Dragonator Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 As I said earlier, a very good effort JimBee. You made an interesting and fun game to follow which I enjoyed right through to the end, even though I was dead. I would agree with a few that the balance was probably a bit off, further heightened by the success of the town on the first day in particular, but overall it was very well produced and definitely worthy of going in my index. Plus, it's nice to have a town victory every now and then, isn't it? Since everyone is posting their roles, I'll post mine too: Dragonator Welcome to Werewolf Mafia! Before you begin game play, please make sure that you have read up on rules (there have been rules added and changed to the traditional Eurobrick's mafia rules). Your character is as follows: Dacius Nathans - Village - Thief In this game of wits and strategy, you'll be playing Dacius Nathans. You are a bobby (police officer) of the Blackwood police force, and it is your duty to protect the citizens of the village. However, while your intentions are good, you like to use your authority to confiscate items from others that may help you. As a Thief, you can target one person each night to steal an item from. You will not know what the item is until you get it, but it may be useful. Your action will fail if you target someone that does not have an item. You may also give someone an item you stole, or use it yourself. You may give one item, and steal 1 item, per night. You win when all factions besides town are eradicated. Please use the included character picture as your avatar (or include it in your signature) for the duration of the game. You must also include your character name in your sig. Please confirm your participation in the Discussion and Confirmation thread. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding your role, otherwise ask any general questions in the Discussion thread. Good luck, and have fun. JimButcher I would have liked to have had a chance to use my role, it is a slightly more unusual one which I've never had before. By the way JimBee, I blame you for my death on night one, I always seem to die early in your games! Plus that time you killed me instead of converting me like Shadows suggested in Noir. Yeah, good times. I'll have a couple of announcements to make shortly, stay tuned people.
Shadows Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Sorry. I love you. I know, even if I don't always feel like it's true. I'll never hear the end. I know. Count on that. And we won Noir together. So, it doesn't always happen. I love playing with you and I always learn a lot. Thanks. You're a good player and a good friend and I mean both. Plus, you're an awesome admin and an asset to the site. You shall only get such an ego boost when I wrongfully kill you. But, it's all true, regardless... I wish we could've won together this time. So sorry. Well sure, I converted you to scum late in Noir and you never had a chance to "coordinate" things as you like to do in these. As for the rest... you've got applesauce on your chin.
def Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I guess suspicious wasn't the right word in your case. I saw you as a threat. The small logical statements you made in the day threads were beginning to point in my direction. If I remember correctly, you wanted to examine the last people to vote for Zed, one of whom was me. I didn't honestly know you were a Rogue. Take it as a compliment. I wish I could have worked with the Rogues but I had no way of investigating, so I couldn't find you guys. If Rufus had found me on a kill night, it could have worked though. Bummer. My strategy was to play an aggressive anti-werewolf game, and I tried to chime in with good strategy in thread. I was hoping to have echoes left over from Bloodbrick, and I was modeling my play on Zepher from that game, a vanilla town not working in the main group, but alive til the end. That's also why we recruited QM, thinking he wouldn't get harassed for not being active this time around. As for working together, there was no easy way to do that, on either side. If I thought Zepher had actually been a werewolf, I might have contacted him to work together, but I figured he was innocent. If only...
Fugazi Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Vanilla Would've liked to see a bit more participation from you, but not too bad. You survived, so... I admit I kept a low profile. I wasn't sure how to play in a context where most players appeared to have night actions, so I tried to make myself sound like just slightly scummy so I wouldn't look like an easy night kill target, without outright lying about having an action. I'm not sure that helped, but it did attract some attention, and it probably was a toss of the coin on which vanilla townie the vigilante would kill on night 4! I still had some delusional hopes about having a hidden action, like paranoid gun owner or bomb, so in a way I hoped that someone would target me to test it out! In retrospect I'm lucky that no one did !
Rick Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 JimB, are you going to post an overview of night actions? It might be helpful to add this, together with everyone's role to the opening post. It makes it really easy to find when you want to review past games (def did this as well for Bloodbrick ).
