CD - thanks for the scenarios. I kinda get how the janitor is powerful now, and agree it's not worth doing.

 

That narrows it down to Bus Driver/Role blocker then for the third. I'll also take a page from EM here and lock in my vote on the first two now:

Vote: Godfather and Ninja for now

 

Also, since CD has a good analysis of what roles mafia would have given the town and we probably have a bulletproof - can the roleblocker block bulletproof? Vengeful explicitly says "Cannot be roleblocked", but bulletproof doesnt say anything like that. If every town role is meant to have a corresponding mafia weakness, it'd make sense for bulletproof's weakness to be the roleblocker. If that's the case, then I REALLY am unsure about giving them the means to get around our one invulnerable guy... thoughts?

 

Sorry if I'm asking too many questions; this is probably one of the few days/evenings I'll get to be really active here, so I'm trying to make it count :D

Well in my opinion, you can't role block a bulletproof person as his ability is not a night action but a passive ability.

Mafia roles:

 

Godfather (9) - Martino, ccabal86, AKCPLUTO, Kasabian, Chaoshawk, Kaziocore, CanucksDynasty, Electric Mango, Preston

Ninja (9) - Martino, ccabal86, AKCPLUTO, Kasabian, Chaoshawk, Kaziocore, CanucksDynasty, Electric Mango, Preston

4-shot Roleblocker (11) - KevinH, Kasabian, Chaoshawk, CanucksDynasty, ccabal86, Preston, Electic Mango, AKCPLUTO, Martino, Kaziocore, Nerau

1-shot janitor (1) - KevinH,

Bus Driver (1) - KevinH,

Day Rolecop (0) -

 

 

Godfather, Ninja and 4-shot Roleblocker chosen.

 

 

It seems that we had a few more votes at the end for the 4-shot Roleblocker.

I'm betting that a couple of mafia are in that mix.

I also take it as a passive ability as well but what really counts is how the MOD determines it.

If there is a cop, we need to be cautious about relying on the results since there are now known godfather and ninja roles.

I like to play "follow the cop", but I think this time I have to reconsider.

 

That said, if the cop roleclaims or is revealed, then those that pushed for the godfather and ninja roles will be a bit more suspicious to me.

That said, I doubt the mafia would pick cop as a role to grant so those roles do make sense.

Guranteed that there is no Macho Cop.

Almost slim to none chance for a detective.

 

If we do have a detective...he can still be of some use.

He should still see the 4-shot roleblocker, goon, and Godfather if they do something at night.

Also he might be able to figure out other townies with power roles.

 

 

Might as well get the ball rolling...

 

Vote: KevinH

 

Reason: it's part of my shtick :wink: (inside joke).

My townie list...

 

 

I think may be Townies

Martino

Kasabian

Kaziocore

Chaoshawk

ccabal86

 

 

Undecided

Curufinwe

Electric Mango

Nerau

Yahna

Preston

Deatvert

KevinH

19thSpecOps

AKCPluto

I think I'll wait to vote. First day executions are usually a shot in the dark and forcing through a vote early in the day seems like a waste.

I was going for the 'everything has a counter' idea, but that could be too - getting into action vs passive is a little over my head at the moment :-p

 

And now I guess the flurry of accusations begins? Also - when I read about the last game, everything started with sortof a flavor/npc event to get the ball rolling; I guess that's not happening this time.

 

Wow, CD already has a list @.@ You're picking up on some subtle stuff I guess.

 

Vote: 19thSpecOps, beacause he hasn't posted yet
Vote: ccabal86

 

simply b/c of that statement

 

day 1 voting is more fruitful plunder than anything serious at least during the start imo

Or maybe just overly twitchy/random stuff O.o I actually think ccabal has a valid point, or at least something worth asking - who else hasnt said anything yet?

 

Ehh... yeah, I'll wait a day or so to learn how this works before putting in a vote (there's no sudden death like with the mafia roles is there?)

 

If I'm still clueless by Friday or so maybe I'll use a random number generator, for today at least XD

 

-Preston

A random vote would provide some interesting information - mainly who looks to quickly jump on a bandwagon. With that said I still hate randomly killing someone because it sucks for that one person to just die for no good reason.

I checked, and he's the only one that hasn't said anything.

I would normally be inclined to no-lynch. Four mafia and eleven townies make the odds pretty good that we'll lynch a townie.

 

Unfortunately, it will be worse tomorrow after the probable night-kill and assuming there is not a cop, we won't have much more information than we have now.

 

If CanucksDynasty isn't night-killed, he must be scum!

Vote: 19thSpecOps, beacause he hasn't posted yet

 

I agree that on day 1 when "nobody knows nothin'", inactivity is as good a reason to lynch as any.*

Vote: KevinH

 

He typically goes on a rant about no lynching, clearly his change in strategy is out of character and he is corrupted... Otherwise I'd vote an inactive. So far no one strikes me as suspicious. There are people from previous games such as Nerau, Kasabian who are often silent and its hard to tell whether they are mafia or not.

I always act in the best interest of the town.

 

Normally, I would rather not lynch when the best strategy is to let the cop do his work.

 

However, in this instance it is very rational to assume that there is not a cop.

You seems pretty sure there is no cop , don't you?

 

Also ,you were the only one that voted for the roles that were more favorable to the scums, right? So that's what makes me think that you KevinH are a scum, for that reason
