The Syndicate

Indeed! I couldn't believe when he sent in that target on Night 1. I kept fearing for his life up until Night 5 when he found out your identity with 100% confidence.

And thank you to MP for inviting me to co-host with him. It was great to see how things are done around here, I had an excellent time.

Thanks for co-hosting with me, bud, you were absolutely awesome.

Guys, I can't emphasize this enough. I must have sent HUNDREDS upon HUNDREDS of PMs to Sloonei about this game over the past two months. He deserves a round of applause as much as I do, if not more, for helping make this game happen.

Sloonei and I will be handing out shiny MVP banners/awards to TWO players.

All players have a vote! Please PM both me and Sloonei ASAP with the player you think should win each award. You should thus be submitting TWO (2) names, one civilian and one mafia.

Meanwhile, while Sloonei and I wait on receiving these PMs, we can keep talking postgame.

Bumping this so it doesn't get buried.

Vote, people!!!

Are you guys coming to the MAFFIES?!?!?

Spoiler: show

Hell yeah, I'm going to the Maffies.

Actually, as you all will see, I made one host error this game. I felt absolutely awful about it... my RL situation got insane in October and I failed to take RadicalFuzz's secrets into account on the Night of his death. Because of that error, I knew going into this endgame, despite all of the various insane situations, that in the end I would err in the favor of civilians because of it -- since RadicalFuzz should have been alive.

But...!!! If Day 15 hadn't ended as it did, or if the ACEOs had never made Russ insane, here's how it would have happened:

DAY 15 - JaggedJimmyJay lynched!

Then during Night 15, Russ would try to kill MM, who at the time would have had 80% evasion. So there would have been a 20% chance that Russ would have killed him there and a 80% chance MM would survive.

If MM survived, Russ would have been lynched Day 16, ending the game, because MM had enough negative votes to secure the win.

Because of the RadicalFuzz situation, if that 20% had actually happened, I would have just rerolled, and then if it was 20% AGAIN, that would have been the only way Russ would have won the game for the mafia.

DAY 15
Russtifinko -- 1 (LOST) -- LYNCHED
JaggedJimmyJay -- 1 (WON)

JJJ's range was 11 (-5, 0, +5) and his vote ended up on Metalmarsh89. A coin flip decides the game, sparing JJJ from death.

Civilians win!

All that ACEO stuff mattered after all!!

In fact, Diiny, Sloonei and I thought you played such a great game, we wanted to give you your own Psycho Killer banner, so I had Long Con (thank him for the banners, folks!) whip this up for you:

It's not a winner's banner, but now you can show off to everyone that you were THE Psycho Killer.

Diiny wrote:My ridiculous role that I somehow lost with:

-Absorb powers used against me; otherwise unaffected by ALL NIGHT ACTIONS. EVEN KILLS.
-Unlynchable when forum ratio is even on day phase
-Two kills when forum ratio is even at night
-Real live wire

RETRACT ALL YOUR PREVIOUS COMPLIMENTS.

Don't be so modest.

Despite Diiny's amazing role, he played an absolutely amazing game, and almost got lynched on more than one occasion.

What really amazed me was that he didn't really get to use his night power absorption to its full potential... he was only targeted with ONE Night action all game!! And it wasn't until Russtifinko tried to drug him on Night 12!

Russtifinko wrote:Wow, those secret roles are sweet. haha poor Elo....she was so OP! And Diiny got suer lucky with those ratios. He was a monster.

And Bullz, I gotta be honest, it agonizes me that you left the way you did, especially since we came so damn close even without you, and since I put everything I had into this game. I am working past it and will eventually forgive you, though.

I made sure to have extremely high standards for jokes with regards to Elo's power, especially once Matt F and a couple others caught on. The joke had to REALLY make either me or Sloonei laugh to be counted.

And that's it! Though I'm sure I'll get questions beyond what can be answered in all of that. I have the evening free to discuss postgame with all of you, so let's do it.

