Turns out flavour has a subtle but important role. While I wouldn't put too much stock in those of us who claimed 'waiting to be rescued' (since it *is* right there in the first post for anyone to see), Cyouni, according to the flavour of this game, basically claimed scum (he could upstage Batman if he wanted to).
Didn't you give me grief for gaming the mod regarding both you and Iso being vigs, etc.?
If you're told who is going to be in the bunker & have a chance to re-choose your night action, that kind of guts any argument about scum coin-flipping who would be in the bunker.
This is freaking me out now. I need to find who put it forward, you or AI, but basically, you would have known that you can change targets 'if Bunker' & that either should have informed your analysis of the role (in which case you lied to us, if it was you who put it forward), or seen through the bad argument & commented as such (if it was AI who put it forward).
~digging~
I am pretty sure that I didn't say anything on the topic because I was making a deliberate effort to not divulge information about my role.
Just because a ability is not particularly useful does not mean it is not possible.
It'd be a complete detriment to any scumteam it was on. It's practically a deadweight. It's pretty much has to be used every night because it's so blatantly obvious, and can be denied by anyone it targets with no chance to respond, so there's no certainty and therefore no planning.
Except now we know you get to second-guess AND get told who is in there already.
Given how hard you pressed that this was a useless role, PLUS this nonsense. . .
Sigh. You still can't tell if the target you want is going to be in the Bunker or not. You'd have to settle for a secondary target, and that's assuming they even accept.
Didn't you give me grief for gaming the mod regarding both you and Iso being vigs, etc.?
Speculation is one thing, this is based on something in the thread. But don't hold me to this, it's very minor & I love gaming flavour & have consistently been burned by it. It's a minor point against Cyouni.
N2, I targeted AI, being the only other one in there. Got no abilities, so vanilla is confirmed. I got practically no flavour here, so I can't say anything regarding his flavour. I accepted the bunker invitation in the hope that Wheat would be there so I could copy his ability.
Read this, townies.
How does he know AI is the only one in there? Doesn't he have to fire blind, hoping his target is also in the bunker? So why target AI blindly, if Wheat is a bloody cop? Either you have to fire blind (in which case, why did he not target for Wheat?), or you get told who is in there (in which case the role is waaaay more flexible than he's argued). Which is it?
This doesn't add up at all.
APOLOGIES FOR THE QUAD POST. SOMEONE POST SO I CAN FINISH DIGGING & NOT HAVE TO QUIN POST

You guys ****ed this up.
"You guys?"
I'd still rather lynch Reya because I see no reason for Cyouni to have lied and I think you're over-analyzing his words.
I'd still rather lynch Reya because I see no reason for Cyouni to have lied and I think you're over-analyzing his words.
He lied because it undermines his entire argument about the uselessness of the role on scum, the same argument you barned.
Meanwhile, if you enter the bunker, you are:
1. told who is in the bunker
2. given the chance to change night action choices
Presumably this means the entire mafia has an opportunity to know who is in the bunker before night actions are locked in.
That's huge!
Christ I wish I had been paying better attention. We could have lynched kj yesterday. Iso would have likely vigged Cyouni, & I would have vigged you. Game over, town win.
& it's not like it was careless overlooking; Cyouni claims he bumped his head against this functionality of the role. . . yet then overlooks it when arguing how it works, how it might be useful for scum? I play maybe a game of mafia a year, & was in no frame of mind to play one now. What's his excuse? What's yours?
Sigh. You still can't tell if the target you want is going to be in the Bunker or not. You'd have to settle for a secondary target, and that's assuming they even accept.
No, I targeted Wheat, got the notification of Bunker, and told that AI was the only other person in there.
Action -> Bunker choice -> target change.
I would expect this to be Action -> Bunker choice -> target change (second guess) -> Bunker/Night Action resolved.
& even so, it still flies in the face of how you argued the role worked when you were going to bat for kill-joy.
Is going. Read tenses.
You can't tell the future and know if the target you want is going to be in the bunker or not. Yes, you know if he's not in the bunker, but by that point it's too late. You can change your target, but by that point, if the one you want isn't in the bunker, then you're SOL.
I swear you're reading everything in the most literal sense you can just so that you can misinterpret things.
Except now I've got a PM telling me the role works fantastically on scum, potentially allowing the mafia to plan around it, & you want to nitpick tenses on your flip-flop position about how the role works?

That's a tasty morsel to ignore, & you've invested a lot in that not being the case despite having that info allegedly waste one of your night actions.
We're idiots if we lynch anyone but you right now.

Flavour:
I cannot wait for Sonic to save me, I think it is cool the way he just runs in and beats the bad guys and I love helping him.
Wearing my Sonic brand baseball cap I pace about turning my official Sonic The Hedgehog Fan Club badge in my hands as I feel the excitement welling up. I know he will come save me soon he just needs to chill out during his break because he wears himself out after all.
I fully agree with what Ria has found. GG Unvote, Vote Cyouni
I mean saying that this is bullheaded would be being polite.
You're saying that I'd tell you, as scum, that I have a vig shot, and you're also saying that there's a bunker-buster with absolutely no proof, and you're saying that somehow...
Somehow...
Being able to lock in targets after the bunker is set makes the point that a person's inclusion in the bunker can't be predicted moot. Congrats, the person they were planning to kill isn't in the bunker, so he can't be killed. But don't worry, they can pick someone else inside the bunker and hope it's not their scumbuddy or themselves. And that's supposed to be advantageous for scum.
Do you have any idea how ridiculous that sounds?
Not to mention your idea of a bunker-buster completely conflicts with that, as there wouldn't even be a need to change targets in the first place, so it wouldn't need that to work well with scum.
And on top of that, trying to argue I'm scum because of a vigshot I told you about because of the mass-claim I was pushing for is just ridiculous. Not to mention the CC which makes zero sense whatsoever...
The apathy of the scum (Reya, and one of Auron/Allwin) doesn't win any prizes, but this is just patently ridiculous.

Also, Void needs to fullclaim because the mystery of the missing Nightkill remains unsolved.
I wasn't sure what happened until a few days ago.
G_R, being SuperDoc, protected me Night 1. Despite GR being dead I highly believe that his ability lives on and protected me again on the Night that Iso shot Kill-Joy.
Ria has struck gold and here is the chain of events from my perspective Re: Bunker;
1) Choose my target (And that is if I get my target PM sent to Eco prior to receiving invite for Bunker)
2) I am told who accepted the invite and is in the bunker with me. Last Night was AI, Allwin and myself.

