iPick [d5] 4/13 alive - Game over, citizen. Town wins.
« on: March 05, 2010, 07:40:15 pm »

iPick Mafia

In uPick, you send a role to the mod and the mod assigns powers to you. In other words, you, the player, choose your role.

This is not uPick. This is iPick.
I will control-click the "Random Article" button on Wikipedia 2N+4 times (where N is the number of players signed up) and select N articles' names as the role names of the players. These articles (but not which ones were chosen as roles) shall be displayed in the first post. Otherwise, this will work as any other Mafia game.

Voting: Place votes in red. Do not color Fingers of Suspicion. Do not use any other color in your post except where roles demand or allow. When unvoting, place your unvote in red with the name of whom your are unvoting.

PMing: Disallowed (Mafia ONLY, if Quickchat does not suffice)
Hammering: Semi-Allowed (Hammer ends Day, Phases are timed [48-72 Hour Days barring extensions or shortening, 24 Hour Nights, Weekends count as half their actual length])
Quoting Mod: ALWAYS Disallowed
Editing: ALWAYS Disallowed
Never under or overestimate your own significance.
Failure to submit a night action or to PM me that you are not acting at night will result in a modkill. No exceptions for town; for mafia, a prod will be issued. The night attendance statements may be lies/half-truths/bent-truths, at my discretion.
PLAY TO WIN!

01. Webadict
02. Leafsnail
03. SirBayer - Serial Killer
04. Mr.Person

06. Dakarian - Jester Victorious
07. Jokerman-EXE - Survivor, Victorious
08. Nirur Torir
09. Eduren
10. ToonyMan
11. tehstefan

Possible roles:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Day 1: Nirur Torir self-hammers
Quote
Nirur Torir - Townie, Jacob (Henriquez) de Castro Sarmento
  You are a Portuguese physician, naturalist, and poet. You are a medicinally talented individual and if you visit somebody at night, you can perform SCIENCE on them to save them from being killed. If they're killed. If they're not, you might get a bit overeager and accidentally perform a "medical misadventure" on them, though....
  You win when all scum are dead.

This player did not know his BOOSTed power.

Night 1:
Quote
Leafsnail - Townie, Blackwood-Harwood Plantations Cemetery
  You are a historic cemetery. All players who die in this game are buried on your grounds, and as long as you are alive you may communicate freely with them. Once per game, you can can use your extensive experience with dead people to determine whether a particular string of uninterrupted words of any length is entirely truthful or not entirely truthful. Despite, y'know. Being a cemetery.
  You win when all scum are dead.

This player did not know his BOOSTed power.

Day 2:
Quote
Dakarian- Jester, WAO!! (album)
  OH GOD THE ENGRISH MAKE IT GO AWAY. You are an album by a J-ska band. And guess what, YOU'RE A GODDAMN SLEEPING GOD BECAUSE I HAVE AN IRRATIONAL LOVE FOR INCLUSION OF SLEEPING GODS! Check your wikipedia article for the tracklist, which is your list of abilities. Oh, and because random.org gave you a "third party" draw, you're a Jester. Being responsible for those damn rules should make it easier for you to get lynched, though. Good luck!
  You win when you are lynched.

This player did not know his BOOSTed power.

Night 2:
Quote
Mr.Person - Townie, Rayman Ravings Rabbids TV Party
  DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA the chaos and confusion you cause allow you to redirect DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA any player to any player DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA but you can't target yourself.
  You win when all scum are DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (dead).

This player did not know his BOOSTed power

Day 3:
Quote
ToonyMan - Mafia, Jan Inge Sørbø
  You are a Norwegian philologist, author, and poet. You may read your poetry to someone, consuming their night. Their action will be delayed to the next night. You are also immune to being delayed.
  You win when it is impossible for you to lose.

[Boost: You feel your voice... volume... increasing substantially. You can read your poetry to any number of people, roleblocking them, but everyone you block will recognize your voice the next day. You retain your delay ability.]

Night 3: Jokerman-EXE has entirely disappeared from existence!

Day 4: Modkilled for inactivity:
Quote
Diakron - Mafia, Input Selection
  You are a mathematical modelling and system identification term. Each night, you are told what actions are targeted on you. You may convert any of these actions into any other of the actions performed on you. i.e. You are naively investigated, protected, and killed. You can convert the kill and the protection into a naive investigation. This means you are effectively kill-immune as long as you are not only targeted by kills. If you are able to experience four BOOSTs simultaneously, you ascend to godhood and leave the game. This is a win for you that does not affect any other player.
  You win when it is impossible for you to lose.

When BOOSTed, you gain this ability:
[Boost: You may, in place of taking a night action, lose only one of the BOOSTs applied to you (if you have two or more).]

Quote
CobaltKobold - Townie, Hai-Fu Power Station
  You are a Japanese powerplant. Each night you may give POWER to any single targeted player. This player will have enough POWER to be BOOSTed for the following day and night, and gain a BOOSTed version of their role for that duration.
  You win when all scum are dead.

This player did not know his BOOSTed power

Lynched:

Quote
SirBayer - Serial Killer, Young Love <Doomspeaker Whatever would be a thing that kills everyone else after X nights>
  You are an album of terrible music. You are an abomination and on the third night, your music will begin to be played. And everyone will die.
  You win when everyone besides you is dead.

This player did not know his BOOSTed power.

Night 4:

Nothing to see, citizen. Move along.

Day 5:

Quote
Eduren - Mafia, Every Child (film)
  You are a depressing movie ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCmU3j6AASo ) with an uplifting end asking for donations. You may arrange a viewing for someone, roleblocking them as they watch you (and depressing them for the rest of the night). They will then donate enough money for you to BOOST any player that night.

This player did not know his BOOSTed power.

WEBADICT, I AM VOTING YOU FOR A BULLSHIT REASON FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS

1. GETTING THE CONVERSATION GOING.
2. SEEING HOW YOU REACT TO GETTING VOTED

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

I think that's called a random vote. I'm still new though. :P

Maybe I can actually live long enough to learn something, this game.

Possible Interpretations:
  • Unfinalized rule (now likely)
  • Bullshit Bastardry to distract the town
  • Limited Exceptions to Rule

Well, you selected one of the possible interpretations and then the mod confirmed it, in a way suggesting that you knew this stuff. But, there are other reasons that could be. Like you asking him about it in PM. So it's the randomvotepicker.

So, Leafy, welche ,,Roles'' möchtest du?

I'm going to warn you of two things:

1) They were related to abilties I was considering, removed during the balance phase. Neither one is possible, so he could not have a role allowing him to.

2) Trying that manner of meta is possible or likely to backfire.
