Nah, I'm definitely Town and Mafia. Only way I'll win is if everybody dies. And with that, I'm going to take a nap. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - VerrKol - 2014-08-06 Olsi Wrote:I was in no way jumping to conclusions, polantaris stated that it might block him in the future and I dont believe an ability which could potentially block people multiple turns is very town like, it seems more fitted for mafia, paralyze a bunch of people and have them crippled. Your vote on me is extremely weak, I've been on Luv's case since yesterday and he seems more suspicious now with his power explained and Polantaris confirming it does last multiple turns. So VerrKol; I ask, what are you gonna do? The multiple turn roleblock is true, does that seem like a town ability to you? Fraking lost my first reply! I (mis)interpreted your first post to claim that Polantaris was permanently role blocked. He explicitly stated this was not the case and while he was paralyzed, he was not disabled. Having a permanent role block struck me as far too powerful and highly unlikely at best. Now that we know it's a RNG based activation/cure I have no problem believing it exists as Polantaris claimed or that Luv jumped the gun about it being 100% success rate. Luv's ability is not inherently faction specific, but I will admit it would be more useful for mafia than town. Hypermug Wrote:I feel like what you/other people considering that option is essentially this;"The mafia tried to kill Hypermug, therefore he is mafia." It just doesn't make sense to me. The dual mafia theory would go something like this. Cakesxd and you are both mafia. Mafia wants to make themselves seem innocent. Cakes completely fabricates the unfulfilled compulsion to attack you. This makes both him and you appear innocent, but short of the controller coming forward, there is no way for anyone else to verify or disprove what happened. [MENTION=10466]CakesXD[/MENTION]; Maybe I missed it somewhere, but do you have any idea why it failed? Did you attempt to use an ability last night and if so can it target others? The only thing suspicious about this is that we already had target swapper revealed and there has been no indication about why it failed. EDIT: UGH I LOST ALL MY GENERAL QUESTIONS! Are people comfortable revealing if they are evolved (gen 1 context)? I am not. I'm just curious if evolutions will potentially impact game play as the days go by. Something like our "magikarp" will be harmless for now, but devastating later on. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Holypie - 2014-08-06 MasPan Wrote:Or neutral. CakesXD Wrote:Nah, I'm definitely Town and Mafia. Only way I'll win is if everybody dies. Told you so, Mas. Also the only way for Cakes to win is if town wins and then he kills himself, winning with town, or if the mafia has majority and then he kills himself. BAM. Best role.

Or his wincon is that everybody dies, including him. So he has to mark all surviving players and then blow himself up and he wins. This is so on topic.

This implies that either A) my ability cannot target someone, B) I have a late-activating ability or C) I'm just a big, fat, lying Mafioso. At this point, I'm just being cheeky, but it's definitely one of these three. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Olsi - 2014-08-06 At the moment I really dont trust Verrkol or Luv. I say we vote Luv off as his ability is a lot more harmful, if he turns out to be mafia we crunch verrkol too. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Kyrastri - 2014-08-06 oh my god I lost half my responses... meowmixx Wrote:@Kyrastri; yay i love reading your theories wen i wake up <3. also i hate grass tbh, im more of an ice, psychic, ghost chick. I'm glad you enjoy my theories ![]() If you don't mind me asking, what do you mean by the PM? CakesXD Wrote:-laughs maniacally- ... Is that an actual mafia claim? Either you're pulling our legs or you're serious... And I don't know whether it's a really smart or a really dumb mafia ploy if you're serious... MetaSeraphim Wrote:Naturally? Yes. This at least somewhat confirms that our moves are naturally learnable (mine is), unless someone wants to point out that their move is a TM move. xBTAx still has a point that it's possible that our pokemon and move names are flavour stretched to fit each role. Hypermug Wrote:Do you mind expanding on this? As I already said earlier, I agree that what Cakes said clears nothing, but I don't agree with the sentiment that it leaves me looking more suspicious. I didn't receive any notice of being attacked last night, and I would not have known at all if it wasn't for Cakes posting it here. I feel like what you/other people considering that option is essentially this;"The mafia tried to kill Hypermug, therefore he is mafia." It just doesn't make sense to me. I had a better response but I'm in a rush to recover my main points so: - With the knowledge that you didn't get a PM makes cakes a bit more suspicious - Paired with his weird claims and deliberate ambiguity, he's the most suspicious to me at the moment (I understand where Olsi's getting at, but I kinda believe VerrKol... Or want to believe, anyway) - On the other hand, Cakes claimed he was forced to target Hyper BEFORE Hyper admitted that he didn't know about it, which helps to clear him a little - Either way I'm going to really expand on this list of possibilities today, but I pineappleing lost half of it so I'm kinda pissed off Holypie Wrote:Regarding Luv's power, I think it kind of sucks for the town because if he accidentally hits a townie, they're kind of boned based on RNG. If he manages to find a mafioso, there's no guarantee that they'll actually be blocked. This actually makes it seem more likely that there is another proper roleblocker. As for Luv's alignment, I can't really say but I'd think that the two roleblockers would be on opposite teams.What leads you to believe that there's "no guarantee that they'll actually be blocked"? What's the difference between that and no guarantee that town will actually be blocked? I get that there's more town than mafia, but a mafia doctor (the only role that I can think of that would block something like a roleblock) seems... I don't know. Weird? Maybe niernen's broken the mold, but I somehow really doubt that the mafia has a doctor, because 1) following move theory I haven't picked out a particularly 'sketchy' healing move yet (I'm practically on bulbapedia 24/7 LOL), and 2) we don't know whether town protect even protects against roleblock-type moves, let alone a possible mafia protect. That wording's terrible, but I hope you understand me :c ChaoticCJ Wrote:Also, did I miss something or did Kyrastri; say who she targeted? Sorry, I didn't mention it earlier. I targeted [MENTION=8192]LuvDWayULie[/MENTION];, and off the top of my head this was roughly my line of thinking:
dat kyrastri logic
ChaoticCJ Wrote:I think it is safe to assume parasect. The only thing that concerns me about that and why I had asked who Kyrastri targeted is because if she used rage power or some type of spore on CakesXD, that could be the reason CakesXD felt compelled to attack Hypermug. Then I guess it was she "inhibited" via attract? It is just another theory...although the last one didn't go to well because I missed a big clue, so I don't want to miss another clue... I am totally not agreeing with you :U totally But look above, I targeted Luv. Your theory wouldn't have worked, anyway; my pm said that I missed because I was 'dazed'.

