Road Rash Mafia: Discussion Thread (BAR 6)

[The Soul Of Philly]

Since I need half of the votes to be allowed to role claim and character claim. I'm madame x with a one shot message ability. It got doubled so I still have one to use. I made that message hopin that those three would either slip up or come forward with info and they did.

I'm starting to think Jules is scum though as the idea that his gameplay is distant makes sense and him not being around on night 5 and Lawson not making a kill seems right. I know I'm town

Unvote: AC
F.o.s: jules

[Michael Callahan]

-sigh-

And this game was getting awesome.

I'm sorry TJ but I'm going to have to correct you on the rules;

Jul 3, 2012 15:41:35 GMT -4 Michael Callahan said:

1. Character Claiming will get you mod-killed instantly and banned from my next three games as Mafia host. No hinting, alluding, coded messages or referencing to who you might be. There will be a zero tolerance rule on this.

2. No Role-Claiming until you reach half the necessary votes required for a lynch.

While you're right that you're allowed to role-claim when you have the required votes, I specifically started that character claiming is forbidden and will be clamped on harshly. You have revealed your character as clearance (which in Mafia is strictly forbidden) and I have no choice I'm afraid but to mod-kill you. :/

MODKILLED: TJ, Madame X, 1-Shot Mod-Poster

[Michael Callahan]

All night actions to be sent in as per usual. You are on right hand drive so powers will be as stated.

[Michael Callahan]

No write-up. Been busy.

NIGHT RESULTS ARE IN;

BUSTED: A.C. Smith, Walleye, Town Tracker w/ 2-Shot Jailkeeper (Alternate Night Follower)

DAY 8 NOW BEGINS.

WITH THREE PLAYERS ALIVE, IT TAKES 2 TO SCORE A LYNCH.

ALIVE PLAYERS:
1. Crown Jules
2. Kris
3. Manic

[Kris]

Since I'm obviously cleared, and ManiC has been cleared...

Vote: Jules

[Kris]

Actually, wait. No.

Unvote

I'm gonna let you two speak up.

[[ManiC]]

Yeah... like I said; I've been suspicious of Jules due to his distant gameplay, and scum didn't make any night actions whilst Jules was away.

TJ's recruitment theory also plays out quite well here; if you were Blade who would you rather recruit: Jules of myself?

Vote: Jules

[[ManiC]]

EBWODP:
*or Jules

Bastard phone -_-

[Kris]

Well, that's enough to reveal your role, Jules... which I have an inkling of, but the confirmation never hurt.

[Jules]

As I'm at half way to lynch, so I can reveal my role. I'm town cop.

Night 1 - investigated myself (told innocent)
Night 2 - investigated myself (told guilty) - I did this to check out a hunch my role would reverse.
Night 3 - investigated A.C. Smith (told innocent)
Night 4 - investigated Metro (told inconclusive)
Night 5 - No action (previously explained)
Night 6 - investigated Metro (told inconclusive, but he died anyway)
Night 7 - investigated Manic, since he was the only left (as I knew A.C. & Kris' alignment) and I had to make sure (told guilty)

This should be pretty simple. That meta-reasoning is a moot point, since I could give just as plausible reasoning why Blade would recruit Manic over me. The evidence of genuine night actions is that Manic is guilty.

vote: Manic

[Michael Callahan]

MOD-KILL~! for violating the terms of Jailkeep.

MOD-KILL: Crown Jules, Lawson, Mafia Cop (originally Town Cop with Insane Alternate Results, special condition that his death at the hands of mafia night kill would lead to conversion rather than death)

Well that was a fucking disaster. Thanks for playing guys, I appreciate you sticking through it despite how much I screwed up. I apologise for what was a remarkably poorly modded mafia, I'll have stuff up when I come back from ASDA and have indulged a B&E.

[[ManiC]]

Wait, what?

[Michael Callahan]

Basically last night when A.C. Smith was deaded, he used his jailkeeper action (there's variants on this but the defined role as per the PM was that it'd basically silence a player and render him voteless) on Farquhar for an entire day phase. Farquhar who was informed of this VIA quicktopic (as I have done with every other Mafia Night Action) didn't see his message and thus unknowingly violated the terms of his jailkeep. This is a mod-kill offence in Mafia unfortunately.