OTHER SECRETS / DECISIONS

- The last mafioso standing has its kill restriction removed.
- Since Sloonei and I knew that No Compassion's win condition denial was experimental and given the intense amount of posting this game, we decided to remove it. Seems it didn't matter after all.

- Sloonei and I also decided to add an additional condition to Sorsha's role: If a player does not have a Night action, then that player gains a secret extra vote to be used the subsequent Day period. I realized after game start that it was just too unfair to have no reward for players with no Night power.

- Most significantly, and I still feel terrible about this, but somehow I failed to properly take RadicalFuzz's secrets into account on the Night of his death. He should have survived. This is because he was forced to vote Bullzeye by JJJ, who is from the same forum as Diiny. I scrambled and talked with S~V~S to figure out how to fix this. In the end, the spectator chat screwed me, since I could not "resurrect" RadicalFuzz or literally anyone else in his place. I decided to have Diiny's next otherwise successful NK against a civilian fail, but this never applied, and in the end this didn't matter. I decided that, if the game got down to the absolute wire with Russtifinko versus Metalmarsh89 and somehow Russ was able to kill MM at Night, I would have that kill fail instead.

DAY 1

birdwithteeth11 -- 7 -- LYNCHED
Russtifinko -- 4
sig -- 4
Diiny -- 3

No real shenanigans here! Elohcin's vote was worth 0. Everyone else's was worth 1.
The key from this phase is that sig, since he received the second most votes, has a vote worth 2x in all subsequent Days.
If Diiny had been lynched this Day, he would have survived, and the lynch would have resulted in a No Lynch.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 1

Ricochet sends in a key 4 phase (100%) role check on MacDougall.
kneel4justice (Swamp) blocks DrWilgy for the next two Nights!
Choutas elects to change his forum. This is incredibly important, since it will affect Diiny's 1:1 ratio.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 2

Long Con -- 8 (LOST) -- LYNCHED
bcornett24 -- 8 (WON) -- SURVIVED

Long Con almost made it out of this one! The coin toss doomed him though. Night 2 is skipped!
Long Con's vote was worth 3.
sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 1.
JJJ's range was 3 (-1, 0, +1) and his vote ended up on MacDougall.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 3

Golden -- 8 (LOST) -- LYNCHED
Ricochet -- 8 (WON) -- SURVIVED

Another tie! Golden losing the coin toss caused bea to be lynched in his place.
a2thezebra's vote was worth 2.
sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 0.
JJJ placed an extra (secret) vote on Ricochet. He won this from the Found a Job contest.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 3

seaside uses his power to view the correct tallies from Day 3.
Choutas's forum officially changes to The Syndicate.
Bullzeye finally gets to show off his No Compassion by forcing rundontwalk to triple his posting rate and forcing RadicalFuzz to vote JJJ. Interestingly, JJJ and many others started to townread RadicalFuzz based on his read.
Matt F asks "Who Is It?" and confirms Golden's role by guessing it correctly.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 4

Sorsha -- 11 -- LYNCHED
Draconus -- 8

sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 2.
JJJ's range was 3 (-1, 0, +1) and his vote ended up on Diiny.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 4

motel room uses his power to randomly redirect all Syndicate role powers. As a result, Russtifinko drugs sig, Ricochet checks Devin, fingersplints asks Ricochet a ?, and Matt F redirects Elo to Matt F/Black Rock.
MacDougall had plans to make flippy floppy with Golden in a genius plan, but with Golden's death the mafia's plan was shattered.
Bullzeye forces RadicalFuzz to post triple his posting rate, but he pulls it off during Day 5!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 5

Devin -- 7 (LOST) -- LYNCHED
espers -- 7 (WON) -- SURVIVED

Another tie!

sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 2.
JJJ's range was 5 (-2, 0, +2) and his vote ended up on Epignosis.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 5

Matt F saves the day! He redirects TheFloyd73's target from himself (unknowingly) to JJJ, who survived the NK.
Interestingly, Russtifinko is the player selected by the ACEOs for "Radio Head".

