Stargate SG-1 Mafia- Game OVER! BUT WHO WON!?

[Battle Mage]

ah it begins.

Vote: DeanWinchester

[Battle Mage]

Ancalagon, you have to VOTE FOR HIM to start a bandwagon... lol

[Battle Mage]

take it back NAW!

[Battle Mage]

ah how can i be mad at someone from an awesome tv show? (even if he is always scum)

Unvote, Vote: DYH

vote: DYH

He is a very scary man.

[Battle Mage]

no, only wierdos call her that...

...wait. *looks at gender* your name is bob?

[Battle Mage]

i agree that it is interesting, but not greatly concerning considering the numbers.
BM

Unvote: DYH

Even with these numbers I am leary of random bandWaggons. Interesting so many poeple jumped on it.

@DYH: Yep.

Also@DYH: You are still scary.

[Battle Mage]

lol dont exaggerate. of those votes, only the last was anything near suspicious, as until that time, it was an insignificant wagon in the context of the game.
BM

Well...that was something of a big Bandwagon. Let's see..Pollux, XYZZY, and Johhan...why did you do that?

[Battle Mage]

i expect that the offworld players havent got roles yet, and as such, when they are introduced, roles will probably allocated in order to balance the game i.e. if we kill alot of scum early on, the new players are likely to be scum, whereas if the town starts badly, i expect them to be more protown.
BM

[Battle Mage]

unvote, vote: pancakemix

i find your trying to put suspicion on a reasomable act, quite suspicious.

[Battle Mage]

QFT

I'm in a game full of nerds....

Dont worry, Im completely lost too. Never seen stargate in my life.

[Battle Mage]

can we have a votecount please?

[Battle Mage]

ok cheers.
i was a bit wary of voting for him, as i didnt want to put him too close to lynch, but i thought his post 71 was opportunistic.
now a couple ppl have unvoted, there is room for me to hop on.

Unvote, Vote: Johhan

I believe johhan has 7 votes at the moment, BM.

[Battle Mage]

we need a vote count. MOD????

[Battle Mage]

i agree with Elias totally on this.
Albert, why not read the thread yourself, and make your own judgements?

@Johhan-you MAY be allowed, as long as your comment doesnt actually reveal anything in that game which could spoil it.
You should probably pm the mod and ask.
BM

um. rampage. stop trying to sound town by asking other people to contribute. If you want us to agree on a person, how bout you suggest someone and post a case? Im not ready to agree on one person yet, and bandwagons are the way to get reactions so as to get a read on people.

fos: albert

stop trying to end day 1 discussion, and stop trying to control the town.

[Battle Mage]

thats odd. strikes me as potential scum trying to link himself to a townie.
However his scumminess is incomparable to Johhan's.
anyone not voting for Johhan, should give a reason for not doing so, so we can ensure that we lynch the right guy.
BM

My interpretation of Lowell's post is pure, pure sarcasm.

My interepretation of Albert's post is that's it's completely unhelpful to town, regardless of what side he's on.

[Battle Mage]

my main reason for Johhan being scum, is his unashamed opportunism early in the game...
Post 71 really clinched it for me. Im happy to apply some more pressure to him atm.
BM

Is there a case on johhan other than scum giving up? Seriously speaking... I don't think the scum giving up scum-tell is applicable on page 6 with a 24/30 player game.

I'm voting for johann because he did something I found suspicious, and because I was confident that he wouldn't reach enough votes to lynch so early- still am confident in that, actually. No way are we going to end the day so soon. I just want to apply some pressure to johann- so far, I haven't been that impressed with the results. 'I'm new' is valid enough, but only up to a point. There's no rule that a player can't be both new and scum.

[Battle Mage]

the votes on Albert are only serving to make me MORE sure of Johhan being scum. the wagon is stalling, and apparently scum are trying to get a competing wagon on a protown player. vote count?

[Battle Mage]

time for a claim Johhan?

[Battle Mage]

i agree, but i was thinking more along the lines that with so many scum, 3 from lynch isnt safe. Ive never encountered a double-voting role. Are they really likely in this game?
BM

That's ten votes.

@Metatron whether you think the lynch is valid or not is moot.
It is time to claim considering that in a game this size there will probably be a double
voter of some kind.

[Battle Mage]

huh?
how does the wolfsbane bit work again?
id like to get that cleared up before you are lynched.

Unvote

time for a claim Johhan?

I suppose it is...

Ok, i'll tell you. You ready to hear it?

...

...

I'm an inexperienced newbie, AND I'm mafia, AND I'm a wolvesbane. You know, so just in case one of my own tries to kill me, I can get them instead. Oh, AND I'm an investigator.

[Battle Mage]

Vote: Johhan

now i know we under no risk of lynching a power role, i think Johhan is definitely the play for today.
BM

*sighs and smacks himself in the head* Ok... mafia's a more serious game here than i thought...

As for my claim- i'm only the first part of it, the inexperienced newbie townie who's about to get lynched :p

[Battle Mage]

not necessarily, a doule-voter can give the town an extra day to have a shot at lynching

Actually, now that I think of it, a double voter helps the scum alot more than the town. interesting...

[Battle Mage]

It seems that your vote is already there.

I'll be moving my vote over to Johhan once we're ready for day to end.

