Death Note Mafia [END]

[Bass_the_Clever]

RIP DP I did't see that coming.

[Marmot]

Interestingly, Matahari and Bass_the_Clever pointed fingers at themselves.

Lol.

[zeek]

Me either

[Marmot]

I wonder what happens next...

[Tangrowth]

Night 12: 3.18

This was it. March 18th. Somehow, Kira had outwitted every opponent he had faced thus far. Now only a select few remained.

Matahari and zeek both died in their sleep that night. What followed was beyond what anyone could have anticipated... that is, except for one person.


Matahari has been killed by Kira.
zeek has been killed by Kira.

To be continued...

[Epignosis]

This game sucks.

[zeek]

How shocking.

Epilogue: New World

Five years had passed. The date was March 18th, 2020.

Spacedaisy looked around her. She couldn't believe it. Her dream had become a reality. There was no crime. There was only peace. Everyone worshiped Kira with every ounce of their being.

SPACEDAISY: I couldn't possibly be any happier!! I have become the god of a New World!! This is so much better than I even imagined.
METALMARSH89: Heh heh. I have to say, Spacedaisy, you certainly cured my boredom.

Bass_the_Clever had died all those years ago, the first of Kira's victims after his victory. He didn't really care. He outlasted his fellow members of Yotsuba and carried out tenure as President of Yotsuba Corporation. He went down in history as the President of Yotsuba with the briefest tenure: 41 seconds.

SPACEDAISY: I will admit, as amazing as I am, none of this could have happened without the sacrifices of my pawns.
METALMARSH89: Hehe. Whatever you say. Can I have an apple?

Spacedaisy tossed an apple in Ryuk's direction. He swiftly caught it.

Even in death, Elohcin, Matahari, and Ricochet's souls slept at ease. They had helped to contribute to their savior's vision. That's all they ever could have asked for.

METALMARSH89: Yummy!
SPACEDAISY: So, Metalmarsh89, I'm curious... whatever happened to Sidoh?
METALMARSH89: Huh? Oh, right, that annoying shinigami I tricked. I dunno.

Metalmarsh89 took another bite out of his apple, while Spacedaisy reflected back on her journey that ended five years ago this day.

Sidoh, having secured his Death Note once again, had no reason to stay on Earth anymore. He flew back to the Shinigami Realm, where he spent the rest of eternity.


Kyosuke Higuchi (Third Kira) has won the game.
Light Yagami (Kira) has won the game.
Ryuk has won the game.
Misa Amane (Second Kira) has won the game.
Teru Mikami (X Kira) has won the game.
Kiyomi Takada has won the game.
Sidoh has won the game.

Lastly, I am rewarding an honorary win as well. Although he technically failed his win condition, boo deserves this win due to his outstanding performance. Consequently, Rem has also won the game.

Congratulations to Bass_the_Clever, boo, Elohcin, Matahari, Metalmarsh89, Ricochet, Spacedaisy, and Turnip Head!!

[Marmot]

Good game everyone.

Dammit Bass, why'd you have to go and kill Rico the other night. The Detectives ALMOST came back and won, lol.

Yotsuba Group - WIN CONDITIONS

Kyosuke Higuchi (Third Kira) – A very greedy and power-hungry man who becomes the owner of a Death Note if a certain chain of events occurs. However, little does he know he is no more than a tool in an elaborate scheme orchestrated by the original Kira. Each night, while in possession of a Death Note, he votes on a victim for Kira to kill, concealing the fact that he is actually the one deciding others’ fates. Higuchi cannot be lynched or night killed until he receives a Death Note; thereafter, even if the Note is taken from him, he can die. When he possesses a Death Note, all members of Yotsuba vote on a player to die every night, but Higuchi has a choice to override the player to be killed. However, if he does so, he risks the chance of outing himself to his fellow members. Each member currently alive has a 25% chance of learning Higuchi’s real identity every time a kill is overriden, with a 75% chance of instead receiving a randomly redirected result. When he gains his Death Note, he is offered the Shinigami Eye Deal. If Higuchi takes the Eye Deal, he can role check two players every night but he must kill one of those two players; this only applies if he overrides the kill selection. If Higuchi currently cannot kill with a Death Note, he cannot role check anyone. Because the Eye Deal cuts his lifespan, all votes against Higuchi in lynches will be doubled for the remainder of the game. If Higuchi refuses the Eye Deal, he still may change his mind and accept it later at any time.

