Mini 976: Purgatory Mafia Game Over

[Battousai]

Order of operations:

pgo (pgo can't be roleblocked)
jailkeeper/roleblocker
hider
body guard/doc
vig/sk/mafia nk/poisoner
cop/tracker

Extra roles in there are for the inventor.

Night Actions

D1:

Socrates invention turned him into a miller for one night

N1:

Meh jailkept Socrates
Shotty attacked Nacho (unsuccessful, target was dead)
Prana tracked GroupThink/Pittbunny (Pittbunny targetted Nacho, walking in circles was part flavor and part saying Pitt targetted a hider who was hiding, since it would be known that the Nacho/hider was killed)
ZazieR investigated CryMeARiver (not guilty)
Pittbunny attacked Nacho (unsuccessful, target was dead)
Nacho hid behind Shotty to the Body (died from hiding behind SK)
Hasdgfas SDFB Socrates (successful)
CryMeARiver protects Amished (successful)

*

Note that hiding is done before any killing, thus the target would be found dead whereas vig/mafia/sk would be a simultanious kill and the target would be alive

N2:

Meh jailkept CryMeARiver (successful)
Shotty attacked Prana (successful)
Prana tracked CryMeARiver (CMAR didn't visit anyone, since she was jailkept)
ZazieR investigated xvart (guilty)
xvart activated consigliere ability (successful)
Hasdgfas SDFB CryMeARiver (successful)
CryMeARiver protected Prana (unsuccessful, CMAR is jailkept)

N3:

Meh jailkept Shotty (successful)
Shotty attacked Amished (unsuccessful, due to Shotty being jailkept)
ZazieR investigated MehPlusRawr (no result as ZazieR was already dead)
Hasdgfas SDFB ZazieR (successful)

I might have missed some due to not being able to use my laptop (which has them all) so I'm relying on the inbox and sorting through all the messages.

As I said, this game may be bastardized. That is because I did not create any power roles until I received role names and after I assigned alignment (had to rework it a bit when I gave a town aligned shotty the sk power). I then made a few roles for each rolename and picked the most balanced that I could. I haven't modded a no VT game before, so it was a bit harder than normal.

I'm really surprised by the inactivity in this game. Seeing as this is a uPickem I figured activity would be the highest of all my games, yet I had 5 replacements (2 to one role).

I've also received PMs about not accepting the last MehPlusRawr vote. The reason was that MehPlusRawr's v/la was from July 3-9th and 11-17th. When he got on just to vote, I assumed that he only had time to vote and not read the thread nor respond to questions/make night actions. Since the town might have won or even the SK (small chance) if Shotty claimed SK and tried to shift the town towards lynching the unknown scum/ voting no lynch. His claim might have worked if the jailkeeper claimed and revealed his actions. Thus, MehPlusRawr was needed to be active for anyone to win, except the mafia.

I would like to apologize again to Shotty for putting up his death scene and Pitt's when Pittbunny died. I had to edit his name out, but it seems no one noticed or put it together. I would also like to apologize to Ythan, as I recruited him to play but he didn't get a chance, and thus I would count this as a completed game for both Ythan and MehPlusRawr (though I would assume since it was a loss, Ythan wouldn't).

I actually liked the game, even if it was a shame that people started to flake (that always annoys me in games, even though I was unlucky recently and wound up doing the same myself due to things beyond my control).

As a whole, you did a pretty good job Batt, the roles were interesting, though I think including an SK may have gone a bit too far with the swinginess, perhaps having a one use Vig or something may have been a better option. But other than that I have no real issues against the game, and for a game that was created pretty much on the spot, it went well.

Though with Kryten, I think the must have a vote on someone actually went the opposite way to what you put. As being that he killed an innocent person, Kryten would be guilty and more likely to be unwilling to kill anyone. If anything I was expecting to be voteless, or just be a survivor role (as Kryten has no real allies, he's just there to serve), of course, with Kryten almost any role could be used I suppose, as all investigative roles are easy to put with the flavour, it's only really killing roles that aren't possible.

I was actually considering going with Ace Rimmer instead of Kryten, but then realized that strictly speaking the only real role for Ace (To keep with flavour) would be bulletproof and unlynchable, as everyone likes him.