That was my speculation. There is a post of G_R's that feels very apologetic, as if he was lamenting firing his one-shot super protect in a n00b fashion.
If so: take heart G_R! You cleared a townie & hosed the scum NK twice
Thanks for explaining why, I thoroughly enjoy and appreciate your irrational contempt for all things I do that are Mafia-related since I can only assume that statement is directed towards a combination of ria and/or myself!

HALF your argument is based off the idea of a scum bunker-buster, which is complete speculation, and something that ria's even admitted to pretty much be a what-if.
I don't even know what world you have to live in where a scum lies to CC a VT when it's nowhere near LyoL, tells the town they have an extra kill, and pushes for a massclaim to out his information for no reason.
And not to mention I pretty much have to PM quote and spell things out literally to satisfy people who want to make stuff up to suit their bullheaded ideas of how things work.
Oh, and when you're wrong, I'll have a legitimate reason to mock you for every game to come because you ignore every single piece of behaviour that exists to push modgaming.

Congrats, you just lynched the person telling the truth. Terribly smart of you.
I'm seriously hoping more than two of you are scum, because if four people think that a scum would counterclaim vanilla town, then scum deserves to win. Actually, that's true of three people, but whatever.

Wow. Alot has transpired since I went to sleep last night. I had suspicions of Cyouni all along as well, but it seems that Cyouni is getting the votes now. Unvote Reya
Since Cyouni is at L-1, i won't vote, but I will hammer that vote if need be. Anything else need discussed before we string him up?

Should you flip town, then Iso would shoot Reya, not AsianI. Or at least that is how I would handle the situation.
I don't particularly expect you people to handle anything in any way that makes an ounce of sense, considering you just lynched someone CCing vanilla town when we're not in LyoL. So I'm hoping ria will shoot AI through pure bullheadedness in the belief that he's right so that scum can hopefully win this as soon as humanly possible.
I'm seriously hoping that enough of you are scum to make this not ridiculously sad. Because otherwise, you really don't deserve a win.
No scum with any sense whatsoever would CC a vanilla town, and the fact that you can change targets once within the bunker has been blatantly obvious for forever and literally affects nothing. And not to mention you're even using the vigshot I told you about as proof that I'm scum, because of the massclaim I pushed for.
Reya Cookiebringer stands in the centre of the group and strikes a pose.
Over the gentle hubbub, he clearly declares:
"I am Robin, the boy wonder! Have no fear valued citizens, for soon Batman will be here to save the day!"
Cyouni steps forward and cries over the murmering:
"Holy imposter Batman! I am Robin, the REAL boy wonder!"
To Cyouni's dismay, his revelation is met with boos and cries of "shame!" His face falls as Reya Cookiebringer expounds upon his story, with Cyouni left pointing impotently as his Utility Belt. No-one is convinced of its authenticity, and Cyouni is crowded towards the makeshift gallows.
With the noose around his neck, Cyouni holds back tears. He must be brave, because heroes must remain strong even in the face of terrible circumstances: Batman taught him that. The thought of him so far away pushes the tears through his resolution.
With a jerk and a crack, the tear-stained look of misery is frozen forever upon his face.
Cyouni: Robin, Town Copycat has been lynched.
It is now Night Five, which will last up to 72 hours. Please do not post.
The mournful gong solemnly echoes, as the light of the new day filters in. Wordlessly, you trudge into the dining hall, now resigned to the delicious gruel.
None of you is surprised to see two of your number missing: Rianalnn and Reya Cookibringer.
Most of you are surprised that Ria's room is empty, the bed unslept in. The mystery is solved in Reya's room: the two lie on the floor, lifeless. Reya sports a burned hole in his forehead, where Ria's throat has been opened, the fresh blood congealing around him.
Reya Cookiebringer: Short Round, Mafia Infiltrator has been shot, and Rianalnn: Princess Leia, Town Vigilante has had her throat slit.
Back at breakfast, conversations buzz into life over the night's events. Another conspirator has been felled, surely there cannot be much left to root out?
"Oh Iso, isn't it wonderful?" cries Void: Bella Swan, Town Unrequited Lover "Another bad guy is dead!"
Iso, Jar Jar Binks, Mafia Supergoon mentally weighs up his options. On the one hand, he has a mission, an ultimate goal, a grand design that is already steeped in blood: to abandon it now would be unthinkable betrayel. On the other hand, he's the only one left: can you even betray a cause if no-one is left to fight for it?
In that split second, he chooses life over death.
"Why-sa of course it is!" he cries, and embraces Void. As he does, a great weight lifts from him: he has set off down the path of a new life.
AsianInvasion: Lois Lane, Vanilla Town; Allwinapprentice: Tails, Vanilla Town; Sir Auron25: Daphne Blake, Vanilla Town cheer their love, born of such dark times.
And with that, it all comes to an end, and not a moment too soon. The Great Hero Convention XXIV is also winding up, and I need some time to make myself scarce before they work out what's happened. The outer doors crash open, and you survivors emerge blinking into the sunlight. You realise that you (few) have survived.
But more important than that, you have preserved the natural order of things, your very way of life.
How Dull.
***
The town has Won the game, along with the Mafia lover, Iso! Congratulations to DRey, Drifting Skies Infectious Baloth, Wheat_Grinder, TheEndIsNear, Gaea's Regent, Digi, Cyouni, sXe Rianalnn, AsianInvasion, Tordeck Sir Auron25, Shalako Void, Allwinapprentice and Iso!
Full setup, discussion and awards are upcoming. Thanks for hanging in there, in particular the replacements who were instrumental in keeping this game going through hefty activity lulls.

