Part of me thought Jay’s “second vast” was a trap to lure a fake claim, but I had nothing to lose. Then the Colin thing was just a prayer. I figured I’d luck into a successful claim, or the game would end the moment he showed up.

Good game, y’all. Lesotho sends its regards.

I actually did give Colin a vest.

I’m probably still going to lose somehow

I figured based on the wording of your question. I knew I was screwed then. Well, I knew I was screwed the moment nutella was shot. But that was when I knew it again.

Damn Sloonei. You really shouldn't have saved me on day one.

Our entire team ended up on DDL. Then I killed Epi. Then nutella shot leetic. We really streamlined our own demise.

[mention]nutella[/mention] congratulations on being the newest inductee in the Mac signature hall of fame.

Shoot: sloonei

It's either Audrey or Sloonei. The game is solved. Sloonei would concede instead of wasting this time while he is trying to Canada around with his QTπ. I understand Audrey is unlikely to get on here and concede.

Wait. [mention]Sloonei[/mention] is dating someone? Do they play mafia?

Pretty meta but I buy this.

1 vesr and 2 guns

Yup

Oh the game is over.

Can I shoot somebody still? I still have a gun.

You know in a way I was pretty much the most important and best player of this game, even though I don’t know what’s going on.

Thanks for the game Sprityo!

We just celebrated 4 years together a couple weeks ago, but unfortunately in all that time I’ve been unable to convince her to play mafia

What did the tinklebox do?

Told me if my items were real or fake.

The vote for it ended up being a tie between epi and nutella, because I assume both teams coordinated votes onto one of their own.
Epi won the tiebreaker, but I killed him so it passed to me.

Just a quick report that moments ago we have confirmed another civilian

Fates of the six wives of Henry VIII: Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived.
Fates of the six mafiosos of World Flags: Lynched, nightkilled, shot, shot, shot, made an 8 year old cry.

I am not just mafia in the game; I am also mafia in real life.

You know, nobody ever conceded a game just because they made me cry IRL.

Should've done a lot better in this game, but unfortunately depression got in the way. Oh well.

GG!

Just a quick reminder that I only need 5 more players to start Vault Hunt, if you're looking for a small role madness game to play! (It's not as complicated as it looks, I promise.)

And there are 3 other games in sign-ups, as well. One even smaller than mine.

No worries; taking care of yourself takes precedence over games.

Yep, you did the right thing leetic. I hope you're feeling a bit better now. Besides, the mafia (both) were screwed in this game once DDL went down. Confirmations became very simple.

I think that the best thing to help get this game closer to balance that wouldn't take away too much from its mass-slaughter theme would be a soup kill.

Outlawing claims outright would probably work too. It just may not promote the same chaos.

The game would’ve been a lot better had we had the full 25 person setup tbh

I should’ve removed the blacksmiths before the roleblocks because there was so many vests out at once and not enough mafia to counter them

Other than that yeah this was a flop due to a variety of circumstances, sorry gang

sprityo wrote: ↑Sun Mar 24, 2019 2:54 pm Other than that yeah this was a flop due to a variety of circumstances, sorry gang

It wasn't a flop my man. Folks joined this game to shoot guns, and guns were shot. We had a good time. I hope the mafia did too even if I'd understand their frustration. I don't think it was all the setup's fault anyhow, at least in the role distributions. I think the rules needed some tweaks, but whatever.

I was legitimately disappointed about my fake gun. I figured it was probably fake and part of me really hoped it would kill me. Blowing my own head off in a moment of impatience would have been anti-JJJ and thus quite memorable.

Don't feel bad, I still very much enjoyed it. There was a point where it felt like sloo and I still had a decent chance of pulling through, but only if it wasn't for quite all the claiming/confirming. Even then I was puzzling out how I could slip through with a fakeclaim, but nova would have eventually called that out. I never explicitly claimed gunsmith but if I had nova would have surely said something the moment there were 4 other confirmed ones (DF and LC sort of accidentally confirmed they were smiths rather than santas) and by the time of Mac's claim I couldn't pretend I was a santa either.


Btw, [mention]novaselinenever[/mention] totally deserves MVP if that's still even a thing we do. Dude you were constantly several steps ahead of everyone else in figuring out the entire game. Not only did you have me pegged from the beginning but you figured out a lot of other things about how the kills etc went down (like the jack vest thing) and you were really the only one to seriously consider Sloonei after he shot speed. You're the mafia's worst nightmare. Kudos

I'd have even more fun if people signed up for Arrowverse Mafia, Steely Dan Mafia, Vault Hunt Mafia, and The Addams Family Mafia.

I did say 3-5 day phases did I not?

One adaptation which could be a difference maker here: vests protect against gunshots in the day, but not against mafia faction kills.

Same. I tried to make the most out of being pinned in a corner the last day.

I think restricting the roleclaims would have helped a lot to balance the game. But the 25-person setup opened things up a little so that mass roleclaiming would not have been such an accessible strategy. It's not sprit's fault we didn't hit that total.

mac is an easy to read person tbh. he's just a hardass and has good intuition day1. that's all ill give him though haha
