That said, this particular game is proof that inactivity doesn't always work anyway, and it isn't the first. It's a large part of the reason we won this, and not just because of the final day where only one of the three townies showed up. Had everyone been participating, we wouldn't have been able to pull the stunt where we didn't make a hit is one example, which seemed to be part of the reason they thought thatguy was a legitimate townie.
It was that (especially since I knew he was active during that night period) and that Khushrenada told me he could probably be trusted.

So once again, inactivity and Khushrenada killed the Townie cause.
He can be trusted early on.  As the game goes on thatguy if he is still around and is making votes that seem to good to be true then it probably is for some reason that benefits him.

Okay and I think that covers things. If anyone has any suggestions on how I can tweak roles to make it work better let me know.  Really the only one I could see which may needs tweaking is Alexia Ashford possibly.   

Anyway you are free to sign up for the game.

1353
I want to note something with my role.   It was either a revive or a kill.  So if I was the only one to die that night I would of not been able to revive anyone. I would of been forced to kill someone or don't use my role at all.  If I didn't die and someone else died then I could of revived said player one time.     

Also I just want to mention I have my signups for my next game up in the Funhouse but please continue the discussion here with the wrap up for this game until I close sign ups. Carry on.

Hello everyone to my new Mafia game and it is going to be a fun one I feel.   This game is a bit of a side game from the previous Resident Evil game I hosted just one month previous. This game is going to be pretty standard aside from one thing which I will get into when I go over the roles. Before we get to that we should go over the rules first for this game of Mafia.

How to play Mafia

If you are on the townie side you want to vote out the Mafia.

If you are Mafia you want to vote out the townie side.


How do I vote?

Each day I will put up the day thread and everyone will decide on who is Mafia and then vote for them. Simply type in bold for who you want to vote for for example Vote BeautifulShy.   The vote is mainly used to vote out who one thinks is on the Mafia side.

If you want to change your vote then you must unbold your previous vote and make a new post while keeping your previous vote visable. un-vote BeautifulShy  or Vote BeautifulShy will work; and then make a new post with your new vote.

What is a Mafia hit?

The Mafia gets to attack 1 person each night with a kill action or neighborize action. To start Albert Wesker will start with the Mafia actions on odd days and then on even days Alexia Ashford will use her neighborize actions.

What happens in the event of a tie?
In the event there is a tie and the day is over then I will have a 30 minute period to break the tie.  Anyone can break the tie.  Be it someone unvoting for one of the players in a tie or someone who hasn't voted yet and then deciding to vote for one of the players in the tie. I will keep the 30 minute period going for that whole time and I will go with whoever has the most votes at the end.  If for whatever reason there is a tie still after the 30 minute period then I will randomly choose someone alive and kill them.

Rules for the game

This game will be an open setup meaning that every single role will be known at the start of the game to those playing. Meaning you won't have to ask me if such and such a role is in the game or not.

I currently have 5 roles for the game with the remaining players being normal townies and Mafia goons.

The day period will run for 48 hours or until a majority is reached and is held for at least a hour. The night action period, in which certain roles may submit their night actions will last for 24 hours after the end of day period. After those 24 hours have passed the next day will begin.  I will start the next day earlier if I get every action in and get confirmation that they don't want to change their night actions before the 24 hours are up.

Typically for my games I have a voting requirement but because of a certain role people can vote as much or as little as you like. It is up to the players to call out this sort of behavior and do something about it.

As there is two Mafia teams the two Mafia will alternate Night actions. The Organization Mafia will get odd game days to send in their actions. The Ashford Mafia will use their actions on even game days.

To win this game the Townies have to survive both Mafia and have at lease 1 player still alive to win.
 The Organization will need to destroy the Ashford Mafia of all of its members and have an equal or more members of the Mafia to townie players. 
The Ashford Mafia will need to destroy the Organization Mafia of all of its members. They will also need to have equal or more members to the remaining townie players.

In the event one Mafia team dies the remaining Mafia team will be able to use their actions each day.

I will have signups open until  Midnight,January 6th AZ time(no DST).  Roles will go out after signups close and I will begin the game sometime on the 7th of January. 