Your win condition: Be the last member of Yotsuba Group alive.


Shingo Mido - After Higuchi has killed two victims, he invites Namikawa, Shimura, and Ooi to a secret meeting. Mido, Namikawa, Shimura, and Ooi gain temporary BTSC; the secret meeting lasts one full day/night cycle.

Your win condition: Kyosuke Higuchi must be lynched while he has a Death Note.


Reiji Namikawa – After Higuchi has killed one victim, he receives an anonymous phone call. During the anonymous phone call, he discovers the "real identity" of Higuchi. The phone call is received at the end of the day subsequent to the victim's death.

Your win condition: Kyosuke Higuchi must be lynched while he has a Death Note.


Suguru Shimura

Your win condition: Kyosuke Higuchi must be lynched while he has a Death Note.


Eiichi Takahashi

Your win condition: Kyosuke Higuchi must be lynched while he has a Death Note.


Masahiko Kida

Your win condition: Kyosuke Higuchi must be lynched while he has a Death Note.


Takeshi Ooi

Your win condition: Kyosuke Higuchi must be lynched while he has a Death Note.

Kira and His Sympathizers - SECRET WIN CONDITIONS

Light Yagami (Kira) – The initial finder of a Death Note, Light is a high-school senior who quickly grows obsessed with power, declaring himself the ultimate decider of criminals’ fates. Determined to create a new perfect world without evil, Light will manipulate or kill anyone in his way. Has BTSC with Ryuk. Writes a player’s name in the Death Note every night, killing them. Arrogant and incredibly manipulative, Light feels no true alliance to anyone but himself, and thus can kill any human, even one of his supporters. Once Misa starts killing, Light may send a message to her every day. If certain events occur, he and Ryuk may gain BTSC with Misa and Rem. At any time, Light may choose to forfeit ownership of the Death Note. If he does so, Higuchi receives the Death Note. Under certain circumstances, Light may regain the Death Note. After regaining it, he may subsequently pass it on to Mikami at any time, but he cannot regain the Death Note again unless Mikami is killed. While not possessing a Death Note, Light cannot be lynched or night killed. At all times after Light and Misa gain permanent BTSC, only one Kira may be killing at a time. Thus, if Higuchi or Mikami possess a Death Note, Light and Misa must abstain, even if one of them also has a Death Note. If the active Kira is ever caught by Near, Light may have a chance to still win, but only if Matsuda is dead.

Secret win condition: All Detectives must be dead. Additionally, in order to start your utopian New World, every player that you have had BTSC with, except for Ryuk, must be dead. No one can know the true identity of Kira!


Ryuk – A shinigami who appears to Light shortly after he discovers his Death Note, Ryuk explains that he has to stay with Light until he either dies or the Death Note is destroyed, and that he ‘dropped’ the Death Note into the human world because he was bored. As a shinigami, he cannot be harmed by humans, nor can he be seen by humans who have not made contact with his Death Note. Oh, and he loves apples. Has BTSC with Light Yagami. Because he is a shinigami, votes by humans in lynches do not affect him, and writing his name down in a Death Note will not kill him. Thus, he cannot be lynched or night killed. However, if he is about to be killed for the second time, although he will still not die, his existence will be made aware to everyone, outing him. Even though Ryuk refuses to take sides and often finds pleasure at Light’s misfortunes, he accompanies Light, and even may assist him. Once Raye Penber has started following Light, Ryuk offers Light the Shinigami Eye deal. If Light takes the offer, Light can role check two players every night but he must kill one of those two players. If Light currently cannot kill with a Death Note, he cannot role check anyone. Because the Eye Deal cuts his lifespan, all votes against Light in lynches will be doubled for the remainder of the game. If Light refuses the Eye Deal, he still may change his mind and accept it later at any time.

Secret win condition: You do not need all Detectives dead to win the game. Because you are bored, you don't really care if Light wins or not. You just want to be entertained. There must be 7 or less players remaining before you may win with any team.


