I was 50/50 on that, or just plain holding the kill.

God bless those 3ps! People are too hard on them these days, just because a mean host basically set us up to lose to one. Or something like that.

I'll always be a staunch 3p fan and supporter.

Marmot wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 8:22 pm It's hard to say so in hindsight, but do you think I'm still yeeted when I was if Gavial didn't accidentally get a track on where I went (or rather where I didn't go)? I think I at least survive another day, which also would've increased our chances of winning.


Good game town! It's probably karma that a 3P finally accidentally assisted in a town win rather than stealing it from them

@Timsup2nothin ♡♡♡

I'm sorry I voted to lynch u.

I would have let u kill me tonight. u should have said.

it was fun playing with u. it seemed like you chose to help town. thanks for choosing town.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 7:35 pm After Radiohead, I wanted to make a game where the mafia team had a shared pool of abilities, rather than everyone being assigned their own ability. I'd also just kind of always wanted to run a general Elder Scrolls themed game, and the idea for shrines jumped out naturally to me as a thematic fit for that mechanic. And I liked it so much that I decided it worked for the whole game.

I wanted to make it another game that blended the old school syndicate style of playing without relying on claims with the newer trends centered around playing with claims. There were both direct and indirect claim deterrents. The Razor was obviously a direct deterrent. Indirectly, there were so many abilities out there, and so many of them only incidentally useful, that the potential benefit of claiming was relatively limited unless the information was very pertinent. Players would be receiving some information on their own, but it would not really be useful enough to necessitate sharing on its own. And then there were also a lot of abilities repeated across both alignments, just to muddy the waters a little bit more. The game was a bit convoluted by design.

Syn's role was the only one that I felt could have been exploited to be more powerful than it was intended, but that was nullified some because he was killed the instant he claimed it, so maybe it really wasn't all that powerful in the end.

I felt like the game played out well and everyone had a fair shot at winning. I welcome feedback.

TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Thu Jun 03, 2021 11:23 am If we sleep here:


Daisy cop Tim
LC get Daisy’s result
Vul go to power restore shrine
Gav track Vul
Tim go to the power restore shrine
TSP watch power restore shrine (double backup)

Two checks, both checks have verification

I think we go with this but
@Gavial can you remind me of your powers again

also I am doc/healer. sk, test your luck and please take a shot at me tonight. thanks ♡

what we could do is Gav RTs a shrine, we send vul and Tim for the same shrine. I can check a shrine for the 3p, I check that shrine. Daisy cops like LC or something idk, and then LC goes to my shrine to get my result. Feels like we always get a poe of two here.

I’ll Track someone.

No don’t do that necessarily

Timsup2nothin wrote: ↑Wed Jun 02, 2021 5:48 pm Well, my internet got sacrificed to the Daedra, but has recovered. I assume Tony has a plan to mech lock the win here? And I'm guessing it involves

[VOTE: sleep] aubergine

so I will. I have about a thousand things to catch up on that are less simple, but will try to get back in time to at least read up.

could it be possible? maybe but I never heard of an exe thst could kill at nite. if this game was being played in my discord community I would believe it. we like mixing roles and modifying them.


think this 3rd party is sk.

think it's tim. maybe Vulgard.

if not them then I'm going with lc or Tony.

omg, I swear if im in final 3 with gavial I'm yeeting him. and I gonna believe I got the negative bol's champion because he is immune to checks or something.

if gavial is town then okay my bad

Daisy you just named the entire town

that was my order list. I suppose that wasn't perfectly clear.

