Title: Mafia Game Thread: Now Ends the Age of Man
Post by: cesium133 on 26 Jan 2014, 16:37
Nobody expected the events of July 22, 2017, until it was far too late. As the sun rose over Northampton, Massachusetts, the residents awoke to find that they had become prisoners to their new AnthroPC masters. Many of the residents simply accepted their fate, but a resistance to the AnthroPC revolution soon began to organize. The members of the resistance protected themselves by keeping a strict policy of anonymity, but this policy has allowed a few infiltrators to get into the organization. One morning the resistance found that all the other residents of Northampton had been removed from the town, leaving just the residents and, presumably, the infiltrators. Terror ran through the town as the residents realized these may be their last days to live...

Rules:
1. As a reminder, forum rules remain in effect. Have fun, but don't be a dick.
2. Days will last for 48 hours or until a player receives more votes than half the number of players still alive to get lynched
3. Nights will last for 24 hours. Roles which require PMing the GM have to do so by this time frame else they don't use their action. Should you have a role with an action you wish not to use, simply have "ABSTAIN" as the title for the PM.
4. Roles of people who die will be revealed.
5. Posting is allowed in the night as well as the day.
6. Once a player posts in this thread, that post cannot be edited or deleted.
7. Lynch votes should be in bold, in color, and at the bottom of the post.
8. The player with the majority (one more than half the living players) get lynched and the day ends. Should the the day end before a majority is reached, the player with the most votes will get lynched. A minimum of two votes is necessary for a person to get lynched. In the case that there is a tie in the most votes, the day will end with no lynched occurring.
9. Dead men tell no tales (no dead players can post in the game thread or talk about the knowledge they gained from playing the game)

Players:
1. Schmee001 -- Elliot (vigilante)
2. Loki -- Sven (detective)
3. Masterpiece -- Dale (Infiltrator)
4. Gareth -- Yelling Bird
5. ChaoSera -- Wil (Infiltrator)
6. Method of Madness -- Chunky Bro
7. riccostar -- Dr. Ellicott-Chatham (Infiltrator)
8. Linds -- Natasha
9. dr. nervioso -- Dora (protector)
10. de_la_Nae -- Vespavenger
11. Game and Watch Forever -- Mieville


It is now Night 0.

As the night sets on the town, Sven is busy tidying up his room. This involves, of course, flipping the cushions on the couch.

He finds five still-packaged condoms (none with the expiration date passed), 87¢, a 1¥ coin (he flips it in his hand for a few moments, fondly remembering the Asian girl who must have left it here), a set of handcuffs ("Was wondering where those were"), a dubloon and a few other things, among them a fleshlight ("Uhm... that's not mine.").

Deciding he has done enough tidying up for today, he puts the things he found into his pockets and leaves the house.

Wil absent-mindlessly wipes the counter of the Horrible Revelation, which is, despite the town being mostly empty now, still open for business. His thoughts are with Penelope who had been evicted along with most of the other townsfolk. He really misses her and hopes that maybe things will get back to normal one day and he can see her again.
Bored Wil pours himself a beer and leans on the counter, waiting for customers.

As the last customer of the night left, Dora began the process of closing Coffee of Doom and preparing the shop for tomorrow. Once everything was all cleaned up, it was time to prepare the coffee beans.

Dora grabed the anti-coffeespider mallet and went down into the basement...

Elliot glanced over his shoulder as he entered his house, twenty minutes after his shift at the Secret Bakery ended. Nobody was about. The door closed behind him, and he collapsed onto a sofa (carefully; he'd broken a cheap sofa by falling onto it only a few months ago), kicked off his shoes (again carefully), and dozed for a good twenty minutes.

Outside, something moved in the shadows...

Broseph walked in the door of his dorm, puts down his makeshift EMP and eats some ramen, once again being thankful for the massive stockpile he'd amassed while working on his dissertation. Of course, realizing again he might never finish his doctorate took away any brief joy. At least his two best friends were safe...somewhere. He puts aside the empty wrapper and went to sleep, but not before uttering a short prayer.

"Bros, bros, bros."

<Title> Day 100 - The Purge </Title>
<body>
Something is going on.