Misa Amane (Second Kira) – A famous model whose parents were murdered by a man that Kira kills with his Death Note, Misa becomes infatuated with Kira and makes desperate moves to meet him. She thereafter becomes Light’s girlfriend, incredibly complacent to his demands. Gains BTSC with Rem when she receives her Death Note. At some point, she gains a Death Note. Once she starts killing, she may send a message to Light every night, and her kill fails automatically if she uses it against him. She stops at nothing to gain Light’s attention, and at some point may gain permanent BTSC with him. Because of a romantic rivalry with Kiyomi Takada, her vote is worth 3 if she ever votes for Takada. At any time, Misa may forfeit ownership of her Death Note. If she does so, she cannot use a Death Note for the remainder of the game, but for the subsequent three days she cannot be lynched.

Secret win condition: All Detectives must be dead. All you want is for you and Light to be married and live happily ever after. Thus, Kiyomi Takada must also be dead for you to win the game.


Rem – A shinigami who appears to Misa after she discovers her Death Note, Rem accompanies Misa and guards her at any cost. As a shinigami, she cannot be harmed by humans, nor can she be seen by humans who have not made contact with her Death Note. Gains BTSC with Misa Amane when she gives her the Death Note. Because she is a shinigami, votes by humans in lynches do not affect her, and writing her name down in a Death Note will not kill her. Thus, she cannot be lynched or night killed. However, if she is about to be killed for the second time, although she will still not die, her existence will be made aware to everyone, outing her. Even before giving the Death Note to Misa, she knows Misa’s identity. In addition, if Misa is targeted for a kill before Misa gains her Death Note, Rem absorbs the kill automatically, ensuring Misa's survival. Certain events must occur before she will give up her Death Note to Misa. Once she does so, Rem serves as Misa's guardian, doing anything she can to protect her. If she ever feels Misa is being threatened, Rem may write down the name of a human in her Death Note at any time, killing them regardless of whether they cannot be lynched or night killed; however, if she does so, she will also die. If Misa ever dies, Rem retreats to the Shinigami Realm, leaving the game. When Higuchi starts killing, Rem gains BTSC with him, losing it with Misa, and also with Light and Ryuk, if she had previously gained it. She may regain BTSC with her former BTSCmate(s) and lose it with Higuchi under certain circumstances. Immediately as she gains BTSC with Misa, Rem offers her the Shinigami Eye deal. If Misa takes the Shinigami Eye deal, Misa can role check two players every night but she or Light must kill one of those two players. If neither of them can currently kill with a Death Note, she cannot role check anyone. Because the Eye Deal cuts her lifespan, all votes against Misa in lynches will be doubled for the remainder of the game. If Misa refuses the Eye Deal, she still may change her mind and accept it later at any time. Rem offers this same deal to Higuchi when he gains a Death Note.

Secret win condition: All Detectives must be dead. All you care about is that Misa is safe. Thus, Misa must survive until endgame for you to win.


Teru Mikami (X Kira) – As a devoted worshipper of Kira, Mikami has a strong sense of justice and feels evil absolutely must be punished. He adheres to a very strict, daily schedule. If a certain chain of events occurs, Mikami gains a Death Note. At this time, he is offered the Shinigami Eye Deal. If Mikami takes the Eye Deal, he can role check two players every night but he must kill one of those two players. If Mikami currently cannot kill with a Death Note, he cannot role check anyone. Because the Eye Deal cuts his lifespan, all votes against Mikami in lynches will be doubled for the remainder of the game. If Mikami refuses the Eye Deal, he still may change his mind and accept it later at any time. At some point, he gains BTSC with Kiyomi Takada. At this time, per Light's orders, he creates a fake Death Note. If Mikami is ever found by Near, Near finds the fake Death Note, delaying Near's capture of Mikami for an additional two cycles.

Secret win condition: All Detectives must be dead. Additionally, you must delete all evil. As such, any human who has ever publicly voted for god (Light) must also be deleted for you to win.


Kiyomi Takada – Classmate and former girlfriend of Light Yagami, Takada becomes the official spokeswoman for Kira if Demegawa dies. Like Demegawa, she may only be Kira's spokeswoman after L has died. If Mikami starts killing, she gains BTSC with both Light and Mikami separately, facilitating communication among the three of them. Because of a romantic rivalry with Misa Amane, her vote is worth 3 if she ever votes for Misa. If she has become Kira's spokeswoman, every night she can force one player to vote the way she wishes the subsequent day.

