Misder is a player I'm having a hard time reading. Most of the content-posts from Misder have been responses to fishball's 'accusations', and misder never seems current on the situation or contributing to what is actively going on...
To be quite blunt, I think you have a hard time reading anyone, lol.

Yes. All actions always go through. Ok, this being the case, I think Kita should have the last say whether cubed protects him or not. Kita, if you feel certain you have a scum in your radar, tell cubed not to protect you and you'll be able to get your hit in, even if you die. If you're not as confident in your hit, I think cubed should keep protecting you. We still have deconduo's night kp tonight I believe, that's enough. I trust Kitaman enough to not have him announcing his hit before hand. It seems entirely possible that the mafia have a medic, which would slow us down quite a bit if they knew for sure who we were hitting. ^^@fishball: Rofl it's true dude, did you see me in team mini mafia? Can't read anyone... Anyway, I'm not going to take this seriously until you flip tonight :/
Haha, my post wasn't exactly implying to anything that you have on this game. I'm just saying in general. You have a good attitude though, and most importantly, you read, so over time you'll be fine, hopefully. Oh, I so fucking hate players that don't/can't read.
I'm just munching on lunch right now and felt like posting something.

Honestly, If I had 4KPs now, I would wipe out all the inactives. Don't even care what side they're on. It's against the game spirit no matter what side you're on. It's a GAME, you're supposed to PLAY it, not idle for 1 month and then go LOLOLOL I didn't do anything and the town NEVER SUSPECTED ME. /awesome.
But since town doesn't want to take down inactives, then we should go for the traitor, and you're the best target for that at the moment. But please know that I still love you. <3 xoxo.
I only like Romanian girls, and their sarcastic humor.

If Jimbo is Town aligned and is BP, he will have to bring this up for sure. (Proves someone is lying) If Jimbo is not Town, he can just claim veteran to avoid conflict.

Overall I'm disturbed by the lack of noise today. Kita, what do you think of beneather? should we have dedonduo hit him tonight?
fishball, you're right that jimbo could be scum. But in that case I really don't mind roleblocking him. I don't think we're going to target him with town KP tonight, so I'm not worried about protecting him.
I'm not specifically pointing fingers at anything here. Since you said, "Assuming Jimbo claims vet, then he's a decent alternate medic target for cubed". I'm just pointing out the scenarios, like I always do. Believe or not, that's the way it has always been. If you keep drawing to conclusions based on information people "provide" you with, you'll be easily deceived. Take it from a guy that is about to die.

I’ve had this post prepared, and have been waiting for the inevitable moment for quite a while now.
It’s not exactly a secret that I am the Traitor. Even an amoeba can figure that out by now. The moment a player brought up that he did not receive the Traitor role, and his claim was proven by his death, in all likely hood, there can only be one ending that awaits me. I’ll leave my comments and motives for pre-game. As for this post, my last post, there are a few things I want to point out. This is merely a logical explanation from my point of view, and I will be leaving out most of the subjective game details and events due to obvious reasons; If I said Ace is not Mafia in a game where I flipped Mafia, who would believe me? It would just be more a of a WIFOM.
The Mafia obviously know each other, and know who isn’t one of their own. The only thing that Mafia does not know, is among these players, who are the Serial Killers. Lynches can be persuaded and convinced, but SK KP on the other hand is a lot more difficult. Any logical player will tell you that finding and hunting for the SK will be one of Mafia’s primary goal in this game. Also, keep in mind that the SK cannot be killed by conventional means, due to their nature of being bulletproof. There are only 4 possible ways for the SK to die in this game.
- Hit by Day Vigilante - Taken a hit while being Roleblocked - Lynched - Taken a hit by another SK
The most convenient way, would of course be lynching the SK, for a couple reasons. It builds credit to the person who pushed for the SK lynch, and it eliminates the chances that a fellow teammate (if you are Mafia) to be lynched as there is only one lynch.
Now although the above is mainly presented from a Mafia standpoint, this does not mean it does not apply to other parties at all. It’s already proven that we have multiple SK’s in this game. From the core, SK’s only play for themselves and can only win if they are the last man standing. They will have to kill each other, and they can since their hits go through BP. They cannot win with each other and this has been confirmed by Ace.
The most dangerous threat to a SK, is the lynch. They cannot be taken out by conventional night hits, and their alignment check comes up as innocent. They only start as one, with Mafia starting at 5, and the possibility of ending up as 6 by recruiting the Traitor. They need KP assistance from the Mafia to trim down the count of Town, but they also need to keep Mafia’s # count in check. First thing, it doesn’t hurt Mafia’s 1 KP with their members dying (unless all of them die). Secondly, it lowers the Mafia's influence in lynch votes, which is the most critical portion. If SK’s want to win, this is what they must do.
What matters to Town, is to eliminate all onslaught sources from the SK’s and Mafia. I already said this once. Killing a SK is an instant -1 KP. Killing a Mafia however, overall KP remains the same. It’s pretty obvious what benefits the Town more in both short and long term gains. I decided not to reply when BC argued against my logic, because if I argue, it would basically mean that I am admitting Traitor and am admitting defeat. Even though my lynch was 99.99% imminent, I decided to play that 0.01% to the end. I only decided to post this when my death is confirmed so I can get my point through.
If it ever came down to Town vs SK at the end, Town should be looking for players who fits into those subtle traits I mentioned above. There are already a few players I can name that falls into that category. Like I've said and repeated many times before, it is in the SK's best interest to blend in with Town. Acting "pro-town" now, does not mean they are Town. Finding a SK, does not necessarily mean they are Town. Finding Mafia, does not necessarily mean they are Town. I know it is impossible for every "pro-town" player to be the SK, but this is a fine line to walk; It would be up to the remaining players at the time to figure it out. This is Pick Your Power Mafia. One thing I know for sure, is that the SK will strike when the time is right, and if Town is not prepared, this could end very badly.

