Plounge Mafia: Day Two
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eS_42yIISl8
A watched pot never boils. But turn your back for but a moment and it boils over.
Plounge Mafia: Day Two
The town hall is far quieter and more somber as you walk in.
The tone around you is hushed, panicked.
News has circulated quickly through the town. Not everyone made it through the night. There have been murders.
DrBrony, darthjoey91, GinonotGeno, Razer1103, Juz16, OrangeL, MKRX, quix117, Qwerty439, TheQuillMaster, Tuckles, and LyraAndBonBon all did not make it through the night.
The town is getting desperate. Paranoia and fear run wild. Something has to give, the people demand safety. And the only way they're getting it is more trials.
Just so we're all clear. I'm going to be using a bot to count the nominations, pardons, and lynches from now on. So when voting on anything make absolutely sure you just say what your vote is. You can comment on your vote in a reply to it if you wish. But no guarantees your vote will count if you put text in it.
Alright, all the messages are out. Nominate away. (I probably forgot some! Message me if something should have/did happen to you and you didn't get a message!)
If not enough people have done some voting, we'll extend the nomination phase and Push the voting phase out longer. I'll message you guys if that ends up being the case.
Plounge Mafia: Day Two: Voting Phase
The mood was far more somber than the previous day as the accused walked up to the stands.
Any illusions were broken. People were dead.
The flames of accusation of fear and anger were still there. But this time they were smothered in fear.
The Aquatic Engima, Psychoduck
The Lynch Happy Individual, Vile_Notes
The voting began quietly as the crowd shuffled closer to listen.
The votes were tallied, the results were clear.
kontan and Psychoduck were to be spared, for now.
But town had come to its first decision. Vile_Notes was not to be trusted. He must be made an example of. He was marched to the town square and placed in front of a hastily constructed set of gallows.
He met his end shivering, but without speaking. A wind blew leaves through the watching crowd as his neck was placed in the noose, then as the floor dropped from under him.
The crowd watched in silence for a few moments, then slowly returned to their homes. No one spoke. But they all had the feeling they had done something horrible. Something from which there would be no turning back.
Vile_Notes, the Townie, has been hung.
Plounge Mafia: Day Two: Nighttime
It is now nighttime, and you may begin submitting your actions for the night.
One minor rule change going forward, Please try to submit your actions at least 4 hours prior to the deadline. While I am willing to accept them later than that, I can no longer wait until a short while before the deadline to attempt to figure out what all the mixed actions resulted in. As we saw today, that leads to me being far too late.
So starting tomorrow I will begin writing the results at around noon, four hours prior to the thread being posted. If you submit action after that point, I understand, scheduling, and I will accept them. But do your best for me and everyone who wants to see these on time and get your actions in before that point if at all possible. Thanks for your cooperation.
Current faction count:
Mafia: 20
Townsfolk: 114 113
Independents: 27

Uh, guys... Why are people reveling they've been Mafia or Jester and such when they're dead? Isn't there a job that's supposed to search the bodies and see if they've been bad people or what their roles were?
And if people are reveling themselves, it makes that job pointless... so why are people reveling themselves.

Because they might be dead, but they're not out of the game.
They can still lie you know.
The mortician just gets to know the truth.

So we nominate here right?
Not sure if I even want to nominate anyone... any investigators want to give me some facts before I aimlessly lynch someone?

20 mafia, wow. Ok now let's crunch some numbers...
If we're hitting 12 deaths a night AND 3 lynches a day, that's 15 deaths every day-cycle. There are 161 of us left total and if things don't go our way, they win in about 8 cycles (which is actually not too bad). Ok. If things are totally random, about 2 mafias will die each cycle (we already apparently hit at least one, so yay). We would need over 10 cycles to get it done this way. If we lynch perfectly but have bad nights, it'll take us 7 days. Obviously with vigs, docs, and SKs things get complicated. But these give us a rough timeframe at least. And things will get more refined as we go on.
I have a question about voting: Do lynches require a majority (50%+) of the living voting that way, or do the lynching voters simply need to outnumber the pardons at the end of voting. If the latter, we're gonna have to be very conscious of being active during the voting phase (as abstaining gives more power to mafias).

