quote [ Learn the history of the Jedi and their enemiesfrom the most ancient battles of light versus darkness chronicled within the recesses of long-lost Holocrons to more contemporary conflagrations recounted by heroes such as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Leia Organa Solo. Discover the myriad ways to contemplate and use the Force, wield a lightsaber through different forms of combat, and for the truly brave, tread the path of the dark side and study the secrets of the Sith. ]
Day 11: The fall
Thirdspango, the last Jedi, along with Theluckysean, the last Noghri, grabbed Defiancefalcon by his collar. The other 5 townspeople stood with Lando in astonishment. On day four no Sith had been killed, with the exception of the emperor's hand (who just as well could have been town if there was an earlier defeat of the emperor). By day seven, the chances of a town win were bleak, with the ratio of Sith to town nearly at 1:1.5, down from the beginning number of 1:2.5. Finally however, the town began to hit their stride, lynching three sith in the last four days. Defiance falcon was indeed Revan, now sent by the town for execution.

Again, I am pretty busy tonight, but will try to answer individual questions. I will most likely make a follow up post with my thoughts on the game. |

Woohoo! I'm on the winning side for once! And it's good to know that someone I had been going for since late day 6 ended up being a right target. Especially given all my fuck-up-ery with bad guys on my trusted list. |

Thanks for stopping by! Sorry about that mental retardation, must be a bitch to deal with, what with your inability to grasp simple concepts like the Mafia games that have been running for quite some time now. Have fun at Digg! (Though you sound more like someone who comments on YouTube... you should check it out). |

It was a good run. I'm also amused to know that the Jedi knew who I was a night in advance and saved me for the next night's kill to redeem their status with the town, unless I misinterpreted all that. |

What an incredible turnaround! Around the time I died I honestly thought we Sith had an unassailable lead! I mean it really felt like we had a head start on everyone else. If the emperor's hand hadn't died on day one we probably could've taken this game down pretty quickly, but I think long games make collaborators more and more obvious. Anyway, good game, well run and well played by all. |

This was my first SE mafia game, and I was a little quiet but it was damn fun - I would love to play a sensible sunnydale or something else along those lines if they start up. I'm glad I lived to the end, I think my general clumsyness and intentional release of information saved me somehow. Great job town. |

I, for one, thoroughly enjoyed that. I was edified to see that the Sith did not raise my name in suspicion once; being crazy-busy has it's plus points. Also, my night -kill for the last night was Justus, who the /sith also seemed to be gunning for, I got a kick out of that. Snowfox; sorry for being so rude in "for the reveal", I was a tad stressed. In retrospect I think that some of that overbearingness was tactics, but still, sometimes it's okay if it isn't the Snowfox-show. Zelgius; Sorry for trying to lynch you so hard. |

Aww, the sith wanted to kill me 'cuz they thought I was all smart 'n stuff even though they knew I was town, that makes me feel a bit better. And I *knew* that after the jedi killed me that eightysix was jedi. Too late I realized my mistake. I knew he was special, I just picked the wrong one. |

After reading some of the forums, I feel like I have to apologize to the jedi, you're right, I should have kept my mouth shut on some of those things. I apparently forgot at times that my previous experience consisted of just finding who was special who wasn't on my team, and I didn't have to analyze whether they were good or bad. At least I know I had a fairly good radar for special roles. Oh well, I think the main reason the town won at the end was the open sharing of why certain town members were probably clear. |
