Return to “Chess Mafia [CHECKMATE]”

From a host's perspective, what was the need for people to PM you about it? What would you do in that case?JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 11:35 pmI forgot to post Rej's announcement, and right before I corrected myself he posted that he thought he'd been roleblocked.

In other words, the mafia played as inefficiently as one might conceive during Day phases.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 11:26 pm I could only laugh as I wrote up the Colin lynch. Obviously that was a very lucky break. He could have just voted to save himself and added a .5 if he'd been online. Then the whole game is different.
That sounds like a very cool mechanic. I would not have guessed that much. Too bad it never came into pl...yeah no.JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Fri Feb 14, 2020 8:22 pmAs it happens, nothing was with the whole Chess thing. It ended up entirely irrelevant because the game ended so quickly. How it would have worked under more typical circumstances:
Whenever a White pawn is captured, that player loses his bonus .5 vote (if not already used). If a White power piece is captured, that player's power role is eliminated entirely and rendered vanilla.
Whenever two Black pawns are captured, one of the mafia members loses their bonus .5 vote (if not already used). If a Black power piece is captured, the black faction loses one shot of their power role abilities of a strength that depends upon the strength of the captured piece (Queen > Rook > Knight = Bishop).
With even one more phase, I think we get into that. Y'all started very defensively, but the board was set up for a slaughter soon. A lot of Night 2 abilities would have been cancelled.
But, yanno.

Do I really have to say that if I were Colin's teammate, he and I wouldn't be that sloppy?
That's really the only defense I have here, and even that is shoddy given how few people voted. If I must be lynched, so be it. I'm not mafia.
Also vote nanook he's bad bad baaaaaad!
What's with the face? It's true, what I just said.

I noticed Sig's post, I wasn't sure about it being genuine, so I didn't vote. But from this to vote for Sig's lynch without actual game posts from him is a long way.
Honestly I don't get Colinis' vote and I would like an explanation.
Other than that I'm going to work and come back in any possible break, hope to have my answer until then.
Softball question. Rej can stay a suspect. I don't care if Rej voted Colin.

So let's start slowly, we have aproximated 4 phases until it is supposed to finish, this means we can get 8 claims out of 10 (majority).
It might be helpful to have a faster progress and informationflow with claims. Democratically I'd say we vote and discuss for who shall claim.
Mafia probably will consist of a roleblocker/cop and some godfather equivalent I think. Maybe more spicy stuff like copy abilities.

Have TSP and Nanook been in the thread yet?
This is a goofy question. I'll let others parse it. Everyone, what do you make of this particular interaction?ColinIsCool wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 4:26 pm Jackofhearts2005 what's up with the no vote? Placeholder or strategy?

Poe is like Epi, Sig, Tony, Nanook.
I’m betting if Nanook and Tony are town they can be cleared.
You wanna just give up now Epi or play it out?

I put more stock in the former.
I still think sig is a civilian.

That would be dumb though.Long Con wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 11:01 pmWell... you could have put your vote on a player that had one vote, tying Colin and giving him a shot.Epignosis wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 10:58 pmStop trying to buddy me like your partner blatantly did.Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 10:47 pmThis is not the best but also not the worst.
Show of hands. Does scum Epi start a lone train 1.5 hours from deadline and then dip when his partner has 1 vote?
Number one, I wasn't going to be around (even 1.5 hours I was busy with dinner). I didn't "dip." I have basketball stuff to do.
Number two, there was no numerically viable way I was going to be able to save Colin even if I wanted to. At the time, there were two votes on Colin and only one or zero votes on anyone else. I was never going to get it done on my own. I needed sig.

Then perhaps you can say what you didn't understand in this post when you are fresh. I don't see how it's unclear.Michelle wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 9:29 pmCan you reformulate please like I am 5?Epignosis wrote: ↑Wed Feb 12, 2020 9:00 pmKinda sketchy that only four non-mafia people voted at all, don't you think?
If civilians don't vote, the mafia wins. If you're a civilian, please vote. If you're not, please don't.
I will read the rest of the thread in the morning but now I just looked up and didn't understand a thing in this post.
Kinda sketchy that only four non-mafia people voted at all, don't you think?
We're supposed to elect someone to die.
Not strange at all.
I voted for sig because of this.
And given the current state of activity that we have, what would you have me to do? Sit on my ass?Long Con wrote: ↑Tue Feb 11, 2020 11:46 pmNah. It's regular Creature style AFAICT. You're contriving. [VOTE: Epignosis] aubergine
I recommend lynching Creature on the basis of this post.
Epi are your reads helping town?
