Night Zero/Day One

[dizzymrslizzy]

See I get tripped up, because I found this stupid epicmafia.com site, where it's great to play quick little 5 minute games, but they all lie/troll regardless of what role they have. A real cop will fake guilties, just for kicks. People will claim and retract 2-3 different roles, so it's hard to get a real feel for what's going on in the game.

Anyway, Thanks for the advice. I also have to throw away my thin skin, and not get upset at people voting for me/my team, and just have fun.

Whew.... I definitely wouldn't play there. LOL

Incy Wincy Spider climbing up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.

NAME: Incy Wincy Spider

SIDE: Duke of York

ROLE: Detective

WIN CONDITION: All threats to the Duke of York's side have been removed.

BACKGROUND:
You're nothing like your cousin who kept frightening Miss Muffet. Beside going up and down the water spout, you spend your time spinning webs and keeping an eye out for dangers. Since you have several eyes, you're a natural at it.

POWERS:

1. As a houseguest of the Grand Old Duke, you keep watch as best you can. Each Night you may try to learn the loyalty of one target.

2. If someone tries to squash you, you have a 50% chance of poisoning your killer, who will then die in two Days.

Compare with my actual role PM:




Incy Wincy Spider climbing up the spout
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.

NAME: Incy Wincy Spider

SIDE: Knave of Hearts

ROLE: Roleblocker

WIN CONDITION:
1. When there are equal numbers of the Duke of York's side and the Knave of Heart's side.

BACKGROUND:
Why does no-one like you? I mean its not like you're your cousin who kept frightening Miss Muffet. Oh wait, its because you enjoy it and the Knave of Hearts was promising some good opportunities. Time to give them all arachnophobia.

Your fellow soldiers can be found at catinasuitmafia.proboards.com/board/4/knaveofhearts

password:v3lv3tf1st

POWERS:

1. As a soldier of the Knave of Hearts, you may carry out a Night Kill on behalf of the group. A target and killer must be chosen by your group with the Knave of Hearts having final say.

2. If you are not carrying out the Night Kill, you can frighten one player. The good news is that having been frightened, they will do nothing that Night. Send a PM stating which player will receive your attention.




And the sample PM:




The Grand Old Duke of York,
he had ten thousand men.

NAME: Grand Old Duke of York

SIDE: Duke of York

ROLE: Duke, General, Leader and All Round Hero

WIN CONDITION: All threats to the Duke of York's side have been removed.

BACKGROUND:
You're the Grand Old Duke of York. You led the rebellion against the vicious, cruel and evil Knave of Hearts after he seized power and took over the land. You led your men into battle and were on the verge of winning, before you were cruelly struck down at the moment of glory.

Now, all you can do is cheer on your side from the spoiler threads hoping they can finish the job for you.

POWERS:

1. Perfect Knowledge of the game. You know the good from the bad.
2. You're Dead. Guess you won't be telling anyone anything after all.

Okay, so now I have something I can grab and paste at a moment's notice if I have to claim under pressure.

I hate to use the old standby of a detective claim, but the real beauty of the claim is how completely balls-wrong my results will be.

When I claim many guilty results, and suspect I might be an insane cop, that will possibly throw people for a loop.

The real problem is, it's me claiming it. People should be able to anticipate my web of lies by now, and avoid getting caught in it. People don't even believe a true town mason claim from me on Day One anymore....

[askthepizzaguy]

I plan on breadcrumbing my results, too. In true veteran-mafia-player-as-detective fashion.

Rubs hands evilly.

[askthepizzaguy]

I think I just completely pwned Pleonast's cryptogram.

Tee hee. Think he'll burst a blood vessel if I guess the top two lines of his role PM?

[dizzymrslizzy]

LMAO!

[askthepizzaguy]

In case you're wondering how I "solved" it, I ran it through an anagram solver and it came up with nothing, so I ran it through a cryptogram solver and the only thing on the list that made any sense in relation to this game was "woodpecker", and then I did a search for woodpecker nursery rhymes and lo and behold there was one.

I'm not magical, just logical.

[askthepizzaguy]

I also do penis jokes.

[dizzymrslizzy]

I just suck at this game! Blah

[askthepizzaguy]

Bah, it's just random D1 noise.

[askthepizzaguy]

I note that I am attempting to do a soft save by going on the offensive.

Worst case, I look like I've been defending Guiri, which may result in his lynch whenever I die and flip scum.

Much better than directly defending you, dying, and then you dying.

Since it is offense on gnarly and defense on guiri, that doesn't necessarily imply that anyone else was even on my mind.

[askthepizzaguy]

The best defense is a good o-ffense. I always say.

Hahahahaha, pwnt the detective already. Nice.

If we can lynch or murder him soon, that's worth the trade. Even if one of us dies as a result of it.

[askthepizzaguy]

Sorry Dizzy, I'm going to distance from you here. Hopefully they decide to lynch Paranoia instead of you.
