Mafia XXI: History Edition Sign and Discussion Thread

The vengeance kill happens at night as a formality - in literal terms it should happen just prior to the lynch. Which means it's still day time. Which means a roleblock attempt should not be able to happen as it is a night action. If we were to say alright the roleblock is a day time action too, then it should be witnessed by the crowd of people standing there. I'm under the impression that the actual function of the Prostitute is to sleep with someone so they forget to act. Sleeping with someone until they get hung doesn't sound very viable and in front of that crowd you would be witnessed and your role revealed.

Yes, but the song. I feel as though you did not listen to the song.

There aren't any speakers on this computer. I will listen to the song when I get home. I am sure it makes your point very convincing.

The song bit was horrible and detracted from an otherwise wonderful post. Thanks for ruining a great Psychotic moment, Psychotic.

It didn't win me over.

Clearly you have never watched Top Gun. This means that your opinion on this matter and indeed all matters is irrelevant.

Also my name is Administrator Psychotic, and Hypoallergenic Cactuar's Mafia 2.0 is my favourite mafia game on the Citadel.

Clearly you are correct but that doesn't mean I don't disagree with you.

Bah, well I just realized how this works. That after the game is over, you come back to this thread to post your thoughts. When the Mafia thread got locked I was crestfallen. I just sat there. I WANT TO TALK ABOUT HOW PISSED I AM!

Yeah, this was a horrible game to be in for my first ever Mafia game. Especially being grouped with the Masons who I had no reason whatsoever to question. I became suspicious of JustyassholeIhateyouforeveryoubastardwhoreofagorilla the last day and a half, but I could only think that he was just playing stupid, not playing dirty.

There were a lot of roles going on that I wasn't prepared for. I read the wiki, but I just didn't expect nearly everyone to have a specific role and so many powers, geez. I expected 85% vanilla with just a splash of hidden power here and there, so when I found out the Alexander was bulletproof I thought, ok, so maybe one more power player out there, who is it? Boy was I wrong. I should have known that the 21st edition of the game wasn't going to be so vanilla, but I didn't. Shame on me. It's all my fault. No really, a more experienced player in my position would have discovered Justy, and led the town against Catherine like I wanted to do from the beginning. I was swayed by evil mafia bastards whereas someone better would not have been.

In the end, I blame HC. When he turned up townie, and Miller at that, the way I had organized the game in mind just fell apart. I lost all ability to know wth people were doing. Nothing made any sense any more. If that's how a person's supposed to play the game, then...I don't know...

I want to play again. Right now. Getting that first game out of the way, despite that first game being a terrible tragedy, or comedy, probably both, is necessary, now I want to really play.

I still don't get how Cathy was suspicious. You all have said "yeah cathy! I knew it!" But you have never explained nor gave any reason to why Cathy was suspicious xD

I'm sorry!! I really felt bad about betraying you guys. :( When I saw that my role was mafia mason I just thought to myself "wtf this is such a bad role"

I never thought Cathy was mafia. I read that Psy would be playing with a mindset of a townie, and it was played perfectly that I didn't catch on immediately. But I am still mad that I wasn't able to save Simon's women-hating ass. xD

“What is going on inz here! Okay I don't know how to type a Russian accent.”

Cat posted early and then disappeared for a while. I found that suspicious, but not so much to say anything about it yet.

Keep in mind this is my first game of Mafia, so…

Lots of people say lots of meaningless things basically, but then Cat comes in and has this big insightful post that breaks down everything that had happened so far. So I thought to myself, this must be what an experienced player looks like. Definitely townie. But the fact that this was my first thought made me think instead that Cat was trying too hard to look townie. Hence, suspicious.

At this point I’m thinking that Cat is either A. a very experienced player showing everyone else how to be a townie. Or B. an experienced to very experienced Mafia trying to look very townie and control the game.

Notice I voted for Cat day two, so I’m not just making this up after the fact.

When Cat voted for Shaka right into the beginning of day 3 I knew she was mafia, but I didn’t know how to go about attacking her. I hoped that by voting with her I would draw something out, maybe something from her, maybe something from her fellow conspirators.

“I can understand your reasoning a bit better now Gandhi and I can respect your decision. I do disagree with grilling itself being suspicious though, I think it's worth looking at why someone has taken an action rather than the action itself if that makes sense. I am probably going to be grilling people in the future, if I think the situation calls for it. It's just how I like to play this game I suppose!”

Too conciliatory, too knowledgeable, too confident.

It worked to give me final proof for myself that she was dirty, but not enough to go on to convince other people.

Sadly I was a coward and was afraid to jump on Cat until I thought I had a chance of not getting on the Mafia’s radar. My first game, I didn’t want to go out early, ya know? I had hoped to hit Cat with a last second vote because I knew if I vote for her early when it would have pushed her into #1 vote getter range, she would have done something to make it stop. But then the whole Saladin thing happened which ruined my day 3, I didn’t know how to recover. If I’d needed more evidence, which I didn’t, it came anyway when Cat jumped on the Saladin bandwagon. For someone who so obviously knew about the game and was playing such a strong role in the game, there was no way that the Saladin vote was coming from anywhere but a Mafia perspective.

If I could have put the pieces together on that Saladin vote and realized that there was a traitor in the form of a stupiduglydoodoohead named Ieyasu, I might have been able to figure out who to target as allies to turn the game around on the last day, but Alex jumped in with that last vote before I had a chance to ruminate on the previous day’s vote.

You did such a great job on getting Alexander to be the swing vote on that last day, Justy. Ihateyouforever. I’ll never trust anyone ever again.

What's funny is the shaka vote, the day 2 analyzing post , the being respectful to others points and the saladin thing, I/Psy would have done the exact same moves had we been town lol I think it was the second time for the both of us to ever be mafia and when we're town, that's how we play lol. Paul usually wins and most the time I at least make it to endgame. So it just amuses me that those actions were seen as scummy from.a first timer

yeah, I just didn't have anything on which to base an opinion on how townies ideally act, so I probably over thought the whole thing. Since when are people respectful? I must be jaded to see respectfulness as scummy, you're right.

I think I vocalised in posts the same way I always do, town or mafia. But our votes were utterly appalling for a townie so that should've been a big red flag I feel. Thank god I had an "It's you or me, sorry :shobon:" out for Saladin. Although I would've made the same vote for the same reason if I was town in that position too, so :monster:

Cookie monster is throwing a smilie cookie

I don't understand why everyone voted for bolivar, that would have been the worst mafia role ever.
