Mafia 13 Lord of the Rings - Town Win

[Tommy Caton's Hairstylist]

we'll be starting soon, just back from training

[Tommy Caton's Hairstylist]

You travel late into the night and make camp in the woods when you reach them. Exhausted you all tumble into your bedrolls leaving Gimli on guard. You are awakend during the night by the screaming of the Nazgul again, they have surrounded the camp and Gimli is nowhere to been seen. All looks lost.
Suddenly the Elves of Lothlorien appear drive off the the Nazgul. You must hurry, our Queen Galadriel wants to see you. They will not follow you where we are going. You gather up your belongings and Gimli is still missing. Legolas finds himnot far from where he was on guard, he has been killed by a rock just like Merry was. Gimli was Footballnewb and part of Mason Group C



Not far from his body is another, that of Happy Axeman, it seems the Nazgul attacked him just after he finished of Gimli, as Happy Axeman was Gollum and the serial Killer




The Elves leave you no more time, with the Nazgul still around you must move and now. They take you into to the heart of Lothlorien when you spend several days resting and in consultation with the Lady Galadriel.
Finally you are ready to continue and the Elves give you some canoes to travel down the river Anduin and it is here that we start day three

Day 3 – From Lothlorien down the River Anduin   

There are now 11 of you left

AfroBoy
Bluestars
Hippo
LaserBlue
Liverbird
Miasg
Sir Hammer
SVH
Trick Pony
Wesmancity
Yorkshire Blue

So it takes 6 votes to now cause a lynch. The time limit for Day three is till Midday Saturday UK time if no one is lynched before then.

[MIASG]

Ok a mason group c .. didn't expect that  .. and I was way wrong about FBN .. sorry mate 
 
but the mafia get the serial killer  good news for us townies as we can lose max 1 per night now ..

good news is we didn't lose a hobbit or the current ring bearer .. plus the serial killer gone.  At least steven you know now who killed you

[MIASG]

OK he was bad but who did Happy Axeman put pressure on last round .. hippo then mophead then laserblue then back to mophead.  this doesn'tmean I think your bad it just means you had a motive to kill Axeman ..

I find all 3 suspicious, Ive voted both Mophead and Laserblue, but i'm now going to UNVOTE LASERBLUE, VOTE MOPHEAD
Trick Pony's game has deffinatly changed, this is either because he was telling the truth that he was trying a different approach after dying early. or that he is indeed mafia attempting badly to cover his tracks... I was umming and ahhing between voting Trickpony... if i'm up early enough I will review it again...

I think it strange that Laser is also up for lynch, and hasnt voted mophead? and likewise Mophead hasnt voted Laserblue? I know i certainly would to save my own skin(just like Footynewb did I suppose), but i wouldnt wait till the last minute to put the nail in the coffin, which is what it looks like Laserblue or Mophead is going to do...
Could they both be mafia, in fact looking at the peeps not voted yet, all three of my suspects are there!
both are on my list of peeps to vote for today, but I'm feeling a bit uneasy with the people on the vote list for Mophead.
Afroboy is doing his usual mafia style play by agreeing with peeps all the time, Afroboys vote on Mophead is one of the reasons I will now change it.. UNVOTE MOPHEAD VOTE LASERBLUE

and whats this crap about me vs hippo? we have just tried to see what each other is about, which is the whole point of the game. I would much rather read 1 post with lots of facts and findings rather than millions of 1 sentence posts one after the other.
Mophead is very strange. He obviously isnt following the game properly, and like the last game he cost the town the win when it was clear as day... all he had to do was read what was going on. He is possibly evil, but is deffinatly 100% a liabilty.
Laserblue is coming on my radar a lot more, Something isnt right about him. I'll just have to keep studying his actions... and then Trickpony...
my thoughts are currently telling me that I have 3 options.
Laser, Mophead, Trickpony
UNVOTE HIPPOVOTE MOPHEAD

then the many mophead quote post (mopheads quotes not attached p16)

looking back through the posts, something has occured to me, Where is Liverbird? what  exactly has been her contribution? 

then the guy Steve was calling evil all day was Mophead, what has his contribution been?

All one line pointless and useless posts. I also think he has more motive than anyone to kill SteveRyals than anyone... FOS MOPHEAD

then there is also my other Major suspect, Trickpony. who was also another of Steve's main suspects... He calls me in one of posts for being defensive? what?? up until this point where Hippo seems intent on fitting me up, where have i been defensive? I would say ive been more on the offensive when ive posted.  is this another case of Mafia deflection.. he voted Ryals too...