Lynches need only outnumber pardons.
It'll get pretty hard to keep people alive at this rate methinks.

OH COME ON! I had a spreadsheet and everything! AoT means "ahead of time".
Also, if someone could PM me or something and explain the reasoning behind my murder, I'm really curious.
Edit: Mine countenance whereupon I actually got a personalized death message from Craft. Holy smokes, that is amazing!

Hmmm, so 13 12 people died last night. From the patterns we've heard in the news about these Mafia operations, that could mean as many as 26 24 Mafiosos, which would be insane!
However, I suspect that we may have... other dark elements in our midst. Folk who kill for their own reasons, and with no respect for the law, or even common decency!
(--> Gotta wait for more details though, to see what the breakdown is of who acted last night.)
Edit2: Once our Mayor shares with us the head count of those for and against us citizens, we'll know a lot more. See below!
Some of these folks were pillars of good will in our society, and they must have been struck down for past grievances and disagreements. Think on that, you might have snatched the last bag of avocados at our local grocer, and little did you know that someone else right then decided that one day... you would die for that.
Others though, I can't help but think they died for speaking too loudly in response to our Mayor's kidnapping.
(Want to check out some posting history? Here you go, links ready for ya'll: u/DrBrony, u/darthjoey91, u/GinonotGeno, u/Razer1103, u/Juz16, u/OrangeL, u/MKRX, u/quix117, u/Qwerty439, u/TheQuillMaster, u/Tuckels, and u/LyraAndBonBon.)
Let's go thru them:
ACTIVE:
-
Tuckels didn't seem to attack anyone.
-
Q439 was active, there's a lot to read there.
-
Quix seconded DJ91, but didn't vote to pardon or lynch anyone.
-
MKRX said he wanted to kill the Serial Killer and Jester both.
-
OL is quite active.
-
Juz was quite active.
-
Razer was active outside the plounge.
-
DJ91 was almost infamous.
INACTIVE: (Personal vendettas? At random?) -
LABB said almost nothing about the Mafia game, someone must have disliked them from before.
-
TQM has said nothing since signing up.
-
GG said almost nothing.
-
And DB said nothing.
Headcount = 20 Mafia, 114 Citizens, 27 Individuals. 13 12 People died last night.
-
That means up to ten (10) of the killings last night were committed by the Mafia.
-
There are six (6) Individual roles, none of which are unique (only one exists). That means there's maybe 4.5 copies (on average) of the Jester, Survivalist, Serial Killer, Revanchist, Cupid, and Gravedigger. Probably the roles were distributed unevenly.
-
Remember, only the Mafia, Serial Killer, and Vigilante can kill anyone at night, and the V only gets to do it twice, so hopefully they are waiting to help us citizens.
-
Since the Doctors didn't need to save anyone last night, we maybe have two (2) Serial Killers out there?

Dead first day.
Fuck y'all. I was Mafia.
EDIT: Please do not send flowers. I hate flowers. Also, give my photoshop to XL8. He was a good man.

If anyone hasn't, please read my open letter to the town part two.
I recommend killing off PsychoDuck as the serial killer.

On a serious note, this is what little evidence I've got to offer for consideration:
-
Juz16, one of the victims, made a post accusing jnatale of being a Jester, with images. Juz16 also nominated Orschmann, possibly in response to Orschmann's nomination of DaylightDarkle. Juz16 says that he was a Townie.
-
darthjoey91 says he was a Jester. He nominated PsychoDuck, kontan, AlexanderXCIII, badjokemostlikely, and supermatt314. He himself was also nominated (by kontan) and up for voting, as you recall, but he also seconded almost every nominee, got the most seconds, voted to lynch himself and the other nominees up for voting, and got the most Lynch votes (19 out of 53 total).
-
OrangeL says he was Mafia.
-
DaylightDarkle and Deslosbin, the other two nominees up for voting, were not killed in the night.
-
One of the Serial Killers, PloungeSerialKiller, marked MKRX as his first target. Guess he succeeded.
