[split] The Return of Jester Mafia - GAME END!

BORED NOW.

As The man with the striking white mask is the only one to attempt to curry ANY favor I will Vote Mirdini.

THUS HAVE I SPOKEN!

That doesn't sound too vitally important, Cy, but in the interest of interest, me.

Aw man, you were the one person I didn't want to have visited me. Redundancy. Alas.


Okay I'm thinking my plans aren't gonna go through here so I guess I'll just Vote: Mirdini

Infinite sorrows! That today of all days-- our last of days-- should end with so many unfulfilled... sssssomething-or-other, I can't keep this up. Vote: Mirdini, I guess. His coffin shan't be bereft of nails, at least.

There is a clap of thunder. The people have spoken: It is Mirdini who shall meet his end this day.

But what is a death scene without final words? By the grace of the mods, Mirdini has been granted one post before his demise, to speak his final piece.

Mirdini, speak now, and let your true thoughts be known for posterity.

I'd just like to thank all the little people

those people being Jacquerel, Sruixan, and granolaman. You were an inspiration

Not you NottheAuthor, you are a cad and a bounder and I hope I never find out what the secret behind all your diabolical robot plans was.

Now, without any further ado, let me ASCEND TO GLORIOUS JESTER VICTORY.

I'm... I'm real! I'm a real jester!

Having said his last words, Mirdini steps up to the gallows and laughs. He still laughs to the moment of his demise, dying like a true jester, for that was all that he ever wished to be.

Mirdini was the Jester-in-Training. His greatest desire was to be a full-fledged jester, and since he was surrounded by jesters, he decided to learn from them.

Every night, he could examine one player and would take notes on what they were doing. He also had the choice of performing one of the actions in his notebook, which would be similar to the original player’s action but generally less effective.

Were he to successfully perform three such lessons, he would have learned to be a jester. But there was one final step in this plan: to be lynched, like a true jester. He could claim half a win were but one of these conditions to be met, but for a true win, he had to learn to be a jester and meet his demise as one.

And indeed, he did! Mirdini has won!

Meanwhile, a shout of victory rises up from Granolaman’s corpse, as it turns out he won as well. And not long after, Coldblooded and Sruixan cry out to remind everyone of their already-confirmed victories. There is also a halfhearted shout from SupahKiven, who only earned a half-win.

The rest of the graveyard is silent. It seems everyone else has lost.

But why are the dead suddenly speaking out? Ah, of course, it is because the game has ended. For two members of the mafia survive, and only two others may oppose them.

The villains are the devious yd12k and Not The Author, and together they have, reluctantly, overpowered the unaligned cyber95 and Glorious Leader Paranoia.

yd12k is the Thiefjester, a master of stealth. But as a jester, he couldn’t simply take things - he had to leave them behind as well.

He started with a poisoned needle, and could give that to another player while stealing something from them. If he left the right gift with the right player, they would be able to use it for a one-shot, which generally helped them meet their win condition.

He needed to drop off three such gifts to win, but he only succeeded in delivering one: the neon sign that Coldblooded found. Not long after, he had to take over killing duties and could no longer steal.

And what of his partner?

Not The Author was the Ex-Tattoo Artist. He joined the Mafia because he wanted to put his past behind him and be a ruthless murderer, but there was one problem: He couldn’t help himself. Whenever he saw a defenseless person without a tattoo, he was compelled to put one there.

But if his victim did have a tattoo, then of course his compulsion wouldn’t kick in and he could kill them as normal, even though the Mafia didn’t actually assign him to killing. His goal was to kill three people on consecutive nights. He failed, only scoring one kill over the course of the game.

For the record, it was his idea to tattoo the names of other players. Also, if he had been the last member of the Mafia standing, though he would technically receive the Mafia kill, he would still be subject to his restrictions.

And our two survivors?

cyber95 was the Unlynchable Man. An unlikely accident had granted him superhuman powers, which made him completely immune to lynching - any votes against him just wouldn’t count! As a jester, of course, this was a complete disaster to him.

(Incidentally, this made him count as a non-human. Malky’s win required him to die.)

Fortunately, he also had a wide assortment of weaknesses! And he would explain these weaknesses in detail to anyone he visited. He also left a bunch of signs out around his house to inform anyone who visited him. If someone knew his weaknesses and voted against him, their votes would count.

He would win if he was lynched. Sadly, he was not, and instead he has been put into forced labor by the Mafia.

