Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Five: Con Crud

We're not going to get anywhere with us splitting the vote between Barbossa and Sattler. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Five: Con Crud
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
And there it is, if it wasn't already transparent enough. What a petty revenge vote. Oroku flipped town after Barbossa went so hard against him. I voted for Oroku because I wanted to see which one was scum between the two. I have been suspicious of Barbossa for days due to fluffy posts and other various issues like joining bandwagons with little explanation. The revenge vote above is further evidence and proof. Don't take my defense of you being absent as proof that you're 100% town. I believe you lean town, not that you're confirmed in any way. I'm willing to change my vote to Sattler to vote her off. I believe she, the Joker, and Barbossa are all scum. With 7 of us we need a majority of 4. Expect the scum to vote for me (like Barbossa already has) to try and get rid of me. That leaves potentially three votes on me, which means the remaining town need to coalesce together and vote out one of the three I listed. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Five: Con Crud
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Doctor Who has been flying under the radar too much. Most scum like to fly under the radar while still appearing active. This leads me to believe she's likely a power role and now you're trying to kill him off after presumably rolecopping last night. Barbossa supported the lynch for Oroku yesterday and was confident she was scum. Sattler and Joker supported this lynch. Yesterday I said it was one or the other. There's clearly a town vigilante out there unless for some strange and bizarre reason the scum get two kills, which would be utterly ridiculous. Calling out a night kill for the vigilante on someone that you think is scum is not a "scum move". Vote for Barbossa. He's scum. I'm town. We're called town, not "loyal cosplayers". Anybody that is actually town knows that. Saying "loyal cosplayers" is just a different way of him saying town perhaps. I call the innocents town in every single game I play, even when they're called things like "loyalists", "innocents", whatever. I call the scum "scum" every game as well no matter what they're called in the game. Everyone's alignment the next day has come out as "town" so there's no reason for Doctor Who to assume that our roles are "loyal cosplayers" since they've all come back as "town". This is a flimsy suspicion thinking that Doctor Who is scum because he's calling people loyal cosplayers. Perhaps you're using that miller claim as scum or you're just severely misguided. Not sure which. I could be totally wrong on some of these suspicions, but I believe I'm correct on at least a few. -

I know who I'm voting for: Vote: Barbossa / Khscarymovie4 Yesterday I said that if one was town the other must be scum. Next on my list is the Joker. New or not, sometimes new players are thrown into the deep end and made scum in their first game. Finally is Ellie Sattler. Interesting that the vigilante finally made a move or perhaps has already been active and the scum killer was blocked at one point. I'm satisfied with this vote. All three of the people I listed voted for Oroku yesterday, myself included because I wanted to test the theory of which of the two was scum. (Barbossa or Oroku) Don't know about Hera, she could legitimately be a miller. Willing to trust Doctor Who I suppose even though he voted for Oroku. Vote for Barbossa for a better and safer future. Night kill Sattler or the Joker. If both come back as scum then kill the other. If one comes back as scum and I'm wrong on the other, I'll reassess. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Four: Notice Me, Senpai!