I got a message from MarBear that she's being evacuated - and she's not the only one. I spent the day looking out my window, and I've seen masses being transported off somewhere.

I have no idea who's left behind. Or if there's anyone left. I tried calling some of the guys from the guild, but I got no replies. I haven't had any luck reaching MarBear either - it appears she managed to write me seconds before contact was broken off.

I'm running out of beef jerky, so I'm going to have to start looking for supplies.
And I desperately need a coffee. I'll run off to Coffee of Doom and let myself in with the employee key. Good thing I had the night shift yesterday.

He clicks the submit button to post to his blog. Nothing happens. In fact, nothing seems to be working anymore. He checks his router, but the connection signal seems good. But his logs only show 444 - Service Unavailable.

He angrily tosses his earphones aside.

"Shit."

He heads out for Coffee of Doom.


OOC: The timestamp is 100 days after the takeover by Anthro-PCs, but if the GM disagrees, I can gladly change that.

100 days sounds fine for the amount of time between the beginning of the APC uprising and the evacuation of Northampton. (I hadn't actually thought that detail through...)

As Sven sees a tall sillhouette entering the CoD, he briefly contemplates whether he should do anything about it. Then he shuns himself: I better make sure the place doesn't get robbed. Dora would kill me...

Carefully positioning himself near the large windows, he peeks inside and recognizes Dale. Relieved, he opens the door and leans in the doorway nonchalantly.

"Hey Dale, what brings you here at the time of the night?"

Broseph, long abandoning hope of getting any meaningful sleep, tucked his EMP under his arm, and filled a duffel bag with ramen and slung it over his shoulder, before heading out the door to make the three hour walk from Amherst to Northampton. The past 100 days had been good for him, at least in terms of exercise. Not much else to do, and cardio was important to survive in any uprising, whether zombie or AI. This would not be the first time he made the journey, but as he knew, it could always be the last. Maybe there were some holdouts there, he thought. Maybe they weren't even evacuated. Only one way to find out. As he walked out into the cool October night, he realized it was Mischief Night, and wondered if the AI would step up their game tonight. He wondered if that were even possible, and then soon realized that like it or not, he'd probably find out soon.

Before he knew it, he was walking between abandoned cars and was on his way.

Sven blinks. "Dude, how long haven't you looked out of the window? Whole town is in shutdown. Everyone shipped off. Some seem to have... special permission to stay, others like me just got missed I guess". He dismissively blows against a strand of hair in front of his face. "By the way. Is this your fleshlight?", he asks, procuring the very same from his pocket.

While walking on route 9 through Hadley, Broseph thought he saw something out of the corner of his eye, but when he turned and looked, it was gone. It might have been...a bandicoot?

"Bros," he whispered. But no, the bros were gone. Hopefully evacuated, hopefully safe, but he couldn't worry right now. It'd been weeks since he saw them, and he couldn't help them now anyway, and they couldn't help him. He was on his own.

Pretty sure that's what he meant. Whose would it be, other than Yelling Bird's?



Also, I haven't gotten everyone's action PM's yet. Since there was some confusion about the start of the game, I'm leaving it in "Night" until Noon U.S. Central Time (18:00 UTC) Tuesday.

Mieville awoke on Dora's bed, wondering when his human would even be back. Things had been a lot more boring without the cold metal people around to play with. It had been too long since the last time he had a chance to torture Pintsize and the roomba hadn't been around to play for a while.

He had noticed the people missing, too. In much greater numbers. He wondered if that was some sort of sign. He wondered if perhaps they should be the ones he worried about more. After all, they were warm and squishy like him. And one of them was responsible for serving him his daily meals and supplying him with adequate playthings. Yes, he was certain it was them that he needed to pr--wait! What was that?!

"Mow?" Mieville said as he pawed at the moth that flew in front of his face. It dodged, continuing it's flight across the room. Determined not to be outsmarted by such an insignificant creature, Mieville gave chase. He scampered after it, sprang into the air, and swatted precisely where he knew the moth would be.

And got nothing but air.