Secret win condition: All Detectives must be dead. All you want is for you and Kira to reign over the New World together, as he has promised you. Thus, Misa Amane must also be dead for you to win the game.


Hitoshi Demegawa – A very greedy man who feeds off of publicity, Demegawa is director of Sakura TV. If L dies, Demegawa asserts himself as Kira’s spokesman and constantly rallies for Kira supporters to participate in various violent acts of protest. If he has become Kira’s spokesman, every night he can coordinate an attack on SPK headquarters in an attempt to role block Near, with a 25% success rate.

Secret win condition: You do not need all Detectives dead to win the game. Because you are so greedy, you really only care about Kira to exploit him for your own financial gain. If you lead at least three lynches throughout the game and successfully lynch your target, you can win with any team. To lead a lynch successfully, you must: (1) build an argument as to why your lynch target is a baddie (without shirking role outing rules), (2) convince at least three other players to vote for that player for the reasons you stated, (3) be one of the first five players to vote for that person, and (4) get that player lynched. If your first attempt fails, you can still lynch that player in subsequent periods, so long as you satisfy the first two criteria. It does not matter what alignment or role your lynch target is.

Sidoh - WIN CONDITION

Sidoh – A shinigami whose Death Note was stolen, he searches for Ryuk every night to retrieve his notebook. If he finds Mello, something happens. As a shinigami, he cannot be harmed by humans, nor can he be seen by humans who have not made contact with his Death Note. Because he is a shinigami, votes by humans in lynches do not affect him, and writing his name down in a Death Note will not kill him. Thus, he cannot be lynched or night killed. However, if he is about to be killed for the second time, although he will still not die, his existence will be made aware to everyone, outing him. Every night he searches for his Death Note, which was stolen by Ryuk. If he finds Mello, Sidoh reveals himself to Mello and they gain BTSC. Every night he must also pick four roles and publicly reveal their secrets so that everyone is made aware; all of these selections cannot be from the same team, unless only one team has secrets remaining. Once Sidoh finds his Death Note, he steals it from its current owner, ending that player's ability to kill with the notebook. As a shinigami, like Ryuk, he does not kill players using his notebook. After he has revealed all of the role secrets, more secrets are revealed, but are represented in tildes. These additional secrets are secrets that were not explicit in each player's role PM, and thus the player who has that role may or may not be aware of them. Any letters revealed among the tildes are only made known to Sidoh, not publicly. Every time Sidoh successfully solves a role's additional secrets behind the scenes, those secrets are revealed publicly in full. For every role's secrets that Sidoh solves with four or less revealed letters, both Sidoh and the player whose additional role secrets he has solved, assuming that player is still alive, gain an extra vote to be used secretly in any subsequent lynch.

Your win condition: Both make your existence known to everyone and retrieve your Death Note from whoever has it; assuming you have completed both, you can then win with any team.

[Epignosis]

Can't lynch somebody because of real life.

[Tangrowth]

It was an absolute honor to host this game for all of you. I had outstanding participation from my players and I know many of you enjoyed it, even though at times it was very intense and frustrating. I really appreciated the time and effort that you folks put into this game. You helped me realize this creative vision, and for that I am incredibly thankful.

I will now be more than happy to discuss the game with everyone and answer any questions.

[DharmaHelper]

This game should have been more fun for me than it was..

[Marmot]

How long did you know who Mello and L were? Just curious.

To answer your question TH.

Mata tried to NK FZ the night she got her DN. While we never checked FZ, her lynch survival later on confirmed it for us.

DH I believe we checked on Night 7 (can't remember exactly) and tried to kill him on Night 8, only to fail. We used the watch DN we had on Boomslang on Day 9 to check another couple players, to pretend our Night 8 kill didn't fail, and because at the time, we thought he was L.

For the record, Daisy didn't take the Eye Deal until Night 7, and Mata not until Day 12. So until those points, we are shooting pretty blindly.

[Ricochet]

Amazing! I didn't have to do anything to win this bloody game.

Back to sleep in a tin can sleeping car now.

[Spacedaisy]

I was so mad when you died! When I acted so upset bass it was not because of the double votes, I had actually forgotten those. I was just furious that I appeared to be betrayed by you for no apparent reason.

[DharmaHelper]

Honorary mention to Epignosis for calling out the three most powerful civvies.