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 6

MacDougall -- 8 -- LYNCHED
Diiny -- 7

sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 0.
fingersplints used all 3 of her extra (secret) votes on Russtifinko, but her 4 total votes couldn't make Russ a lynch contender.
JJJ's range was 7 (-3, 0, +3) and his vote somehow stayed on Diiny. Wasn't enough though.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 7

seaside -- 6 -- LYNCHED
JaggedJimmyJay -- 4
TheFloyd73 -- 4

This lynch was closer than most of you probably realized, but seaside still was lynched.
sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 0.
JJJ's range was 5 (-2, 0, +2) and his vote ended up on Strawhenge.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 7

bcornett24 saves the day! He protects Matt F and Epignosis, so Epignosis survives both kill attempts.
Strawhenge targets Choutas and MM, which would have been an incorrect targeting if Choutas's forum alignment had not changed.
Ricochet places a game-changing 3-cycle (80%) check on Metalmarsh89.
Bullzeye forces Elohcin to triple her posting rate. Unfortunately, she fails, and then fails the susbequent quadruple, so she is then killed. She is the 2nd of No Compassion's 2 victims.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 8

TheFloyd73 -- 4 -- LYNCHED
Russtifinko -- 3
bcornett24 -- 2
Metalmarsh89 -- 1

Just like Day 7, this lynch was closer than most of you probably realized, but TheFloyd73 still was lynched.
sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 1.
Metalmarsh89 has accrued negative 3 votes thanks to his power by now.
JJJ's range was 7 (-3, 0, +3) and his vote ended up on bcornett24. He used his extra (secret) vote from fingersplints to double it.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 9

sig -- 7 -- LYNCHED
motel room -- 3
RadicalFuzz -- 3
Ricochet -- 3

With sig drugged, he ran away with this lynch.
sig's vote was worth 2.
Elohcin's vote was worth 1.
JJJ's range was 5 (-2, 0, +2) and his vote ended up on Ricochet.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 9

Unfortunately, bcornett24 didn't save the day this time, protecting JJJ and Strawhenge. This was a rough Night for the civilians.
Ricochet places a game-changing 3-cycle (80%) check on JaggedJimmyJay.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 10

Choutas -- 4 -- LYNCHED
Bullzeye -- 2
motel room -- 2

JJJ's range was 7 (-3, 0, +3) and his vote ended up on DrWilgy.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 10

Russtifinko drugs Ricochet. Because of some ACEO shenanigans (see: Night 5), Russ actually has a 30% chance of his target being redirected, since he was previously targeted with The Overload's power (assigned to Radio Head), but it does not occur.
Metalmarsh89 continues to rack up the night evasion, now he is up to 40%. Previous Nights he was not targeted include: Night 3, Night 4, and Night 5.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 11

Bullzeye -- 4 -- LYNCHED
DrWilgy -- 2

JJJ's range was 9 (-4, 0, +4) and his vote ended up on Metalmarsh89. This is the first time JJJ's spread is actually equal to or greater than the number of players on the poll, so it was randomized among all players.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 11

Metalmarsh89 gets lucky! His 40% night evasion actually saved him from death, so his evasion increases to 50%. This was perhaps the most important roll of the die in the entire game. (Other than maybe Rico's survival on Day 3 and Day 13.)
Also, I killed Fuzz, but he should have survived. Oops.

Refer to other secrets/decisions, my subsequent post.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 12

motel room -- 3 -- LYNCHED
Ricochet -- 2
Metalmarsh89 -- 0

Metalmarsh89 used an extra vote (thanks to fingersplints) on motel room, which saved Ricochet from having to face another tie.
JJJ's range was 7 (-3, 0, +3) and his vote ended up on Russtifinko.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 12

Unfortunately for Diiny, he couldn't try to kill MM because he just targeted and failed to kill him the Night before (yay double targeting?), so he tried to kill JJJ (failed) and successfully killed DrWilgy.
Russtifinko tries to drug Diiny, it does not get redirected (despite growing insanity), but Diiny absorbs it.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 13

Diiny -- 3 (LOST) -- LYNCHED
Ricochet -- 3 (WON)