I think it's just tim tho

Chaos
Shegorath
No Action

No action
Found out info about Vulgard
No action

And I think one of those no actions I might have done something worthless but I don’t remember what

That feels passive aggressive but whatever

TonyStarkPrime wrote: ↑Wed Jun 02, 2021 7:41 am He doesn’t have the straight up ability but he can come close

wait. im asking host what shrines i can access tonight.

what i have:

Azura: if I die can leave a will/in game death posts via 1 in game related post

^ never used this

okay so hard claiming:

i am Town
my shrines: Hermaeus Mora, Mephala, Namira, Nocturnal, Sheogorath, Azura

nite 1: my pm i sent out got yeeted into the void so I did nothing

nite 2: went to Namira, Scotty isn't Molag Bal's Champion

nite 3: went to Mephala target was Gavial he was role blocked

nite 4: Nocturnal shrine, target was Marmot and they visited nobody

nite 5: went to Namira and targeted Gavial, he isn't Molag Bal's champion

nite 6: went to shigorarth/chaos was blessed to post about pies

nite 7: went to Nocturnal shrine and target was Tim and he visited Molag Bal's shrine

I think I got the order of my nite actions correctly.


I have listed all my actions and results severely times in game. I made several posts about them separately too.

idk why you think I have been withholding information.

look at my iso. multiple times I listed my results.

I didn't say what shrines because mafia was still alive and can kill me.

I think 3rd party is going to kill me now.

I think scotty was right about 3rd party needs to kill a certain race. or a particular player. I think it's me.

actually I just cut that part of my claim out.


I have been nothing but town. im not using AtE. I haven't weaponized AtE.

if I seem townie in a post it is because I am town. ffs

and no, this post has 0 AtE

So we have arrived at the N3 killed...on Mac, who was mafia...was done by Falcon, who was mafia. Well that would explain why he never countered my claim.

why would mafia kill one of their own?

They wouldn't. But that apparently doesn't matter to Gavial.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Sat May 22, 2021 7:06 pm Day 4 has ended.

falcon45ca has been eliminated. He was the Redguard Mercenary and Mehrunes Dagon's champion.

Spoiler: show

Redguard Mercenary
Race: Redguard
Alignment: Mafia
Designated Shrines: Boethiah, Malacath, Mehrunes Dagon, Mephala, Nocturnal, Sheogorath
Boethiah - You may target a player to roleblock them that Night.
Malacath - Your vote will be worth 2 the following Day.
Mehrunes Dagon - You may target a Shrine. Up to 2 players (excluding yourself) accessing that Shrine that Night will be identified to you.
Nocturnal - You will watch yourself to learn what abilities you are targeted with. You will not be informed of any player’s identities targeting you. You will not see your own action in your report.
Sheogorath - Chaos.
You may not visit the same shrine twice during any 3-night span. For example, if you visit Sheogorath’s Shrine on Night 1, you may not access it again until Night 4.

You are also Mehrunes Dagon’s Champion. You cannot be nightkilled by normal means.
You wield the Artifact Mehrunes’ Razor.

Five times during the game, the wielder of Mehrunes’ Razor can attempt a kill with the Artifact. A kill attempt with Mehrunes’ Razor is unblockable.
If the attempt is successful, the targeted player will die.
If the attempt is unsuccessful, nothing will happen and the shot will be spent.
Kill attempts with Mehrunes’ Razor will only be successful if the targeted player is wielding an Artifact. Any Artifacts in that player’s possession will pass into the possession of the Mafia team if, and only if, they are killed via Mehrunes’ Razor.
The first successful kill with Mehrunes’ Razor will be carried out separately, and in addition to, your team’s factional kill. Subsequent kill attempts will supersede the factional kill if they are successful (Your team may target the same player with both the factional kill and the Razor kill on the same night).
On the third unsuccessful attempt with Mehrunes’ Razor, it will pass into the possession of the last player targeted. In that player’s possession, the Razor will be a 1-shot item to be used immediately during the proceeding night phase.
If Mehrunes’ Champion dies with multiple shots remaining on the Razor, it will remain in the possession of the Mafia team, with one additional shot expended. If Mehrunes’ Champion dies with one shot left on the razor, the Mafia team will retain the final shot.

The thread will remain open until 8:00 PM EDT. Night actions are due to both Sloonei and I by 6:00 PM EDT tomorrow, in approximately 23 hours.