Alopex Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) I wish you would've participated more, and also asked me to clarify your role if you were unsure of it. However, you played well for your first game, and seemed to know the ins and outs of it pretty well. Sorry about the night action mess up. I didn't talk to much because: a) I didn't have anything intelligent to ad to the conversation. b) After Hinckley became suspicious of me, I was afraid he try to get me lynched for any misunderstanding... The next time I play a game, I'll be more active, and self-confident. Edited February 28, 2011 by Alopex
Walter Kovacs Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Congratulations to the winners. Hinck played a fantastic game. 5 scum out of 7 convictions has to be some sort of record (ignoring Witch Hunt, of course ) Walter Knox - Village - Angel In this game of wits and strategy, you'll be playing Walter Knox. You are the local librarian. You spend every day checking books in and out to local villagers, organizing books, and running a business. And you love it. You are a well-liked member of the town, and you enjoy the company of others. As such, you feel it is your duty to protect those that you care about. Each night, you may target one person to protect from harm. You win when all factions besides the Village are eradicated. Given my important night action, I thought I'd play the game a little more low key than I did in Eurodina or Bloodbrick. It didn't work. That changed when Hinck sent me a PM titled: You are a Night Killer Werewolf After that, I worked closely with Hinckley, trying to earn his trust and prove my innocence. Alas, somehow the Rogues found out about my job (or just had a lucky guess). The only people I told my action to were Hinck, iamded, Eskallon and Lord Arjay, all of whom were townies. So I made no major gaffs there. Like I said in the discussion thread, I have no regrets about how I played, and would play it the same way if similar circumstances arose. Nicely played. Starting night 1, you came really close to changing the game every night until you died. First, the Rogues tried to convert you, then kill you, and then kill you again, finally successful Reading that, it sounds like the Rogues found my night action through investigation. Or they just got really lucky Night 2, when I was apparently protected, and decided I was important enough to try to kill again on Night 3. Ah well, my death was completely out of my control this time. Such is life.
Alopex Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 You are a Night Killer Werewolf Hinckley really liked to send messages like that. I got this one: You are a liar. They are short, and rather shocking when you see them first...
Hinckley Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Reading that, it sounds like the Rogues found my night action through investigation. Or they just got really lucky Night 2, when I was apparently protected, and decided I was important enough to try to kill again on Night 3. It sounds like they tried to convert you and when they couldn't they knew that you had a night action. That's probably what happened.
Mrlegoninja Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I wanted to ask this. Hinckley, was there any reason why everything was centered around sluts and Cleavage? And how did it become the "Slut Mafia"?
Alopex Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Just look at Harriet... I tried to stay clean...
Hinckley Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 I admit I kept a low profile.

I still had some delusional hopes about having a hidden action, like paranoid gun owner or bomb, so in a way I hoped that someone would target me to test it out! In retrospect I'm lucky that no one did ! You did really great responding in private and helping out once we started contacting you. Since iamded and Flitwick were both villagers with night action there was high suspicion that you were scum. You were a prime candidate for a lynch, but you convinced me you were vanilla townie and helped with some great strategies. So if your participation seemed low in the threads, I thought it was great in private. Jim, I apologize if you've already answered this, but why the hell was Rick a Neutral? I'm trying to understand why hosts add so many neutrals these days and I just don't understand why he would be. Thanks.
Rick Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Reading that, it sounds like the Rogues found my night action through investigation. Or they just got really lucky Night 2, when I was apparently protected, and decided I was important enough to try to kill again on Night 3. I thought they tracked you night 1 (found out you had a night action), tried to kill edit: convert you night 2 (def got killed by Inky) and then finally succeeded in killing you night 3. I found you night 1 when you targeted Eskallon who had been blabbing about his night action and was an obvious target for many people. You and Inky targeted him. I thought one of you might be a killer or scum blocker, but turns out you were both protecting him that night. edit: My night actions: night 1: watch Eskallon. Targeted by Inky (bodyguard) and Walter Kovacs (protect) night 2: watch Arjay. Targeted by Hinckley (protect), Shadows (investigate), and Walter Kovacs (protect, we were testing Kovacs) night 3: watch iamded. Targeted by Walter Kovacs (protect) and Professor Flitwick (investigate, testing Flitwick) night 4: watch Hinckley. Targeted by Inky (bodyguard) night 5: watch Inky. I died (testing Alopex)
def Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 It sounds like they tried to convert you and when they couldn't they knew that you had a night action. That's probably what happened. Yes, he was unrecruitable, so he was put on the kill-list. Here is a look into our workings, the Rogue Writeboard, helpful in throwing any psycho Internet stalkers off our trails, though not 100% successful. http://123.writeboard.com/fy45cgzv8u2017eq password: scummy Not overly exciting, but maybe of interest to some. I thought they tracked you night 1 (found out you had a night action), tried to kill you night 2 (def got killed by Inky) and then finally succeeded in killing you night 3. I was disappointed that my night two kill didn't go through. It's the judgment of the host, but in my game, the kills were the last to 'occur' at night, so they all could go through, like when Sandy killed Roncanator, and was then killed by Deddy. No big deal, but I would have liked my kill to go through.
