It's Retro Music time at L4KE Hits 89.9 FM! Your favorite station for mafia-inspired tunes! - Nancy Sinatra: Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)

inte has been lynched. Sorry I've taken longer than usual to flip.

[Zar]

We interrupt this broadcast at L4KE 89.9 FM for a public service announcement.

The Lake Village trials have taken a quick turn on this third day as the council decided on charging inte with first degree murder of The Lake Village Town Major Zar,
Detective Johhog and security Officer Kingmaker.

The Lake Village jury decided almost in unanimous decision to setence inte with the mandatory punishment of life imprisonment without parole. The Judge in charge of the trial, decided to increase the penalty to death for aggravations including prod-dodging and low activity. During the trials, inte, who appointed himself as his own defense attorney argued that he had replaced into an inactive slot and was basically working on improving the contribution levels after his entrance.

It isn't known what the defendant thought of the Judges decision, as before it was possible to escort him back to his prison cell, inte produced a gun he managed to smuggle into the premises and shot himself after saying "I'd rather die by my hand that let you have the pleasure!"

Very little was to be done, as he died in the act.

inte,

If there is disagreement among the choices I receive, the last choice before the night deadline will be used.

Watch:

One night in the game only, you may target a player and learn who, if anybody, targeted that player the same night (but not what actions were performed on that player).

If you choose to use your ability, you are not able to perform the Mafia kill for that night.

[Zar]

Thank you to everyone who made this game possible. Vi, zoraster, CES for reviewing the setup and discussing all interactions, Papa Zito for keeping up with me and my questions too! Special thanks to the replacements for stepping up without knowing what they were up to! And to those who were part of the game without even knowing, well, you're special

Until the next!

LINK TO DEAD QT.

[Zar]

Oh and

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

[Yates]

My night actions:

N1 - Notch returned VT - that's the only reason I backed off of him
N2 - Malp returned VT - this time I assumed last scum was vanilla and my investigation could only catch him in a fake claim

GGA

[Zar]

Oh Right.

Night Actions:

Night One:

Johhog investigates Kingmaker -> Result:

Innocent

(Unreported because Killed on Night One).
Yates investigates notch -> Result: Vanilla
Kingmaker targets Johhog -> Action Successful (Unreported), however, Johhog is a Macho Cop and will die regardless.
Evilgorrilaz kills Johhog -> Action Successful
Zoroaster did not send an action.

Night Two:
inte kills Baseline -> Successful, but Baseline was protected by Kingmaker and thus Kingmaker dies in his stead).
Yates investigates malpascp -> Successful, reported as Result: Vanilla)
Kingmaker protects Baseline -> Successful (Unreported), Kingmaker dies as a result
Zoroaster did not submit an action

[PeregrineV]

Wow, first town sweep since Back to the Future mafia.

Sweet!

Definite kudos to Baseline and pretty much the whole town for being so...towny!

Awesome mod job Zar!

[Baseline]

Woah, Kingmaker protected successfully both nights, that's pretty impressive.

Can we see the mafia qt please?

[Kingmaker]

Well, I went for obvious, seems like mafia did the same.

Flawless victory! (Well, dying to a factional kill shouldn't count as a flaw )

[Johhog]

Good play everyone! My MVP for this game is without any doubt

dunhamganger

. I'm impressed, Dunham, and I'd love to play with you again.

Notch analysed things correctly when he killed me, I was definitely going for him on D2.

About the setup... it's OK but I think it was a bit too non-normal. Mafia JoAT, Compulsive Bodyguard and Town Role Cop is a bit too much in my opinion. Oh well, it's far from game-breaking. Otherwise, great modding Zar, it was a pleasure to play in this game. I can also say with confidence that your write-ups were the funniest I've ever read and your timing with votecounts was perfect (and the idea to throw in some music or a work of art from time to time was likewise great). From this game alone you're now one of my absolute favourite mods and I hope to soon play in one of your games again.

Btw, I'm glad that you invited me, Zar... I was starting to retire (and to be honest I initially signed up for this game as a friendship service) but this game made me want to play Mafia again. Thanks!

[malpascp]

Well, that was quite unexpected. Seriously, I didn't actually expect inte to be scum, guess I always get mixed up when replacements come. You guys are just one of the best towns I've ever seen. I'm aware I didn't do much to help, so congrats

[the director]

VOTE: dunhamganger

[StefanB]

That was the best victory posible in the setup, so I count it as pretty flawless.
I was suprised that we had 2 townpowerroles hiden, I was thinking only 1.
(well but since they weren't so strong, on paper and the game was won on dawplay, okay)
Very suprised that Yates was one of them and the rolecop. (A role that could have been quite a bit trouble at massclaim and he asked about it day 3)
For the townMVP well I did mentione Baseline who pushed both scum and us all in the right direction.
Also congratulation Kingmaker, that was a good performance and well proved that bodyguard isn't as bad as role as I thought is is.

Just to know, who else was invited by Zar? Me, Johhog...

Great modeling and funny flavour.

[Yates]

Very suprised that Yates was one of them and the rolecop.

Good. I've been burnt playing super-Town with a good PR before.

@Zar - can we see the scum QT?

Without looking at it I'm going to assume Kingmaker was killed on claim alone. Notch probably had meta reasons to go after Johhog - but I'm guessing scum had designs to exploit the Yates/Empking distraction. Again, just a guess. If it's the case, remind me to thank Empking for providing me cover.

@Malp - You didn't have strong enough Town play this game, and it almost got you lynched. I will admit that I tunneled on you for pressure. I also wanted tunneled on you for protection from an NK. I was pretty sure you were scum so I was hoping that you *couldn't* kill me because the reason I got NKed would be too obvious. Kingmaker's early roleclaim took care of that for me but I thought it was worth a shot and I wonder how it would have played out. This is a strategy I'm going to keep in my back pocket for future games.

[StefanB]

Yates: Nope, scum tried to kill Baseline.
Probably that the worst that could happen was a dead Kingmaker was not hindering them to try to kill the one they wanted.

[Zar]

I'm leaving the scumteam the decision of revealing their QT.
People that /inned for invi: Yates, StefanB, Kingmaker, Johhog, PeregrineV. Baseline didn't in but agreed to replace after seeing he was missing out

[Zoroaster]

I think it was great that I forgot I was a Roleblocker and didn't use my action.

[Dunhamganger]

I will forever be a little sad that the director wasn't a scum.

Johhog, thanks for the compliment, but after D1 Baseline was pretty clearly the hero. My D2 is pretty bad in light of the flips, and my vote on inte didn't have a lot of feeling behind it either.

Great set-up and flavor, Zar; it's almost a bummer we swept it so quickly, as I imagine there were more things planned.

[the director]

I will forever be a little sad that the director wasn't a scum.

I know you will be.

[Dunhamganger]

<3.

[Yates]

@TD

CRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUZ!!!!!!

[the director]

@Dum - <4 ... cause that is 1 moer then 3

@Yates - that game was freaking amazing. I went from happy to sad to angry to depressed back to happy in the span of 4 game minutes.

[MonkeyMan576]

I just want to say for the record I was a jack of all trades. I was fakeclaiming, since I was scum, but I tried to make it as believable as possible.

Wish I could have played more of the game, sorry scumbuddies.

[Baseline]

Scum QT please?
