DPR Mafia - The Dark Monocle - Game Thread

John McClane · March 20, 2012

Any player worth his salt would have known not to direct quote the QT threads. In NO game I've ever played has it been allowed, and what is the point of having private guild threads if you can just copy/paste whole convos? Also defeats the purpose of Meesh's ability to see all QTs.

Sakea is scum too, btw. Feel pretty good about that read. I've been right about her in the past

I've been saying kill Crusher all game. Kill the fat pig.

I'd like to kill Christine and Crusher first though.

Alright NOTBOB - you need to prove you weren't converted, I can prove it tonight by jailing someone, you can prove it now by shooting someone. Only Meesh and Wombat, or either of us could have told scum that Song was our Cop.

NotBob can vet himself, I can in night phase, if we both vet ourselves - then it leaves you and Wombat to give Song to scum. If you didn't do it, then you should be voting Wombat. Unless you converted him.

I know I don't have a 100% sure thing on you wombat, BUT with the pieces I do have, you are the most well informed lynch I can advise to the town right now.

We are waiting on you not bob, you've stalled long enough. Prove you are still our Vig, shoot Ishmael, or wombat

Sakaea is dead and she was town. This is clearly an attempt to deflect attention from himself.

Verbal32 · March 20, 2012

Bob is obviously scum.

I jail Verbal, and no conversions happen. He's converter, and it vets my role.

We lynch Verbal tomorrow. Follow it with JLM.

Huzzah!!!

This is complete crap logic. Scum has a good lead, they holster the conversion, it damns me, and they skate another full cycle closer to endgame. The only possible way you can't see this is if you're scum. You should know better.

All right guys, going for it. If Verbal's still alive in the morning we have to lynch him.

See above. How is it that I should be lynched if I'm alive? You're alive, and you say you can't be killed either - cool. So why does that mean I need to be lynched?

If I'm alive in the morning, I'll full reveal, and then you folks can decide. But listen before you shoot from the hip, like you've been doing all game. And by "you", I mean the town.

This logic is ridiculous.

Scum doesn't need to holster their conversion to set up your lynch. What an absurd argument. 11 left right? If the numbers are 7-4 town (based on 2 original and 2 alive converts), and with 2 potential NKs and a conversion. Let's assume both NKs kill town. Then its 5-4. Conversion makes it 4-5.

Scum will NOT holster their conversion. They will be blocked, and Verb is pre-empting a reason why a conversion might not happen if they are blocked. Stupid. Transparent.

Pathetic.

I posted that the day I got back from the convention, before I re-read anything. I was just agreeing with Wombat.

The fact that your scum team has no argument against my case other than to resort to quoting the QTs and bending the meaning and context of when things were said, says it all.

JenLenaMom · March 20, 2012

I don't see where he said he was quoting from the QT, guess I read it wrong but I meant that at notbob not you.

I wouldn't make sweeping statements like that when you don't have all the info.

Would you like a tidbit of info that I happen to know from my role? I'll toss this out in case I'm dead in the morning: automatons don't win with original scum.

Chew on that for a bit. Full reveal coming in the morning, assuming you don't let the coroner report do it for me. If I'm alive, my reveal will be good news. If I'm dead......14.

DPR · March 20, 2012

They could have never known what their action would result in, but when the Automatons set their sights on the last living member of the Machinists Guild, they doomed the town to further misery.

Locked inside the Guild House, Tina dutifully began to adjust the cogs and tune the sprockets that kept the mechanical sun and moon moving in precise time. She quickly lost herself in her work, hoping to be able to complete what was once the task of many hands. And because she was absorbed, she did not consider the possibility that someone might have snuck into the house while she had been out during the day.

A figure rose from behind a large set of gears, moving slowly so as not to attract attention. Silent steps were taken, always careful to stay at Tina's back, and when the Automaton was within whispering distance, it reached out with its mechanical hands. Fingers wrapped around the tender flesh of Tina's neck, strong enough to quiet any scream that might have been. Already exhausted from working, her struggle was short.

TINA, TOWN VIG, HAS BEEN KILLED.

A subtle ticking came form the junction box that Tina had been working on. The ticking signaled an unfinished task...

***

Two hooded figures join hands in the shadow of an alleyway. "I have finally found you...I beg you to forgive me for taking so long." and the gentle reply "Nothing matters as long as we are together n..."

The word frozen in her throat, the woman slumps forward into the man's arms. Bewildered, her wraps his arms around her to prevent her falling and feels the hot slick of what can only be blood covering her back.

CHRISTINE, TOWN ARSONIST, HAS BEEN KILLED.

***

A lithe figure slips through an open window, and shrinks to floor allowing a moment to pass so that vision might adjust to the darkness. It was not sight, sound, nor any other physical ability that warned the figure of impending disaster - it was pure instinct. Already rolling to avoid the mechanical hands that reached for the figure, a narrow escape was executed. The figure completed a series of leaps that ended in another room,and then to another window sill. The escape was complete.

***

The ticking grew faster, and a subtle whining began. Had Tina been alive to fix it, she would have, but that would never happen again. The whining turned into a grinding, and as the situation grew worse, gouts of steam were released to prevent pressure from growing.but to no avail.

With a great wrenching of metal upon metal, the mechanism that controlled the mechanical sun and moon came to a crashing halt.