[hippo]

Right then - 2 evil in the last 3 kills is a cracking return. And as MIASG says, there'll only be one kill at night now, so we're in a good position to stop the 2 (i think it'll be 2 anyway) remaining mafia. Let's make sure we continue the good work of yesterday.

OK he was bad but who did Happy Axeman put pressure on last round .. hippo then mophead then laserblue then back to mophead.  this doesn'tmean I think your bad it just means you had a motive to kill Axeman ..

He did put pressure on me, but it was blatantly only because i called him out, rather than him actually thinking i was evil. And he backed down from it after a couple of posts because he knew that i'd eventually make him slip up, because i'm pretty persistent like that.

Of the players that are left, i think we have 2 people that we can assume are alright. Wes as a mason, and Yorkshire Blue as a townie. The first one we all know about, but Yorkshire's big argument with mophead i think just about confirms him as innocent - they definitely don't strike me as people that would try and incriminate each other, just to make one look innocent when the other is dead. You might not agree, but i'm scratching him from my list of possibles. For this reason as well, i'm finding Laserblue less suspicious, as he was defended by Yorkshire against a mafia member, and seemed genuine enough when he was offering to roleclaim.

Just reading back through Axeman's posts now.. this should have been a give away really shouldn't it:

As for StevenRyals, He is always a high profile target so it came as no suprise to see him dead, hell, I even took him out in the 1st day of last game when i was serial killer! lol ...

Anyway..

I think it strange that Laser is also up for lynch, and hasnt voted mophead? and likewise Mophead hasnt voted Laserblue? I know i certainly would to save my own skin(just like Footynewb did I suppose), but i wouldnt wait till the last minute to put the nail in the coffin, which is what it looks like Laserblue or Mophead is going to do...

Afroboy is doing his usual mafia style play by agreeing with peeps all the time, Afroboys vote on Mophead is one of the reasons I will now change it..

Could he have been on to something with either of these bits? And as far as i can find, he was the only person to really mention afroboy yesterday. In fact, afroboy seems to have gone entirely under the radar in this game.

[bluestarsneyes]

I will not be around the computer much for the next two days...today I am off work with a sick mophead and tomorrow I will be out of town...I just wanted to let everyone know.

Well the news is mixed...we lost another town in Footballnewb...sad loss and really hate that...and totally confused me...I thought there to be obviously a group A and group b of masons as there are 4 hobbits but the group c confused me....so....I am sorry for questioning wes...I was confused. However, i find that the mafia choose not to take out the easy kill in wes and yet choose to kill of those that take up for him. Don't know if that will tell us anything but for now shows us mafia doesn't want to take an easy kill.

As far as Axeman as serial....that really doesn't shock me too much...I figured either he or hippo was the serial....guess that answers that.

Mophead evil again.....gggrrr... seriously my kid is too good as evil...I am sorry I didn't vote for him that was me not realizing he wasn't playing erratic as last game but rather evil...so hard to tell he just makes so many random statements.

I'm running errands now...but will try to log on again tonight before going out of town.

[mophead]

Yea thanks losers! I was really excited about being a Nazgul!!

Well that just stinks

[hippo]

Yea thanks losers! I was really excited about being a Nazgul!!

Well that just sucks.

(edited to remove mophead's illegal comment)

Interesting. Seems like he's trying to throw us off? And the whole not voting for each other yesterday thing, even though it was clear it would be one of them going, was highly suspicious. Surely it's too obvious though? I don't know.

The people not voting yesterday were: Laserblue (which i find incredible, considering how close it was), Trick Pony and Liverbird.

I can't get passed the fact that laserblue didn't vote for mophead. Why wouldn't you? The only way that makes sense is if you were working together and didn't want to. If laser's good, and has a role to claim, as he was suggesting, surely he'd see that as worth saving and vote for him? You'll have to explain this, laser.

Trick Pony's still suspicious for that bizarre list he put together, and the fact that he hasn't helped the town at all as yet. I'll review what he's done entirely and report back.

Liver Bird, it's impossible to tell isn't it? I do believe the story that her not voting was due to the TT though. It's impossible to tell either way as to where her loyalty lies generally because of the lack of posting. Hopefully she'll contribute a bit more now she's able to, as she said on the lounge thread.