So, my move is also one my Pokemon will naturally learn. And it also does slightly more than it would in the Pokemon games. So we're most likely dealing with Pokemon moves that can be learned naturally, but have been mutated slightly. A mafia doctor makes no sense, since the town rarely has kill abilities unless there's a revenge killer (which I doubt would exist here). It's also a one shot which doesn't really make a mafia doctor have much point (and also negates the severity of the revenge kill).

I say we vote Luv off as his ability is a lot more harmful, if he turns out to be mafia we crunch verrkol too.that just seems to be a very weird thing to do to me, normally if the between the choice of two people if one was town we would go after the other, not both no matter what. plus i honestly can't really see any connection luv and verr have, i feel like you're trying really hard to get possibly innocent people voted off which appears scummy to me, so with that i am placing my vote on you. [Vote]Olsi Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Olsi - 2014-08-06 TheBirds Wrote:that just seems to be a very weird thing to do to me, normally if the between the choice of two people if one was town we would go after the other, not both no matter what. plus i honestly can't really see any connection luv and verr have, i feel like you're trying really hard to get possibly innocent people voted off which appears scummy to me, so with that i am placing my vote on you. [Vote]Olsi Luv is too suspicious to me with the way he has acted and his ability and I havent seen much of a defense about his innocence. Of course we have plenty of time to debate things. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Holypie - 2014-08-06 Kyrastri Wrote:What leads you to believe that there's "no guarantee that they'll actually be blocked"? What's the difference between that and no guarantee that town will actually be blocked? !?!?!!? Luv's power doesn't guarantee that his target will be blocked because there's only a 25% chance of paralysis interrupting the target's action. This means that if he hits a townie they're at a disadvantage over time, and if he hits a mafioso there's no guarantee that the mafioso's action will be stopped. There isn't a difference, but what I'm saying is that his power is unreliable when we need it and harmful when we don't. I didn't say anything about a mafia doctor, I have absolutely no idea where that idea came from. Ohh wait, did you think I meant that there's an ability that can prevent people from being roleblocked? I was saying that Luv's weird roleblock (also your being dazed) might suggest the presence of a legitimate roleblocker who has a 100% chance of stopping someone's action for a single night. Yeah sorry, bad wording is bad. [MENTION=6616]Olsi[/MENTION]; I don't see any link between Luv and VerrKol either. I'm pretty suspicious of VerrKol for his earlier posts, but now I think I see what he's getting at with your random logical jumps. I don't think [MENTION=7423]TheBirds[/MENTION]; is taking issue with you wanting to off Luv, he's confused about where the hell VerrKol fits in with that.

I say we vote Luv off as his ability is a lot more harmful, if he turns out to be mafia we crunch verrkol too. To be honest, this seems pretty crappy to me. Don't get me wrong, Luv was really weird in the beginning, to the point where things were becoming "unfun," but at the same time, he's been the most transparent with his ability. The fact that he was not 100% correct on its mechanics raises questions, but regardless, we know who is at fault if somebody gets paralyzed now. The downside is that someone could easily lie and say Luv attacked them, and I admit I don't know how to deal with that. I'm still trying to understand the beef with Verrkol. Seemed like a misunderstanding if anything. tl;dr - It just doesn't sound good to say,"let's get rid of both of them." ---- In the back of my mind, I wish certain people would speak up more and give their thoughts. The silence makes me think that they are enjoying watching us target the wrong individuals. Lastly, [MENTION=12295]meowmixx[/MENTION]'s behavior is fishy to me. The continued use of weird posts, and the interest in [MENTION=10411]Kyrastri[/MENTION]'s ability even though it was blocked anyway. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - meowmixx - 2014-08-06 [MENTION=22]Hypermug[/MENTION]; i only have a natural curiosity. am i the only one who is interested in the unown (LOL)?

Someone else will say they got paralyzed. If that's his ability really does, it has a distinct signature of being Luv. If you have two people claiming then one of them is mafia. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Olsi - 2014-08-06 My bad I could say things better, holypie explained it well concerning luv's power. I just dont see it being town and its the best thing we've got. As for verrkol I was suspicious because he defended luv but then stated he didnt really pay attention to what he said earlier because it was hard to get a grasp. But my main suspicion stays on luv for now unless something else comes up. Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins - Holypie - 2014-08-07 Polantaris Wrote:It's pretty easy to refute a Luv attack claim.

Why would anyone claim that for no reason though? I see no advantage of claiming to be paralyzed, and anyway Luv could easily verify it as well.

But yeah, it's not a very smart gambit.[/COLOR] |