Ricochet survives another tie!
JJJ's range was 9 (-4, 0, +4) and his vote ended up on Metalmarsh89.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 13

Russtifinko's kill attempt on Metalmarsh89 fails, thanks to his 60% evasion. He now is at 70%.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 14

Ricochet -- 4 -- LYNCHED
Russtifinko -- 3

Ricochet uses his extra (secret) vote (thanks to fingersplints) on Russtifinko, hypothetically tying the tally. But...
JJJ's range was 9 (-4, 0, +4) and his vote ended up on Ricochet, breaking what otherwise would be a tie.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

NIGHT 14

Russtifinko targets JaggedJimmyJay with drugs... but due to insanity (now at 50%) redirecting his power, he drugs Metalmarsh89 instead!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

DAY 15

Russtifinko -- 1 (LOST) -- LYNCHED
JaggedJimmyJay -- 1 (WON)

JJJ's range was 11 (-5, 0, +5) and his vote ended up on Metalmarsh89. A coin flip decides the game, sparing JJJ from death.

Civilians win!

I know all of you are incredibly curious about what happened during the Days and Nights... and I have to just say that there was even more insanity and tension behind the scenes than you all realized!

So I compiled a post I am going to post right after this one where I talk about various interesting things that happened every Day and Night. There are other items I excluded, but we can talk about those later as well.

Lastly, there is an explanation of exactly WTF happened these last few cycles, so scroll down to the bottom if you want to see that first. :P

DAY 0 / ASSISTANTS TO THE CEO

The Syndicate - Decides on powers
- A player of your choice may ask the host whether a certain player is a certain role. That player will be told yes or no.
- All female players gain temporary BTSC for one cycle. Info-dumping and role outing is not permitted.
- Every player picks a city. Players will live in that city during the subsequent cycle. (Secrets) During the subsequent Day, players may only vote for players in their city. During the subsequent Night, players will only be affected by night powers used by those in the same city.
- A player of your choice is consumed by insanity, the effects of which are unknown. (Secrets) An insane player has an increasing chance of having their night power target randomly redirected every night. Starts at 5%, increases by 5% each night.
- Five players of your choice receive a rock. These rocks can be thrown at another player to block them.
- A player of your choice can use their night power twice during the subsequent Night.
- A player of your choice can track another player. During the subsequent Day, the player tracked may send a message to the tracker.
- A fake account can post and cast a vote the subsequent Day. This fake account is controlled jointly by both ACEOs.

RateYourMusic - Decides on songs
- "Who Is It?"
- "Girls Just Want to Be with the Girls"
- "Cities"
- "The Overload"
- "Moon Rocks"
- "Stay Up Late"
- "Radio Head"
- "Mr. Jones"

Instructions:
- During the first part of Day 0, players are in separate forums, based on which forum they are from (The Syndicate or RateYourMusic). They will vote on the options available; no explanations will be given other than "no one has information" on the poll.
- During the latter part of Day 0, players will join together in the main game thread and will vote on two ACEOs to their hosts, one from each forum. Ties will be decided with a new vote containing just those players, extending the Day 0 period. The previous threads will be hidden.
- Each player may vote for 3 options.
- Each option must have at least 1 vote.
- There can be no ties. If there are ties, MovingPictures07 (Sloonei) will become furious. If either host gets upset, then all players from that forum start Day 1 with 5 votes against them.
- Each power and song will be "matched" up in accordance with order. The options with the highest votes will be paired together. So the option with the most votes from The Syndicate will be matched with the option with the most votes from RateYourMusic.
- Every Day, the ACEOs will collectively decide which song will be the soundtrack for the upcoming Night. Every Night, the ACEOs will collectively decide which player(s) will be affected by the song's effects, if applicable. They cannot discuss anything else ever under fear of instant death. If at any time the ACEOs cannot come to a collective decision regarding the song or player(s) affected, they will be removed as ACEOs, and new ones will be appointed.
- If an ACEO dies or is removed, a new ACEO will be publicly voted upon in a Night poll. The first player to receive a vote will be the new ACEO.

