Aragorn disappears, then suddenly no mafia kill? FOS at muffin, as well.

Scar · **Posted:** November 3rd, 2012, 11:54 am

People need to start posting, this inactivity will end us. Or save us in this case I suppose.

Muffin, where are you?

Yep. Aragorn. This late in the game, it has to be inactive Mafia causing no kill.

Market Man6 · **Posted:** November 3rd, 2012, 1:39 pm

aragorn seems to fit the bill.
The more inactives we lynch now, the less there are to affect the outcome of the game later.

Riptide · **Posted:** November 3rd, 2012, 3:31 pm

Aragorn. Definitely someone's inactivity to make the night last that long. When the other mafia were alive, they didn't even take a full day.

Saten Ruiko · **Posted:** November 3rd, 2012, 8:56 pm

In no time at all, the few remaining Villagers that actually cared for the fate of their Village came together and decided to put an end to Aragorn's life, hoping the lack of a death in the night was his fault, much like they had lynched A Vandal Root.

But alas, although Aragorn put up no defense, he was not the one they were looking for.

Aragorn Ix - Villager - Lynched Day 10

The remaining six decided to end the day early and spend some quality time in their own houses. But the question remained--would anyone actually be attacked tonight, or would the darkness pass over and leave them unscathed?

Night 10 has begun (ends at ~10:00 AM CST on Monday, November 5th)

Saten Ruiko · **Posted:** November 4th, 2012, 8:54 pm

The answer was no.

The five remaining Villagers--less than a quarter of the town's occupation when this whole thing began--gathered in the town square the next morning. They quickly identified the missing person as Tanksandguns and went to his house. Market Man approached the door and knocked on it, calling out, "Hey Tanks, do you have a Minute?" He turned to the others with a sheepish grin, but they all just stared at him blankly. "Be...because of, you know, A Minute With Mi...you know what, nevermind."

The scene inside was the same one they'd seen many times before. Tanksandguns had been stabbed in the night, with the black dagger left in his back as evidence.

Tanksandguns - Villager - Slain Night 10

Things were moving quickly now. With only five Villagers left, any three votes could put an end to someone's life. But...would that someone be the final Mafia member?

Day 11 has begun (ends at ~8:55 PM CST on Wednesday, November 7)
5 players remain
3 votes to lynch

So far we have seen the mafia take out experienced players, then the more active ones.
Why are you still here then?
Surely, with kikori as mafia he would have discussed/explained the threats to newer players like phantom. they should have mentioned you.

Scar · **Posted:** November 5th, 2012, 1:22 pm

Market, you are almost as experienced as I am, so is Ex, and Muffin may be more so than any of us. I'd venture to say I'm here because other than against Henry I really havn't posed much threat this game. With the Detective gone, and both Doctor roles taken out, all the Mafia person really had to do was sit back and post once a day or so to coast to victory.

Also I'm not sure what the third part of your post implies, mind elaborating?

As for the game at hand, Ex Rex, you were quick to throw out a vote for an inactive player. I think you are the last Mafia, and purposefully skipped a night kill in order to pin an inactive townsperson as the last Mafia member.

Also Muffin, what the heck man?

Market Man6 · **Posted:** November 5th, 2012, 2:21 pm

"with kikori as mafia he would have discussed/explained the threats to newer players like phantom. they should have mentioned you."

what i meant by this was that i think the experienced mafiosos(kikori, henry ect) would have been keen to discuss/devise a strategy for this game and they would have discussed it openly for 1)a learning opportunity(phantom) and 2) so everyone was on the same page.
this strategy would have talked about all the threats to the mafia... like top, lander ect. and i think your name would have been on that list.

the mafia havnt killed you yet. cause you cant kill yourself.

------------------------------------
also, muffin, we would like it if you stopped randomly generating your input. please contribute. or we will kill you. sincerely: everyone

Scar · **Posted:** November 5th, 2012, 8:55 pm

That's some solid reasoning, and I can see why you'd think that. But, as I said before I've largely been a non factor this game. As such, if the last Mafia member is less experienced as Mafia it would make more sense to them to target the people who are pushing for lynches instead of people sitting back not really doing much.

Everyone left alive has had a fair bit playing as Mafia. That noob excuse doesn't work in this situation. The fact that you lived this long, no offense, it kinda mind boggling. You are one of the aforementioned high-priority targets. Usually you're dead early on, along with Monk, Kikori, and/or Lander. Not to mention the fact you dodged the day(s?) where the Mafia got two kills cause of the sheer amount of villagers left.

I disagree, Market has either been Town or gets killed early when he is Mafia, Ex hasn't played in a fairly long time if memory serves me, you had a habit of rage quitting when targeted as Mafia in the past, and Muffin is in the same boat as Ex. I myself have had a string of Mafia games recently sure, but before that I normally ended up Vanilla town.

So I'd say we are all pretty inexperienced when it comes to playing the Mafia side of things, with you and Market being the least experienced.

And you both keep bringing up the point of me still being alive, yet you ignore the fact that I was not a good target. I'd done nothing to make myself seem special, I'd pushed against no one really, and during the string of multi-death nights the Doctor and Detective were still alive. Meaning the targets were more than likely going to be people who the Mafia thought were those roles.

We have plenty of time left in the day, so let's not rush to a lynch like we did yesterday. We all see what happens when one person makes a rash judgement and the rest follow, especially at this point in the game.

false. i have never been lynched once when im mafia.

Scar, I was waiting for someone to come out and mention their strategy to try and get someone else lynched.

Scar · **Posted:** November 6th, 2012, 10:18 am

Because despite being vocal you havn't been a viable target until this point in the game. You were cleared by the detective, and confirmed by Henry's push against you.

At the time, there were other, better, targets for the Mafia in the form of power roles. If I live through the day I wouldn't at all be surprised to see you killed if only to try and pin it on me.

*ninja'd by Ex*

Well...this sucks...

False.

Experience doesn't matter with these guys. All they really do is screw around.

That was in the past, during my first few mafia games. Now I've adapted to a new playstyle: Lay low and do jack Fuzzy Bunny

, which I'm not really adhering to at this moment, I know.

There's not really any pattern to who's Mafia and who's not, unless you're Tahu. Everything is random, and that doesn't stop you from being mafia.

I bring up the fact you're still alive because you're ALWAYS a good target. You're a veteran player, and those guys tend to go out first. Also, you've stayed under the radar, avoiding any attention from the detective, not the Mafia.

Your first post of today involved a vote for Rex.

If we lynch you and you flip town, it's still 3:1, in favor of us. We've got a 20-25% chance of getting the mafia. And yes, we're drawing close to a LYLO situation, but we're not quite at it yet.

EDIT: I didn't have a chance to post this before leaving for school. I think this leaves Scar at the needed votes?

Riptide · **Posted:** November 6th, 2012, 3:05 pm

WOW. Again. With the BBCode. I really should proofread a bit more.
