    Mafia 5 - Throne of Destiny

    I did not believe he was the doctor, but I thought if he was, then I'd just be trading my life for his. And I wanted to keep playing.

    Selfish attitude on my part gonna get me yeeted

    Mafia 5 - Throne of Destiny

    Been tied up with a crisis at work. No point in arguing to save myself, as there's not much time left in the day.

    But why would I claim my role if I had been converted to scum?

    If Future was scum, MTR would be dead by now.

    Not sure where to place my vote so

    Found our likely N1 convert guys.

    Not me. I have protected Mazer both nights. I'd like to hear from him.

    For those that have played this style before, and this has come up, is it more common to pick a new king, or to not have a king?

    Mafia 5 - Throne of Destiny

    We need a full majority for a king.

    We started with 2 Unseen and an Unseen King. Again, Unseen don’t know if the king is good or evil and the king doesn’t know the unseen members. As of now we have 3 Unseen alive, 1-2 Neuts, rest BD. Best case scenario is 6 BD, worst is 5.

    That makes more sense now. Not sure why I wasn't getting that it was an "either / or" between cult and unseen, not both.

    And looking at this again, if we don't want a king, should we all just get a majority on

    Mafia 5 - Throne of Destiny

    I have been very very busy with my couponing/shopping addiction and haven't had much time to sift through so many questions that have popped into my mind going back to the last day phase. We eventually got power back wee hours Sunday morning, which meant I had to clean up / put away stuff from a huge mess after cooking on the outdoor grill, digging out our generator, getting all the extension cords put away, etc. This coupled with a few unexpected couponing deals kept me busy tonight as well (53 free "sharing size" m&m's will be a great treat for the folks in the shelters).

    Anyway, back to my thoughts on the game. Our initial king was yeeted, and kudos to those who sniffed him out as scum. Vote history makes me feel better about everyone who voted for him.

    Looking at the overnight results continues to make my head hurt. Do I understand it right that we are supposed to elect a new king today, and if we don't hit a majority within 24 hours, the leading vote becomes king? But some of you are talking about having no king? How does that work? I will have to re-read the rolecards a few more times to try to figure out.

    The Pirate was telling the truth about bleeding. He wasn't healed so he bled out. He was one of the yellow neutrals.

    Nightengale flipped as the orange neutral killer, so a threat to town. Not sure what to think of her sus list because she wasn't town herself, but am I right that she was alone? Initial write up said one orange.

    Losing Morrison (Sheriff) and Matthieu (Physician) make it tough for us.

    Am I right that we have two purple cult and two red unseen to find, plus 1-2 other yellow neutrals? Since robo flipped red as a threat to town, does that mean the game started with 3 red, 2 purple, 1 orange and 2 yellow?

    Then I went and looked at what the King's role does. Unless there is some well played scum theater, if I were the king, I would probably put Rock and Listo on trial. We could probably learn something based on who would vote for each of these two.

    Mafia 5 - Throne of Destiny

    I have been tied up most of the day doing my couponing, I return home for chores around the house, and get ready to catch up only for us to lose power. So I read on my phone and I am thoroughly confused.

    Can someone please explain succinctly the differences between a cult game and and unseen game? If I understand this properly, the great and powerful VoidKitten set this game up to be both, but because we didn't get enough players, it was scaled back, and now its one or the other? But all the possible roles were left, so its not just an elimination process.

    I can't scroll back easily on my phone, and with no power I can't get on the computer to read back, but there's a couple of you that don't make me feel great. I understand some of that is intentional as early on, nobody wants to make themselves a target. I fear I have done that to myself, as I don't see anyone else coming out and sharing info about their actions. I thought that was what we were supposed to do in order to try to identify scum.

    I never considered the possibility that the Pirate was untruthful about bleeding. After glancing at the rolecards and seeing bleeding, it seemed clear to me that he was not an evil pirate - and was sharing the info he had that he needed a doctor. That's certainly what I would have done - and what most of us would do.

    I was curious about CWE, but I am still wary about pretty much everybody. Not knowing what else happened makes this tough.

    As for Morrison, I have noticed that when he's scum he tends to hide back, then he will eventually come in with a long post. But he's also done this as town. I distrust but I won't place my vote here yet.