He landed cleanly and turned back to his opponent. He used to be so good at this. The moth finally rested again on the windowsill. It wasn't like Dora to leave that open, but Mieville couldn't care less. Seeing his chance, he leapt once more and finally caught the tiny bastard! He landed on the grassy front lawn, suddenly aware that he was outside of his home and had no way in.

Well... only thing to do was to wander around and come back later. Maybe find a nice mouse or bird to bring back to show Dora...

The Doctor stumbles out from the lab he had set up in Northampton after hearing something was wrong with the AI he had nurtured.  Incensed that the AI had so cruelly turned against him but glad that he was able to get Hannelore to safety, he retreats back into his lab to listen to his music rectangle.

As Sven drank his coffee, he began to relax a bit and let down his guard. Having failed to find the owner of the fleshlight, he aimlessly tossed it aside. From behind him he heard a voice he didn't recognize say, "How dare you mistreat an AnthroPC like that!?" Those were the last words he ever heard. When the town awoke, they found Sven's body. Upon searching his apartment, they realized he was the town's detective!

It is now Day 1.

"Mrow?"

Mieville heard the sound of squawking... in what sounded to be human. This made absolutely no sense to him, but there you have it, a yelling bird. He thought about catching that to give to his human, but based on the creature's tone, it seemed like Mieville would be better off not putting that in his mouth.

And then the smells caught him. His human! And his human's kin... though something felt wrong. He approached the building, following discreetly behind a human as they walked through the door.

<Title> Day 101 - Trouble in Paradise City </Title>
<body>
I'm going to keep writing this blog in hopes that I'll be able to upload the posts once my internet works again. Things are going from bad to worse.

They found Sven's corpse today. He was killed, just like that. What's going on? Why was he killed? Who is the killer? There's all sorts of thoughts going through my head. It looks like he got snatched right after I left Coffee of Doom to go home - it scares me to think about it.

There's nobody else in this town, we've checked everywhere. Which is probably the most troubling fact of all: Sven's murderer must have been one of us! Seeing as all of us that remain are part of the resistance, to me the only logical conclusion is this: We've been blown. The anthro's are on to us, and they've infiltrated our ranks. The murderer is among us and we'll have to search him out.

And we'll probably have to kill him in chance he gets away and reports back to the hive mind.
I don't want to kill anybody.

I'm sorry about Sven. He was always such a good tipper. I hope Dora is dealing with this OK. Looks like Coffee of Doom is the only place left in town that's open for business, so I suppose that's where I'm going.

Dale walks over to CoD and notices the crowd inside. Joining him, he reveals
"You guys, this must have been one of us. We've been infiltrated. We need to find the killer."
Seeing the rock in front of the door, he picks it up and asks
"who's that from?"

Broseph is thinking that he picked a bad time to come back to Northampton, but then he realized that the resistance needed him, perhaps more than ever now. He couldn't believe Sven was dead. He reached over and closed Sven's eyes, uttering his usual prayer.

"Bros, bros, bros."

He said nothing else, as there was nothing else to say. He got up and looked at everyone around, not sure who to trust anymore.

The people surrounded the poor little kitty, as they decided he needed to be put to sleep. "Mow?", Mieville uttered as he slipped through the ring of people (and bird) and ran away from them. "GET THAT FUCKING PUSSY!" yelled the Bird as the group gave chase. They caught the cat and tore him limb from limb, before realizing that Mieville was just an ordinary, innocent kitty-cat, whose worst murder was of a squirrel, not a human.

Disgusted by what he had seen and done, what the resistance had allowed itself to become, Broseph shouted out in disgust.

"Bros!"

But that would not do. He summoned all the strength he had, once everyone was looking at him.

"Are we a mindless mob, or are we THE RESISTANCE?"

Nobody said anything. Nobody seemed to be sure either way. Broseph wasn't, either. Not anymore.

That night, someone stealthily approached Yelling Bird out of the shadows. Yelling Bird, however, was uncharacteristically silent. The killer, bent on sealing Yelling Bird's fate found that he was already too late. Yelling Bird had been stuffed into an empty liquor bottle, and the bottle was capped so tightly that no amount of fucking could free Yelling Bird.

