[DPR MAFIA] The Cannibal Wars - Talya, MN & Verbal win!

[Kivam]

I knew Verbal was on another team.  MN made it obvious.  No clue about Talya.  I guess Nae took Pac?

[The Crusher]

So question?  Was Crush or I nked or was I blue voted off killing him too because he's a dork and the sibling role was still in effect?  I never got any notice that it was lifted so I assumed I was still sibling linked to him.

 

I ask because there weren't enough Blue votes for a lynch.  8 alive would have needed 5 votes not 4.

 

 

Dork?  Sis? Name calling?  Finally... I was really starting to miss the JN games.  Thank you.  

 

I did ask DPR and he told me we where no longer tied.  So I had Lia kill you, sorry.

 

I thought Verbal was the other leader.

[Naeann]

I feel the love bro. :P  Explain your death then? I kinda think we should have been informed that link was gone.  I had no reason to suspect otherwise.  And given that everyone on either of our teams knew of the link we also should have been informed of who the third leader was.  It's only fair because that info gave Talya an extremely unfair advantage.

 

When was Talya made zl?  And why the hell did you pick one of my teammates to be the third instead of one of the humans? 

[DPR]

 

Talya was made third ZCL on the mission - it was a chance gained role. As soon as she became a ZCL, she was under her own control.

 

Talya vig killed Crusher. Lia killed Nae (...the siblings were no longer tied together because he was already dead. ;) Actions were taken first come...)

 

Verb got recruited to Talya. Pac was recruited back to Crusher, and LZM was recruited to Nae, but Naw was dead and LZM had no master to follow. MN, Lia, and Pac still had NK's, but Talya was the last Zombie Cult Leader with the power to recruit.  

[Naeann]

Did Mn and Lia go on missions?  How did they get nks?  The mason one was in MY pm and you told me it died with the last mason becoming a zombie. Again, us not knowing who the third zombie leader was when she knew who crusher and I were was an unfair advantage. :P  Its why you linked Crusher and I.. otherwise I'd have been able to unfairly take him out when I came back to the game.. knowing who he was.

[Toy and Minion]

I just gotta say, that Cult Leader might be dead thing I pulled...I would have done it regardless of my alignment.  I didn't see what the problem with it really was.  Just threw out a possibility.  Like the possibility that the game would end with everyone as Zombies. :P

[Naeann]

Lol Dsage.  Sorry bout that.  I looked at it from what my pm said.  I was the only one on my original team to get the pm.  I had to inform the rest of them.  You were one of the first ones to post to the game.  That meant you got a DPR pm.  I figured you were either the zombie leader or mafia.

[mmeeshal]

I think the first time I ever got truly upset in a mafia game was the Day I got lynched.

 

EVERYTHING went wrong for me. EV-ER-EE-THING.  My two would-be neighbors died before I could get in contact with them.  People decided to lynch me, despite the fact that I was telling the truth about my role (yeah, who believed me? Please be honest. :P).

 

I wanted to scream at the game, and at DPR. :P  Especially when he didn't even say I had a Neighbor role in my death scene. *pouts*  BUT, it's in the first post.  It is.

 

 

Okay, rant over.

 

All I can really say about this game now....  Um, I'm still really confused. :P

[Toy and Minion]

Lol Dsage.  Sorry bout that.  I looked at it from what my pm said.  I was the only one on my original team to get the pm.  I had to inform the rest of them.  You were one of the first ones to post to the game.  That meant you got a DPR pm.  I figured you were either the zombie leader or mafia.

 

Yeah, well, I didn't even think about that at all.  I could have been that I was just a vanilla townie.  :P

[Barmacral]

That game got really weird at the end. I'm glad that I got killed when I did. My mind was boggled about what was going on until Kivam told me what was up.

[LedZepMan]

Hell, I didn't even know half of what was going on even after I got recruited..........

 

Good lord

[Toy and Minion]

Alright, so, any of you who want to play another game (not nearly as complicated as this one. :P) and haven't signed up for my game: Sign Up Now!

 

2 slots open.  Themed.  Read the rules and make sure you understand before you sign up.

[cosmicpanda]

Wes, was there a bit of bastard moddery at the start? You made us a group of daytalking masons with a vig kill, which is effectively mafia. And it seems that everyone else was mafia...

[Toy and Minion]

And the mafia didn't have a kill.

[mmeeshal]

When I asked DPR (after my death), he said ONE of the Mafia groups had a kill.

[Naeann]

Yup, Loki's team.  Was how I (didn't) die.

[Talya]

Nae, I think you played a good game. I was surprised to get the role at the last. I was thinking of recruiting you but I wasn't sure if I could. I knew verb had the executioner role so I though I would include him. But I went for Crusher as I did know he was a cult leader. I wasn't sure if it would kill you or not, but I knew if I couldn't recruit you I would have to kill you at some point.

 

I think there was no way that the masons nor the mafia were going to win, it was just a matter of which zombie team, lol.

 

So I'm sorry Nae, alls fair in love and mafia  :-*

[DPR]

No bastard moddery - the basic setup was a reverse of the norm, so the inncents were just the mafia by another name.

