Mortal Kombat Mafia [ENDGAME]

[Epignosis]

Earthrealm

Welcome to Earthrealm! Have a drink! I'd offer you some rabbit, but we're all out.

rabbit8 has been killed.

It is now Day 4. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.

[Marmot]

Don't other one me. I am you.

You just don't want me to have all the fun.

Are you having fun though?

[Long Con]

If I do eventually get lynched, then y'all should be mindful of anyone who didn't give a shit about the civilian win condition in the process of doing so. There's no civilian motive for that.

"You're lying, JJJ" is the predictable easy-button response, and if y'all want to go there then be my guest. I couldn't have seen that coming..

Anyone though who acknowledges the possibility that I am truthful and still wants to lynch me either has no idea how to do math or is mafia.

But the Civilian win condition requires Civilians to be alive, and Kano's goal is to make Civilians dead.

Maybe I'm Sonya or Jax and I really want you gone.

Achieving a win isn't always as black and white as reading the win condition. We have to play the game.

Scenario 1. We let JJJ live, and he manages to make cases and make votes that make Civs die. Civs lose, Kano wins.

Scenario 2. We lynch JJJ, and get rid of an anti-Civ force in the game. Less Civs die, cleaner lynches, Civs win.

You getting the more complex, raw, gameplay angle here?

[Long Con]

RIP Rabbit8. Don't leave.

[lapluie]

What the heck..

[Elohcin]

I'm finally feeling a good bit better, yay. I saw some posts using my real life migraine to decide whether you think I am good or bad in game. I only shared about my RL situation so you all knew why I was so aloof and only responding to posts with my name in them. Don't try to read deeper than that. It isn't fair to use that as an indication of alignment. Just didn't want you guys to think I fell off the face of the earth.

woah linki

While we're giving out advice, don't claim antitown roles.
[/quote]

There are only five anti-town roles in this game. There are also two loner roles, neither of whom has to be dead for the civilians to win. Tell me this is a falsehood. Please, try to tell me that.
[/quote]

Survivors are antitown until there is one mafia member left.

If a survivor plays as a townie, the mafia should shoot them. This secures the survivor's vote for the mafia.

By claiming survivor, a survivor ensures a nightkill will not hit them, essentially killing a townie in the process to save themself.

Kano in particular must eliminate certain townies, making him antitown even if there is only one mafia member left.

With 5 townies, 3 mafia members and a claimed Kano, a lynched townie or going no lynch results in a town loss. Lynching Kano puts it at 4 townies vs 3 mafia and the game continues at lynch or lose, same as if a mafia member was lynched.

And this is even assuming anyone believes your claim, which I don't. A baddie could do this and hope to be left alone. Kano gains nothing from this play.

[lapluie]

I'm not buying whatever elochin is putting out, my vote will be on her.

The civilians must defeat Outworld. Not Death. Or IndyMarmot.

[rabbit8]

Are you fucking serious.

[lapluie]

What sucks is I think Dunya and Simon are bad and would actually want to lynch Simon now as Dunya is playing, but that is purely because I like players who post. Now I seem wishy washy but fuck it. Gottta say it.

I don't trust her at all, FYI. Or Simon or Jacks, or SPEED OR JJJ.

LOL, so whatever.

He was wrong about dunya, what about the others

[Jackofhearts2005]

Jimmy and Simon both off the poll. I see we've burned some mafia hidden abilities.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Thanks for your help. Keep playing with us please.

Please come back!

Can you clarify that?

Eeeeh or the mafia has IDed the townie who can do this and is power copying.

The good guys wouldn't purposefully take the two most suspicious players and make them unlynchable.

[Long Con]

@Long Con

What do you think of Marmot?

He's very enigmatic... now claiming Indy. I'll look at his posts and give a better answer.

There are many possibilities of what could have happened.

Simon being off the poll doesn't make sense unless he took himself off.

Let's lynch someone on the poll.

I'm putting my vote on [mention]Made[/mention] for now. Where are you???

[speedchuck]

@speedchuck

When did you turn orange? What's orange mean?

Just now. I'm running the next Burglary. Post goes up soon! (maybe tomorrow)

Thanks everyone for not piling on suspicion while I was taking a sabbath from mafia today. I'll be back tomorrow!

[speedchuck]

Or it goes up now.

[Kylemii]

rip rabbit

Jay has claimed or has strongly hinted Kano (why??). Marmot has also counterhinted Kano.

I think Jay is lying, or even if he's not he's proven himself to be a neutral with bad intentions. Jay rolling a role with a "make sure 10 civs including 2 specific civs" is absolutely going to be proactive towards achieving that because of his "play to win" attitude. but I think he was lying, and counting on the real Kano not saying anything because..... admitting that you're a visibly anti-town role is actually ludicrous??but marmot also seemingly did that. fake claiming to be a doesn't-need-to-be-lynched-role when people want to lynch you looks worse than claiming to be a doesn't-need-to-be-lynched-role to prevent the former thing.

neither Simon nor Jay are on the poll right now which is..... Yeah. Something's obvs-fucky.

[Kylemii]

I guess the first question is "why do any of this?"

and the second question is "who do we lynch instead?"

[TonyStarkPrime]

RIP me. I fell asleep, missed the end of night, and now Jack is scumreading me. Which is cool.

I might be missing something, but why do we keep assuming Jack / Marmot are claiming Kano as opposed to the other one?

