, so obviously that was a feature of the game and not a bug from my short-sightedness.

If you would prefer it be changed to something else to avoid a deadlock though, I’m open to changing it.

This is true, I failed to consider the town might actually play well on D1, thus thought D2 would be the extent of it.

I’m also going to change the specific rules for D2 in the event town lynch the non-flagbearer on D1 and the votes are tied for the lynch at deadline.

Would you prefer I randomly lynch one of the leading candidates, or extend the day until you can come to a consensus?

In saying that I may need to amend the rules slightly to avoid a deadlock on D2 if y’all lynch the non-flagbearer mafia on D1, if we get enough players for it.

Speaking of, do you want me to wait until after BYOR15 to fill the last two slots or start with three of you in a slightly amended game?

Mafia / Vengeful Mafia 12.5 - WHERE ARE THE COOKIES!?
« on: January 06, 2021, 04:07:36 pm »
You were all looking forward to eating the cookies upon your return from a sporting/cultural/music (delete as appropriate) event.

Unfortunately, it appears some of you were far too eager, and the cookies have already been consumed! (insert dramatic musical sting here)

You must eliminate the thieves from within your midst, lest they steal your very soul!




Welcome to Vengeful Mafia 12.5. This is a 5 player, nightless variant, the roles consist of 3 town, and two mafia, one of whom is a flagbearer.

The town win by eliminating both mafia players, but if they lynch the flagbearer, they win immediately.

The mafia win by equalling or outnumbering the town, and the town have no vengekill remaining.

What's a vengekill? I'm glad you asked!

If a town player is lynched on Day 1, they get to use a kill action on one other player. If they kill a fellow townie, the mafia win. If they kill a mafia player, the game continues into Day 2.

Talking in the time between the lynch and the vengekill is allowed, but highly discouraged.

Rules

Days will last 72 hours, no extensions will be allowed. Weekends will count half-time.

Hammers are in effect! The day will end immediately if any player receives half the total votes, plus 1, rounded down.

To avoid a deadlock, any tied lynch votes at a deadline will result in the the mafia team choosing who gets to be lynched in their quicktopic.

Mafia players will have a dedicated quicktopic to discuss their nefarious plans away from prying eyes.



Players:
  • ToonyMan
  • webadict
  • 4maskwolf
  • Luckyowl
  • notquitethere

I can have a game up shortly if there are no objections?

I’ll do Vengeful Mafia, as I think a handful of those have been run on the board before, and it seems easy enough.

Do y’all want a relatively short game, say 48-72 hour days, or a bit longer, say 120 hour (or longer :o) days? Hammers would be in effect for both, and no extensions since they’re usually awful.

If I stopped buying factory-farmed meat I wouldn't really take away any of the factories' profits. I'm just one person.

That’s a silly argument. If everybody thought that, nobody would take any action on anything because they’re all “just one person”.
I know. The problem is that not enough people are actually taking action thus if I did I won't change anything. It's not like I will magically inspire people to protest against animal cruelty by buying free-range.

You’ll not be contributing to supporting the farmers that do use inhumane methods, at minimum. If enough people do that, it will discourage using those methods, likely encourage more humane methods if you choose to buy from those sources instead, and contribute to a reduction in the cost of those things as more people using the inhumane methods change over to the humane methods.

It’s not about immediately changing everything bad about it, or encouraging other people to stop doing it, it’s about doing your own bit to not contribute to it.

Factory profits aren’t the issue, anyway, the means they use to achieve those profits are.

I had a mild (as in I didn’t need to be hospitalized) case of covid, and it was a horrible experience.

I got a great deal of sleep (upwards of 11 hours) but still woke up exhausted, and also with very stiff and very sore muscles. Thankfully I was able to take regular over the counter pain medication -multiple times a day - to keep that at bay.

I didn’t really get a cough, but I had to take somewhat shallow breaths as I got a painful tightness in my chest and throat when taking a even a slightly deeper than normal breath.

The worst of the symptoms lasted about 10 days, but I still felt crappy for the better part of 3-4 weeks.

Basically, if you can get the vaccine, get it. It’s better than getting covid.

If Resident Evil 3 teach anything is preparing vaccines is hard

just stuff some red and green herbs in a tube right

I think Resident Evil should be viewed through the lens that Chris and Jill and the rest of the STARS squad are tripping balls on good ol’ Arklay herb koosh.

I still think the vaccine spoilage might be unintentional. They're saying its intentional because he did it twice... but tbh its a somewhat complex to prepare vaccine, and I've met some really stupid people in healthcare. I can believe that guy is dumb enough to fuck it up, try to cover it up because "eh its probably ok", and then fuck up again in the exact same way. Again, I've had the dubious priviledge of working with people like that.

The person involved apparently admitted it was deliberate.

Then again that was through whatever clinic involved, so maybe they felt it was better to defer responsibility as an act of sabotage rather than their incompetence in training their staff.

More or less the same, there’s just more of the nemesis system and the captain side of things, as there are four areas instead of one, and thus four hierarchies to mess around with. You can go online and attack other people’s stuff which is entertaining I guess.

Get it on sale, basically. If you enjoyed SoM, you’ll enjoy SoW.
