The first thing that jumps out at me for the day post is that both BC and Scara "gazed up" before they died. This is either a clue or a coincidence brought about by unimaginative writing.  ~ | ||

It is a line from the song "Torn" famously covered by Natalie Imbruglia who performed on SNL. Also performing on SNL was the band Weezer who have a song called Getchoo (off of Pinkerton, their best album) which sounds like Chuiu. It's intuitively obvious. | ||

It's a valid strategy for Mafia but a terrible one when you are elected and immune. You are the mouthpiece for the town and should do your best to direct it. In Mafia 1, your Elders had the same ability as the Veterans in Mafia 4. In Mafia 4, Qatol helped with the plan that won the game on turn 1 for the town. Instead of trying to come up with the optimal plan, you trolled the town and brought suspicion on yourself while providing no sense of direction. That's really not what the town needs again... | ||

Contracts can be made in advance. - The events from both sides don't have to happen on the same night. This is a moot point for pretty much every other night but it was important for my plan. Contracts can be made indirectly. - The person making the contract doesn't need to have any special powers. I'll clarify this below with an example. Contracts are completely binding. - The CK can't decide to change his mind and kill someone else. Once the contract is made he cannot change his target. (Exception if he makes another contract, he can ignore the first one.) All three of these were important because my idea was to make the following contract: "I will influence the mayor not to use his instant lynch on you in exchange for you killing person X on night 2." This is big because it lets us make contracts with the CK without needing to reveal any blue roles. There was more to my plan involving incentives to keep the CK on our side but the entire thing was rendered moot when the CK responded to my proposal and said he wasn't the CK but he was just fishing for information. Very frustrating. I wasted a day and got behind on work for nothing. Hopefully this will help if anyone manages to interact with the real CK. I was so close to having my vengeance on Chuiu...  | ||

Then we watch and count hits. If hits are right, that vigi can roleclaim and volunteer they were vigi. They already used their hit so if they die they won't be that important, as long as the vigi makes list. Then we can stack medics and assign night roles to see if the night roles go through with it. If hits are lower than expected, we do a cluecheck on the kill and vigi, and that can be arranged through no dts saying anything. If the clue does not point to that person, we lynch them. For added safety, we target a high suspicion person, so if someone is faking big and be like "oh mafia blocked my hit" we will get a better idea of who are suspects without using a lynch. Then we tell him to do another high suspicion target, and if it happens again the vigi should be highly suspect as mafia. That's interesting, but I can see a problem. There isn't a way to tell a vigi from a CK without a role check. It seems as if your plan is trying to confirm vigis through clue checks without wasting role checks since, if this game is handled like almost every other one, the mafia don't get to decide which player is assigned to which hit meaning they have no control over clues. A CK doesn't have this problem and might not have our best interest in mind when people start roleclaiming... :x This idea can work, but it is going to cost us some role checks. The clue checks aid us in preventing the GF from hiding as a vigi, but we need RC to stop a CK from getting in. | ||

I dont think the CK can start killing asap without contacting someone to hire him, so im thinking its quite unlikely that CK will hit on night 2 and even then its quite unlikely that CK wants to get too much involved with the town to rolefake a vigi (im guessing he wants to remain as unsuspiciouly as posible). I like it, however theres still some minor problems, like the dt coordination and the vigi coordination (i think we dont want ALL our vigis hitting night 2). This idea was proposed in Mafia 5 (By Caller incidentally) and was shot down there too. It was a better idea in Mafia 5 too because the game was different. 1.) There was a Sheriff who could make the Vigi invincible. We only have medics. 2.) Role counts were known. Right now we don't know how many hits the mafia have, how many medics we have to stop them, or how many vigis we would need to cover. 3.) There was no CK. In Mafia 5, the only worry was the GF sneaking in. You think we should proceed by gambling that the CK won't beable to/will choose not to act. What if there is more than one CK? Our odds go way down. It was basically a gamble on the randomization of the clue distribution. If the targets kill was selected to be the GF impersonating as a vigi, we are royally borked. If the CK acts and ifniltrates, we are borked. It wasn't worth the risk in Mafia 5, and it is even riskier now. | ||

2 blues. Are their roles going to be revealed in the op or have you just not gotten around to it? Edit: I guess actually reading the post helps. 2 detectives based on the text. It'd be disheartening if it weren't so confusing... | ||

Mafia - Your goal is to eliminate everyone else in the town. Your ability, as a group, is killing off whomever you decide on at night and knowing the role of each other player in the mafia. You may not kill other mafia. Mafia killing power is decided after signups are closed and will be shown next to the mafia count in the player count lists. | ||

A special note on roles: All roles must be used at night and only the Detective clue check ability and Medic ability may be used on Day 1. Roles may be declared before night but they will not happen until night. The Mayor Role will hide the original role of the elected players so that a Detective role check will show them as Mayor and nothing else. All other roles begin night 2 unless stated otherwise in their description. | ||

On April 25 2009 16:27 Caller wrote: yeah, but death AND boats? Clearly the question is asking about the ride of Charon from the gates of Hell to the actual death. 2 problems with this. Coins for Charon are put ONTO eyes not INTO them, although you could argue that this is BCs grammar mistake. Perhaps make the argument while listening to your JUTE box... The other is the question has nothing to do with Charron. It's an exchange in the play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead. It is about the word play around the different definitions of being. The characters themselves are on a boat to England, which is where they die in the play Hamlet. | ||

You were a strong advocate for vigis PMing their hits to 3 people before the hit happened. Your latest post is written as if you waited for the clues and then decided to out yourself. Did you PM 3 people beforehand? If not, why the sudden shift between your actions and your words? I fought you every step of the way on this plan because a CK could get in. The only way around that is rolechecks. With 2 dead DTs, we probably only have 1 DT left if the ratios are similar to previous games. We don't have the rolechecks to confirm you without sacrificing our last DT. | ||
