Hitman: Blood Money Mafia - A Dance With The Devil

[Zigmen]

I put in a request to "Block Aza" and I received no response / confirmation of any kind back from Gonzo, meaning that he obviously performed no action to block now that we know he was scum.

That's not what that means at all. If I'm remembering my GMs correctly during the Reservoir Dogs game as the scum blocker I never received notification of having a successful block and the blockees didn't receive any indication that they had been blocked.

And Contra, your use of the word "viewed" isn't really explained, here.

[Contrapposto]

why would you expect a confirmation?

I wouldn't if he made no action. If I had actually blocked an action then yes, I would expect some confirmation.

Example: In MMPR Gonzo sent "You successfully protect JEROME" when I was protecting him (which i only did because he was confirmed red ranger...in my own defense)

really? I've never gotten confirmation that my block worked outside of something obviously missing in the next day's op - like a kill or a silence or something.

interesting.

Guys, I'm only on page 6 of Day 1. Do I really need to continue reading?

If you read on a little further you'll see that Shizzle didn't complain until the thread was 9 pages long and his pain limit was something like 8+ pages, so it's probably reasonable to expect you to keep going a bit further.

LOL

does the cardflip wording make it sound like aza was known to scum?

It said he was to be the ICA's secret back-up. I guess it means he could've been secret to them.

that was my take

that was my take

and that interpretaion implies to me that Agent 47 is in contact with scum or knows who are scum. We've seen only one kill each night. either scum don't have a kill or Agent 47 is the scumkiller, and that implies at least knowledge of who not to hit.

one of the major variants on the traitor role is they know who are scum, but scum don't know who they are.

Have you ever player a block or protective rile with Gonzo GMimg at FF for that matter?
You of all people, Ob, should know things are done quite differently there at FF and especially by Gonzo.
You told me plenty about it while i was GMing GitS.

^^^This only reinforces my thoughts that you are taking advantage of my assumptions about game mechanics and others ignorance regarding what I am accustomed to on another board.
Scummy, Ob.

yeah, I do realize that. but the blocker getting any kind of block results just seems really out there. it turns the role into an investigative one, especially if the roleblocker is on the scum team.

thinking on this...I played Gonzo's first and afaik only FF game. I don't remember you being a blocker in that game, Contra. So, I'm curious where your expectations about getting block info derived from.

gonna go check what your role in that game was.
