Posts from Mafia 112. Pirates of the HW Sea

I realized that you weren't just asking me this question for no reason. But you could have just asked me directly.

That will be a surprise 😈

Will you bring some trash and then say, "Oops, sorry, that's what the random generator gave me, and that's what I brought"?

In my setting, there will be a couple of situations where the player can lose everything interesting and be left with nothing but a weak character without skills and abilities. And you can also forbid players from writing during the day. I'm not hinting at anything, I'm just saying.

Somewhere I've already seen this...

I love Warhammer and Adeptus Mechanicus in particular, but what's the meme?

Emm... What "Warhammer"?

Well, now you've revealed the whole shameful truth. You couldn't have just said that it was a very clever plan

Don't lie to the Lizardman, even if you're a Mafia member. Because then he will never believe you again!

Like, which one... Warhammer 40000, as the Adeptus Mechanicus, an organization of toaster enthusiasts, is one of its factions.

Aaa... I just don't know.

MAGNUS NEVER BETRAYED

You'll bring some garbage, and then say, "Sorry, that's just how the random generator worked, I came with what I had"?

Maybe...

MAGNUS NEVER BETRAYED

Lehmann Russ is a jerk!

10. Sky (Monkey Jack) sets the parrot on Neiko (Cotton). The result is a bottle of rum.

I also don't understand the logic here... So you get a "pirate," and then what? I would definitely use a block in that situation.

Because you can, apparently.

All I can conclude is that the game of Hvshnikovs cannot be described using lizard-like characteristics. It requires some other, unknown to lizards, units of measurement...

My name is Will Turner. Here is my story. In the past few nights, I was up to all sorts of nonsense. First, I amused myself by dressing a monkey in my beloved's clothes, while she was being dragged to the bottom of the sea. Well, I grieved a little, and then went on a date with a mysterious woman - but she was too busy, saying that she was resurrecting lizardmen, so it didn't work out. But I didn't despair, and, deciding to experience something exotic, I had an unforgettable time riding on a huge tentacled monster. Then, over a bottle of rum, I argued for a long time with a former officer that I hadn't imagined all this because of a hangover, when suddenly shots rang out, he rushed to the rescue, and I followed him, hoping to pull him out of the fire, but a bullet flies faster than the wind - so he didn't finish telling me about his adventures. Well, the last thing I remember is the captain telling me to bring him gunpowder, so I went, and suddenly a terrible face with tentacles appeared out of nowhere, and I felt cold steel piercing me... That's how my incredible adventures ended. But I know that my brave team will continue on their way no matter what... Victory to the city! I didn't expect the city to win; I thought we were in a very bad situation, but respect to Nebu for pulling us out of a difficult situation. I admit, I didn't really believe in you and was even considering supporting Revan. I came to the conclusion that this option is very doubtful, as it is impossible to win against him, no matter which side you take, so maybe it's better to just randomly eliminate people without thinking. I decided to trust you in the end, and it was the right decision. The lizardman also played great, with many correct thoughts and arguments.

If we analyze it, the mafia's position weakened precisely on the third night. The lack of a block on the Lizardman + the block on Fragment led to the fact that both options for who was the target the next day (Arthur and Fragment) were cleared, and they had to reveal themselves. The decision to kill Plesen was correct.

Yes, and I was surprised that the block came from the mafia; I thought it was from the Lizardman, who decided to test me, which I was actually hoping for after the second day. I want to talk about this in more detail, as that's where the suspicions against me arose. Then I first cast my vote for Heroist because the Lizardman's words about the bottle coincided with how Heroist wrote something that directly contradicted my perception; I don't remember what exactly. Then I see that everyone is attacking Heroist very easily, and the initial version about the monkey with Neyra was quickly dismissed. And then I wanted to have a little fun with crazy theories... One of them led to the fact that Neyra couldn't be Cotton. It was so interesting that I even dared to switch my vote to her, even though it looked like a mafia move, even though there were already suspicions about me. I also remembered how in one of the previous games, someone, Tox, I think, persistently suggested blocking him at night to make sure he wasn't a mafia member. I wasn't going to do the same, as I don't like when people use force roles as an alibi, but I still had a tricky thought that if I looked suspicious enough, they might block me, and that would clear me. Of course, it's risky, and in general, but... Those who have played with me before know that I sometimes like to stir things up. And I just couldn't deny myself that. And even in my last post, when I cast my vote back, I tricked a little, writing that there were still suspicions about Neyra, although in reality, I already generally believed that she was Cotton, as no other candidates appeared, and it came to the point that no one would brazenly pretend to be a live investigator. And here, it probably wouldn't be very wise to provoke a block on myself on the eve of the Kraken's ultimate ability, I missed that, it could have had serious consequences, but fortunately, it didn't. The third day arrived, it's time to start guessing the roles. But it was difficult; I only found a couple of villagers. And the guide is a useful thing; you can attach a similar one not only to this specific game. You can just rename it a little, because if casual players see it, they might think, "Oh, this isn't for me!", and they'll start guessing roles, missing out on the information about how they should look. A separate thank you to the Master for hosting and for the colorful newspapers; it was interesting. Thank you all for the game!

I also don't understand the logic here... So you get a "pirate," and what? I would definitely use a block in this situation.

But what does a block give you? Block a Mirka who is going to heal another Mirka? Or block a defender? They have a better chance of saving another Mirka with their action than I do of hitting the Mafia with a block. And the block of the same defender also hurts his Mafia, great move, yeah. And blocking the investigator deprives him of information, which he doesn't have much of anyway. Also a great move. No, if I have a choice between a block and a check, and I don't even have a rough idea who the negative is, then I will choose a check.

