<title>[game] Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26830365</link>
<description><![CDATA["You're in a desert, walking along in the sand when all of the sudden-"

"Is this the test now?"

"Yes. You're in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down-"

"What one?"

"What?"

"What desert?"

"It doesn't make any difference what desert, it's completely hypothetical."

"But how come I'd be there?"

"Maybe you're fed up, maybe you want to be by yourself, who knows? You look down and you see a tortoise, it's crawling toward you-"

"Tortoise? What's that?"

"Know what a turtle is?"

"Of course."

"Same thing."

"I've never seen a turtle. [ pause ] But I understand what you mean."

"You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back."

"Do you make up these questions, or do they write them down for you?"

"The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun beating its legs trying to turn itself over but it can't, not without your help, but you're not helping."

"What do you mean I'm not helping?"

"I mean, you're not helping. Why is that? [ pause ] They're just questions. In answer to your query, they're written down for me. It's a test, designed to provoke an emotional response. [ pause ] Shall we continue? Describe in single words, only the good things that come in to your mind about: your mother."

"My mother?"

"Yeah."

"Let me tell you about my mother..."

BANG

And just like that, uid://322142 was dead.

The androids have escaped into town. And they are not feeling friendly.

<title>Town Tactics and Logic</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26870265</link>
<description><![CDATA[I'll just put this here.

I think we need to have a discussion on how Logic is applied in the game to the town's advantage.  Mafia has been consistently kicking town's ass in recent games, so I think this is appropriate, especially with some new players coming into the mix.  Mafia really doesn't need a self help group as they are doing fine as it is (what a bunch of thieves and liars we've become), but town needs a full on intervention.

To reference the most recent C9 that dweeb moderated.  There was logic used there, and drew pointed out that when if you see a failed hammer on Lynch or Lose day, then that person is 95% mafia.  Also, the attempted trap logic I tried to use when Adalicia told me he knew Protus and I were mafia.  In thinking he was mafia with Protus, I went for the "if you're sure, then let's vote off my alleged partner" trick.  My own metagame errors early on assisted in turning Adalicia against me enough that he wouldn't listen, but had that not been the case, I think we would have had a Mafia dead due to the logic trap.

If other vets could jump in here and offer their sage advice, maybe some traps that occur for town to watch out for, and plays that generally stink of scum, I would appreciate it.

<title>[game] Newbie F11</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26859118</link>
<description><![CDATA[
The man was running down the road. He was scared. His heart was racing.
"Why?" he asked himself, "why me?"
The shot rang out, reverberating throughout the small town. The man fell face forward, smashing his head into a rock. Blood was already starting to pool. The back of his shirt read "jackleg."

The following morning, entire population of Giants-Kicked-The-Pats-Ass-ville, all nine of them, arrived on scene. One of the men, uid://522822, screamed like a little girl. uid://1681415 stood still, slowly petting a hairless cat. Another, uid://682511, stood weeping over the cold, lifeless body of uid://585175.

The mafia had returned.

Rules
* Do Not Edit your posts...this will result in a mod kill.
* Do Not give anyone thumbs up....this will result in a mod kill.
* If you are not allowed private communication, then you are not allowed private communication. Breaking this rule will result in, you guessed it, a mod kill.
* There will be no postings of IM's....this will result in, all together now, a mod kill.
* Keep it respectful and nice. No personal bashing of any one player.
* No aiding a player in his/her strategy after you have died. Not only is this frowned upon, but will result in a permanent ban from any game that I mod.

The four F11 Variants, one of these has been selected randomly:
1: 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 7 Townies.
2: 1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 1 Sane Cop, 1 Doctor, 5 Townies.
3: 2 Mafia Goons, 1 Doctor, 6 Townies.
4: 2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Cop, 6 Townies.

Here are the role PMs. Inclusion of doctor and cop role PMs does not give credence for or against the inclusion of these roles. They are my generic role PMs for C9/F11.

You are a plain old townie. You have no super powers. Your power is your vote and your deductive reasoning abilities. You do not have private communication with anyone but your mentor (if applicable). You win with the town.

You are the town's cop. You can investigate one player every night to find out if they are guilty or innocent. You do not have private communication with anyone but your mentor (if applicable). You win with the town.

You are the town's doctor. You can protect one player every night, however you cannot protect yourself. You have no private communication with anyone but your mentor (if applicable). You win with the town.

You are a mafia member. You have no super powers. Your power is the ability, with your mafia partner: xxxxxx or xxxxxxx, to decide to kill one person at night. You may speak freely with one another or your mentor (if applicable) via PM, email, voice chat, any means you wish. You win with the mafia.

You are a mafia roleblocker. You submit one name per night to indicate who you wish to prevent from using any role power they may have. With your mafia partner: xxxxxx or xxxxxxx, to decide to kill one person at night. You may speak freely with one another or your mentor (if applicable) via PM, email, voice chat, any means you wish. You win with the mafia.

Role PMs going out momentarily. I'll announce day when I've sent them.

NOTE: There are no mentors. I re-used role PMs.

<title>[game] AitP #26</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,26810636</link>
<description><![CDATA[The last attempt of the "We Fail Miserably" Assassins Guild, to no one's surprise, had failed miserably. The King of Bling still lives, so a new contract was taken out.

The following morning, as always, the king had 6 other look-a-likes dressed exactly like him. As they were setting off for a morning walk, they realized that there was someone extra... the assassin infiltrated them! Yet again.

Also, a corpse of uid://1626821 could be seen mounting the corpse of uid://702600 at the royal entrance. No one knows why, no one dares to ask why, and no one really complains because their expressions for a bunch of corpses were just too funny not to do it.
Dun, dun, DUN!

You know the rules... break them and I break you.

<description><![CDATA[That night was peaceful... no screeches, no howls, now screams... just an explosion at dawn. They all rushed out to see what had happened. They found brian crawling out of the flaming barn. He was himself on fire, and collapsed never to wake again before they could get to him and ask what happened.

uid://625234 was killed in the night.

Seer - brian
