The Mass Effect Mafia (Game Thread)

Recommended Posts

Sorry for my absence. I was out last night.

 

Dud, I didn't believe Sheikah outright, hence my vote shifting. I did, however, believe that Yvonne was more suspicious. I strongly believe he is mafia, and I've come to think of you as mafia by both association and playing style (I could be very wrong on that, though, I admit, but I am still fairly convinced - it's that damned hunch!).

 

As for Dedede, he seemed more confused to me in the previous day, than shifty. I could be wrong on that too. I've been wrong before when he's mafia. I haven't been able to keep up with the arguments about how many certain powers there can/should be in a small game and on each side, or what or who is untargetable on odd or even nights and what this means - and it doesn't seem to matter in this game so I'm sticking with hunches for now.

 

Also, even though I suspect Ganepark, Yvonne seems like more trouble to me, which I think was already agreed yesterday (or today?).

Votes - As they stand

 

Yvonne - Magnus Peterson (1)

 

Ganepark32 - Yvonne, DuD. Jon Dedede, Peeps (5)

 

Majority is 5

 

The crew of the Normandy were on a mission. 3 members of the crew were killed and they were no closer to finding out who killed Shepard. They had their eyes set on one person, they were quickly surrounded and taken to the Normandy on-board prision suite.

 

Ganepark32 is no longer in the game, he was Miranda Lawson

Ex-Cerburus agent. You, along with Jacob left Cerburus after the events of II. Unlike Jacob, you have been hiding in the shadows hunting your sister and trying to protect her from the Illusive Man. Since the Illusive Man died at the hands of Shepard, you have come out of the shadows once more to aid those who need help. But something kept drawing you back to the shadows, because that’s where you felt comfortable.

 

Your power and role – You are a roleblocker, you can roleblock anyone and prevent them from reaching their target for the night. This can only be prevented if a protector targets your target. As a bonus, you can intercept information from your target if they have anything on them regarding their target. This action is only available if your target has information, otherwise it’s just a roleblock.

 

He was a member of the Mafia

 

 

With the latest arrest, the crew were back on track as they landed on Eden Prime to deliver supplies before heading to Omega

The night was spent by various people wandering around trying to find someone with no luck. A few notes were left around advising people to go here, there and everywhere. The next day, the Normandy left Eden Prime after stocking supplies in the colony. The next destination, the Omega system. Heading towards the Mass relay, they had to refuel before heading through. So a quick stop was made to the fuel station.

 

Jacob Taylor, ex-cerburus was placed in charge of refueling the ship. Just as the fuel was finished being loaded onboard, he unclipped the fuel pipe. As he was doing this, he was ambushed. In a very similar method to that of Javik and Wrex, he was left with 2 broken legs and screaming in pain. But, unlike Javik who was loaded into an escape pod, Jacob was put in a spacesuit and ejected into space. As he was floating in space, he tried to radio the Normandy. Instead of getting Joker as he would normally do, he got a strange message. "Congratulations, you are about to become the first man to travel inter-galactic with no ship". As the message ended, he felt a surge of power hit him. Looking back, he saw the Mass Relay was pulling him in. Before he could say anything, he was gone. Who knows where.

 

Jacob Taylor has vanished/died, Mr-Paul is no longer in the game.

 

Jacob_Character_Box.png

 

Ex-Cerburus agent, having left them after the events of II. You are Jacob Taylor, a specialist in hand weaponry. You helped out in getting other ex-Cerburus to help in the Reaper invasion with the alliance. You are thankful to the alliance for helping you in your time of need.

 

Your power/role is as follows – Target Swap Reflector. You pick 2 targets, whomever targets your first choice gets choice 2 and visa versa. Or you can choose 1 target and reflect the power back onto themselves. Only one choice per night.

 

 

He was Town

 

 

A short tribute video was made for the late Jacob Taylor by the crew from old CCTV footage.

