Magic the Gathering Mafia - Game Over - Mafia has won!

[falcon45ca]

can i introduce an alternative

Since I'm not yet elected benevolent dictator, of course you may

[tedxtr]

so punish the fool seems like a pretty punishing ability for our team.

the best we can probably do is to make scum play whack-a-mole. we all need mana for something...

fix suggestion : everyone should ask for the mana they need (and that's it - just ask for the mana, don't say what it's for or that it needs priority, etc etc), irregardless of how good or bad their ability is.

loop holes : the mafia will target strong people this way, so we're a bit forced to spread the cards to someone they don't need dead. (PoEish targets that can reasonably be town)

my instinct is to say that 3 mana is a bit tough to gather? so let's not try to get caught up in an ability that takes quite a bit to use anyway.

thoughts / concerns about this?

[Poison]

if anyone tells me how to deal with the set up within 200 words, I'll lock them town and send chocolates and flowers to their home and workplace. for a week.

[Kylemii]

what if instead of electing a town leader we socialize it and each person is assigned one "scum point" that they can place on the person they thing is most likely to be scum that should get yeeted

Ilike you. you can be the dictator now.

it could get complicated allowing a lot of people to be in control of choices but we could probaly get the host to make a poll so we can keep track of it all

Off theme playing card gif?


83% chance Scum

>I play a card face down in defense mode and end my turn

Giant Trunade, Raigeki, Future Fusion for Chimeratech Overdragon pitching a Cyber Dragon and 18 other Machines from my deck, Chimeratech Overdrafon triggers and sends Fusion to GY killing Chimeratech Overdragon, Overload Fusion mats from GY to play a massive Chimeratech Fortress Dragon and swing for lethal.

Hold on... Future Fusion was errata'd it seems. YuGiOh is big dumb.

[Poison]

we are still catching scum this game right/?

[Nicol Bolas]

I agree with players saying what colors they need but not more

[Nicol Bolas]

yes

That sounds like the exact system the game already has in place, but incorporating the point system I proposed with much less confusion....


I like this proposal. If I am elected benevolent dictator, I shall implement this policy and add you to my team of advisors.


No dental, but you get 3 weeks paid holiday

whyy is poison town? give me 5 reasons

I can answer this only if you answer my question first. Are you a green Planeswalker?

Also hiiiii

i think i agree with this

i'm sure some people need more energy than others but no one's fully self sufficient

we could at MOST be public about what kinds of energy we might need, maybe. like make a mana wishlist. and people could just generally give spare energy to people they find trustworthy. anything beyond that risks exploitation i think

[Nicol Bolas]

Wilgy is going to be the day 1 chop 95% of the time

it's already that obvious

his alignment isn't even obvious just that he's going to be chopped

[falcon45ca]

I'm just gonna put it out there now, cuz I see more pros than cons in releasing this info to the town: I do not need any mana from anyone at all. Don't send it to me.

can we claim? Iemme read the op first or maybe my role pm. tuutuu i love you but too many words <3

[Poison]

Each player begins the game with 10 life.

lynch me now baby!!!!

[Guillotine]

Are the houses above the bears head supposed to mean the post is towny?

[Guillotine]

You could talk like this, for starters.

[Kylemii]

i can mostly provide for myself, i wouldn't mind an occasional handout but like there's no real rush.

[tedxtr]

page 3 is talking about hot cats





ok

[Kylemii]

ted is mafia

[Guillotine]

I noticed you're paying particular attention to responses to your town core post. Is there a reason you didn't mention I also ignored it?

I can't say I'm fond of the card I was given. It feels almost like a cruel joke. My alignment isn't to my preference either; having to work with the rest of town sounds beneath my dignity. I'll try regardless, though, I'm still here to crush my enemies

This already is more reads than I expected from Wilgy, and I don't like the departure from his typical behavior.

[Kylemii]

idk what guil is saying but i love the way he says it

[tedxtr]

i think he's saying i'm the king of the jungle

and we all know what that means






anyway, i did say it in signups but it may have not been very specific. i won't be pretty active ig.

and since i'm caught up, gonna bounce now

[Poison]

ted is mafia

you are damn right

[Guillotine]

Everyone should probably say which mana types they can benefit from, unless we think scum has some kind of "targeted removal" which will hurt us for saying our colors. Which I doubt

[Guillotine]

I, for one, would like to know what the ability is, and why I should spend my colorless mana on yours over others.


I'm assuming everyone got at least 1 colorless mana land?

I didn't ask for Mana. I was simply explaining something. I also will likely not be fully claiming at any point this day

Well, maybe you're not directly asking, but you're like that friend when you go out to the bar, talking about how expensive drinks are, and money's tight, but you're having a great time! and it's been so long since we've hung out, and can you believe cover? wow, these drinks are pricey, awe man really? are you sure? thanks man, I love you, I miss you, we need to hang out more often

Then you're reading the intention of my posts incorrectly.

Wouldn't be the first time, tho it's the 1st time with you!


Can you clarify your intention then plz?

I am literally incapable of using my ability without people giving me a reasonably specific kind of mana. I don't want to ask for mana from people; assigning people to give mana is bad because of the Mafia artifact mentioned. Because of that, my primary purpose is giving out mana, which I have specifically 3 colorless of. I wanted people to be aware that I both need a specific mana, and give a specific mana. This means, imo, we to some extent need to understand *how* to give out our mana. I want to know that, because I will be giving mana

Which on that note, I want to say:

Everyone who can keep their mana and use it probably should

Everyone should probably say which mana types they can benefit from, unless we think scum has some kind of "targeted removal" which will hurt us for saying our colors. Which I doubt

I believe the OP said that there are no redirects. I bet they have the 3 artifacts and that's all.

The punish the fool artifact looks like it's only a good play if the wolves know who is likely to be receiving mana, if they use it on a player who is given 0, then 4 x 0 is 0 damage.

[Guillotine]

the mana cost reduces as they get yote

[Guillotine]

and the reason to send someone mana is if you have reason to believe that they need more than they can personally produce?

[Guillotine]

is there any reason to ever not tap a land?

Elaborations:

• Note that both this and the Wolf Pack are night actions, you can't use them during the day (you would have no mana to do that anyway)

• The purpose of this artifact is to prevent the town from breaking the game by making public plans on how to handle everyone's mana.

• Counter (as seen in this card) means roleblock or more specifically just "block". I won't be using the word roleblock anymore, its synonymous with "counter".

• Exiling a player removes them from the game and does not reveal their alignment (as if they were janitored)

• Which reminds me that upon death, players will flip their planeswalker, all of their land cards and all of the artifacts in their possession. The thing that they will not reveal is the state of their cards (tapped or untapped) as well as their current life total. More on the mechanics later.

[Guillotine]

so for example let's pretend i am *googles* uhhhhh Sorin, Lord of Innistrad, one of the hot vampires from MtG, and i have an ability that uses uh... .fuckin.... the spooky skull energy and whatever the red one is, and a kicker that requires some additional energy

if my lands are spooky skull place and red place, i wouldn't necessarily need to interact with the trading mechanic unless i want to use the kicker

Just call all colors by their color. That's their literal name

Blue
Black
White
Green
Red

Anyways, yes, you would be able to use the normal effect, but would need more mana to spend it on the additional effect of the kicker, if you wanted the kickers effect

[Guillotine]

hmm nevermind it would appear as if i’m a villager

shucks

[Guillotine]