So, you think you can do better? You think you can rise up against the shackles of tradition? Make a name for yourselves and claim the glory that has been stolen from you by these costumed and masked buffoons?
You can damn well try, but you can’t do it alone: you four have teamed up. April O’Neil (Kill-Joy), Jar-Jar Binks (Iso), Short Round (Reya Cookiebringer), and Luigi (Vishamon). Together, you can forge a new world of superheroes, as well as a multi-billion dollar franchise. The rewards are great, but the risks are absolute.
Each night, you may talk in secret HERE (You may talk during the pregame). Each night, you may choose one of your number to perform a kill. That player may NOT use any other action while performing the kill.
Mafia Kill Flavour: Cut Throat
You win when your numbers are such that you control the lynch, and your victory is inevitable.
[u]April O’Neil - Mafia Bunker Owner[/u]
On the surface, you’ve got a cushy life. A steady and exciting job, good looks and youth (with a lot of work every morning) and not one, but four heroic and badass ninjas to look out for you.
What people neglect to mention is that these ninjas are Turtles. Mutant Turtles. Teenage Mutant Turtles. Certainly not Prince Charming material, and not even Charming. They live in a sewer and smell like it to. Don’t even mention that Rat, the way he looks at you and keeps trying to touch you ick ick ick!
No. This state of affairs shall simply not do. This opportunity will allow you, April O’Neil, to rise above the chaff and carve a name for yourself as a powerful, strong, independent and - most importantly - single woman. In order to do so though, you’ll have to get rid of these simpering pansies who would never break tradition, and you’ll need help. That’s why you’ve joined forces with the others!
Bunker: With the Turtles away at the convention, you have total access to the complex sewer network they inhabit. Each night, you may select up to three players who are given the option to enter the sewers. Players in the sewers can only target and be targeted by other players in the sewer. You may target yourself. Players in the sewer will be told who else is in the sewer.
MOD NOTE: Players have the choice to enter the bunker and if they do they can change their target if they so choose (fair’s fair).
[u]Jar Jar Binks - Mafia Super Goon[/u]
Hello-sa! Me-sa Jar Jar Binks! Get me a drink!
You sit at the bar and knock back the viscous liquid. You shudder as the burning taste hits your mouth and slides down your throat. Say what you will about the ewoks: they look stupid, but they make powerful liquor.
Its been a long day. Keeping up that ridiculous charade around the jedis is hard and humiliating work, but you’ve got to do it. Stay “in character”, keep up the “tradition”, be the “comic relief”.
Well, you’re sick of it. Fortunately, this situation has fallen into your lap, and you have the opportunity to supercede those drunken idiots with their stupid glowy swords. However, you’ll have to get rid of those who do not share your vision of respect and equal hero rights for all; that’s no big deal, you’ve got a lot of pent up rage to release. You won’t be able to do it alone, and so you have teamed up with other like minded individuals: ___ and ____
Pent Up Rage: If you successfully perform the Mafia night kill twice, you will gain a single additional Night Kill that you can use on any subsequent night.
Mod Note: only unlocks after first two kills, not for 4 or 6 etc. Bonus Kill flavour is Beaten to Death
Mode Note: is a secret lover pair with the Unrequited lover, with a hidden lover win condition. This means that if all the scum but the scum lover are dead, the town wins.
[u]Short Round - Mafia Infiltrator[/u]
Indiana Jones: the hero, the legend, the daring and dashing archaeologist-***-adventurer. The moron. He’s so blinded by greed that he wouldn’t have any idea how to do good if he didn’t have your constant presence to nudge him towards the correct path. However, no-one recognises all you do: you’re too short, too young to have done anything. It must have been all Indy and his stupid whip and ridiculous hat.
This cretin who has kidnapped you underestimates you like everyone else, but you spy an opportunity to stand up (on top of a box) and be counted: show off your daring and cunning and escape this place without any help from that twit. If you take advantage of the situation to get rid of some of the simpering traditionalists then all the better.
You know you can’t do this alone, so you’ve teamed up with ___, ____, and ____ to get the job done.
Misdirection - People trust you. People rely on you. You can use that to your advantage: each night you may target another player. Each ability that targets that player will be redirected to a different random player.
[u]Luigi - Mafia Permablocker[/u]
In the darkness of the dungeon, you can see him, his inferiorly-moustached face floating inches from yours.
“Oh-a No Luigi, what have-a you got yourself into here? You need big brother Mario to come rescue you eh?”
You savagely lunge for the mocking face, it’s laughter echoing in your ears as it dissolves. Panting, you curse the name Mario. Mario the big-shot. Mario the hero. Mario the handsome and brave. You do all the heavy lifting and hard work, and what does he get? Stardom, riches and the girl, while you’re just the sidekick. The number two. He’s not even a very good plumber!
No more. This situation gives you the opportunity to rise up and step out of Mario’s shadow. Show the world which of the Super Mario Bros. is the true hero.
Shouldering your vacuum cleaner, you set out and shake hands with your co-conspirators ___, ___ , and ____. Together, you will dispose of these simpering traditionalists who praise Mario’s name. Then you can deal with him yourself.
Permablock - Your tireless efforts to suck up ghosts has left you with quite a bit of ectoplasmic stuffs trapped in your backpack. during the night you can let these ghosts loose in a player’s humble abode preventing them from taking any action. Once in place, the ghosts will never leave their haunt until you come by at night and suck them up. You can vacuum ghosts and target a new player in the same night. You may not target a member of the MAfia with this ability.
[U]Town[/U]
[u]Robin - Town Copycat[/u]
Holy crabcakes Batman! We’ve been kidnapped!
Not to fear though, the Dark Knight will surely come and rescue us, along with his pals once they’ve finished with their convention. There’s no rush of course, they’re entitled to a little down time: might as well just sit tight for the time being.
Of course, the Boy Wonder could easily overpower these no-gooders and escape, but you wouldn’t want to accidentally upstage Him. You owe him so much, and he really does just do things better.
Utility Belt: You are not defenseless: you’ve got your special-issue Bat Utility Belt to keep you safe from any harm while you wait. However, it’s an old and second hand model, so it requires some assistance before it can function. Each night, you may target a player and gain a single shot of their ability. You may only gain a maximum of one shot from each player.
Mode Note JoaT abilities:
· If the JoaT targets the perma-blocker, they gain a 1-shot roleblock.
· If they target the super goon, they get nothing.
· If they target the infiltrator, they get one shot of that ability.
· If they target the bunker owner, they get a one shot ability of “at night you may enter a secret bunker you found”. If taken, they will enter the bunker with whoever else is in there.
· If they target the vig, they get one-shot vig.
· If they target the Chronicler, they get a traditional cop investigation.
· If they target themselves, they can use their copy ability and a one-shot ability on the same night (easter egg).
· If they target the Superdoc, they get a traditional cop shot.
· If they target the lover, they get the option to commit suicide.
· If they target the watcher/tracker, they get a tracker and a watcher shot (bonus).
[u]Bella Swan - Town Lover[/u]
Gosh darn, you’ve been kidnapped. What can you really do about it except wait for your hero Edward to come and save you?
Wait! You’ve got it! You can wait for Jacob to save you!
Hmm...Which would you really prefer? They’re, like, both sooooo cute!
Your eyes glaze over and your fingers twirl your hair as you ponder the answer to this question. As your eyes lazily wander over the room, your eyes fall on a handsome and sculpted young...man. Perhaps not a “man” per se, but he certainly fits your type of being not quite human. Maybe you could just stay here for a while and get to know him. Edward and Jacob will be a little while after all....
Unrequited Lover - You have fallen madly in love with Jar Jar Binks (player). If he dies, you’ll kill yourself out of despair. He does not know about your role.
Mode Note: is a secret lover pair of the Super Goon. Is a townie, but wins like a lover pair. This means that if all the scum but the scum lover are dead, the town wins. Commits suicide if scum lover dies. Doesn't know alignment of scum lover.
[u]Cato Fong - Town Tracker/Watcher[/u]
The venerable Inspector Clouseau has hired you as a manservant and assistant. Your most important duty is to keep Clouseau’s reflexes and fighting ability razor sharp by attacking him unexpectedly and forcing him to defend himself from your incredible martial arts abilities. This is no easy task: he is so vigilant that only the most perfectly placed ambushes could possibly catch even a little unawares, and even then this gives only a small advantage.
Sadly, you cannot assist the Inspector during his conference, as you have been kidnapped. Until such time as he rescues you, you’ll have to spend the time concocting more elaborate methods of surprising him.
Track/Watch: In order to successfully ambush Clouseau, you have become a master of stealth. Each night you may choose a player, whom you will either Track (see who they target) or Watch (see who targets them) - the decision is yours. Alternatively, you may choose to forgo your night action. If you do, you may both Track AND Watch one player the following night.
[u]Dr. Watson - Town Chronicler[/u]
You are honoured to call yourself a friend of the astonishing Mr. Sherlock Holmes. While his methods are eccentric and remain largely a mystery to you, none can dispute their effectiveness. As a result, you have no doubt that he will rapidly identify the perpetrators of this heinous kidnapping, and rescue you with classic panache and swashbuckle.