[Epignosis]

Honorary mention to Epignosis for calling out the three most powerful civvies.

I wanted Near Night killed.

[Marmot]

Honorary mention to Epignosis for calling out the three most powerful civvies.

Yup.

And he was the only person the entire game who suspected Daisy I believe.

[Bass_the_Clever]

Good game everyone.

Dammit Bass, why'd you have to go and kill Rico the other night. The Detectives ALMOST came back and won, lol.

I had to kill either him or you so I flipped a coin lol.

[Ricochet]

Special shout to my active Film baddie laureates for winning again alongside me,, even if we had no contact, even if TH hunted me. Really glad I helped TH. Oh w8, I missed the vote lol.

[Epignosis]

Ironically, I did the most "work" in this game than I have in any game, even though my win condition basically boiled down to luck.

[Spacedaisy]

Can't lynch somebody because of real life.

That is just insulting. I never played that trip as a card to escape lynch and I participated in the game even while there. To insinuate my win was only due to sympathy for my sick grandmother is outlandish. I played my heart out this game, and three separate times in this game I thought I was screwed and couldn't possibly win.

Linki, we already knew who they were without help

Linki bass, I wouldn't have died Ifyou targeted me, but yousee why I postedthat second question lol. I needed to be sure you backed off because you had no fear from me now.

[DharmaHelper]

Anyway, congrats to the winners (most especially TH). I could go on for pages about why I'm not happy about this game but that wouldn't be nice. So, congrats winners.

[Epignosis]

Big thanks to the host- second time he's introduced me to some aspect of pop culture I've found highly enjoyable. And I had a damn good time playing the most boring character in the series.

[Marmot]

Special shout to my active Film baddie laureates for winning again alongside me,, even if we had no contact, even if TH hunted me. Really glad I helped TH. Oh w8, I missed the vote lol.

And you missed your cue to suicide. We knew who you were, lol, and we did want you to commit suicide at that time.

Linki @DH: A paragraph would do, maybe. Was it something from another player, or just the structure?

[zeek]

Congrats to the winners! Boo's move certainly destroyed any chance of a detective win. We actually did quite well at lynches but this game felt pretty stacked against us :P

I had a hard time wrapping my head around all the mechanisms in this game and an even harder time managing my time to play it. It was frustrating at times but it was also very compelling. Great game, MP!

[Ricochet]

Huh so Kami didn't actually kill me.

But lol Bass literlly checking a confirmed Shinigami? Srsly

[Marmot]

For the record detectives, I think TH had the chance to win it for you on the last day. If he had directed any secret votes he had left at Daisy, she would have been lynched and the detectives would have won.

[Epignosis]

Can't lynch somebody because of real life.

That is just insulting. I never played that trip as a card to escape lynch and I participated in the game even while there.

Eh?

Bass needed to be lynched for the detectives (and me) to win. Several people expressed reservations about doing it because of real life. My point was that sympathy for real life shouldn't interfere with a game. Several people disagreed with me.

I wasn't even talking about you.

[zeek]

If I were Ukita, I would go find some sprinkles because I would be straight up vanilla this game.

Not once did I consider using my power. I forgot about it toward the end tbh.

[Spacedaisy]

Where is the facepalm smilie? Sorry man.

Linki @DH: A paragraph would do, maybe. Was it something from another player, or just the structure?

Meh. I spent PM time debating it with MP. In the end, I figured you needed to do exactly what you did and that you didn't really needed me for those two nights. It wouldn't have invalidated Watari's Days, just delayed it or viceversa. I

An argument could be made that the powers of the mafia were a little much to overcome, especially when two of the more powerful civ roles had to wait so long to use their own powers, but I'm not really too bothered by that, since I got to do a lot of decoding and stuff to keep me busy.

What did bother me was my interactions this game with certain players, that just took the fun out of it for me.

I realized that after I put my killls in. Just so people know I wouldn't have be able to lynched till the day boo took everyone out. Rico I needed to check 3 people so I just made MM my fourth.

[DharmaHelper]

I think Rem's two unblockable kills in particular were a tad much.

[Epignosis]

If I were to criticize this game, it would be that having so many aligned invincible roles was too much. Light, Ryuk, Misa, Rem...that's a voting bloc of four, plus the extra Sidoh votes, right?

