Mini 589: SSBB Smalltown Mafia (Game Over!)

[iamausername]

Mod: If ice climbers are death stumped, anti-town and alive with one other person (pro-town), do they win?

Yes.

That contradicts their win condition.

If a Mafioso or Serial Killer and a town-aligned player are the last two players alive, the Mafioso/Serial Killer wins.

[The Fonz]

OIC. Still contradicts win condition, mind.

Setup notes, front page update to come later on, when I have more time.

[Xdaamno]

To tell the truth, I'm a little dissapointed in my own setup. It turned out to be

far

more swingy than I expected, while ultimately led to a SK victory despite the fact the town had two successful lynches. I think iamausername lucked out with an excellent role for SK, and Anatole was unlucky in absorbing and misfiring a vig just before he died.

[curiouskarmadog]

technically, the town lynched correctly everynight..

..but still lost.

[The Fonz]

Uh, yeah. The town lost without ever mislynching.

[curiouskarmadog]

so this loss could really be blamed on the vigs..interesting.

[andersonw]

Oh well. Good job IAAUS.

Any tips on improving my scum play?

[curiouskarmadog]

dont be scummy?

actually you were the only one that I didnt peg as mafia day 1...but you also didnt post either.

[curiouskarmadog]

also, I love smalltown games, but I cant seem to win one...note to self, pick a crappy role so you can hang around longer.

[The Fonz]

One question.

I assumed Gorrad was mafia when he was caught in a lie regarding RBing IAAUN, because the way things worked out, that can't have been possible. So what happened?

[curiouskarmadog]

actually I take this back, I didnt think Mafiassk was mafia either.

At any rate, will be running another Smalltown game in about 2-3 weeks (my turn on the que)....please check it out.

[andersonw]

One question.

AK shot pmg.
Mafia shot AK.
goborage hid behind IAAUN.
I could be wrong.

CKD, I will check it out, but in 1 week, I have summer camp for 2 weeks, so I might not be able to /in fast enough for it. Could I pre-in and then post when I get back?

[The Fonz]

No, that's not possible. AK can't have shot PEG.

Kirby

role absorber

[row]You’re

Kirby

! You made your debut in

Kirby’s Dream Land

, and in this game, you’re a

Role Absorber

. At night, you can choose to absorb the role of another player, and then you’ll be able to use it yourself the following night! Once you’ve used this role, it has taken effect, or one night has passed, you can’t use it again. Also, you can only have one role absorbed at a time, and you can’t use a power and absorb a role on the same night.

AK cannot use a power and absorb on the same night. He absorbed the doc power night one, so he would have had the choice of using the doc power night two, or absorbing (but not using) another power. His role specifically states that absorbed powers can be used the FOLLOWING night.

[iamausername]

Wow, I'm pretty shocked that I actually pulled a win out of that. I figured someone would try to kill me last night after all the the twilight talk.

D2, I was surprised how easily anderson was lynched, and then rather worried when he turned up mafia, since it stopped me trying the 'I'm less of a threat than the mafia' route after goborage turned up dead. After my other plan of claiming that Gorrad must be SK and blocked and killed gob apparently fell through due to too many deaths, I realised my best strategy would be to get myself lynched as quick as possible and hope no one realised that I hadn't actually lost yet. I was so pleased when Gorrad hammered me, but then everyone got in a bunch of words in twilight, and I figured the jig was up.

I certainly got incredibly lucky with this one - if the actions last night had gone any other way, I think it would have been a town victory. But me and Lawrencelot killed different townies (me The Fonz, him dahill) AND Gorrad vigged Lawrencelot. At least, I think that's what must have happened. Any other way, you'd have either had two townies, one confirmed scum alive, or both confirmed scum, one townie alive.

Would definitely like to see a list of night actions, because I'm still confused about exactly what went on N2.

No, that's not possible. AK can't have shot PEG.

You're assuming AK told the truth about what power he absorbed N1.

[The Fonz]

That's true. But you have to assume town tells the truth.

Also:

, and Anatole was unlucky in absorbing and misfiring a vig just before he died.

Actually, regardless of anything else, that wasn't unlucky, it was an horrifically bad choice on the part of AK. If he does nothing that night, town wins easily.

[Lawrencelot]

Good game. I don't know what CKD is talking about, because I thought my buddies were way more scummy than me. It was obvious MafiaSSK was mafia, anderson less so. Town should have won this game, I tried my best to turn the game to my hand when my buddies were dead, but the SK ruined it . Good job, iamausername. Would like to see a list of night actions though.

[The Fonz]

Your weaseliness about using your power was incredibly scummy. I had you down as scum throughout (until Gorrad appeared to have been caught in a lie, at least).

[Xdaamno]

No, that's not possible. AK can't have shot PEG.

As a note, yeah, AK absorbed the vig power N1.

Like I said, I'll do night actions/summary later on. Tommorow, probably.

[The Fonz]

Oh, man.

That cost town the game.

[The Fonz]

As a side note, XD, I think a game with the potential for five killing roles (mafia, sk, one-shot vig, JOAT, and a role absorber which could take on the one shot vig's role) PLUS a hider which died if hiding behind scum, you were always going to get a swingy game.

[curiouskarmadog]

jesus, why did he absorb a vig role?

[Gorrad]

GG everyone. Yeah, I was telling the truth. I figured I'd just vig Lawrencelot last night- SKs don't win enough games, and he had been very unlucky with Gorborage, so a break was caught.
