yeah LC only informed a few people of what their names was, like I atleast did not get a name for King 1, and I do not think I got one for King 2 either, but I guess he did that on purpose, I do not know

Anyhow GG all, and it was a fun one, but really sad if its this game that cost us you sonic from games in the future and you on CC.
And nice job hosting LC, can't have been easy with people being AWOL and others dropping like flies, but you handled it well..

I want to vote on the MVP as Ragian, it could also have been hjelp or kong, but I will give me vote to Ragian.

[Loose Canon]

ok still having problems with seeingwhat I think I've posted - more reveaLs

Annie had an AKA sgt Jane Akers

"Hi Annie,

You are a Town Aligned - 2 Shot Witness Protection Officer

This means you can send another player to a safe house where they become completely safe but also cannot use any night action of their own"

NEW DEVANTE had an aka Rita Bennett

"Hi Devante,

Are you still Ok to be subbed into the game.

If so my coin toss landed riskmaster so you will replace him.

You are Town Aligned - 2 shot teamaker

Twice in the game you may at night make a cup of tea for another player.
That other player will arrive at work the next morning with a cup of tea made for them, and know that you made it and that You are town aligned."


Now for the OCG

"Hi Ragian,

You are Matthew "Dot" cotton - The Caddy - Mafia/OCG Aligned

If investigated by the interrogator you return an "Honest" result.

You also have a 1 shot role investigator power - you learn the powers of another player - but not how they have used them.

There are 3 other members of the OCG
I will pm you as a group when Day1 has finished"

"Hi Kong,

You are Tommy Hunter - The Handler - Mafia/OCG Aligned

Twice per game you can Silence another players powers for the night

There are 3 other members of the OCG - I will pm you as a group when Day1 has finished"

"Hi Hjelp,

You are Jackie Laverty - the Money - Mafia/OCG aligned

Each night you can bribe a player so that if they are investigated they appear corrupt

There are 3 other members of the OCG - I will pm you as a group when Day1 has finished"

"Recipient: Kingm

OK, good to hear and you are correct.

The modreason was that General Cod did actually make 1 post on Day1.

I will post that in the forum again shortly - when I open Day3 - shortly

If you could post acceptance in the forum to taking on General Cods role shortly that would be great.

Your mafia aligned role assuming you are OK with this is;

You are Ryan Pilkington the BMX - Mafia/OCG aligned

You can track one player each night to see who they visited

There are 3 other members of the OCG."


One other thing about Mafia powers and its the only thing I didn't say to a player on sending out roles was DJFireside - tony Gates - would have given Steve Arnott - HomerJ a false guilty result had Homer investigated him


There's probably more to explain so I'll look out for questions

[hjelp]

Thanks for the game LC. It was really fun. The game set up nicely done.
MVP - I think Ragian.

[Ragian]

It was brilliantly setup, and I grew very fond of the game when I saw the show. I'm sad, though, that the game was hampered by three no-shows.

However, I really appreciate what you did flavour wise, and I can see your point about Tony Gates. While he's doing sine unethical stuff, there's no doubt he's town aligned. I did think about using him as a fake claim early on, but then people emerged with no names, so I just didn't go with a name. Lucky me.

Well done, scum team. I think we did well to distance us from each other. Told you Kong and hjelp were dirty!

[Charle]

Well done guys, Ragian surely got me confused!

[Loose Canon]

Its not the first time that Ragian has played a blinder as mafia.

This game he was ably assisted by the other OCG players. I thought Kong and Hjelp, and latterly King made Ragians play more effective.
- and I was privy to mafia chat too so I could see a team discussing and working things through.

There was a lot to admire about towns play too - irrespective of the result.
Annie - as a new player to me - in particular stood out impressively and cool headedly and made a great social contribution - and deserves a big shout out. Unfortunately the crime group was just too organised.
Sonic would be welcome back too, or missed if he doesn't fancy it.

And in contrast the players who joined the game but didn't play had a big impact on towns ability to get organised to pin down the mafia.

But yes I agree with the sentiment that Ragian would be a worthy MVP.

[annieh]

I think Ragian deserves MVP he did a great job of saying what I was thinking. Ragian is our true Kate Flemming deep undercover!

And thank you! It was fun my favorite part of this game is how I was so close to being right while being terribly wrong. Specifically, both the lynch and modkill being vanilla on the night we tested the no vanillas theory. And the wild role names vs character names red herring I created when I thought Charle revealed himself. I'm also happy it was Cod all along

Thank you all for not killing off the newbie first thing!

[strike wolf]

I mean if you all had listened to me about Kong and Hjelp...

Nah. In all seriousness, my attendance was shit this game. Gg mafia.

[Kingm]

Who host the next one, lets get the next one started.