[Battle Mage]

FOS: Pollux

its pretty simple. if you think Johhan is scum, hammer him. If you arent convinced by the case provided, don't. Your fishing for town approval seems scummy...
besides, your question is answered by the fact that 12 people are currently wanting him to be lynched. it tells you that, not EVERYONE wants him dead, but a significant number do.

Do we want to vote him now? Johann seems bad to me, but i wont hammer unless you all want the day to end as well

[Battle Mage]

thats a good point, though it ought to be noted that a significant proportion of players do not know jack about Stargate...

I'd like to see johhan name-claim as well. In a theme game the ability to break the game and ID the mafia through a mass name-claim is always something that mods design to avoid. Be interesting to be able to see if the scum have safe claims provided, or if they claim random flunkies, or whatever. johhan's claiming like someone trying to avoid giving their real role (e.g. scum), and if he continues to not give his name then just hammer and be done with it, but the type of name he claims could come in handy.

In other news, I will be away until the 24th. I expect most of that time is going to end up being night anyway.

[Battle Mage]

i dont this the death of TCS really tells us alot. thats probably why the mafia chose him.
my suspicions today amount to: Pollux. A belated hammer in an obvious attempt to get some townie points. the fact it was on scum, is even worse than bussing, as the vote meant nothing.

Vote: Pollux

[Battle Mage]

why not Pollux?

That's a pretty good argument...

Hmm. So far, I could be convinced to lynch the following people: Albert, Metatron, theopor.

[Battle Mage]

well of the 3, only Alberts is placed with anything less than solid reasoning. 3 votes at this isnt a big problem. it wouldnt stop you placing the 3rd vote on Metatron eh?

[Battle Mage]

would the flavour support 2 scumgroups? (i know zilch about Stargate)

[Battle Mage]

exactly. can i ask the replacements, did you get your pm as soon as the game started, or only during last night?
Im asking this because i get the strong impression, if the latter is true, the new arrivals roles will be distributed in order to make the game more equal. in light of yesterdays success, i feel that there is a good chance of 1 of our new arrivals being scum. something to look out for i think...

I've been thinking that the later arrivals might be Orii, though. It fits, and it makes logical sense as to why they haven't been mentioned flavor-wise already.

[Battle Mage]

well, rereading his posts, i do find it scummy how he changes from:
"i dont want to lynch him" to "his claim makes me even MORE suspicious".
On the other hand, i dont find him nearly as scummy as Pollux, who i still think is a good play for today.

[Battle Mage]

cheers for the VC. at least you are helpful scum

[Battle Mage]

Pollux:

1. Please cut the talk about shagging canines. its inappropriate, and some of us arent into the hardcore stuff.
2. If you know the identity of 1 scumbag, ffs tell us!

[Battle Mage]

hmm. can someone else verify whether this fits with the flavour?
if it does, im inclined to believe it. hopefully we have a doc who can protect you tonight.

[Battle Mage]

rofl. why the hell wouldnt i want to direct the docs attention to this?
its the aim of the scum to mislead the doc into not noticing such a claim. assuming the doc DOES notice, the scum are left in a quandry of who to vote for. me ensuring that is the case, isnt in any way scummy.
BM

[Battle Mage]

in light of Pollux's recent play, im alot less suspicious of him. First, he has been very conservative with his vote. i would expect a scumbag to retaliate hard on 1 of his waggoners, but he has continued to act in a protown manner.
ive also just realised the weakness of the case against him. it was only a couple bad posts yesterday that made me vote, and its probably not enough for a lynch.
I'll

Unvote

while i look for who else looked scummy yesterday.
BM

[Battle Mage]

Metatron, eithet you or I, are badly misinterpreting what a safe-claim is.
imo, a safe claim is a claim given to scum, so they can fit in. in this case, ANY claim could be a safe claim.
BM

Janet's super obvious. And not a safeclaim, it'd definitely be counterclaimed. I'll eat my hat if Janet isn't in this game. And she was never Goa'uld possessed or anything so she shouldn't be a safe scum claim. If someone claimed Kawalsky, I'd be skeptical.

Exactly. Trust me. As a fan of the Show, if Janet isn't in the game, It well..it just wouldn't happen. And It's only slightly less likely that she's not the main doc. It's extremely obvious. It's far from a safe claim.

[Battle Mage]

guys sorry, but im a bit busy with exams atm. ill post soon. IOU 1 reread and comments.

[Battle Mage]

cripes this game needs alot of rereading. :O
ill get to it over the next couple of days, seeing as tomorrow is my LAST EXAM!

[Battle Mage]

hey guys. i owe you a reread here, but it would be significantly easier if you could summarise for me any important events that have occured. a vote count would also be nice.
thanks
BM

[Battle Mage]

We're at night now. I prefer not to talk.

night!?
did Pollux get lynched?
and if so, WHY?

[Battle Mage]

oh. well last thing i recall about this game, we'd just had a Pollux wagon, but it deteriorated because he actually started to look innocent.
I didnt think he was scum last time i checked, but i hope im wrong.

[Battle Mage]

lol gives me a chance to reread at least :p

[Battle Mage]

I didn't expect that the thread had opened... *twitches*

Woot, two down, however many to go.

I'm suspecting much scum on Pollux wagon.

well not a bad night all in all. I agree with PBug though. I'd very much like to see a vote count for the end of yesterday if CDB finds time.

also, does anyone know the logic behind the order in which new players are coming in? All i know is, its not numerical, and that struck me as odd...