Just like all game, you make zero sense whatsoever.

I did not want to play this game at first, but when BC joined, I also decided to sign up last moment. I gave myself two choices at that point. 1. Get Day Vigilante and kill BC the instant the game starts. 2. Destroy LSB's plan. Getting Day Vigilante requires a very high draft. 6th wasn't high enough, plus I thought it would be a bit too lame even if I was able to pull the assassination off. It would be funny regardless. Obviously, I went with the latter.
There are a few reasons why I wanted to choose Traitor - I do not have to deal with Town. - It makes things more interesting, and gives me extra motivation to screw with LSB's grand plan. - Since I knew I was town at that point, and I wasn't planning to kill BC anymore, it was quite convenient to take the off chance that he might be Mafia. If we were able to team up, that could be fun.
My early exposure, and LoR's accusation was enough to get me recruited Night 1. Mafia had solid hits early on, and everything seemed to go well. However, that quickly changed. I ranted on deconduo's decision to claim SK, but it was understandable based on bumatlarge's accusation to tell players with top drafts to type "Kill: Player". I thought the overall scenario was just too extreme, but there was no turning back at that point.
A cycle later, deconduo decides to claim to town that he in fact hit me that Night. This was a key turning point for me; I knew things would start to go downhill from here and I was really upset with the move. Basically deconduo, while his "SK claim" validity has already been briefly brought up, confirmed contact with the biggest Traitor candidate, me, where I did not die. This will raise eyebrows no matter how you look at it, and left me limited options to work with. Should I say the hit never happened? Should I claim Veteran? Can't claim RB since a SK hit would go through. Should I say another Medic protected me? Which is likely since I claimed not following the plan. Bah, It didn't matter. I was bound to die. The moment I die, deconduo's claim would be void. When my lynch was confirmed, I made that last post as a last ditch effort, to help the "team"; To create a diversion on the SK(s), to plant distrust, no matter how minor it was. The effect was minimal - "Town" doesn't know how to read.
On Night 5, I warned bumatlarge and HaploPaithan not to hit JimboSilvers, as he was one of our main SK candidates. At that point, Mafia needed all the kills they can get in order to achieve/avoid Majority. JimboSilvers was hit anyways. Regardless, it didn't matter as bumatlarge and Pigsquirrel were killed, and the game was officially over for Mafia at that point.
Ace already commented on Mafia's overall play, so lets just leave it at that.
When Mafia was all but gone, I was rooting for the SK. Besides BC, no one in "Town" deserved a win. No one. Some of these players shouldn't even have played the game in the first place.
I should also add that Ace has a (lame lol?) sense of humor. Both me and BC joined the game with the intention of destroying LSB's plan. Neither of us turned out to be Mafia/SK, and LSB, the person who promoted a "pro-Town" plan flipped SK.

How is 6 way too low for Day Vigi? It hasn't gone even close to that high in any game so far (18 in PYP3, 15 in PYP2, and 13 in PYP1).
You are very right. I had my train of thoughts mixed up there. It was like 3 am when I made that post There was actually a 3rd role I was considering, which is just "Vigilante". I didn't want to take Day Vigilante, kill BC, and sit on my ass for the rest of the game while taking criticism for sure regardless of what BC flips. So I considered taking Vigilante and just do my own thing, or take Traitor. Vigilante is what I actually meant when I said that my draft pick was too low to obtain.

That being said, if I haven't had protected kita twice, game would have ended sooner for town, so I can assume that my play was pretty much the best it could be. ^__^
(and by play I mean targets during the night)
If your intention of protecting kitaman27 was to stop him from hitting BC, then yes it would be a good play. However, that really isn't the case, lol.

Allow two Traitors next game. Madness solved.

Mafia had 4 main suspects for SK's the entire game. kitaman27, LSB, BloodyC0bbler, and JimboSilvers.
We, or me specifically, never made a direct case against LSB. Besides calling his plan dumb, to which I enjoyed every single opportunity to do so, it was mainly beating around the bush. As soon as BC made his move on LSB, I couldn't help but be the first one to jump on the wagon and get a free ride.
On a side note, I've restored my faith in humanity after seeing many of you agreed that it was a bad move for deconduo to claim SK. I felt so alienated when I was the only one to oppose that move.
