Cheers Mafia

[Kneeneighbor]

Cheers is filmed before a live studio audience.



Sam's bar has come under fire recently as numerous rivals have tried to acquire the bar. Carla, Woody and the rest of the bar flies are working hard to make sure that doesn't happen. Can Sam hold on to the bar? Will Evan Drake take over as the new owner? Can Robin Colcord use his under handed tactics to drive away customers and have Sam over a barrel? Will Harry the Hat be able to scam his way to a fortune?

"You know Norm, the ancient Mesopotamians are credited with starting the modern mail system"

"Cliffy, I just can't do this right now. Paul, how about some darts?"

"What about you Woody? Would you like to know more about the Mesopotamian Mail? Or as they called it, the tabellarius mailus."

"Sorry Mr. Clavin, I need to carry some stuff up from the cellar. Why don't you talk to Kelly over here?"

"Sure thing, Kelly, its a little known fact that the first letter was sent in 150BC."

"I'm sorry everyone, I just can't do this any more. Woody, I love you but hanging out here just isnt for me. I will see you when you get home."

And with that Fro leaves, never to be seen at Cheers again.

Fro has been lynched. He was town aligned vanila Kelly.

We now have 24 hours to submit roles.

"What'll you have, Normie?" Well, I'm in a gambling mood Sammy. I'll take a glass of whatever comes out of the tap." "Looks like beer, Norm." "Call me Mister Lucky."

Cliff sees Kangus around the other side of the bar. He makes his way over to him. “It's a little known fact that smartest animal is a pig. Scientists say if pigs had thumbs and a language, they could be trained to do simple manual labor. They give you 20-30 years of loyal service and then at their retirement dinner you can eat them.” Kangus is caught up in one of Cliffs little known facts. He will not be performing any actions tonight.

Robin Colcord slips into the bar from Melviles and watches Psycho from a booth in the back.

Gary from the Old Town Tavern enters the bar. “Hey what are you doin here?” shouts Sammy. “No hard feelings Sam, I heard you guys have fallen on some hard times. I just came by to give this to Pablo,” he says as he hands a packet of papers to Pabs. “Good luck Sammy, I would hate to see this place close.” And with that he skips out the door.

The phone rings at the bar and CWE picks it up. “Hello Vera,” he glances at Norm who is waving his hands wildly. “No, havent seen Norm all day. I will let him know you called if I see him.”

Sam decides he has to start making some moves. When Pabs gets up and goes to use the bathroom he goes through Pabs jacket pockets and learns everything he needs to know about Pabs.

Harry the Hat enters the bar. He makes his way over to Caito. After a few nifty tricks and a free drink for Harry, Lillith picks up her purse in a huff. “Well I have never been so embarrassed in my life! I will never set foot in here again!”

Caito has been killed. He was town aligned vanilla, Lillith.

13 remain. 24 Hours in the day phase.

Like fuck I’m not getting in on one of my fav shows I still haven’t finished even if it’s been off the air for years.

[Badger]

Got a series link set up as Channel 4 here in the UK play episodes every weekend.

Cliff on Jeopardy is my favourite episode ever.

Also any episode that features Harry the Hat. So underutilised!

[Caito]

A few ppl like to laugh at me, cuz I want a dog, but I want a lazy dog, prob a Bulldog. Something that’ll wanna lay around as much as I do.

I wanna name him Norm, just so I can shout his name like they do on the show.

[Badger]

Dees is back?

How did this guy fuck up?

[Psycho666Soldier]

His most famous fuck up is saying he had information through a whole game, as a town member, when he didn't. When everyone gave him the chance to pony up, he was dead wrong. He continued to do this in subsequent games(I think as a joke mostly). If you ever hear someone asking for the dees, we're talking about information.

To further the story he was won of my students when I was teaching HS. He has CP and we would talk wrestling which lead him here. He thought is was so so smart telling everyone just wait one more day then I will share my info with you.

Justice League was my Mafia shining moment.

[Caito]

Most fun I’ve had in Mafia was Star Wars, when I was the Death Star. I got lynch.... nothing happened and ppl were slightly confused for a day phase. Then I could just keep voting and dropping the hammer.

[Kneeneighbor]

My top 3 includes running LOST, playing lights out in tje super hero one and the time I targeted someone not playing in the game.

[HHHnFoley_Rulez]

I mean if we're reminiscing I really enjoyed the Batman one where there was a "Fabricator" who made up a line in the write-up and really fucked Town up badly. Genius.

I disagree. I think that if Mazer's scum he's playing it extremely well and I would salute him. It's possible but not likely. Now granted, I'm also surprised he's only played 2 games before. Is that true? Feels like he's been around for more.

You on the other hand are still reading scum. I think we shouldn't fuck around and should actually push through on your lynch. Let's end this game in short order, shall we town?

Wow I can't believe that if you guys had listened to me that we would have knocked off the godfather on day 1. It's almost as if a day 1 lynch could be extremely beneficial to town if we have good instincts. Of course me saying this will probably result in scum being mighty quiet so as not to reveal themselves as Grim did in the last game.

"Now Sam, there has to be a reasonable solution," says Dr. Crane who is sitting next to his wife. "Perhaps you can call in a few of your open tabs?"

"Hey lets not get hasty here!" exclaims Norm who is sitting near Paul and Cliff.