And finally, there is Jesterland’s glorious leader, Paranoia, who…

Wait. What the hell was Para’s role? And where is he, aren’t those Mafia guys supposed to be forcing him to do their bidding?

Wait a moment...

Para has just issued an official decree declaring his own victory. As leader of Jesterland, of course, his word is law, and so Para has won the game! He has also declared himself immune to anything the Mafia does, so there.

yd12k and Not The Author just shrug their shoulders and drag cyber95 off to do their nefarious bidding. Which they’d be more enthusiastic about if they’d actually met their goals, dang it.

Winners:
Granolaman, who shot himself with his own gun
Coldblooded, who got a member of the scumteam lynched - himself!
Sruixan, who went out wrestling
Mirdini, who died as a real jester
Paranoia, by official decree

Half-Winners:
SupahKiven, who bused everyone on the scumteam except frigidScholar/Coldblooded.

Losers:
Everyone else, including me, Bob, and Solaris.

Quicktopic links and other stuff will go up in the morning, probably.

Everybody that had learned my secret died, it's really annoying.


Also I knew pretty early on I was unlikely to win. I mean, in a game where very rarely is anybody gonna want to lynch an actual person, not only having to contend against that but also having to make try and choose people who will very specifically go for it, and also choosing people that will hopefully stay alive. Yeah I wasn't optimistic.

Thank you for the sign yd12k, it was very helpful. Shame that we couldn't achieve the elusive Full Mafia Win though. But you guys are still winners in my book.

Yd12k. NTA. Get yer dirty mitts away from my bus.

rrrrRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGHHHHHHHHH SOB I WAS SO CLOSE

Not you NottheAuthor, you are a cad and a bounder and I hope I never find out what the secret behind all your diabolical robot plans was.

Seeing as I never had one, I guarantee you will not.

Whassat Kiven? I can't hear you over my rad repainting job. Graffiti's just body art for buildings, after all. I think I could get into this...

...Kinda wish I had more colors, though.

Everybody that had learned my secret died, it's really annoying.

Actually, everyone but Para was able to vote for you on the last day.

Not you NottheAuthor, you are a cad and a bounder and I hope I never find out what the secret behind all your diabolical robot plans was.

This was nothing more than the effect of Pilot's lies giving Mirdini a false report in the morning. He actually had notes on NTA and I would have told him that if, say, he asked me for a list of people he had notes on.

More details to come once I'm awake enough to organize them all.

Actually, everyone but Para was able to vote for you on the last day.

Dammit. Not that my ability to convince people to change votes is particularly impressive anyways.

Dang, nights were complicated. It's taking me a while to put all this together.

I'll try to get it out this evening, though.

Fogel u r so scm,,, man y u haz to get me ded towwwn!!111

but actually lynching a mod seemed too easy

also

sruixan was the scariest bear wrestler

My take-away from this is that I will go to utterly ridiculous lengths in order to win a silly little game on the internet.

...but then I already knew that. So yeah.

(also Fogel deserves fair respect, given how superbly convoluted this game actually was behind the scenes)

Okay, the big info dump is nearly done. Expect it soon, after I look over it again.

Cyber, I was wrong actually, for some reason I still had bigro listed as being able to vote you even though he was dead.

Your vote on yourself would have counted, but you'd need Mirdini and NTA to go for you, and of course Mirdini was your main lynch-rival.

oh just rub it in why don't ya

Potential One-Shots

yd12k's Thiefjester Gifts

Show Content

Spoiler
Thiefjester - Present. Leaves it behind at the next robbery and it gives him a free point. If he leaves it at his own place due to busdriving, he still gets a point and can use it again. If he leaves it with anyone else, he'll just steal an empty box that doesn't do anything.

Jargonjester - Sign. Says "LYNCH ME I'M SCUM". Whoever he gives it to will only require half the votes to lynch the next day. They will also be identified as carrying it in the morning flavor.

Ex-Tattoo Artist - Poisonous needle. Kills whoever he tattoos with it.

Gunjester - Mind control device. May use it instead of handing out a gun. The mind-controlled player will shoot Gunjester if given a gun on a later night; however, if they choose to visit Gunjester of their own volition before then, they'll end up destroying the device.

Busjester - Magnet. One target will automatically be scum, chosen at random. (So it might be scum he's already driven.)