[Battle Mage]

Ok then, Streeflo. Did you know why?

Because it said so in my role pm? Is this some sort of trick question...

no.
we're trying to work out the reason behind the order of incoming players.
i may have asked this before, but did you recieve ur role pm when the game actually started, or just before you were due to replace in?

If it is the latter, it is possible that the order of incoming players is dependant on what has happened up till that point, with the possible intention of balancing the game.

BM

[Battle Mage]

My point is that what we were told was not a scum lie, because there was a consensus about it among the new players.

Do you not think it's possible they are lieing?

that would require them all to be scum, which is very unlikely.
Metatron is right, assuming none of the new entrants say otherwise, it is likely that what they say is true.

FOS: Theo

for trying to flog a dead horse

[Battle Mage]

Seperately does anyone think Rosso's daykill on Occult, resulted in his possible delayed death? I think Rosso looks pretty town because of it whatever.

Now im really lost. I though Occult was killed by NK?

[Battle Mage]

Meta thing is we don't know do we anything about em? They should not be cleared for any reason at all yet.

BM I have no idea who killed Occult, do you? Rosso's supposed dayvig/joke was on Occult I'm pondering whether it's possibly a delayed reaction kill.

Seperately we could really do with everyone chiming in here, this game needs a kickstart and posting is the best way to get that to happen, some ppl have yet to post since Day 3 kicked off.

Prods be nice CDB/CES?

no i dont either lol. I simply wondered why you would think a guy who died at night would be associated with a DayVig...
could you link me to the post that Rosso made that comment?

BM

[Battle Mage]

thats odd. i could've sworn he claimed to have killed

Albert

guess im losing it...

[Battle Mage]

lol there was no need to post that twice...

[Battle Mage]

:O Streeflo is lurking! :p

[Battle Mage]

hmm even so, i did get a town vibe from Rafk. will need to validate your points.

[Battle Mage]

can somebody please tell me whether they have EVER seen DYH use traps before to catch scum?
i generally dislike it as a practice, as often it simply makes you look like backtracking scum.

FOS: DYH

unless you can show me another example of you doing this, that will become a vote.

Oh there's no doubt that case was a bunch of bollocks; interestingly enough, people hopped on board.

You absolutely started the wagon on Johann, and even as ruthless as you are as scum, Raf, I think post 72 is a little early to have realized just how awful he was and deliberately toss him under the bus.

Unvote

FoS: PBug and Dean Winchester

until I have enough time to go back and read their content to determine which one to vote.

[Battle Mage]

Well, BM, considering that RafK himself has unvoted me, I would think that should be sufficient.

@Raf: Well, to be frank, I wasn't exactly counting on you to provide a counter-case on me, simply a rebuttal. :p

hardly. In fact, that logic alone warrants a

Vote: DYH

maybe now you will answer my question?

[Battle Mage]

1) I believe that RafK's defense is valid.
2) I do not like DYH's response.

DYH could have been trying to frame RafK. When RafK responded, and it became apparent that DYH was frame, he said it was a so-called trap.

vote: DYH

thats what i was thinking. However with hindsight, my vote was probably a bit hasty. Regardless of DYH's affiliation, Dean and PBug look very scummy. Generally they both look kinda naturally scummy to me, but i'd rather see a Dean lynch, in light of his response to DYH's last post. I also dislike Cavane trying to give him an excuse.

Unvote, Vote: DeanWinchester

[Battle Mage]

EBWODP: Oh, and BM, I got to thinking about your question again, and if you look at the game I referenced (Wheel of Time on 'News), I had an information role of sorts (a dreamer who received random game setup or player action information without names), and withheld said information a couple times, pouncing on it by drawing out related data. I'd consider that trapping. As far as pulling this stunt, nah, this is a new one.

well to be fair, it appears to have worked.

[Battle Mage]

@sVanDamien: I trusted DYH's oppinion and ran with it. I usually don't check poeples points unless I have a reason to believe their stretching the truth. And I know DYH's logic is really solid, unparently unless he is trying to trap poeple.

I didn't see you trying to start conversation.

HELLO? This is mafia we are playing here. the whole game is founded on the fact that some people AREN'T to be trusted.
If you are town Dean, you really need to work on your game philosophy. As it stands, i think you are scum, trying to play the newbie card.

[Battle Mage]

@BM: WTF? How am I playing a newbie card?

@Theopor: So you don't like how I made a choice to trust DYH and follow his logic? Everytime you vote somebody based off points other players brought up, isin't that making a choice to trust them? How is that any different than what I did? Not to mention I specifically choose to follow a player I know to be very competent. Your argument against me seems very flimsy and opurtunistic.

When somebody simply follows someone elses coat-tails, then when they get caught out, at like they were an innocent noob who just wasn't concentrating, that's the newbie card.

[Battle Mage]

What's the case against Dean? For echoing other people.

I'd understand if there was a vote on Dean because of this, but I'm really not liking the vote pileup. I know we're still far from lynch, but other people are also echoing the same suspicion of Dean, hence committing the same scum-tell.

err no. the original scumtell was that Dean joined a BW, when the info for joining it was complete BS. The votes on Dean are because he has actually committed that scumtell.

[Battle Mage]

Because they're taken out of context and DYH himself admitted they were rubbish?

This, and the fact that RafK has given me a strong protown vibe since Day 1.

[Battle Mage]

i think CDB got back recently, so he should be around.

