Role PMs

Spoiler: show

You are the Disguiser! You are the sneaky leader of the mafia who is good at blending in with crowds. Each night, you may disguise yourself as one player. If the Sheriff inspects you, you will use your target's cardflip color. Additionally, you will conspire with your allies in the mafia, <player> (the Consort), <player> (the Doublespeaker), <player>, and <player> to kill one player each night.

You are the Consort! You are the Disguiser's beautiful wife. Each night, you may distract one player to prevent their ability from working. The target will be notified if their ability is successfully blocked. Additionally, you will conspire with your allies in the mafia, <player> (the Disguiser), <player> (the Doublespeaker), <player>, and <player> to kill one player each night.

You are the Doublespeaker! You are a corrupt town constable who manipulates the votes. During the day, you may vote by ballot box, obscuring your real vote (your votes in the thread will not count). Additionally, you will conspire with your allies in the mafia, <player> (the Disguiser), <player> (the Consort),
<player>, and <player> to kill one player each night.

You are a member of the Mafia! You are a gangster working for the local crime family with aspirations of greatness. Each night, you will conspire with your allies in the mafia, <player> (the Disguiser), <player> (the Consort), <player> (the Doublespeaker) and <player> to kill one player.

You are the Sheriff! You are the only law enforcement official in this small town. Each night, you may inspect one player to learn their cardflip color. If you die, your power will be transferred to the Deputy.

You are the Deputy! YoU tAke CAre oF tHE plACe WhILe ThE sHEriFf iS AWaY. If the Sheriff dies,
you will be notified, and will gain the Sheriff's ability to inspect one player each night and learn their cardflip color.

You are the Doctor! You are a well-trained emergency room physician. Each night, you can heal one player (not yourself; self-medication is dangerous) to prevent them from being night killed. A notification will be displayed the next day if you successfully protect someone. If you die, your power will be transferred to the Nurse.

You are the Nurse! When the Doctor joins the dead players, you are in charge of healing one player each night! <player>: Leave it to me! (You will also be notified when the Doctor dies.)

Day 8
TLtimelord, dark lord of the mafia who started out as a mere regular mafioso, had been manipulating Sheriff Zeldamaster12 from the very start. And now that Noodle and Spinda were the only threats left, he knew what he had to do. Noodle was fully manipulated, and even Spinda didn't suspect TLtimelord. It was all over. TLtimelord put a knife in Noodle's hand, and sent him after Spinda. Noodle hesistated to kill him, but TLtimelord...



Spinda has died.

The MAFIA wins!

Congratulations to TLtimelord and the rest of the mafia, who managed to carry the game back from what seemed like certain defeat just a few days ago. Postgame thread will be up in a few minutes, though I can already tell you that TLtimelord is the mafia MVP (and game MVP), and Zeldamaster12 is the town MVP.

And thanks to everyone for playing!

My personal thoughts
There were some really good plays by both teams during this game. Zeldamaster completely carried the town especially in the early game, and things mostly fell apart after he started being roleblocked, although he did manage to lynch two mafiosos based on suspicion alone which was pretty impressive especially considering that he was the sheriff. TLtimelord was extremely tricky in the late game though and managed to carry his team to victory in spite of all this, surprising everyone, including Zeldamaster who had completely trusted him while he was alive. Good stuff. Spinda was right about the town becoming a bit lazy with the presence of a confirmed sheriff though, and more investigation would've done the town good, and maybe gotten Timelord lynched.

Player Analysis

Spoiler: show

ShadowStarX: Regular townie. Talked a lot, but didn't contribute to evidence-gathering much, like most of the town. He also started the lynch against Electriking, which was not great for the town.

MosaicMario: The Deputy. Got in contact with Zeldamaster as soon as he requested contact, as was a good move, and coordinated with him as he could. One of the better townies this game.

thehelmetguy1: The Miller. One of the more level-headed townies, he tried to coordinate an alliance at the start of the game, although it didn't really work out. He was also indirectly responsible for Zeldamaster discovering Megar as a mafioso due to being the miller.

Sanct: Regular mafioso. Reasonably active in the mafia chat, though I wouldn't call him one of the main planners. He did a fairly good job of blending in with the town, but was also suspicious enough to get himself inspected and discovered by Zeldamaster.

glitch4: Regular townie. Participated well until the late game, though he mostly bandwagoned on Zeldamaster's orders like most of the town. Don't be afraid to conduct your own investigations!

Megar: The Disguiser. Active in the mafia chat in the early game and contributed to their planning well, but unfortunately disguised himself as the miller. He still did a good job of diverting suspicion to Electriking until Day 2, and kept Zeldamaster from being trusted until then.

