Mafia 48 - Birthday Party Game Thread [MAFIA VICTORY]

Minimania · 2020-06-02 02:51:58

Welcome to Mafia 48 - Birthday Party! For those of you who don't know, today is my birthday (June 2), which is why I invited all of you here! We're having a party and a sleepover! I hope you all enjoy yourselves!

Here are the rules:

▼Game Rules

- One in-game day will last 72 hours. One in-game night will last 24 hours. Both may be ended early.
- Votes that are not made using the Bold or Header tags will not be counted. Self-votes are allowed.
- Do not game-throw, and no pushing and shoving in the bouncy castle!
- Follow the rules of the forums and please be nice. I didn't invite you all here to fight; I invited you all here to have fun!
- Red will be the color I will be using to make posts as the game moderator. Do not use this color or otherwise attempt to impersonate me. It's my birthday!
- Players may be prodded after 48 consecutive hours of inactivity by using the !prod <username> command. Players that are prodded for inactivity and don't become active within the next 48 hours will either be replaced or killed (if there are no replacements). Please don't fall asleep during the festivities!
- Do not discuss this game outside of this thread. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! Okay, it's my house but you get the point.
- A lynch will not occur when a majority has been reached. A lynch can only occur when the day ends. Players can vote to end the day early by using the !endday command. When a day ends, all lynch votes will be counted, and whatever was voted for the most will be executed. If you do not vote, your vote will not be counted as a NoLynch. Players can vote to not lynch anyone during the day by using the !nolynch command. I love democracy.
- These rules totally weren't plagiarized from Norwegianboy's Werewolf game and anyone who says they are will promptly be licked.
- Talking is allowed during twilight. Players nominated for lynch may talk until the moderator has announced their death. Once you are dead, you are not allowed to talk in the thread until the moderator has ended the game. However you are allowed a single short post if it is unrelated to the game.
- Users not participating are not allowed to post in the game topic. If I didn't invite you, then you're not invited.
- Do not take screenshots or quote anything from your role pm. Do not post your Role Card ID. I made them as party favors for you all!

Here are the roles:

▼Roles

Vanilla Townie - Vanilla Townies have no special abilities. By default, they are aligned with the Town.
Nurse - Once per night, Nurses may choose one player; that player will not be killed tonight if they are targetted for a night kill. Nurses can select themselves, but they cannot choose the same player two nights in a row. By default, they are aligned with the Town.
Cop - Once per night, Cops may choose one player; the cop will learn whether or not the selected player is considered Dangerous. By default, they are aligned with the Town.
Vigilante - Once per game, during the night, Vigilantes may choose one player; that player will die. By default, they are aligned with the Town, but are considered Dangerous until they use their ability.
Mafia Goon - Mafia Goons have no special abilities. Once per night, they can choose to perform a kill on behalf of the Mafia faction by choosing one player; that player will die. By default, they are aligned with the Mafia and are considered Dangerous.
Milk Man - Once per game, during the night, Milk Men may choose one player; that player's faction changes to the Mafia Faction, and they keep their abilities. It must be Night 2 or later for the Milk Man to use this effect. Once per night, they can choose to perform a kill on behalf of the Mafia faction by choosing one player; that player will die. Milk Men can only use one of these effects per night. By default, they are aligned with the Mafia and are considered Dangerous.
Serial Killer - Once per night, Serial Killers may choose one player; that player will die. Serial Killers cannot be killed during the night by any member of the Mafia, and cannot be converted into a Mafia member by the Milk Man, but they can be killed by the Vigilante. By default, they are aligned with themselves, and are considered Dangerous.
There will only be one of each role, except Vanilla Townie. Therefore, there is only one Nurse, one Cop, one Vigilante, one Mafia Goon, one Milk Man, one Serial Killer, and 7 Vanilla Townies. The town wins when all the Mafia die. The Mafia wins if it holds a majority.

Here are some rulings regarding the game if anyone is confused:

Don't want people to suspect anything

Ok, so let's start off with some strategy and work our way from there.
Because the cop isn’t safe (due to milkman potentially converting it to mafia N2), we should all claim cop to confuse the mafia / potentially make them waste their convert on a VT. Then, we post our inspects so in the odd case that the cop dies, we will still have their inspects because they posted them along with everyone’s fake inspects. It wouldn’t be a good idea for everyone to not claim at all because if the cop dies later on and didn’t post their inspects, we won’t have any information to go off of.
Additionally, if the real cop gets someone as dangerous N1, we should all retract our fake claims so that the real cop gets confirmed. Then, if the scum claims vig (because vig shows up as dangerous if they haven’t shot), the real vig should cc. If the real vig was found, there will probably be no cc, and if there is, the outed real vig should just shoot the cc during the night. This will confirm the cop and vig, and lead to a guaranteed scum kill, as long as we don’t lynch between the vig claims.
Also, this works beyond D2, we just need to make sure the cop/vig isn’t found by the milkman.
So, without further ado, I claim cop.

people already said this but ill reiterate, this is quite pointless because how is everyone claiming cop any more beneficial to town than nobody claiming cop?

