The Polka Heist [GAME OVER]

[Sloonei]

And sorry I was so sure you were bad, Mac.

[Epignosis]

Wild.

Let future generations of mafia players know that "I'm playing in a Magic tournament tonight" is an accurate scumtell 100% of the time.

Night 4:
-sig blocks Sloonei.
-The Mafia fail to submit a kill request before the deadline.

I understand now, @sig

Yeah I was going nuts trying to figure out how both you and lc were mafia.

[Sloonei]

[mention]G-Man[/mention] thank you as always. I loved the write-ups and the theme, of course. And I guess the game was pretty good too.

[G-Man]

This game almost unraveled completely. After Creature was all-but randomly lynched on Day 1, there was discussion either Night 1 or Day 2 of a Tony-LC connection. But the civvies ran in the opposite direction and lynched Dom Day 2 instead. This game could have been over on Day 3 if the Tony-LC trail had been pursued further. That would have broken my weird little heart. Instead, we got a six-day heist game that pushed north of 2,000 posts.

You folks never fail to turn even the simplest of my games into wild affairs. Other than the sudden change in lynch victim wrecking what little I had going at the time for a lynch post, I had fun.

Thank you to all the players for keeping your cool. We had some tense times but nothing ever got out of hand. Thanks also to my wife. She's been listening to Weird Al music for the last month thanks to this game. She's had enough.

I tried to pump as many Weird Al song title references into the game. All the night poll options, as well as host/dead/non options in lynch polls were Weird Al songs. I did my best where possible to use the polka medley lyrics in lynch posts. Also, the night posts had no bearing on the game. They were just for fun. I'll try to load those polls tomorrow.

Thanks for playing. Perhaps later this year I'll host again.

[Epignosis]

This was fun stuff. Thanks G-Man. I had a good time.

[sig]

Yeah sorry I didnt post as much as I expected, but it was still an amazing game cant wait to play another Gman game!

Indeed

[TonyStarkPrime]

Okay should have pointed out that Sig had the block early but I was pretty sure that was what had happened by Day 5 Sig going crazy

Great game, I thought that scum had a pretty clear path to victory but just as every other time i think that, Sloonei stepped in.
Leaving Sloonei alive was sort of a “meh he doesn’t suspect LC” thing

I would not have looked at you at all if not for that last second vote. As was the case last time, it took a hell of a lot of digging to figure out that you were lying to us. You played an excellent game.

Last second vote was stupid and I don’t think AI? but the rest of the case was very strong. I am once more impressed with your town play.
Maybe it was it’s hard to tell. I have no clue why I thought you wouldn’t vote for DDL but maybe as town I would have been more rational and less goals oriented and gone with that lynch.

[TonyStarkPrime]

This played out eerily similarly to fallout, though perhaps a little less scum-favored by day 4.

[TonyStarkPrime]

Also the CFD was the absolute worst thing to come back to after day 1 it was like “well one of my teammates is dead oops failed to stop that”

[Sloonei]

That was the all time goofiest day phase i’ve ever participated in. “Hot potato” has never been more appropriate. The four of us just sat around tossing names at each other and saying “nah” to all of them until time ran out and we were on Creature.

Night 4:
-sig blocks Sloonei.
-The Mafia fail to submit a kill request before the deadline.

I understand now, @sig

that was soo nice to see

Thanks for the game G-man ^^
Thanks for playing everyone, it was so nice to try to solve i am glad Mac stepped in and played in the last day to give townies the doubt of him being bad.
Sloonei what amazing play and TSP such a scary mafioso!

Sorry for being less active, multitabling is a problem i still can't solve, but playing here became such a joy for me <3 that it was irrezistible.

Cya soon

[Sloonei]

Part of the reason I never suspected Long Con was that first day. I felt like we inadvertently saved him from a mislynch.

[Sloonei]

So who wants to run the next heist?

[MacDougall]

And sorry I was so sure you were bad, Mac.

Meh I managed to save myself somehow at least. Lol.

[MacDougall]

Thx Gman. Gg all.

[Dyslexicon]

Thank you for the game, G-Man.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Night 4:
-sig blocks Sloonei.
-The Mafia fail to submit a kill request before the deadline.

I understand now, sig

And when that failed and you caught TSP, Sig moved on to believing all missed NKs are from missed deadlines, even though he did catch LC.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Thanks for the game, G-man!

Also I apologize that I've been a dick to a few people during this game. I guess I was burnout from the previous game and not really feeling this one so I kept lashing out at other players. But you guys are all great.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Love when my Day 1 hunches are right.

Also love that I've read LC succesfully 2 consecutive games. Hope that is a trend.

[Quin]

i'm not sure how a tunnelling a town sloonei convinced me of 2/3 of the scum team but if it works it works

[Dragon D. Luffy]

I almost voted Sloonei for the sockys because of this game until I remembered we're already in 2020 so Iit will have to wait another year.

[Dyslexicon]

I wish I had faked investigation on Tony like I was planning to. =p
But he was lynched eventually. Good job, town. And gg mafia as well.

I had a bigger case on Tony that I was gonna post if needed and I was gonna cite you and everything.

I'm glad you went there in any case!
I had a read on him that was way stronger than what I usually have, ever since the minute he came into the thread after D1 was over. But I wasn't able to articulate my read it seems. And Tony, of course, played very well around it.

I’ve wanted to pull this trick several times. Sometimes you just know.

[G-Man]

I want to apologize for the delay when it came to writing posts. Night posts were easier because of the submission deadline, but you guys made lynch posts hard to prepare for. This taught me two things:

1) Sloonei analyzed the crap out of the thread action between the close of the Day 1 lynch poll and my lynch post. I wasn't expecting that and I didn't like it as a host because it meant that my delay in posting had an influence on the game. It turned out not to matter too much, as the civvie went on a long string of poor decisions after stumbling into a successful Day 1 lynch. In the future, I now know that I need to lock the thread during a post-poll-ending/pre-lynch-post gap.

2) I should probably lock the thread between my nighttime power submission deadline and the actual night post too. Sloonei, once again, taught me a lesson. Setting that deadline is nice for me as the host, but it takes something away from the game. Sloonei knew he could wait until after that deadline to spew a bunch of reads without fear of drawing a kill from the mafia. That hadn't happened so brazenly in prior games of mine where I set such a limit on power submissions.

This is ALSO updated in the Hall of Fame. Go AGAIN and bathe yourself in the dopamine release wrought by your great victory.

[timmer]

Great game! Thanks, this was fun!
