Er... that is also a reason why I played so many AssCreed games.

Fixed link, anyway.

Kazuma

Obviously the dice can't be this bad three times in a row Kazuma has experience of treating injuries from his years of underground fighting, so he treats his broken hand himself.

Replace "Kazuma is dum" with "We need a slogan!"

Before I forget to tell y'all, I'll be going on vacation on Wednesday until... Saturday/Sunday this week. I'll be able to post, but probably sporadically. I'll try to keep up as best I can, though.

At what point does it stop being murder and start being assassination?

Only important people get assassinated. /probably

There is character assassination too.

I'm sure she's hoping it happens a lot quicker than a few days.

That last part doesn't make sense, mornings. Yas.

Makes more sense as a question directed at webadict anyway:

webadict: if an anti-town faction has received an alignment-changing ability like Lenglon's fusion ability - which is claimed to change the user's alignment to the target's alignment - what would happen if said anti-town faction used it on a town player?

Could any anti-town faction/player start this game with an alignment-swapping ability?

Poor wording on that second one, again...

Could an anti-town faction/player start the game with an ability that makes the user's alignment change to their target's alignment?

We're not even 6 months into it yet.

1-shot, mafiakill (gained N2): Monster Within: Convert target to your alignment, if successful you die and flip as their role + alignment, they gain this role.

Just as a reminder, this is flabort's claimed ability there.

So... my interpretation is that it converts the "kill" to mafia, while the user dies and flips as the role and alignment of the target. The target gains the role, presumably meaning that particular 1-shot mafiakill.

At the risk of pointing out the obvious, this would only make sense as something for an individual player to do if they retained their original alignment, as a mafia player choosing to use this and no longer being part of the mafia would be quite silly. Except if the mafia is losing, and they decide they don't want to be on the losing team no more.

Also we may need to figure out how this interacts with revives/resurrections.

Anyway, given that webadict seems as disinclined as I do for an "everyone wins" scenario, this particular ability feels more and more likely to be made up.

Tiruin was just modconfirmed to be town. I was just modconfirmed to have started the game as town.

If Tir was anti-town she couldn't have the ability to swap roles with me pre-fusion then use the fuse to change alignments to town.

So you can prove that the ability isn't a red herring for you, and that the mafia/anti-town don't have role (notably not alignment, byraway) swapping abilities?

Apologies, I tend not to pull punches (well... I am, but only the endless swearing I would otherwise do) when I'm in a bad mood. Graphic metaphor is something I indulge in during those instances.

Anyway, I'm not sure what you mean by impression; I am mostly worried about my enjoyment of the game (which was rapidly approaching nil, perhaps moving slowly away from it for the moment) and a repeat of the unsatisfying nature of flabort's "everybody wins", which was unsatisfying by dint of everyone winning. The journey for me will suck ass not be enjoyed, because the destination sucks ass is entirely unappealing.

The biggest issues with the two plans we have is:

Katamari: scum: "let's have all the townies be one thing so we can kill them all with one action"

Monster Within: takes too pissing long, scum win, which goes against my current wincon.

I mean this all kinda boils down to what y'all find entertaining. For me, this is not, hence my ultra-butthurt and incessant whining on the matter.

I am very much aware that people can be lying about their intentions, which is all the more worrying that you guys seem quite content to put your genitals in each other's mouths, come what may. Pun intended.

It is quite difficult for me to be motivated to play the game normally when this nonsense is being mooted and apparently accepted as the way forward, regardless of how slowly it'll roll on. Some of you are probably genuinely committed to this, which means you have no interest in figuring out alignments, which means we'll essentially have two games going on of all you with your crotches in your faces and the rest of us wondering what the point of trying anymore is.

My interest now is solely I n arguing over this, rather than alignment seeking stuff. That interest would be there regardless of alignment, because "everybody wins" fundamentally goes against what I find entertaining about mafia.

I played one game of mafia in which everybody won, and (sorry flabort) it was the most unsatisfying game of mafia I think I will ever play.