THE LAST MEMBER OF THE MACHINISTS GUILD IS DEAD. THIS PREVENTS VITAL MAINTENANCE TO BE PERFORMED UPON THE SUN AND THE MOON, AND TRAPPING THE TOWN IN THE PHASE THAT IT HAPPENED DURING. THE TOWN WILL ENTER INTO A NEW NIGHT PHASE. PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR NIGHT ACTIONS.

***

Some hours later, a blade whisked from a sheath, startling the person who had no idea that a figure stood behind them.

A determined voice edged out a rough whisper, even as the blade was in motion. "Now, you die..."

The point of the blade was positioned to pierce the heart, but stopped suddenly upon a brass plate. The victim grunted, surprised by the force of the blow, but still managed to spin around to defend themselves further...but the assassin was gone.

JenLenaMom · March 20, 2012

Well this should be fun. :rolleyes:

Go ahead Ape tell everyone how you jailed the big bad tracker and there was no conversion and woohoo go you.

鲍勃不是我的名字 · March 20, 2012

I'd like to hear Verbal's reveal at this point.

Christine · March 20, 2012

Frack everything about this.

I would have taken half of you with me. Y'all just have no idea.

John E. Kelley · March 20, 2012

*Sigh*

No one ever listens to me. I'm guessing that wasn't Ape that blocked you Meesh.

And sorry Chrissy. I tried. Guess I'm plain vanilla now. Yay.

Christine · March 20, 2012

It would have been so romantic.....

John McClane · March 20, 2012

Well this should be fun.

Go ahead Ape tell everyone how you jailed the big bad tracker and there was no conversion and woohoo go you.

I jailed you, as I stated earlier in thread.

The point of the blade was positioned to pierce the heart, but stopped suddenly upon a brass plate. The victim grunted, surprised by the force of the blow, but still managed to spin around to defend themselves further...but the assassin was gone.

So there were 3 kill attempts, 1 blocked. Is it possible that scum can choose to make a NK attempt instead of a conversion? Anyone want to take credit for the kill on Tina or Christine? Meesh do you know from the QTs who did what?

Meesh said she targeted Verbal, but he's obviously not dead. I jailed JLM. Meesh can you confirm that the death scenes that use the blade are YOUR kills? Was your kill attempt the one that was blocked? If so, this will mean both Tina and Meesh had kill attempts on Verbal that failed.

Quite possible that Verbal needs to be lynched. Him knowing the win condition of the automatons says more about him being scum, than town. If true, and automatons can't win with scum, then giving them the ability to convert or kill makes sense for balance.

Right now there are 2 automatons (based on scenes, that haven't been killed), at least 2 original scum, based on DPR confirming in my QT that there is more than 1 original scum to Wombat. If scum needs to outnumber town, then we aren't in as dire a position as I originally thought.

I need to check the list of kills/

Good luck town!

DPR · March 20, 2012

I don't have time to color code right now - I made the OP so that you can tell who's still alive. I have no idea why the coding did what it did.

DPR · March 20, 2012

I'll be out for a few hours. Get those NAs in!

John McClane · March 20, 2012

Day 1---

Ended prematurely.

Night 1---

13. Turin - Town Priest - killed Night 1

18. Songstress - Town Doc - killed Night 1

+ Conversion scene (nobody jailed)

Day 2---

5. Despo - Town Elite Bodyguard - lynched Day 2

12. Basel Gil - Town Politician - killed Day 2 (by TINA)

Night 2---

15. Mawthtex - Town Politician - killed Night 2

20. Red - Town Double Voter - killed Night 2

- NO Conversion scene (Wombat jailed)

Day 3---

26. Nolder - Town Cop converted into Mafia Automaton - lynched Day 3

Night 3---

7. Aemon - Town CPR Doc - killed Night 3

4. Blackhoof - Town Watcher converted to mafia Automaton - killed Night 3

19. Key - Town Gunsmith - killed Night 3

+ Conversion scene (Crusher jailed)

Day 4---

21. Razen - Town Vig - lynched Day 4

Night 4---

2. Ithi - Town Lie Detector - killed Night 4

3. Piano - Symp - killed Night 4

+ Conversion scene (Nobody jailed)

Day 5---

24. Kae - Town Doc - lynched Day 5

Night 5---

17. Song - Town Cop - killed Night 5

23. Teh Crushlove - Town Mirror - killed Night 5 (by MEESH)(I corrected this to have occurred as a night action.)

+ Conversion scene (Nobody jailed)

Day 6---

6. Womby - Town Strongman, lynched Day 6

Night 6---

1. Christine - Town Arsonist - killed Night 6

8. Tina - Town Vig - killed Night 6

- NO Conversion scene (JLM jailed)

Remaining (9):

9. Ishmael

10. Pale

11. Leelou

14. Meesh

16. JLM

22. Verbal

25. Lily (viewed by Song, was originally town)

27. Amegakure / Ape (viewed by Song, was originally town)

28. Sensei (viewed by Song, was originally town)

We know that 2 of the remaining are automaton, based on only seeing 2 dead, and 4 conversion scenes. We know that DPR told Wombat in my QT that there is more than 1 original scum. So, we can assume its 5 town / 2 scum / 2 automaton.

IF Verbal is truthful and automaton cannot win with scum, then its 5-2 town advantage. If he's lying, then its 5-4 town.

John McClane · March 20, 2012

Also, I think the scene makes it look like Christine and Ishmael were trying to find each other maybe?

Can somebody update my list and attribute kills to the people who have claimed they made them? Like I did with Tina's kill on Basil and Meesh's kill on Crusher?