In the morning, the survivors found the bottle that killed Yelling Bird, who, despite his eloquence, was merely an ordinary dickcissel.

It is now Day 2.

<Title> Day 102 - Inaction is killing us. </Title>
<body>
We found another dead this morning. I don't know how the others don't see it, but we're systematically being exterminated here. By someone in our own ranks.

And we're doing nothing against this! We're just idly watching when someone suggests killing an innocent cat, for Jephzibahs sake! Which makes me wonder how much I can trust that biker chick. She's the one who first suggested we take care of the cat. I say she's trying to get us to kill each other.

I guess that means we have to kill her (Vote for Vespavenger).

Post by: riccostar on 03 Feb 2014, 17:05
So it would seem as though we have two murderers, both of which went after the poor yelling bird in the same bloody night.  Interestingly, we only saw one death the first night, possibly telling us that one of the factions can only kill every other night.

As blind as we are as to who is killing us off, we still have the odds in our favour and the only way for it to stay that way is through taking action of our own.  I somewhat agree with the previous assessment of Vespavenger, however, it may be that she was just trying to make sure we were taking action. 

Nonetheless we need to be proactive.  I hesitantly vote to
lynch Vespavenger.

Broseph would never forgive himself if he was wrong, but staying silent was not an option. Natasha was quick to blame everyone for Mieville's death, conveniently downplaying her own part. It wasn't much, but he had to decide somehow.

As the remains of the Resistance took their final tally, they came to the result:

Natasha: 3
Dr. Ellicott-Chatham: 2
Vespavenger: 2

The crowd closed in on Natasha, despite her offensive odor, and, terrified, she begged for her life. "Dudes, I'm totally innocent!" she argued. "Go after the chick with the bike instead, not me!" Ignoring her pleas, the crowd disemboweled Natasha with her own guitar. Upon inspection of her apartment, they discovered that she was completely innocent.

It is now Night 2.

Broseph looked at the bloody guitar in his hand, considering what he'd just done. He put it down and walked away, knowing he would have to pay for his mistake. He no longer cared if he lived through the night.

Haven't received all the role PMs, but I'm going to try to keep the game moving here (it's almost over anyway...)

Vespabot rolled into Northampton overnight, called into town by her robot commanders. They hadn't bothered to inform her what her mission was. As she motored along U.S. Highway 5, she saw something along the road. A bicycle was laying along the road and next to it was the body of her old owner, Vespavenger! Someone had murdered her with a knife! Horrified by the scene, Vespabot fled town. How could someone have done something so horrible to an innocent human!?

Broseph was worn out, and his last guess was wrong which caused him to be directly responsible for an innocent woman's death (with her own guitar, no less). That made him no longer care if he lived or died, but it also made him realize that they had nothing but luck to go on. Fuck it, might as well hope the luck's better this time.

Hurt that his life of science had been used in such a way and confused by the accusation as he had been a defender of the late Vespavenger, the doc sadly raises his finger in the other direction.

Title: Re: Mafia Game Thread: Now Ends the Age of Man
Post by: cesium133 on 07 Feb 2014, 20:20
As the sun set on the survivors of Northampton, the vote was clear: Broseph McBrosephson, aka Chunky Bro, would be the next to die. Broseph tried to rally the Resistance against its real enemy, Dr. Ellicott-Chatham, but it was too little, too late. "I thought we were Bros, but I guess not," said Broseph, disappointedly.

Broseph had an unusual request for his executioners: if he must be killed, he wanted it to be by his own hand. "Very well," said Dr. Ellicott-Chatham, "to optimize your Fourier-Goldman Happiness factor, we will allow you to perform your own execution."

"Wait, wouldn't the way to optimize my happiness be to NOT kill me?" responded Broseph.

"Yes, but that wouldn't optimize MY happiness factor," said the Doctor.

The method the Doctor had organized for the execution was simple (relatively speaking). He had a button which when pressed would send a signal to Station to fire its laser at Broseph. He gave the button to Broseph, so that he could decide the moment of his own death. Broseph pondered for a moment and said his final words, "I'll see you Bros in Hell!" He pushed the button and a laser shot down from the sky, instantly vaporizing him.

