Round 41: Warband Mafia

Y'know what? I think I'll throw my hat into the ring.

Due to unforeseen delays signups being closed shall be delayed until tomorrow at an unspecified time. Sorry.

Signups closed, roles are being sent.

Day 1 begins now. Polls close at 2 PM CDT tomorrow.

Cloak is the new me(TM).

Cloak - 1 - Zyquux

1/12

Kill Cloak? Kill Cloak.

Cloak - 2 - Massive, Zyquux

I prefer burnt Massive.

Cloak - 2 - Massive, Zyquux
Massive - 1 - Nyu

Total: 3/12

I would rather like to kill French before he manages to kill me. Also, a 100% mafia rate can't be ignored! (Yeah, I know it can, I just don't want to)

French - 1 - Zink
Cloak - 2 - Massive, Zyquux
Massive - 1 - Nyu

Total: 4/12

Zink Votan
Cloak is a Vanilla
I'M ALWAYS FUCKING MAFIA OR VANILLA
FUCKING WHY!?

French - 1 - Zink

If I can't kill him as a vanilla, I'll at least try and lynch the fucker! As they say, "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" and I'd be more than glad to throw it. Not gonna lie though Cloak, 2 vanillas sounds suspicious given the rounds I've been in up until now (everyone seems to have a role aside from Jimmy Hendrix) and I know that you tend to vote for your fellow mafioso in round 1. Voting for Cloak next round if Zink turns out to be town.

Huh. This is indeed true... French is the new Cloak?

Seems legit. Mafia twice in a row? Seems we found our three mafia kings.

You guys have no idea how hard it is for me to not force a 4-way tie right now.

That being said, Cloak's caps lead me to believe he's genuinely frustrated about his role of either mafia or vanilla. So I'm not sure if Cloak is mafia or not, but, like I've been told to a similar effect, "better to lose a vanilla town than a power role in a lunch." So, sorry Cloak.

It is such a waste of a SMASHING tie-opportunity, though.

Cloakvote as usual? I think so.

If French or Zink turn out to be the real mafia, I'm taking credit for it.

And I won't blame you

My money's still on Zink. It'd be safer to vote him off first in order to tell whether or not you were voting for a fellow mafioso round one.

As Nale said, it's better to take the chance of leaving day one with just a vanilla dead as long as there's the possibility of Cloak being mafia. I didn't want to vote Cloak before because we have been killing early game in...every game, but he kind of gives reasons to.

A tip for the the future is that you are better off claiming nothing on day one than claiming to be vanilla when you are in danger of being lynched. You are better off just claiming innocence and hoping you get lucky.

I've only played two games so far, but from what I've noticed GMs on this forum don't tend to like vanilla roles. Axel's round had none, and Stalin's only had the one because he ran out of roles. As I myself have been gifted with the role of vanilla, I may as well reveal in order to cast doubt on Cloak's claim.

This is really something that depends of the GM. We have already talked about the subject, people hate being vanilla but trying to add too many special roles made almost all of our rounds unbalanced to one side. Either way, vanillas are the good "sacrifices" when you don't have clues.

May as well get this out of the way, but I'm vanilla too. Looks like there's a lot of vanillas this round. Of course, it's hard to see how some special roles might fit into the world of Mount & Blade. Unless there's some other power role which can promote. Iiiinteresting....

Yup, hence why I care little about role revealing. :P I'm just here to lynch and get killed.

Uh huh. When it all come down to it, we're all here to have fun.
...but it'd be nice if we won too...

I feel really bad for Cloak and somehow I'm getting the impression we shouldn't be doing this to him but eh, first days.

Sorry bro, nothing personal. Kinda in at the deep end at this point.