I just love the mafia, even if I'm just a freaking 50% player, but I feel its better to have a player that is here half the time.
Like if checked out the # of post I had in this game, then I had about the same as most of the players that was here 100% of the time.

[hjelp]

One more thing - Mafia didn't know our team mates D1.

[Loose Canon]

And mafia weren't provided with fake claims either.

Various possibilities around Steve Arnott getting a false result on an investigation didn't happen.
The letter of the law would have given a true "mafia" result on a mafia if used on them.
As would a last ditch Tony Gates following being on L-1 - I mean DJF was on L-1 but as he would have died by committing suicide/dieing run over by a car chasing a suspect and getting pension for his family - I ended game when mathematically mafia couldn't lose.

As it turned out Town had at one point 3 confirmed town

Strike tried to watch Ragian Night 1 but I told him he saw nothing - effect of Sonic also giving hard cover to Ragian Night 1 - Ragian;s investigation of Sonic Night 1 went through though

[Ragian]

That night one investigation of Son!c felt really dumb when Charle revealed it to everyone. We were really behind D2.

[TrafalgarLaw01]

Agree, this was a messy game

[TrafalgarLaw01]

Thanks for hosting LC.

[SoN!c]

Thanks LC for hosting — you put a lot of love into the Line of Duty flavour and kept the game moving despite the no-shows and chaos. Appreciate it.
Sorry about the modkill and the role name mix-up (I never got the “Colin Brackley” alias in my PM, only the Firearms Lead power). No hard feelings at all, just one of those small things.
GG to the OCG — Ragian especially, you played an absolute blinder as usual. You lot deserved the win. Town had some bad luck and timing issues, but it was still a fun setup.
To everyone who said they’d miss me playing — that means a lot. But being called "annoying" more then once and why? For not gosthing???

Short, clean, gracious, and explains why im stepping away without drama. CU

So appreciate the short "calling me annoying for not ghosting": that’s exactly why I stepped away. I’d rather not play at all than half-play and let the game down. CU in the next life. Whenever? ...not sure even its in 100+ years.. getting called "annoying" tends to get that effect on me - see you mofo's

So not returning due to Traf's "vision" how mafia should be played by ghosting it;, have fun all!

and @Traf: have fun playing yourself in the end



ADIOS CABRON

[SoN!c]

Short, clean, gracious...

[TrafalgarLaw01]

At least read what was posted. Bye

[Ragian]

So, shold we wrap up this game and get to the next one? How does one vote for MVP? Do we just vote like voting in the game?

I'm sort of torn when it comes to MVP. I can see several candidates. Given the result, I'd most likely vote for Kong. He kept a cool head throughout and got away with what I thought would be a fakeclaim difficult to defend given the setup. Moreover, I thought his posts came off very townish. I could say the same of hjelp, but I feel that kong has the edge given the simplicity of his claim as opposed to hjelp's. However, both - and I'll add King Cod to that pile even if he wasn't scum for as long - were brilliant scum partners in coordination and execution.

That said, there were good town efforts too. Some were cut short by our night kills, however, like Homer. I think Annie stood out as the most composed town player in this game, and to some extent she was let down by absent fellow townies and muddied waters (to which, of course, scum contributed). She also seemed to have fun with the flavour, and I'm gutted she wasn't around for the black metal mafia.

There must be a shoutout to Son!c, too. Even if he got a lot of stuff wrong (the "if Strike's not scum, I'll never play again" stands out ), but I honestly feared for my scum life when he caught me in a fit of hubris calling the murder of Homer ballsy That was the catalyst for our cannibalism. Luckily, we pulled it off.

Cheers for hosting, LC. I really liked the flavour of this game and how you set it up. Moreover, I've completely binged the six series of the show during the game. Colour me a fan!

Now, let's get to voting and doling out prizes.

BONUS PRIZES

Image+ 1 Month Premium for all alive team members at the end of the game

500 Credits to all members of the winning team

Image for an individual winner +1000 credits

100 Credits for first person to get lynched.. because you suck

Surprise MVP Award, as voted by the players

How does the premium prize work? Is it only the winning team or is it everyone alive?
Was KingM lynched first? Brilliant if he gets credits for that and for winning as scum
Vote Kong for MVP

[SoN!c]

Yes i got a lot of things wrong. Mainly because town's utter dead silence. I did had you as scum early, then pulled away to re-engage again after that ballsy move. But whatever. Staying silent all game long and only doing night actions is not, i repeat: is not my style so with you scum and Annieh on your side we never had a chance. Well played, Kong and Hjelp too - master scum class with town awol (how i see it - too many silent players - just the way Traf loves it ?- others may disagree) but still masterclass from the original crew. And kingm as sub was great i suppose. So big congrats is due :

Still im out. I already posted before why.

[SoN!c]

So no need for a shout out - goodbye, it was fun