I'm posting role PM's in just a sec but won't be doing a fallout thread or asking for feedback. If anyone wants to query me about any night results, feel free to send me a PM.

[Kris]

I... what.

So in unvoting and insisting that both ManiC and Jules had a chance to speak, I unknowingy played into A.C.'s hands and prompted the last remaining scummer into getting modkilled?

...that is both awesome and sucky all at once.

You're welcome! ;D

I'll be posting my thoughts on this game later (probably tonight). The one thing I'll say is to Callahan: Don't be hard on yourself! I didn't think this game was terribly-modded at all; on the flip side, I thought it was fun.

Welcome Crown Jules to Road Rash Mafia, you are Lawson.

The quintessential man of the 90's, you're a criminal defence lawyer living the American Dream with a wife and two beautiful children. Simply put, you've got it made. Perfection doesn't exist in this world though and when you live your life in such a bland and uncontroversial manner you eventually start looking for the cheap thrills to keep your life exciting. Everyone has their vices and while many would assume a young, handsome man like yourself would be into partying or affairs, you get your kicks from high octane action on your custom built motorcycle. One of the leaders of the group, you're respected by your peers for being the man in the suit who's not afraid to cut loose.

As a lawyer you have access to records on the other rashers which your every day cat won't have. With that in mind you're just the man for working out who the rat racers are who're trying to shut down the circuit. In Mafia Terms this essentially means you have Cop Powers.

Role Summary: Lawson - Town Cop

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome Kris to Road Rash Mafia, you are Public Enemy No. 1..

One of the only female rashers on the circuit, your moniker is not a nickname but a statement of your authority. You're a tough as nails, no nonsense, uncompromising, radical feminist and anarchist biker who wields a chain with vicious efficiency. You don't win races often due to getting too caught up in your fights but you're never far behind. What you don't make up in speed and agility, you make up for in being instrumental in screwing up someone's race. Even though your race winning record isn't fantastic, your carnage wreaking record is and that makes you one of the most feared rashers in all of racing history.

4Nobody ever leaves a fight with you unscathed and if you wish to pick an enemy then there's very little anyone can do to stop you. In Mafia terms this makes you the town vigilante, someone who can beat the Hell out of anyone as they see fit.

Role Summary: P.E. No. 1. - Town Vigilante

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome, Johnny Rebel to Road Rash Mafia, you are Ikira.

What's up, brah? You're an effortlessly cool Japanese import who doesn't like to take the racing too seriously and does it more for the fun of getting out on the bike rather than thrill riding. Just because you're laidback though doesn't mean you're a pushover. Quite the opposite in fact. If anyone dares push you, they usually get a club or even a nunchuk to the face and quickly find themselves kissing asphalt for having the audacity to mess with the most chilled dude in the group.

Given that you're so laid back you're usually quite happy to sit back and watch the world pass you by, giving you an insight into other people without drawing too much attention to yourself. As such you are a Watcher. So keep your eyes peeled and it could be you that saves the town.

Role Summary: Ikira – Town Watcher

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome, The Soul to Road Rash Mafia. You are Madame X.

A true enigma of the racing circuit, the difference between what is discussed about you and what is actually known is legendary with all sorts of lore and mythos about your very being. All that's confirmed is that you're easily the most talented racer on the circuit. With the exception of the player, nobody else matches you for weapon skill, top speed, handling and straight up raw ability when they're out on the bikes. The superstitious of the Rashers say that you have some sort of superpower and connect with spirits who guide you along the race towards victory. Others say that your Japanese made bikes are custom built for awesome . Whatever the answer is, you're one incredible racer and equally epic geisha.

As an unnaturally talented racer, you gain one of the most powerful actions in the game. Your ability to connect with “the spirits” is legendary to the point where you can summon phantasms to visit the other racers with messages. Once during the game, you may relay any message you like and post it anonymously through me. Finally, you're one of three racers that's not affected by the direction of the road you ride on.

Welcome, C.J. Gates to Road Rash Mafia. You are Natasha.

As the daughter of young, conservative, rich New England parents you took the ball of the teenage instinct to rebel and ran with it. It's to be expected, right? Not even you realised at the time just how much trouble you'd get yourself into. Through the plight of teenage rebellion you discovered Socialism and henceforth Marxism which lead to you gaining your first conviction aged 14 when you launched a petrol bomb near a crowd of police officers during a workers rights protest at your fathers steel mill. Your defence lawyer was a Rasher and it was through him that you ended up racing bikes. Once you were old enough you stole money from your father and left, racing bikes with your new friends to keep you amused while preaching your centre-left politics.

