Oh, that would imply that <Icege> would need to role claim, I gotcha now.
My point was this: If the Mafia believes <Beta> to be protected then they won’t use a kill on him because it’ll be wasted. This would potentially allow <Icege> to literally protect other targets while the threat of protecting <Beta> is still very prominent.
@ pie this plan isn’t really as complex as you want to make it appear:
<Beta> claims
<Icege> protects him until <Beta> gets <Kaz>'s name
<Beta> tells everyone <Kaz>'s name
Everyone lynches <Kaz>
Again, the point isn’t that the plan is complicated in and of itself. The point is that nothing else about how those roles (and frankly, anybody else) plays can hinder that plan, or we end up in a hole. Vynce and Synonym showed how to coordinate in the Vamps/Werewolves game, but many of the roles there were also lovers, and those two are excellent players. I just don’t trust that this plan will work out, even if it seems simple.
Only way the plan can backfire for sure is if <iceage> gets killed before night 3 but the odds of that happening ain’t too high. I’m still unsure about this plan though.
The deepest this hole can get (assuming a halfway competent Medic, which everyone here is capable of being) is losing <Beta> which, while isn’t good, isn’t terrible either. I’d rather lose a minor role trying to nab a Mafia than letting an opportunity go to waste because “someone might mess up”. If the Medic can’t figure out how to work this plan then we’re probably screwed anyway and I don’t see how a role besides <Icege> & <SWB> can interfere with this.
I see your points, but I’m still thinking critically about this. Especially about that idea that no other role can screw with it…
@MP: I don’t think the following was covered explicitly…maybe it was in the sign-up thread, but I didn’t keep up 100%. What if SWBeta comes out, then the Mafia enforces him? Is his power nullified, meaning that he doesn’t get the name? If so, and if he’s continually enforced, does the name reveal get “delayed” in a sense?
I like DG’s plan at first glace. I think <Icege> should be competent enough to follow through but I also think that <SWB> should see a majority or be confident enough in his conviction to RC.
It seems likely that they would do that anyways. Unless they hit <SWB> of course.
I’ll probably vote inactive if there are any. If not Zoo because he is always the funniest person to kill imo.
Good question by pie concerning the <ForgeDigger>-<SWB> matchup
I like that subtle stab that my points haven’t been thought-out. Not. Aside from a possible enforce like you said, then I don’t see anything.
Moving on, who does everyone think <RadicalFuzz> targeted for the pre-game ability? Likely a power player, but that still leaves a large candidate pool. It’d be pretty ironic for <RadicalFuzz> to target RadicalFuzz with the ability, so I’m kind of hoping that’s what happened :lol:
The existence of <RF>'s ability makes me a bit more iffy about the whole <SWB>RC because they could have rolled medic so the whole crux of the plan is dead in the water.
If I were <RF> I would have investigated The Chief just to make sure he isn’t <The Chief> because of how fuckin scary he was in the game he got it (PW).
I guess he’d take one of the bigger names, to find out how much of a threat they can be and who to take out early. RF, PW, Chief, Pie would be good targets for this reason. I’d have picked Synonym because that due is scary good, but who knows if they know that. I’m not sure it really matters though, what can you do but just play like normal and hope it wasn’t you (or that it was you, depending on being roled/roleless)
Umm… you seem sensitive. Objectively, the group has pointed to at least two holes in your reasoning so far. It’s not a personal dig at you, it’s an attempt to reduce our risk and think through the plan before committing to it. I hope the teasing from last game didn’t get to you. I played way worse than you did, and in any case, nobody meant it. You’re a power player, and so I’m mindful that you might also be mafia and trying to steer the discussion. Hence my critical thinking instead of taking your words at face value.
In the spirit of moving on to the other guessing game… does it really matter? I’d’ve picked pretty much at random, but it actually wouldn’t have been somebody that I’d be nominating to the Godfather for a kill, since that person would be dead soon anyway and the power might be wasted.
Both Fuzz and I are obviously ballsy enough to RC mafia this game with our avatars. lol RF more so than me but in either case, yomi is in full swing this game.
If Radical Fuzz wanted to be like Radical Fuzz he’d have probably chosen Pimp Willy because that’s what Radical Fuzz would’ve done right? Iono.
< This guy is not concerned.
If I got the carpenter role again we would be screwed. If mafia thought I got UC (what would the odds be of that, I really wanted it though), then the power of these avatars confirms RF and I are definitely on to something.
Pimp Willy’s role claim is similar to mine in that it was established long before the game started. No need to explain Fuzz, it would just kind of suck to be you if you gathered all of that suspicion pregame and ended up landing a mafia role. lol
Pimp Willy’s posts are clean. Too clean. Lando levels of clean.
Page 2, 10% check in rate. Game is in full swing. Impossible right? Not in my opinion. @HAX am I doing it right?
My posts are only clean because there’s nobody here to go in on yet, once somebody makes a stupid check in post and is all like “oh hey guys wow 3 pages already I have to read to catch up” then I’ll be getting dirty lol
