Mafia 1988: MGSF Legends

[bigboss88]

Max Payne: I’d like to buy Strangelove for 750$.

10 players voted. 1 remaining. Gonna call it a day.

The votes were in. After hours of accusations, suspicion, and increasingly questionable arguments, the members and moderators had finally reached a decision.

Aragorn, the mysterious man from the forest, stood alone as the crowd turned against him. His caravan days were over. His excuses had run out. Even his closest allies had apparently decided that he was more useful dead than alive.

The verdict was unanimous enough. Aragorn was to be lynched.

As the rope tightened, he had one final opportunity to reveal the truth. But it was too late.

The body was searched. His identity was uncovered.

ARAGORN WAS Starschwar.

The General. The green trench coat. The beret. The man who was supposed to be leading the Members to victory.

He was a MEMBER OF THE TOWN.

Aragorn = Starschwar (member)

NIGHT 1 BEGINS!

[Aragorn]

Absolute mongrels.

[starschwar]

[Annoying Prick]

[Roy]

Null sends their regards

[Roger]

Hey guys, I am very sorry. My pc got infected with a virus and I spent the last few days changing passwords and updating security on some accounts. Recently reinstalled my OS. I should now be able to properly play the game. Sorry again, I didn't have any alternatives to getting on here.

Day 2

NIGHT 2 — THE GREAT FORUM PURGE

The Mods had a problem. Someone had been impersonating Black King, and after a brief investigation (which probably involved absolutely no investigation), they decided it was time to kick him out of the forums.

The impostor was exposed. BLACK KING WAS ACTUALLY ROY!

A Member of the Town had been walking around pretending to be one of the old moderators. Unfortunately, his little cosplay session had come to an abrupt end. Before getting kicked, however, Roy managed to send one final secret message to someone. Its contents remain unknown.

Meanwhile, Roger was busy watching people, because apparently minding his own business was never an option.

Annoying Prick spent most of the night playing with his fingers around the sabotage button. He hovered over it, tempted by chaos, but ultimately decided against pressing it. A rare moment of self-control.

But the busiest man of the night was Weavo.

He had a full repair job on his hands. He fixed everything wrong with Aragorn. His injuries, his problems, his internal systems, and even his brain. Frankly, the last part was probably beyond repair, but Weavo gave it a shot.

And somehow, it worked.

ARAGORN WAS BACK! @Aragorn

The forum was left in complete disbelief. A man who had been lynched just yesterday was suddenly walking around again. Either Weavo had performed a miracle, or the forum’s death policy was even more broken than its moderation system.

Black king = Roy





DAY 2 BEGINS

[Aragorn]

Venom ''Punished'' Aragorn is back BABBYYYYYY

[starschwar]

@Roger - best of luck with your computer predicament, that's never fun.

I'm not surprised that Aragorn came back. Even if he must serve as my body double, there are benefits to the arrangement. The Emergency Jackout Procedure greatly improves operative longevity - but there are always loopholes. Just ask... well, that's a story for another time.

Anyone have leads?

[Dirty Duck]

BK contacted me last night-if anyone would like to counter claim that go ahead, but obviously being contacted doesn't prove allegiance either way as BK had no way of knowing on Day 1.

I was worried I'd die in the night so I wrote this out for BK to share if I did:
"If you're reading this, it means I'm dead. But it also means that the messenger passing this on came in clutch by contacting me. Here's how I think town should proceed:

Whoever is THE REPAIRMAN is going to revive Aragorn if you haven't already. You’re going to do this as soon as humanly possible while there are enough of us left that the odds of the mafia killing you are still low. Do not discuss doing this publicly, confirmed townies are higher priority to kill even if your ability is spent.

Then from that point on, whoever is THE CHEF is going to protect Aragorn every night. This means that Aragorn isn’t going to just instantly be killed by the mafia, as them attempting to target him while The Chef lives will result in a wasted night kill.

THE OBSERVER should consider watching Aragorn tonight, as that will reveal to them the identity of The Repairman (if they haven't revived Aragorn yet) and The Chef. Do not publicly confirm them as townies unless they’re going to be lynched as that puts you and them at risk, but you knowing they’re town is a big advantage. If you see more than two individuals visiting Aragorn, it’s probably a Mafia attempt to cause confusion and stop townie confirms, but…

MAFIA would be stupid to do that this early in the game as it would give The Observer a shortlist of names where 1 is definitely Mafia.

We shouldn’t focus too heavily on everyone’s Day One Lynch votes, but if THE GENERAL @Aragorn can use his ability the night he is revived, he should start with the players who didn’t vote for him. I’m sure some Mafia did jump on his Lynch train (I still suspect Tibbs, but that’s just a Day One hunch) but a good Mafia team tries to avoid all voting unanimously. I'm dead so I shouldn't be too high on the suspect list, so Gorn, my suggestion is to decide who you think is most suspect out of Annoying Prick, Agent, and bk (unless bk is the one posting this message lol) and work your way down the list. Unless the Mafia team have all piled in on you like noobs, one of them should be Mafia.

Obviously Roger is still a suspect, but I implore the mafia players to kill him if he doesn’t show up by today. Agent is right that we need to cull inactives ASAP in these games instead of leaving them alive out of convenience.

Day 1's voting:
Aragorn: Null, Mr. Tibbs, weavo, starschwar, Roy
Null: Aragorn
Mr. Tibbs: Dirty Duck, Annoying Prick
Roger: Agent, black king

Avenge me, my children."

Obviously I'm still alive so I'm not so low on the suspect list now, but I hope this plan means I'm somewhat trusted for now. BK is dead (RIP) meaning that @Aragorn should investigate Annoying Prick, or Agent, or Roger tonight. I do think Agent would genuinely go for lynching inactives, and I'm going to give Roger the benefit of the doubt for now, so my guess is that Annoying Prick is the most likely to be mafia of the 5 that didn't vote for Aragorn.

Since I'm still alive and have voting power I'm going to Lynch Annoying Prick unless anyone has anything else to go on, but that would only really happen if the observer visited BK last night.
