[MAFIA] Death on the Independent Station - Day 5

By BiggsIRL, in Star Wars: Armada Off-Topic

I can confirm that the identity scanner is a role cop ability. I have one. But I don't think mine is one - shot. Or if it is, I wasn't told about it.

Speaking of which, anyone have any interesting items they're willing to trade for an identity scanner. Or spice. I don't judge.

Bike Stunts, Visovics, what are your win cons?

I need to perform three operations and then yeah just survive

Mad and Gink...need those claims, you are sticking out like sore thumbs without them.

Just to clear the air, my role is Self-Aligned Bounty Hunter. My win con is to be on the bandwagon of a scum lynch.

Good. That doesn't really need coordination then - and your ability works best uncoordinated, so the scum don't know where to hit to avoid it.

Same boat as Vics then. Gotta find one first. Want my identity scanner? Available now for a low, low price of just one of your items

This is a thing. All the claims so far have been well constructed, usually with actual flavor titles like Customs Officer and Demolitions Expert. I don't think I said mine but I'm the Mad Doctor.

Anyone who knows these players like Caldias or Cninj better, do you think they're capable (or likely if one were to assume scum) of false claiming well?

Frankly, with the flavor as strong as it is, I'd expect Biggs to give them fake claims that match the flavor.

Fair point. I suppose something like a "renegade customs officer" could be scum as well, and its much easier to just fakeclaim alignment.

Also Gnips has not actually fully claimed yet. I just looked through his posts and all he's done is allude to being "town". At this point his role would have to be super OP to be worth hiding, considering a couple power roles have already come out. Is he saying he's just vanilla townie? I'm also not sure about the balance of there being 1 townie. Does scum win when they kill him? If not then what's the point of there being a townie at all? He's also been asking for claims quite a bit which my gut says is fishy, but at this point all these claims having already been made makes that seem a little less weird. Still asking for everyone to reveal their secrets while not actually revealing himself feels off to me.

Yup that's what I said about Gnips.

I totally believe Cal and I could come up with pseudo flavors. :)

I cannot speak for him, but I didn't make mine up. But there is no way I can think of to prove that, unless that ID thing doesn't require traveling to my room.

Oh, and Biggs said this was not going to be balanced. That is why we are coming up with these crazy theories.

Not quite the same boat. Vis needs to night kill one?

I need to get one lynched

As for items, I don't have anything to trade, hence why I was so confused about all the items earlier. Maybe you should just use your scanner?

I need to check later (it would be too slow on my phone now), but wasn't ninja also confused about items? But now he has boobie traps?

Yeah you're pretty much diamond plated. It'd need to be a blind faith lynch on you.

I pretty much haven't made any real votes this whole game besides a dumb one on mad so I'm just gonna start it off, I think Gnips is way more suspicious than Caldias

##vote GhostofNobodyInParticular

And yeah I know its not balanced but I'm hoping there's some logic behind it, not seeing the logic behind a single townie

Boobies are just his ability, if I'm reading his role right.

My win requires me to come up with 2 more items. While I'd like to make our so that all of us who survive can win, I'm going to look after my own win first. So trading the identity scanner is something that helps you and vics, as well as me. Just issuing it myself actively hurts me own ability to win, because if we find and kill all the scum before I trade 3 times, I lose

Well to be fair, I think I have a right to know your roles, but you should recall that I wasn't outright asking for them. Anyways, I'm the Station's Owner. Ya'll are on my turf! Oh the security deposits that will be emptied what with all the death! Terrible for business, terrible!

Anyways, so yeah. Station owner, I can hammer somebody in the last 24 hours of the day.

So it's a day action?

Yes.

So you, myself, and JJ can work together. You find a scum and kill him, we find the other(s) and lynch 'em.

So no one else has items? All item owners are now dead and no one can pick the items dropped?

looks like we have an alliance here, I'm looking for a payment, so is JJ, and you want your station free from them. DEAL

Oh snap Gnips with the day action. I was wondering what that would be. And yeah @JJs Juggernautmy booby traps are just part of my ability I think. I set them every night. They went off last night.

Anybody else see the irony of Bike voting for Gnips?

The doc voting for the owner who can kick him off the station? Or something else?

Yeah, and if his power is real, he'd protect you but then you can't talk **** about him. It hilarious.

**** Biggs.
