Spectator Thread Qliphoth

[Stantastic]

Welcome to the Spectator chat!
Here is where we get to point and laugh as the players fruitless try to figure out what the hell is happening.

 

[ynnny]

CLANG

 

[RetroMG]

Where do I put my unnecessarily large sword?

(I've never seen Berserk. They showed it at the university's anime club once, but I think I went out for dinner instead.)

 

[ynnny]

welcome fran :>

 

[Franconp]

Hi,

So the players think there's no enought insanity in the game that they need to add some more?

 

[ynnny]

Hi,

yep

 

[Franconp]

I'm liking some of the new blood already.

 

[ynnny]

yeah, me too :>

it's kinda odd to watch a game with less meta in play than usual. everyone's seems EQUALLY LOST. yays :D

 

[Android Sophia]

Day 0 claim by Terra feels like crap. Who makes that claims and then votes elsewhere?

 

[RetroMG]

I think already said it was a joke claim. Supposedly something he did over on GameFAQs, according to one of the other players.

 

[Android Sophia]

Oh, huh.

I'd still vote him just because I'm mean. :p

 

[RetroMG]

I also feel where Salva is coming from. The bromance between him and Geno seems very strange. From above the Fog of War, it does seem like they are on the level and are just deep in their own meta, but I can totally see how they would seem suspicious.

 

[RetroMG]

It would probably be a similar thing if we sent cabot and Kawl to play over on GameFAQs.

...WHICH WE SHOULD TOTALLY DO.

 

[Android Sophia]

... would cabot and Kawl be able to finish a game at GameFAQs without getting banned? :D

 

[Natiko]

I imagine this is what newbies feel like when they sign up for a game with some of the regulars lol I have a feeling Terra is going to be frustrated by the activity level based on his responses and the roster.

 

[RetroMG]

Hint: Night 0 actions are frowned upon for whatever reason here, we've had one(?!) game starting with a N0.

This is not entirely true. As far as I can recall, we've never discouraged night 0 actions. It is true that we have only had one night start game, but that is because only one person has bothered to do it.

And while I'm at it, we would never allow a tanner (which is not the same thing as a miller) in the first game of a new season. We reserve those for more complicated games that run later, when we don't have a ton of new players, and even then we use them sparingly.

 

[Android Sophia]

At least two games have started with a Night 0: The Price Is Right and Werewolf 1/2, and TPIR had a ton of night time actions then due to the bidding mechanic.

 

[Natiko]

Let’s just make a game where everyone has a crazy, one shot, n0 PR. Then from there it’s vanilla (if anyone is left standing). Sounds balanced to me.

 

[RetroMG]

At least two games have started with a Night 0: The Price Is Right and Werewolf 1/2, and TPIR had a ton of night time actions then due to the bidding mechanic.

Mm, true, I didn't consider TPIR as having a night start, since no one had actions yet other than bidding, but yes, that is correct.

 

[Natiko]

Those CoolestSpot posts. Maybe the most confused I’ve seen a player (excluding Nomad lol).

 

[RetroMG]

You guys can edit posts in here, but I saw someone did it in one of the other threads, so I'm just setting the expectation everywhere else.

 

[heymonkey]

whoa, is day 1 already at 500 posts?

 

[ynnny]

no, most of it was pre-game talk, kikimon :>

some of the newbies have awesome energy though and is making me all happies. a few even seem so pro that they jumped in almost seamlessly into playing actual mafia during D1.

* ___ *

 

[Natiko]

whoa, is day 1 already at 500 posts?

There were like 150 posts prior to day start.

 

[heymonkey]

Still, that's a lot. It warms my activity-loving heart.

 

[RetroMG]

Definitely a good crop of newbies this time around.

 

[RetroMG]

I've seen people saying scummy things as town on purpose to make themselves harder to read(for future games). It's a good strategy actually.

Holy shit, these newbies are playing 32 Dimensional Raquetball. LOL

 

[Natiko]

Whole lot of meek voting going on right now. Everyone’s just sort of following others. I know it’s D1 but come on, try and have a stance on something at least.

 

[Natiko]

Way too many people worried about roles when it’s role madness. Someone with a power is dying every time, just embrace it. That being said I probably wouldn’t have voted either player in this situation. Kalor maybe would’ve got my vote. Too much blending.

Edit: Neat PR though.

 

[Zookfoodle]

#2zooky4me

 

[LuxCommander]

So this is what death by ultraviolence feels like...

 

[heymonkey]

Wow, that night kill tho.

 

[ynnny]

welcome lux!

sorry to see you here so early ; __ ;

grab a seat and enjoy the rest of the show. feel free to speculate and hiss at bad plays or just yell randomly into space, that's also welcomed, too

 

[Stantastic]

things are about to get a little spicy

 

[Natiko]

Really not sure what to make of the recent turn of events. I’m with Splinter - Terra was an odd investigation choice, but I’m more inclined to believe Geno than the framer story.

