No posts? Really?
Also, it's "Six Men Walk Into A Bar", Wuba.

Sure it is.

[Hapah]

I'd guess both, yeah?

[Bookthras]

No posts? Really?

Well, it's weekend. But also: utterly confoosed.

These deathless nights are weird. By my count: N1: no deaths; N2: no deaths; N3: Jim died and revived. What can this mean? I'm thinking the scum is not the traditional killing kind, but rather arsonists or something like that, and we'll all go up in flames together at some point. Or maybe a cult, but by this point it would be obvious if it was... I don't see it. Otherwise, it means people have been getting lucky with blocks and protections and not claiming it, but I doubt that'd be the case by day freakin' four. So mark me utterly confoosed.

It also sucks that both Dariush and penngo flipped town, leaving me with no useful reads. We'll have to work on that. Though I have a pretty busy weekend.


TolyK: please tell us a bit about how you came to be King-mod-and-überspeaker on D3, and what your second choices for your vote were.

[Jim Groovester]

I think we should mass claim. As the target of the night kill I reserve the right to withhold portions of my role.

I am Jim Groovester's Jimbot Army.

(Auto) Army: I have two recruits I can use to power various abilities. If I die, I revive at the cost of a recruit.
(Night) Camouflage: I pick a target and that target is immune to redirects, randomizations, and roleblocks. I can spend a recruit to protect the target and prevent him from using kill actions.
( ? ) : ??????: ??????????????????????????

What is this mysterious final ability? Everyone will have to claim to find out.

On N1 I used Camouflage on IronyOwl, in thinking that he was town. On N2 and N3 I used it on Bookthras, for the same reasons.

[Hapah]

Yeah, claims are probably the way to go! I changed the names because I don't know if I can quote them directly out of the PM..

I am Kefka.

(1-Shot, Night) Devil: Blocks all actions used against you during this Night.
(1-Shot, Night) Hellion [target]: Delays the target. If the target is targeting you, they are blocked.
(1-Shot, Night) Diety [target]: [REDACTED]
(Night) Judgment: This is only usable after you have used Devil, Hellion, and Diety. You kill everyone else.

I debated for a while on whether or not to claim the last ability, but decided to: we need to reach consensus on if/when I should fire it. I tend to agree that we have some sort of non-standard setup, so caution is definitely advised.

N1 I used Hellion on Penngo, N2 I used Diety on Book (more on that below), and N3 I used Devil.

I'm not exactly sure what happened with Diety; I apparently ended up using it on myself. I don't know if it was a redirect, reflection, copy, or what. If it landed on Book he would know, though, he would gain an ability.

Actually: N1 - none, N2 - none, N3 - none, N4 - Jim died and revived.
If they are arsonists, then I think with 6 people left and 2 scum and 4 nights... they arsoned people who were later lynched?

TolyK: please tell us a bit about how you came to be King-mod-and-überspeaker on D3, and what your second choices for your vote were.

I thought I explained it well enough... anyways.
My auto was activated when Dariush's game-modifying auto was activated on his death.


I am the Binary Eradicator of the Meta Roles
(Auto) Anti-Metagamer: I ignore game-modifying Auto abilities.
(Auto) Find by IP: I have a 1/10 (that is, 50% - get it? ) chance to <withheld>
(Night) Eradicate: I can remove someone's auto ability (only one random one).
(Night, 1-shot) Inactivation [target]: <withheld>

Hapah:
Your last ability seems... a little far-fetched, unless you're something like a watcher.

And where the hell is Irony? I want to ask him a question or two...

[Tiruin]

Ugh, busy as busy can be right now. Sorry for not posting earlier.


I am a Kitsune.

(Auto) Long Life: I revive once on death
(Night) Possession: I make my target immune to any kill for the night. If the target is hit by a killing ability, then I will die in his stead.
(1-Shot) Body Swap [target1] [target2]: Target1 switches roles with target2. I cannot target myself with this.
(1-Shot) Spirit Form: I am untargetable by all actions, other than auto abilities for the current phase.

I cannot (obviously) use Possession on myself.

I will withhold claiming what I used until everyone claims.


TolyK:

Hey, everyone, listen up! Your attention if you please!
Really wanna give you a warning 'cause I found out this morning
Of a dangerous, insidious player action

If you get a message with the subject "Take me please!"
Better not take any chances
Under no circumstances
Should you open it, or else it will...

What is this? Piques my interest. You sound like rhyming here.

(Auto) Anti-Metagamer: I ignore game-modifying Auto abilities.

(Night) Eradicate: I can remove someone's auto ability (only one random one).
(Night, 1-shot) Inactivation [target]: <withheld>

How is 1/10 == 50% ? 
And why are you mentioning only part of what you claim if you'll just withhold the rest?

Also, you didn't answer who your second vote-choice was in Book's question. Who did you target by the way?

And lastly, can someone explain arson to me? New concept I haven't heard in any game I've played in. Isn't burning someone equating to a kill, already?

So Diety was something that gave an ability? Also, why redact it?

[Jim Groovester]

Are all of you fucking idiots?

I will withhold claiming what I used until everyone claims.

Derp herp.