The main thing about you is that you're extremely well liked. Nobody out on the race course will pick a fight with you because you're almost like a princess of the group, the little sister everyone wants to look after. Not even the police will get involved with you because of your beautiful smile and charming ways. You're basically immune from Night Kills.

Role Summary: Natasha – Town Bulletproof

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome, Manic to Road Rash Mafia. You are Biff.

Coming from that dollar dollar money that's oh so important in the expensive hobby of street racing, you're the son of a wealthy Hollywood movie director and have everything that a young man could ever want. Money, fame, women? You have it all within arms reach. With your fresh cropped yuppie hair, your finely pressed suits and your clean shaven face you almost remind me of a certain American Hero but alas, you're not him, you're Biff. You're quite simply the playboy of the group. You're socially competent, fun and a true philanthropist who gets his rocks off with the one thing money can't buy; the adrenaline rush of street racing on your American made motorcycle.

You show your devotion to the rasher group by flashing your wallet whenever the cops get their hands on one of your friends. Bribery and bail means that you keep rashers out of jail and on the road. Thus once a night you may elect to protect a player and should that person get targeted for Night Killing, you'll be there to save them. In Mafia terms this makes you a Town Doctor.

Role Summary: Biff – Town Doctor[/B]

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome, Captain Metro to Road Rash Mafia. You are Scab Boy.

You are the heavily disfigured reject Rasher who's social incompetence and freaky persona makes you the universally sanctioned hate figure of the group. You're always the victim of the Rasher's funny but often cruel pranks and taunting laughs who torment you well in the knowledge that you're on the verge of cracking. Only one member of the group can actually stand you and that's because she doesn't have it in her to hate anyone, thus is your negative role in the grup..

As a complete outcast who gets by on what very little money you win, your gross facial disfigurements lead to your cruel treatment at the hands of the other Rashers. With that in mind you have the role of a hated townie and thus require one less lynch vote than usual to be killed. If suspicions are cast on you then people won't think twice to kick your ass out of the group.

Welcome, Stefan Raab to Road Rash Mafia. You are Lucky Luc.

An arrogant French rasher who's penchant for Christian Dior is only matched by his love for street racing, you're easily the most irritating racer in the game. Why? Because no matter how fast my bike is, you seem to be able to catch up, overtake and do an infuriating little shuffle from side to side right in front of me while you drop hopelessly useless oil cans that do little to other racers but make you crash into something like a donkey or an RV and die horribly. For this reason nobody is willing to save you should anything bad happen to you.

As an annoying, overbearing distraction you quite often lead to making me crash which is always a pain in the ass. This in some regards makes you a bit like a Roleblocker. Because you're so irritating you get no protection from doctors and if you're marked for death there is no saving you.

Role Summary: Lucky Luc – Town Macho/Roleblocker

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome, A.C. Smith to Road Rash Mafia. You are Walleye.

When you hail from the Barruru Wetlands in Australia where you're surrounded by things that will kill you, every day is a fight for survival. Having lived out back all your life for the last thirty years while dodging snakes and crocodiles and hippo's and all other manner of horrifically dangerous animals you've developed amazing survival instincts and have been approached on more than one occasion to run a reality show. You value your privacy too much though and opt out to preserve that. Apparently though, being a hard-ass hunter-gather isn't enough for you to get the thrill seeking that you need in your life so you race bikes too when you're not punching a jellyfish in the face. Your incredible toughness and experience with hunting gives you some unique powers.

First of all, you're an excellent hunter. This makes you a natural for the Tracker role. Once a night you may select a player and see who they visit with their night actions but not what they did. That's not it though. Your deadly array of weapons that you use to hunt animals out back in Oz often find their way onto the racetrack, the main one being your ol' reliable cattle prod. Now there's only so much battery in it but instead of following someone you may choose to jab a racer with 1,000 volts which will not only take them out of the race but render them hospitalised for the next day phase and thus unable to speak or vote.

Role Summary: Walleye – Tracker/2-Shot Jailkeeper

Victory Condition: You win when all threats to the Rashers are eliminated.

Welcome, Chaz Dillinger to Road Rash Mafia. You are Sergio.

