Video Game Mafia - Game Over: Maney and Spoobir Victorious

[Gaurav_7]

Well, I don't know if I still believe Colin but, as many are opting out, me too is doing the same.

To be honest, with no intentions of defending PS at all, modding the Scooby Doo mafia, I feel PS isn't much active anyways irrespective of his alignment, I guess.

One good thing that I find is, Zohaib gets the results based on the alignments of the people. I mean he doesn't get it town/anti-town.

Now that I think of it, if there are anti-hero then there ought to be hero roles too? Or, am I just going a bit over?

People seem fixated on the idea that just because Barmy and Tom both came up as anti-hero, they are cult. However, in most games we have had 2 individual aligned players so not sure why that shouldn't occur here.

I do, however agree that there could be a cult so finding that could be helpful.

Will have a better look in a roly mo.

That was what I figured before Zohaib blew that for me

I don't know. But, what is your win condition again? You just need to survive? My win condition says, I win if the antagonists are dead. So, I assume antagonists are different and anti heroes are different. Also, anti heroes aren't a threat to the protagonists then. But, Tom seemed a threat...

 

[barmyarmy]

My win condition is to simply to survive.
I don't know if Tom was a threat or not. Just to quote from wikipedia though:

In fiction, an antihero is generally considered to be a protagonist whose character is at least in some regards conspicuously contrary to that of the archetypal hero, and is in some instances its antithesis. Some consider the word's meaning to be sufficiently broad as to additionally encompass the antagonist who (in contrast to the archetypal villain) elicits considerable sympathy or admiration

----------

Also it seems that I was wrong on the grammar point. Protagonist can mean a group of people. Themer is just a smartarse

 

[Ollie_H]

I think he is basically a modified survivor.

I would suggest we keep barmy alive for as long as he proves himself to be useful. He's claimed individual alignment, so he poses no threat, and along the line we now have a sure out when it boils down to the final few of us. He's said he can be useful to us, so when it comes to a point he's outlasted said usefulness we can lynch him off.

It's not too dissimilar to the position I was in during LotR, whereby you all kept me alive for a few days because I had come clean, and knew I wasn't going to win...

Meanwhile, I would suggest his [Colin] point about PSq is a good one, so therefore:

Lynch: PSquared

 

[barmyarmy]

so when it comes to a point he's outlasted said usefulness we can lynch him off.

It's nice to have your future mapped out for you. You'd incentivise me more by saying that if I help you take out the mafia you'll let me share in your victory by not killing me...

 

[Ollie_H]

I am the cop, that is why I didnt believe Bevab's role claim

Question to Zohaib, if you were the cop and hadn't investigated Bevab, why would you not believe him?

 

[barmyarmy]

Bevab claimed cop.

Also with the difference that you actually were cult.

 

[Manly]

I'm fighting your corner here haha... C'mon man!

As I said I didn't know anything about Tom's role. Obviously he could be killed by the mafia. You're right, my role is a powerful one. As I said before I have currently taken on mafia immunity powers, if I take on a cop power or other town power role I lose the mafia immunity for that night. At the start of the game it obviously makes sense for me to take the mafia immunity power so I don't die at night.
In the later stages of the game that will be an incredibly powerful role against the mafia. A cop who can investigate anyone and publicise the results (assuming I don't get mafia-killed on the night I use them).

How have you already taken on the mafia immunity powers?

----------

Bevab claimed cop.

Oh yeah, good point. Although, nothing wrong with there being two cops . Guess the sacrifice of Bevab has done it's job now.

 

[barmyarmy]

How have you already taken on the mafia immunity powers?

I took them on night 0.

 

[Ollie_H]

See, this is where I think you could become dangerous. What about if you had taken Darth Vader's powers last night and can use them from now on? Assuming he was the Godfather, it would mean you and the mafia now have killing powers.

 

[Spoobir]

Who is your character barmy?
