"Oh God...there's more than one of you! There's at least two robots!"

(Change vote to Dr. Ellicott-Chatham , let the fates decide!)

[cesium133]

Current count:

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

Anyone want to be the tiebreaker? (Day will end at ~10 PM U.S. Central Time)

[Lines]

Vespavenger, really? You accuse me for accusing the same person as you and then you go back to your original suspect? Make up your mind!

[Method of Madness]

(The recent OoC posts were split off temporarily to preserve the flow of the game, they'll be moved back when the game is over)

[de_la_Nae]

She takes a discarded latte off of a table and guzzles it down. She crumples the disposable cup and tosses it aside as she crunches across broken glass to a chair. "I haven't trusted anyone since 1997, what makes you think I trust any of you?"

[Lines]

Well, I certainly don't trust you.

[Method of Madness]

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.

"Bros...I think Natasha did it."

[Method of Madness]

(OoC: Sorry, lost track of time, but there it is)

[cesium133]

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.

[Method of Madness]

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.

[cesium133]

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!?

It is now Day 3.

[Masterpiece]

Remaining players:

Schmee001 - Elliot
Masterpiece - Dale
ChaoSera - Wil
Method of Madness - Chunky Bro
riccostar - Dr. Ellicott-Chatham
dr. nervioso - Dora

[Method of Madness]

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.

"Sorry, Doc, but it has to be someone. Might as well be the one who brought the AIs to us in the first place."

[riccostar]

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.

"I'm sorry too bro, but I believe that you're ultimately behind the deaths of Vespavenger and Natasha."

[Masterpiece]

I must say I agree with the doctor.

Lynch Broseph.

[Method of Madness]

"That's fair. I wish it didn't have to come to this, where we killed each other off, but allow me this one request. If I am the one who must die today, let me do it myself. I don't want anyone else to have more blood on their hands."

[cesium133]

The day will end at ~10 PM U.S. Central Time tonight.

Current vote:
Broseph McBrosephson: 2
Dr. Ellicott-Chatham: 1

[cesium133]

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!

[Method of Madness]

So...was Dale an infiltrator? Also, I really like how that ended, even though I lost.

[cesium133]

Dale, Wil, and the Doctor were the infiltrators. Elliot was the vigilante, and Dora was the protector.

[Masterpiece]

What. I died?

[Method of Madness]

Yep!

[Schmee]

What. I died?

You're welcome.

[Loki]

For full disclosure, I had investigated Elliot on my first (and only) night.

[ChaoSera]

Yay, we won. First win in an online mafia game for me.

[Schmee]

I KILLED SO MANY INNOCENTS.

[riccostar]

Woo! Good game!

[Game and Watch Forever]

I was totally going to vote either Wil or Dora day 1, but never ended up getting around to it. It probably would have been Dora, thus attempting to continuing the tradition of killing the town doctor on Day 1.

Good game folks!

[Masterpiece]

Man you make it to the last round just to end up dead anyway. Grrrrr

[Method of Madness]

I really like how my character went out. Thanks for honoring the request, Cesium.

[cesium133]

Man you make it to the last round just to end up dead anyway. Grrrrr

Sorry 'bout that. Figured I had to let the Resistance get at least one of you. 

[Masterpiece]

But Dora didn't even issue an order!

[cesium133]

Yeah, Dora sorta went missing after the first day.

[Masterpiece]

Then you just killed me out of spite?

[cesium133]

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.

[Masterpiece]

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?

[Thrillho]

How did killing me make for an easier game out of interest?

I'm up for another one.

[Masterpiece]

I was afraid of your skillz I was afraid you and Loki could see through my deception.

I'm also afraid of Linds because I couldn't see through her deception in the last Mafia game, but since I knew she wasn't an infiltrator, I wasn't this time.

[cesium133]

I'd be up for another game, as long as someone else DMs it.

[Masterpiece]

If nobody's up for it, I'd like to try. But I'm not so confident about DM-ing.

[Loki]

How did killing me make for an easier game out of interest?

I'm up for another one.

I was afraid of your skillz I was afraid you and Loki could see through my deception.

Hey Gazbro, "we are so feared they kill us first"-highfive!

I am possibly up for another one.

Masterpiece, you are a writer. What could possibly go wrong?
And thank you for the explanation what happened - I love to hear those.

[cesium133]

I think most of the night actions have been mentioned already, but here they are in case anyone's interested:

Night 0:
Loki (Investigator): Investigate Schmee001
dr. nervioso (Protector): no action
Schmee001 (Vigilante): no action
Infiltrators: Kill Loki

Night 1:
dr. nervioso: no action
Schmee001: Kill Gareth
Infiltrators: Kill Gareth

Night 2:
dr. nervioso: no action
Schmee001: Kill de_la_Nae
Infiltrators: Kill de_la_Nae

[Masterpiece]

Ha, Schmee001 did all our work for us!
(still sorta irked that I got killed, just CAUSE  )

[Thrillho]

I feel like YB attracts suspicion just by being YB.

If I had been like, bad at being YB, I would've been less suspicion.

Also Loki, you and I are menaces to society and we know it.

Now let's go skipping through the rose fields.

[Loki]

For reference, the main reason I investigated Schmee001 was that he was the first to post (so basically, no reason at all.) I had to start somewhere.

[cesium133]

Ha, Schmee001 did all our work for us!
(still sorta irked that I got killed, just CAUSE  )

Let's just say you survived your injury. Dr. Ellicott-Chatham has medical training, right? 

[Lines]

I'm also afraid of Linds because I couldn't see through her deception in the last Mafia game, but since I knew she wasn't an infiltrator, I wasn't this time.

Man, I have so much fun being the bad guy... SO. MUCH. FUN. But this time around, I honestly did not know what to do with Natasha on top of being without a role. So you were pretty much right not to fear me this time. 

Also don't be afraid of DMing, it can be fun!

[henri bemis]

If nobody's up for it, I'd like to try. But I'm not so confident about DM-ing.

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.

[de_la_Nae]

Just to counteract all this niceness,

IF YOU GM BADLY WE WILL BURN YOU WITH FIRE

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

[Method of Madness]

I might finally take my turn after Masterpiece.