[Battle Mage]

I'm here, still up for playing.

[Battle Mage]

I cannot, my apologies.

you cannot play?
whyever not?

BM

[Battle Mage]

CES, can you do me a favour? If for some reason, we need a significant amount of replacements, which you cannot acquire, send me the list of people who need replacing. I have an idea of how we can fill the slots and get this game up and running again.

BM

[Battle Mage]

right guys, i'm sure you all know now what is happening. CDB has left indefinitely, and CES thought the game would be best left abandoned. Well i disagree. So, I am now going to mod this game to a finish (or until CDB gets back).

First to tackle the replacements issue:

Toolenduso replaces Spectrumvoid
JordanA24 replaces PBuG
Vollkan replaces TrustGossip
BobbyPlump replaces DYH
The Fonz replaces Battle Mage
Tarhalindur replaces N9V
Distad replaces Primate
Albert B Rampage (the 2nd) replaces Metatron
Erg0 (the 2nd) replaces DeanWinchester

It is assumed that everyone else is quite happy to continue playing. My policy for this game will be to replace as far as possible, but, failing that, i will implement modkills. I'd rather see this game end in a flurry of Moderator-related deaths, than not see it end atall.

I will send role pms out to the new players now. I will also send a prod to all original players, reminding them that the game is back up and running.

When i unlock the thread, the game will continue in Day 3. The vote count has reset itself.

And finally, it just remains for me to say:

ENJOY!

BM

[Battle Mage]

right, all pms have been sent. It is now Day 3. With 21 of you alive and present, 11 votes are required to lynch.

Good Luck to all.

BM

[Battle Mage]

great, another one to replace. lol
Dont worry, i'll sort it.
BM

[Battle Mage]

MOD- Is the votecount going to be the same as the votecount before we restarted? Or is it a clean slate?

Due to the great number of new players, the votecount will be reset. On the other hand, since this day has already spanned a significant duration, i will set some kind of deadline on it, once everyone has had time to catch up and post content.

[Battle Mage]

VampanezeHunter hereby replaces Eteocles

[Battle Mage]

OMan replaces Streeflo, who replaced NaR

.

[Battle Mage]

Mod and the whole game: I appologise but I have just found out that I will be away for 4 days tomorrow! Would it be ok to have an extended leave for that time?

Yes, that is fine. 4 days absence is acceptable. Just catch up as soon as you get back.

[Battle Mage]

Page 10, and nothing really jumps out.

Albert was off colour early, but he was confirmed town upon death.

Is PBug still around, or did someone replace him or what?

check the OP. PBuG was replaced by JordanA24.

[Battle Mage]

hrm. is tonymontana in this still? Or is he being replaced?

TonyMontana has not requested replacement. If he is deemed inactive, he will be replaced, but currently he is still regarded as participating.

[Battle Mage]

Assuming i haven't already set a deadline here, there is now a deadline for today.
Day will end on the 9th September, at Midday GMT, if no majority is reached before that time. No majority, means no lynch.

Good Luck,

BM

[Battle Mage]

A loud crash stops the town in its tracks. A body is discovered-lifeless on the floor.

BobbyPlump (Jack O'Neill)- Vigilante has been Modkilled

You all decide that there is no time to mourn your friend, as there is a decision to be made. Who are the scum that you must apprehend?

BM

[Battle Mage]

Didn't see emphasis on red, but its a mistake the mod made.

Yeh sorry. Mod's are typically infallible, but as i am not the original mod, i guess i'm entitled to make mistakes.

[Battle Mage]

Aimee replaces YogurtBandit

[Battle Mage]

AlyG replaces VanDamien

[Battle Mage]

Destructor replaces TonyMontana

[Battle Mage]

The death of BobbyPlump had come as quite a shock to everyone, but there was more. Apparently a scuffle had broken out in the next room, as 2 people were lying on the floor. Neither way moving.

The first of this pair was

Ancalagon

. He had lots of notes in his pocket, but unfortunately, they were very difficult to read. The rest of his pocket contents was not so difficult however. His licence proved that he was indeed the local

Cop

.

Next the town searched the other body, which was equally lifeless. Yet, this corpse had an evil air about it. and rightfully so, as

Rosso Carne

had been murderous

scum

!

Ancalagon (Dr. Daniel Jackson)- Cop has been MODkilled.

Rosso Carne (Fifth Replicator)- Mafia Member has been MODkilled.

However, the town had little time to mull over the information these deaths might carry. With the entire town now active, it was time to get to work on lynching the person they felt was the scummiest.

12 votes to lynch.

This, as far as i can tell, is what the end of day vote count should have looked like, at the end of Day 2, when CES locked the thread. Technically, this means that Day 2 never actually ended, because Pollux only got as far as L-2.

But anyway, this took me half an hour, so i hope it's useful to you (other than to point out Mod error) lol.

[Battle Mage]

did we clear the votes (officially)?

And are you maintaining CDB's "no deadline majority = no lynch" policy?

I dont understand your first question. The answer to the second question is yes, because CDB's policy on that happens to be exactly the same as mine.

[Battle Mage]

BM - I had 12 votes on Pollux

Erg0 DeanWinchester DYH Ancalagon YoghurtBandit Albert B Rampage Streeflo theopor_COD Cavane Metatron Tony Montana RafK

I think the confusion lies in the fact that 2 of those votes are invalid.