Witchking666: Regular townie. Active in early game planning, and died fairly early as well. Definitely put in effort as a townie though, similar to helmetguy.

Waddle Derp: The Vigilante. Died Night 1.

TLtimelord: Regular mafioso. The mafia MVP, he did an extremely good job with getting Zeldamaster and the rest of the remaining townies to completely trust him all the way to the end of the game, one of the most impressive comebacks in SMBX Mafia history, honestly. He also did a large amount of scheming in the mafia chat.

Spinda: Regular townie. Although he tried to be active and gather evidence, most of what he did worked into the mafia's hands, as they noted early on in the game, and he made himself look suspicious especially in the early-mid game. Put in a lot of effort despite unintentionally helping the mafia, though.

Zeldamaster12: The Sheriff. The town MVP, who pretty much single-handedly carried the town, from the start of Day 1 all the way until after he died. His suspicions were on-point, and gave him good inspection targets as well as good lynch targets after he revealed himself and the Consort started roleblocking him. All of his targets were accurate except for thehelmetguy (who was inspected as red) and glitch4, who was a late game target, and a fairly understandable option long after Zeldamaster could no longer inspect. His early game plays with claiming to be in contact with the sheriff were also very effective to avoid being roleblocked or killed.

Cedur: The Doublespeaker. A valuable member of the mafia who did a lot to contribute to his team's strategy. Stayed alive for a long time and helped TLtimelord formulate the plans that led to the mafia's victory. Good stuff.

Danny: Regular townie. Pretty active and helpful until he was killed on Night 2, before everyone started doing Zeldamaster's bidding.

Doesntpostverymuch: The Doctor. Not an effective doctor, he had somewhat random protection targets even after gaining contact with Zeldamaster. He was also completely inactive on Night 3, which made him less effective than he could have been otherwise. Please pay more attention to what's going on and work closer with your teammates; your username isn't an excuse to be inactive if you sign up for Mafia.

Noodle: Regular townie. Not very active, pretty much only used his votes to bandwagon. This is your first game so it's totally understandable; please participate more in the future though!

MECHDRAGON777: Much like the rest of the town, he mostly followed Zeldamaster's orders blindly without doing his own research.

Electriking: The Nurse. Like has been mentioned elsewhere in this thread, defending himself more and perhaps claiming his role would've helped the town a lot; not lynching a blue is always better. Don't be afraid to defend yourself!

Uzendayo: The Consort. The least active member of the mafia, he didn't contribute much to strategy, nor in the thread, which eventually got him lynched. His ability was very important to the mafia's performance, though.

Kek
Well, my playing here was like meh. Could have done better

[TLtimelord]

What I did not realize this whole time the game title was a star wars reference.

[ShadowStarX]

When you start a bandwagon against the nurse and then they don't claim in order to save themselves...

[Zeldamaster12]

All my effort... in vein... I'm never trusting TNT again.

[Megar]

And here we have a live 'traumatized ZM12'

[Cedur]

Bussing totally intensified on Day 5 and nobody would have expected it so late

[glitch4]

easy game

[ElectriKong]

When you start a bandwagon against the nurse and then they don't claim in order to save themselves...

Which would have been almost certain death later on anyway.

[ShadowStarX]

When you start a bandwagon against the nurse and then they don't claim in order to save themselves...

Which would have been almost certain death later on anyway.

There was still a possiblity of the original doctor being alive and they could have protected you and stuff...

[Zeldamaster12]

Yeah honestly, not claiming was a really bad move. It doesn't matter if you'll be targeted later, claiming and staying alive for a little longer is better than lynching off a blue.

[TLtimelord]

I'm kind of interested to see what Pseudo has to say about player analyses.

[Witchking666]

Player analysis. I am curious what Pseudo has to say about my playing.

[Cedur]

Here, to bridge the waiting, are the DEVILOUS MASTER PLANS that totally failed on my side and totally succeeded on TNT's side :>>

Night 1 / Day 1
Night 2 / Day 2
Night 3 / Day 3
Night 4 / Day 4
Night 5 / Day 5
Night 6 and onward (a few stuff is missing towards the end but it's just celebration)

[Black Mamba]

I didn't know that Shroom and Cedur were the same person

















fuck

[Zeldamaster12]

Wow I was a lot harder to kill than I thought lol

[Doesntpostverymuch]

gg i wasn't mvp was i?

[Black Mamba]

Wow I was a lot harder to kill than I thought lol

It wouldn't have been as hard if we had already killed off the doctor. I kept on blockin you so you wouldn't find out TLtimelord, but because of that, I couldn't block the doctor from healing you. So we assumed that you were always being saved.
