The roles:

Quote


1. MisterMischief

You are Chuck Daly. You are the coach of the "Bad Boy" Pistons that won the NBA Championship in 1989 and 1990, and you led the Dream Team to the gold
in 1992. You are a leader, can manage egos, and are a coaching genius. You created the
infamous "Jordan Rules" to shut down Michael Jordan. You may activate the following ability once each night:

- Defensive Strategy: Target one player. Their ability will have no effect for the upcoming cycle, and their vote is nullified.

In addition, you have the "Jordan Rules." If the target you select is Michael Jordan, then his ability is negated for the rest of the game, and their vote is nullified for the rest of the game. This is permanent unless reversed by another ability. If you happen to target Michael Jordan but then die later, then the Jordan Rules will be lifted.

You are allied with the mafia. You win when the number of townies is equal to the number of mafia and it's impossible for the townies to come back via abilities.

2. Woolly Sheep

You are Dennis Rodman. You're a defensive star but not much of an offensive threat. You have a wild, flamboyant pesonality that lets you go wild. You may activate the following ability once each day:

- Rile the Crowd: PM me one sentence. That will be sent as a message to the whole town.

However, you must describe your hair along with the message, and your hair must change color each day.

You are allied with the mafia. You win when the number of townies is equal to the number of mafia and it's impossible for the townies to come back via abilities.

3. Twitter

You are Yao Ming. You're the tallest player in the NBA and a Chinese superstar. Nonetheless, you're constantly injured and people always say you have "glass
knees," "toddlers are tougher," and the like.

You may activate the following ability once per game, during day or night:
- Rage Quit: Sacrifice yourself. Choose one player. They now become allied with the mafia.

You are allied with the mafia. You win when the number of townies is equal to the number of mafia and it's impossible for the townies to come back via abilities.


4. Xero

their abilities during the subsequent night.

5. Krizzmatik

You are Ron Artest. You go from team to team trying to contribute, but most people think you're just a crazy guy. You probably are. You were infamous for running into the crowd in a brawl with the Pistons. Nowdays, you're an NBA champ with Kobe and the
Lakers. You've got a keen understanding of basketball, but you're not always reliable.

"Kobe passed me the ball and coach and errybody was like don't shoot ron don't shoot ron and I'm like bang 3!"

You may activate the following ability each night:

- Crazy Scan: You may inspect a player and determine his or her alliance. You're not sure if your scan is trustworthy.

6. BlitzPlayer

You are Michael Jordan. You're considered the greatest basketball player ever. As such, the mafia creator has decided to give you the greatest abilities ever. You may activate one of the following abilities each day and one each night:

Fade Away: Your abilities can't be negated for the subsequent period. For example, if you activate this during the day, and someone tries to roleblock you during the night, then they will fail.

Crossover: All abilities that target you are negated for the current day or night.

Buzzer Beater: You may only activate this ability once per game. End the current day or night instantly. No day lynch will occur if activated during the day, and no night kill will occur if used during the night.

Court Vision: Select a post. If any statement in the post is a lie, then I will say that the post is "false." If every statement in the post is true, then I will say
that the post is "true".

9. JiB

You are Tim "Timmy" Duncan. You are considered the best power forward ever, and you're known for your consistent gameplay. You do the same plays all the time, and people call you boring, but you're a winner.

11. Sage

You are Kobe Bryant. You're often criticized as selfish, but in recent years you've been a team player and have been winning championships. Your career was struggling in 05, 06, etc, but you have revived it. Now it's time to do the same for others:

Once per game, activate the following ability:

Revive Career: Target a player who is dead. They will be revived.

You are allied with the town. You win when all mafia players are dead.


12. Skuff [Converted mafia] ==> Candlejack

championnship. For that, you need some solid support. Once per game, activate the following ability:

Double Team: Choose one player. You will become a mason-pair with that
player. That means you can communicate with that person outside of the thread, and
they can write back.

In addition, you have your power:

You are allied with the town. You win when all mafia players are dead.


Days were long but in large open games the day only ends when majority is met, and days sometimes go on for a week or two. I know players are used to have a deadline where whoever has the most votes dies, but I'm hoping we can transition to a set up where you only die once you have the most votes.

Nights were probably longer than need be, but I really wanted to make sure everybody got a chance to get their powers in.

I think the town played very well, and the mafia was okay. The set up was:

4 mafia
12 townies

Mafia had a yakuza [Twitter, pop self and convert] which essentially made it a 4 vs 11 game, which meant 4 vs 9 after Day 2, 4 vs 7 Day 3, and 4 vs 5 day 4 [lynch or lose], if the mislynches occurred. The set up was designed to assist mafia because of the town's relatively stronger powers, but they really weren't:

Krizz was an insane cop, and killed early.
DSS was a doc who didn't utilize his powers enough. I thought Wooden
Trap was a great ability but he didn't activate it.
BlitzPlayer had a terrific power but he did not utilize it.
Toxic' and Aenema'/Cybersword did not utilize their mason power to the fullest.
Yoy and Skuff discussed but Yoy died and Skuff was converted so things went awry.
Skuff didn't use his 2nd power at all, but CJ did in the end. Could've been used better.
drewsliphay made a risky move by claiming on day one, but it was a good call and certainly impressive.
Mikhail had a miller role [which generally sucks], but I gave him coach daly inspection so he could be involved, but MM died too early.
JiB played well but he didn't have any powers to activate so he basically played off the information.
Tenken and Sage made effective uses of their powers and were solid contributors.

As for mafia:

I felt you guys all got yourself lynched lol. MisterMischief's claim on day 1 did him in. Xero's erratic voting day 2 got him. woolly played risky by giving away the scum buddies and it almost worked but he messed up on a later day with just going after skuff, and that did him in. Twitter yak'd so he converted Skuff, who was generally gone. CJ did good for the short time but he chose to press drew and cause suspicion on himself, which was a dangerous play that got himself killed.

I thought it was a pretty good game overall and I hope you guys enjoyed it. I'm hoping to play in some more games before hosting another one but I hope you all will choose to participate again! It was a pleasure modding this game.

You mean when I said "I am town" as requested? It's not like I had much of a choice at that point, if I ignored his request it's easy to paint me scum, and a lie detector that works during the day phase is rare.

yeah, not quite sure why cj chose to silence me there in the end. typically (esp given the situation) a silencing at that point is a mafia power, and a careful town would have wanted to hear me speak my mind. I think silencing me was a clue to me not being mafia and the remaining town picked up on it.

loved the game, glad you think it was good of me to come out with my power early.

Well, I thought Skuff was using his ability in the game, but appearently not (Cause Yoy commented on it and I'm suprised no one even quoted it. It was honestly right after his death). So I figured there wasn't an update about it. So I was just going to be like " look guiz he can't refute, must be mafia." and then wrap the game up. but noooo

I wanted to wait on using the Wooden Trap ability until after I gained a little more intel.