In the meantime, you have your journal and you’re going to have a go at figuring the nefarious scheme behind this whole business. Best leave the escaping until the cavalry have woken up.
Memoirs: Each night, you may choose a player and investigate them, writing down what you learn into your memoirs. Upon your death, your memoirs will be discovered and read, publicly revealing the alignment of everyone you investigated.
u]Princess Leia - Town Vigilante[/u]
Sigh. You’ve been captured again. It’s a tough old life being the spirited and attractive princess of a destroyed planet: everyone wants a piece of you. Fortunately, you are certainly not one to go quietly, and those that dare to lay their hands on you often regret it immensely.
Still, it things could be worse: conditions here are nice, and whoever this wacko is, he’s a damn sight easier on the eye than Jabba the Hut. Maybe you could catch up on some reading while you wait for Han Solo to come and get you out. You managed to sneak in your laser blaster under your dress, so you can make sure no-one makes the mistake of trifling with you.
Vigilante - You’ve managed to smuggle in a laser blaster. Each night you can shoot someone with it, and they’ll probably die - you are an impressive marksperson after all. In addition, you have a single daykill which you use by posting Daykill: Playername in the thread; note that you cannot kill the night after you use the daykill.
u]Samwise Gamgee - Town SuperDoc[/u]
The dependable and lovable Sam. You overcame your humble and stereotypically rustic background and were instrumental in the arduous journey that led to the destruction of the One Ring that eventually freed Middle Earth from Sauron’s grip. You persevered in this journey through your sense of duty and kindness, but mostly love. Love for Frodo pushed you both through the pain and misery to complete the task. It allowed you resist the temptations of the Ring and to carry Frodo when he could no longer walk.
Even now, your thoughts drift back to those dark days, the only thing driving you on being the need to save your greatest friend of corruption and death. His eyes were the lightest blue and they would look at you with such gratitude and affection; his mouth, so perfectly framing his words; his thighs so shapely...
You shake yourself out of the reverie. No sense dwelling on the unattainable past, the present predicament is more pressing: you’ve been kidnapped, and with rescue some time off you need to look after yourself - and the others - in here. Frodo or Gandalf or someone will be along eventually, you just need to sit tight and persevere. If there’s one thing you can do, it is persevere.
Protection - You are naturally concerned with the well-being of others, and your stalwart and friendly nature helps you keep others going where alone they may falter. As such, at night you may choose a player to protect. That player will be immune to kills for that night, the following day and the following night. You may not use this ability on consecutive nights, and it cannot stop that player from being lynched.
[u]Ann Darrow - Town Vanilla[/u]
“King Kong” is a classic tale of adventure, discovery, compassion, with a side of “Is Man The Real Beast?” thrown in, and you are the leading lady: the central Damsel in Distress, achieving the situation twice in one film (three if you count being on the same boat as Jack Black).
And now, you’ve done it again. You’ve been captured and imprisoned against your will. Not to worry though, someone will be along to save you, they always do. Might as well sit tight and practise some lines for your big break.
You have no abilities.
[u]Mary-Jane Watson - Town Vanilla[/u]
As the girlfriend of a superhero, you have gotten used to being captured. Usually, its a trap to lure Spiderman to his doom, but very rarely do they actually succeed in defeating him. You know the drill by now anyway: sit still, don’t get on their nerves, gather as much info as you can and appear as helpless as possible. If they try any funny business, you knee them in the balls. Fortunately, most of these nutters are too preoccupied with revenge or some such, but you are an attractive young woman, so you can’t be too careful.
In any case, Spiderman will be along after his silly convention finishes (you don’t approve, but you have to give a guy some space for his hobbies). You are quite capable of sitting tight until he turns up.
You have no abilities.
[u]Lois Lane - Town Vanilla[/u]
Lois Lane, hard-hitting, hard-working journalist. You’ve also got yourself a hard-hitting, hard-working boyfriend: Superman. The Man of Steel certainly knows how to treat a woman, with an arse you can (literally) bounce bullets off; although it was a surprise that he turned out to be that nerd Clark.
Being kidnapped is such a common occurrence that nowadays its just a minor inconvenience. This modern technology means that you can take your work with you and just get on with it while you wait for Superman to turn up. These villains never do anything serious anyway: they’re all talk. This one sounds different to your usual “If I can kill Superman, NO-ONE CAN STOP ME”-type, but when your hubby is literally bulletproof and shoots lasers from his eyes, there isn’t much that really troubles you, apart from when he looks at women with his X-ray vision. How Crass.
You have no abilities.
[u]Tails - Town Vanilla[/u]
Oh man, you cannot wait for Sonic to come save you! Its so cool the way he just runs in and beats the bad guys, and you love helping him!
You pull out your official Sonic The Hedgehog Fan Club badge and turn it over in your hands, feeling the excitement welling up. He’ll be here soon you just know it! He just needs to blow off some steam during this well earned break. He does wear himself out after all!
Adjusting your Sonic brand baseball cap, you stand up and pace about. You just gotta keep things together until he gets here. Don’t panic and don’t screw it up.
You have no abilities
[u]Olive Oyl - Town Vanilla[/u]
Some mean brute has stolen you, just as you were enjoying some quality alone time with Popeye away at one of his conventions! But if Its not Bluto (it doesn’t smell that bad), so who is it?
You shrug. It doesn’t really matter who it is, Popeye will knock his block off: the only man in the entire world who gets the innate super powers of spinach by dint of being the only man in the entire world that actually eats spinach.
Annoyingly, Popeye will be a while, but no man will lay a finger on you, not as long as you have your frying pan to teach him a lesson. All you need to do is sit tight and wait.
You have no abilities
[u]Daphne Blake - Town Vanilla[/u]
Well gosh darn it, you’ve been kidnapped again. Don’t you just have the worst luck? At least this guy doesn’t look like one of those creepy stalkers: you’d hate risking breaking a nail, and blood would clash horribly with this purple.
You know the drill, at least. The gang’ll be along shortly to get you out of here before things turn sour. All you need to do is sit tight and make sure things stay hunky-dory.
Didn't you give me grief for gaming the mod regarding both you and Iso being vigs, etc.?
I'm vanilla and I was told at least once that I would be able to change any targets of abilities I have after I entered the bunker.
I am pretty sure that I didn't say anything on the topic because I was making a deliberate effort to not divulge information about my role.
Except now we know you get to second-guess AND get told who is in there already.
Given how hard you pressed that this was a useless role, PLUS this nonsense. . .
vote:Cyouni
That's not how this post reads,
I would expect this to be Action -> Bunker choice -> target change (second guess) -> Bunker/Night Action resolved.
& even so, it still flies in the face of how you argued the role worked when you were going to bat for kill-joy.
Read this, townies.
How does he know AI is the only one in there? Doesn't he have to fire blind, hoping his target is also in the bunker? So why target AI blindly, if Wheat is a bloody cop? Either you have to fire blind (in which case, why did he not target for Wheat?), or you get told who is in there (in which case the role is waaaay more flexible than he's argued). Which is it?
This doesn't add up at all.
APOLOGIES FOR THE QUAD POST. SOMEONE POST SO I CAN FINISH DIGGING & NOT HAVE TO QUIN POST
.
You guys ****ed this up.
"You guys?"
I'd still rather lynch Reya because I see no reason for Cyouni to have lied and I think you're over-analyzing his words.
paraphrase this as best I can.
if you enter the bunker, you are:
1. told who is in the bunker
2. given the chance to change night action choices
Presumably this means the entire mafia has an opportunity to know who is in the bunker before night actions are locked in.
He lied because it undermines his entire argument about the uselessness of the role on scum, the same argument you barned.
Meanwhile, if you enter the bunker, you are:
1. told who is in the bunker
2. given the chance to change night action choices
Presumably this means the entire mafia has an opportunity to know who is in the bunker before night actions are locked in.
That's huge!
Christ I wish I had been paying better attention. We could have lynched kj yesterday. Iso would have likely vigged Cyouni, & I would have vigged you. Game over, town win.
& it's not like it was careless overlooking; Cyouni claims he bumped his head against this functionality of the role. . . yet then overlooks it when arguing how it works, how it might be useful for scum? I play maybe a game of mafia a year, & was in no frame of mind to play one now. What's his excuse? What's yours?
You can't tell the future and know if the target you want is going to be in the bunker or not. Yes, you know if he's not in the bunker, but by that point it's too late. You can change your target, but by that point, if the one you want isn't in the bunker, then you're SOL.
I swear you're reading everything in the most literal sense you can just so that you can misinterpret things.
That's a tasty morsel to ignore, & you've invested a lot in that not being the case despite having that info allegedly waste one of your night actions.
We're idiots if we lynch anyone but you right now.
"& you've invested a lot in that not being the case despite having that info [& having that role interaction] allegedly waste one of your night actions."
Too excited, going to go swimming.
ria has struck gold. If Cyouni has a Vig shot then a false CC makes perfect sense. Which makes AI the bunker-breaking scumbuddy. Game over. Town wins.