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
I'm not sure I see it that way. He hardly cast suspicion upon me by claiming that I was the person blocked. Saying that he blocked me on Night One doesn't exactly incriminate me considering there was an assumed scum kill that night. Even if his intention was to try to make me look suspicious, it's typical Mafia 101 that whenever the scum tries to implicate another innocent player in their dying gasp, it's usually an attempt to try to get the town to lynch the innocent after the scum player flips as scum the next day. Moody is a very experienced mafia player, he'd know this. As for the lynches against Doc Brown, I suppose it does fit in that he's a bandwagoner. However, the last two days have been near unanimous for the lynched person. When Finn said he was scum, almost everyone voted for him. When Moody was outed as scum, everyone voted for him. That leaves primarily the Day One votes as what we should really look at, as well as the mid-Day Two votes that Chell listed above. For the Wonder Woman vote, it seems that Doc Brown and Oroku voted for him, two people that have been voted for today, in addition to Moody that we know is scum. That leaves Barbossa and Ellie Sattler. Barbossa is the one casting the initial vote for Oroku and has been out for her all day today, so it's not likely that they would be on the same team unless they're trying a power play. This leads me to believe that either Barbossa or Oroku are scum, but likely not both. As for Doc Brown, who has been a middle ground person the whole game, the people, or rather person, accusing him has also been a middle of the road player. For me, at least today, it's a choice between four players. Ellie Sattler, Barbossa, Oroku, or Doc Brown. Hidden in that list is most likely at least one scum member. At this point I'm conflicted as to who to go with. As I said, at least one of those four is probably scum, but I'm struggling who to go with. For now, I think I'll: Vote: Oroku Karai / KotZ Based on my theory, if Oroku flips town, I'm inclined to believe that Barbossa is scum. If Oroku flips scum, I'm about 75% sure that Barbossa is town, but not completely as it could be some kind of a next level play. Beyond that, out of the remaining players, it's possible that the Joker is scum. Since this is his first game, I don't know his play style. He and Chell did vote for Moody on Day Two before Chell switched her vote and apparently the Joker didn't. Batgirl is the only one that I can't get a full read on yet. Doctor Who has been noticeably absent, but I'm not sure if he's trying to fly under the radar or not. If something changes or a revelation is made, I'll switch my vote. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Four: Notice Me, Senpai!
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Believing what I'm saying to be scummy isn't metagaming. I'm admitting that what I said yesterday was scummy because I didn't fully trust an investigator. Unknown why Moody was trying to cast suspicion on me yesterday. I don't have a power role if that's what the scum are concerned about. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Four: Notice Me, Senpai!
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Hmmm. Well I obviously know how this looks for me with what I said yesterday in regards to Wonder Woman and others. Even though I voted for Moody, I still was extremely suspicious of Wonder Woman and her claims. I'm presuming that the scum went after her last night, presumably to try and silence the conduit between the investigator and the rest of the town. I'm sincerely hoping it wasn't the vigilante, despite how they might have felt about her. The one night kill means that someone didn't go out killing last night. It's possible that with 14 of us, a vigilante wasn't included as it might've made the game go faster if two people died every night. Then again, it's equally possible that Legolas was our vigilante and the scum got lucky on Night One. I'm hoping that Finn wasn't the vigilante and allowed himself to be lynched. There's ten of us left now. One scum is down. With fourteen players it's likely that there were at least three scum, probably four. Out of us ten, three are likely scum with seven of us town left, provided there isn't a neutral, but I doubt there is one in such a small game. I still have Barbossa on my list and Batgirl's suggestion that KotZ is scummy as well is equally viable. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Three: In The (Ball) Pits
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
I trust Wonder Woman about as far as I can throw her -- wait, that's very far. She's been up for the vote for the past two days, which makes me suspicious that anyone would come out and trust her. Yesterday she hinted yesterday that she was part of the town block which had magically formed. There's always a chance she was investigated on Night One as town and the investigator reached out to her. In addition, it's likely that the real investigator, if Wonder Woman's contact is not, would reach out to a surrogate that was investigated positive over the last two nights, and counter the claim. Unless Legolas was the investigator and the scum got very lucky on Night One. As for Moody, the last minute claim of a role is always expected before being lynched is always expected. Trying to target me two nights in a row is suspect in itself, and shows that you're trying to now cast suspicion upon me before