"We will just have to have the best month we have had. Yeah, we can do this. Come on guys!"

vote: virm

a random vote, yes, but one with low risk. who knows if he will even contribute (no offense, virm). let him prove he will play the game or else lets kick him out of the bar day1

I am disappointed. A low risk vote? That serves little purpose right now. CWE is here and interacting. If you worry about being wrong, we can invite later. But we're not even 5 hours into the game yet.

What's so wrong with leading a train? That makes me think you're afraid of looking guilty...

[Psycho666Soldier]

Fro, would it have been realistic to vote Grim? He's a pretty valuable player, too. Yet you had that hunch, and wanted to take the risk no matter what.

Nothing is wrong with leading a day 1 lynch. Everything is wrong with leading a quick day 1 lynch.

[Psycho666Soldier]

3 out of 8 in the span of a couple hours isn't so fast that you can't stop it.

Let's try a different angle. Why have you chosen Fro to vote twice in a row when you are scared of him being lynched quick?

[CWE]

Because I said at the end of last game I was voting him. And my first vote didn't count so I voted again to keep my word. And since I'm about now I can monitor and make sure it doesn't bandwagon without discussion.

[Psycho666Soldier]

At this point, is there anything about Fro you find suspicious?

How about myself, or Caito for that matter?

[CWE]

5 posts in? No. Not yet.



Yet.

[Fro]

Fro, would it have been realistic to vote Grim? He's a pretty valuable player, too. Yet you had that hunch, and wanted to take the risk no matter what.

If CWE were to tip his hand of course I would be in favor of it. I don't have a scum reading on him currently. but it's very hard to get a day 1 lynch going so I'm taking a different attempt this time. virm is someone the people can get behind. someone who is probably scum (because I have a hunch and am feeling lucky) and is such a weak player that even if he's town we won't be losing much #VirmLynch2020

[CWE]

Now my new reason for voting Fro is he is mafia bullying Virm. And bullying is wrong.

I do think virm is actually strong player when he participates. His participation is just usually so low that he has little grasp on the game. I do think if he's scum he'll end up making it obvious.

I don't hate your strategy, but I wish someone would start a bandwagon with me.

[Psycho666Soldier]

Now my new reason for voting Fro is he is mafia bullying Virm. And bullying is wrong.

What's your take on the value of virm and Fro's general strategy if it's coming from a place of innocence?

[CWE]

I generally hate day 1 lynches unless we get a can we talk in chat level fuck up.

And if Virm is town, I don't want him gone.

[Mazer]

I'm pretty strong on liking to get my spreadsheet going on night 1, unless there's a strong rationale. You may remember that whole thing with Grim from 7 days ago.


The only post that worries me so far is Fro talking about Virm. I may be an overcautious player, but that seems a little cavalier. We have a fair amount of players who post little, but as far as I've seen the group is at least active on their roles. Last game, the multiple role eliminations on night 1 were very helpful for us.

I assume you mean waiting to get your spreadsheet started. And it's a novel idea. I have been there before.

But with a D1 lynch, we will have a more informed town to make stronger decisions on who to target. And if we happen to get little of use from the night, then at least we will have something else to go on.

You are correct in people turning in roles, but playing with someone who makes few posts with little substance is frustrating and can stall or derail the game.

That said, I'm still not particularly sold on voting a low risk option. That's the equivalent of when everyone wanted to vote Doc every D1 just because he was Doc.

(Some of you either don't know Doc or haven't played with him, but suffice to say, it was an experience playing with him)

[CWE]

Vote Doct

[Psycho666Soldier]

I actually miss Doc. I wish he'd show his face again. Mafia isn't the same without him.

I'm also worried by his general absence.

I will have to wait until I get home from work to really dig in. Wifi and service at work is horrible. You got 7,000+ people all on wifi at the same time during lunch and then your surrounded by miles of steel and concrete. It drives me crazy. I couldnt even load the first page and it took me 5 minutes to load page 2.

From what I have read fro seems to be playing the aggressor this time around. Could be a brazen scum move or he could just be bored af spamming the thread.

I've never been in favor of day 1 lunches or lynches for that matter. This game is a bit bigger than the wrestling one so it wouldnt hurt as much but we also dont know how entirely powerful scum are. What is our ratio even

10 to 5?
11 to 4?

It's been such a long time I looked at mafia mechanics I'm not 100% sure. The only thing I'm sure of is a blind lynch heavily favors scum and could easily result being down 2 townsies in 1 day.

This has all be said before. Lunch break is about done so i will check in after work which will be around 5 to 6 am my time so I can read the posts I am missing.

I assume you mean waiting to get your spreadsheet started. And it's a novel idea. I have been there before.

But with a D1 lynch, we will have a more informed town to make stronger decisions on who to target. And if we happen to get little of use from the night, then at least we will have something else to go on.

You are correct in people turning in roles, but playing with someone who makes few posts with little substance is frustrating and can stall or derail the game.

That said, I'm still not particularly sold on voting a low risk option. That's the equivalent of when everyone wanted to vote Doc every D1 just because he was Doc.

(Some of you either don't know Doc or haven't played with him, but suffice to say, it was an experience playing with him)

You're correct in your read. Last game, for example there was some talk about Grim, which would have helped. But there was just as much on folks that would have hurt us. From what I've seen so far, once I can get some probabilities going with some role elimination and voting behaviors, my perceptions are easier to check vs patterns. Risk/Reward.

Law of mafia averages:

Vote JP

I admit I have no base of reference for the averages.. but.. must be about right...