[Marmot]

I think you mean Jay.

And you can make whatever assumption you want.

[Long Con]

It's a friggin' sideshow, you guys are distracting the thread. Don't like it. I'd vote JJJ or Marmot. What is this display supposed to do?

[Kylemii]

Jay specifically mentioned part of the mechanic which is known about Kano's role, marmot responded with a counter right afterwards, implying a correlated relationship to that role

[nutella]

RIP rabbit.

Not sure what to make of all this indie-claiming stuff but it feels like a distraction from scumhunting. Kano needs civs to die so I don't like it.

[Glorfindel]

I'm not a civilian.

I'm not mafia either.

I'm gonna lynch you anyway.

Then you don't care about the civilian win condition.

We have no reason to believe you are neutral and you have shown yourself to be against the town. At best you are an honorary mafia member with a weak nightpower. More likely, you are actually mafia.

Doesn't really matter.

Allow me to give you a little advice for future games which you can take or leave:

What I said before about catching mafia not being that easy was the truth. Recall Mountain Mafia. You helped to lynch me, correctly, and for that you deserve credit. Well done and well played. What you did very poorly though was to identify my teammates, and it was the result of you following the most blindingly obvious leads in the thread (Quin and Dom) and ignoring the subtleties of my play.

If you read my posts in this game and actually respect the subtlety, I think you can figure this out. I've given you the answer, all you need to do is find the clues.

I'm not "against the town" as much as you might want to make that assumption for the pleasure of lynching me. The civilians have a limited number of lynches left in this game to eliminate five mafia members. Indeed, I'd be surprised if you have more than 8 opportunities to get 5 baddies. And if you lynch me, you'll have 7 opportunities to get 5 baddies. Don't like what I have to say? Don't trust me? Then don't listen to me.

If you fail to heed my words and you're a civilian, then that is your fault and I can't be assed to help you. I have nobody in this game to disappoint other than myself, and that isn't happening when I am already so goddamned bored.

That last sentence makes me feel rather sad...

[nutella]

Ugh and both Jay and Simon are off the poll? Sketchy...

I'm sticking with voting for speed for now. I'm also with Jack on not liking Tony lately either.

[Made]

sup bitchessssssssss [sorry for my absences gonna just jump in if that's cool with everyone, and catch up as catching up makes sense]

can someone tldr the major events from day 3?

[nutella]

oh hi made

[TonyStarkPrime]

So with the removals Simon’s chance of being mafia goes way up but he’s also unlynchable today. Same with JJJ (who’s in murkier waters).

Percentage rainbow, just so you guys can see my thoughts:
Simon 95
Nutella 85
JJJ 60
Quin 35
Eloh 35
Wilgy 30
Dave / Dom 29
Nova 25
Lap 25
Made 20
Speedchuck 15
Long Con 15
Kyle 10
JOH 10
Marmot 10
Glor 1

@linki
Dunya and Simon in lynch contention, Simon saved by a weird third train and too many people voting Dunya.

I disagree. I feel like indie hunting isn't unimportant. knowing who the indies are can help us figure out why people make the opinions they are making, and POE that issh

that said, what do we have on indie-claimy stuffs?


Linki- Dunya's in the game now? who did she sub in for, did she die?
What makes you so sure that simon is bad?
Have we lynched mafia yet?

She died as civil, replaced with gumshown
No unfortunately

IRl shit, RA training. Anyone who knows about being RA know that training sucks, but with it over, and classes beginning, i'll probably be more back, but not as much as before.
and word ty

Ehh, the Jay "hinting role " bit was wtf, why?
I'm placing vote on JaggedJimmyJay

it's definitely possible. marmot and jay could be working together on this somehow. I don't understand the advantage to it though. I also don't understand the advantage to jay claiming in the first place.

[lapluie]

Am I eye sore or is JaggedJimmyJay not on the poll?

Kano can be killed by mafia right? What is the benefit on their ends if mafia found out, they'd be dead, or are they Sided with mafia, please explain, I'm guessing jjj thought if he claimed kano role he'd be "safe" but hiding behind the mask of mafia, hence he couldn't die.

[lapluie]

Also the player [mention]Dom[/mention] has been gone for ages, could Dunya replace them, I miss her

[Kylemii]

Am I eye sore or is JaggedJimmyJay not on the poll?

possibly both

Simon is also off the poll

can someone who is good at math tell me how far away from lylo we are? I can't imagine jay would do something like this unless he were confident it would lead to something advantageous for his team.

I guess for today we look at TSP, and Eloh. Marmot is also okay as an emergency food source.

[Long Con]

Mafia likes Kano, they won't kill him.

so in game of champians, i got an indy role and claimed indy as alligned with civvies [ie i'd push for the goals of civiilains] I feel like as soon as 10 civs are dead, he's no longer a threat for that reason, but should be looked at as if he claimed civviilan like all other players currently in the game.

my two cents anyways. I don't think it makes him more guilty but i don't think it clears him either. Null imo

[Made]

Addendum- Claiming Indy inherently anti town for the reason long con just said, it gives MAfia a reason to kill us over him

I don't like how Eloh voted for Dunya over Simon & speeechuck, what do you think?

that's why I can't fathom either players' goals here. logically speaking Kano would need to work with the mafia in order to eliminate the right number of civs to win, maybe jay didn't expect Kano to speak up and counter his statement.
