Papa Smurf is missing. The smurfs must find him. Last they knew, He was meeting with Balthazar under truce. The anti-smurfs claim that papa smurf somehow killed or abducted Balthazar and is now hiding to frame the anti-smurfs for killing papa smurf, in an extremely convoluted plan. The smurfs stand by papa smurf, and claim that the anti-smurfs are trying to pull the same trick, but on them. Clues will be given as to the location, and the first faction to find the papa or balthazar, regardless of whether or not they are living or dead, will get an advantage over the other.

At this point I should note that quoting from your emails to determine alignment is wasted time.

A Kill failed on Mozzy.

Carol is Town

Popey is Scum

It is now Day One.

lordy

Because of late confirm

More importantly, millers and survivors step forward. Similarly, any cop/etc with a guilty result.

Vote: the 14th guy
because his name is invisible.

It's way too soon for cops to claim. Any halfway decent cop can make a case without explicitly revealing their powers.

Any ideas on what this acrostic is all about?

Is Carol is Town an acrostic too? Or perhaps it's the key to solving the first one?

Whatever it is, I was told I probably wouldn't get the reference, so I assume it is based on some inside knowledge/jokes from this mafia community.

I should note that if any of you got an email from popey about "popey is scum" being an acrostic, then you should ignore it. we scrapped that idea.

the message is now: popey is scum, carol is town

the 14th guy is whoever dies first.

Question to mods: Is the 14th role a random role allocated to the spare slot, or is it a role which can be axed if necessary?

*points at post 6*

I would be very surprised if the 14th role was anything important, quite frankly. I can't see the hosts leaving a doc or a cop or a roleblocker, etc slot empty in the knowledge that this could happen. So I'd imagine it's probably town, but something like a VT. Pure speculation though.

Although, given that we only appear to have one attempted kill from last night, I'm intrigued by the prospect that it might actually be an SK. Unlikely, but an interesting possibility.

Or CK and Popey could have randomized his action in the way that a mildly skilled player would do without considering the setup and stuff. That is, randomized roleblocking, randomized cop, skilled player protection, or whatever.

all actions were counted as abstained if not in on time.

Rot posted in DGOL and hasn't yet posted here, maybe he is cautght up in a conversation via email...

I'm flattered, Mr. Assassin.

-Um well, first things first, I'm hated, so people need to be careful about that.

Also, I'm not a miller/survivor and other people should come forward and say what they are.

I'm loved but that's my own doing. I loved myself last night. I don't know who hated Herr last night but that makes it clear to me that there's another reporter.

Another possibility: Herr and I were bus-driven which would explain (a) why I was targeted instead of Herr which never happens and (b) why I didn't receive confirmation that I loved myself to climax. It leaves open, however, why my self-loving would turn into loathing.

No, I'm pretty sure there's another reporter out there.

I was emailed that Popey was scum, anyone else? Yes I know it's in the OP as well.

Um no I'm hated by birth, no one made me hated last night.

Can you only love people, Mozzy? Is that what a reporter is?

I can loath and self-loath. For now, though, just to be safe, I loved myself all night long. It was a pretty great Night and not just because I didn't die. A reporter is basically a player who can choose each night to love or hate a player in the game by writing a praising or scathing article in the Town paper (whether an actual article is written varies).

I have been told that statuses of loved/loathed players will not be mod-confirmed. While I'm willing to test my ability and therefore prove my role (if not my alignment), I would rather not. You see, to prove my role we'd have to put me at L-1 (L-0 for every other player) which leaves me far too vulnerable to a lynch.

I am Reporter Smurf: a reporter. I shouldn't be much of a target tonight so I'm glad I survived Night-0; I'll hopefully survive the rest of the game as well. We know I'm not the killer and we know for a fact that there is a killer (unless there's a compulsive/blind-firing vigilante somewhere) so we should probably get a few claims going.

Oh, and by the way, I'm not a miller or a survivor and am in fact a Townie.

Vote: Lordy

Mozzy... I have absolutely no clue what you just said.

1) You can loath and self-loath, and then you can love?
2) What is this town paper?
3) What does loving/loathing do besides preventing players from being mod-confirmed?
4) What is mod-confirmed?
5) What is L-1 and how would that prove your role?
6) Why did you vote Lordy?
7) Self-loving turns into loathing?

I've never played a game with a role anything close to what you're describing and I'm having trouble comprehending.

I got the popey is scum message too, at the end of my role email. Vote: Popey, anyone?

1) You can loath and self-loath, and then you can love?

I assume he can either loath or love a player each night, including himself, thus making him hated or loved the next day.

2) What is this town paper?

A reporter often works with flavour, thus a "newspaper" posted by the host during the day. We saw this in Castletown, and one was present in my Mickey Mouse Mafia, without the ability to love and loath (though Pulse never used his role, sadly).

3) What does loving/loathing do besides preventing players from being mod-confirmed?

Loved: requires 1 more vote to lynch. Hated: requires 1 less vote to lynch.

