Topic: Mafia XXXIX Star Wars Mafia: REBEL ALLIANCE – DAY 1

[decoyman]

"Are you trying to get us killed, Luke?" Han Solo asked, feet propped up on the dash of the Millenium Falcon. "This plan of yours, it's..." he trailed off.

"Look," Luke said, exasperated, "we've got to destroy the Death Star. Unfortunately, since all our X-Wings are out of commission for oil changes (who schedules these things anyways?), we've got to find another way. Infiltrating the Death Star and doing it from the inside is the only way!"

"The boy's right," chimed in Obi-Wan.

"And even though I'm not even remotely attracted to him, because that could possibly, though I don't know for sure yet, be incestuous, I trust Luke!" Princess Leia said, pouting and crossing her arms. "Shut up, Han!"

"Fine, FINE. But if we get turned into ethereal blue holograms over this, well... don't say I didn't warn ya."

--------------------------------

With that, the REBEL ALLIANCE somehow obtained stormtrooper uniforms and infiltrated the Death Star! But... who are they?

--------------------------------

Just wanted to let everyone know, townies will need to vote at least once every three days. Otherwise, you're out of the game! I'll make note of who's in danger of being killed due to inactivity at the beginning of each day so you know for sure.

While I'm at it, be sure to check out the updated Rules/Roles thread here.

Day One begins NOW!

[that Baby guy]

Just make this the day's thread :/  I'll see if I can't get Megabyte to help you out.

Edit:  And Megabyte saves the day, once more!

[decoyman]

Thanks Megabyte (and UncleBob for the interim help)!

Wanted to get everything up tonight for our overseas players... Finally done, phew! See you guys tomorrow! And as always, ask if there are questions.

[that Baby guy]

un-vote whomever is playing as Han Solo

The man took my ship!

Edit:  Great, no one is.  Way to alter the deal, guys.

Oh, here's a guy that's a traitor if I've ever seen one:  vote Darth Pale

[stevey]

vote Khush

[that Baby guy]

Aww, I thought we moved past that.

[UncleBob]

un-vote whomever is playing as Han Solo

The man took my ship!

Edit:  Great, no one is.  Way to alter the deal, guys.

Oh, here's a guy that's a traitor if I've ever seen one:  vote Darth Pale

Wait, wouldn't Darth players be the townies this time?

He's trying to kill townies!

[that Baby guy]

I bet against a Wookie on a game of holo-chess.  What was I thinking?!  Anyways, deal is to kill Darth Pale.

[Pale]

Didn't I vow to vote for stevey whenever he does this vendetta stuff some time ago?

Vote Stevey

I'm a plain jane townie again

[vudu]

HEY EVERYONE

It looks like decoyman made the mistake of sending out detailed PMs to the townies.  LETS FORM A TOWNIE ALLIANCE TO CRUSH THE REBEL SCUM!

Can I get all the townies to forward me the PM they received from decoyman?  If Grand Moff Tarkin and Darth Vader want to contact me, too, that would be rad.

edit:  OH HAY I FORGOT TO MENTION, DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT SEND THIS PM TO ANYONE OTHER THAN ME.  IT SEEMS ALL STORMTROOPERS RECEIVED THE SAME MESSAGE SO IF YOU LET ANYONE WHO'S NOT A TOWNIE KNOW WHAT IT CONTAINS THE REBELS CAN WALK RIGHT INTO OUR TOWNIE ALLIANCE AND RUIN EVERYTHING.

[decoyman]

NUH-UH, vudu, you tricky character you.

Just so you know, all non-townie members have been sent the message.

And I'm gonna put an honor rule moratorium on screenshots too. Playing the game like that takes the fun out of deducing who's who based on logic.

[vudu]

::SHAKES FIST::

[decoyman]

Congrats, you're a stormtrooper (townie)! Basically, you're a townie trying to root out that Rebel Scum, the mafia. Be dilligent, observant, and savvy with your vote, and you could come away with a win. Just get rid of the four mafia members and the Killer, Boba Fett, and the Death Star will be safe and secure once again to blow up planets and wreak havoc with the galaxy in general.