Coming from the most deprived of slums in Argentina, you well and truly have escalated out of a bleak existence. Having been racing dirt bikes in the sewer works since you twelve years old earning money to feed your family and learning the valuable skills that would make you a top contender in the big money street racing circuit. Having tapped into the Rashers via your connection with the Argentinian hotels, you bring a huge amount of biking expertise and a straight-up bruiser style with you to every race.

As a member of the Rashers with a life long history in making money from fixing bikes, you're an extremely capable mechanic and can fix most scuffles but due to insufficient funds this isn't an operation that can be done repeatedly. Essentially you have a one shot resurrection ability but with the stipulation that you can only bring back someone killed by lynch (mis-lynch). You can't “resurrect” someone who's been arrested (night kill). You're one of the three racers not affected by what side of the road you're on.

Role Summary: Sergio - Town 1-Shot Resurrection

Welcome, Gubayama Takagi to Road Rash Mafia[.B]. You are Nina.

You are the sexy, non-butch Ice Queen on the track who hails from Eastern Europe and has all the attitude to boot. Little is known about your past but what is known is that you're a fast, dirty-fighting racer who always likes to try and set racers up for something fatal by paralysing them with your deadly mace spray (which I never quite figured out how it would work given that all the Rashers wear helmets). Beyond your brutal racing etiquette (or lack of), you tend to follow the crowd and don't really start fights on your own or finish them for that matter making you something of an ideal band wagoner.

Due to your pack dog like mentality when dealing with people, you have been given the special role of “Crowd Follower” in that you're a double-voter but you can only vote when there's already a vote on someone and you can not vote when your vote leads to a lynch. Any attempts to do so will lead to your vote failing and a loss of voting powers for the rest of the day.

Role Summary: Nina – Town Crowd Follower/Double Voter

Welcome, Blade to Road Rash Mafia. You are Captain Sakurai.

A Japanese highway cop with a permanent smile on your face, your sole concern with Rashing is the danger it poses to pedestrians and the racers themselves. You're reluctant to hold up the law because you don't want to spoil anybody's fun but it's your job to do so and when there are lives at risk you are compelled to intervene. It's this fair and honest yet reliable attitude which lead to Interpol selecting you as the leader of their new Traffic Squad Unit designed specifically to dismantle the Rashers. When you arrest Rashers you are always apologising and being courteous towards people but you're no push-over. You uphold the law with warmth because unlike your two colleagues, Smythe and Eiskopf you're not a complete bastard.

With the most accolades as an arresting officer, you have been hand selected to lead the squad of three cops assigned with the task of bringing down the Rashers. With two other officers at your command, Officer Smythe and Officer Eiskopf, you form the Interpol Anti-Street Racing Unit. (IASRU) As such, you are immune from night kills, you have executive choice over the use of your cohorts powers and you appear innocent to “Cop” investigations. There is also a player out there that if targeted for Night Kill will actually be recruited to the squad but beware that his recruitment will come at a cost.

Role Summary: Sakurai – Mafia Godfather/Bulletproof

Victory Condition: You win when all of the Rashers have been incarcerated.

Welcome, Goodburn to Road Rash Mafia. You are Officer Smythe.

You're a smart-mouthed, witty English traffic cop who's hatred for bikers consumes every facet of your working life. Growing up on the Isle of Man where the Tourist Trophy (TT) races are held annually is where it all started. Rude, angry bikers would jeopardise the natural beauty of the land by racing splutteringly outdated bikes on your island and leave litter for the locals to pick up and it would make you sick. It's this hatred that lead to you joining the police as a Traffic Cop so you can have the best seat in the house to bust some heads when the TT's start up again. Despite being such a bitter, angry young man you have a flawless record in regards to discipline. This is because you are so terrifyingly brutal that nobody ever dares register complaints against you. For that reason alone you have been hand-picked by Interpol to join Officers Sakurai and Eiskopf in bringing down the Rashers Gang.

As an officer of one of the best funded and equipped police forces in the world as well as an Isle of Man native, you've inevitably grown up around engines. As such you are a highly capable driver and have experience in command of a number of different vehicles. The vehicles you can use will each have a different effect on the way you conduct Night Kills, should you choose to use them. They can only be used once, however.

