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."

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)

Dead:
ThatLaggyPerson, Mafia Tracker, lynched day 1.
Deez, Vanilla Townie, lynched day 2, won posthumously.
cAKE, Vanilla Townie, killed night 2, won posthumously.
Atyeo, Vanilla Townie, killed night 2 won posthumously.
Corvid, Independent Serial Killer (2-shot kill-immune), lynched day 3.
Pazx, Town Cop, killed night 3, won posthumously.
LEF, Vanilla Townie, killed night 3, won posthumously.
HydroPimp, Mafia Goon (one-shot kill-immune), lynched day 4.

Welcome to Mafia, Urisk! You are Mario, Town Backup.

Passive ability:
Universal back-up: starring in a multitude of roles from doctor to sports star over the years, Mario’s versatility is sure to come in handy in mafia as well. You will gain the ability of the first town-aligned power role to die. You will be notified by PM when this happens.

Shoutouts to dean for the flavour. Ggs all mafia did play very well but got a little to impatient towards the end there. I do however agree that the investiagtion copy ability was quite high powered.

JLO: not much to say, like last time solid play
Wooy: you confirmed urself town with the Corvid Dillema and that was good. I was surprised u survived throughout the game being vig.

Shoutouts time:

Laggy: You were so excited about finally playing, but once the game started you just... sucked. Getting lynched day 1 cost your faction majorly, and in the future, I hope this will be a learning experience for you if you ever want to play again.

Deez: Similar deal with Laggy, I feel you should've participated more in the discussions to help your faction, and hope you'll learn from this to become a better Mafia player.

cAKE: You did well in participating during the day phases, although idk what to say about unwittingly yourself as a VT haha. Well played man.

Atyeo: To be completely honest, the guy that Aero was talking about finding you a bit abrasive was me. I had a read through of the thread again, and realised it was just me being butthurt about you calling out my incompetence within the game (which was definitely true), so I apologise for that.

Also reading through the thread again, I realised that you're actually the fking MVP of the game. You instructed town to think about our circumstances in a logical and rational manner, and not to jump to conclusions. You also pinpointed the Aero/Invisi scum team, ON DAY 2 NO LESS HOLY SHIT. I could learn a lot from your plays this game, and I hope I can be as good of a townie as you someday.

Corvid: Same deal with Laggy and Deez, I was hoping you'd make more use of your role and not just simply stall for time. Bad luck getting an anti-town role 2 games in a role tho :S

Pazx THE HOMIE: You kept discussion going for town and just kept on being a constant stream of information. It was a pleasure playing with you man. Well done on the Cop role for the second time in a row (kek). It's just unfortunate you had to go the way you did :o

LEF: I'm afraid you have started a worrying trend my man. In honour of that, I hereby name the act of SDing when you're a stock down in your final stock at ~150% "the LEF"

Hydropimp: I was gonna comment on how horrible that fake Cop claim was lol, but after reading the Discord chat I'd like to say well played for your first game. You did your part well for the Mafia, and trading your life for Pazx's (under instructions) was a good play.

Wooy: EBOLA BACK THROW BOYZZZZZ. Aero said that your kill shots were on point, so I guess that means he thinks you played well. I think so too man, good game well played.

Maribro: ur alright i guess





... :P
Well played overall homie. Despite suggesting questionable plays throughout the game, you lived long enough to make an impact during the late game, and it was great bouncing off ideas with you during the day phases. It was a pleasure.

Barrydahiddendocter: I'm glad you didn't take our suggestion of you to come out, you were making clutch plays in the shadows. GGs

Windkeeper0: KIRBY OP PLS NERF. As like last game, solid play.

Urisk: You don't know how many times during that game I wanted to get you lynched. Lying about your power role was hella suss and the town didn't need someone like that moving forward. Still, you managed to pull through for town so well done.

Invisi: From town MVP to town public enemy #1, who would have thought? The way you posted the entire game for me was not indicative of either faction, so it was really hard for me to get a solid read off you. It was thanks to the other town members and unfortunate circumstances (LOL2COPS) that made the game practically unloseable for town. Roleblocks were incredibly on point, really great job man, if the set-up was different idk how things would've gone

Aerodrome: DARK PIT THE GODFATHER HOLY SHIT. You and Invisi like, put in so much legwork in order to deceive all of us, only to be undone by in game mechanics. Tbh I really bought into your makeshift role LOL and I give it a 10/10. Other than that the way you baited out our cop for the strongman kill was some next level shit, and the way you made all of us constantly wary of your identities makes you and Invisi MVP. Now only if there weren't 2 cops...


