IMO, the fact that every single lynch has been a Vord and the Vord are still in firm control of this game is a testament that maybe the balance of this game is pretty weak. Being able to constantly spawn more alts is insane.

I have no idea how this game looks from SH perspective, but I hope it is more fun that it is right now from player perspective.

Lynching known Vord seems utterly useless, but we are also past the point where we can lynch anyone else, thanks to Ultama.

Really... I took it that everyone kept buying the shit that Khell was selling. They had the queen at l-1 the other day. If ultima had directed his troops to Nar instead of Antilious then they might have gotten rid of the queen and the vord.

All 4 factions still have players in the game they loyalists are only in this screwed of a position thanks to early mod kills and some bad luck. Until Ultima went rogue the FA had a good chance to win. The Rebals have a strong shot if they can keep FA on their side. Liosan is the one who should be raging and he is still trying to play and win.

Sure the Vord are able to respawn but they did so in the books as well. We stayed true to the story. Here everyone was able to recognize the threat early and the vord only have 3 territories. I think that the balance is pretty decent actually. Weak Vord (except for the queen) and a lot of power players in the human factions. I think that the momentum is on Khell's side but that the rebels or FA can still pull it out.

Isn't there only 11 alts? Shouldn't it be 6 to lynch, not 7? Or did I miscount.

I believe that Blend left it at seven due to the modkill. We haven't adjusted the amount for any modkill. It will be up to Blend to lower it to 6 or not.

Modkill happened before new day started though, right ?

You're right, good catch, thanks for the heads up. Apparently my counting skills suck!

If the factions had been smart and concentrated on known Vord from the start, they would have found Khell a lot faster. That, mixed with the several modkills, and with Khell just being amazing, is what has allowed the Vord to do so well. Now that the thread is finally trying to get their act together, I don't see Khell surviving much longer.

Yes, they almost had him the other day. That is true. But with his jump ability left, he's going to be slippery for a while again.

That's why the Decoy ability is on a game hours timer rather than a game days timer. If days are shorter, his Decoy timer takes longer to expire in terms of game days, so he has less of a chance to jump before they find him again. I think it's going to be very hard for him to keep them distracted long enough for his timer to expire again, and even if it does, they're all concentrating on all the vord now, which is good. If they all follow the plan that HP put out, and actually hit the majority of the Vord, then they'll have quite a few less baddies on the board come tomorrow. That being said, Khell has already put in an order to move the whole bunch of them to Ceres, so a few of their attacks are going to miss.

[Vengeance]

Blend you had rys cf as a he..

[Path-Shaper]

I have been changing the Vord CFs between HE's and SHE's the whole game, I think, so that shouldn't really be a problem.

MOD NOTE: I made a mistake at the start day when I counted the amount of players left in the game. As there are only 11 players, you only need 6 votes to lynch. Sorry for the mixup.

7 hours and they still hadn't noticed. And they wonder why I preferred suicide.



(and yeah, it's worth whatever it costs for this post.)

So can we have Gnaw banned from Mafia for a while for this give that it was very clear in the OPs that you are not to post out of your game alt until this game is over? I'm sure it's no big surprise to anyone that Gnaw was Ultama, but he's just pushed one button too many now.

Leave it be. I am sure that he will take some time away from mafia. He is on everyones list and was modkilled from the game and banned from SH until after the game is over. I don't think there is really a way to ban someone from signing up for a mafia game unless they are banned from the site. Which I would not ask for and I doubt that silencer would do it. It is up to the people who post games if they wish for him to play in them.

That's been a big reason the Vord have survived for so long. Everyone's just been broadcasting on thread exactly what they're going to do, so how to you not expect Khell to know exactly how to counteract what they're doing? The only time that some attacks actually hurt Khell was when people lied on thread about something (i.e. Pran Chole lying about where the Immortals were going).