Since none of your abilities are investigatory in nature, I can completely understand why you're doing this, since there's literally no chance you could catch fakeclaims.

Claim your goddamn actions before I instinctively vote you for fakeclaiming.

<withheld>
. . .
<withheld>

Herp derp, yeah, claim half your role.

Good idea. Very helpful.

(1-Shot, Night) Diety [target]: [REDACTED]
(Night) Judgment: This is only usable after you have used Devil, Hellion, and Diety. You kill everyone else.

Claim the ability that kills everyone. Don't bother with the one before that.

That makes sense. True to the old proverb, in for the pound, not for the penny.

Did all of you miss the lesson in Mafia 202 where we covered what the whole fucking point of mass claiming was? It certainly was not to be cagey fucking bastards at milo.

Claim your goddamn actions.

What about protects? First time I've played as a protect - type including abilities that boost that protect, so hence me waiting for everyone to claim.

[IronyOwl]

Apologies for the delay. Still a bit under the weather.


I am the Offspring of Annie and Veigar.

(auto): Guardian Tibbers. Anyone attempting to action me actions Tibbers instead. This fails once Tibbers is dead. I will receive notice if Tibbers is slain, but otherwise could not get any information from webs.
(auto): Half-Yordle. 50% chance to redirect kills to myself.
1-shot, Night: Your Bear Tibbers. Targeted player receives the auto Guardian Tibbers.
?: I would rather not claim this, but I will if Jim insists, since he's both probably town and knows what he's doing.

I have not actioned nor been actioned all game, as far as I'm aware. Tibbers has also not been slain.


Hapah: Can Deity normally be used on yourself?

TolyK:

And where the hell is Irony? I want to ask him a question or two...

So what's stopping you? You've been faffing about all day, getting jack shit done, and now you need me to show up so you can ask me things?

[Jim Groovester]

What about protects? First time I've played as a protect - type including abilities that boost that protect, so hence me waiting for everyone to claim.

You failed to successfully protect anybody seeing as how you have not died and come back to life yet.

How is this knowledge going to help you figure out fakeclaims?

It's not. Quit stalling for other claims so that you don't have imperfect information when you fakeclaim.

Hurry up, Tiruin.

?: I would rather not claim this, but I will if Jim insists, since he's both probably town and knows what he's doing.

You're not special.

Bookthras, all we need now is you to partially claim and complete this farce.

Someone so ripped of BYOLOLC. Someone who is coincidentally named Wuba.

Also, worst town play ever. You guys are fucking idiots. /bah.

Haha. Very funny. You seem to be looking at it from a strange point of view.

What imperfect information do I have, Jim? I know perfectly who I protected and to say otherwise is just a farce. Also, you seem interested in those who haven't claimed, all except for Bookthras.

And you ask him to partially claim. What are you hiding? And how in the world can I be fakeclaiming?

As the target of the night kill I reserve the right to withhold portions of my role.

Also, why this?



N1: Protected nobody, because I was unsure about the outcome of the first night (ie working under the suspicion that the scumteam have powerful abilities in their hands - the appearance of someone reviving was also a factor in my indecision because...well, seeing others revive was surprising.)
N2: Protected Hapah because of how he presented his case against penngo.
N3: Protected IronyOwl. Due to (ok, despite) his shortness of posts, he's been able to place direct and thought-provoking questions in mostly every one of them.

Everyone: Reasons why you picked your targets?

PPE: Dead Dariush.

(auto): Guardian Tibbers. Anyone attempting to action me actions Tibbers instead. This fails once Tibbers is dead. I will receive notice if Tibbers is slain, but otherwise could not get any information from webs.

Thank you for including yourself there.

[Hapah]

Hapah:
Your last ability seems... a little far-fetched, unless you're something like a watcher.

No argument here. It is what it is, though! Looks like my gut feeling was right, though: It isn't the universal game-ender like it would be in a normal game.

How is 1/10 == 50% ? 

Binary.

So Diety was something that gave an ability? Also, why redact it?

Correct. And I'll claim the reasoning when I claim the ability, but suffice it to say I've got a reason for withholding the particulars.

And lastly, can someone explain arson to me? New concept I haven't heard in any game I've played in. Isn't burning someone equating to a kill, already?

May not be quite the same in forum mafia, but I imagine the idea is about the same. It's essentially a SK variant: usually has two abilities. One douses a target in gasoline (and they may or may not know they've been doused), and one burns all people previously doused.

Hapah: Can Deity normally be used on yourself?

Nope.

Did all of you miss the lesson in Mafia 202 where we covered what the whole fucking point of mass claiming was? It certainly was not to be cagey fucking bastards at milo.

Claim your goddamn actions.

In the interest of clarity, I'll put the claims thus far below. Still need Tolyk's night actions and a claim at all from Book. Bolded claims are 100% complete.

Jim - Claimed night actions, withheld 1 ability
Hapah - Claimed night actions, withheld 1 ability
Irony - Claimed taking no night actions, claimed all abilities
Tolyk - No claimed night actions, withheld 2 abilities
Book - No claimed actions or abilities so far
Tir - Claimed all abilities and night actions