Police Motorcycle – Using this method will make you so blindingly fast it'll be like you're invisible. Arrests conducted with the Motorcycle will make you invisible to tracking and following but not to roleblocking, police investigation or killing.

Police Jeep – A heavy duty vehicle good for ramming the scumbag rashers off the road, if you use your Police Jeep to ram them off the road you may choose a second player where you will get a 50% chance of hitting them too.

Police Helicopter – The steel vulture of Beelzebub, this mighty titan is impossible to avoid. Using this to conduct your nightkill is as good as a hitman ability in that it can not be stopped. However there's only a 50% chance this will work either.

Welcome Bacon to Road Rash Mafia. You are Officer Eiskopf.

You are Eiskopf, the incredibly camp yet ruthless German police officer and the only member of Interpol's hand-selected traffic squad who isn't a traffic cop by choice. With notable credentials in the German Armed Forces, you were short listed to join some of the most elite units in German Armed Policing but your irresistible urges and a very corrupt, tangled love affair with your Chief of Police lead to you being swept under the rug to prevent embarrassment to the force. Comparatively you got off lightly while the Chief himself and was removed from office while you were relegated to the hellish desk that is “Traffic Duty”, a crying waste of a man who's impeccable marksmanship would've made him a great armed police officer. You bare no ill will towards the bikers like your partner Smythe does but you're excessively cruel to them because of your sadomasochistic tendencies.

Your sexual deviancy knows no limits. BDSM is your particular focus as you love a bit of rough in your sex life. Let's be honest, who doesn't? The one thing that gets you going more than anything else though is handcuffs, and that's what your special power is. Once a night you may remove a player from the race (ie, roleblock) by handcuffing them at the bar first.

Welcome, Terry Marvin to Road Rash Mafia. You are The Player.

What a delightfully ambiguous statement that is eh? The Player. Who's that? Well, simple. It's you. You are. You're the new kid in a gang of hardened street racers, fighting hard in the hopes of finding infamy, fortune and the thrill ride of a lifetime. Respect is an important element in this gang and as a rookie you won't have very much of it. However with each race you take part in you'll hustle and tussle with the best of them and gradually win the support of other Rashers on your road to become Road Rash champion.

So as The Player, it is your job to simply do that, play. Every Race Phase you may select any player (with the exception of two designated town players who can not be converted and the Mafia side) and convert them to your gang. Attempting to convert the inconvertible will not lead to your death but you simply being informed that your conversion was a failure. If you are killed, your conversion power will not be passed on to another member of the group. You also have a number of one shot items at your disposal.

Wild Thing 4000 – The most monstrous production bike to ever rule the road, this motorcycle is so blindingly fast that it almost renders you invisible to the naked eye. This will make you so fast that you'll be practically invisible to the naked eye. You can't be watched, tracked, roleblocked or followed. You are essentially invisible for one night only. Use this in conjunction with your conversion power.

Nunchucks – The deadliest weapon in the game, Nunchucks can be used in a race to blistering effect and ultimately leave someone for dead. Use this if you want to put someone out of the game rather than convert them to your side.

Jesus Christ Pose – More of a reference to Road Rash PC rather than the two source games, “Jesus Christ Pose” allows you to appear for one night only as an innocent. You can not use this on the same night as you convert someone.

Role Summary: Cult Leader w/ 1-Shot Powers

Victory Condition: You win the game when over 50% of alive players are converted to your gang.

I will agree with the above that I don't think it was horribly modded. If anything, it was well modded to the sense that you were able to handle the inactives and the claiming well. Some games that doesn't happen.

I will say that had you sent Jules the PM and not said it in his QT, that would probably be the better option. I mean, if Jules is the last scum left it's less likely he'd be checking his QT, right? Makes more sense to send it to his inbox so he'd get it.

Mind you, it's not like it would have mattered. Kris unvoted to give Jules and Manic a chance to speak. Manic did and voted Jules. If Jules stuck to the silenced, then Kris would have voted Jules because he didn't speak (I'd assume) and would have been lynched. So, really, the day phase was just sped up?

Overall I think it was a good game. I didn't know anything about the flavor, didn't really understand the left and right until later in the game (though I a) didn't have a role that would have done much and b) I was recruited early on and lost whatever role I had). Like I said, it was modded well, inactives were handled as well as they could be. There were moments where the game really slowed down, and I don't know if that was because AC was jailkeeping active players or people just weren't into the game. Who knows really.