you die. I'm not sure why you'd try to block me twice even though the kill on Night One was likely scum (unless we have a very inexperienced vigilante) If you do turn out to be town, at the same time I'm not immediately going to throw Wonder Woman under the bus. It's entirely possible that she's being misled by someone. The scum wouldn't sacrifice one of their own in thread to try and get rid of a role like the blocker if they managed to rolecop or track Moody on Night One or Two, that's just illogical when they could simply kill them the next night. All the same, I'll Vote: Mad-Eye Moody / Mostlytechnic even though I'm uneasy about it because I just don't completely trust where the accusation is coming from. Consider my suspicious all you'd like tomorrow if Moody turns out to be scum. It's just my opinions and vibes. -
Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day Three: In The (Ball) Pits
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
I give up. Hopefully Finn reveals some much needed information in the conclusion. No scum kill last night could've meant a conversion. Potentially bad news for us considering we haven't even found a member of the scum team yet but something to keep in mind. I agree, however, that the scum killer could've been blocked last night or the target protected, but for the vigilante to not kill two nights in a row? Perhaps they're a pacifist. -
I don't know about power role. I made the mistake in one game years back of just rolling over as a vanilla townie and letting myself get lynched so someone else on the town more important than me wouldn't be. I was extremely defeatist and didn't even try to defend myself. It was one of the worst mafia performances I've ever had. So, even as a vanilla townie you should still try to defend yourself from being lynched. In terms of numbers, a vanilla town is still important to keeping the balance in our favor. I think it's just because it's his first game on Eurobricks and as he's said he hasn't read (or heard of) some of the most classic games, even though they're horribly out of date. He's said he's played mafia on other forums and in other forms and I have no reason to doubt him, but playing mafia on Eurobricks is a completely different thing. We have our own meta here and our own way of doing things. I should have rephrased saying that a fair amount of people are on the wagon and that some have given their reasoning.
-
I don't really follow or agree with this vote. It seems like people are way too eager to get rid of Wonder Woman, with people just instantly jumping on without giving any explanation or reasoning. Day One is the time to vote because there's no reason other than there needs to be a lynch. Day Two is often just as bad, but as I've said earlier, Day Two is when we're supposed to be analyzing the vote patterns of Day One and who we got rid of. But we decided not to lynch on Day One. If Wonder Woman is who we absolutely we've decided upon, I'll change my vote, but for now I don't think she's the one.

[WIP] Transparent yellow turmeric dyed Lego windshield
Bob replied to Trekkie99's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Quite a good idea, and potentially useful for people that aren't full purists that don't want to get gouged online when rebuilding old Classic Space sets. You should try this piece next: And see what the results are. Would be very curious. The trans-clear ones are extremely cheap. I got dozens of them off of a PaB wall about a decade ago. -
Perhaps the greatest pirate who has ever sailed Earth's seven seas. I'll have you know I've sailed the many seas of the Galaxy and beyond! If that's the case then she deserves to be voted off. That's the worst thing a vanilla townie can do. You're not always necessarily meant to lay over and die, but you're not meant to false claim and worm you way out of a lynch that way. I don't know if that's likely. In any case the investigator should stay far away from her as she's likely being watched quite frequently. If it comes down to it and she's one of the few left and still unconfirmed we can just vote her off then.
-
I'll let it slide this time. I also deleted from your quote when you said I was hypocritical for spreading out votes today while calling out people (and you in particular) for spreading out votes yesterday. Yes, this is true. I'm being a big hypocrite and I'm sorry. You'll learn quickly in mafia that you're damned if you do and damned if you don't when it comes to people suspecting you. Sometimes you're just screwed anyway you slice it.
-
Some interesting votes straight off the bat. Once again the vote is being spread out with some going straight to Moody. I suppose I'm going to be a hypocrite though because I'm going to: Vote: Hector Barbossa / Khscarymovie4 For fluffy posts, general unhelpfulness, trying to appear like he's making long posts. Is suddenly okay with the idea of a lynch today even though he was against a lynch yesterday. Not much has changed between today and yesterday besides the death of Legolas. If anything, to me, this is a repeat of Day One. There's no new helpful information. If you were against a lynch on Day One because of a lack of information, you should be against one on Day Two because of the same lack of information. This just seems like you're eager to get rid of someone without the baggage of a Day One lynch. Yeah I guess so, but usually you have a top list of people that you suspect. That's the list that I would have expected.
