Darkover Mafia Game Thread

Of course it would be! Def's smart enough to have gone through the wiki to choose a role for himself that fits the events... especially since all the events have already happened before he pitched his explanation!

You're just being silly now. 1) I'm not that smart and 2) there is pretty much always a doctor role. Who has that role?

Alright, since you're playing, tell us
1. the exact wording of the message you got last night, and...
2. more about this 2-nights-in-a-row kerfuffle with Oblivion. Give as much detail as you like.

[CookieJon]

By the way Cookie, you never told us who you blocked

No, this time I'm waiting for Feck to tell us who he watched first.

[def]

I protected Ksen because he claimed two votes, and it's a crapshoot day one. Day two, he was confirmed town because of his kidnapping and I figured him a big target.

Kidnapping could be a good way for scum to take pressure of a team mate who has drawn suspicion. If there is evidence that ksen is town, it is rather that UT and Bolero voted for him on day 1.

That is possible, that scum kidnapped scum to throw people off the scent, but I don't think that would be a day one action. On the first day, scum would be going all out, not playing defense, in my opinion.

If that's what they did, it would be crafty strategy though.

@Cookie, Feck said he didn't send in night actions last night.

As for telling you everything about my info last night and the Ksen thing, let me double check the rules here on the degree of quoting we can do, and I'll post what I can.

I didn't.... Look up the thread ^ short nights suck !

[CookieJon]

Oops, sorry was on the mobile when I wrote the first post after that & (clearly) I missed it.

Ok, so, Feck missed last night. Well it should be pretty obvious by now who I blocked last night, and he's concocted a brilliant story that can't be *disproven*, but is just seems so "convenioent" my scumdar is going off the dial!

Even the inconvenient bits of his story, he's conveniently given us an answer for. E.g...

"Really, if I were scum, I would concoct a lot simpler story" and "if I was making a fake claim, I wouldn't claim to protect the same person twice in a row."

I dunno - I could be wrong I suppose (and I'm sorry if I am) but it all just seems concocted, so...

Vote def

Cookie are you sure you want to lynch an uncontested Doc ?

[def]

This is me paraphrasing.
How I felt at the start of today:
So, I slept like the dead last night, and woke up with a dull, stuffy head, a sure sign that I was within the field of a telepathic damper all night.

The implication is that I was blocked, but I don't know what exactly a telepathic damper is.


About protecting two nights in a row, (and uber-veteran Cookie should know this), doctors often can't protect the same person two nights in a row. But, my role said nothing about that. So I chose to protect Ksen night one and two. I was informed afterward that my role should have had that restriction, but since it wasn't included in the role description, that it was fine for day two, but wouldn't be allowed again. End of story. That's roughly what I wrote before, I think. It's not a big deal, it happens in games. When writing my role out today, I was thinking to simply say I protected Zigmen night two, to save this sort of tedious confusion and explanation, which makes the game host (usually) feel bad since they can't change it... but then I figured lying would come back and bite me somehow, since that would really look scummy, so I just explained it as is, strange as it sounds.

Cookie are you sure you want to lynch an uncontested Doc ?

To be honest I couldn't say I was SURE, but I was the closest thing to it.

However, as a result of def's post above, I am now 100% sure...

Unfortunately for def, I also tried to block the same person two nights in a row, because my character description said nothing about the restrictions. However, Oblivion promptyly informed me that this was not allowed.

Sorry def, it was a great explanation, and you weren't to have known some bozo would actually make the mistake you were relying on for your lie.

Now, I suppose you're going to tell us it's possible Oblivion treated players differently. Are you sure you want to question our kind mod's fairness just to play innocent a little bit longer?

Yes, don't forget to TELL us you don't know what it is, so that we think you couldn't possibly have written it yourself! ;-)

[CookieJon]

And anyway... does you story fit the facts as much as I'm giving you credit??

Lemme get this straight... I blocked you. You're claiming to be the doctor, who was blocked. Is that right?

So why do we think nobody was killed last night?

I'm telling the truth, and she's going to probably feel really bad if it gets me convicted. Oh well.

Don't worry, Oblivion, it's happened to me before, and it stings a lot less the second time

Yes, don't forget to TELL us you don't know what it is, so that we think you couldn't possibly have written it yourself! ;-)

That makes no sense. I don't know what your role is, or how people receive that they've been blocked. I just know what was sent to me Geez, you're self-satisfied over nothing. Do us a favor and gloat more so you'll look all the sillier when my role is revealed.


Oblivion, can you confirm (without confirming my role) that I was able to perform a night action on a player twice, then told that I could not do it again?

Here's a few possibilities:
-scum could recruit or kill, and down to a low number, they recruited
-knowing they were being hunted, they didn't kill for a night in order to ferment paranoia
-alternate roles were passed onto scum as other scum died, and they used a different role

But the best thing would be to ask the scum players

Geez you're good at making up scenarios aren't you!

[CookieJon]

Whlre we're waiting, and in the event that Oblivion DOES confirm this story, could you elaborate on...

As for telling you everything about my info last night and the Ksen thing, let me double check the rules here on the degree of quoting we can do, and I'll post what I can.

Since you paraphrased it, I assume you found a rule which said no verbatim quotes. Could you provide the link ASAP, please, because I provided a quote as did Feck before, and I think we may have breached the rules. I'd just like to check.

[Feck]

I didn't break the rules I didn't quote my PMs I paraprased a bit and left a bit out