Flavour:
I cannot wait for Sonic to save me, I think it is cool the way he just runs in and beats the bad guys and I love helping him.
Wearing my Sonic brand baseball cap I pace about turning my official Sonic The Hedgehog Fan Club badge in my hands as I feel the excitement welling up. I know he will come save me soon he just needs to chill out during his break because he wears himself out after all.
I fully agree with what Ria has found. GG
Unvote, Vote Cyouni
You're saying that I'd tell you, as scum, that I have a vig shot, and you're also saying that there's a bunker-buster with absolutely no proof, and you're saying that somehow...
Somehow...
Being able to lock in targets after the bunker is set makes the point that a person's inclusion in the bunker can't be predicted moot. Congrats, the person they were planning to kill isn't in the bunker, so he can't be killed. But don't worry, they can pick someone else inside the bunker and hope it's not their scumbuddy or themselves. And that's supposed to be advantageous for scum.
Do you have any idea how ridiculous that sounds?
Not to mention your idea of a bunker-buster completely conflicts with that, as there wouldn't even be a need to change targets in the first place, so it wouldn't need that to work well with scum.
And on top of that, trying to argue I'm scum because of a vigshot I told you about because of the mass-claim I was pushing for is just ridiculous. Not to mention the CC which makes zero sense whatsoever...
The apathy of the scum (Reya, and one of Auron/Allwin) doesn't win any prizes, but this is just patently ridiculous.
Also, Void needs to fullclaim because the mystery of the missing Nightkill remains unsolved.

