Okay, a few things, first

It is 100% possible for there to be a godfather. I used Dakarians approach which actually DOES allow multiple roles per side through his software thing, and his instructions said the point was it would be random whether any given role existed on each side. Getting, say, all four roles is relatively unlikely, but certainly possible, and three would not be out of the ordinary. The chance is roughly 25% that mafia will have both roles.

Also, Halmie, your not actually playing in this game. So stop!

Oops. I actually did forget I wasn't playing. Sorry. My noob posts will stop here.

Bleh, hit preview insead of post

Quote from: Code
i say to you comma my brave fellows, that the scum in question is the man called spitfire. indeed i shall make this code a little easier to crack, that you may successfully catch this man whom I have copped!
I shall do this through using the fifth letter of the alphabet overmuch, as it is the most commonly used letter. Hopefully this will help you to find out what the cipher key is. I also shall give you a hint later; that the cipher is the socalled unbreakable cipher, the vigenere cipher. And now i must go, my lads.
Farewell!

I am a cop. Spitfire, theevilmonk, and magmadeath were all shown to me, in that order, as town.

Cheddarius, What were you THINKING?
 
You tried to get someone who you confirmed as town lynched?
 
But wait, that was day 1.
 
...
 
Can you explain your thought process?

It saddens me that only three out of five are posting.

Spitfire, I'm going to start harassing you each day that you don't post. Get in here and ask questions.

Monk, either get in here and scumhunt, or get a replacement.

... That's very interesting message. I was fairly certain that Cheddarius was the cop. Since I don't do deciphering: Cheddarius, is that really what your code says?

Cheddar claimed on day 1? That is quite a silly thing to do since of course the scum know who to kill... unless he IS scum that is.
I agree with Magma that Nir was not at all suspected upon by RNG (although I did state that earlier)
I am getting town vibes from the rest of the players, they seemed to be managing to keep cool under questioning, unlike RNG who lashed out on me after I voted him.

I was going to post this earlier, but got distracted: What gamebreaking cop idea did Cheddarius say day 1, or was it Siquo's idea?

I got an idea. One of us is probably a Cop, but can't post his findings because he'll get killed first!

Sooo, he PM's his findings, to the next person in the playerlist. That person PM's it to the next person, and so on, the last person PM's to the first, until the last person PM's it again to the Cop. Then nobody knows who the cop is, but everyone knows what he found out! The cop should watch out when he PM's, don't do it too fast or you'll give yourself away.

That's a pretty cool idea.
BUT.

"PMs: You may NOT PM to anyone except to me, the ICs, or from one mafia member to another. If you send a post to an IC or fellow mafia member, include me.  Furthermore, ALL discussion about this game, even indirectly, can only occur in this thread."

Yes, that was pointed out earlier.

Why am I the only one suspicious of Magma trying to lynch a nearly confirmed cop, just to confirm me as the only unconfirmed townie, when there could be a godfather nullifying the entire point of it? That seems really scummy to me, setting me up like that with minimal questioning.

I must admit I lied about copping Spitfire. That was first day - as you can see, I clearly could not have copseen anyone at that point. I was just trying to get him lynched, since I thought he was scum.
Then, Night 1, I got the message he was not. That's why I did a 180 turn and completely ignored him after.

Yes, my code actually does that. You can use any Vigenere cipher. There's one here:

Hmmm.  Are you an applied math major?

That isn't mine; I googled the link. It's second on "Vigenere cipher".

Erm, I'm asking because of the content and style of your posts.  Of course, you also sound a bit young to be in college... so I'd guess late high school.

Of course there's always the chance that I'm a moron.
