:D

Oh Snap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BaB and I formed a trust by making a pact. If one of us turned out to be mafia, that person would have had to do vodka shots through the nose. After Babs dies, Dyne used his powers to confirm.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

Btw I was actually honored that Typhoid killed me in the end. :D Dyne couldn't take the lead on this one, because he would probably reveal his role.

I thought it was a fun game, but I missed the classical speculation. This was just a matter of voting off people without any explanation.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

That's usually the problem with the good guys.
The bad guys start the game organized, they know who they can trust. Good guys have to point fingers while the baddies create misdirection

I tried to explain this on AIM, but it isn't anything personal. The seer can only Seer 1 person a round, and it shouldn't be all wasted on finding people to ally with.

With his first Seer, Dyne found Manasecret, which allowed us to gain an early advantage. With the rest of his Seer, he found no Mafia, but formed an alliance that would have the majority vote if it came down to that.

The good thing about Dyne not influencing others was that he, much like myself, trusted Typhoid.

Lucky enough for the good guys, Typhoid and I guess Jeepnut, decided to kill me off so I could no longer protect him from suspicion. :p

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

Oh thank God I can stop the rhyming.

I enjoyed the game and was actually surprised that none of the attempts to accuse me didn't take, especially since I'm an outsider to the group in general. I'm not sure if that was BaB doing or not, but I agree that he never asked the screen cap. He just asked me if I had a role. I responded by saying I was just a plain ol' villager and he welcomed me into the fold. Which is within the rules, I believe.

And TML, I always trusted you. Based solely on how you voted and how the mafia who were killed voted, I knew you had to be one of the good guys.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

And I likewise explained that it doesn't really matter. I didn't take it personally, I'm just disappointed that I didn't get to participate. You guys obviously didn't do anything wrong.

I think you just have a hard time seeing from my viewpoint because you were in on everything and made an executive decision to leave people out until they were trusted. Which is neat, it helped you win. But that tactic alienates people and ultimately kills the fun unless you're in on it. I've never felt Mafia was about winning, it's about playing.

Woot my team won! I guess my death wasn't in vain.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

I had an okay time this round of Mafia. I think the villagers just got a little lucky this time. I really didn't know who was and who wasn't and Jeepnut and Typhoid were kind of surprises to me. I was Seen by Dyne at some point, so that helped me join the "good" alliance and know what we were dealing with...

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

I actually had a lot of suspicion of Jeepnut and Typhoid. Jason and Mana was a big surprise to me though.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

Some big luck.
Found out Mafia wanted to kill me in round 2, but since Jeepnut missed the vote by 3 mins I was spared, wonder how different the game would have turned out. :lol:

Though still had Bond to continue my legacy.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

I got the impression that the mafia was busy in real life or something.

Anyway, best game is still the first one, The Thing. :)

Thanks Dylflon for hosting this one!!

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

I'm going to run another conversion game.

The Thing Mafia really was the best.

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

What possessed you to Seer me first, Dyne?

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

Yeah and why me second? Were we suspicious? And why did you never contact me?

Re: Mafia Round 5 - Christmas Edition
 

There honestly wasn't much to go off of first, so I can't really say. Same for you, Angrist. This was my first real role as anything in Mafia so I played it by ear at the beginning.

That's the nice thing about the Seer role - whatever you do has no consequences. Nobody dies. And you get to find out who to trust and who to kill. It's win-win. :cool:
