So, do all the dead players know what's going on now? Because if you don't, you're missing out. 😉

The few remaining residents of Pleasantville awake and leave their homes with trepidation to meet at the town hall. But they are not prepared for what they find when they arrive. Sheriff Devyn, the tracker converted to mafioso thug with the ability to silence every other night is standing behind the remains of cuitlamiztli, an innocent civilian, her body obviously burned badly by acid. DVMdream, the mafioso who could investigate every other night is standing next to her laughing maniacally, and behind them both, standing their quietly with her arms crossed watching all of the madness unfold, is wildcatJ,
the-godfather-.jpg
who was in fact unseerable (although she had a chance of being tracked, if your tracker hadn't been converted).

Sheepdogpsu, the bodyguard and protector of innocent civilians attempted to defend himself and jamr0ckin, the civilian turned prostitute (don't judge, everyone has to make a living!) and nstarz, the civilian recently promoted to detective, but the mafiosi are too strong and too well-armed for them, and DVMdream and Devyn whip out their guns and kill them all like this:

The mafia have won the game! Thanks everyone for playing, sorry it was a little touch and go but I did throw it together in literally 30 minutes so tried to make it work as best as possible and have fun with it! Explanation of roles and recaps to come!
 
That's an awesome write-up! Sorry the civilians lost, but it was a great game to watch and I think the mafia ended up earning the win for how much they confused the villagers. :laugh:
 
Saw that coming from a mile away 🙄 Excellent game, krist -- even though the mafia won!
 
Villager Roles (with original player):

Doctor (nohika): can heal a player killed by the mafia twice, 100% chance of success the first time, 50% chance the second time; never got used

Tracker (devyn): follow a player at night (33% chance of success if tracks the godfather)

Prostitute (orca2011): block night actions (100% of the time)

Detective (IPB): determine alignment

Bodyguard (sheeps): protect 1 player a night, if successfully fends off an attack, silenced for a day/night

Cuitl, nstarz, lissarae, dyachei, wldlfstdnt and jamr0ckin were all citizens who were randomly re-assigned roles as players died.
 
Well played wolves, the only time I ever protected successfully was when I protected myself after outing my role and the mafia tried to off me:meanie: I would have protected lissa from dying too if DVM hadn't pulled out all my teeth

Also we should never elect devyn leader again, she has gotten converted and won as a wolf twice that way
 
Wildcat, I knew you were a wolf! I told Dyachei that in chat today.

Sorry the civilians lost, but good job wolves for your team efforts.
 
Mafia Roles:

The Godfather (wildcatJ): appears innocent when investigated, communicates with dirty cop through mod

Thug (kakurubird): can silence a player

Dirty cop (Nyanko): aligned with the mafia and wins with the mafia but can only communicate through mod to the godfather, unaware of mafioso identities
*I wish nyanko had stayed alive longer to see how this role panned out*

Mafia Rat (dvmdream): Here's where most of the clusterf*ck of this game occured. Every role in this game was RNGed except for this one which I created specially for DVM :meanie:
She was to appear to be part of the mafia but was supposed to be a rat/undercover cop who was really on the side of the villagers and could only win if villagers won. I had designed it so she could not PM with her group, and would have a "secret meeting" once a night with a villager (via PMs through mod) to answer 1 yes/no question without being able to reveal names of other mafia members. If the mafia discovered what she was doing it meant instant death. However, a couple of "days" into the game, I accidentally sent a PM to the entire mafia instead of just DVMdream and blew her cover (still sorry about that! 😳) so converted her to a regular mafia member since nyanko had already died and that way there were 3 wolves which was a good number to start with a game this size. I am really bummed I blew it because just like nyanko's role, I really wanted to see how the "rat" role played out 🙄

The wolves could convert every 3rd night but with decreasing chance of success each time (100% the first, 60% the second, 30% the third). They only successfully converted once on night 3 (devyn).
 
I must say...watching this one from the sidelines was interesting...you villagers fell for it big time!

Though I didn't play, great game to watch Krist! 👍

And me! 😀 Though, I died too early to actually get re-assigned. But that was my purpose!
 
Another technology/epic mod fail was another reason I thought the wolves would actually need more help and why I was ok with making DVMdream a regular part of the mafia was that when I was sending out roles, I sent THREE sets of civilian roles with a BCC thinking they were blind to everyone...note to future mods, they are not blind! So I assumed the villagers would use that to their advantage and easily "cleared" several people already. 😳but apparently not everyone noticed my f8ck up so it did not end up being as advantageous as I thought it would.
 
I can see why you guys think this game is addictive. More drama than in Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Seasons 1 and 2 combined.

Love it!

Well, I'm glad to see she wasn't playing us from the beginning!

Did you bcc all recipients or just one? I'm pretty sure you can avoid this by sending it to yourself and bcc'ing the real recipients... that way they only see your name (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).

Ah, I'm guessing that's how wolfspeaker knew that wldlfstdnt was a villager?

Great game anyway! Even though I died on the first night, it was still fun to watch. :laugh:

No you are right that's how it needed to be done, but I sent it to "wld" or whoever and the BCC'd "wolfspeaker" so wld saw that wolfspeaker was also on the message (or vice versa) anyway, lesson learned!
 
Night 1
IPB investigate dyachei (civilian)
devyn track DVMdream (sees DVMdream go to IPB's house)
sheepdog protect himself
nohika not healing
orca block cuitl

DVMdream kill IPB
kakurubird silence orca

Night 2
apparently I decided not to fill in my spreadsheet for night 2 hmm I must have done it on a paper somewhere, sorry!