TonyMontana did not unvote before casting his vote on Pollux.
Metatron did not use bold text for his vote. (i havent rechecked the rules on this one, but typically it is a requirement)

Good Night all,
BM

BM

[Battle Mage]

First off, sorry about the delay starting the day. I've just started College and i'm still adjusting to my new schedule.
Anyway, only choices made before the actual deadline are valid.

The residents of the base awoke to find that they were still 18 in number. So, no-one had died, right?
Wrong.
2 people had died at night. The first of these was Albert B Rampage, who had apparently been assorting his kitchen-ware last night, as he had several sharp knives buried in his torso.

Albert B. Rampage (Richard Woolsey)- Unsubtle Cop has been killed.

Another corpse lay on the floor, and this was the dead body of Rafk. Unlike Albert, he hadn't been up atall last night. Instead, he was fast asleep in the top-bunk when the pillow was held over his face.

Rafk (Jonas Quinn)- Vanilla Townie has been killed.

"So what was that rubbish about 18 players?"-i hear you cry. Well, just as 2 had left, 2 players had returned. Please give them both a warm welcome:

Nightson and DragonsofSummer join the game!

And with that, Jordan was lynched. He had claimed Bill Lee, but in fact this had been a lie. Jordan had in fact been a dastardly member of the Goa'Uld.

JordanA24 - Ba'Al, Goa'Uld has been lynched

The town rejoiced, then slept peacefully.

It is now Night 4. You have 72 hours to send choices in.

BM

[Battle Mage]

the 4th night at Stargate Command turned out to be the most bloody affair to date. Another 2 deaths had occured, but both were increasingly brutal.
The first of these bodies was that of

Nightson

. He had barely unpacked his bags before his untimely death.

Nightson- Jacob Carter, Vanilla Townie has been killed

The second body was that of an even newer face to the squad-but not because of his joining of the fight. AlyG-in a one-off appearance in the game, had given up his life for the benefit of the town.

AlyG- Heroic Guest Star, Martyr has been killed

And so, only half the original players remained. They sensed that every action was becoming more and more important, but time was still in short supply. They needed to apprehend the killers pronto if they hoped to save the SGC from the greatest threat it has ever known.

It is now Day 5. With 15 of you alive, it takes 8 votes to lynch.

BM

[Battle Mage]

AlyG's post after his death has been deleted, and he has been sent a formal warning discussing his breach of the rules. Unfortunately i cannot do erase his post from your minds (not YET anyway) but you're going to have to make do.

I apologise on behalf of AlyG for his actions.

And with that, the town decided to lynch Theopor_COD, who had evidently lied about his identity. Or had he?
They strung him up, and when he was dead, they unmasked him, only to find that he had been scum all along.

Theopor_COD-Sixth, Replicator has been killed

The town felt pretty heartened by the success of the day, but now it was night and they were all the more susceptible to the evil on board.

It is now Night 5. You have 70 hours to get night choices to me, but if all choices are in earlier, i will open the thread early.

BM

[Battle Mage]

Another night, another gallon of blood spilled. Two more of the remaining players bit the dust. The first of these was Edion0. Or should i say, Thor. Leader of the Asgard Fleet, he had come to save the SGC from deadly peril. Unfortunately it seems that he was a little too late, and as a result, met his untimely death.

Edion0-Thor, Vanilla Townie has been killed

This was of course, not a great continuation of the town's recent good luck, but the other death more than made up for it. The body of Distad, lay dying on the ground. He had been a Replicator, and as such, was shown no mercy.

Distad-Third, Replicator has been killed

So, not a bad night all-in-all. And now, with only 12 players left, those who remained were relatively confident about saving the SGC once more.

It is now Day 6. With 12 of you alive, it takes 7 votes to lynch.

After a day of intense interrogation, Lawrencelot was pooped. He had tried his best to prolong the inevitable, but time was not on his side. And neither was the town. He didn't stop struggling until he was dead.

Tarhalindur (Rep. N9V) - Setesh, Goa'Uld has been lynched.

The town felt happy. They thought it was all over. Much to their dismay, they learned that it had only just begun!

It is now Night 8. 48 hours for night choices again please.

Another successful lynch for the town, another bite in the backside overnight.
2 more people fell at the last hurdle. The first of these of

Whome?

, who had been hanging around, just waiting to be useful. Unfortunately, time was not his friend, and he perished.

Whome (Rep. VampanezeHunter, Eteocles) - Dr Carolyn Lam, Back Up Doc, has been killed.

The other body was the corpse of Jenter Brolincali, who had also tried his best to save the SGC. But he was not going to be around to see the finished product, and he died.

Jenter Brolincali (Rep. Xyzzy, Hmrox) - Cassandra Fraiser, Vanilla Townie, has been killed.

We have another contender for quickest lynch ever, i think! It didn't take long for the town to take the only logical course of action-lynching Aimee.

Unfortunately she had not been scum, and had in fact been trying to help the SGC.

Aimee (Rep. Pancakemix, YogurtBandit) - Colonel Chekhov, Vanilla Townie, has been lynched on Day 10.

Now only 3 of you remain. It is now Night 10. You have 48 hours to send any and all remaining choices to me. Good Luck.

BM

[Battle Mage]

The final night on the SGC. Only 3 remained, and none of them slept well. When day broke, only 2 remained alive.
DGB's body was found dead, by Oman and Vollkan, and they both knew what that meant...

