Sensible Paranoia Epilogue

quote [ Sometimes paranoia's just having all the facts. ~ William S. Burroughs ]

"work safe"

So is this ;D

Sorry it took me so long to post this, I've been enjoying being able to focus on something else for a while :)

WELCOME BACK TO RECREATION UNIT 7734.

EVERY ROLE ASSIGNMENT WAS RANDOM.
THERE WERE OCCASIONALLY WORDS IN WHITE FONT IN THE NARRATION WHICH NETTED THE OBSERVANT PLAYERS SPECIAL EQUIPMENT.
MY MAIN INTEREST IN RUNNING SUCH A LARGE GAME WAS TO TRY TO MAKE PLAYERS TWITCHY WITH PARANOIA ... SOME OF YOU (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE) DEFINITELY FELL INTO THAT DESCRIPTION.

I HAD A LOT OF FUN RUNNING THIS GAME, I HOWLED WITH LAUGHTER MANY A TIME WATCHING ALL THE SHENANIGANS FROM "BACK STAGE".

THANK YOU FOR PLAYING 8D

Everyone was told they were the Accomplice.
There never really was an Anarchist.
The Computer isn't exactly sane ;D

Entanglers could be used to target two people to entangle but everyone who used one only thought to target one person and thus got entangled with their target.

The Schrodinger Device had 29 potential effects as listed in the Dead Group post about it.

The Timebombs moved a person 1-4 periods in the future but who they moved (target or user) was up to random.org

Mutagene caused people to get additional mutations/roles.

Sloooooooooow was a drug that gave a person double night actions.

The Eldritch Horrors that 3bop started TLC knitting had no actual effects/abilities.

foglai, Hito, daffyduck, and 3bop were amazingly hard to kill :D

Players in the Sim were rewarded for actions/comments deemed "most loyal" by the Computer.

Six-Packs in the Sim were rewarded for best coordinated action.

My only regret (other than flubbing brat#3's killing of taiga) is that the Schrodinger Devices didn't cause the Eldritch Horror to come to life as an SK controlled by the dead players.

Check out my idea for a "capture the flag" version of Mafia in the Death Is Freedom google group .... we should give that a try sometime ;)

Thanks :)

Night 15 actions:
3bop Entangles Hito

So did beerboy actually pick me for testing? Or did he intend to have daffyduck tested and because of the pathswitch I was targeted instead?

Thanks -_-!
foobar said @ 9:29pm GMT on 28th Apr
tehehehehe
3bop said @ 9:59pm GMT on 28th Apr
You're a meddler!
foobar said @ 10:03pm GMT on 28th Apr
I'd been trying to off you for most of the game to steal your powers :P
3bop said @ 10:52pm GMT on 28th Apr
I didn't have any powers, except that I could see where I was sitting down.
theolypse said @ 10:53pm GMT on 28th Apr
THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.
3bop said @ 10:54pm GMT on 28th Apr
Oh, are you referring to the eldritch horror "powers"? The ones that -_- was leading you on about?
foobar said @ 11:13pm GMT on 28th Apr
Yep. See here and here.

I hoped they worked, but I suspected that they didn't and planned for it. My only regret is that I wasn't able to "investigate" RoboRonnie earlier when it would have made more of a difference.

Of course knowing how tricksy -_- is, I threw a lot of chaff into what I let him know about my plans to reduce the risk he'd get creative on me ;) I do think I mentioned to him at one point how much fun it was trying to game everybody.
-_- said @ 12:11am GMT on 29th Apr
I actually tried to pay as little attention to how people were playing as possible so that I wouldn't accidentally become biased.
Now that was a trick!
-_- said @ 9:45pm GMT on 28th Apr
daffy was the choice, but the path switching made it you ... and the entanglement made it Hito too :D
3bop said @ 10:56pm GMT on 28th Apr
Damn not being able to read the manual! Oh well, I guess I was lucky to live as long as I did.
Hito said @ 12:09am GMT on 29th Apr
Yeah...thanks again for that. :P <3

I did not manage to successfully use my night action even once! I am angry about that!
-_- said @ 9:49pm GMT on 28th Apr [Score:1 Informative]
Yeah, it was an experimental role that didn't work out :(

It was an attempt to keep people from trying to lay low by being quiet.
I'm thinking a better variation would be a SK that gets to target whomever has the least comments.
Kind of a Mime Killer ;D
foobar said @ 10:16pm GMT on 28th Apr
Oh the TLC horrors certainly did do something; they made the GM narrate something that the leader could weave lies into ;)

Well yeah, there's that :D

One request of whoever runs the next one, keep it simple. Please?!?

It's going to look simple no matter what they do.
redemption said @ 11:27pm GMT on 28th Apr
Well the next one I've got planned is somewhat complex, with hidden information, new mechanic and variants on roles. So I wanted something that I wouldn't need to focus so intently on to occupy the exam period that I've got coming up :)
Hito said @ 12:07am GMT on 29th Apr
Hopefully there's room for many players, as I'm sure this one drummed up interest. I'd hate to miss out on the next game.
mrklipp said @ 11:23pm GMT on 28th Apr
Yeah, it was lots of fun, but this was my first time playing a mafia game and I was lost as hell all the way through.
redemption said @ 11:28pm GMT on 28th Apr
I've played several, and I was lost as hell through most of it. I just stuck to the guns of voting and trying to keep as many people happy as possible to reduce the chance of my death being imminent.
-_- said @ 12:09am GMT on 29th Apr
It was my hope that between the six-pack teams and the Secret Societies there would be enough teamwork to help n00bs out and bring them up to speed.