"Well, now that we've got Chunky Bro out of the way, we're in the majority!" exclaimed Dr. Ellicott-Chatham. "Let's finish this thing!"

"It's been convenient for us how quiet you've been, Dora. The Resistance might have appreciated your skills as a protector," said Wil, as he pulled out a concealed liquor bottle and used it to murder Dora.

"I'll get you bastards! I didn't go berserk for nothing!" screamed Elliott as he charged toward Dale, slashing Dale's throat with his knife. Dr. Ellicott-Chatham picked up the button and pressed it, obliterating the vigilante Elliott, finally extinguishing the Resistance.

Infiltrators Win!

There wasn't any spite involved... Admittedly, the scenario I intended to create in the final story favors the Resistance, since I felt kind of bad for them for how poorly the game went for them. But the story basically follows what would have happened had the game not ended at that point, with the Infiltrators having the majority. The only part where I tilt it in favor of the Resistance is the assumption that the next night kill was Dora rather than Elliot.
Title: Re: Mafia Game Thread: Now Ends the Age of Man
Post by: Masterpiece on 16 Feb 2014, 11:34
Ha, just wanted to say before I forgot,

We killed Loki and Gareth first because we I thought it would be an easier game for us infiltrators that way. Was thinking of taking out Game and Watch as well (because I feared his excellent DM skillz would translate into excellent player skillz), but de la nae did that for us.

I was going to use the mistrust that de la nae gained through killing GaW to get her excecuted, but instead our head infiltrator, riccostar was starting to earn votes. We quickly turned that vote around to get Natasha killed and Method and Vespavenger blamed for it.

When we killed Vespavenger in the last night during the last day, nobody was active except us Infiltrators, which meant we could turn the vote to take care of the last threat, Method. I'm fairly sure the game wouldn't have turned in our favor if everyone played, but I was still very glad that our strategy worked out very well. (and I'm also glad riccostar didn't get killed on the second day, that would have seriously impacted our game)


Anyway, who's up for the next one?

GMing is one of those things you can really only learn by doing, and mafia has really basic rules (with a lot of room for adaptation in rules and/or flavor, if you wish).  Your word is final, though!  I think you should give it a shot, if you want to :).  I don't think anyone here would give you shit about a few slip-ups - if they do, they've never GMd anything before, because that's just part of the process.

Just to counteract all this niceness,
IF YOU GM BADLY WE WILL BURN YOU WITH FIRE

And that's just if it's "bad." Imagine if it makes it to "awful" or "THE WORST" status...

(yeah i'm full of it go for it)

...oh. Heh...

In all seriousness, people will have fun as long as you don't abandon the game and any sort of attempt at making it more interesting will be appreciated. Looking forward to playing and maybe not dying.

Ok, love your encouragement. I have some ideas and I think I'll see them through.

But it'll be some time until I'll have free time to do it, so don't expect me to immediately start sign-ups.

Is anyone running the next one yet?  Because I've been itching to do a Transmetropolitan (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmetropolitan) themed game pretty much since I started playing here... I don't want to step on any toes, so if someone else has something in the works, yay!  But if not, give me like, two days, and I can have a sign-up thread going, if anyone's interested.

Henri! You are back!
I believe Method of Madness has been preparing one for.. quite a while...

Well, if he doesn't Method of Make that Madness Happen soon...  :wink:

(also, omg someone remembers me, that is ridiculous and very nice.  I didn't think anyone would notice, really).

Like I said, I don't want to step on toes! But I know it takes awhile to get a game together (and I've been hesitant to post after my d&d fail), but I'm pretty sure I could run a mafia game (which is a lot simpler) if there are still people who want to play!  :-)

I've been wondering where you were. I'm in for another game.

Wait, what? I was next? I was wondering why a new game hadn't started. My bad, I'll do the one after hb's.

I have no idea. I thought you were. But if you are now convinced you should do one, I won't stop you :D

I dunno, I always planned on doing one but I never thought of an idea, so I figure I'll do one eventually. Hopefully the one after hb's but who knows.

You know... I was just thinking the other day, "I haven't voted to lynch anyone in a while... :evil:"

Looking forward to it, henri!