DrippingGoofBall (Rep. Elias the Thief) - Dr Janet Frasier, Doctor, has been killed during Night 10.

Oman and Vollkan looked at each other. Oman knew this was a possibility, and had prepared. He attempted to flee the SGC, but was stopped by Vollkan, and mercilessly killed.

Oman (Rep. NowaRanger, Streeflo) - Vala Mal Doran, Switcher, has been killed in Endgame.

That left Vollkan. All on his lonesome, he controlled the SGC. And in case you didn't know his affiliation, here is confirmation:

Vollkan (Rep. TrustGossip, Superstring91) - RepliCarter, Replicator Godfather, SURVIVES, AND WINS!

REPLICATORS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mod notes pending.

BM

[Battle Mage]

Game Over, Folks!
I’d like to give a hearty congratulation to Vollkan, and the rest of the Replicators, for their hard-fought victory in the greatest episode of Stargate SG-1 EVER!
Now for the Mod comments on the game. My favourite part.
I can’t really comment about the Pre-takeover stuff, mainly because I wasn’t modding, and I haven’t reread it. Lol
From my perspective, Day 1 was great. I managed to push the Johhan wagon hard, and get some townie points. On night 1 I cant remember who I was going to kill originally, but I had submitted my choice, when CDB told me that Blahgo was being replaced by the legend-TCS.
Predicting that Blahgo wasn’t going to be top of any Doc’s protect list, I decided it’d be a good idea, so I killed him. It was hilarious afterwards-I joked with the mod about how many people were so distressed at TCS dying. :p
On Night 2, I was responsible for the death of Occult. At that point I decided I was going to claim Vig, who had actually been responsible for every scum death so far. 
On Day 3 the game died, and I was so proud of my play, I wanted to see how it would have ended. When I took the game over, every single Goa’Uld needed replacing-obviously they were in a pretty bad place by that point. The modkills did them some favours, but didn’t help the others an awful lot. Lack of a lynch wasn’t great news for the town, but the scum doubled up-with both Fonz and Vollkan choosing to kill the claimed Cop. Tar killed Rafk. If ABR had survived, his result would’ve been screwed, because Oman swapped his target (Erg0) with Aimee. Elias didn’t send in a choice for Protection.
Oman’s read on Day 4 was pretty poor. I’m not greatly convinced by the logic on Jordan, but I gather that his predecessor screwed him over a lot. Tarhalindur counterclaims, which is clearly ‘Ballsy move of the Game’ worthy. Nonetheless, it was probably necessary. He did well to make the claim so convincing that silly Erg0 didn’t bother countering. Jordan was also one of the few people at this point who had any suspicion of me (The Fonz).
Night 4 was funny, because I had a little chat with Fonz. He was clearly pessimistic about his chances-he felt that with no safeclaim he was on borrowed time. Generously, he used his NK to kill off lurkers, in an attempt to keep the gaming going. THANKS FONZ.
If there was a prize of most protown SK, I think you’d get it for this. Lol
Theo of the Replicators, attempted to kill Destructor, but was foiled by DGB. Meanwhile, the Goa’Uld took a shot at AlyG.
The next bit of the game was quite interesting, as AlyG broke the rules in an attempt to help the town, by claiming his night target. In fact, he gave more credibility to Vollkan, whom he had targeted, as it seemed apparent that Vollkan had been the NK target. Pretty ironic. Lol
Next day, and Vollkan pegs scum AGAIN. This time its Theo. I do think he gave away a little too much knowledge here about the scumgroups. From an objective stance, it was clear that Vollkan knew more than he was letting on, a long time before the end.
Theo makes a ballsy claim, but it doesn’t hold up. He gets lynched pretty quickly, and gets a fair bit of stick for his claim, especially from Tarhalindur. I spoke to Theo after his death, and told him that the ironic thing was, Tar’s claim wasn’t much better, and it was only a matter of time before Erg0 woke up, and he got lynched.
Night 5, and Fonz continues his Lurker-Genocide. Oman yet again swaps 2 vanillas (I asked him at the time, and apparently he felt 1 was almost certainly scum, and the other was almost certainly an NK victim), whilst Tarhalindur cleverly worked out that Distad was a Replicator, and killed him (though why he decided to NK him, rather than lynch, I’ll never know). Vollkan took a pot-shot at Tarhalindur, but DGB protected him! Rofl.
Next day, and Tar’s scumdar is back and on the money yet again. He pegs Lawrencelot as Replicator, but again, gives a little too much away about his own scumgroup, the Goa’Uld. I spoke to Jordan, and he was cringing at this point, when I informed him that, had Tarhalindur successfully bussed Tool, a Goa’Uld victory was literally impossible, because at some point, Erg0 would either die, or claim. This was land of the bussers, as Vollkan too, decided to push the lynch on his buddy Lawrencelot. The Fonz catches onto Tar’s hint dropping, but unfortunately, lands himself in a bit of bother. Tool basically confesses at this point, but in assume Tar gave him a claim, because it gave him a get out of jail free card. Tar vouches for the claim, and whilst this bit Tool in the ass later, I feel it was the best policy at the time. Oman distracts the town with talks of a breadcrumb.
By this point, Fonz appears to have given up, despite the fact that, at the start of the day, I had him town as a hot tip to win. There wasn’t much of a case against him, but he gave off the ‘giving up scumtell’ in bucketloads. Erg0’s response to the claim gets a massive ‘QFT’ from me. Nonetheless, he might have survived were it not for the major aggressiveness of Tarhalindur. This time it was my turn to cringe, as Fonz gave up. In actual fact, I think his best bet would have been to claim honestly. Robert Kinsey wouldn’t be an obvious scumclaim I don’t think, and there was little evidence to suggest an SK. I think he could have blagged Survivor or something.
Ah well, Fonz committed suicide, and the game continued.
Night 6, and this time, it was a Replicator that DGB saved from NK. Tarhalindur tried to kill Lawrencelot, in his typical ‘NK scum, lynch town’ playstyle. DGB protected Lawrence, and in order to confuse me further, Oman switched both actions to DGB, hence DGB got shot, but managed to protect himself. While everyone else was distracted, Vollkan killed Destructor. :p
As day dawned, Tool came up with another crazy theory-that Replicators and Goa’Uld were one and the same.
Erg0 seems to buy into it anyway. Interestingly, Tar’s order for the mass-claim, fortunately has Erg0 in last position. DGB shows reluctance to claim for obvious reasons. I think Whome tries hard to subtly ascertain whether DGB is the Doc or not, but unfortunately DGB doesn’t give anything away, and ends up getting a vote from him. Lawrencelot decides to have a stab at offing the Doc, by counter-claiming DGB. I thought, in the context of previous claims, his was pretty good, but most people felt that he was scummier than DGB anyway, and wanted to lynch him first instead. There is discussion about whether to continue the mass-claim, but overall it is defeated. Despite this, Oman decides to reveal his role for no reason whatsoever. Even more hilarious is the fact that he fake claims his previous targets.
I’d never heard of the term ‘Busdriver’ in Mafia, and would probably have attributed it to Vollkan’s/Tar’s playstyle more than anything else. :p
Lawrencelot was then caught out by his results claim. At the end of the day, there is some attempt at communication between DGB and Oman which is good. DGB protects Oman, and Oman swaps DGB and Whome (both protown), but it doesn’t matter, as both scumgroups decide that Erg0 is the biggest threat to their plans, and kill him, which really benefits Vollkan, as it secures him another mislynch. Exactly 6 hours later, Tar was dead, and we had a rather fitting end to the game: The leaders of both scumgroups, trying to overcome a pretty powerful town. I think most protown players thought Tar was the last scum, but they found out to their surprise that he wasn’t. DGB protected Oman again, and Oman switched DGB and Whome. Vollkan shot DGB, thus killing Whome, and giving Oman some assurity of DGB’s protownness. Meanwhile, Tool bumped off Jenter Brolincali.
Vollkan’s claim of the final mason is absolute gold. DGB certainly buys it, and it puts him in a great position. DGB’s plan to confirm Tools ability comes a little too late. If she had suggested it earlier, there might have been 2 ‘confirmed innocent’ scumbags at this point. Oman is mean, and ought to be modkilled at this point. But DGB is kind, and deserves a prize.
Vollkan throws Tool’s claim to the wolves, with good logic. Tool was killed, and the Goa’Uld were dead. DGB protects Oman yet again, and Oman makes a clever move, swapping Vollkan with DGB, and putting Vollkan at risk. Luckily for him, Vollkan decided not to risk killing anyone. I wasn’t sure what to do about Aimee at this point. I didn’t want the game to be broken by her absence, so I let the night continue for a little longer than necessary. But despite Vollkan’s reluctance to quicklynch Aimee, Oman and DGB want her out of the way as soon as possible, and he hammers (he later told me that he tried to look as scummy as possible with the hammer, with the intention of abusing WIFOM on the final night. The lynch took just over 9 hours.
And then, the final night. The climax of a great game. DGB protects Oman. Oman genuinely thinks hard about his decision, but eventually he decides to switch Vollkan and DGB, whilst Vollkan wins out on the WIFOM, by shooting himself!
DGB dies, and Oman is endgamed, and Vollkan, leader of the Replicators, snatches the victory.

