Smash Bros-themed Mafia | game over, town wins!

  3. Smash Bros-themed Mafia | game over, town wins!
"In its simplest form, Mafia consists of two sides: the Mafia, and the Town. The Mafia's goal is to kill the innocents, while the Town's goal is to kill the Mafia.

At the beginning of the game, the Moderator will secretly send everyone their role. The Mafia will know each other, while (in the basic game) everyone else will only know their own role.

The game has two phases. Usually the first is Night. During Night, the Town can not communicate, but the Mafia can discuss and choose someone to murder. After the Moderator has received the name of the victim, the Moderator reveals the dead player, and Day begins.

During Day, the Town must choose someone to Lynch; they are trying to eliminate the Mafia, but the Mafia can lead them astray by casting suspicion elsewhere. Generally, players will vote for someone they think is Mafia (the Mafia will vote so that they seem to be doing this as well, and might even vote for each other to confuse the Town); when a player gets a majority of the votes, they are lynched. Their role is revealed by the Moderator, and it is once again Night.

The game alternates between Night and Day until either the Mafia are eliminated, or the Mafia have killed everyone else."

Flash tutorial: http://cataldo.freeshell.org/mafia/mafiascum04.swf
Reading the old game may give you an indication of how this game is played.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rules:
1. Unless your role specifically states otherwise, no communication about the game takes place outside of this thread. This includes both players and non-players.
2. No quoting or partial quoting mod PMs, or faking a quoted mod PM in this thread.
3. Editing posts is not allowed. Double-post if need be. (I can tell the difference).
4. Make your votes clear and easy to see. VOTE: Boozer is good.
You may change your vote, vote for no lynch and unvote as needed.
5. Lynching occurs once a majority has been reached.
6. If no majority has been reached, the player with the most votes is lynched. If there are players with equal votes, the lynchee is random.
7. Thread will be locked during the night phase until the next day phase.
8. Dead players cannot post in this thread, and can no longer communicate privately if their role dictates they can.

Days have a deadline of two weeks. Nights have a deadline of 72 hours.
Inactive players will be given notice after 72 hours. If this happens several times over the course of the game the player will be removed from the game.

I've got some interesting ideas for this one. Might take a while to write up so be patient :3
Capping this one at 15-20 players. Can start earlier if that number is not reached.
First phase will be DAY.

Alive:
JLo, Vanilla Townie
Wooy, Town Vigilante (non-consecutive)
Aerodrome, Mafia Godfather (one-shot investigation-immune, one-shot strongman)
Maribro, Town Jack-of-All-Trades (one-shot kill, one-shot protect, one-shot track)
Barrydabusdriver, Town Doctor
Windkeeper0, Town Absorber (limit one ability)
Invisi, Mafia Role-Blocker
Urisk, Town Back-Up (universal)

Deez, Vanilla Townie, lynched day 2, won posthumously.
cAKE, Vanilla Townie, killed night 2, won posthumously.
Atyeo, Vanilla Townie, killed night 2 won posthumously.

Alright so in all seriousness, if pazx is the cop, which seems fair enough. We lynch hydro, I think his cop oust was faulty at best. maribro vouches for jlo, pazx vouches for hydro being mafia. Seems like the easy kill, we can always have wooy kill pazx if hydro turns out to be good on death.

During the first night, I put Wooy to sleep for I am JigglyPuff. Each night I can use Rest to put someone to sleep and prevent them from completing their night action.

I didn't really have a reason to pick any specific player so I opted for wooy as he was one of the newer players who added at least slightly to the conversation day 1.

Maribro said:
Insane theory time:

There exists a vigilante and a serial killer. The vigilante has stale move negation the serial killer?

Must charge waft. That's my best guess for why there was no kill night one.

But that's just a theory... A smash Mafia game theory


This post was unappreciated, I have no other reason to quote it, I just found it amusing.

JLo said:

The way you worded your post is peculiar: why not outright say that I am Mafia? Why say that I am anti-town? It's simple: because you are lying. Your accusation is very shaky, and calling the fake cop claim is a high risk play as I mentioned earlier. Unfortunately it's not going to work since there's more evidence corroborating my innocence than guilt.


