I'm not going to say much because the game isn't officially over, but it was 2, but there was a player who was the perfect distraction who I wasn't aligned with.

Interesting that DDS didn't say the game was outright over. Maybe there's a chance...?

MM If you were not one shot vig, if you can still shoot, then there is a chance that both you and scum can hit two cult and then if there are currently 3 cult it won't be 4vs7 or 3v6 if both of you hit cult tonight.

There is still a chance. It's still 4 to 3 so if your recruit tonight fails town can still win.

Ok, let's assume the current situation is 3 cult vs 3 town vs 1 scum.

- scum kills cult and recruit fails. It will be 2 cult vs 3 town vs 1 scum. Game continues.
- scum kills cult and recruit goes through. It will be 3 cult vs 2 town vs 1 scum. Game over.
- scum doesn't kills anyone and recruit fails. It will be 3 cult vs 3 town vs 1 scum. Game continues.
- scum doesn't kills anyone and recruit goes through. It will be 4 cult vs 2 town vs 1 scum. Game over.

So yeah, if the recruiter fails, the game will continue.

OR

Scum is lynched, cult is 3 vs 3, cult recruits during night, becomes 4 vs 3. Cult wins.

You need to see me as town before making that statement :D Also, being "caught" D5 while having fooled everyone else so far (especially Dakky) is counted as improvement here.

Mass Effect 1 - N5 Death of the Geth

PostPosted: Sun Sep 03, 2017 8:39 pm

Shepard and the remaining crew have once again, isolated themselves, more or less out of fear of one another. Shepard checks his email, and it's encryption says simple "We need to meet. Travel to Feros".

Shepard rallies his crew, and they land on Feros. Immediately disembarking, they are greeted not by anything human, but a Geth, who simply states he is their "Commander". Upon questioning the Geth further, he simply states that a threat larger than himself has awakened and has already converted much of their team. It lies deep inside the ruins of the Prothean race, and only with joining forces, could they hope to stand a chance.

The unspeakable happens though. The majority of the crew steps outside of the Normandy, and bum rushes the Geth Commander. Ragian - Geth Commander has been killed!

The same crew that killed the Geth Commander departs for the ruins, while the ones remaining, with their last shred of sanity, follows in tow.

For the sake of the game, N5 will commence today. I'm changing it to 48 hours however since there's not even a handful of people to send me their actions.

Days 6 (And probably the of the game), will commence on the 5th.

So a few things I learned...No point in setting a deadline so early on Days 1. I'm still an advocate for it, but no point in hindering everyone else's ability.

My voting mechanic didn't change dick. Lesson learned, don't change a core mechanic.

I think I made it a bit overpowered for the Thorian not to be standard night kill (Day kill or piercing would have killed it). The idea was to have everyone recognize a threat, band together and identify it, and kill it. Same thing with Sovereign. The main argument, in a thematically term, it'd make zero sense for Wrex to gun ho a massive sentient ship, by himself, whereas the plant, you can probably get away with it.

DJFireside was non-existent in terms of co-hosting. Skoffin did more than DJ. I really didn't want to drag someone else to co-host it so I just kind of sucked it up and went with whatever idea seemed great.

If there's any other criticism that people want to offer, please let me know here. First time hosting a game, enjoyed it!

Edit - I feel like I owe an explanation for Madmitch and Fircoal. When Madmitch was killed, it was a storyline kill. I pmed Skittles and gave him a choice between Kaiden or Ashley, and he chose Ashley. Fast forward and Fircoal became inactive, so I sought a replacement (regardless of role, I would have sought one). Mitch PMed me and wished to rejoin the game, and since I only had one other PM from someone (A day later after I told Mitch he can rejoin), I allowed. Normally, I wouldn't allow a player to rejoin, however, given that A. Mitch had no knowledge of any one else's role or alignment (And I prohibited him from sharing about being story killed UNLESS he was asked), and B. His previous role didn't give him anything to work off of to begin with anyways. I concluded that Mitch would not be an unfair advantage for anyone if he were to rejoin.

When was everybody recruited? On the last night I switched dakky and Skittles, thinking Skittles would try to recruit dakky. What a bonehead move.I think I deserve to lose this game anyways because of leaving my vote and letting the quicklynch happen. madmitch, if you weren't cult why were on all 3 cult wagons? I'm not going to apologize for that.

N1 I converted Skittles, N2 benga, N3 hotshot (when scum targeted him and he came dead as enthralled), N4 LoVo and N5 (this night) Minister Masket.

I find it amusing that no one suspected me the whole game. Even DDS sent me a PM on 31.08. which said "For the record, I'm utterly shocked that no one has suspected you at all."

Yeah, really good game, first one that I'm actually proud of.

As I already said

N1-Skittles - that was like a punch in a DDS face, he asked me like three times if I'm sure about Skittles and sounded like not being happy to get Shepard in a cult first night. Chose him only because he was the only to vote for me D1.
N2- benga - I believed his jailor claim so in order to enthrall other people I needed to enthrall him so he can't jail me.
N3- hotshot - I believed his tracker claim as well, he would be the only one who could see me visiting someone else, so it was a priority to get him as well. Too bad he was targeted for a kill that night, wasted enthrallment.
N4- LoVo - Tails turned out to be Valern, Mitch claimed Sparatus, and LoVo claimed Tevos. Since there were not counter claims, I believed them. Took LoVo to find what abilities Council members had.
N5- MM - with all Synthetics dead, I could have picked anyone and ensure a cult win. Didn't pick Doom because I didn't like his play whole game and didn't pick Mitch to prove Doom that Mitch was not enthralled whole game. Between Samlen and MM, I went for MM because of his good kill of Thor. Deserves to win with a cult for that one.

Anyway Doom, you obviously isn't familiar with Mitch's play style, he would lynch his brother just to get someone lynched, lol.
