Not today, or not ever? Or like a double life?

RRoy, would something bad happen if you happen to get the most votes?

If you really can't be voted out, in my mind it would be best to try out and see if you're speaking the truth, and we'd be back in a similar situation tomorrow where at this point I'm tempted to suspect CV over K-Ness (although I guess maybe K-Ness would be a more logical cult recruit).

A little part of me worries you posted that, so you would become a target and might be a Jester; but I don't think your play throughout the game matches with that (and I'm also not sure if a Jester is a kind of role that is used here at HCrealms?)

Presumably at this point I can never be voted out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am not a jester. It would just be a waste of time.

I don't see Cuban Vader appearing in any of the write-ups, but I also don't know why he would be mafia at this point. I'm honestly stumped here.

Sorry RRoy, I feel we've been wasting our time anyway

If you're speaking the truth, which I expect, it does not hurt; and if you're lying, it's the right choice anyway.
Vote RRoy

Don't know what to tell ya there. I'm the pong paddles. Not much I can do about not appearing

I get it. I've been wrong about a lot in this game (really was only correct on who the first three mafia members were).

Roy, can you explain more detail about your survivability?

vote count:

k-ness: 1 (cuban)

Roy: 1 (RRoy)

That is a distinct lack of majority! Nobody has been yeeted and the day has ended!

24 hours to submit actions, game will open sooner if all are received sooner.

Gameover:

The trenches had stopped being expanded. Four people remained, two on each side. neither side willing to give in to the other.

When suddenly Mario called out; "Do you guys a like mushrooms on your pizza?"

"ummm. I eat ghosts dude. I am basically always tripping out. Mushroom pizza can't be that different." Responded Pac-Man.

"Well, you see, I was a thinking of ordering some. Maybe we coulda call a truce and discuss it over a pizza?"

"... That's pretty chill. You gonna send the hedgehog or do we have to drag this out till the delivery guy gets here?"

The wind rushed by his head, and standing next to him was the fastest blue haired freak to ever grace the silver screen.

"Sonic is already a back with it."

The pong paddle came out of hiding, hovering slowly towards them. It was too old to speak, (having been developed before the mod was even born) but hovered with pleasure at the latest development.

The game has ended in a stellar draw!

The winners:

Cuban Vader, staring as the Left Pong Paddle from the Magnavox Odyssey! He was Cult!

RenegadeRoy, staring as Pac-Man from back in the hay day of the arcade systems! Also Cult!

K-ness, Staring as Mario, from the Super Mario Series! He was Town!

Stormcrawler, staring as Sonic the Hedgehog, created by Sega! A true Town Asset to the very end!


Thank you all for joining me on my first foray into modding! It was absolutely wild to watch from behind the scenes.

My biggest goal with this game was to see how I could get the players to change their playstyles from leaning on alignment cops and quiet day phases. Part of this was giving many players various methods of clue copping or tracking. I also included odd powers that would thin the ranks, but in unpredictable ways.

Bubbajunk? He was a jester, but only won if he was voted off as late as Day 5. But he was also an Emotion Cop. Which is useless to anybody other than him, since I knew he would ham it up and make it useful for encouraging votes on him late game. Then he was janitored night 1 and we both wept.

Darkstone? He was an odd Reverse Tracking/PGO hybrid. He would RT himself and the first person on his list of people who target him. Or he could just be a normal PGO. Literally nobody targeted him the entire game. Talk about wasted potential.

Quebbster? He rolled the SK role. But it was not your basic SK. With a cult, a Jester, a pgo, and the mafia running around I planned for the SK to have to really work to get his win. He would submit a target at night and during the day they would be in a pit. Being Silenced during the day phase with a majority vote to throw them a rope. If you were a vocal member of the town, it would be apparent if you were being left in the dump. But quiet targets, not so much.
He was also SK for theme reasons, since he is the only character in the game that is actually the physical game itself, not a character from a game.

Heroic had a hidden night 1 roleblock on his target. He had no clue that taking a kill action night 1 would block. He still did it. The madlad killed the SK night 1. Which caused both neutrals to be removed in the same night.

I was shocked. Mildly bitter too, but it made for a heck of a game. Imagine my surprise when Heroic kill the Cult leader night 2...

Thanks Linkor for hosting, it was very fun to play in! Very happy to have survived until the end.

And congrats to K-Ness, very well-played! (and maybe a little bit congrats to Cuban Vader and RRoy )

Congrats to the winners! I no longer feel bad about recruiting Roy and CV, nice work guys!

Thanks Linkor! Congrats to the winners and revenge to Heroic!

What a game hahaha. Thanks for running it, Link!

Honestly, cult may have been able to win eventually, but Cuban and I decided to end it because it would've just become a game of whack-a-mole for K and Storm. Essentially, Cuban had a one shot power that would reflect votes off of him back onto the voter and lock them for the day. So we were trying to bait a vote onto him yesterday... but it didn't happen. I think a getting a win that route due to town having to try anything after that would've felt cheap so I was fine with the tie.

I was certainly shocked to wake up to find Adam claiming my role hahaha and figured my time after that was limited. Somehow... it wasn't. I think the fact that the cult didn't ever reach kill status helped us survive for sure.

Hat tip to K who played a great game and had a bead on scum early and often.

It's over? Does that mean I can finally complain about how shorthanded the mafia was? And how 3 out of 16 is unquestionably too little?
