what VorBan said, plus, I myself was rather hazy on rules of play, the low number of participants didn't help either. I also note that the mafia players posted very little. I am not sure anyone used any of their skills, whether the skills had to be kept secret etc... My skill was amnesia by the way, I didn't know what side I was on lol
oh, I think players should have to post something more than a vote to make this interesting. I think I might have hid all the mead, but I forgot where I hid it ;/
Yeah, Abivard you had "amnesia", which meant you could really choose whatever player's role who is killed. And as Stynnes said, mafia are actually the one's who have the harder game to play. Generally speaking, per game there's roughly 20-25% mafia. However, if the participants don't talk and hardly post, then yes its really easy for the mafia to win. The more you talk, the more chances the mafia will screw up and expose themselves. And yes, using your abilities is key. The 1-shot vig could've won it quickly by killing outright, and Tuonela held on to his roles too long. Yes, there's many ways the game could have continued...but given the nature of this game overall I felt it best to call it. Generally, there wasn't a lot of participation and the mafia had controlled the game by that point. Without a lot of talking and a good deal of luck (the mafia were planning on killing VorBan next night, so there goes your one-shot-kill) hte game was set anyways. Thanks all for playing though! PS : Ironically, your mafia participated throughout the game the most. Also as I said Tuon, knowing how many is half the battle; half the battle I couldn't give you. You also had your free masons around!
I enjoyed it very much, wish there had been more people so that it would've lasted longer. It was quite fun to analyze all of you and watch the dynamics of the whole thing.
I certainly feel like I learned a lot. The time that I felt the most exposed was actually when I got called out for being quiet, and so posted two paired posts of "my analysis". I realized that I had almost posted it without mentioning Tark at all. Throughout most of it, I was doing things so that we would be working together, but without being obviously paired. For example, I refrained from voting for Varg so that our voting record wouldn't be overly similar. Also, I was trying very hard to have posts without actually saying anything. I would do this again. It would be nice to have some more people next time, and have everyone participate, but I would do this again.