TaskManager · 2020-06-02 22:52:16

ok but i still dont see the point doing this day 1 because cop didnt have the time to visit anyone yet???

TaskManager · 2020-06-02 23:12:04

We don't need to post reads d1 because that's impossible, but I just wanted to get the strat going today so we can move on to the next thing.

alright understandable
well in that case simply making everyone say "im a cop" is utterly pointless so miss me with this

TaskManager · 2020-06-02 23:13:03

i'll consider doing this day 2 though when there's an actual gain to it

TaskManager · 2020-06-02 23:30:41

hey what if cop ends up not dying and we're in LyLo
wouldnt that be funny
"ok guys pqwerty's plan aside im the real cop"
"no its me im the cop!!"

mrjawapa

TaskManager · 2020-06-03 14:08:09

I agree with points Shadow made and am going to opt out of the whole cop thing because every incorrect guess of a mafia member appearing as not dangerous narrows the pool down
I also don't like Norboy forcing a townblock on D1. Besides the issues mentioned earlier, a townblock created earlier in the game is less likely to be questioned in late game because people barely look into early posts at that point and appeal to tradition kicks in (woah luka, a fallacy? :flush:)
That said, I don't scumread Norboy yet, even though I feel like day 1 townblocking easily could be scum motivated, I just have a gut feeling after all these games that whatever town!norboy does, it comes off as scummy
Pqwerty is a town lean for me
Don't know what to make of Onjit and Luka yet, though Luka raised valid points about townblocking

TaskManager · 2020-06-03 14:12:26

Also @norboy if you and another player (in this case Onjit) townread eachother that doesn't mean your reads on other players align and all parties agree to vote together
I find your "Vote luka with me" slightly odd, from a member of a townblock I'd rather expect an invitation to a discussion (i.e. "What do you think about Luka?")

TaskManager · 2020-06-03 15:56:54

@crybaby
does the night result specify whether a person was killed by mafia or sk or vigi?

TaskManager · 2020-06-03 15:58:14

follow up question if multiple DANGEROUS people target the same victim, does it specify all factions involved or is there a specific precedence of kills

I didn't do that, stop victimizing yourself, you were the one the called me useless

Hey he's right though
And no need to take it personally

Andymakeer wrote:

I still encourage no lynch D1, the pool is so big that I doubt we'll even get any worth information from a lynch today.
But if it makes you happy, I'll follow along any wagon today.
It won't really make any difference because the mafia will also follow the same wagon

This just screams "I don't care about solving the game but to make you happy I'll pretend to be cooperative by following any wagon just so you townread me"

One of the reasons that I don't post before is because d1 seems pretty boring and dull with just people fighting each other , I would rather !endday like Allen said than seeing some dudes fighting because of mafia strategies

Surprise, the entire game is usually people fighting about mafia strats!

mrjawapa, peace

TaskManager · 2020-06-04 13:29:25

Gabriel what's your opinion on other members of the town?

TaskManager · 2020-06-04 13:40:00

Evidently, players that accuse other players of flailing are statistically more likely to be scum themselves than the player accused of flailing.

This isn't necessarily true in our community and Kira is the most prominent example of that and I don't like when people are trying to make a point by using statistics
However a player accusing another player of flailing is very counterproductive and doesn't raise real points as to why the accused is scum. From my perception it's more of an attempt to appeal to the gray masses of less active people to convince them to join the wagon and is inherently scummy indeed

You're more worried about being scum read than solving the game?
Oh but have we had any progress?

We've made more progress than what is usually made on D1
We've discussed a cop massclaim and Norboy's townblock and based on that some people have made some basic reads on some people that were involved
Of course we won't solve the game in one day and if never works like that, but we're still making quite some progress
I've also concluded that Gabriel is inactive and should probably be discarded in early game and that you clearly value people reading you as town over solving the game which is a trait of scum and newish mafia players

I’d rather vote a scummy player than an inactive player. Lynches on inactives are bad and if it flips town basically gives us nothing to work with the next day. While i agree with voting for pressure on principle, we really don’t have enough time for that anymore and that is why i think we should rather be voting Andymakeer right now.

I'm down for lynching Andy because of the things that happened earlier today
On the other hand inactive players like Gabrielf shouldn't be carried into late game where every single player matters, so it is better that we discard him and players like him as soon as possible if he doesn't make up his mind and start participating in the game

Too many potential deaths N1, if we accidentally lynch any town D1, PR or not, we'll be getting absolutely no information but also decreasing the pool as hell.

If we accidentally lynch a townie that's not the end of the world and we do gain information by analyzing connections the dead townie had with other members, this sometimes goes as far as confirming other player(s) to be townie(s) which reduces the pool of lynch candidates and brings us closer to winning
