Smilie Mafia 2: Backstabbed - Game Thread [Small Mafia] [Concluded]

[Xym]

Who is the wolf Xym?

Idk.
The way Zack was talking to Arakhor the past few day phases there's no way they were team mates; it was drawing a lot of attention.

So that leaves Yako and Murska.

I trusted Murska early because of his D1, but he's fallen quiet since around the middle of the game.
That being said, he's had the empowerment every day bar one. That's a lot of opportunity for a wolf to cause havoc, though I'm not sure if the empowerments have been used what some of them did.

For the moment by process of elimination, I'll vote: Yakostavian

Zack and Visor sure you don't want the empowerment?

 

[Murska]

Eh. I'm sorry to say it's just process of elimination.

Vote: Xym
Vote: Murska

 

[Xym]

Eh. I'm sorry to say it's just process of elimination.

So then, everyone else has been cleared and that's it? Weird.

Sorry, I tried.
It's late and I probably won't be able to be online for EoD but I'll try in case it matters.

 

[Xym]

Fwiw, when I looked at the empowerment voting records, both known wolves avoided giving the empowerment to Murska, so might as well ensure

vote: Murska

 

[Visorslash]

So then, everyone else has been cleared and that's it? Weird.

Sorry, I tried.
It's late and I probably won't be able to be online for EoD but I'll try in case it matters.

Pretty much.

 

[Visorslash]

If it's not you, it's yako

 

[topsecret]

Tally

Xym - 5 (Zack, Yakostovian, Visorslash, Murska)
Yakostovian - 1 (Xym)

Empowerment

Murska - 6 (Zack, Yakostovian, Xym, Visorslash, Murska)

 

[Visorslash]

And now we wait

End of Day Seven

​

The Smilies who had already been killed or lynched (affectionately known as "Those Beyond the Grave") gathered at the Courthouse, ready to see another lynching.

"You think they chose the right person?" Rakkoon said, thinking back to last's night... explosive turn. "I don't want anyone to go through that again."

"I think so," said Manasi.

"What makes you so sure?" Takhisis asked. "Awful confident there."

"Just a hunch." she replied.

Soon they saw the five living Smilies arrive, each one with a confident look on their faces - except Xym.

"Guys! I am telling you. Something strange is going on. We've got to do something about this... don't lynch me!"

"Hehe. Nice distraction," Visorslash said. "But we know you are guilty."

Xym looked away. Then he saw Topsecret. "Is this it? I can't even talk to them. I am just condemned?"

"It's in their hands," Topsecret replied, "and you've got to go through with it."

Xym sighed. "Alright, but I'll have you know something!" All the Smilies turned to look at him. "I am a ninja. I could've escaped if I wanted to do so. But I'm telling you, something strange is gonna happen - I can feel it."

"Woah." Choxorn said. "How did you talk in orange?"

Xym looked startled. "I don't know."

Xym's last words had been given. Topsecret gave permission and...

Xym was lynched!

Spoiler :

He was !

Spoiler :

He was Bad!

Spoiler :

The Bad Smilies have been eliminated!​

GAME OVER​

Conclusion
​

Zack, Murska, Yakostovian, and Visorslash all stood together at the Courthouse. Evil was defeated! The Bad Smilies had been taken down, and the Good Smilies ruled the day!

Kind of.

Topsecret walked up to the four living Smilies. Each one looked steadfastly at him, to see what his face revealed about the conclusion of this attempt to save Forumville.

"My friends, you have defeated the Bad Smilies. SouthernKing, Arakhor, and Xym were indeed the ones killing you."

All of the Good Smilies cheered! The three Bad Smilies, standing with the rest of "Those Beyond the Grave", looked forlornly at Topsecret and the surviving players.

"Zack, Murska, and Yakostovian, will you please reveal your alignment to the other Smilies?"

Zack stepped forward. "I am Hug . I am a Good Smilie!"

Takhisis muttered something along the lines of, "I'm not sure I agree with that assessment."

Murska announced, "I am Cool . My alignment is Good!"

Beroli, however, was still not fully convinced that Murska wasn't still guilty of something.

Yakostovian answered, "I am Thinker . And I too am a Good Smilie."

Rakkoon made a remark about Yakostovian sometimes thinking too much.

"Well done, Good Smilies. There's something I have to tell you, if you haven't figured it out by now."

All the Smilies looked at Visorslash. The sky again became dark. Topsecret spoke with clarity and earnesty. "You all have defeated the Bad Smilies, but while you were taking out the Smilies, Visorslash was amassing power. He is a Mysterious Smilie."

Visorslash laughed; it was a deep, loud, and (arguably) evil laugh. "Thanks for the help, my friends. While you all were looking for Mafia, you let me conduct my experiments. I am Splat , and I have been using my fish to put spots on people's faces. The more people with spots on the their faces who died, the more powerful I became. You all played right into my hands. I now have enough power to stop all of you who stand in my way."

Visorslash forced Topsecret to rename Forumville to Visorville. "My victory is complete! But enough of this place... I am leaving all of you so that I can conquer new lands." Visorslash finished speaking, and within a split second, he ran out of their sight. All the Smilies looked on in awe. Topsecret just shook his head. No telling where he was heading or if anyone could stop him now.

"Well, it looks like that's that. I am glad you all came together for this mafia game. It's been too long since Mafia games filled Visorville Forumville with laughter, treachery, intrigue, and victory. So this is my challenge to all of you Smilies - both living and dead.

Don't let Mafia and NOTW die on CivFanatics Center. That, my dear Smilies, would be a real defeat."

Gg all

Indeed. A ton of power. I've learned some more balancing lessons: less is more.

 

[Arakhor]

Congratulations on winning, Visor! Now I feel like a Goddamn prophet for what I said to you in my first PM.

I also remember the LotR game where you were running the last town network I was involved in and suddenly you turned out to be the serial killer.

 

[Zack]

Thanks for running, topsecret.

gg everyone, xym in particular played really well and only got caught by the constricting POE.

QT links?

 

[Visorslash]

I did claim to zack pretty much immediately

Thankfully he believed me

 

[Arakhor]

Oh and once again, I got my Cassandra moment for realising that the Spot was an important game mechanic and not just flair in the write-up. Now if only I could put that insight to more general use and I'd be a much better player.

POE = ?

 

[Visorslash]

Does anyone else think that the spot on the face is more likely the work of a neutral than either good or evil?

I love how nobody picked up on this lolololol