 

[Zookfoodle]

IS A SPICY MEATBALL

 

[Stantastic]

IS A SPICY MEATBALL

 

[Natiko]

I kind of hope this egg isn’t real and Salva has everyone talking about non-sense.

 

[Franconp]

That was a really interesting night 1.

 

[Terraforce]

Hot takes! May have lost my composure a bit towards the end of the day (still working on that part of my playstyle as aggressive was the name of the game for me for the longest) but I had a lot of fun. Can't wait for the next game already!

 

[ynnny]

terra, you are the most wonderful teddie :>

i am terribly impressed by your mafia ways :>

you reminded me of how mafia had felt like when it was newly brought to our community <3

Thanks <3

Another guy from Gamefaqs recently moved over, so hopefully we can get more new people to this community to shake things up a bit!

 

[Terraforce]

Holy shit, these newbies are playing 32 Dimensional Raquetball. LOL

Not sure if I should spoil this now, but it'd be revealed early in his first game anyway. One of the key players to do this was the guy I was referring to above (Deva) who recently joined the community in the Mafia OT back on Era. I've dabbled in doing the same myself to a degree as well. Makes it easier to cover your tracks when you can refer to past games as reference points.

Just a heads up, we allow past games to be discussed, but players aren't allowed to quote directly from previous games. Also, I don't think pointing to your own past performance will go over as well with this group.

I don't mean as a direct reference. It's just that after you play with some people for years on end you get used to certain quirks when they're a particular alignment until they get to the point of noticing these errors and correcting them.

 

[Franconp]

WTF is Geno doing now? The game has some obvious rules that everyone should be aware now. Saying he is the exception is just going to help him get lynched.

 

[ynnny]

FRANCO I TOLD U IT WAS NOT GOING TO BE A BLOOD BATH

>:C

 

[Franconp]

So far.

Spoiler

But there aren't almost no protective roles for either side and the killing roles are all still alive.

 

[ynnny]

game was supposed to be my serenade of bloody murders for seru's bloodlust

THE ANGRY EGG HAS NEEDS

 

[Natiko]

Well today’s off to a wonderful start lol If I was in this game I’m honestly not sure if I would be able to rationally view everything or if I’d just lynch a cop claim out of frustration.

 

[Stantastic]

Depending on how things go from here, apollo might be in a great position to start figuring some shit out.

and Oh yeah actually said it, the absolute madman!

 

[Natiko]

So Coolest and Brazil are scum I’m guessing

 

[ynnny]

role claims coming out of the woodwork

solve the puzzle, people~

 

[Stantastic]

they can figure it out.

they have the technology.

 

[Natiko]

I like the style this game has Stan. Haven’t seen all the roles obviously but just wanted to get that out there.

 

[Stantastic]

yin deserves most (really all) of the credit for that,
i just said we should make it a bloodbath and suddenly this brilliant game design just proofed into existence.

 

[ynnny]

im like behelit

and u r griffith

(and u have sacrificed the band of the hawk)



so this is like..... FATE and stuff, yknow? yeah. nailed it.

 

[Franconp]

Spoiler: Don't open if you don't want to be spoiled

When the game started and I rechecked the design spreadsheet to see who landed each role I was kinda regreating the scum bulletproof. But seeing how the day is going not anymore. If Cool had died all the Geno/framer situation would have been resolved pretty quickly and we wouldn't have all the shennanigans that we have now.

 

[ynnny]

i still ragretz it

all ur fault franco

Spoiler: ALL OF IT

<3 for reviewing and balancing berserk

 

[Franconp]

all ur fault franco

It was all Coppa's fault. We all agreed ti that.

Keep that a secret until GoT runs. Natiko is around here and you will spook him.

 

[Franconp]

Spoiler: Big spoiler

I think that Kalor fucked up. He shouldn't have changed the vote. Coolestspot's ability is now irrelevant and with Geno's flip he will be the main suspicios next day. After that, when people start checking votes patterns, Kalor will be in a lot of trouble.

 

[Natiko]

How the hell was Geno the one lynched?! What a shit show lol

 

[Natiko]

It was all Coppa's fault. We all agreed ti that.

Keep that a secret until GoT runs. Natiko is around here and you will spook him.

We all know it’s more balanced than where it started so that’s a win in my book

Lol

 

[Geno]

Lucky scum team was lucky. I did the best I could. Again, sorry Terra.

 

[Natiko]

I thought you played well. Not sure I would’ve pushed the fake claim but I’m pretty sure it caused scum to make a poor fake claim in response. Can’t be helped that town is oblivious at times lol

 

[ynnny]

Lucky scum team was lucky. I did the best I could. Again, sorry Terra.

Geno! You played super well! Your last reads were analytical and well grounded! I was definitely impressed spectating your game!

Hope you had a bit of fun!

 

[Geno]

Thanks guys, had lots of fun, especially that 7 7 split had me at the edge of my seat

 

[cabot]

this game is enjoyable.