Roles for the Game

Townie Roles

Claire Redfield: This is the Investigator this time around.  This is her story and she is searching for her brother Chris Redfield ever since she escaped from Raccoon City. She will use her investigations once each night. Claire can use her role earlier in the day period and get results back right away if you choose to do so.  Claire will only get one usage of her role each game day.

Steve Burnside: This is the Doctor for the game.  Steve will be able to protect someone from death each night. He can protect someone else as many times as he likes and he also has a limited amount of self protects which will be 2 for the whole game.  Steve is not the best protector as a character but he is willing to save anyone he is able to.


Leon S Kennedy:   This will be the Encryptor role. With this role Leon can PM me a message and I will post it in the day thread when they want me to.  This can be used to share Leon's thoughts anonymously and it might be helpful for relaying the investigators results to the thread or possible suspicious players in the thread or other randomness.  Leon received a long distance radio call from Claire Redfield and he is able to send messages to Rockfort Island. Leon can send one Encryptor message to the thread each day. It can be as long or short as they wish.


The Organization Mafia Roles

Albert Wesker: This is The Organization Mafia Leader and he has the power of the Mafia hit.  He also has the power to come back as a normal townie in investigatons. He will send in the Mafia hit on the odd days, 1,3,5 ect.
Albert will have a certain amount of normal Goon Mafia members which will be determined when the sign up thread closes.  If he dies, the Mafia hit will go to the goon Albert chooses.  If he is voted out the hit will not go through.  Albert Wesker is always going to target any survivors who know of him and his plans and those include the S.T.A.R.S members who survived.  He is also looking out for himself and can't be trifled with any other people or organization. In his eyes they will all be destroyed. 

Organizational Goons- These will be normal goons and the number will depend on how many players sign up for the game.

Ashford Mafia Roles

Alexia Ashford:  She is the leader of the Ashford Mafia and is a bit different than the typical Mafia Leader.  She has the Neighborizer power. The Neighborizer power can be used on even days.2,4,6 ect.
 What it does is she will send me someone she wants to neighborize and if she is successful that player will become a goon of hers.  The success rate of Neighborizing someone is 50% A flip of a coin roughly.   Once she has an even amount of goons that Albert Wesker Mafia started with then she will be able to send in a hit on anyone she wants.

 She will start as a team upon herself and will have to gain members by swiping other players to join her side. She can not neighborize dead players. If she is voted out then she will have no Neighborizer/Mafia Hit action that night.  She will get to choose her successor and they will be able to use the Mafia hit only. Any Rolled players or Mafia that get neighborized will lose their previous power and can not use their powers for Alexia Ashford.  Alexia Ashford is the sister of Alfred Ashford and is going to do anything in her power to make sure her ancestral home at Rockford Island remain free from any others which to disrupt her and her brothers home.

Ashford Mafia goons: These will be obtained by Alexia throughout the game from the alive players and there will be a 50% chance they will become goons.

Normal townies.  This will be the remaining townie players without roles.  They will be notified they are townies at the start of the game.

Or it could of been ThePerm, Mr. Bungle, Nickmitch and you from ThePerm using their bumper to protect themselves if they still had it.  That would have been interesting day.

ThePerm had already used the Boost on his very first night, good move too, because that's how he evaded a hit from the Killer.
Thatguy purposefully suggested he still had this option to obfuscate while posing as a Townie.
What a game.  Lots of trickery.

1356
Had they voted, what would have happened tomorrow?I would have hit ThePerm. It would be me, Mr. Bungle, and nickmitch.

Looks like that is the game.  Mafia of thatguy, Mop it up, MASB and Insanolord win.  Wrap up thread is over here.   http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/forums/index.php?topic=63899.0e

1358
Mr Bungle is aptly named. Day 6 of the game was weird because I made my post and then it seemed to stretch on forever. I checked it last night and there was no change. And then I get back on today at noon and i'm dead and day 6 is over and day 7 is over. I'm assuming Nickmitch and MrBungle were too busy with holiday stuff or Star Wars.

If they had voted we wouldn't be in the mess we're in.
That is so true.    I am guessing both of them lost track of time and when the day closed because for me the day 6 was supposed to close at a little before 8am.  I figured with Mop it up voting last night or in the early morning there would of been some votes but I guess thatguy didn't want to leave things to chance and posted his vote 20 minutes before the day was to end.   