This was actually not addressed to me, instead you were accusing Hydro of fakeclaiming Cop to avoid being lynched. The good news is that you're completely correct, the bad news is that your reasoning is off, the result I got on night one was "town" and the result I got on night 2 is "anti-town". This means that there is a very real possibility that the "anti-town" player Hydro is actually a serial killer, or other third-party role. I believe he is likely Mafia though, and hopefully for the sake of the game a mafia roleblocker (if I get this right then holy shit my reads are on point).

Im sorry I haven't been talking much but I have been keeping up with the thread, I haven't been talking much because at this point I think everyone is abit hazy on whats going on and I honestly am not sure how to contribute because im confused myself. However I would like to point out that after Hydros claim, fake or real, Jlo immediately whent on the offensive shutting down his information with pazx shut down Hydros claim without a second thought saying, "that's a shit claim, i'm out for a couple of hours pls don't lynch anyone" respectively. In my eyes without even investigating the accusation further this comes off as abit suspicious.


Barry, you need to post more.

Urisk said:

That's rough, but I wouldn't worry too much, if you're town you won't die tonight anyway, there are bigger targets for the mafia to hit - I'll get to that in a moment.

JLo said:
LOL WTF PAZX
and asif you get Cop twice in a row lol


It's pretty crazy I know, maybe Dean believes in second chances? I'm not sure if you actually believe me or not, so here's why you should. Hopefully typing all of this is worth it, as it sets us up on a very strong foundation with which we can close the game out very easily.

All of the evidence points to me being a cop. I breadcrumbed hard on day 1, which is exactly what I did in the previous game, if I was Mafia breadcrumbing like that would be incredibly risky (I'm fairly certain at least one player picked up on it). I've been pro-town the entire game, but marginally less so than in the previous game. I believe it is very possible I was a nightkill target on day 1 and I was saved, and then on day 2 I let other people be the town's driving forces to take the heat off myself (as it's especially important for me to avoid dying). Maribro claims to have protected me on night 2 anyway, which is nice, and furthermore the right choice. Well done dude, I know it's unlikely I was targeted on night 2 and we lost a very strong townie in the process but the alternative (you protect Luke, I get killed) was far worse for the town, and your protection that night could have been the turning point of the game.

I was planning on claiming today (day 3), that's why I've been so much more active and pro-town than yesterday. In fact, the delay last night? That was me. I intentionally waited until this (irl) morning to submit my investigation target to Dean, partially to see how other players would react (the result: poorly) and partially because I just really wanted sleep, and I trusted that if I was the nightkill Dean would advance the game regardless of whether I chose to investigate a player or not. My proof of this is that I was the first (or second? @Cake might have beat me) post this morning less than 5 minutes after Dean unlocked the thread (which in turn was only moments after I requested an investigation into HydroPimp).

I initially wanted everybody to speak before I claimed, so I could gauge some reactions and see if I could spot another obvious mafioso member, or get a fake claim. We managed to draw the fake claim from Hydro, luckily for the Mafia the player who claimed my role just happens to be the player I investigated last night so I haven't actually gained any information from this exchange, except that I now believe Jlo is town with near 100% certainty.

Why did I claim when I did? I was under no pressure, in fact the players under pressure were you (Jlo) and HydroPimp. I'm keeping the pressure on Hydro, and taking it off you, so the two possibilities are that 1. I am Mafia and Jlo is one of my partners, or 2. I am telling the truth. We already had strong town-reads on Jlo thanks to Maribro's tracking, and Jlo himself can confirm that he is not Mafia, meaning that 2 is clearly the more likely option. If I was Mafia, why would I claim now and then continue to pressure Hydro when I could have just let him get lynched today anyway?

The fact that I am the Town Cop is also partially the reason I was so adamant about the doctor staying quiet, the other reason is because that was a legitimately garbage play, Maribro.

