[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i had to go back and edit a post to calrify that Leyrann's father is, in fact, older than me. because that matters to anybody else. but he is. just a little.

 

i don't understand about your pinkie, ed. will you explain, or will i remain ignorant? or both. most likely both.

[ed2funy]

But alas, fair maiden, you shan't know the deep and dark twisting of my mind.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

are you practicing for elizabethan mafia?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i don't understand mafia at all, but i think i'd enjoy a little house on the prairie game.

Ah, just start with a Basic game. They're easy. ^.^

 

Also, wha?

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

they are incomprehensible to me. it appears that they are based on a knowldge of social variables and simple mathematics. both well outside of my wheelhouse.

 

wha wha?

Edited August 7, 2011 by cindy

[ed2funy]

Nah, not mathematics...well, only the basic of maths. People try to add more.

 

And it does have some socializing. Though, I think you could effectively fool anyone if you were mafia.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i am not good at fooling on purpose. i am an accidental fool.

 

and it's the basic math that loses me.

 

i have read the threads. they make no sense. it's like when people have tried to teach me chess, or bridge. they think i should be able to understand these things, but i can't buy a clue.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

but perhaps you could explain it simply? what do you try to fool people about? talk to me like i'm an idiot, because, well. i am.

[Niniel]

Cindy, Cindy! I have big hopes for you when it comes to mafia. Look at me, I have played for some month now and I still don´t get more than the basics. You would totally win over me any time.

[ed2funy]

lol.

 

Hmm, lemme see if I can write up the basics. Let's use a 12 player game.

 

There are 9 town and 3 mafia.

The mafia try to kill the town by tricking them during the Day to vote each other.

The town try to see who is lying to them and leading around.

 

 

That is mafia in a nutshell.

 

 

Then you have the mafia killing at night. And the Doctor trying to figure out who they will target so he can protect them.

And a Cop tries to search for the mafia each night.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i don't know about that. i am really very very bad with games. and i have read this game a lot, and it is not getting through my skull. as an only child growing up i mostly played solitaire, rummy with my grandma, and monopoly by myself. i am ok with sims, because there are no rules, except, try not to kill all your sims, which i do occasioanlly do.

 

maybe you can explain mafia in very simple words of one syllable with no math from start to finish> because what i've read so far has made me go wha? alot.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

lol.

i could teach you the torah standing on one foot and it would make a lot more sense to you than that made to me.

 

so someone tells you if you are in the town or in the mafia. and you chat during the day and say things about each other. and at some point you all say i vote to kill this person or that person. and i base this decision on my deep understanding of human nature. . .

 

the doctor and the cop i do not understand, nor do i understand how anyone can protect someone, or kill someone except with the voting. which i don't quite understand.

 

i am not trying to be stupid here. i just am.

[ed2funy]

You have the Day time, voting stuff down perfectly! lol. People just decide who to lynch (kill) with their votes.

Once they set number of votes are reached....dead. :/

 

A few people in a normal game will have special roles...or abilities. The mafia can kill at night, and to counteract that, a "Doctor" will send in a name to the game moderator of who they want to protect.

 

Think of it as the Doctor putting up some bulletproof glass around someone, and the mafia has a sniper. They can't see the glass, so it might not work.

 

 

gah, I'm about to go to bed, sorry I couldn't explain better.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

well goodnight. it's not you, it's me.

 

so the mafia kills without voting? they all decide together, the mafia, secretly, or they just individually PM th emod, who says you were killed by mafia in the night?

 

oysh. maybe this would be easier if i had never known any organized criminals. . . it's ok, they're all in jail now, and i always went to the kitchen when they talked business. but i am pretty sure this is not how they worked. tony wanted to slap someone, he slapped them, and they stayed slapped. tony pissed off a bigger boss, and tony went bye bye.

 

it's a different world now. and mafia's a game, that you don't really get slapped for playing.

 

strange days indeed.

[raitora]

Oh my god the combination of Leyrann and cindy made my head explode

 

 

. . i've always spoken very highly of you. . .

Aww don't feel bad! I only meant it in a good way...

[raitora]

I think, in odd way...Torenko wants you to have a banana.

Bananas are delicious. But also expensive where I am right now. The floods in Queensland wrecked fruit prices here.

 

Also strangely relevant to your sig.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

i'm sure your head exploded in the nicest way possible

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

prices are wacked out here, too. oddly, i spend less money at the market when prices are high. i think cause i can't make myself spend three times as much for something as i did a few months ago. i guess most of what i was buying was crap i didn't need.

 

yeah, i'm sure that's what he meant with the banana comment. he's just all hopped up for planet of the apes.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

so i'm thinking veggie stew tonight - curry-winter squash based, or chili-tomato based? or something entirely different?

 

(there are no bananas for it)

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

great. i exploded his head again.

 

if i kill this thread, i will be very impressed.

[raitora]

Chilli tomato sounds delicious! I wish I could have some.

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

oh, excellent, thank you.

 

i was starting to think cheese-beer-potato chowder based, but that would have gotten me into the bacon, and what's the point of that?

 

chili-tomato it is.

Hungry now.. T_T

[Mrs. Cindy Gill]

you can make vegetable soup from any little bits you have in the fridge and pantry.

 

or you could go to a drive through.

 

or perhaps a quick sammich?