I do look forward to the next Callahan game though.

The mod-kill was entirely my fault. Callahan had been giving me updates through the QT throughout my time on the mafia team, so I should have thought to check it before jumping in with my final play.

In addition, I'd concur that this game wasn't badly modded from my pov, unless there were some errors we know nothing of. Definitely a much better balanced game than Hitman, so well done Callahan for creating an intriguing game from a flavour that several people were initially wary of.

[T-Marv]

I thought it was a great game.....

The 3rd party role was difficult as fuck to win though being that I could be killed at night. However, I believe that roles like "the player" are supposed to be the most dificult to win. I wish I would have lasted longer and got to use some of my one shots. Too Bad Invisible didn't protect from the kill eh? lol

I disagree that it was modded bad. I thought the modding was spot on actually. It's HARD to mod kill when you know it sets off the balance of the game, but it's something that must be done. KUDOS for sticking to that Callahan!

I will say that the game was played horribly. I don't mean that anybody particularly sucked at their roles. I thought Kris, AC, and Jules all did fantastic as well as Metro and others. But all the inactivity mod kills and claiming and suck really put a damper on it. None of that was Mikey's fault though and fell into the hands of the players.

I was weary of the flavor going into it, but I thought it was pulled off well.

Ah okay. I guess what I meant was that it doesn't hurt to send updates via PM as well, especially in cases like that where if you don't check it's a modkill. If it was working throughout the entire game, I can see why Callahan would have not done a PM, so I can't (and didn't) fault him for that.

[The Soul Of Philly]

Wow, I'm sorry that Blade got stuck with Bacon who played both in the QT and in the game like a jackass. I'm gonna assume you're not gonna make an MVP call and since the Harvey award is pretty much locked for bacon.

My MVP is Terry Marvin because not only did he get Blade but he also got Bacon because of Bacon's play. No Terry Marvin and scum probably won.

And btw, Metro, I was thinking the same thing you were thinking when I had those spilts after the bacon lynch.

[Michael Callahan]

I would give you and Farq the award for both getting yourself mod-killed (which Bacon didn't do, 1-0 to him) but given that he got banned while the game was still in progress (even if he was gone) means that he is going to get it instead.

I'm starting to think that he's called Bacon because of a loose connection with the fact that the boy is as thick as pig-shit.

MVP clearly goes to Farquhar who as usual, pulled the John Cena of Mafia thing that he does (despite not even being originally Mafia) and went about five days on his ones without raising much suspicion and only really died because I didn't PM him, I QT'd him.

[T-Marv]

Actually.... Getting blade was a little more than luck! There were two people I couldn't convert. I assumed one was the godfather. When I couldn't get blade on my convert.... I threw up a hail mary.

it worked, and got me killed. LOL!

There's not going to be one. This is my last. I'm playing Mafia but I'm not hosting again. This was way too much of a stress-fuck.

[The Soul Of Philly]

And yea, I talked to callahan about the character claim and that I totally read it wrong. I'm sorry that I ruined a bit of the game.

I also think that Jules made a mistake by killing AC because that left two people that had be cleared the whole game. I was thinking if I were Jules I would have killed Kris and left AC and Manic and try to convince AC that Manic was town.

One thing though, in the 3rd party QT T-Marv gives two options to recruit, but never one, like he did later on with his Blade choice, and then again when discussing who to pick. He never picked one person to recruit a night other than Blade yet still got two people. Just an observation

While the Mafia in this game relied exclusively on the QuickTopic, T-Marv did use PM once.

I PM'd them to Callahan on the other nights. Not in my QT

Actually.... Getting blade was a little more than luck! There were two people I couldn't convert. I assumed one was the godfather. When I couldn't get blade on my convert.... I threw up a hail mary.

it worked, and got me killed. LOL!

It's funny. The role only says there are two people you can't convert.

Lawson, because he's a mafia recruit.
Madame X because she's unrecruitable.

That means you couldn't recruit 3 in total if the Blade recruit failed.

And TJ, I think Bacon was had just based on his game play. Marv got Blade and got killed that night (I believe) and Bacon ended up getting lynched because everyone hated the way he played lol

[The Soul Of Philly]

Ah ok fair enough

[T-Marv]

for the record. I was not told which players I couldn't convert. Just that there was two. I guessed that Godfather was one of them.
