Yeah, you're screwed.

I guess I'd better start planning the sequel with a Mafia-victory. :P

Oh, come on, dudes.  Quit the yapping >_>

Town almost won with precisely the same situation in BMII, and both the ICs were scum (i.e., Webadict and eduren).  Just try hard, and don't rely overmuch on your (dead) power roles.

Oh. Wow.

Just.

Wow.

This has to be the worst town day 1 in BM history, for sure - we end up lucky enough to get two power roles, and lose them immediately. Since the possible scum roles are only roleblocker/godfather, and there's a max of two town roles... the rest of this game is pure vanilla.

I mean, I didn't think there was a huge chance of dorf being scum - high enough to lynch him rather than no-lynching, especially with that last minute no-lynch vote switch without an argument, but arghhh. I'd say he should have claimed, but I'm honestly not sure if it would have saved him.

Now we have a tough road... time to look back over the previous day with new eyes.
This is called praising. It's congratulating the scum on a nice Night. It's very scummy.

Looks like we went from Begginer Mafia to Vanilla Mafia in the sapce of a day. If they have a Roleblock/Godfather, they are now deemed useless (unless we have more than two power townies). I'll have to think this one through.

Erm...

I don't think that Vigs would be a good idea, myself... another NK makes all the difference.

Well, everything about the happenings of last night has been said...

Because that relies on PRs winning your game.

To be honest, if I purely did the roles how I would want it, I would eliminate the Cop role rather than add something else.  However, this is meant to simulate an average run-of-the-mill mafia game and cops are very regular creatures. 

Vigs are also regular but would make things much more complicated.  It would also be harder to balance since I always prefer a 3 day on average game and vigs mess with that.

Therion's right. We may not be able to detect any mafia, but we can still win through lynching. I will need to start trawling the thread. I'm sure there's something somewhere.

I agree. However, 20 minutes is hardly enough time to trawl a thread. I'll start now, but don't expect me to finish unitl after school.

Hang on one flaming second. I have just realised that Therion hasn't posted since page 6 or around that area. Speak, scum.

For the matter, I notice Akigagak hasn't been posting much, and most of it were excuses for being away. This is all nice and dandy, but we're here to play a game, not to make excuses.

Been busy over weekend, but I have to admit I expected a bit more activity when I got back.

That means there's not a whole lot of new stuff to go on, which means my vote is pretty much where it was before.

ExKirby, Therion just posted like 4 posts before you. Didn't say much, but still.
