    As mentioned Majesty needs a slight cool down.

    Majesty should have been way more expensive, to adjust for the passive blood gain.

    No, the cooldown's the way to go. Dominate was gross and kind of useless for the blood because it had both high costs on 3 and the power. It's why I didn't take it.

    @kilnaga Why me? Your timing was really not great for "the network," such as it was. I was doing work busdriving kills off of Obi onto other people I was pretty sure of / protecting jdark so he could be prince, man.

    And, I sure didn't save Obi night 1, so that's on someone else.

    I forgot about you busdriving all those kills off me. Man I should have died so many times this game.

    You would also have died had I gotten a necro-post, but the kill on me was a real surprise.

    Why would you have called me out?

    Honestly, raising Kworau from the dead as the last post really fucked over the village. People should have voted out Moridin like I said, his decision to go out raising his fellow clan member screwed us quite hard.

    Survival neutrals are not village aligned! The Giovanni were never going to help the Camarilla unless it also helped them! The moment they could, they screwed us and left.

    By the time it was clear to me that we had real specials, including a vig and a more-or-less SK, it was obvious to me that our "hit squad," wasn't, which meant most of you were probably blowing smoke up my ass.

    I didn't care that you might not be Camarilla when I thought I was only redirecting damage somewhere more agreeable, but knowing there was a vig would've changed things. I wish Shalmelo had told me a bit more.

    You in particular I'd have called out for over-selling nonchalance even given your family circumstances. Jdark was acting like village jdark, you were acting like bad-guy Obi.

    Why did the Assamites decide to take me out day 2? Random shot or was it because everyone i was talking to besides Aura was actually mafia?

    Also, i think this officially makes game number 2 where neither @Auralynx nor I got screwed by the other!

    Random shot. First couple days, it was just a matter of the Malks/Assamites picking a target since the Assamites had tons of damage, and we pretty much just pointed the cannon towards the clans that weren't a part of our secondary win condition. Didn't have enough info during that time to point towards any potential Sabbat or Anarch, so it was all based on hunches.

    Also, did anyone see this from the role definition doc?
    Oh, and should you happen to meet your primary goal, all that blood you handed out turns out to be poison and each blood point given to a vampire deals that many points of damage to said vampire.

    It would have been the best kind of Chaos if blahmcblah had actually accomplished his win condition.

    I don't know if that should make me feel better or worse than if there was some intent behind it. Really sad to have gone out early on this one :( Which is really just another way of saying well done @Assuran

    I still can't believe that haha. It basically confirmed you in my mind! Like, you privately called a village-aligned action and then it happened! It completely messed with my thinking that last day.

    He told me he'd gone Animalism 1 / Fort 2, and I never got to compare notes w/ jdarksun, who I think he told something else later, because I was dead. Day 5 was basically the netpocalypse; I think I was pretty much confirmed as far as Shalmelo and Spectre were concerned, though I'd bet Spectre was annoyed with me.

    He claimed Inceptor. Essentially a thin-blood that could make their own disciplines in lore. However, his explanation was that he was converting people's win cons to his Caitiff win con, IIRC.

    Hence that Day 11 title on our boards.

    Garick was telling me I was mafia, Megafrost was being super quiet and getting called for it, and that post that 38thDoe or Egos picked out early game on Obifett 'hating calls because they ruin the record,but I'll vote for the call anyway' caused you to be suspected forever.

    It's sort of what led me to being so brazen about flushing out the cult, as if/when I died that meant two greys were vote leaders against Obifett the night when Jdark saved him.

    But also it was the only I could see of getting that thing done.

    For the record it seemed pretty clear to me late in the day that INAGTP wasn't a cult member, but I couldn't see how to move off him without looking any more suspect. So it was better to stay on him and not reveal any more not mafias.
    Also, I thought that if I died, then no-one else would be role blocking Virgil and another conversion would go off. Pretty glad that I was incorrect there, although we hadn't sussed out Ahava (we just killed her because possible seer).

    Actually, of all the roles, I think I'm most proud of the Setite.

    I learned from the previous incarnation which was essentially forced village seer.

    It felt so good playing out and I was really sad when @blahmcblah died.

    I tend to root for the Independents in these games because they have it so hard.

    I legit 1000% would have done that as a villager as well. I honestly had no time to do any real analysis but would have wanted someone somewhere to start talking about other suspects at that point because the whole day had been ruined.

    Yeah, MrT had action seered me as targeting myself with a non-public power set and called me on it. So I claimed a thin-blood Inceptor (which according to the wiki are vamps who discover new powers and are usually Caitiff). I claimed that my power allowed the normally clanless Caitiff to finally get into a real clan.

    I'm pretty sure had I lived another couple days we'd have gotten you, Kay, and Ahava earlier / at all.

    Any confidence in my mafia gameplay that I gained from this win has been quickly obliterated by the realization of how of many people knew I was mafia the entire game and how much luck went into the win (you busdriving me, jdark saving me, kime thinking I saved him from Torpor, Sabat being eliminated the same day I voted out one of my own, etc).