Next order of business, my suggested plan of action for day 3 and night 3.

This is correct, although I am quite confident that there is at least one other obvious target for the Mafia so if I were to reveal their identity they would probably survive. The prime targets for the mafia are gonna be Maribro and Wooy, although there is a very real possibility that only one of them is town. This is why I want them to double up on their nightkill tonight.

Invisi said:

JLo said:

The question on everybody's lips!

Urisk's claim casts a little bit of doubt over the following, as this was my plan before he posted.

Today, on day 3, we as a town have to decide upon TWO kills. One is going to be HydroPimp, I'm not sure who the other will be just yet. One is going to be a lynch, the other is going to be a nightkill carried out by either Maribro or Wooy. The reason I want them to target Hydropimp instead of lynching him today is that by having a CONFIRMED mafioso the victim of the vigilante kill it forces the Mafia roleblocker's hand, which is a role I believe to be in this game. Forcing the Mafia roleblocker to choose between Maribro, Wooy and myself means it's likely I'm going to have another successful investigation tonight as they're not going to allow a mafioso to be killed if they can help it. If you believe I am the Town Cop (notice how HydroPimp has shut up entirely now?) then I am confident this play will win us the game.

How does Urisk's claim change this? Well, if he is in fact a town roleblocker and he did in fact block Wooy on day 1 then it seems unlikely that there would be a Mafia roleblocker, doesn't it? The thing is, I don't believe him. I'm glad I managed to (Gre)ninja him because I believe he may have outed himself as anti-town accidentally. Dean's flavour text has been IMMACULATE, there is 0 chance he would randomly capitalise the P in Jigglypuff or get rest and sing mixed up. Urisk has made other questionable plays throughout the course of the game, his repeated asking for protection during day 2 made him my top pick for the Serial Killer we believe(d) to be in this game. On top of that, in games with a doctor (highly likely) and a cop (confirmed!) it is VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY likely that there is a Mafia roleblocker, otherwise the strategy of cop claim + doctor protect can break the game wide open as early as day 1.

So if we're killing Hydropimp (which we are), who should the other kill be? Here are my suggestions, in no particular order.

1. Urisk. Reasoning above. I believe he has a higher chance than most of being a serial killer, and a very real possibility of being a roleblocker for the Mafia. His claim of town roleblocker also protects number 2...
2. Corvid. He is too quiet. This also applies to Barry, Lef, and to a lesser extent Aero and Windkeeper, but Corvid is the only one who is actively avoiding playing the game. It's time for everybody mentioned in the previous sentence to talk or be lynched.
3. Invisi. Why is Invisi still alive? With SO MANY killing roles present in the game, then why do we still have 2 of the top 3 "strong town players" still alive? Night 1 the doctor made a good read and protected whoever was targeted, likely me or Atyeo, but it appears that the MVP from the previous game has aroused very little suspicion from either side, and I don't like this.

Dean did indeed not write that flavour text. I was writing at the same time as you were, with the intention of producing a role that no one had claimed. I did some research on the wiki and strung some lines together.

I'm full aware of how risky what I did was but, the intention of this play was two fold. To see if I could bait further power roles out of the town/mafia by claiming corvid was safe from wooy thanks to a "powerblock". We're that to fail and I don't draw out any roles the mafia now have to contend with the metagame knowledge that there's a power blocking role out there which they may help or hinder them, but ultimately I had intentions to get everyone talking more.

The truth is there's a reason I choose to write the description they way I did and it's tied to my actual power role which won't have an effect until a later game trigger.

Seems reasonable. If you're to be believed, then we know Hydro to be mafia, then lynching someone else gives us extra information to use during the night, and eliminates an unknown variable. Though I'm worried it could completely backfire in ways we haven't thought of.

I could ask the same of you. It seems that the doctor made a correct prediction on the first night, and the mafia turned on a weaker target on night 2 who was less likely to be protected. That's not really much time for the mafia to eliminate priority targets like you and I. For all I know, the doctor may well have protected me on the first night. (It was probably one of us, let's be honest =P).