-
Arrr that be hurting my feelings. I be the same salty sea dog that sailed the seven seas of Krypton. Before it blew up. Just seemed a bit odd that you went to look at Moody in particular, but I suppose that's not the strangest thing that's happened today. My backside got kicked last night most violently. Not always. Sometimes the scum team isn't always the most organized on Day One. Day One, in the past, has moved very quickly and the minds of the players have changed on the slightest of whims. Nowadays and particularly Day One in this game, a lot of player's picked a person and stuck with their vote, which can help the scum team become organized. However when players change their votes wildly it can change the plans of the scum team. Due to timezones, not all the members of the team will always be on. Some work, some have other responsibilities, etc. During Day Two, after they've learned some night action results, they will usually become more organized and better prepared and lay down a framework for future days, but on Day One it can mostly be a random mess for the scum team, at least from what I've experienced. Sorry if Mr. Mad-Eye "Fluff Sheriff" Moody thinks this is in the very slightest of fluff. Just thought I would share a bit of information and my opinions on that matter. However like Moody I too would like to learn who you suspect. You dodged a bit on that question if you don't mind me saying. Sorry if you think I'm picking on you because you're new. You say though that you're suspicious of those who spread out their vote but you're also suspicious of some of the people that voted for Ellie and Hera. That's quite a lot of people. If you didn't think there's anything in that long passage, why would you post it and take up space in the thread? Be careful, Mad Eye may be the Fluff Sheriff, but I'm the Fluff Deputy. I'm of the mind that sometimes Day One lynches are important because it gives us voting patterns and ways of analyzing our thoughts. I thought the wagon against Sattler was bogus, but perhaps I should've voted for her so we could be closer to a lynch and examined what that meant in regards to who voted for her and why. "I don't like the way Bob is roleplaying! Let's lynch him for no other reason but that!" I know you're new, but that's Western Mafia/Mystery Castle/Baritones-era 2008/2009 level of lynching logic.
-
Would you not say there's a difference? Barbossa quoted about eight or more different people and then wrote about four or five lines on how it is important to understand people's intentions or some sort of fluffy statement. I wrote a detailed explanation on people splitting the vote in order to potentially block the lynch of someone that could be scum. I made quite a lot of observations and comments in my first post of the day. Why are you trying to belittle and diminish that? Why do you think there can be no method to the potential "madness" of placing random votes on Day One?
-
Oh, I'm still alive. I haven't been metagamed. My foreboding in the sign-up thread must have deterred people. Slightly surprised about Legolas' affiliation. Back to square one for me I suppose. Still some people besides him jumped on the Ellie Sattler bandwagon. Perhaps there are some people that spread their votes around so that she wouldn't be lynched on the chance that she's actually scum. Both of these are distinct possibilities if she's town or scum. There's quite a lot of one person votes that went to various people. For instance: Joker/Asphalt voting Superman Barbossa/Khscarymovie4 voting Batgirl Doctor Who/Lady K voting Moody Karai/KotZ voting Wonder Woman Myself and StickFig voting for Legolas Yes, I included myself voting for Legolas near the end of the day. Hera/StickFig voted for Legolas early on, making that originally a one person vote and then I voted for him for reasons I outlined yesterday. (His Miller explanations, his joining on the Sattler bandwagon, thinking he's generally suspect.) Granted I was wrong about him as we can see today but hindsight is 20/20. On Day One, it's very difficult to identify a scum member. It's happened before as most people in this game can attest to and it's very satisfying to see, however usually people are just firing blindly on Day One and hoping that something sticks. There has been bouncing logic throughout the years on whether or not a lynch on Day One is a good thing. To some, it usually guarantees the death of a townie with a small chance of nabbing a scum. To others, the lynch reveals voting patterns and sets up the investigator, protector, and blocker. I mean, was that really necessary? I'd call that fluff I think. Filling up space and making an extraordinarily long post so you appear to have contributed a lot. It's an extremely useful tactic that you can go back on and say "look at all I've posted, I'm a useful townie!" I know this tactic because I've done it loads of times myself before. You might fool some people's eyes, but you won't fool this Kryptonian's dual face eyes, because four eyes are better than two, even if the other two are covered by my hair piece. Yesterday I said you were on my list because you were the false-pretender pirate. Now you're rising on my list because of useless fluff posts. Plus you spread your vote out yesterday on a random person. What are you trying to say that we don't know? If you are any sort of power role then you are experienced enough to not even hint in thread that you have a power role, so what are you trying to get at? I'll end the mystery. I made a joke night action last night that I wanted to go around the convention center and find a pirate hat. Oh that's right, I'm supposed to be a pirate aren't I? Arrrr. Shiver me timbers.