I wasn't sure what happened until a few days ago.
G_R, being SuperDoc, protected me Night 1. Despite GR being dead I highly believe that his ability lives on and protected me again on the Night that Iso shot Kill-Joy.
Ria has struck gold and here is the chain of events from my perspective Re: Bunker;
1) Choose my target (And that is if I get my target PM sent to Eco prior to receiving invite for Bunker)
2) I am told who accepted the invite and is in the bunker with me. Last Night was AI, Allwin and myself.
3) Allowed to change target, if nessicary.

I snorted a little on this one.
Should I wait for a vote count or should I just vote for Cyouni?
Correct.
This forum requires that you wait 30 seconds between posts. Please try again in 15 seconds.
I don't even know what world you have to live in where a scum lies to CC a VT when it's nowhere near LyoL, tells the town they have an extra kill, and pushes for a massclaim to out his information for no reason.
And not to mention I pretty much have to PM quote and spell things out literally to satisfy people who want to make stuff up to suit their bullheaded ideas of how things work.
Oh, and when you're wrong, I'll have a legitimate reason to mock you for every game to come because you ignore every single piece of behaviour that exists to push modgaming.

I guess Cyouni, along with others, missed this post of mine. Cyouni, your time is up.
Vote: Cyouni
I'm seriously hoping more than two of you are scum, because if four people think that a scum would counterclaim vanilla town, then scum deserves to win. Actually, that's true of three people, but whatever.
Should you flip town, then Iso would shoot Reya, not AsianI. Or at least that is how I would handle the situation.

Since Cyouni is at L-1, i won't vote, but I will hammer that vote if need be. Anything else need discussed before we string him up?
You need to wake up some more Sir Auron. We're in Twilight since I hammered Cyouni.
Your unvote did nothing.
Oh :facepalm:.....I did just wake up.....
I'm seriously hoping that enough of you are scum to make this not ridiculously sad. Because otherwise, you really don't deserve a win.
No scum with any sense whatsoever would CC a vanilla town, and the fact that you can change targets once within the bunker has been blatantly obvious for forever and literally affects nothing. And not to mention you're even using the vigshot I told you about as proof that I'm scum, because of the massclaim I pushed for.

*******
Reya Cookiebringer stands in the centre of the group and strikes a pose.
Over the gentle hubbub, he clearly declares:
"I am Robin, the boy wonder! Have no fear valued citizens, for soon Batman will be here to save the day!"
Cyouni steps forward and cries over the murmering:
"Holy imposter Batman! I am Robin, the REAL boy wonder!"
To Cyouni's dismay, his revelation is met with boos and cries of "shame!" His face falls as Reya Cookiebringer expounds upon his story, with Cyouni left pointing impotently as his Utility Belt. No-one is convinced of its authenticity, and Cyouni is crowded towards the makeshift gallows.
With the noose around his neck, Cyouni holds back tears. He must be brave, because heroes must remain strong even in the face of terrible circumstances: Batman taught him that. The thought of him so far away pushes the tears through his resolution.
With a jerk and a crack, the tear-stained look of misery is frozen forever upon his face.
Cyouni: Robin, Town Copycat has been lynched.
It is now Night Five, which will last up to 72 hours. Please do not post.
None of you is surprised to see two of your number missing: Rianalnn and Reya Cookibringer.
Most of you are surprised that Ria's room is empty, the bed unslept in. The mystery is solved in Reya's room: the two lie on the floor, lifeless. Reya sports a burned hole in his forehead, where Ria's throat has been opened, the fresh blood congealing around him.
Reya Cookiebringer: Short Round, Mafia Infiltrator has been shot, and Rianalnn: Princess Leia, Town Vigilante has had her throat slit.
Back at breakfast, conversations buzz into life over the night's events. Another conspirator has been felled, surely there cannot be much left to root out?
"Oh Iso, isn't it wonderful?" cries Void: Bella Swan, Town Unrequited Lover "Another bad guy is dead!"
Iso, Jar Jar Binks, Mafia Supergoon mentally weighs up his options. On the one hand, he has a mission, an ultimate goal, a grand design that is already steeped in blood: to abandon it now would be unthinkable betrayel. On the other hand, he's the only one left: can you even betray a cause if no-one is left to fight for it?
In that split second, he chooses life over death.
"Why-sa of course it is!" he cries, and embraces Void. As he does, a great weight lifts from him: he has set off down the path of a new life.
AsianInvasion: Lois Lane, Vanilla Town; Allwinapprentice: Tails, Vanilla Town; Sir Auron25: Daphne Blake, Vanilla Town cheer their love, born of such dark times.
And with that, it all comes to an end, and not a moment too soon. The Great Hero Convention XXIV is also winding up, and I need some time to make myself scarce before they work out what's happened. The outer doors crash open, and you survivors emerge blinking into the sunlight. You realise that you (few) have survived.
But more important than that, you have preserved the natural order of things, your very way of life.
How Dull.