I think that every group in the game had good moments. The Goa’Uld managed to come back from behind, and give the Replicators a run for their money. The Fonz stayed out of sight for a while, and I still think he could have gone on to win it if he’d had a little more faith in himself. The town did excellent- with only 2 mislynches in 10 days. Unfortunately, it was really luck which did them over in the end with several crosskills being prevented, and slowing the game down.
And finally, the Replicators who had a great starting position, and despite faltering with some of their claims, had good leadership, and to be honest, with the experience of their team, its not hard to see how they won.

I’d say best town performance has to go to DGB. Best Goa’Uld to Tarhalindur, despite some dubious bits in the middle. Best Replicator without a doubt goes to Vollkan. I think the best SK was without a doubt….ME! (oh yeh, and Fonz too)

But overall, this was an AWESOME game, which I am proud to have modded to a finish. Thanks to all of you who replaced in-this is one for the record books fo’ sure!

^i think he thought that you would be too arrogant to commit suicide, which i can sort of see, were this not basically RAF. lol

Vollkan’s claim of the final mason is absolute gold. DGB certainly buys it, and it puts him in a great position.

One question on this: Did any of the pro-town players go back and check my relationships with the other masons? See, destructor kept calling me pro-town, which was the main reason I thought that claiming Rya'c would be better than using my safeclaim of "Samantha Carter".

yeh in light of earlier discussion of Samantha Carter, you were probably right not to use it. :p

I knew you were the Replicator Godfather after Aimee's claim (I knew that Tool had a safeclaim, and that you would as well), but my own claim blew up in my face before I could bring that up (and change the claim order) and Tool failed to use my insight despite me bringing it up in night conversations.