-
Thanks for that! I'll certainly try to practice a bit. If my scissor cutting skills become too unsteady, I've got a paper cutter. I rarely use it to cut so small, but I'm certain it can be done.
-
Greetings everyone! Apologies if this is the wrong location or if an identical topic for this exists. I don't necessarily frequent this part of the forums as I've never really made custom stickers or decals for my figures. I'm running an RPG as part-GM for my online friendship group. Initially we just used word descriptions however I had the idea to use my LEGO stockpile to create set pieces for the RP. It's a space RP so I'll potentially post in the Space Forums the main ship, but I digress. For the next big set piece, I need to create a Galactic Council Chamber room. This comes in two parts. While the room itself is nearly done pending some orders, I've created custom flags for each of the 27 civilizations. My question is, how small do you suppose I should resize each image to fit it on this white 2x2 square flag: I plan on potentially using stickers from a label sheet and printing them out on that. Are there any other better ideas? Secondly, since it is a council chamber, I'll also need to print each civilization name on a 1x2 white tile: Again, how small should I make the font so it will successfully fit on each tile? Is it possible to make the font that small or do you suppose I should try it some other way? As I said, this is my first time trying this sort of thing and I am very much so open to new ideas. Thank you so much!

Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day One: Super Mafia Bros

Kintobor's Cosplay Mafia Day One: Super Mafia Bros
Bob replied to Kintobor's topic in LEGO Mafia and Role-Play Games
Arrr...What the blue blazes did I ever do to you?? I've never met a man with such a vendetta against me in any of these games...of life on this here board. I think the last time I was voted off for roleplaying was in Witch Hunt Mafia when I proposed we should have fish tacos. Yar har lads, I've seen some right stupid votes being thrown out today, along with silly alliances proposed and various claims, yet I've been keeping me eye open just like I said I would and despite the vitriol thrown around by some or one, I've decided to: Vote: jluck / Legolas Twinleaf I too have been around long enough to see the Miller used in games. I'm not going to go back to every previous game and fact check Legolas' claims that every Miller claim has been a townie, because there's been many games and quite frankly I don't remember which ones had the Miller in them, even the ones I was apart of. Let's start at the beginning. Hera comes in and says first thing that she's the Miller after being called out for not speaking. That sparks a flurry of conversation about the Miller in which Finn is confused about it, but then decides to blame me for it for some reason. Next, the False Pretender Pirate Barbossa arrives to tell us all about the Miller and to direct us towards Legolas for his sage advice on the Miller. So then, Ellie wades in and says that she finds the Miller claim as suspicious as Finn does, and then ultimately votes for Hera. Coming full circle to Legolas posting to tell us all about the miller and that he's voting for Ellie because she's "zealous", jumping onto Doc Brown's vote which he claims was meant to be "a joke but partially serious". Ultimately there's now a lynch wagon on Ellie Sattler that nearly led to her being killed were it not for a very split and jumbled vote. Regardless, it's very convenient that this particular vote spiraled into what it is so quickly. I'm not saying everyone who voted for Ellie is scum, just that it's worth watching. I mean. Arr, I had been talking like a pirate the whole time, I swear. Ahoy.