After Insanolord was voted out I figured there was two ways this game could go either a townie or Mafia win.   Townie win involved everyone voting out Mop it up and then Day 7 would of come and it would of likely been thatguy, The Perm and one of Nickmitch or Mr. Bungle.  Townies figure out who is the GF is after some digging and vote out thatguy.  Game would of ended there. 

 Mafia had two paths.  What happened with Day 6 and 7 and the Mafia not really fearing outing themselves with the vote or something a little bit more complex.

thatguy votes out Mop it up along with everyone else,  no mafia hit on Night 6, That leaves, thatguy, The Perm, Nickmitch, and Mr. Bungle.  Players question why there was no hit once again and maybe target Nickmitch in the vote because the past few days Nickmitch has been absent from the day threads and he is voted out.  Nickmitch is voted out and then thatguy sends in a hit for Mr. Bungle and it is a one to one tie and in those cases Mafia win automatically.

1359
Gonna post some of the thoughts I had after I died and throughout the game.

After I was notified  that pokepal died along with me I felt partially responsible because like a fool I told Mop it up their role in an effort to save pokepal in the vote on the first day.  It also caused the Mafia to target pokepal if they wanted them gone. I also felt like because of my foolish mistake that I had to revive pokepal.  I also figured with Khushrenada, pokepal, and The Perm the game could of gone in a good direction for the townies. Investigator, Cupid, Confirmed townie with a bumper could get things going.  That is a good trio of players.  I also felt that the Cupid role could be used in two ways.  Pair two players together and with that pair you could use investigatons on other players to try and narrow things down.  Maybe one or two of the players are Mafia and they have to stay alive and could be beneficial to the townies by forcing them to stay alive because only Cupid and the pair know they are paired together and maybe if say thatguy and say Nickmitch are paired together maybe thatguy could go after different targets or maybe one of their own mafia members and that could of made the game a bit different.   

 

1360
I was beginning to suspect I was getting double crossed but I felt like it was too late at that point to do anything but go forward with the current course of action and hope for the best.

Well played all.

I'm curious as to if anything of your searches resulted in finding anyone other than townie or killer?

1361
I guess the only other question I have for this game is how did the Reluctant Mafia member work? Can they create a hit where there is none or is it only used when there is a hit sent in Steefosaurus?

1362
The craziest part about all of this is that I never even signed up.

Edit:  I have been told every time I'm mafia and Mop it up is mafia, I vote for her. Whoops!
You have done that every time. Both Phoenix Wright games and this one come to mind.  Maybe stop that because one of these days people are going to notice. :P

1363
Well that was a fast and fun game even though I died in the first night.   

I sent these guesses to steefosaurus on the 18th on who I thought Mafia was. Thatguy- Godfather,Mop it up- Mafia #2, Mr. Bungle- Reluctant Mafia Member.  I was pretty spot in aside from Mr. Bungle.  I figured this much from all the players that voted for me in the Race Leader poll on the first day.   Mop it up, Insanolord and Mr. Bungle said they voted for me in the Race Leader poll and I felt like this was to make me make a difficult decision on who Mafia might be that early in the game and I did waver once but it was to Mop it up and thatguy was voting for her as well so I am sure thatguy had a plan if Mop it up was voted out instead of MASB and maybe it would of been me that was being whispered vote possibilities from thatguy instead of pokepal.

 I also questioned if I should of revived pokepal that first night instead of killing Mop it up and letting the townies figure things out instead of play Follow the Investigator throughout the game and maybe with pokepal dead thatguy couldn't of led the investigator to false options in searches.

Oh well fun game and I will be posting a signup thread for my new game sometime today and I will have it run through the holidays.  It is going to be Mafia 84: Resident Evil: Code Veronica Pain(or something like that.)  Basically it is going to be a branch off of the main Mafia game series and the Remastered game will come later on when I figure things out more for that game.

So the current game is likely over soon so I am going to post that I will host the next game. However it will start in January at some point.  I will throw the signup thread up after this game is over and it will be up through the holidays and I will note when signups close.     This will be the game that I talked about earlier in this thread.
So I have another idea for the game using the roles that didn't make it to this past game like a second Mafia and kinda having the 2 Mafias and then a few townie roles and then the rest of the players being vanila townies and  mafia goons for the two mafia. There is one thing on one of the Mafia which make it different but I will have the mechanics of it explained and it won't be a closed setup.  The two Mafia teams will alternate nights with their actions and what they do and the Townies will have to figure out the Mafia and survive the game and the Mafia will have to survive each other while trying to eliminate everyone else.  It should be fun.