 

However, the second mafia team that also got a NK was one ofhte first "adjustments" that had to be made. Dae was a team captain and he flaked - I don't know why. He told me that his team had all been PM'd and none of them had. So, Arsis got really frustrated and vented on another board (he got mod-killed because he suggested that some players communicate outside of the rules). So, he was dead and Dae disappeared. Pac and Loki didn't even know they had a team. So, I gave them a NK to even the odds.

 

When a team had a NK, as they were recruited, they each carried the ability to their cult. This was designed to accelerate the killing toward the end of the game.

 

And, as far as they setup goes, it was waaaayyyy complicated. I had a contingecy for just about everything including a 'doomsday' plan where I could just collapse the game into a standard format (it would take to long to explain...meh) to keep the action up.

 

And then things got a little out of control - the day that I logged on and there were over 30 new pages between the two games almost did me in. Sheesh...then I botched up Nae's role and had to fix that, then evacuate my house - which wreaks havoc on a complicated game with a lot of notes!. And now, work has been crazy for over a week, out of nowhere. The mafia gods are not pleased with that...

 

Would I do it again? It would have to be more organized and have at least one more mod to keep things under control. And some of the rules would have to be tweaked here and there. The question is, was it fun to play or did it just get bogged down and tedious toward the end? Did it jump the shark when I put Nae back in? Is it a formulae that would be more or less fun the second time around?

[Talya]

I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was unfortunate that things didn't seem to go as planned, but it didn't detract from the game. I was totally confused most of the time, paranoid the rest, especially with my mafia team and a little with the zombie team. But I think that was part of the game and the way you set it up, lol.

 

I have to say thank you to you Wes, because that must have been a nightmare to Mod. I'm not sure I could have done it. and to have everything worked out to a tee was genious. Thank you so much for modding an intriguing, fustrating, paranoia inducing and fantastic game  :D

[Verbal32]

I knew verb had the executioner role so I though I would include him.

 

Thanks Talya!  :-*

 

 

 

Wow.  That was crazy.  I was trying to play the odds on both Crusher and Nae's team.  Once I was healed, I was a symp for Crusher - that why I made a post talking about some note passed to me by DPR.  I was referencing a post I had made on Crusher's QT thread....I thought I'd take some questioning on that...nobody said a word.  But Crusher's team noticed and figured out I was the symp.  Too bad Nae recruited me right after, lol.

 

Btw, I'm the one who pardoned Pac with my Governor role.  I was on Crusher's team at the time.

 

So I was able to follow both QTs, but I was aligned with Nae.  So I gave her all the info I could.  Then I picked up the Executioner role at the same time that Talya apparently grabbed the CL role.  She must have recruited me right at endgame....lucky me, heh.

 

 

DPR - awesome game...I loved it.  I think if you had a 2nd mod, that would definitely make it easier on you.  The 2 mods could have their own QT thread and coordinate nicely.

 

 

[Hybrid]

It was an awesome game.  My only regret is that with my role in the MJ game and the craziness there, I wasn't able to really engage in this game until after almost my entire team was dead.  Then I spent the rest of the game just hoping to float by under the radar... we had no NK and no numbers.

[DPR]

 

So, I've got 284 pages of actual game play to go back through and compare notes to. I'll announce the Cannibal Cup winner on Monday, October 5th, by 9 pm. Miami time. heh

 

Until then, if you have a post you would like ot nominate for points, please post a link to it on this thread.

 

Adios Mio...

[Verbal32]

Well, you didn't say we couldn't nominate ourselves, so I'm putting this up:

 

 

and then wait for the mission to end so we can hear from verbal.

 

I did some checking with DPR, and he said that I can't specifically start a lynch on a cult member.  I can certainly vote on their lynches, but he worded it like some aftereffect wouldn't let me start one for a few days.  I'm guessing that I will be able to at some point - dunno.  I'll keep checking with him.

 

He also left some cryptic message for me - he said that step #3 in 228 for the picnic is unecessary.  I have no clue what that means, and I wonder if somebody got a neighbor role and was sending me a message or something?

 

Does that mean anything to anyone?  :-\

 

 

The bolded part was a direct message to Crusher's cult, as on post #228 in their "Family Picnic" QuickTopic, I had made a post with a plan in case I was cured by the WD.  Step #3 was to re-recruit me, but once informed that I was Crusher's symp, I knew that wasn't necessary and I didn't want Crusher to waste a recruitment.

 

They noticed it pretty quickly, as they began chatting again on that QT (I assume they changed due to me being able to spy) and identified that they knew I was their symp.

 

I really thought I'd take some heat for that post, or at least some questions, and I didn't.  Woot.

[ctm123456]

Good game..

 

I really enjoyed the ahh haa moment when I realized almost everyone was scum. Being scum myself, I couldn't understand why nobody was voting and everyone was acting scummy until that light bulb went on. :D

 

The nae thing was a shame and overall, given how active the two games were, how short the deadlines were and how complicated the game was, it seemed like the mod was under water most of the time. I'd echo the thought of others that co-mods would've kept the game churning better..

 

Great stuff either way, congrats to the winners!

 

[a pale tanned lover]

Complete madness!

 

Great fun though!