You can damn well try, but you can’t do it alone: you four have teamed up. April O’Neil (Kill-Joy), Jar-Jar Binks (Iso), Short Round (Reya Cookiebringer), and Luigi (Vishamon). Together, you can forge a new world of superheroes, as well as a multi-billion dollar franchise. The rewards are great, but the risks are absolute.
Each night, you may talk in secret HERE (You may talk during the pregame). Each night, you may choose one of your number to perform a kill. That player may NOT use any other action while performing the kill.
Mafia Kill Flavour: Cut Throat
You win when your numbers are such that you control the lynch, and your victory is inevitable.
[u]April O’Neil - Mafia Bunker Owner[/u]
On the surface, you’ve got a cushy life. A steady and exciting job, good looks and youth (with a lot of work every morning) and not one, but four heroic and badass ninjas to look out for you.
What people neglect to mention is that these ninjas are Turtles. Mutant Turtles. Teenage Mutant Turtles. Certainly not Prince Charming material, and not even Charming. They live in a sewer and smell like it to. Don’t even mention that Rat, the way he looks at you and keeps trying to touch you ick ick ick!
No. This state of affairs shall simply not do. This opportunity will allow you, April O’Neil, to rise above the chaff and carve a name for yourself as a powerful, strong, independent and - most importantly - single woman. In order to do so though, you’ll have to get rid of these simpering pansies who would never break tradition, and you’ll need help. That’s why you’ve joined forces with the others!
Bunker: With the Turtles away at the convention, you have total access to the complex sewer network they inhabit. Each night, you may select up to three players who are given the option to enter the sewers. Players in the sewers can only target and be targeted by other players in the sewer. You may target yourself. Players in the sewer will be told who else is in the sewer.
MOD NOTE: Players have the choice to enter the bunker and if they do they can change their target if they so choose (fair’s fair).
Hello-sa! Me-sa Jar Jar Binks! Get me a drink!
You sit at the bar and knock back the viscous liquid. You shudder as the burning taste hits your mouth and slides down your throat. Say what you will about the ewoks: they look stupid, but they make powerful liquor.
Its been a long day. Keeping up that ridiculous charade around the jedis is hard and humiliating work, but you’ve got to do it. Stay “in character”, keep up the “tradition”, be the “comic relief”.
Well, you’re sick of it. Fortunately, this situation has fallen into your lap, and you have the opportunity to supercede those drunken idiots with their stupid glowy swords. However, you’ll have to get rid of those who do not share your vision of respect and equal hero rights for all; that’s no big deal, you’ve got a lot of pent up rage to release. You won’t be able to do it alone, and so you have teamed up with other like minded individuals: ___ and ____
Pent Up Rage: If you successfully perform the Mafia night kill twice, you will gain a single additional Night Kill that you can use on any subsequent night.
Mod Note: only unlocks after first two kills, not for 4 or 6 etc. Bonus Kill flavour is Beaten to Death
Mode Note: is a secret lover pair with the Unrequited lover, with a hidden lover win condition. This means that if all the scum but the scum lover are dead, the town wins.
Indiana Jones: the hero, the legend, the daring and dashing archaeologist-***-adventurer. The moron. He’s so blinded by greed that he wouldn’t have any idea how to do good if he didn’t have your constant presence to nudge him towards the correct path. However, no-one recognises all you do: you’re too short, too young to have done anything. It must have been all Indy and his stupid whip and ridiculous hat.
This cretin who has kidnapped you underestimates you like everyone else, but you spy an opportunity to stand up (on top of a box) and be counted: show off your daring and cunning and escape this place without any help from that twit. If you take advantage of the situation to get rid of some of the simpering traditionalists then all the better.
You know you can’t do this alone, so you’ve teamed up with ___, ____, and ____ to get the job done.
Misdirection - People trust you. People rely on you. You can use that to your advantage: each night you may target another player. Each ability that targets that player will be redirected to a different random player.
In the darkness of the dungeon, you can see him, his inferiorly-moustached face floating inches from yours.
“Oh-a No Luigi, what have-a you got yourself into here? You need big brother Mario to come rescue you eh?”
You savagely lunge for the mocking face, it’s laughter echoing in your ears as it dissolves. Panting, you curse the name Mario. Mario the big-shot. Mario the hero. Mario the handsome and brave. You do all the heavy lifting and hard work, and what does he get? Stardom, riches and the girl, while you’re just the sidekick. The number two. He’s not even a very good plumber!
No more. This situation gives you the opportunity to rise up and step out of Mario’s shadow. Show the world which of the Super Mario Bros. is the true hero.
Shouldering your vacuum cleaner, you set out and shake hands with your co-conspirators ___, ___ , and ____. Together, you will dispose of these simpering traditionalists who praise Mario’s name. Then you can deal with him yourself.
Permablock - Your tireless efforts to suck up ghosts has left you with quite a bit of ectoplasmic stuffs trapped in your backpack. during the night you can let these ghosts loose in a player’s humble abode preventing them from taking any action. Once in place, the ghosts will never leave their haunt until you come by at night and suck them up. You can vacuum ghosts and target a new player in the same night. You may not target a member of the MAfia with this ability.
[U]Town[/U]
Holy crabcakes Batman! We’ve been kidnapped!
Not to fear though, the Dark Knight will surely come and rescue us, along with his pals once they’ve finished with their convention. There’s no rush of course, they’re entitled to a little down time: might as well just sit tight for the time being.
Of course, the Boy Wonder could easily overpower these no-gooders and escape, but you wouldn’t want to accidentally upstage Him. You owe him so much, and he really does just do things better.
Utility Belt: You are not defenseless: you’ve got your special-issue Bat Utility Belt to keep you safe from any harm while you wait. However, it’s an old and second hand model, so it requires some assistance before it can function. Each night, you may target a player and gain a single shot of their ability. You may only gain a maximum of one shot from each player.
Mode Note JoaT abilities:
· If the JoaT targets the perma-blocker, they gain a 1-shot roleblock.
· If they target the super goon, they get nothing.
· If they target the infiltrator, they get one shot of that ability.
· If they target the bunker owner, they get a one shot ability of “at night you may enter a secret bunker you found”. If taken, they will enter the bunker with whoever else is in there.
· If they target the vig, they get one-shot vig.
· If they target the Chronicler, they get a traditional cop investigation.
· If they target themselves, they can use their copy ability and a one-shot ability on the same night (easter egg).
· If they target the Superdoc, they get a traditional cop shot.
· If they target the lover, they get the option to commit suicide.
· If they target the watcher/tracker, they get a tracker and a watcher shot (bonus).
Gosh darn, you’ve been kidnapped. What can you really do about it except wait for your hero Edward to come and save you?
Wait! You’ve got it! You can wait for Jacob to save you!
Hmm...Which would you really prefer? They’re, like, both sooooo cute!
Your eyes glaze over and your fingers twirl your hair as you ponder the answer to this question. As your eyes lazily wander over the room, your eyes fall on a handsome and sculpted young...man. Perhaps not a “man” per se, but he certainly fits your type of being not quite human. Maybe you could just stay here for a while and get to know him. Edward and Jacob will be a little while after all....
Unrequited Lover - You have fallen madly in love with Jar Jar Binks (player). If he dies, you’ll kill yourself out of despair. He does not know about your role.
Mode Note: is a secret lover pair of the Super Goon. Is a townie, but wins like a lover pair. This means that if all the scum but the scum lover are dead, the town wins. Commits suicide if scum lover dies. Doesn't know alignment of scum lover.
The venerable Inspector Clouseau has hired you as a manservant and assistant. Your most important duty is to keep Clouseau’s reflexes and fighting ability razor sharp by attacking him unexpectedly and forcing him to defend himself from your incredible martial arts abilities. This is no easy task: he is so vigilant that only the most perfectly placed ambushes could possibly catch even a little unawares, and even then this gives only a small advantage.
Sadly, you cannot assist the Inspector during his conference, as you have been kidnapped. Until such time as he rescues you, you’ll have to spend the time concocting more elaborate methods of surprising him.
Track/Watch: In order to successfully ambush Clouseau, you have become a master of stealth. Each night you may choose a player, whom you will either Track (see who they target) or Watch (see who targets them) - the decision is yours. Alternatively, you may choose to forgo your night action. If you do, you may both Track AND Watch one player the following night.
You are honoured to call yourself a friend of the astonishing Mr. Sherlock Holmes. While his methods are eccentric and remain largely a mystery to you, none can dispute their effectiveness. As a result, you have no doubt that he will rapidly identify the perpetrators of this heinous kidnapping, and rescue you with classic panache and swashbuckle.
In the meantime, you have your journal and you’re going to have a go at figuring the nefarious scheme behind this whole business. Best leave the escaping until the cavalry have woken up.
Memoirs: Each night, you may choose a player and investigate them, writing down what you learn into your memoirs. Upon your death, your memoirs will be discovered and read, publicly revealing the alignment of everyone you investigated.
Sigh. You’ve been captured again. It’s a tough old life being the spirited and attractive princess of a destroyed planet: everyone wants a piece of you. Fortunately, you are certainly not one to go quietly, and those that dare to lay their hands on you often regret it immensely.
Still, it things could be worse: conditions here are nice, and whoever this wacko is, he’s a damn sight easier on the eye than Jabba the Hut. Maybe you could catch up on some reading while you wait for Han Solo to come and get you out. You managed to sneak in your laser blaster under your dress, so you can make sure no-one makes the mistake of trifling with you.
Vigilante - You’ve managed to smuggle in a laser blaster. Each night you can shoot someone with it, and they’ll probably die - you are an impressive marksperson after all. In addition, you have a single daykill which you use by posting Daykill: Playername in the thread; note that you cannot kill the night after you use the daykill.
The dependable and lovable Sam. You overcame your humble and stereotypically rustic background and were instrumental in the arduous journey that led to the destruction of the One Ring that eventually freed Middle Earth from Sauron’s grip. You persevered in this journey through your sense of duty and kindness, but mostly love. Love for Frodo pushed you both through the pain and misery to complete the task. It allowed you resist the temptations of the Ring and to carry Frodo when he could no longer walk.
Even now, your thoughts drift back to those dark days, the only thing driving you on being the need to save your greatest friend of corruption and death. His eyes were the lightest blue and they would look at you with such gratitude and affection; his mouth, so perfectly framing his words; his thighs so shapely...
You shake yourself out of the reverie. No sense dwelling on the unattainable past, the present predicament is more pressing: you’ve been kidnapped, and with rescue some time off you need to look after yourself - and the others - in here. Frodo or Gandalf or someone will be along eventually, you just need to sit tight and persevere. If there’s one thing you can do, it is persevere.
Protection - You are naturally concerned with the well-being of others, and your stalwart and friendly nature helps you keep others going where alone they may falter. As such, at night you may choose a player to protect. That player will be immune to kills for that night, the following day and the following night. You may not use this ability on consecutive nights, and it cannot stop that player from being lynched.
“King Kong” is a classic tale of adventure, discovery, compassion, with a side of “Is Man The Real Beast?” thrown in, and you are the leading lady: the central Damsel in Distress, achieving the situation twice in one film (three if you count being on the same boat as Jack Black).
And now, you’ve done it again. You’ve been captured and imprisoned against your will. Not to worry though, someone will be along to save you, they always do. Might as well sit tight and practise some lines for your big break.

