Simpsons Mafia (Game Thread)

Again, pizza, I ask you why you seem so sure of my guilt. Time and time again, you conveniently ignore these requests.

I am innocent. I ask to be released.


Vewwy well. Wewease..... Vewawde!


*nothing happens*


We uh.... we don't have a Vewawde, sir.


What? Then wewease..... woger!

No woger?? How about woddawick?
 
if there is a cult, it would surely want ATPG among its members (sorry, but I cannot stop thinking like that, even if I know it is metagaming). So, either ATPG is cult, or is unrecruitable. I do not believe there are many unrecruitable roles in the game. So, chances are pretty high that ATPG is a cultist. So, if I do not have better target, I can try to lynch him

Kudos, a very well constructed post facto bit of reasoning. That said, it's still targ manure. You be the cultist, man. I bet you guys tried to recruit me and now.... :( now you realize that you just.... just can't. :sad:

I really would have thought Mayor Quimby would be neutral too. Seriously, since when is *he* a law-abiding, heroic figure? He's a corrupt sack of dooky.
 
Atpg. Do you realize that all I have done is fos you? I have not actually voted and when I first declared my suspicion of you I was looking for information on wheher or not you were clear? You were the one to jump the gun and go haywire on me. You were the one to actually vote on me being scum. I would have been and still will be fine with lynching a lurker. I am sorry if fosing you is a crime as that is the only way I will be found guilty in this game. That said if you want to lynch me go right ahead. I know I do not have the sway or the experience to change the vote. Just remember how helpful my power would have been if you has kept me alive. I have 2to votes. From the sounds of it you are a hard player to read. I never said I was 100% correct on my fos of you, just that you appeared suspicious to me.

I have 2 votes as well, sir. I don't understand why we need two double-voters, even against a cult. One of us is guilty as sin.

On another note Winston and john have both voted for me without saying a word. Not even agreeing with atpg. They are in my opinion jumping on my bandwagon as they know atpg won't be stopped. I suggest looking there either now or next after you incorrectly lynch me.

"They know ATPG won't be stopped."

:lol::lol:


No, no of course not. They couldn't just lynch me or something. I am Askthepizzaguy after all, immune to lynches and murders alike.
 
It's simple. Zack's defense of you makes you guilty, or at the very least Scratchy-aligned. You're the best case on the table. Hospitalize: BigTin.
I don't like, however, the way ATPG presents his cases. As a townie, he appears detrimental to cooperation.

I'm a polarizing figure. You have to trade what mafia finding skills I'm purported to have and balance that out with an utter lack of interest in sugar-coating what I have to say. I'm working for the team, but if I see the team is being lazy, apathetic, or generally not paying attention, I won't be shy about calling them out on it.

Think of me as that football player that gets it into the endzone a lot, but also keeps to himself and spouts off in front of the camera. Options are to deal with it, or play without me via the lynch.

Either that, or he's a complete genius. As mafia, he's acting... just like he would usually. That's what makes me think that he's not mafia.

As mafia I'd have a few teammates telling me to shut up and be nice, instead I have no such censorship on what I have to say. :D

That being said, I have a question for you, ATPG.
Firstly, you claim to be very pro-town. Keeping that in mind, what do you have to gain from bringing up five or so cases at once (Verarde, myself, Jarrema, Olaf, BigTin...)? As a townie, would you rather not focus on one person at a time instead of dividing attention?

1) Did I make a case against you, landlubber? :( I don't even remember doing that. Then again I just woke up.

2) Verarde was whispered to me that he's guilty by someone else. Now, I examined the motives for doing that. A) the other person is scum, pulling off a huge gambit to eliminate one townie who can't even vote yet. B) the other person is town telling the truth. I just don't see any reason to bluff that Verarde is mafia. It's one of those lies which has little or no motivation for it. I trust the source as far as I can hurl them, but why not toss them a bone and see where it leads?

3) One or two or three of Olaf, BigTin, and Jarrema are guilty. I bet you a stack of pizzas. Go with whoever is trying to act the most like a typical townie, who has the weakest defense and weakest case against anyone.

Bigtin- "I'm innocent, you'll see! Just wait until I'm sorta lynched and I get fake results back!"
Bigtin- "ATPG is acting scummy!"
Bigtin- "You'll see I'm a townie after you lynch me for reals"

I don't care if the game host himself told me via investigation that BigTin was innocent at this point. I would think I'm naive or insane.


Jarrema, Olaf, Verarde? Probably his cultist buddies. Remember, if there is a cult and I think there is, otherwise why in the blue hades is RICH UNCLE SKELETON in this game? Seriously? Go look up who in the heck that thing is. It was a 3 second on screen gag reference to Disney-copyrighted material.

Where was I? Oh yes. Somebody there very guilty, and I'll take the one leading the charge against townie pizzaguy for 400, Alex.
 
Only people who don't know you would bother wasting their time like that.