Initially, I considered agreeing with the idea that, logically, blocking the monkey, as a kind of "maniac," was the right thing to do. But since we're talking about an urban maniac, it seems that Haven acted very wisely and rationally.

My name is Hector Barbossa. Here's my story. I'm sitting in my cabin, drinking rum and thinking, "Where did that damn monkey run off to...?" I leave the cabin to look for it, and then some woman says, "Stop! Don't go anywhere, trouble awaits you!" So, I lock this woman in the cabin so she doesn't bother me, and I walk around the deck, and I see a small boat and think, "Maybe that monkey is in there?" I go down to the boat and hear a voice from somewhere, "That's a smart move!" Then there are some paranoid hallucinations about some lizard-like creatures that are doing something unclear on this planet, because some locals are fiercely exterminating them, while others don't care at all... I wake up a day later and see that woman's face... I say, "Ugh... that was some strong rum... How long did I sleep?" The woman says, "Yes, it was strong rum. Come on, idiot, the crew has been waiting for you." I go up to the deck and ask, "Please tell me, what happened to my ship where the hell is my monkey?" Everyone says, "We have no idea, there are enemies around, Elizabeth and Gibbs have also disappeared... They say a kraken is causing trouble." I'm standing on the deck, looking at some unfamiliar person... I say, "Hey, buddy, who are you? And tell me, did you steal my monkey and drag it to the bottom of the sea?" The unfamiliar person says, "Sir, I've never had tentacles... I'm new here, the captain hired me just yesterday... while you were lying in a boat with a hole in your head." I say, "What do you mean, a hole??? Isn't it rum??? Okay, I'll believe you. Go on..." Then I think, "Maybe the captain knows? I'll go ask him..." I go into the cabin, the captain is not there, there is a hole in the wall, and a tentacle is sticking out of the hole! I shout, "Ah, so it was you who stole my monkey!" and I slash the tentacle with my saber! The creature doesn't answer and disappears back into the sea... Then I think, "Listen, Barbossa, there's another new recruit here. Go ask him." I go to his cabin, and from behind I hear a familiar voice, "That's a smart move!" I wake up in the morning, and my monkey is looking at me! I say, "Where the hell have you been all this time?" The monkey says in a language only I understand, "Don't be angry, master. I've been trying to figure out who's been doing all this nonsense on our ship." I say, "And? Did you figure it out?" The monkey, holding someone's heart in its hand, says, "YES!" I say, "What the hell is that in your hand?" The monkey says, "It's the heart of that guy!" I say, "How did you figure that out?" The monkey says, "I saw him being eaten by guilt after killing Turner. But he didn't jump overboard!" I say, "Really?" I take my saber and slash the heart! And then a voice comes from the depths of the sea, "Well, buddy, now you'll have to sail the seas forever..." I say, "WHAT???" THE END OF THE STORY!

My name is Cutler Beckett. And this is my story.

The oceans have become polluted these days. Pirates have infested them. As a true servant of the crown, I set out to cleanse the blessed waters of this scourge. I was given two strange sea creatures as companions. At first, I was surprised, but then it turned out that they were quite sociable and generally pleasant fellows.

We infiltrated the pirate ship and set out together with one goal: to exterminate this scum! On the first night, I went to relieve myself and suddenly saw a pirate in a hat walking by and getting into a boat. And I thought: why is he getting into it? Suspicious... I pulled out my pistol and fired a bullet into the damned pirate's forehead. I didn't forget the signature "That's a business approach!" After that, I went to sleep, feeling quite satisfied. At night, I heard strange monkey noises. Probably, it was just my imagination.

The next day, we and the sea creatures watched as the pirates futilely tried to investigate the disappearance of two crew members. Unfortunately, I forgot to patch up the hole in the forehead of the dead pirate, and a clue remained. But everything worked out. However, even the sea creatures didn't understand where the second female pirate had gone. Only her clothes and some kind of slime remained. What is this?!

At night, I hear monkey noises again. "I'll replay and destroy. I'll replay and destroy!" I'm scared.

Unbelievable! He's resurrected! The pirate in the hat is alive again! Damn it! How is this possible?! And besides him, they find another dead man without clothes. This time, some drunk guy. What is killing them, and why are they always naked?!

Everything is getting sad. One of the sea creatures unsuccessfully attempted to assassinate the guy with the red headband. Is he the captain, by any chance? I didn't really pay attention...

During the day, the unlucky sea creature was executed by the pirates. Everything is starting to go very wrong. I hear a monkey laughing.

The next night, the last of the sea creatures smiles mysteriously and calls his tentacled friend. The tentacled friend attacks the ship. He kills the strange woman with dreadlocks and the mute pirate with a parrot. In the process, he strips them and does all sorts of things. Oh my god, this is the killer! A huge, horny squid has been killing the pirates all this time!

Well, at least I'm still alive. During the day, I realize that the pirate in the hat is too dangerous. I must finish what I started. I almost manage to ambush him, but he is saved by a man who looks vaguely like me. Who is he? I've never seen him before. Judging by his clothes, he's a normal guy, not a pirate. Why did he give his life for them? The squid, by that time, somehow killed himself and went to the bottom with a horny "thwack-thwack."

It's useless. The last pirates defeat us. It's all the monkey's fault! It saved them!

The sea creature is dead... His ship has been captured by the pirate in the hat. And the monkey comes to me...

I look at her.

She looks at me.

"Why are you so charismatic?"

The monkey doesn't answer.

I put the gun to my temple and shoot. I will meet the sea creatures again in heaven.

That's a business approach!

And this is the end.

My name is Kraken. Everyone thinks I look like the picture on the first page, but in reality, I look like this:

Well, then it's not surprising that I didn't even resist.