As the girlfriend of a superhero, you have gotten used to being captured. Usually, its a trap to lure Spiderman to his doom, but very rarely do they actually succeed in defeating him. You know the drill by now anyway: sit still, don’t get on their nerves, gather as much info as you can and appear as helpless as possible. If they try any funny business, you knee them in the balls. Fortunately, most of these nutters are too preoccupied with revenge or some such, but you are an attractive young woman, so you can’t be too careful.
In any case, Spiderman will be along after his silly convention finishes (you don’t approve, but you have to give a guy some space for his hobbies). You are quite capable of sitting tight until he turns up.

Lois Lane, hard-hitting, hard-working journalist. You’ve also got yourself a hard-hitting, hard-working boyfriend: Superman. The Man of Steel certainly knows how to treat a woman, with an arse you can (literally) bounce bullets off; although it was a surprise that he turned out to be that nerd Clark.
Being kidnapped is such a common occurrence that nowadays its just a minor inconvenience. This modern technology means that you can take your work with you and just get on with it while you wait for Superman to turn up. These villains never do anything serious anyway: they’re all talk. This one sounds different to your usual “If I can kill Superman, NO-ONE CAN STOP ME”-type, but when your hubby is literally bulletproof and shoots lasers from his eyes, there isn’t much that really troubles you, apart from when he looks at women with his X-ray vision. How Crass.

Oh man, you cannot wait for Sonic to come save you! Its so cool the way he just runs in and beats the bad guys, and you love helping him!
You pull out your official Sonic The Hedgehog Fan Club badge and turn it over in your hands, feeling the excitement welling up. He’ll be here soon you just know it! He just needs to blow off some steam during this well earned break. He does wear himself out after all!
Adjusting your Sonic brand baseball cap, you stand up and pace about. You just gotta keep things together until he gets here. Don’t panic and don’t screw it up.

Some mean brute has stolen you, just as you were enjoying some quality alone time with Popeye away at one of his conventions! But if Its not Bluto (it doesn’t smell that bad), so who is it?
You shrug. It doesn’t really matter who it is, Popeye will knock his block off: the only man in the entire world who gets the innate super powers of spinach by dint of being the only man in the entire world that actually eats spinach.
Annoyingly, Popeye will be a while, but no man will lay a finger on you, not as long as you have your frying pan to teach him a lesson. All you need to do is sit tight and wait.

Well gosh darn it, you’ve been kidnapped again. Don’t you just have the worst luck? At least this guy doesn’t look like one of those creepy stalkers: you’d hate risking breaking a nail, and blood would clash horribly with this purple.
You know the drill, at least. The gang’ll be along shortly to get you out of here before things turn sour. All you need to do is sit tight and make sure things stay hunky-dory.