Delivery Boy - Offensive Paper. Whoever he delivers this to will be outraged by the paper. It upsets them so much that they'll just toss it at whoever they're visiting the next night, in addition to their regular action. If the Delivery Boy visits whoever ends up with the paper, they'll kill him in a rage, assuming he's responsible.

Dog - Leash. If his target doesn't have a newspaper, he'll hand them a leash and will follow them on their night action, in addition to performing his own. If the leash-holder visits his owner, the dog wins; if the leash-holder visits anyone else, they'll hand the leash over to whoever they visit. The leash stops working if the current leash-holder dies at any time.

Arsonjester - Tent. Whoever's house he burns down will also be protected from attacks, unless he targets the house.

House - Party invitations. Calls everyone who ever visited the house in for a party.

Wanna-be Murderer - Knife. Lets him get a kill immediately.

False Blood Trail - Anti-dizziness pills. Allows him to make a blood trail lead to his own house.

Watchjester - Blindfold. Will not see anyone when watching.

Bodyguard Jester - Unprotective Vest. Performs their regular bodyguarding and will be killed if they player they select is targeted.

Jester-in-training - Certificate. Counts as one lesson learned.

Wrestler Jestler - Inflatable Referee. Wrestles as normal, but there's guaranteed to be a ref.

Flip-flop-liar - Post-It Notes. Can write "YOU WILL NOT VOTE FOR (Player Name) TOMORROW" on it, and the target will automatically have a vote on the named player. If the Flip-Flop Liar told the truth in their last post, that player's vote won't count; if the Flip-Flop Liar lied, the vote will count. This means that the Liar can suddenly cause a hammer by lying.

Invincible Jester - Jesteronite. Using it makes him completely vulnerable the next day.

Jesterbot - Anthromorph Ray. Turns one player into a human. Kills them if they're already human.

BTP/Fogel - Mod Switch. This was meant to be a button that we could use to switch which one of us was in the playerlist, it would have counted even after that no longer became feasible.

Items were randomly distributed as follows at the start of the game:

Poison Needle - Thiefjester
Medication - Ex-Tattoo Artist
Unprotective Vest - False Blood Trail
Blindfold - Bodyguard Jester
Sign - Watchjester
Hypnotism Book - Jargonjester
Mod Switch - Gunjester
Anthromorph Ray - Mod

Mirdini's Jester-In-Training Notes

Show Content

Spoiler
Jargonjester - Can target one player and make them speak in Mafia jargon for the next day.

Ex-Tattoo Artist - Gains the ability to tattoo one player.

Gunjester - Can target one player. Attempts to give them a gun, but messes up and just shoots them.

Thiefjester - Tries to steal an item from the target, but trips up and leaves it there. Learns what the item is but doesn't get to use it.

Busjester - Can target one player. Busdrives self and that player.

Delivery Boy - Gives one player a newspaper. The information is completely meaningless.

Dog - Can target one player and steal a newspaper from them if they have one.

Arsonjester - Can target one player and sets half of their house on fire. No effect, but shows up in day flavor. Doesn't work if they don't have a house.

House - Directs the targeted player to the house.

Wanna-be Murderer - Visits someone. If they were going to perform a kill tonight, he does instead; this mainly means that if the killing player is roleblocked, but Jester-in-training isn't, the kill goes through.

False Blood Trail - Leaves a blood trail, but stops halfway through to avoid getting dizzy. Blood trail appears to lead nowhere.

Watchjester - Watches someone, but only sees how many people visit, not who.

Bodyguard Jester - Regular old bodyguard; protects the target but will die if they're attacked.

Jester-In-Training - Only possible if driven to himself. Notes just leave him confused, as though he was roleblocked.

Wrestler Jestler - Can wrestle one player, but will always lose because he's scrawny. The next day, he'll be so exhausted from the experience that his vote won't count.

Flip-flop-liar - Can target one player and pick "Truth" or "Lies". However, he gets the false effects rather than the targeted player.

Invincible Jester - Tells a player his weakness. Since he isn't actually invincible, he says his weakness is being lynched. For the rest of the game, he can be lynched with one less vote than normal.

Jesterbot - Can target one player. If they're human, he remains human. If they're not, he becomes non-human.

BTP/Fogel - If he targets a mod, he'll end up being so confused that he ends up losing a point towards becoming a jester.

I think that covers everything. Yeah, this game had a lot of crazy details behind the scenes.

Worse then losing is having to continue to play
worse still is that said continueing involves bloody murder

I only wanted some lip on lip action