    Hence that Day 11 title on our boards.

    Garick was telling me I was mafia, Megafrost was being super quiet and getting called for it, and that post that 38thDoe or Egos picked out early game on Obifett 'hating calls because they ruin the record,but I'll vote for the call anyway' caused you to be suspected forever.

    It's sort of what led me to being so brazen about flushing out the cult, as if/when I died that meant two greys were vote leaders against Obifett the night when Jdark saved him.

    But also it was the only I could see of getting that thing done.

    For the record it seemed pretty clear to me late in the day that INAGTP wasn't a cult member, but I couldn't see how to move off him without looking any more suspect. So it was better to stay on him and not reveal any more not mafias.
    Also, I thought that if I died, then no-one else would be role blocking Virgil and another conversion would go off. Pretty glad that I was incorrect there, although we hadn't sussed out Ahava (we just killed her because possible seer).

    I legit 1000% would have done that as a villager as well. I honestly had no time to do any real analysis but would have wanted someone somewhere to start talking about other suspects at that point because the whole day had been ruined.

    And, as a villager, why would you then have offered no other targets?

    If you then had gone onto at least speculate weakly, then you couldn't have been accused of doing nothing, and instead only having no information to base anything off.

    @kilnaga Why me? Your timing was really not great for "the network," such as it was. I was doing work busdriving kills off of Obi ontoplease other people I was pretty sure of / protecting jdark so he could be prince, man.

    And, I sure didn't save Obi night 1, so that's on someone else.

    I forgot about you busdriving all those kills off me. Man I should have died so many times this game.

    You would also have died had I gotten a necro-post, but the kill on me was a real surprise.

    Why would you have called me out?

    By the time it was clear to me that we had real specials, including a vig and a more-or-less SK, it was obvious to me that our "hit squad," wasn't, which meant most of you were probably blowing smoke up my ass.

    I didn't care that you might not be Camarilla when I thought I was only redirecting damage somewhere more agreeable, but knowing there was a vig would've changed things. I wish Shalmelo had told me a bit more.

    You in particular I'd have called out for over-selling nonchalance even given your family circumstances. Jdark was acting like village jdark, you were acting like bad-guy Obi.

    @Delmain The sabbat convert anarchs and disaffected cam neonates all the time. Much like normal, you get shovelbanged and dropped in a hole (unless you are worthwhile, in which case it's a classier transition). Having the Sabbat convert is totally within genre.

    Its relatively fine now. Thanks.

    But that tells me I should probably make stuff like that fairly public in the future so its easier for people to read my reasonings in thread.

    I have never seen or read anything like that, and I just looked again to see if it was a more recent thing.

    Are you sure? The only times I've seen Sabbat convert a Cam vamp, it's just the vinculum (and then a lot of distrust).

    So in my short term of prince, my fav part of the game was everyone talking to me in PMs like they were a real vampire, all the twilight references, and all the what we do in the shadows references.

    Let's have more vampire games please!

    Good news.

    Vampire: The Masquerade, The Phalla for Columbus part 3 will take place sometime in the next year.

    I Just need to relax a bit and plan out a new line of attack. I feel like the powers worked pretty smoothly and I have the bones for this game to run well in the future.

    Oh, and there may or may not be appearances from people like, "The Immortal Prince", "The Dashing Liar (ObiFett)", and "The Silent Killer (Megafrost)".

    It's not the term used in any text, but it's what my friends and I have called the sabbat initiation since time immemorial.

    I'll get out my Guide to the Sabbat when I get home and find it for you.

    What was the role that obi claimed?

    He claimed Inceptor. Essentially a thin-blood that could make their own disciplines in lore. However, his explanation was that he was converting people's win cons to his Caitiff win con, IIRC.

    Yeah, MrT had action seered me as targeting myself with a non-public power set and called me on it. So I claimed a thin-blood Inceptor (which according to the wiki are vamps who discover new powers and are usually Caitiff). I claimed that my power allowed the normally clanless Caitiff to finally get into a real clan.

    I think jdark was on to you because he asked me for my specific role name so he could check something, but I never found out what as we were all dead.

    I dunno, you seemed to be doing Good Things, just getting roleblocked constantly. Once word got out that you had a 'True Guard', that was it.

    I thought I was doing pretty well, though, apparently not. That Sabbat conversion was meeeeean. I did get a very nice writeup in the narration though, so thanks for that, @Assuran!

    I had a lot of fun, regardless. And my partner spent a lot of time giggling and says 'How evil are you being in THIS game? Are you evil? Are you a baddie? YOU'RE MAFIA, AREN'T YOU?!?' and such.

    But the Anarchs... we weren't the bad guys! We were just trying to save you from yourselves. By driving over the older Kindred and hitting them with baseball bats.

    Survival neutrals are not village aligned! The Giovanni were never going to help the Camarilla unless it also helped them! The moment they could, they screwed us and left.

    You should have laid down and died instead of voting him out. I would have saved you all then.