Hinckley Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Yes, he was unrecruitable, so he was put on the kill-list.

Thank you. I loved reading it.

Well of course that's what happened. Any idiot can see that. It just proves that I'm not just any idiot.
Hinckley Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Well of course that's what happened. Any idiot can see that. It just proves that I'm not just any idiot. Didn't you PM a bunch of people proposing I was scum and coming after you next?
Rufus Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Ah well, my death was completely out of my control this time. Such is life. I killed you. Sowwy. My night actions: Night One: track Hinck (he did something) Night Two: track Sandy ('You wait outside his room, and wait, and wait... he does not leave') Night Three: track TinyPies (he did something); Kill Walter Night Four: track Alopex (he did something); kill Shadows (again, Sowwy!) Night Five: track Fugazi ('You find out he doesn't have a night action'); kill Rick (really really Sowwy) My only hope after losing Bob was that the Town wouldn't figure I had two night actions, and test my tracker ability, which I told the absolute truth about; and then I had to take out the investigators. 50% success there! My character: Rufus Welcome to Werewolf Mafia! Before you begin game play, please make sure that you have read up on rules (there have been rules added and changed to the traditional Eurobrick's mafia rules). Your character is as follows: Ruben Roland - Rogues - Spy In this game of wits and strategy, you'll be playing Ruben Roland. You are a teacher at the town's school, but are not so virtuous as you have taught your students. You have become interested in a life of crime, in order to make money at the cost of others. In times of need, you will not hesitate to sacrifice another for the cause of your own survival. Which is why you've associated yourself with similar-minded people, who include: Daniel O'Donnell (def). Killer. Benjamin Cobb (Bob the Construction Man). Turner. To help the cause of your team, you have the ability to spy on, or track, one person each night to determine if they have a night action or not. Their specific action will not be specified. You win when you and your team outnumber all other factions. Please use the included character picture as your avatar (or include it in your signature) for the duration of the game. You must also include your character name in your sig. Please confirm your participation in the Discussion and Confirmation thread. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding your role, otherwise ask any general questions in the Discussion thread. Good luck, and have fun. JimButcher
Alopex Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Night Four: track Alopex (he did something) Thats when I worked out that I can use it every night... I targeted Admiral Ron. Edited February 28, 2011 by Alopex
Admiral Ron Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Warrior (Bomb with a twist) - If lynched, took down the final voter with him. Not effective against night kills.Again, would've like to see more posts out of you, but I suppose you kept under the radar. I don't understand why you would reveal your ability without under the pressure of a lynch, but I suppose you didn't want to become a target of Hinckley's Considering I did not have any night actions, I could not contribute as well as I thought I would. By the time I think of a good strategy, Hinckley and his Crusaders already came up with it about 2 hours before! As for revealing my role to Hinckley, I did that because of the many mistakes I made in reading his God-forsaken plays. I just could not keep track on who was who in those things. I did not want to end up dead during the night or take down a townie during the day in the case I would be convicted. Considering I did not want either of those to happen, I just tried to stay under the radar until I could find some allies. Then Hinckley told my role to a bunch of people and seemingly tried to have me killed.
Hinckley Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Then Hinckley told my role to a bunch of people and seemingly tried to have me killed. Yeah, I did. It's a good thing it didn't work because apparently you wouldn't have exploded, anyway. So we would have put all that work in and not seen people explode. Even if you would've "gone off" with a night killer, you wouldn't have detonated, you would've just stabbed... What kind of bomb stabs?
Alopex Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Then Hinckley told my role to a bunch of people As I already knew about the Winston Churchill name, he didn't have to tell me!
Rufus Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 As I already knew about the Winston Churchill name, he didn't have to tell me! Winston was one of the few pseudonyms I guessed correctly - I just thought, 'who's bald? Ah, that'll be Ron, then!' Then Hinck changed the codename to Gallagher, for whatever reason
Hinckley Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 Winston was one of the few pseudonyms I guessed correctly - I just thought, 'who's bald? Ah, that'll be Ron, then!' Then Hinck changed the codename to Gallagher, for whatever reason Because I forgot Archie was bald.
Alopex Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Then Hinck changed the codename to Gallagher, for whatever reason As we are talking about codenames, Hinckley left a hint, so anybody could work out Little Bunny Foo-Foos identity. The title of the play about me was: The Case of the Cleavage Jealousy Did anybody see this hint? And actually, were does Little Bunny Foo-Foo come from? I don't remember foo-fooing anybody...