Two pertinent things: FIRST, I'm setting a voting requirement of at least once every three days. If you don't meet that criteria, you're out of the game. SECOND, don't be afraid to play bold/aggressively: I'm offering one townie the ability to be counted among the winners even if they're dead this time. This will be decided (if the townies win) by a vote for any dead townie or pro-townie role (so, darth or tarkin too) by the living players. Hopefully that'll make this game a little more fun for the townies.

With that, ask away if you have any questions... and good luck!

[vudu]

And I'm gonna put an honor rule moratorium on screenshots too. Playing the game like that takes the fun out of deducing who's who based on logic.

You don't even need to both with that.  Those things are easy to fake.  See?  You sent me my role PM back in January 2006.



Now that the cat's out of the bag there's no point anymore.

[that Baby guy]

Looks like Vudu's a mafia member on this one.  He was sent the fake message, and was looking to learn who was a roled townie by playing it up like he was one, too.

The proof is in his incorrect picture: He forgot to edit the date of an old PM.

I've been in negotiations with the Emperor to try to convince him to upload a newer version of photoshop on his TIE Fighters, but it looks like we scouted out a part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor thanks to Palpatine's negligence.

I can only pray that due to my lack of faith, he is not disturbed and alters any deals I've taken part in further.

[vudu]

Wait, what?  You're in idiot.

[that Baby guy]

Or I'm just not showing my cards this early in the game, and felt like making a joke with an old buddy!

[vudu]

WHERE ARE THE GODDAMN DROIDS I'M LOOKING FOR

[Khushrenada]

Didn't I vow to vote for stevey whenever he does this vendetta stuff some time ago?

Vote Stevey

I'm a plain jane townie again

Since I like Pale and am also tired of Stevey's vedetta. While it is true that Stevey did get 1 out of his 4 guesses right last game, you'll notice that the one person he was right about was the last person he tried to vote out. He's more harmful to the townies with his style of play.

Vote Stevey

[that Baby guy]

Admiral Thrawn, have you been speaking to any Jedi lately?

"You like Pale very much."
-"I like Pale."

"You are tired of stevey's vendetta."
-"I am tired of stevey's vendetta."

"You will go home and rethink of a strategy to ruin the Empire's over-space contingency operations."
"I will go home and rethink of a strategy to ruin the Empire's over-space contingency operations, then write a ten-page post about it."

Have they really gotten to you, my friend?

[Khushrenada]

I've done away with Khushrenada. Admiral Thrawn reporting for duty.

[BeautifulShy]

I'm going to think about my vote for a bit.

[vudu]

Thank you for informing us on your current status.

I'm going to practice my dance moves for a bit.

[Khushrenada]

StormTrooper Swing!

Boogie it man! Booooooogie it!

[Plugabugz]

Note to self: Day ends at 3pm.

CONVENIENT TIMES.

[that Baby guy]

I'm just going to put this out here, seeing as I don't want to die...

So if Boba Fett is out there, and wants someone on his side, he should totally talk to me.  I'd definitely ally with a killer to save my own skin.  Heck, I'd even consider joining the Alliance myself if I feel like too many strings are being pulled without first being discussed!

(Yes, I'm serious about my offer.  Don't kill me, I'll help you do whatever it is you want to do.  That goes in order of likeliness of killing me, with the Alliance and Bounty hunter first, voters second.  If I have no contact from the former, I'd bend to the will of the latter.)

[decoyman]

By the way...

If there are any purists in the game, I just want to let you all know (slightly) in advance that I'm going to poop all over the Star Wars canon, in case you couldn't tell as much from the intro stories or my avatar. I just don't know enough to do anything else.

So. Fair warning for ya. 

[Stratos]

I don't tend to trust people who make sweeping calls for others to send him information. So for now I am voting Vudu.

Anyone with a better lead is welcome to PM me.

[vudu]

I stuck out my neck because I saw an opportunity to unite the townies.  While it's always feasible that I could be a mafia member trying to learn the identities of key townies, that seems like a pretty foolish plan that would be more likely to get me killed than result in any useful information.

Just as long as Greedo shoots first I'm OK with that.

[Stratos]

Been convinced to not vote for Vudu for now.

[Stogi]

VOTE PLUGABUGZ

[NuclearSpeed]

Not much action going on here for having some rebel scum aboard the Death Star. I'll join in for now with the stevey vote, since he is going on this vendetta thing and as a carry-over from last time to get him.

vote stevey

[vudu]

Been convinced to not vote for Vudu for now.

