I almost was stupid enough to claim my role in my confirmation post, I almost posted "I've been ordered to confirm. Here I am, brain the size of a planet and they ask me to confirm. Call that role satisfaction? 'Cos I don't."
No, you are not brilliant for figuring out who I am, but I was lucky enough not to be a lynch-immune jester, or some other role that me winning would be at an improbability factor of 2 to the power of infinity minus 1 to 1 against

Spoiler:

If we lose two town at night and one by mislynching, the mafia are at voting parity.

Actually, a myslynch+one town night death leaves 6 players with 3 scum which means they don't need an extra kill to achieve voting parity and win.

I'm very tempted to end the game right now, it would take a miracle for town to win right now, but it's technically possible, so I'm going to let the night actions finish. Actually, let me check everyone's inventory, it might not even be technically possible even if town uses their items perfectly...

EDIT: Ahh, yes I forgot one townie crafted a sword and has melee skill. If he decides to go vig and chooses well AND one of the mafia's two kills gets prevented by a stealthboy or sneak skill then the game can keep going. If not mafia wins.

Spoiler:

damnit vieto, why didn't you put my name (read: role) on the list?

also:

Ms Marvel (Carol Danvers): Eculc

You are Ms. Marvel: a town character with a history in the secret service and NASA. Having had your DNA fused with Captain Mar-vell (not to be mistaken with Captain Marvel), you developed the ability to be able to use any action used on you exactly once. Also have some other powers, but your favourite one happens to be:

Energy Absorption: You can take any hit! Well, only when you are expecting it, of course. You have the nightly ability to protect a target, preventing them from being killed if they are targeted, and absorbing the hit instead. This then is fed back into your primary ability.

Cosmic Awareness: You are aware of some of the going-ons around you. As a result, you always know the first action of the night, as well as its target, and the user. You tend to forget anything more than that, as a different part of your personality takes over.

Seventh Sense: The Skrulls are really a dangerous threat, especially since they can control the lynch. You cannot be a skrull if you pick this role. In addition, your first vote each day and the first vote used on you each day cause you to scan the votee/voter to check if they are a skrull.

in other words, roband is wrong about not being able to see skrulls. I chose Energy absorption.

recruiting random people to a town talk would have been fun with this amount of scum. Why was I lynched so young?

Hey Tim. That spoiler is about you, but you can't read it!

Roband, why do you write spoilers about me? That ain't nice to do.. Also you'll be dead before N2. Just saying.

Hey roband? That spoiler is about you! You can't read it!

[eculc]

well, my last spoiler was about roband too. I didn't realize we had to point it out.

[roband]

Hahaha. You don't, I was just trying to wind Tim up.

[eculc]

no, I could tell. I hope you like imagining what's on the other side of that spoiler, by the way.

[roband]

Probably just says how proud you are to finally be in a game of mafia, and whatmore, you're in one which I've decided to grace my presence with.
I expect you're asking for advice from non-players about how to not be intimidated by me. And also which colour pen to use to write to your mother with the exciting news

[roband]

HHGTTG:

Spoiler:

Yo! I have no idea how to play mafia... so please go easy on me...

Also, mods, my schedule is a bit pack, so I can only post about 1-3 times per day.

ONLY 1-3 times per day?! Sounds like perfect amount to me!

Spoiler:

So that night came around much faster than I was expecting, completely lost track of days.

The other thing that Im currently trying to work out is whether or not to be a vig. I am town, and have so far all game managed to get 1 piece of leather. Therefore I used that plus some of my scrap to make a sword. I also have the melee weapons skill, so I can do 3 damage with my sword and kill someone. I was also thinking that most of town have armour and most scum don't therefore if I attack someone and they die they are scum and if they live probably town. Also it does mean that even at a tie we have not necessarily lost!

The issue is I don't really have a scum read on anyone! I was also hoping someone other than an engraged platypus would be lynched so that I could test his armour claim hence the unvote!

Fun fact: There are 3 town roles in play who have abilities that activate if they are the hammer. Lynches should be fun.

If Arthur does not turn out to be vanilla town, I will be very disappointed.

You won't be disappointed. Good call.

[Snark]

Avengers:

Spoiler:

I had a 2-shot anytime role-cop. Already used it because I have no patience, and I had a chance of losing one of them if a certain thing happened. Didn't want to take a chance.

Got back ahammel = Deadpool and ForAllOfThis = MODOK. Now to decide when to rat out FAOT and hope he doesn't have any vote manipulation powers that can help him avoid the lynch. I'm unsure of whether I should keep ahammel's identity to myself or not. Whichever way I decide, I'll probably end up regretting it. I may even try recruiting him tonight. It'd be semi-believable for a mercenary to adopt the alignment of whomever recruits him first. Yeah, I'm liking that idea more already. Though I wish I'd have copped someone more innocent because my recruiting power doesn't change my recruit's alignment. Which could lead to a really bad situation for me.