SECRET ROLES

Animals – They like to laugh at people. They're setting a bad example. (Secrets) Every day its vote is worth 0. However, the value of its vote increases by 1 every time a player other than itself makes a joke. Its vote resets to 0 at the start of each day.

Houses in Motion – I'm walking a line. (Secrets) For every day that it receives the second most votes, the value of its lynch vote in future lynches permanently doubles.

Love for Sale – Every night, it offers to sell its subsequent lynch vote to all players. The first player that PMs the host accepting the deal may control how Love for Sale votes the subsequent day. (Secrets) Love for Sale will know who bought its vote. If any player from the same forum of the player who controls Love for Sale's vote that day uses its night power against Love for Sale the subsequent night, it will fail. On three occasions, Love for Sale may defy the sale of its lynch vote. If it attempts to do so a fourth time, it will die of heartbreak.

No Compassion – They say compassion is a virtue, but I don't have the time. (Secrets) Has no compassion for players who lurk. For the purposes of No Compassion's power, it sees any player whose post count is in the bottom 10% (rounded up) of currently living players to be a lurker. Every Night, it may select any two of these three abilities: (1) block a lurker, (2) force a lurker's vote, and (3) force a lurker to post more. If (3) is selected, during the subsequent Day, the targeted lurker must post at least x3 their posting rate in the game thus far; if the lurker fails, it must try again the following Day, except with at least x4 their posting rate. If it fails again, it dies instantly. Those posts must be at least three sentences each and be on-topic. If any of its own team falls into the lurker criteria on three (nonconsecutive or consecutive) occasions, it may no longer win alongside that player, and that player will be denied a win if it dies and the mafia win. If No Compassion carries out the kill, it must kill a player who currently satisfies the lurker criteria.

Psycho Killer – Better run run run run run run run awayyyyyyy. (Secrets) Since he cannot sleep, Psycho Killer cannot be affected by any night actions, and is made aware of any powers that target him. If he kills a player who targeted him the preceding night, he absorbs their role power and may use that player's power once at any time. For any day that the ratio of players from The Syndicate to RateYourMusic is 1:1, he cannot be lynched; for any night that the ratio is 1:1, he may nightkill twice instead of once. He wins as the Last Man Standing.

I wonder if this thread will crack 9,000 by the time postgame is over.

25 minutes remain until Day 14 is complete.

Yeah, let's not spam too much please, especially with the Youtubes. Otherwise this thread might crash.

Just under 45 minutes before Day 14 is over.

Sloonei and I discussed the pros and cons of thread v. chatzy spectator chat before the game began, and we opted in favor of the chatroom instantaneous format over the archived benefit of a thread. In the future, I'll probably switch it up.

I'm considering posting any post-game related thought in the spectators thread, as to not spoil whatever my final count here will be, will that be possible? Or a special post-game thread?

Spectator chat is a chatzy, actually, not a thread.

Post-game discussion will happen in this thread, just to avoid any confusion.

On a game-related note, I'll be busy until a half hour or so before the deadline, so at this point I will not be ending Day 14 early.

Interestingly, all of those games have taken place roughly in the past year or so.

Before any of these games occurred, I think Masters of the Universe and the Champions '13 games would produce most of the Top 10.

Chris was banned in the aftermath of the Doctor Who game.

I think he meant top 3 all time. I remember Turnip stopping a few posts short of 1K - more specifically, winning the game 10-15? posts short of 1K, then symbolically refusing to pass the threshold, simply by posting post-game.

That being said, I wouldn't mind the #2 spot.

Oh, that makes sense.

I am not sure what top 3 of all time are... Let me get back to you on that.

No, drugs are not cumulative.

Who wants to rank Talking Heads albums from best to worst?

Maybe I should end Day 14 anyway.

Once we receive his approval, I'll end Day 14.

You guys think JJJ would be alright with ending Day 14 early?

No.

Pending JJJ and Russ's approval, I will be able to end Day 14 early any time within the next couple of hours.