4) What is mod-confirmed?

What is love? No srsly, mod-confirmed information is information given by the host, assuming the host doesn't lie.

5) What is L-1 and how would that prove your role?

L-1: a person who is at L-1 has a number of votes that will have him lynched if one more vote is cast. He loved himself last night, so if we place exactly 8 votes on him today, we'll see that he'll still be at L-1.

6) Why did you vote Lordy?

I assume randomness, which is the best way to start a day 1, but I will leave that to Mozzy to explain.

7) Self-loving turns into loathing?

lolno

Sweet Jesus Alex, I thought you actually knew some mafia terms.

Thanks...

I know mafia, I just don't know this particular forum's subculture seeing as how the only game I've ever played here was the Diablo Mafia that I was just lynched Day 1 in. I couldn't find anything similar to what Mozzy was describing on MafiaScum either.

I voted Lordy because we have nothing to go on and he already had a vote on him (not really because Weemickey doesn't know how to vote). By the way, I've used the word loathed in place of hated because it's similar to loved. There's no other reason besides alliteration.

WRP basically explained everything but lemme just do it again so you hear it from me. Line by line:

I can loath and self-loath. For now, though, just to be safe, I loved myself all night long. It was a pretty great Night and not just because I didn't die. A reporter is basically a player who can choose each night to love or hate a player in the game by writing a praising or scathing article in the Town paper (whether an actual article is written varies).

I can make it so that a player requires one fewer or one more vote to be lynched, depending on if I hate or love a player. This player can be myself as well. I chose to love myself because I could only trust myself to be Town, having had no time to gather information on the other players. The Town got lucky because nobody died last night. My role is called a "reporter"; the usual flavor behind my role (which is not entirely present here in-game but is present in-email) involves writing an opinionated article about a player.

I have been told that statuses of loved/loathed players will not be mod-confirmed. While I'm willing to test my ability and therefore prove my role (if not my alignment), I would rather not. You see, to prove my role we'd have to put me at L-1 (L-0 for every other player) which leaves me far too vulnerable to a lynch.

The moderator will not confirm that a player requires one vote more or fewer than usual. I am willing--if the Town feels it is absolutely necessary--to prove my role and my action last Night but I fear that it would lead to a lynch pushed through by the mafia, serial killer, or other scum player(s). This is because the only way to prove my role today is by putting my at one-vote-to-lynch which, if I am telling the truth, would appear to be just enough votes to successfully lynch me if I was not self-loved.

I am Reporter Smurf: a reporter. I shouldn't be much of a target tonight so I'm glad I survived Night-0; I'll hopefully survive the rest of the game as well. We know I'm not the killer and we know for a fact that there is a killer (unless there's a compulsive/blind-firing vigilante somewhere) so we should probably get a few claims going.

My name is Reporter Smurf and my role name is reporter. My role is relatively unimportant and the scum wants the cop and doctor dead so they will search for them and avoid killing me. Therefore I am not a target tonight or for the rest of the game. We know that there is a killer because somebody attempted to kill me. But there remains the unlikely possibility that a Townie was responsible for the attack last night: a very slim chance. We should therefore begin by getting some claims from players.

Oh, and by the way, I'm not a miller or a survivor and am in fact a Townie.

I win with the Town. If I am investigated, I will appear to be a Townie.

I'm not doing this again for any of my posts. I don't dumb it down. I just like Pepsidude.

Quoted from Mozzy:

I loved myself last night.

OHGODWHY.

I am neither a miller nor a survivor, nor was I informed of any particular actions on me last night.

I was hesitant about this; as it could seem as OMGUS to some, but oh well.
I am highly doubtful of Mozzy for the following reasons;
Even though it was clear in Herr's post that he wasn't targeted for a hate, he still used this to allow himself to be counter-claimed.
he used this basis to demand what is essentially a mass claim; while not allowing us to confirm his role. I say we reach the L-1 on Mozzy(L-0 normally), and if he's lynched then good. if not, then good. if he's speed-lynched, then we lynch whoever cast the lynching vote; or at the very least get a convincing claim out of them.

UnVote
Vote: Mozzy

So I'd imagine it's probably town, but something like a VT.

Yeah this was my thought too. I understand that player 14 will be replaced in, but I doubted that CK and Popey would leave a major role (either scum or town) out because it will severely affect balance for potentially the first three phases. So it's most likely a VT.

I too got the note about "Popey is scum", didn't understand it and CK was very vague when I emailed back questions. I agree that trying to lynch him might reveal something (although this doesn't explain anything about CK being town).

Vote: Popey

Am keeping an eye on the Mozzy/WRP situation too but at the moment I want to get a bit more information in play, hence the Popey vote.

Also Mozzy(supposing you are what you claim you are), you would be a primary target for scum. they know that you're a townie, the other option is blind firing, you could be the reason they win or lose later in the game, similar to a noble in a way. as scum, I would kill you over a blind fire any day. or night.

I voted Lordy because we have nothing to go on and he already had a vote on him (not really because Weemickey doesn't know how to vote).