I have some things I have IRL that I need to do so I won't get to this game and hosting it till January so if someone wants to jump in and host a game or two before then I would be okay with that.

Basically barebones aside from the 2nd Mafia's leader which if you saw my previous game google doc you know what it is.  I will explain more in the signup thread.

General Chat / Re: NBA Thread: Out for the Season (Broken Hand)
« on: December 20, 2019, 09:53:22 PM »
So this keeps on coming up in the NBA news and it has been expanding on as far as the plans go. 
This is about a in-season tourney for the 7th and 8 seeds in the conferences.  Here is how it would work.

The NBA season would be reduced to 78 games. This would in theory start in the 2021-2022 season on a trial basis and would have an option to continue the following season.

There would be an in season tourney and a play in tourney.

The in season tourney would start play around Nov 24th 2021 and goes till Dec 11th 2021. (Dates are tenitive)
In that tourney there would be 8 divisional games played. 4 home and 4 away games. The 6 division winners and 2 wild card teams would qualify for the quarter finals. Semi finals would be played as a double header and the finals would take place 2 days after the semi finals. Semis and Finals will be played at a neutral site like Vegas.  Basically where there is no home court advantage. Players on the winning team would split 15 million amongst each other and the couching staff would split 1.5 million.  There could be different prizing for the teams that made the final 4. 

This is how the play in tourney would work.

The regular season would end on a Saturday as opposed to Wednesday, giving teams a whole week before the playoffs start.   
Top 6 teams in each conference is in the playoffs.  The 7 through 10 seeds will have a chance to get in the playoffs by playing each other. The 7th and 8th seed would play each other with the winner clinching the 7th seed. The 9th and 10th seed would play each other with the winner of that/those game(s)? would play the loser of the 7/8 seed matchup to determine the 8th seed.   The first 2 rounds would be played as usual and when it gets down to the final 4 teams they will be reseeded based on regular season record.

Bench needs to produce more when Kuzma is out and let the starters rest a little.  I wonder if until Kuzma comes back maybe KCP needs to come off the bench so there is a scoring punch off the bench and have Bradley start like he was at the start of the year.

 This game was difficult to watch in the first half where the Bucks were up by a large margin.  It also doesn't help when Giannis is hitting 3s better than last season.  He must have gotten 3 point training from Kyle Korver in the off season and in training camp. People have been saying that Giannis needs to get better at the 3 last season to be the best player in the league. Well that has happened and I am genuinely scared for the league with how Giannis is playing.

That gambit didn't end well.  Can a perfect game happen or will the townies fail?  Find out next time on F-Zero TV.
Oh you of little faith.
I have faith it just hasn't happened before.  I await your play.

The original Star Wars trilogy had a flow that was understandable.  The Rebellion is introduced and has a new hero.  The Rebellion is crumbling even though the new hero is rising, just to have a great fall.  The Hero and the Rebellion overcome all odds and have a great victory.

I don't feel like this new trilogy is following any story arc at all. 
The Force Awakens introduces the Resistance and Rey is the new hero.  The Last Jedi shows all the failure that amounts to going nowhere even through Rey brings Luke to face Kylo Ren. In the final part of The Last Jedi it is being shown that there is still hope even though the Resistance is dwindling.   In The Rise of Skywalker possible hope and defeat of the First Order along with KyloRen?  I hope people can see the stand ins to the characters and where things are similar to the OT.   Wait and see in 2 days.   

Yeah, I think if there's anything damnable (or redeemable if you disagree with me) about this trilogy writ large, it's that they've clearly followed some of the same skeletal structure of the original trilogy. 

Same song, different verse/lyrics. 
This is what upsets me about Star Wars Fans. You expect something different and it tries to do it in general people crap on it.  Oh it is too similar and people complain that it is just a retread.

Well it had to happen at some point in the season.  The Lakers finally lost away from Staples Center.  They were down AD and Kuzma and had to have a balanced scoring attack to keep it close.  Some late free throw missed from Howard and LeBron could of kept the Lakers in it but the Lakers lost 105-102.
