The Big Lebowski Mafia - Mafia and Lyncher win!

[DoomYoshi]

EDIT: I looked it up, he's the kid. I got it.

[Streaker]

I am happy to get some semblance of a lynch. If that makes me seem 'happy' fair enough. I am not sure I believe that claim. Who is Larry Sellers again? Is he the landlord?

No, not the landlord. I am known to steal cars though.

One of my favorite references :

The Dude: Your money is being held by a kid named Larry Sellers. Real fucking brat, but I'm sure your goons can get it off him. I mean, he's fifteen.

...

The Dude: Flunking social studies.

The stealing in the movie references my power in the game.

[DoomYoshi]

So you are allowed to steal people's powers? Flavour Text in a small world like Lebowski can be very powerful. I will unvote for now.

[Commander9]

Vote streaker - even thought I'm yet to re-read why he's being voted out, I'm not buying that claim one bit.

[strike wolf]

A fairly small role in the movie but the flavor works for the role if he is indeed a thief. The problem if I remember right is that thieves can be troublesome because of their abilities if I remember right. based on it being a small role, the evidence compiled which I still don't believe his excuse for and the nature of the role I am not going to unvote.

[Anarkistsdream]

Sorry, dude... I may even believe you are a thief... But being a thief for the TOWN...? No sir, I don't buy that. At best, you are third party. And if you aren't going to bother to read the posts made in this game to make a believable story, then my assumption is you don't care to play.

Unvote
Vote: Streaker

[DoomYoshi]

The thing is when he originally claimed he said he was an investigator, then he claimed he was a thief (sort of?). It does seem suspicious. So I will vote Streaker and I believe it is the hammer.

[strike wolf]

That is the hammer.

[edocsil]

That wasn't smart yoshi, vigs take notice. Should have allowed more discussion, we still had 24 hrs give or take. I know nothing of this games flavor, how likely was it that his character was included in the game?

[strike wolf]

It's not impossible that he's telling the truth. Larry is a borderline role as far as importance. Pretty small (only appears in one scene but is also mentioned a few times) but not completely unheard of. The flavor about "stealing" fit as he was the one who stole The Dude's car and took the briefcase before abandoning it. It's a role that if included wouldn't be mafia but not necessarily town.

[DoomYoshi]

He didn't actually provide a defense at all. In his claim he still said he was justified in sticking with his vote on fircoal, who IS NOT IN THE GAME. Then he claims that he had an investigative role. And somehow left out that he was a thief until the NEXT post. So a slip-up on his part. Why would he lie to the town when he is under all that scrutiny?

Yes, you are still a good nk. There was a lot of flavor speculation that should have been done and you prevented that. Could have been a a lot of info yet to be gained.

One thing to keep in mind when analyzing player's claims for how they relate to the theme is the that the scum have been given fake-claims.

14. Mafia have fake claims. Don't believe everything you see. Whilst the various claims/roles may seem radically different to the characters in the film, this is a game where knowledgeof the film will be largely beneficial so I urge you all to watch it if you get a chance!

[FloresDelMal]

actually i think his claim fits, now i am less certain about the alignment, i do find a town thief to be slightly far fetched, still you screwed up badly doom yoshi, we could have gotten more info, ask for details, etc... you shouldn't hammer someone like that, overall when we still have time.

[safariguy5]

Yeah, but with such a small group of characters, fakeclaims tend to be minor characters like in Platoon. It's definitely possible a major character isn't used for town, but I find it less likely.

[ga7]

YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS LARRY?
Honestly I don't believe the claim so I think it's for the best.

Nor do I, we were going to hang him I believe, but we should have talked first.....

[strike wolf]

It was a little rushed but I think we got the right lynch. Not much to add onto that.

Honestly we shouldn't count on that or try to wifom the mod's fake claims.

[DoomYoshi]

For the record, I am not basing my decision on the role itself. I am basing it on the fact that he lied about his role during his roleclaim.

What did he lie about?

[DoomYoshi]

In the roleclaim he said he was an investigative role - nothing about stealing. In the following post, he said he was a thief.

[spiesr]

The thief role could be considered to be an investigative role as how it works is you steal an item from a person which relates to their role. Its primary use is to uncover people's roles as the act of stealing doesn't even always have any affects on the target. (Sometimes it roleblocks them but not usually. Depends on the m0d.)

True, but thief doesn't reveal alignment. Both a vig or a mafia goon could have guns.