Night 3
Lissa investigate cuitl (civilian)
sheepdog protect orca
nohika not healing
orca not blocking

Mafia convert devyn, silence nstarz

Night 4
Lissa investigate wildcatj (godfather=civilian)
sheepdog protect himself (successful protection, sheeps and wildcatj silenced)

Night 5 **This night was the game changer!**
Lissa investigate devyn (mafia)
Sheeps protect Lissa
orca block cuitl

Mafia DVMkill Lissa, devyn silence sheeps
**I flipped a coin to see which attack would go first, and devyn's won, so that means devyn attacked sheeps first which allowed dvmdream to kill Lissa who was now unprotected; If it had gone the other way Lissa would have survived and outed devyn and the villagers probably would have won**

Night 6
Nstarz investigate jam (blocked by prostitute)
sheepdog injured, can't protect
nohika heal (no one to heal)
Jam block nstarz

Now I hope Avengers is ready to go soon ha otherwise I (and probably others!) will be going through the dreaded WW lull in between games...:laugh:
 
It's supposed to start tomorrow night or the next morning. 🙂 I'm really looking forward to it, although I still have to do some avatar searching.

Great game Krist. I investigated devyn the night I died 😡 As soon as she shot down my veto idea, I knew. It was obvious she was in cahoots with DVMDream. I CANNOT believe you guys fell for that "rat" crap!
Click to expand...

Hey... the "rat" only became a lie after the mod mess up....

I was telling the truth for about 30 minutes, ok it wasn't even that long... :meanie:

Oh... and nyanko died after the mod/"rat" mess up... I made part of my lie appear like I was "looking for the dirty cop" so that I could not completely trust everyone in my group... I knew nyanko was the "dirty cop" on Day 2, when I was telling everyone in my group I had no idea who it was.

Devyn was reluctant at first when I told her but then went with it and then begged for me to save her from the mafia killing her... ok, I will just convert the only player in the game that can discover our unseerable mafia member...


Haha...
I just can't believe that cuit and nohika also fell for it...
Oh and sheeps... I didn't take your teeth... Devyn did...
I did kill IPB and Lissa though...:meanie::meanie:
IPB was really just a lucky hit..

Oh and orca... you are a liar too... You used your role on me Night 4 or 5, but I wasn't doing anything so it didn't matter... *claiming you only used it Night 1 on cuit :rollseyes: but I didn't want to confirm your role so I didn't say anything... :meanie:

Krist I only have one question: Why was sheepdog able to protect on Night 5? He was silenced on Night 4 for having successfully protected shouldn't that be an automatic inability to use the role? ***Not that it made any difference since Lissa still died***

It was so annoying having the roles keep coming back in we had to perfectly orchestrate silencings and killings in an attempt to actually get to the important roles so to have them keep coming back was frustrating...

It was fun... I can't believe that no one mentioned how quiet I was the whole game or anything.. I thought at any moment someone would figure you that I was not really a "rat" and kill me off... but no one ever did, well until it was too late....:meanie:

GO MAFIA!!! 😀😀
 
@dvmdream, Sheeps was allowed to protect because he was silenced not injured, he couldn't protect if he was injured, like the following night. Plus, the villagers needed it!

I can't diagree with that, perhaps they really did need a "rat" to begin with... :meanie:

Me too! I had so many good ideas then jerks had to go and ruin them. I do like how they were analyzing my voting patterns and posting though. I was trying to figure out the mafia same as all of you, jeez. 😉

I told the mafia not to kill any flying pop tart cats with rainbow trails, so *hopefully* yall knew who I was.
 
Great game Krist 😀

Yeah the 1st night when I tracked DVM and caught her killing IPB I was like SCORE!!!! And then she told me this whole big thing on how she was the mafia rat and the whole role Krist had given her... it took me quite a few PMs to be like "ok fine", but I was very wary of the whole idea and then since both Cuit and Nohika believed her I figured I was not the only crazy one at least... but when she questioned me for more info on my role I knew there was something fishy...I figured I was set to be mafia meat when all of the sudden I wake up in the morning to find a "you have been converted" PM - and convert or die... so of course I chose to convert....I would never turn down conversion....

Being a wolf in this game was good craic for sure... although the constant reviving of roles really made it hard on the wolves... kill off a seer, but a new one is made... WTF.... so that made it a lot harder..

Haha yeah, if we couldn't figure that out we'd be in trouble.

Way fun game though! I really enjoyed this one, though it was scary at times for the wolves. You should have seen me yesterday when you guys decided I was a wolf that could avoid investigation. "But you're making lots of assumptions and they're all right!!! WTF!" I was mad haha. But great game Krist! It was hard for the wolves, but obviously we needed the challenge :meanie::meanie::meanie:
 
Good game krist! Thanks for running it!

When the lynch came down to me and wildcat died, DVM and I had lots of hurried conversation about what to do since devyn had already said she was going to bed and we didn't want RNG to decide. So DVM voted for me since wildcat was worth more (couldn't be investigated). I then had to be silent because we didn't want anyone wondering why I didn't switch my vote to wildcat to save myself which would have been rather suspicious, but it also worked nicely to make DVM seem more civilian to some (I think it was sheepdog that posted something like that).

There were definitely some challenges for the wolves which made it pretty fun!
