Don't count on it...

Okey-doke.

Upsilon was a townie, SPsnow02 (a townie) has been murdered, and it is now daytime.

We got three players still, one of whom is mafia. 2 votes to lynch, and pick the right one.

by **nsmjohn** » Sat Jun 28, 2008 6:51 pm UTC

I just want to warn the other townie to be careful. If you vote for someone the Mafia person can hop on and insta kill them.

by **nsmjohn** » Sat Jun 28, 2008 7:06 pm UTC

Wow... I might have better luck picking the last person by flipping a coin...

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sat Jun 28, 2008 9:07 pm UTC

Wow...

Kells has always felt more suspicious to me than nsmjohn, but come on, I wouldn't have thought either of you would be mafia. I spent some time last night gathering quotes and vote counts and I have some notes in a text file I need to put together, but I am on my lunch break so I don't have enough time. I'll make a real post this evening. Let's not cast any votes until everyone has weighed in.

by **kellsbells** » Sat Jun 28, 2008 10:26 pm UTC

Oh crap. I just got back from a rather extended sleepover at a friend's house, and now we're down to three.

So I have to pick between nsmjohn and the moo prophet? Man, I hadn't suspected either of you at *all*. I thought my suspicions of Upsilon were on target, but I guess I was wrong again. Well, we suspected him from the beginning, so I guess the seemingly innocent and the seemingly guilty are not what they appear.

nsmjohn wrote:Wow... I might have better luck picking the last person by flipping a coin...

This. Seriously. Right now I'm leaning microscopically towards the moo prophet, not because he vaguely accused me, but just because he hasn't said quite as much over the game and that may have been how he avoided suspicion. But again, I seriously have no idea.

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 3:52 am UTC

So, I went back over the votes and here is something I threw together

Day 1:
John Votes Spoon
John unvotes Spoon
John Votes Jakeyizle
Kells Votes MatrinW
Kells Unvotes MartinW
Kells Votes OverBored
John Unvotes Jakeyizle
John Votes Overbored
The Moo Prophet did not Vote

Day 2:
Kells Votes MartinW
The Moo Prophet Votes MartinW
John did not Vote

Day 3:
John Votes Une See
The Moo Prophet did not Vote
Kells did not Vote

Day 4:
The Moo Prophet Votes Upsilon
Kells Votes Drconcon
John votes Drconcon

Day 5:
John Votes Tigion
The Moo Prophet Votes Tigion
Kells did not vote

Day 6:
John Votes Jakeyizle
Kells votes Jakeyizle
The Moo Prophet did not Vote

Day 7:
The Moo Prophet Votes Ramses IV
John Votes Ramses IV

Day 8:
John Votes Akanotu
The Moo Prophet Votes Silknor
Kells Votes Akanotu
The Moo Prophet Unvotes Silknor
The Moo Prophet Votes Akanotu

Day 9:
We all vote Upsilon

My thoughts were that if the last mobster's words aren't giving away anything, maybe their actions would? Well, I didn't find much, except that Kells didn't vote for a single mafia B until AKAnotu, after he had suspicion cast on him for his not voting against Tigion. Then there is the somewhat circumstantial evidence lobbed against him about how he and ramses voted within minutes of eachother to finish of Jake, and night was over very shortly after that. Taking into account when someone is and isn't active on the board may be a meta-gaming slightly, but there it is.

Of course, if John is the last mafia, I can't see a way to get it out of his activity thus far. So, John, if you are mafia and want to vote for Kells, I will vote with you and congratulate you on avoiding suspicion. If you are a townie and agree with me, then great, we win.

If neither of you have responded before I go to bed, then I am going to vote Kells and see how things turned out in the morning.

Either way, we need to end this and start a new game!!!

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 3:52 am UTC

SHE!! Kells....SHE! Sorry ><

by **kellsbells** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 5:35 am UTC

Well. Looking over that vote compilation, nothing jumps out at me... And then moo prophet has suspicion directed at me, so guys I'll just say it: I'm a townie. Whoever the other one is, please don't vote for me because then we will lose and you will feel bad.

However, I also have no idea who to vote for. My only sense is that the remaining mafia has pressure on him to point the finger at a townie to draw suspicion away, so the fact that moo is accusing me is one of the very few reasons (moo voting for silknor despite arguments against it) I'm accusing him.

So, I guess...
Vote: The Moo Prophet

If it's you, nsmjohn, I congratulate your stealthiness, and now it's up to you to make the final call. Good luck choosing right (unless you're mafia, in which case, you are devilishly sneaky).

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 5:45 am UTC

So be it. I am not mafia.

Vote: Kellsbells

Godspeed, NSMJohn (Unless, of course, you are the final mafia, in which we just handed you the town.)

by **kellsbells** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 5:49 am UTC

I'll feel really silly if it is nsmjohn. Wait, maybe it is. Ahhh... confusion!

Maybe we shouldn't force him. Maybe we should both unvote until he appears to talk about it.

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 5:50 am UTC

Actually, I like that Idea. I really wanted everyone to say something before we voted.

Unvote: NSMJohn

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 5:52 am UTC

AHhha, haha, that was quite a typo.