If I can take away one important thing from this game, it's that I have learned that Mafia is a team game. This means that your goal is not to survive as long as possible, but to achieve your faction's win condition. I have seen the importance of being a team player, from sacrificing your life for a good trade, to just contributing as much as you can to the discussion. I believe that no one person can win the game by themselves, and if I can offer one piece of advice, please don't try and be a herocoughuriskcough. Offer as much as you can to your team.

When Pazx and Atyeo, two of our strongest town players, got shot by Mafia, I knew I had to step up my game for my team. Before that I was needlessly being hasty and nonsensical, so I had to dial it down and think in a more logical manner. If not for the efforts of everyone in town, I think we would've arrived in the same conclusion that we did.

GGs to the mafia, they've put up one hell of a fight, it's a shame that we got two cops at the end LOL

Invisi said:
So, it looks like there's been a fair amount going on so far that I've missed, but nothing has actually happened.

I forget who mentioned it last game, but I remember someone said that the optimal day 1 strategy would be to lynch whoever we feel would make the most useless townsperson. Since we have no way of anyone knowing who could be mafia on day 1, that's really all we have to go off.

Also I know the option of a no-lynch was written off last game, but presumably there are more special townies this game, so maybe that could be another option to try to gather some more information? It may still be a bad idea, but I figured I'd throw it out there since I thought of it.
Oh yea, Dean, are you going to tell us how many mafia there are or are you going to be silent like last game?

lol everyone calling me an MVP player, what? I didn't do anything except tell people not to think in stupid ways.

Also the only "I think X player is mafia" I did was aero on day 1, hard reads.

Also if I toned down being me than I wouldn't be me and who would want to live in that world?
aero and invisi played that pretty well though, to the point where they felt suspicious, but nothing you could put your finger on so you just kinda second guess yourself and end up not really focusing on them at all.
also dean made me samus, why give me low tier :'<
When you get asked to tone it down by the same guy who called everyone retarded and posted this

Aerodrome said:The Bad:
ThatLaggyPerson: You're actually the worst player at this game in the universe. Thanks for literally killing yourself day 1, all you had to do was shut your mouth and not post anywhere but you still couldn't even do that. You have a fundamental misunderstanding of the game, please don't bother entering the next one.


Also big shout out for dean for putting in the effort to run this so fantastically and doing lots of cool shit
I think the one thing we can all agree on though and learn from this game (with the exception of maribro) is that the doctor play that was constantly pushed for was AWFUL and BAD and if you cant see that then whatever, but please nobody ever push for that shit, it was so painful to watch.

Its also pretty crazy how people seemed to just not follow some of the most basic guidelines like...

Lurking makes you look anti town (whether through being a mafia or just being a useless town) so be ACTIVE or people will want to kill you?

Trying to force a play thats really good for the mafia (like revealing the doctor) is bad no matter what your intentions are (if you are town) so dont be surprised when people target you despite how much you were trying to help.

when you are targeted DEFEND YOURSELF, if you are a town you need to make sure the town isnt killing other town members in order to win, so DEFEND YOURSELF to stop them from making a mistake and posting stuff like, 'oh I tried haha go ahead and kill me I cant wait for you to see how WRONG you are' is awful and means you are a bad player, so dont do it, defend yourself to the bitter end.
If you are a MAFIA, you want to try and appear to be TOWN no matter what, so you want to make it look like you are doing things that are good for the TOWN, so the above applies to you too, defend yourself to the end.

DON'T KILL YOURSELF

Seriously like everything in this game was someone just giving up and killing themselves until eventually one team just gave up and forfeited lol.
Awful plays.

Atyeo, I agree actually and have learnt from that mistake. That was a bad play. The doctor knew nothing basically the whole game and my pushing for it was a bad idea that the mafia actually wanted. If you read day 4 I actually made it very clear that I didn't want the doctor to even be acknowledged as a possibility of being in the game so that I could try and prolong his life.

Game was good dean. Imo town had it won anyway but windy being able to copy abilities is definitely busted. Having read a quick bit of the moderating FAQ/suggestions it says to ensure you can't make broken combos. If windy had been visited by barry at all we would have had 2 doctors over the course of this game :/
