Right, first the complete 9-player setup, with a couple comments:
Mafia - La bohème (Puccini) - killing method: consumption - Kaon
You are Puccini's La bohème, in its entirety. Naturally, this makes you part of the mafia, along with Tick ("Carefully on tiptoe stealing", H.M.S. Pinafore). If you perform the nightly kill, the person will show up as having "died of consumption". Naturally, you may speak with Tick at night, but not during the day.
You may find the knowledge useful that there is not a song from the musical Rent in the current cast. Then again, you may not (but it's still true).
You win when opera has taken back the theater.
Kaon would have received the following PM if Tick had died first:
With tick's elimination, you realize you will have to redouble your efforts to eliminate the upstart musicals.
Thankfully, you've been able to save some of tick's possessions...
Each night, in addition to your kill, you may choose a player's dressing room to leave a Gilbert and Sullivan work and recording in. This may lead people investigating that person to come to a false conclusion.
Mafia ability cop - "Carefully on tiptoe stealing", H.M.S. Pinafore (investigates for ability). Killing method: caught - Tick
You are "Carefully on tiptoe stealing", from Gilbert and Sullivan's H.M.S. Pinafore. While some may consider you to be a musical (and, yes, this may be aided by the fact I've quoted another G&S work in the signup thread), you are, most properly, light opera. You are, therefore, mafia, along with Kaon (Puccini's La bohème). If you perform the nightly kill, the person will show up as "caught". Naturally, you may speak with Kaon at night, but not during the day.
In addition, you may use your ability to sneak around at night on nights you are not killing, to learn the ability another person has. For instance, if you investigated yourself, the result would be "Mafia ability cop". Unfortunately, by the time you reach your conclusion, it'll be too late to share this information with your partner Kaon before the start of the day.
You win when opera has taken back the theater.
Tick received the following PM when Kaon died:
With Kaon's elimination, you realize you will have to redouble your efforts to eliminate the upstart musicals.
Tonight, I need you to pick an additional kill method. It doesn't have to be related to HMS Pinafore, but it'd be nice if it fit the theme as a whole somehow.
Tonight and in future nights, you now have a choice; you can either:
* Only kill someone, in which case you will use the kill method you chose
or
* Kill someone and investigate someone else, in which case you will use the "caught" kill method.
Your call.
Song name cop - Do You Hear the People Sing?, Les Misérables - Kurupt
You are "Do You Hear the People Sing?", from the musical Les Misérables. You do, indeed, hear the people sing at night; in fact, you're familiar enough with their song to identify it. Each night, you may eavesdrop on one person, listen to them, and find out what song they are.
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
Doctor - There's No Cure Like Travel, Anything Goes - Lacero
You are "There's No Cure Like Travel", from the musical Anything Goes. You're right, too; each night, you may send someone on a (brief) vacation, saving them from any harm that might beset them that night. It doesn't really count if you're just sending yourself out, though.
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
Blocker - Grizabella: the Glamour Cat, Cats - La Paloma
You are "Grizabella: the Glamour Cat", from the musical Cats. You may, each night, sing "Memory" for someone, distracting them from performing whatever task they were about that night.
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
... comment is 1302 characters too long? Bah :p More in the next post, then...
Vig - Grow For Me, Little Shop of Horrors - killing method: missing - Jozline
You are "Grow For Me", from the musical Little Shop of Horrors (and not either film version, for the sake of argument and the theme). Each night, you may (but do not have to) feed one person to Audrey II; if you do, they will show up the next day as "missing". Of course, they won't ever come back from that...
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
This kill method is an intentional reference to the same method used by the SK in the first pirate mafia (old numbering Mafia 3). What can I say, fond memories.
Morning Message Leaver - Oh What a Beautiful Mornin', Oklahoma! - MystikEel
You are "Oh What a Beautiful Mornin'", from the musical Oklahoma. While there is, of course, not a true morning on-stage, you're still ready before everyone else when the curtain is about to rise again, and you may, if you wish, leave a short (20 words or less) note tacked to the stage side of the curtain, to be posted when day starts. You may not mention your own name in this note.