I am really surprised that I pulled that one out.
Thanks for modding, Battousai, the game was fun, as upicks usually are.
Sorry about any inactivity on my part, I usually have at least one little part of each game where that happens, but I tried to get back over it and stay decently active.

xvart, do we want to provide the QT? I personally can't think of any issues.

[xvart]

I enjoyed the game. As I mentioned in the Dead QT I was actually worried that Amished was a cop or had some variable investigation ability when he came out D2 with a vote and no explanation on me. And since he asked Cow what he thought about me I actually thought he investigated Cow and then got the redirect to me. At that point, I hadn't asked if I had to use my ability; I first assumed it wasn't an activated ability and always on. Then I learned that I had to submit my ability.

Once I got investigated I tried to weezle my way out of it while keeping suspicion elsewhere (Shotty). Unfortunately I got drunk on my cruise and accidentally undermined the suspicion on Shotty by saying there was a universal problem; but I don't think that mattered or anyone took it seriously.

I don't mind providing the QT. http://www.quicktopic.com/44/H/MvCXGdLymqNH

xvart.

Anyways, one of the major reasons I replaced out was because I confused this game with another one and said my role over there.

[Amished]

Yeah, I thought HoMoo was scum; but SttB's scumminess came into play too late to get them all lynched in a timely manner.

SttB; you really almost should've claimed SK...

What were the night actions?

[Amished]

Awww, if Meh wouldn't have jailkept Shotty, town might've had a chance? actually nope; 1:1 mafia/jailkeeper

[Amished]

Glad all my reads were right after getting into it (sorry hp; you're always scummy to me )

[Ythan]

Wait what happened.

[PranaDevil]

Wait what happened.

you replaced in 2 days before the deadline, and as you didn't vote, deadline hit with 2 votes on Shotty which ended the game there.

[Amished]

Hey, at least scum was lynched! No-lynch would've been pretty awesome though if SttB claimed SK...

[Battousai]

Though with Kryten, I think the must have a vote on someone actually went the opposite way to what you put. As being that he killed an innocent person, Kryten would be guilty and more likely to be unwilling to kill anyone.

When I read the wikipedia page, I read that when his ability to feel guilty was compromised he would become rude and aggressive. Since I didn't really want to post restrict you into acting rude, I went with aggressive.

With a pgo and a jailkeeper, it would definately be interesting.

I was disappointed when rest claimed. I was expecting her to kill someone. With so many killing roles (vig, sk, mafia), I was hopeing that one of them would target her early to avoid a short game.

Didn't really read the Wiki myself, as I know so much about Red Dwarf off the top of my head I don't need to do much reading. Never known him to be aggressive as he cannot harm humans. But he can break his programming (as Lister taught him how) so it works in a sense, just sounded strange, lol.

[Amished]

I wasn't very happy with Rest claiming either... I think if SttB hadn't fake-claimed a lie detector (why did he do that?) and tried to go after a same-kill (since he was compulsive) he could've blended in and probably turned my attention away from him to HoMoo. Though I do feel better about lynching 3rd party since they're supposedly harder to find (but not this game..)

[Socrates]

I am SO bad a mafia.

Nobody look at me!!

(Why the hell was I killed night 1? I was wrong about everything and I randomly claimed miller halfway through the day.)

[Pittbunny]

I need to stop doing stupid things. Ever.

[Amished]

lol pretty much Pitt; though if it wasn't for SttB; I don't think we would've lynched you that day... Momentum was really shifting to you-town.

[Ythan]

I'm not sure exactly what happened still but I apologize if my negligence effected the outcome of the game.

it's not about how right you are, but how non-scummy you seemed

[Amished]

Ythan, nothing you did would've affected the outcome. There were enough factors early on that made the game turn out the way it did.

[animorpherv1]

LOL NACHO. YOU HID BEHIND A SK.

If I remember, Nacho was Alber Einstien. WHAT THE FUCK. LOL.

[Shotty to the Body]

I didn't expect there to be a vig and an SK in a mini and I had killed his claimed target (or so I thought) so I thought it would've been pretty easy to confirm myself by catching scum with a proven ability.

[Battousai]

I tried to balance out the 3 killing roles with pgo/doctor/semi-bulletproof/jailkeeper, and expecting there would be at least 1 crosskill between mafia/sk.

Uhh, shouldn't CMAR have died?

[PranaDevil]

Looking at the order of actions and such, I'd say yes, CMAR should've been deaded.