My big mistake was in failing to say "Vollkan is the Replicator Godfather" or something to that effect before my lynch.

Tool had a safeclaim?

[Battle Mage]

The safeclaim:

Yeah, either:

a) somebody who's been really helpful
or
b) somebody who's been here since the beginning

jordan favors xyzzy or cavane. I kind of thought they were both scum.

But BM gave me cameron mitchell as a safe claim.

The final list of scum claims (if I followed up on my original plan, then I wouldn't have been countered, but I would likely have come under heavy flak and might well have been killed regardless):

Probably Tool, unless someone gets a guilty on him.

So, reasonably final list of falseclaims:

Tool: Col. Mitchell
Jordan (you): Bill Lee
Tarhalindur (me): most appropriate alien character at time of claim, likely Martouf

I might use Jonas instead, but only if I'm bussing myself (due to the extremely risky nature of the Jonas claim).

I switched and countered my own scumbuddy when I realized that he was already dead and I could get great townie points.

There were a few other characters I considered claiming, too (Oma Desala, Narim, Lya of the Nox come to mind).

Why Tool claimed UNK:

Okay, let's try to push for a mass claim then. What role chould I claim with Cameron Mitchell? Just vanilla?

And also, are you sure you could come up with a good claim unlikely for anybody else to have if this goes through?

I'm pretty sure that I'm in the clear should a mass claim come to pass - I claimed Bill Lee when I threw Jordan under the bus, and I haven't been counterclaimed. As for role, I intend to claim vanilla townie - I see no strong reason to claim anything elaborate when a simple claim will do. (The only other possibility I see is Hider, and that's a) open to counterclaim, and b) people might realize that it's unlikely with Doc Fraiser and a Martyr in the game.)

I recommend that you claim some version of your real GF ability, either UNK townie (UNK is short for unnightkillable, in case you're wondering) or 1-shot bulletproof townie. It's a believable claim - if you're looking for flavor justifications, read up on how Col. Mitchell survives attacks by Merlin's holograms in Avalon and Camelot, it's relatively safe (I'm pretty sure the town no longer has a vig: the full vig - O'Neill - is dead, and Teal'c already used his one-shot vengeance vig), and if I was town would expect Col. Mitchell to be in the game given the apparent lack of safe claims. As a side benefit, it's also likely to draw fire from some of the Replicators, probably including their Godfather.

Why we killed distad:

So, it's night. Time to talk... and oh is there a lot to talk about.

Replicators should be considerably easier to pin down from now on - there are some great leads now that theopor came up scum.

At this point, I think that our best chance of winning comes from getting me through to the endgame alive, preferably with no Replicators alive at the time. Given the way conversation was going today, my Jordan counterclaim has done a pretty good job of convincing the town and the Replicators that I am not Gou'Ald (note that distad - who is probably Replicator - attacked me as a Cult suspect, NOT as a Gou'Ald suspect or a Replicator suspect).

The problem, of course, is getting me through to endgame. Since I'm considered a nearly-confirmed innocent, I'm in serious danger of drawing the Replicator NK. (The one piece of good news is that, if I do die and turn up Gou'Ald, my heavy distancing + your safe claim may be enough to let you win the game).

Note that if I'm still alive once the Replicators have been winnowed down, I will bus you to no end (since that helps confirm my "not Gou'Ald" status). This will likely happen in 2-3 days (ideally, we take out a Replicator by lynch tomorrow, I pressure you into claiming the day after, you offer up the safeclaim, and I buy it with reservations thereby letting you skate into endgame, but this could easily change depending on what happens before then).

Now - as I see it, we have two real options for trying to get me into endgame alive:

1) We try to avoid crosskills in order to keep the Replicator NK in play as long as possible, and pray that I don't get nuked.
2) We try to off the Replicators ASAP, and hope that I don't get outconfirmed in endgame.

If we choose option 1, then xyzzy or DGB are probably the best kill choices tonight. If we choose option 2, then I'd prefer to see distad killed.

In short, I believed early on that the Replicators were hunting for me (may have been Fonz instead), so I had to balance getting the maximum number of Replicator lynches and trying to ensure my survival by killing of Replicators ASAP.

Would probably have worked, too, if not for killing Erg0...

lol thats what i get for not reading the role pms.

Oh and with regard to the masons, when i took over the game, the role was a little vague. The role pms hinted at the possibility of special powers, but CDB had not mentioned this elsewhere in the setup which i was sent, so i decided it would be safest to leave the masons as normal (although apparently 1 mason did manage to fulfill his special ability).

I still want to hear from Tar whether he would have known that Fonz was SK based on his GENUINE Nameclaim?

Survivor claims don't work, BM. Eventually, one scumgroup or other realises the town vig's gone down and there are still three killing groups...

that clearly wasnt the case in this game- where there was no Vig revealed, and only 1 occasion where there were 3 NK's. which could be explained by other roles in the game. Besides, you didnt necessarily have to claim survivor. In some circumstances, claiming SK can even work, if the town NEED to kill a player from a particular scumgroup.

Super stuff Volkan . . my stupidity wasn't in vain.

Happy Scumday Rich!
