Welcome to Chrono Trigger Mafia! you are Johnny. You are the leader of the robot biker gang that hangs out at site 32 in 2300 AD. As the fastest racer out there you may use Nitro Boost. At night you may choose to use this ability to delay all actions on you until the next cycle. You must wait an additional night phase before using Nitro Boost again. In addition, being the leader of the gang has given you quite a big head. Due to your enormous ego you cannot compute not being the center of attention. If you are not voted for or added to the party at any point during the day phase, you will take 1/2 of your max health in damage (this damage is unpreventable). You have 550 Max HP. You win with the town.

Best fakeclaim ever. Changed his active ability to my real ability though.

lol Risen was scum?

I thought after his Acro check he was legit lol. Got lucky there

Also iamp was alive the whole game and Hope had 1 HP for like 10000000 cycles and was still alive
wtf scum?

we knew he was on 1 HP. Cycle 1 was retarded with Z-Boson's "lolol, let's splitt up damage in 20HP clusters to confuse the shit out of town" plan. And ever after that everything went south due to protection. You can believe me, we tried to kill people off but it was incredibly hard.
Syllo was alive till the end without taking a serious amount of damage although he probably ate half our factional damage in total. Dieno survived for ages as well.

We just weren't able to kill people at all, which is fine for a resistance style game but for that kind of a game you need many active mafia players. Sandro was decent (until he got busted, which we should have seen comming earlier... Sandro is known to have troubles playing mafia due to his amazing town), Risen was good, especially thanks to the bus but other than that most people on team mafia played with the mindset of not getting lynched imo. Noone besides Risen in our team looked townish AT ALL and you just can't win a resistance game like that. We needed to get in the events but then again with this game dragging out so long getting into an event basicly means insta confirmed mafia.

I won't contest that I played too towny. I talked about that with Syllo. However, my wincon says nothing about Toad reviving, so once Toad was dead I figured that all I had to do was survive and my best bet for that was to help town kill Lavos asap, because he might kill me if the struggle lasted too long. I also saved what I thought was a heal for that occasion (turns out it was a heal), or if scum went nuts and wanted me dead. Then suddenly Toad got thrown back into the ring and I thought he might respawn with max HP and I'd be screwed

Luckily my new abiities were completely OP and Toad with 500 HP was killable in 2 cycles (assuming no roleblocks), even without town help. However, what would've been way worse is if town didn't trust me and kept me roleblocked, so in hindsight, even with Toad respawning and Lavos dying faster being bad, my assistance to town also ensured that I would at least not get roleblocked by town and just had to deal with Lavos' random roleblocks.

Don't know. I actually disagree with mementoss on that part and got to say I liked it the way you did it. Frankly speaking you were a town aligned third party, pretty much like the assassin I played in palmars last game. The moment everyone knew you're 3rd party you're save from mafia nighthits because they have bigger problems than you and once that's the case, all you have to do is make sure you don't get targeted by town or even lynched. So under these circumstances playing it too townish isn't possible imo :p
There's just no reason not to play it the way you did. You might have getten into trouble for playing less townish. Not necessarily a lynch at all, but roleblocks or damage on you from a few stray townies is possible.

Resistance games are playable as well. You don't have KP in those games as mafia at all, do you? Though the size of the game made this pretty difficult for us.

If I recall correctly (only played resistance 1, nothing else) it was a mini game and the events started out with 3 man. So maybe it should have started out with events of 5 people but other than that it was fine. You just have to play it differntly. Our team was mainly a bunch of lurkerish players not doing a thing. That works in normal games but it's not working in this kind of game especially given the size of the game.

We were already lynching Sandroba at the time. Perhaps from your point of view there was still uncertainty, but I think he was clearly in the lead in votes. I meant marv.

Yes my role was too strong as well, but your role seemed to make someone completely invulnerable in addition to providing a lot of information when people claimed being roleblocked. Not only that, but it lasts for 2 cycles and even if no one happens to visit it gives a free damage shield too. It's a role with almost no downsides no matter who you happen to target. Factional KP being unblockable somewhat weakens it, but mafia only had a bit of that.

factional KP wasn't unblockable, only untrackable as noone had to "deliver" the damage.