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
Semi-miller - Betrayed, The Producers - James
You are "Betrayed", from the musical The Producers. While you're out there to sing and perform to the best of your ability, you have no unusual powers.
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
I'm guessing it's relatively apparent why I considered this role to be a "semi-miller"; no alignment cops, but "Betrayed" is a heck of a result to give a cop, and the opening flavor text was an intentional reference towards this as well.
Townie - Run Away!, Spamalot - lost_horizon
You are "Run Away!", from the musical Spamalot. While you're out there to sing and perform to the best of your ability, you have no unusual powers.
You win when all threats to the theater are eliminated.
Night choices in a little while (a few hours, though, not a few minutes), although I suspect an observer could work out everything except a few night 1 choices. Probably more thoughts at that point, too.
wow that was quick.
Good game, more like that please ![]()
For the record
Night 1: Protected MystikEel (Guilt over lynching you first day last time ![]()
Night 2: Protected Kurupt.
Tick, was it just blind luck you got the doc night 2? ![]()
Night 1:
Mafia - Kaon kills James (fails after modkill), tick investigates La Paloma (blocker).
Cop - Kurupt listens to Kaon (La bohème)
Doc - Lacero protects MystikEel
Vig - Jozline does nothing
Message - MystikEel leaves no note
Blocker - LP blocks James (fails after modkill).
Night 2:
Mafia - tick kills Lacero, investigates Jozline (vig).
Cop - Kurupt listens to LP ("Grizabella: the Glamour Cat" ).
Doc - Lacero protects Kurupt
Vig - Jozline kills MystikEel (blocked).
Message - MystikEel leaves no note
Blocker - LP blocks Jozline.
Night 3:
Mafia - tick kills Kurupt with alternate method (blocked).
Cop - Kurupt listens to tick.
Vig - Jozline kills tick.
Blocker - LP blocks tick.
hehe, I don't think you fooled many peple night 3 tick
)
Good quick game ![]()
I was rather suprised and disasappointed that y'all were so quick to lynch MystikEel tho - I mean, you even discussed the possibility that Jozline's Vig-ing had been blocked. Surely y'all could've hung on for another few hours to see if I could confirm that?
I think that the odds were rather stacked against the poor old Mafia tho' - particularly by the last night.
I did think that it was a nice twist that my role could've been considered both a character and a song, which could've landed me in hot water. I very nearly made a bit of a fuss about that when Kurupt claimed, in fact, before I remembered that Cats also has a song called "Grizzabella the Glamor Cat"...
Fun game Araltaln! I think the deadlines really helped too!
![]()
Awwww, you blocked me! (Big meaniehead!)
*whaps you with a huge man-eating plant with one hell of a singing voice*
But I guess you did a good job...I woulda killed a townie. (not that she lived, but hey, what can ya do?)
That game was way fun, thanks Araltaln! Even though I never got to properly kill someone...at least not until said person played me for a complete tool first ![]()
*cheers*
OK, more later, back to packing! and packing! and training my new replacement! and more packing! and getting my ass kicked tomorrow night by my pissed off dad when he gets here and I'm not all packed! and more packing!
(Do I seem stressed at all?)
...mmmaybe!
Well, I was pretty sure you weren't the Doctor...
And you seemed a little antsy about my case against Kaon...
...But really, considering that my Blocking action apparently consisted of hanging around my target and singing "Memory" at them all night, well, mostly I targeted you and James 'cos I figured you'd be fun to annoy! ![]()
Tick, I wonder if you thought you'd win by your actions of day 2? After making us Lynch a Townie, it was pretty clear we'd gang up on you.
But yay for townies!

I don't understand why everyone's saying tick made you lynch MystikEel. His wasn't the last vote, he didn't lie about any of his investigations (and, incidentally, he actually /had/ those investgations, despite some thoughts in PMs otherwise--did the fact he pegged two abilities before they were claimed count for nothing?).. can't the town take some responsibility for what they did? ![]()
yeah i didn't really think you would necessarily game up on me today, i felt I could perhaps sway lp and jozline into voting kurupt over me. and i was giong to use my alternate kill method, and then perhaps say jozline did it and was lying about the little shop of horrors, but then I'd have to explain my vig result.