    Rock Meets Hard Place coming in very early to suggest we won't get a yeet today really bugged me. I don't feel strongly about it, though.

    Foxxi appears to be her town/solvy style, and I would like that to continue. But she's a really good player and I am not the only one who has been fooled in the past.

    Mazer's post made me feel better about him, especially after the long absence.

    Ninja makes me really nervous, but I think that poking style does help get results / reactions from players.

    If MTR was scum, I don't see why Future is alive now. I was actually kind of surprised Future survived anyway, as scum should have known killing him would put a target on MTR. I thought Future would be mowing MTR's lawn by now.

    Tomorrow is a big couponing day - presuming we actually get power back. I doubt I will be able to post, so for now I will

    Still feel sore about his stance on me yesterday - and why he felt that his "random" vote deserved more attention than 6 or 7 other trains in progress. Arrogance does not mesh well with town goals.

    I am willing to change my vote if someone can convince me (and if I get a chance to check in)

    clearly, I did nothing yesterday. I didn't push anyone at all.

    Is this kind of posting normal for BN? it's like he comments on my posts but it's like empty and doesn't really go with what I'm saying or what has happened in the game.

    I kind of sus this. It's hard to say that anyone did anything yesterday (presuming you are talking about the Day 1 discussion)

    But I think you may have a point about BN.

    Not being able to see who did what to whom is maddening.

    Im bleeding help help i need a dr =[

    All I know is that I survived, which I think means the person I protected was not targetted. But Jack says he's bleeding, which made me go look back at the roles.

    A bleeding player will die after two nights if not healed.

    Someone oughtta please heal our Pirate.

    He hasn't said what a saint he is with his coupons lately, probably saying it in a scum cat.

    I don't claim to be a saint, just a better shopper than most. And no scum chat for me because I am blue. There's not all that much happening with coupons other than razors, Tide, toothpaste and deodorant lately. I have been redeeming lots and lots of rainchecks lately.

    I mean his reaction to all of this isnt exactly filling me with good feelings. And even if its only one partner no ones really interacted with my post or my vote, its just been ignored completely. If 3puppies was innocent wolves would at least prod and poke at it, either to make me look bad or look at a free ride on a town vote.

    It is your pressing of this that isn't giving me good feelings about you.

    See, screaming evil but no one else is interested.

    This is not screaming evil at all, because I am blue. I simply don't trust anyone at this point, and I don't trust my own reads of anyone present.

    For you to vote me apparently randomly, meh.

    But then you say the fact that nobody else jumped on a random vote - when there are several others who had votes on them already, is somehow a sign that makes me scum - simply makes no sense.

    Unless you are actually scum yourself, and want to make sure there is suspicion on everyone but you.

    Not a single person jumped on my random 3puppies vote, he must be evil.

    I tried to ignore you earlier because you said it was a random vote. But I just don't see the logic with your above statement. So OMGUS.

    Vote: Unvote

    I still have a lot to catch up on. But I noticed there is a neutral killer, and I remembered that in my very first game I led a train for sleep and was killed for it. So I don't want to lead the train.

    I was all set to vote Listo as revenge for the last game. Then the response to Foxxi about having the most experience in this style made me cringe a bit.

    Xanjori, I would vote for you as OMGUS. And you missed Foxxi's last game when she was town, survived a long while, finally got recruited to the winning scum team.

    Mechanically, I was surprised to read that the king, if evil, does not know the others on his team. I find this hard enough to understand, and the fact that this game was written for mutliple scum factions, but with fewer players now it makes it harder to follow. We apparently aren't going to get writeups, and there are more roles than players, which just adds to the confusion. Would it be unfair to ask for a list of the actual roles that have been assigned, so we can eliminate the ones that don't apply?

    Mafia 5 - Throne of Destiny

    Just noticing there's a logbook. It will be hard for me to keep this under 50 words, as I am usually loquatious.

    I am curious as to whether there are any general guidelines / hints that can be helpful to town as to what we should be including? I am hoping it will make sense as eliminations happen, but with no write-up, I dunno what to include. Will the role be flipped once someone is killed?

    So who is gonna ask CWE his role?

    I noticed the special treatment CWE got in the rules writeup, posted even before CWE agreed to play. Did Void simply get CWE liquored up, or was it the other way around?
