The Mafia with the Golden Gun Spy vs Spy Do you have a stiff upper lip? A keen eye for the subtle and unexpected? Do you enjoy the quiet of the night and the thrill of infiltration? Evil is afoot, and MI6 is looking for agents to defend against it! Keep calm and carry a silenced pistol with Her Mag...

@jimbobmacdoodle – Was I still wearing the bomb after Sabrar died? I never disconnected, and I was trying to think of a way to use it to take out the last scum (which likely wouldn’t work anyway because moody’s protective power made him the only NK choice). No, the bomb effectively disappeared with...

This is mostly just a post to say that I've seen everyone's comments and want to address them, but I gonna doing it at my laptop once I'm home will be more productive than trying to get everything whilst phone posting on the bus. A couple of key things to note though: when deciding on the setup, I i...

Out of interest, how many town remaining would there have to be with 1 Mafia and 1 SK alive to get the Underdog to convert to town ? Or is it basically impossible for the underdog to not become scum due to the multi all nature? If Town had been eliminated first, then the Underdog would have become ...

If anybody is interested, here is the full set of flavour I wrote for each night message and so on: https://docs.google.com/document/d/11hTC7eUS8qIq5e7oQWEFakceJ9IfECCQfI5SzM-B0Uc/edit?usp=sharing.

After a couple of hours, it was becoming clear that the Mouse was toying with the party. They’d ended up almost back at the camp. The group stopped and gathered around to discuss what to do. “I think we should send one of you two off to take on the Beast on your own,” said Sir LaserGuy. “Sure, it d...

That's hammer. No more posting. Day end post to follow later in the evening. Feel free to submit night actions in the meantime.

Sir MasterOfAll sidled up to Sir Jimbob as the group paused for breath. "I was just um... wondering if, um... anything else was found in Sir Mark_Cangila's belongings, say, maybe a lump of coal, like found on Sir moody?" "Hmmm?" responded Sir Jimbob, distractedly, his mind elsew...

Secret Santa 2018 (bessie may read):

Secret Santa 2018: I doubt LaserGuy is going to stand a chance today. I don't think he can plausibly play the "I am town card, so one of you is scum", unless he can come up with a good reason that renders both moody's and mpolo's results invalid, probably due to hidden mechanic...

Of Dogs and Mice The next morning, Sir Jimbob was woken up by shouting coming from the centre of the camp. He emerged from his tent, to see Sir bessie complaining to one of the squires about something. “What’s the matter?” he asked. Sir bessie, indicated the cage behind her. Inside was her hound, l...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: As things stand, LaserGuy is killing moody, who is protecting bessie, and being checked by MoA, who is also giving coal to LaserGuy, so MoA will know pretty definitively that LaserGuy is scum, and Mark and moody's flips should give the remaining information to confirm LaserGuy...

The chase to track the Mouse had exhausted everyone. Running in full-plate armour was not exactly the easiest of tasks. Why anybody thought it was a good idea to leave the horses behind was not clear at all. Darkness was falling, and there was still no sign of their prey. The hound seemed to be unc...

That's hammer. Will post day end post later.

The knights were running ahead, arguing over what they should do when they finally caught up with the Mouse. It took a while for one of the group to look around and realise that Sir Jimbob and his entourage were nowhere to be seen. The group stopped and waited. After a few minutes, Sir Jimbob emerg...

Secret Santa 2018: Mark believes LaserGuy is scum, but LaaerGuy only thinks Mark is indie, which means he might not shoot him, expecting there to be one more day. Both need a town lynch or they're in trouble, as either flipping non town essentially confirms the other. If Mark had claimed indie e...

Drive-by post as I go to bed. Don't forget that deadline is 8pm UTC on Monday, i.e. approximately 21 hours time. I will try to get a votals post etc up in the morning.

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: @Vicarin, if there's a mislynch tonight, I could see scum killing each other, although I agree it's relatively unlikely in that case for various reasons that I will go through when I have more time (LG doesn't know SK still exists, MC cannot kill both tonight and t...

Secret Santa 2018:

Spoiler:

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: N2, bessie's target of you was swapped with one of MoA's at random, which turned out to be you again, so effectively there was no redirection. The message by MoA to you then got blocked by that protection again. The curse, and one (or maybe 2) other abilities (...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: I'm still not convinced it was wrong to include moody's ability in the game, but I do think I should have included a Godfather. Although town seems quite strong, many abilities were pretty useless or very weak at least (plytho's chat ability, MoA's original ven...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: Relevant N1 action submissions: 1) bessie targeted Sabrar. 2) wam targeted bessie. 3) MoA targeted multiple people including Sabrar and bessie. 4) Sabrar targeted bessie. 5) SuicideJunkie targeted Sabrar. 6) mpolo targeted Sabrar and MoA. Resolution: 1)...

Day 4: Explosive Presents Several of the knights did not get much sleep that night, as they considered all that had happened the previous day. Some questioned what honour truly means, whilst others tried to figure out why Sir SuicideJunkie had gone off dashing up the hill. Others wondered why Sir S...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018 (@Sabrar): Going off memory here, because I don't have quick access to my notes, but IIRC, there were two redirections involved, which actually meant bessie targeted herself, and your message got redirected to her as well. bessie's protection couldn't then prevent that ...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: Underdog is different to cult, because the Underdog knows about the upcoming changes to their alignment. I'd be hesitant to even call it an alignment change, since they don't have an alignment as such up front. Rather, it's more like an indie who is trying to keep the ...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018 @SuicideJunkie: All Mark has to do is shoot successfully (which he can do by targeting the remaining protective ability), assuming he has the sense not to use his other ability. Secret Santa 2018 @ jimbob I'm a bit confused there. Do you mean for stealth reasons, a hid...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018 @SuicideJunkie: You might well be right. Mark was effectively cleared of being Mafia for blocking the N1 kill, and moody's second shot isn't going to confirm anything one way or the other that wasn't already broadly believed, and could reinforce a Godfather suspicion. L...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018 (SuicideJunkie may read): Strictly speaking, self-hammering like that is probably playing against your win condition, but it's actually worked out better for you. Because your faction was the first to be eliminated, you now have a team-mate in the form of Mark, who has joined y...

After how long the previous day had dragged on for, this day seemed to go much faster for some reason. However, in many regards otherwise, it was basically the same. Sir Jimbob was disappointed that none of the group seemed to be rushing off to take on the beast up the mountain. How could the quest ...

"Do, what should we do to destroy that mouse, everyone?" asked Sir Jimbob. "I propose we send another knight to take it on. I think Sir LaserGuy should have the honour," replied Sir Vicarin. "Wait, who are you?" Votals: LaserGuy(2): Vicarin, SuicideJunkie SuicideJunkie...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: In retrospect, putting in the mass cop ability in its current form without some kind of Godfather was a mistake, even with the two shot limitation, when combined with the XOR cop. Assuming moody survives tonight, he'd be best off submitting his second action, and there really ...

jimbobmacdoodle

Secret Santa 2018: Right, let's see what the players make of last night, with two NKs. LaserGuy is very fortunate to get a kill today. He originally was going to kill Sabrar, but changed his mind. Meanwhile, bessie protected Sabrar last night. He changed his target to plytho, who Vicarin was goi...

D3: Christmas Chaos For many, the following night was not a quiet one. Many of the knights were up to various schemes and plots to make sure their agenda was fulfilled or to try to prepare themselves for the next day. The next morning, they emerged from their tents to see freshly fallen snow on the...

Night deadline has passed. You may no longer change your action. Result PMs and D2 flavour should be posted in the next 12 hours, but I'm going to bed! Happy New Year!