But yeah, the fact is I had 2 investigation results, that would be confirmed, from 2 nights. on one of those nights we had a kill, you would have had to explain how I could have 2 results if i was the one killing people.
All I did was said joz was a vig, lp was a blocker, and we already knew kurupt was a cop, so by default mystikeel had to be mafia, which is why you were all so quick to jump on the bandwagon.
I don't think LP claiming to have blocked jozline would have changed that either.
and lacero, I knew there was a good chance you were the doc. jozlines actions didn't strike me as being doc'y at all. and i left lp alive so they could backup my claim when I said they were blocker.
would be not point me coming out and saying "im a cop, lp is a blocker" when lp is already dead.
ALso, when kaon was getting lynched and decided to come out and blow my info on lp i nearly screamed! and i'm glad he took my subtle hint to shut up ![]()
if kaon is mafia he is most likely lying, if he is telling the truth do we really want an important role outed for no reason?
-
oh and for bonus points, who can figure out how I told kaon that lp was a blocker
If the mafia killed them also surely we would be told otherwise its a bit dumb. As they would be normal killed not just a kill, so.... i reckon maybe well done doc, or perhaps a blocker succeeded with a block. Either that or something bizarre we wont be able to figure out for a while. And while we are at it vote lacero for faulty er... induction/reasoning.
It can be garnered from my first post.
Can't really ask for a sig and then not have one now, can i?I meant that he did a good job in tricking me. I was actually giving him his due. Sorry if that was misunderstood guys.
Supa-green!It was a nice game. My fluke investigation on Kaon on night 1 probably helped the Town a lot. Tick played well, as i didn't suspect him, unlike last game, till the last day.

Yeah, I thought tick was playing pretty slick. Nice one! ![]()
I would've definately gone in to bat for MystikEel if given the chance tho' - as far as I can tell the case against her was basically "The vig tried to kill her but failed, so therefore she must be Godfather." Which I knew was BS.
And I really didn't buy the possibility of 2 goodguy cops in a game this teensy, so would've wanted us to lynch one of our claimed cops instead. Which probably would've been tick, since Kaon had hinted that the Mafia had investigated me night one.
But then, hindsight is always 100% ain't it.
1000 miles from the chimera I chase...tickoh and for bonus points, who can figure out how I told kaon that lp was a blocker
Ummm...I figure he already knew who you'd target and you'd pre-planned to namedrop the role details, in a pre-arranged order (say, the 2nd role you mentioned).
Altho' reading Kaon's post, it seems that he picked up on your "something bizarre" comment instead, so maybe I've got your cunning plan all wrong...
1000 miles from the chimera I chase...yeah he knew who i had targetted, i gave him the info blocker in my very first post.
my case against mystikeel wasn't so much she survived a vig kill, i knew you had probably blocker her, rather that everyone else had claimed strong roles that were able to be be backed up with proof.
My prolbem was going to be claiming a musical, as HMS Pinafore is a light opera, not a musical and I figured you'd pick up on that pretty quickly if I claimed. SO i was happy the day ended without me having to.
Actually, I probably would have missed that clue.
G & S, as Araltaln already said, tend to get lumped in as Musical Theatre rather than "proper" opera.
1000 miles from the chimera I chase...but kurupt would have looked it up o wikipedia perhaps where it clearly states "light opera" heh
Can't really ask for a sig and then not have one now, can i?Looking over the night actions, no wonder Tick argued the point about Mafia kill and mod killed so much. He knew what had happened. I was speaking logically, he was speaking on knowing what had happened. Doesn't really matter, as we got his Mafia buddy, but it could have been over by day 2 if I realised this and investigated him night 2.

tick:but kurupt would have looked it up o wikipedia perhaps where it clearly states "light opera" heh
Wikipedia says whatever you want it to ![]()