I told you all the detectives didn't stand a chance.

[Marmot]

Special shout to my active Film baddie laureates for winning again alongside me,, even if we had no contact, even if TH hunted me. Really glad I helped TH. Oh w8, I missed the vote lol.

I see what you mean. Even though there were tipping points, we felt very much in control the whole game. It probably didn't help you all that you had two outed non-civvies running around tearing up the place.

But as I just pointed out, things can change like that in a heartbeat. Momentum took a huge swing when L, Near, and Mello were all killed in an instant. But things shifted back again on the very last day when Daisy was the last Kira. The detectives had every chance to make it their game at that point, but they were just ready for the game to end. There were certainly several factors there, such as some other people pushing for the game to end, or the afore-mentioned mass-killing of detectives as a psychological factor.

Sorry if our interactions bothered you.

[Tangrowth]

I was worried about the balance all throughout this game, but I have to say I'm incredibly happy with the results, and seeing how the detectives could have won the game if TH had used his secret votes on Daisy instead of DP on Day 12, I feel I had given each faction ample opportunity to win the game.

Interestingly, boo's win condition conflicted directly with Light's, so that was the reasoning behind the additional secret 2nd insta-kill. In contrast, Light's watch Death Note kill was designed to take out Misa. The tension between the two roles was certainly something else, but it didn't play out as I had designed it, but maybe it's for the better. I figured one of Rem's insta-kills would be used on Light, but at the point that boo sacrificed himself, his kill was probably better utilized keeping Spacedaisy around to actually achieve his win condition. In the end, because boo played an awesome game and Matahari only died at the end because Spacedaisy needed her dead to end the game, I thought boo deserved the win as well.

The Yotsuba Group was exactly how Epi pinned it early in the game: A mafia game within a mafia game. Essentially, they were civilian-friendly independents, but were free to play the roles however they wished. I thought it would be a really intriguing setup, and very fitting for the theme.

I was consistently floored by how well of a game Spacedaisy and Turnip Head had played. I think both of them had to be this game's MVPs, for sure. That said, I was incredibly impressed with the amount of time and effort so many of you put into this game. I really loved it. You all made this game so insanely intriguing all the way through.

I never expected the Day 0 poll to end with anything other than Normal Lynch, so I was very intrigued to see L/Light had significant momentum. I wonder how the game would have progressed and ended if it had won.

Sadly for DH (and FZ.), neither of them actually had the chance to utilize their role ability. Ricochet suffered the same fate, but on the other side of the spectrum. I think the detectives might actually had been helped if L had died earlier on, so that Mello had the chance to use his power, since he and TH gained BTSC so very early in the game. That said, I was so pleased with the performance of my L, llama, and I hope he really enjoyed the role as much as he seemed to!

Those are some of the comments I have for now, I'm sure I'll have more later. Thanks again to all of you. Somehow I think this game managed to surpass Bioshock, a feat I was incredibly skeptical would ever happen.

[Epignosis]

What did bother me was my interactions this game with certain players, that just took the fun out of it for me.

I thought that was our thing.

[thellama73]

Sorry guys. I tried.

[Ricochet]

So, if Higuchi wouldn't have killed me, would Kami have won with me alive? I knew who she was after she received a secret vote.

That's not true at all, Light and Rem had conflicting win conditions, and Spacedaisy avoided suspicion the entire game, and the detectives still could have won on Day 12, easily.

If anything, the Sympathizer win conditions might have been more difficult.

Where is the facepalm smilie? Sorry man.

No ma'am- you did a good job. Even when I decided for sure you were bad it was too late, and even then I was convinced you weren't Light.

She didn't avoid suspicion Day 1.

If I were Ukita, I would go find some sprinkles because I would be straight up vanilla this game.

Not once did I consider using my power. I forgot about it toward the end tbh.

The reasoning behind your power was that you could use it to save L if you and he ever gained BTSC. Other than that, I can see why one in your position would never use it.

This game was very interesting to me as an outside observer.

A nice introduction to some of your playstyles, and a very convenient end time so that I can take it into account in the new game.

Boo I thought was good until he died. Llama I had pegged as civilian. Epi, I thought was bad. Mata, I thought was bad (when don't I)....

All in all, though, I just thought the entire game was insane!