Unvote: Kellsbells

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 6:27 am UTC

Well, I imagine Kellsbells isn't going to retract her vote this evening, as unfortunate as that is (especially since she suggested it before I did, after she was the first to cast a vote.) I am going to go ahead and reinstate my vote, and hope that the game will be over in the morning, one way or the other. (One way being that John votes for kells, who is mafia, and we win, the other being that John is mafia and we lose.)

by **The Moo Prophet** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 6:27 am UTC

Vote: Kellsbells

Forgot the important part. GG.

by **kellsbells** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 6:58 am UTC

Hmmm. All right then. I'll keep my vote, I suppose. I hope I didn't lead us astray.

(Sorry, I was watching a movie before)

by **The Moo Prophet** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 2:49 am UTC

Ok, I have a crazy idea if the mods approve. We open voting to all the players that are dead for 24 hours. They can vote once, for myself, Kells, or John, no retractions, and no discussion. We give them 24 hours to vote. Majority rules after 24 hours, if John doesn't show up. If he does show up to vote, then my vote, Kells' vote and his count. Just to get the game over with. If Kellsbells and the mods are ok with this, let me know.

by **Azrael001** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 4:11 am UTC

The other solution is to vote for John.

by **Jahoclave** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 4:13 am UTC

Or just elect Jaho to be your overlord and be done with it.

by **The Moo Prophet** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 4:22 am UTC

Except that I don't think John is the last member of the mafia. Of course we could just vote for him and get it over with. Kells?

by **There-is-no-spoon** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 4:35 am UTC

Or you could call it a draw. Look it is 50/50 anyway.

by **kellsbells** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 4:51 am UTC

We could just vote for him. Why not? He's taking too long and the fact that we both care this much makes me hope you really are the other townie.

Unvote: The Moo Prophet
Vote: nsmjohn

by **Gojoe** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 5:32 am UTC

now i am about to declare night time.
before i do, i just want to make sure i don't screw this up lol. so the votes are
kellbells - john
the moo prophet - john
nsmjohn -

So you are lynching john?
Because it will be night time for all of about 10 min no matter what.
tell me if you confirm these votes (anyone's confirmation will do)

by **Jahoclave** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 5:50 am UTC

I confirm them. I want to know if the mafia's gone three for three.

by **Gojoe** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 6:15 am UTC

Right, so it is now night time
Nsmjohn is strung up. etc etc.

by **Gojoe** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 6:20 am UTC

on the dawn of the next morning, the only person left to see it is The Moo Prophet.
KellsBells was slaughtered. In a pool of blood.

Not even having to look TMP knew Nsmjohn was a townie. He had done it he had out lived them all...

Well that is that. I would like to applaud everyone that played except me. I got very busy in the end (till now) and i apologize for that. Thank you mr Co-mod for saving my ass.

And on a high note i think that there-is-no-spoon is a legend. He only incorrectly role blocked some one once i think (except for his death). If only you guys left ramses IV....
Good game guys.

by **Rodan** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 6:22 am UTC

The End.

Dammit, the townies lost again.

by **Gojoe** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 6:26 am UTC

i know! 3 for 3 to the mafia... they are getting better each round though

by **The Moo Prophet** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 8:00 am UTC

Actually, if you don't mind, I put this together 3 days ago when I assumed it would be the three of us and I could get John to vote against Kellsbells.

*ahem*

As dusk falls NSMjohn and The Moo Prophet haul Kellsbells up onto the shortdrop and place the noose around her neck. They watch with grim resignation as the life drains from her. It was not quick. Once it is done and Kellsbells is very clearly dead, NSMJohn climbs onto the platform to check the contents of the dead Townie's pockets. Finding them empty, horror paints his face as he turns to face The Moo Prophet. NSMJohn sees a revolver leveled at him, a flash of light, and hears a dull roar. Pain blooms in his chest and he falls to the ground. As the world starts to fade, he gets a look at The Moo Prophet's pistol. On the handle is engraved: "Butterfly Godfather."

Anyway, when's the next round already?!

by **Gojoe** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 9:06 am UTC

that was great moo.
I am ready. Who is the great mod going to be?

by **The Moo Prophet** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 9:10 am UTC

OH! OH! I wanna do a stint as Mod! I have time to check the boards at around 10AM and 10 PM Central every day at the least. That should be often enough.

Edit: Edit for the sake of editing now that the game is over.

by **Gojoe** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 9:12 am UTC

I think someone else was already doing it, but if noone else puts up their hand.... you might as well. see what the public has to say in the next day

by **The Moo Prophet** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 9:15 am UTC

Yeah, I think I'd rather play than mod, but I have a couple of interesting ideas for round 5 if someone else wants to mod #4

by **nsmjohn** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 10:53 am UTC

Sorry, busy weekend. I come back to discover I was hanged. Awesome. On the plus side I went to a crazy party last night, got fall down drunk, and then spent all day today dicking around trying to calm down the hangover.

by **The Moo Prophet** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 3:41 pm UTC

Aww, we didn't wanna hang you John, I wanted you to hang Kellsbells with me! That would have been so much more fun.

by **Tigerlion** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 5:13 pm UTC

Woo! Go Moo Prophet! Butterfly Power!

by **kellsbells** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 7:11 pm UTC

Yay I got killed! Oh wait...

Well, way to go Moo Prophet. Even I saw that you had good arguments against me. Ha. Oh well. On to round 4!