DAMNIT WHEN YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT IT MAKES IT SEEM LIKE I HAVE AN IMPORTANT ROLE

I fully expect to die tonight.

[Stratos]

No. I have no idea what role you have, if any. Someone merely showed me that your behavior was not intended to deceive people and I decided to to not vote against you because of it.

[Mop it up]

Vote Stratos

Don't kill me again.

[Stratos]

I thought we were beyond there petty disagreements?

Mop it up made an interesting point before the game started, actually. She said that we tend to be on opposite sides every other game. Since I am a townie this game, and both Mop it up and I were townies last game, that means it is quite likely that she is mafia. And since it is a day one vote, I vote Mop it up to see what happens.

[Mop it up]

You bombed me. That can never be forgiven.

[Stratos]

When did I bomb you?

[Mop it up]

And you don't even remember it. Maybe I wouldn't be so bothered by it if I thought you had learned something from it. But I guess you tend to lose your memory when you self-destruct.

[Khushrenada]

Super Mafia Bros. Game 32 if I'm not mistaken.

EDIT: And I'm not. Man, I'm good.

[GoldenPhoenix]

All Jedi and rebels must perish. The last remnants of the corrupt jedi order will fall.

vote Maxi

[Stratos]

That was for the good of the galaxy. I was a martyr then, and I'll be one again if I have to for the sake of bringing peace to the worlds. Children should have the right to grow up in a world of stability and peace. You were an agent of chaos and suffering.

/facepalm

You cannot be serious.

[Stratos]

It is a day one vote. I feel I should vote for someone.

Appearances can be deceiving. Let go of your preconceived notions and perhaps you'll see the real side of someone.

[vudu]

It is a day one vote. I feel I should vote for someone.

Vote for whomever you feel like, but don't think that Mop It Up has any more of chance of being mafia/the killer than anyone else.  You have about a 30% chance of guessing right at this point.

[stevey]

Star wars is for fags anyway....

[Stratos]

Maxi has been quiet. Typically Maxi is quiet when he is mafia.

Vote Maxi

[BeautifulShy]

People don't respond to the PMs I send out. I asked GP why she was voting for me and I haven't gotten a response.

[GoldenPhoenix]

Maxi has been quiet. Typically Maxi is quiet when he is mafia.

Vote Maxi

Indeed. No chances can be taken, as the queen of a blood-soaked and corpse filled planet, I hold no remorse for possible rebels. I helped to crack the galaxy in half during the clone wars. I have no fear for I am fear, and one potential corpse will not stop me.

[BeautifulShy]

Vote Stevey

[NWR_insanolord]

Well if he's going to throw around insults in a friendly game I have no choice but to Vote Stevey.

[Stogi]

*strokes chin*

Maxi, after being accused of being rebel scum, immediately changes his vote to stevey, the person with the highest votes so far. Odd way to join a bandwagon methinks.

VOTE MAXI

This is a very good point. He hasn't been asking for vote tallies every three posts either.

Seems perfectly sane to me.  Everyone has one thing in common--the desire to save one's own ass.  When the heat is on you'll vote for whomever you have to if it means you'll live to see the next day.

Yeah, but without a single line of explanation?

[BeautifulShy]

Don't have any leads at this point. Just going along with others.

[Dasmos]

Don't have any leads at this point. Just going along with others.

Maxi has made 838 post in the mafia forums, there is 102 threads, this means Maxi has made an average of over 8 posts per thread (ppt). He's made 4 in this thread.

2 things to consider:
1. This is a Day 1 thread which are typically the longest and have the most pointless type posts, a haven for Maxi and his overposting. Why hasn't he joined in.
2. Maxi's average is brought down by day threads which he can't post in due to his dying earlier, which would technically make his ppt much, much higher.

Maxi is upto something.

ahaha you're right. i'm going to start every post i make accusations with it now.

[decoyman]

And.... that'll about do it. Tally is forthcoming here!

stevey 5
Maxi 4
Khush, Pale, Stratos 1 apiece

You've voted to *pewpewpew* stevey. Results will be announced in the Day 2 thread, which will be up later tonight!

In the meantime, get those night actions in if you haven't already! You've got about... 52 minutes left.