Either you don't know how to spell or your talking about WRP's mafia. Anyway I'm not Weemicky, I'm Tadashi.

Your also contradicting yourself because your saying you voted Lordy because he already has a vote. That's your main reason but then your also saying that my vote doesn't count, if it doesn't count then Lord has already no votes on him.

Also if I don't know how to vote how come your copying me?

Don't try be smart if you can't even be smart enough to pull it off, dumbass.


I'm not a miller, survivor or anything of the sort.

WRP's mafia?

btw I'm not a miller nor a survivor.

my Mickey Mouse Mafia

Pretty sure it was decided that you are Weemickey.

Quoted from GoSailing:

Tadashi is WeeMicky.

EDIT: To be clear, that's not a guess.

Your also contradicting yourself because your saying you voted Lordy because he already has a vote. That's your main reason but then your also saying that my vote doesn't count, if it doesn't count then Lord has already no votes on him.

I'm not contradicting myself. You tried to vote Lordy and failed because you're mildly retarded. I decided that, despite this, Lordy was as good a place to start as anybody else so I added my vote. You'll note that I did mine correctly.

Also if I don't know how to vote how come your copying me?

Because it's essentially random.

Don't try be smart if you can't even be smart enough to pull it off, dumbass.

You have been called out by an HG moderator for being a smurf account of Weemickey. You continue to deny this as though we would believe you. So perhaps you shouldn't try to be smart, eh?

We should not try to test my role by bringing me so close to a lynch. While I'm not a particularly special target for Nights, any Town lynch is good for the scum. You bring me too close to a lynch and then I get lynched by some idiot like Weemickey or one of the scum. Now you've lost your lead from last Night.

Lordy is lying. He claims that I called for a mass claim. I called for a "few" claims. The word [i[few, in case you were unaware, is the exact opposite of the word mass in this case.

I'm now not voting Lordy as a semi-random shot in the dark. I'm now voting Lordy to get a claim or, if he refuses, to lynch him.

Tadashi is Weemickey.

http://www.heavengames.com/cgi-bin/forums/display.cgi?action=st&fn=50&tn=3&st=2727#post2728

I'm going to be gone for a few hours. Try not to do anything stupid like following Weemickey's advice. Lordy should be pressured. WRP and I are not connected in any way. WRP answered some of Pepsi's questions and I also answered Pepsi's questions. If that's a connection, you guys are already too used to playing so deep in the dark as Serial Killer Mafia.

I can assure you I'm not Weemicky though, and you yourself are mildly retarded because you still can't spell right.

I am the creator of Tadashi and Weemicky Tadashi is not Weemicky, Tadashi is an account and so is Weemicky, they arn't the same. So I'm not lying to you or anything so stop with the accusartions and apology is awaiting .

Also I'm pretty sure you don't have to say the word "vote" for your vote to be counted. You just have to bold.

So yeh stop calling me "weemickey" because your wrong I'm not Weemickey, I don't even know who the hell he is.

A creator! Like God! :O

Micky, while on CFM people just bold it like idiots, here "Vote:" is required.

No, you very much do need to type:

Unvote: Lordy
Vote: Weemickey

In order for your vote to be counted by (most) moderators. It needs to include the word vote, the voted's name, and be in bold. I have been playing mafia for a very long time here; I think I know the rules.

12. All other standard rules apply.

So, Weemickey, I think you should claim. You can't hold a decent argument and you got very flustered for no reason at all. Me thinks the lady doth protest too much, if you know what I mean, Weemickey. You're getting spooked over nothing which leads me to believe that you may have something to hide.

Lordy and Weemickey are my targets for tonight. I'll be "hating" one of them tonight unless we come up with a better lead. This should not only prove my role (to them at least, though as scum they may deny it) but also make it easier to lynch them come tomorrow.

Oh, and, btw, that was an actual vote. I'm moving on to Weemickey because I don't want to get into a nonsensical "argument" with Lordy. I'll leave that to Rot or someone else who has enough energy to deal with him.

Guys, I don't think we should get a claim from Lordy. I mean, when he's town he f*cks up his claim and gets lynched, so we may as well have a cop investigate him tonight.

One of the reasons I switched my vote. Not the biggest reason, though. Okay, I really do have to leave now.

I am fine with Mozzy targeting me tonight.

UnVote

Mozzy gtf. Can I request Mozzy being replaced/modkilled for trolling?

first, it's GTFO, and second, no. play nice.

I'd say GTF as in Get to F***

Can he at least have a warning or something?

no. cause I'm reading it, and I'm not seeing any trolling. I will warn against all trolling, but I don't see him doing any.

IF you troll I'll make you hated and stuff or something.

He is repeatedly calling me "Weemickey"

You are the same person as Weemickey. He's not doing anything wrong.

yeah... that's not trolling. we all know that you're weemicky.

He's saying it on purpose though and it's not Weemickey, it's Weemicky

Children, children, play nice!

I actually have a better course of action:

Vote:Rot