Not true, actually. I've had a number of heated exchanges with mafia teammates over the years due to disagreement as to the direction of the game or what risks I was taking or choices I've made. These were usually people I've played with before.

I do listen, too, btw. I don't want to ruin my teammate's game.
 
To those voting against ATPG:

Actually, I'd like to know your reasons for thinking he's scum as well. As far as I can see, he's been giving the best reasoning for his votes out of anybody in the entire game. Doing well doesn't make somebody scum.

Somehow I feel you're trying to kill me with kindness, or at least lull me into a false sense of security. That said, thanks. That's my preferred method of death!

To ATPG:

I'm going to unvote Gone 3 the Celt, if you really think my reasoning is off. I was simply trying to participate and get some ideas out there, since as far as I could see nobody else had any ideas. Because no matter what else happens, if town players can't work together as a cohesive unit, we are completely screwed.

Your reasoning seemed cautious and self-conscious, as if you were worried someone might countervote you if you picked an active player. That's not necessarily the case, but it is similar to other situations where I've seen that. That was the best I had until Bigtin tried to kill me.

And I concur, unless townies form up and fight in formation spears pointed all the same way, we'll be torn to bits by mafia berserkers.

I posted, being open to counter-reasoning, and got accused for my efforts.

Heck no, not your efforts. Your efforts are to be commended. I just felt your target/reasoning felt wrong.

I am in no way hostile to the town. I'm nominally here to survive, but if I can help the town win as well, that's what I want to do. May anybody with a kill ability strike me down if I lie.

My issue with this is you've basically admitted to being a neutral. As such, I'd recommend you get scanned tonight to make sure you're still neutral in the morning.

To BigTin:

I'm rather inclined to believe ATPG right now. Hospitalise: BigTin, and I sincerely hope ATPG is right.

The Zack business just doesn't sit right. Something has to explain why he wouldn't be happy with hospitalizing BigTin, especially if he's conscious of the fact that the jail reveals are false.
 
ATPG, can you acknowledge the fact that I never tried to kill you, not once. I was merely askng why we were letting you lead as you appeared supicious to me. I never voted against you during this whole argument. Never. You meanwhile jumped right in and accused me of being maf from your gut feeling and something someone guilty said when I was about to be lynched.

As you have said yourself, Scratchy was and is likely the cult leader of the cult. Scratchy was paulwhoisaghost. Zach is Poochie. Unless Zach was already culted when he said it, which is possible, he may have just used me as an example as I was the current target for the lynch.
 
voting period over. Update on the way
 
EVENING FIFTEEN

After finding out the last few days about some citizens who didn't have the welfare of the entire town at heart, people were wary about their decision today.

"Hey guys, remember The Leader? He tried to run away with all of our money too."

"Yeah, BigTin has to be a fraud just like that."

"Let's get him!"

The crowd rushed forward with bloodlust in their eyes, causing another one of their victims to experience severe injuries.

Spoiler :
BigTin was hospitalized


Waiting to see what the night would bring, they hoped today had settled some of their problems.

NIGHT FIFTEEN

Many people returned home to bar their own doors, still fearful of anything from outside harming them during the night.

However, for another night these fears didn't materialize, as the citizens were able to all gather and see that no one had been attacked in the morning.

*******************​

Authorities from the hospital also had important news to share about Autolycus. After some investigation, though medically Autolycus would be fine, information about prior doings during this crisis needed to be made public.

Autolycus was strongly motivated by financial interests in Springfield's business sector and a general desire for reform. Fed up with her perceptions of corruption in various aspects of Springfield life, she admitted she was part of a secret group acting in their own interests apart from the rest the town.

Spoiler :
Lindsey Naegle (Autolycus) is a member of the Sprungfeld Conspiracy!


Knowing there were still criminals who had to be caught, the people gathered at town hall again continued their voting process.

All PMs should be out by shortly after the update- any other questions/concerns contact us.​
 
jail: classical_hero

I believe that I know who you are, and that person's boss is Choxorn a neutral

therefore, you're either neutral or in a cult now

Sorry for my inactivity lately, folks

verarde because he's the only one in jail. And I like the Princess Bride.
 
Folks whose identities I've been protecting need to contact me today and give me some sort of update on just what in the blue marble they've been doing with the time I've afforded them.

Verarde will remain in prison.
 
hospitalize: Jarrema

Jarrema, Jarema, Jeremy, something's gotta give. I can't pronounce your name because it doesn't make sense to me!
 
Good reason, Pizza guy!
Keep good jiob!

hospitalize: Classical Hero
 
But Earthling! You said you would get a replacement. ;) No seriously, I understand, anyway I'm back.

Um...I'll Abstain for now, let me see some more evidence on players before I scum attack.
 
jail: classical_hero
 
I like the fact we're jumping on Gone3's bandwagon when he himself has been acting on the shady side.
