OcUK Mafia game thread - Game 2

Well, either the mafia had a sudden bout of conscience, or they just fell asleep!

Gooner Leroy · 27 Jan 2014 at 09:00

Good morning chaps, I see everyone is still here. Have the mafia gone on holiday?

Shamikebab · 27 Jan 2014 at 09:03

How odd

Egon · 27 Jan 2014 at 09:58

Well that's interesting. I didn't even know it was an option.

Gooner Leroy · 27 Jan 2014 at 10:02

I didn't either. I also didn't realise the townie voting ended at 10pm, I thought it was midnight.

A most odd set of events.

I'm guessing one of three things happened:

1) The Mafia were too busy pursuing other business interests and didn't have time to whack anyone
2) There is dissent amongst the ranks and they couldn't agree who to whack
3) They're in fear of reprisals and deliberately opted not to draw any further attention to themselves

Same here, I missed out on my vote.

No matter the reason, it's a major reprieve for the village and we should take advantage and root out the laziest mafia members in history

K1LLSW1TCH · 27 Jan 2014 at 13:03

Very strange!

Pookie Bear · 27 Jan 2014 at 13:28

I reckon that those who have so far failed to exit their homes may be worthy of suspicion. After all, if they couldn't be bothered to murder someone, they're probably still lying in bed!

Shamikebab · 27 Jan 2014 at 13:34

Or...it's all a ruse. Perhaps some of the more talkative members are actually the mafia?

K1LLSW1TCH · 27 Jan 2014 at 14:06

Maybe Pudney was one of the mafia members and the other one is somebody who hasn't been very active so far hence the no-vote.

An interesting theory however it's already been confirmed that Pudney was an innocent victim of vigilante 'justice'.

Oh yeah I remember reading that post now, dying in bed at the moment so forgive my derpness.

Sorry about that but, well, it says 10pm at the bottom of the post. I've set it to 10pm since that way I can post the results and start the next day rolling right away. If I set it to midnight then I'll likely be asleep at the deadline, and won't be able to update until 7am, technically meaning each day/night phase would miss out on those 7 hours.

Nothing to be sorry about, I just had it in my head that it was midnight

As you say, a deadline of 10pm works better.

Brabbinho · 27 Jan 2014 at 18:22

Well waking up alive this morning was a nice feeling and seeing all my neighbours too was a a welcome relief

Are the mafia firing blanks?

Pookie Bear · 27 Jan 2014 at 21:03

It has to be said, I find myself reading this thread over, and over, and over - just to try and identify who might be the naughty ones. I have suspicions, but I'm afraid to voice them in case I get the chop when I go to kip!

Brabbinho · 27 Jan 2014 at 21:05

The trick is to sleep with one eye open

I'm thinking that this is exactly what a mafia member might say, trying to lull us all into a false sense of security...