[matt96]

Hitchiker's Guide

Spoiler:

I assume people figured out from my first spoiler who I am, and I find it hilarious that I am convincing people I am NK immune, when I am really un-doctorable, but you probably didn't expect my character to be a cop, especially no one who is randomly told either the role or the alignment of the player I target.

[Angua]

Avengers

Spoiler:

I'm suspecting at least JSO and Tim of being fellow mafia traitors. They don't seem powered up enough for their respective roles.

[AngrySquirrel]

Crap, I missed the sign-ups for the Avengers game. Oh well, I'll avoid spoilers, so let me know if you need a replacement at some point Vieto.

[wam]

avengers

Spoiler:

I am suspicous that at least 1 of scum might turn against the rest of us. Which could make the end game interesting, if I live that far!

[Angua]

avengers

Spoiler:

Wam says they didn't get the choice to be a traitor, and that they are too evil to be recruited. Sounds like too evil to team up with other evil guys to me!

Also, it's great being paranoid about your scummates. There's probably some sort of psychological phenomenon of backstabbing going on, though I think I would be just as paranoid if I'd not gone for traitor.

Avengers:

Spoiler:

I suspect t1mm was using a 7th-sense power for that vote on adam. oh, I hope it's not a mind-control of some sort.

also: WTF snark?

[roband]

eculc: any chance of you getting an avatar? It makes telling posters apart much easier, in game threads

[RaceBandit]

The Resistance v5:

Spoiler:

If you're a Resistance v5 player and you're reading this, you're breaking rules.

Anyways. I was hoping to keep my cover a little longer, but with the suggestion that Close Eye be used on CF instead of me, I don't foresee myself being able to deceive them with a Pass since I can't change my disposition unless a Close Eye is used on me... if I read the power correctly. If I misinterpreted that bit, the other spies are probably gonna facebuzzsaw over this.

Spoiler:

I'm going to wager that there is a good chance that Snark aka Nick Fury is going to be dead by days end. Or if not him, someone more relevant.

[Adam H]

Resistance 5:

Spoiler:

Excellent... Assuming RaceBandit keeps his disposition at fail, we should be at 1-1 after this with wam and RaceBandit pitted against each other and all the useful plot powers gone. This should end up a pretty good game.

oh. OH. that's...pretty impressive. if snark is right, that is. if he's BSing us, well...I just hope this doesn't signal the end of the game already.

@ roband: later today, I'm at school right now, so I don't have access to anything I'd use as an avatar.

Spoiler:

There is no cube well, he had that exact option as a secondary ability, but he chose not to go that route. Honestly, I was tempted to say yes to watch everyone try to be the final voter like a flock of seagulls.

[ForAllOfThis]

Avengers:

Spoiler:

Vieto, why are you reigning on my parade! I lied about it being the first person so no-one would want to be the first person, and theoretically, no-one would want to vote for me. I suppose it works for the last person as well. Ah well, sorry about creating chaos with your voting system but you did give Snark a two-shot daytime rolecop =/. We will call it even I guess.

I'm going to kill Adam anyway. It seems unfair I'm the only person who gets taken out straight away. He'll probably call T1mm out on being scum superfast anyway, which would be bad for me.

[Snark]

Avengers:

Spoiler:

I feel bad for outing FAOT on D1. But now he's threatening to out Roband, who got outed D1 of Vieto's first Marvel Mafia. This is hilarious. I just hope I survive to D3 or more. I think I'll make this my personal win condition. In other news, I really don't want to be left holding that cosmic cube. But Adam seems to want to. Curious. Makes me wonder if he's got a boring role and wants to shake things up a bit.

Spoiler:

Im trying for the life of me to work out which role snark is based on his power but I can't

Also there seem to be a lot of very powerful players in this role.

Oral exam means I'm giving it in person to the examiners - they hopefully aren't judging it on my face!

Everyone else is posting spoilers, why shouldn't I get in on the action?

@ Snark

Oral exam means I'm giving it in person to the examiners - they hopefully aren't judging it on my face!

Shows that it's been a long time since I've taken speech class. My stupid brain told me "Hey, "oral" relates to the mouth" and then "the mouth is a part of the face"!

I feel like an idiot. But I also can't stop laughing. So it probably was worth it.

[Angua]

To be fair, given that I'm studying medicine, I could easily be having an exam on the face. (Though probably not for a year or two for just the face).