[laserblue]

I did vote for mophead i just forgot to bold it (i had no reason not to as it was to save my own skin) ... sorry

Mophead coming on & mentioning me after he is dead is clearly trying to throw suspicion on me as the other person to get votes he obviously sees me as a soft target.

he's gonna know that looks bad on me.

the people I find most suspicious are Liverbird as I remember she did not make one post yesterday did not vote & her only vote so far has been for wes after he claimed???

the other I'm not so sure about is tp .... axeman mentioned him & although he has been on regulaly & posted lots ..... reading his posts hardly makes any sense at all???


I'm not gonna role claim at the mo as it will narrow the target down for the mafia, but I have no problem with revealing my role should it be necessary.

[Happy Axeman]

Dont fool yourself hippo by bigging yourself up(unless its self preservation cause you are mafia!), I was actually playing with my mindset as a townie...  i didnt back down from anything, there were more obvious mafia targets to go after.... hence why the mafia killed me, as they thought i was Town...

Ive read through all the past pages ive missed out on and i think ive finally caught up on everything. lol

Im sorry i couldnt vote but Mikeblue lives inside the TT course, and there was no way of me getting his laptop , but TT is now over thank god, and now i can get stuck in to this game properly..

[Liverbird]

Well you shouldnt find me suspicious , i geniunaly (dont mind the spelling) couldnt make it on here for the week. Im back now and wanna try an protect all remaining townies!

Im not really too sure what to think of everyone at the moment...

I'm not gonna role claim at the mo as it will narrow the target down for the mafia, but I have no problem with revealing my role should it be necessary.

no-one has told me whether i should roleclaim or not?

I'm gonna vote for mophead cause if he was innocent he would reveal his role & save himself

& i want to save my own skin as despite what some people think I am on the town side. 

Is Role claiming allowed or a good thing?? im a little confused lol because you keep going on about role claiming, but are you just saying that so then you actually look like your a townie? when your actually not?? Ive not read anyone else wanting to role claim but maybe your starting to panic a bit??

[laserblue]

welcome back .... well it seems my post had the desired effect & your back with us now

[hippo]

Personally I dont think that those who are in daily contact with each other should post about anything that doesnt happen within the thread as I would be inclined to believe Steveryals about mophead being evil just because of the way he acts around the house but this gives the town an unfair advantage.

Mophead is an enigma. Hes a nutcase in every game so you cant tell if he is actually evil or not! 


Bluestars, cut down on his sugar intake!

I think that Laser is evil but I get the feeling that Mophead is going to the gallows tonight.

Regardless I am staying with my vote

These posts read a bit like a mafia member resigned to losing one of his own don't they? Haven't really noticed him doing much during this game either.

[Liverbird]

welcome back .... well it seems my post had the desired effect & your back with us now

hahah yeah something like that 

[MIASG]

One thing for sure is that TP and Bluestars aren't the other mason with FootballNewb.

Right then - 2 evil in the last 3 kills is a cracking return. And as MIASG says, there'll only be one kill at night now, so we're in a good position to stop the 2 (i think it'll be 2 anyway) remaining mafia. Let's make sure we continue the good work of yesterday.

  Hippo if you are right and it is 2 (although if your  mafia your likely to lessen the real number) then that also makes it harder as we have a 1 in 5 1/2 chance of getting it right today .. personally I think there are 3 left .. as  we have the same as last game and there were 4 mafia in xmen. 

[Steve Van Halen]

after waiting for two bloody days and a couple of beers for some reason I forgot that mophead was actually voted off! 

well at least I posted! true what I said about Laser though, had my doubts towards the end

[Steve Van Halen]

I do feel like a total tit now though 

[MIASG]

Mophead please ensure that you have read the posts first this time before casting a vote! 

 bahahahahaha

also I was thinking about hippo's 2 mafia left .. if there were 2 left then all we would have to do is role claim today kill the obvious mafia  and  the survive 1 kill tonight and wrap it up tomorrow ..

there's no way there are 2 left ..  17 started .. 1 serial killer .. and 3 mafia .. leaving 13 townies?  I'm pretty convinced there's 4 mafia + 1 serial + 12 townies ..

[Tommy Caton's Hairstylist]

hey guys, Steve and I have edited a couple of posts and removed one as Mophead's post was inappropriate and some of the comments referred to it.

Sorry for the inconvience