 

 

With the demise of Jacob, the Normandy passed through the Mass relay and into the Omega system. The ship soon docked with Omega itself. Let the fun begin.

I went after Yvonne but wound up at Cube, who was asking if I had seen Mr-Paul.

 

Obviously, I'll still be strong on a Yvonne lynch today. I feel it's long overdue...

 

*I tried to put in a clip from YouTube, here, but it appears that I still lack the nous.*

I tried investigating Mr-Paul and passing it onto Mangus, but (as Mangus' info suggests) I couldn't find him.

 

So

 

DuD - Became a rock

Jon Dedede

Cube - Tried to investigate Mr-Paul, failed.

The Peeps

Magnus Peterson - Was redirected to Cube. Cube was attempting to locate Mr-Paul.

Yvonne

I tried to protect mr-paul but couldn't find him. It's a real shame I can't protect from kills because that's twice I've tried to protect someone on the same night they've been killed :hmm:

 

So mr-paul switched Yvonne and Cube?

 

I am willing to vote Yvonne today.

One down, two to go.

 

And once again...

vote Jon Dedede

 

Jon's claims continue to be unverifiable. He targeted mr-paul last night, according to my PM. Twice he's killed, and no one is listening to my info. If you're going to let Sheikah's horseshit fuck the game up at this point I am gonna roast you in the after party. One wrong vote and it's game over.

Yeah or it seems like part of my role that Cube verified as typical of my character. You've claimed character cop, why not check it out?

 

As far as I'm concerned, Jon Dedede and Magnus represent the remaining mafia. This is where Cube's vote is going to matter. I hope keeping him alive was not a mistake.

I'm of the opinion that Cube is neutral. With a double vote and 2 mafia left there would have been a quick lynch.

 

The way players behave and interact seem to be completely at the discretion of the GM and all I have received is varying and unclear guidance. I still have no answer about my night 2 pm, but if the explanation Jimbob gave me about info gathering isn't inclusive in being 'untargetable' I should have still been able to reach. Whether Sheikah was still lying to bring suspicion on Yvonne after he alleged to come clean is still a possibility I suppose.

 

Yvonne has now lied again about my target which is now 1 person instead 3 as he said last time.

They've both claimed identical powers.

I'm not sure I believe either of them.. I don't feel there's enough in the accusations? I just wonder if they're a rouse to distance?

 

Trying to judge the current game state...

If we're looking at a four man mafia, Cube and Peeps can't be a part of it as it would have reached majority already.

So 4 man mafia would be Ganepark, Yvonne, DeDeDe and Magnus.

 

I can't see Magnus and Yvonne on the same team though, so that points at a 3 man mafia.

I think a 3 man mafia would be seriously underpowered however unless they hold one of those double votes!

 

It would be interesting for others opinions one this.

I do think if Cube was mafia he would've voted already... majority is 4 and a lynched townie would mean a majority of 3 with (most likely) 3 mafia left. As it stands, myself and Cube can reach majority alone which is a major thorn in the mafia's side... I am really surprised we've both lasted this long.

 

I have to say I agree with you DuD, if there are 3 mafia remaining it's surely Yvonne, Dedede and Magnus... unless you're mafia instead :p but I do trust you over the others.

 

I'll vote Yvonne by the end of tonight I think, unless someone has a really good reason not to.

I can track and am supposed to be 'untargetable' or reflect which I don't know how exactly that works as nobody has targeted me when I've used it the past 2 nights. It's supposed to reflect a power back at whoever has targeted me and give some info describing what happened.

 

I don't know much about numbers for mafia, I assumed there was 3 in total as it's been about 1/4 of all the other games I've played in.

I kind of think that Yvonne's post:

 

This is where Cube's vote is going to matter. I hope keeping him alive was not a mistake.

 

Is secretly saying "Psst, Cube. We, the mafia, have opted to not killed you. We think you should return the favour *hint hint*".
