*"If only Poirot was here, then we know more effectively who the perpetrators were." commented Vesper as he paced the rail car. "Unfortunately, he was in his sleeping compartment near the front of the train."* :silverweed

Welcome back, Chibiscuit. I stalked your posts (one must do anything to win Mafia :P) and I can see that you've been inactive throughout the whole site. Knowing also that your activity fluctuates, I'll accept that you were probably gone because you were busy.

Speaking of such, maybe we should tell [CALL]Soren[/CALL] that he needs to post.

(It's worth noting that I saw him look at this thread twice, when the game first started, but he never posted. Just pointing this out because it's odd. It's one thing to go inactive on the forum, but another to visit the thread without saying anything... I can see this being the result of two reasons:
1. Soren is Town and didn't know what to say.
2. Soren is Mafia and wanted to be careful with his posts, so he procrastinated.)

This combined with the only clues I've got - the story thing and the fact that nobody else jumps out as suspicious - makes me leans Mafia on Soren. However, he hasn't even posted yet, so I'm not voting him. I need some content from Soren before I can make a good decision. Remember that we have only one chance in this game. Let's PLEASE think this through before deciding.

~~

In response to Chibiscuit:

I don't have anything to say to your interpretation - I don't want to overthink the story. However:
Chibisuit
 
Soo I think that's it for now? Like I said, I'm not sure who the mafia is but I don't think it's Crackers AND Vesper or Brighty AND Soren.

I think it's risky to choose pairs. Here, I see that you're saying who you think are NOT Mafia together, but the implication seems to be that by eliminating pairs that are unlikely, we can get to the Mafia team.

This is something that's debated in the Mafia forum, with most things I've read saying that it's not a good idea. Finding one Mafia is hard enough - we have a 50% chance by guessing - but the margin of error increases if we try to find both together. There are more assumptions to work with (assuming that BOTH people are Mafia), and if one is wrong, the whole pair falls apart.

I don't think you're suspicious for this, but I disagree with your reasoning.

My suggestion is that instead of trying to find the Mafia team, we figure out who among us five is most likely to be Mafia, then vote for that person.

I have contacted Søren and here is what happened:

Discord chatroom
 
Chipster: But Soren, there's something I have to ask you.
Søren: Sure
Chipster: Are you still interested in the mafia game on Fiver's Honeycomb?
Søren: OH
I forgot about that
What's going on in it?
I can still play if you want
I'll need to catch up though
Chipster: Well, you won't have much to catch up with.
It has been a bit inactive, but it was recently revived.
Søren: Oh ok
Chipster: You're the only player who hasn't posted yet since the game started.
Søren: I'll get on it today
Though I can't at this moment, I'm about to leave
Chipster: All right, Soren.
Thanks.

BUMP

[CALL]Bright Side[/CALL] [CALL]Chibiscuit[/CALL] [CALL]Crackers[/CALL] [CALL]Vesper[/CALL]

Unfortunately, it seems that Soren will not be able to participate :( Should we keep going without him, or should we get a replacement player?

[CALL]Chibiscuit[/CALL] hasn't been active either. IRL is probably keeping her busy :blackberry3

I don't know how to go on without Soren. It would upset the balance, whether he's Town or Mafia, if he's killed.

If he's Town, then it'd be 2 versus 2, and technically already a Mafia victory :p
If he's Mafia, it'd be 3 versus 1. We could keep playing. It would just suck for the other Mafia :D

And I don't know how you can answer this, Chipster, without spoiling anything. Maybe we can start a new game; this one's lost its drive.

:/ I hate to say it, but I have to agree with Brighty. This game has lost it's fun energy it used to have. Maybe a new could suffice for this. What do you think Chipster?

You both make valid points. I guess it would be better at if we stopped this game and started a new one instead.

Looking through everyone's posts, it seems that Soren would have been voted out, resulting in...a Mafia victory.

Everyone's roles
 

  • Bright Side: Mafia
  • Chibiscuit: Mafia
  • Crackers: Townie
  • Soren: Townie
  • Vesper: Townie

I'll post a list of the clues and explanations later this week.

Good game. Thank you, Chipster, for hosting. It was a lot of fun, and had IRL allowed members to be more active, it would've lasted :)

Thank you Brighty :) I really appreciate this.

Clues and explanations
Quote:
 
On one bench, Bright Side and Chibiscuit were having a discussion about philosophy.

This is the first clue, pointing to Bright Side and Chibiscuit both being mafia. This clue was less obvious than the others because Crackers and Soren, and me and Vesper, were also having discussions. Also, Bright Side and Chibiscuit really did discuss philosophy on the forum.

Quote:
 
After a while, Chibiscuit expressed a need to go to the lavatory.

This allows Chibiscuit to get away from the group, and since the lavatory is in a smaller compartment, she can detach the wagons without anyone noticing.

Quote:
 
Suddenly, he heard the door open behind him; it was Crackers.
-"Brighty told me she wanted to see my purse, it looks somewhat like a chicken."

Vesper was right: this was an attempt by Bright Side to get Crackers out of the way so she could carry out her plan. Also, Crackers really owns such a purse in real life.

Quote:
 
Meanwhile in the passenger car, Soren had put on his earphones and had lied down on the bench with his eyes closed. Brighty absent-mindedly looked out the window. The view was amazing, she considered incorporating something like this in her novel. She turned on her laptop and started typing. Chipster, however, got up and started to make his way towards the baggage car.
-"You all right, Chipster?" Brighty asked.
-"I'm fine," Chipster replied. "Nothing a little fresh air can't fix."
Brighty nodded, and soon went back to her novel, seemingly absorbed in her task.

This clue was quite subtle. It shows that Brighty would be more likely than Soren to notice something unusual happening. Since Soren is listening to music and his eyes are closed, he doesn't realize it when Brighty leaves until after it's too late. Brighty, however, notices that I leave, and would probably also notice it if Soren tried to leave.

Quote:
 
A loud scream could be heard everywhere in the two wagons, coming from the platform at the end of the baggage car, where Chipster was.

Everywhere is everywhere, including the lavatory, but later...

Quote:
 
-"Well, I'm back," Chibiscuit said, walking out of the compartment containing the lavatory. "Hey, what's going on? Where's Chipster?"

Chibiscuit is seemingly unaware of everything that happened. She should have heard my scream. That was another clue.

Any other “clues” the players may have found, aren't clues at all. Feel free to ask if you have any questions.


Thanks everyone for playing! :)

Anyone who wishes to host a third Mafia game is free to do so.

Fascinating! Thanks, Chipster :)

It's hard to host Mafia because there are few players. You know what I'd like to play? A one-round, three-player game. Two Town, one Mafia. That would be intense, quick, and fuuuun :D

Idea: a one-round, three-player Mafia game without a host.

We ask someone who's not playing to randomize the players' names using this. The first name in the randomized list is the Mafia. The person then PMs the three players with the role and has to do nothing else.

The players set up the thread, vote someone out, and afterwards reveal roles.

I say this because I want to PLAY, not host :D But there are not many people interested. Right now it's me and Vesper; I can guess who may want to join next ;) What do you say?

I totally approve of Brighty's idea. It sounds great :)

I don't know if I'm going to join though...I might host ;)

Thank you, Chipster! :)

But if you host, someone else needs to join :D Let's wait; perhaps Crackers or Chibiscuit or someone else may be interested.