 

[ynnny]

welcome bottie :>

 

[Splinter]

 

[Zookfoodle]

WAS SPOT MAFIA
FUCK
I DIDNT VOTE FOR HIM BECAUSE I THOUGHT A MENTORED SCUM WOULDNT HAVE SAID SOMETHING THAT DUMB

 

[Splinter]

Spoiler: Big spoiler

I think that Kalor fucked up. He shouldn't have changed the vote. Coolestspot's ability is now irrelevant and with Geno's flip he will be the main suspicios next day. After that, when people start checking votes patterns, Kalor will be in a lot of trouble.

Spoiler

Damn, I suspected Kalor a little early on but he had me pretty much convinced by the time I died. I also didn't mind his vote swap at all due to how long we waited.

I was about to ask Salva to swap, he was pretty much the only person I trusted on Geno. Hopefully scum are stacked pretty badly there? Haven't seen the full team

Without knowing the scum team, I think town has an ok chance this game. Good activity and mix of claims, plenty to work with.

Just need to lynch some scummies.

 

[ynnny]

with players who don't even read the game's proceedings, you are more hopeful than i am, splints :)

hope you had fun!

i was actually lookin forward to your lynch, but it never happened :(

 

[Splinter]

Me too :(

Although I don't know who I would've shot. Probably Pat

 

[Splinter]

Oh I hadn't read the scum claims yet

Uhh...

 

[Natiko]

Uh your game just got blown up lol

 

[Splinter]

That would be against rule 3 I guess, although he could've achieved the same without a direct quote.

Really though, what the hell is going on?

 

[Natiko]

Kind of bummed, this game has been fun to watch and it just got derailed so hard

 

[Splinter]

WTB scum thread access

 

[Natiko]

WTB scum thread access

I second this motion lol

 

[Splinter]

I can still see a possibility where Salva is town and just walked unwittingly into Spot's gambit.

I think I've become useless at mafia

 

[Natiko]

My thoughts by day end yesterday were Salva, Coolest, and Brazil. My main hang up was the idea of the egg and if it was real why would scum start with it? So I settled on only Coolest and Brazil for sure.

 

[heymonkey]

whoaaaaaaaaaa what in the shit was is happening in there

 

[Splinter]

It's the End Times, monkey

Send help

 

[heymonkey]

oh my god, they are working overtime to save this. i can't tell if it got just plain crazytown or if it kinda got even better.

 

[Stantastic]

people still thinking they have actually figured this game out. smh

its called role madness for a reason!

 

[Stantastic]

My role is ISIDORO the Messenger. aligned with THE BAND OF THE HAWK.

I'm an inspiring young warrior (neat), enthusiast as fuck, stubborn and everyone loves me.

and everyone loves me.

I said no such goddamn thing

 

[Natiko]

I don’t think this gambit is going to pan out in the long run but it’s certainly the most brazen thing I’ve seen in awhile.

 

[Stantastic]

+10 points to CoolestSpot for that image

 

[ynnny]

WTB scum thread access

I second this motion lol

Scum Access Loot Box available! $35 to purchase!

LIMITED TIME ONLY

 

[CoolestSpot]

Hey y'all!

Wowie wosies! So far we have an insane game. I'm curious how it's gonna end.

 

[CoolestSpot]

Those CoolestSpot posts. Maybe the most confused I’ve seen a player (excluding Nomad lol).

Did I play idiot that well? Was worried I wasn't.

 

[Natiko]

Did I play idiot that well? Was worried I wasn't.

Early on, yeah lol You didn’t keep up the shtick though.

 

[CoolestSpot]

Early on, yeah lol You didn’t keep up the shtick though.

Yeah probably wasn't consistent enough. This is my first real game, so I tried to mix up actual dumbass moves with fake ones haha. It was real great game to play though.

Terra, you were one of the best in the game, holy crap. Great reads and thought out responses.

 

[ynnny]

hi CS :D

welcome to the dead thread :D you were such shenanigans, i tell you

i keep screaming at my monitor at your shenanigans, i tell you

lol

 

[CoolestSpot]

hi CS :D

welcome to the dead thread :D you were such shenanigans, i tell you

i keep screaming at my monitor at your shenanigans, i tell you

lol

Hey, thanks for running a superb game!

I don't really think I was the smartest player, but I hope I added some flair, and that's what your response says so...sucess in my book.

 

[ynnny]

you were IMPOSSIBLE to tear my attention away from, im saying!

like, completely mesmerizing :D

......... this isn't your first time at mafia, is it? you are so bold and entertaining and UNPREDICTABLE

 

[Franconp]

That flip didn't mention anything about Grffith. That's intentional?

 

[CoolestSpot]

First time. Also, no one wanted me to do that scum move I did that got me lynched, "the reveal". But that just told me it had to be done for show, at least haha.

Thanks for the compliment, that means a lot to hear from a veteran. I am aiming for "most wildcard new blood player" award.

 

[ynnny]

That flip didn't mention anything about Grffith. That's intentional?

Yea. They'd see Griffith if Zodd flips, cuz he's the recruiter.
