MichelSableheart

• Forum profile

General

MichelSableheart is a dutch math student and gamer. He stumbled upon the Mafiascum forums while doing a bit of background research for an article on the game of Mafia. After spending a couple of days reading the wiki and some recently finished games, he joined the site on may 31, 2007. The first game he played in was Newbie 389, which was one of the longest newbie games ever. Because he didn't want to join other games before he had finished at least one newbie game, it wasn't until the 11th of november before he joined his second game, and it took even longer for him to get into any non-newbie games.

The name Michel is the french form of Michael. Unlike Michael, Michel does NOT have an 'a' in it.

Newbie 389

Newbie 389 started on june 2nd, 2007, lasted 5 mafia days (!), and ended on november 10th 2007. It is one of the longest newbie games ever played, timewise at least.

MichelSableheart was mafia, together with GreenLiquid (who was later replaced by Qman). During day 1 and day 2, he played a solid pro-town game. At the end of day 2, he counterclaimed the doc, in the hope of a quick win. Unfortunately, the doc had succesfully protected someone during night 1, and after Michel's counterclaim, a series of No lynches & No Kills followed. On day 4, Michel's mafia partner was lynched, but after a succesful Night Kill, the town lynched it's doctor for a mafia win on day 5.

Newbie 494

In newbie game 494, MichelSableheart replaced Dracion on page 6. He replaced a player who was considered rather scummy, but managed to change people's opinion enough to be nightkilled during night 1. It turned out he was a normal townie.

The mafia won the game. During day 1, one of them fakeclaimed cop, and did not get counterclaimed. On day 2, the fake cop claimed a guilty investigation on his partner. Even though the town managed to lynch the fake cop, the townie who had believed him became a quick mislynch on day 3.

Newbie 527

In newbie game 527, a game with the pie E7 setup, MichelSableheart replaced Autolyctus, who hadn't picked up his rolepm, on page 2. The game ended in a perfect town win, with MichelSableheart turning out to be a vanilla townie.

Even though MichelSableheart was the player who hammered the last scum, the town win in this game was not really thanks to him. He spend the first half of day 1 (which lasted a grand total of 18 pages) defending the mafia goon and attacking the doctor. When both the doctor and cop had claimed, and there were only four players left who could possibly be scum from his point of view, he was heavily suspicious of a scumpairing by the two pro-town players of the four.

The rest of the town played a lot better though, lynching the scum roleblocker day 1, investigating MichelSableheart to discover that he was pro-town, and quickly settling on the goon lynch day 2.

Newbie 554

Newbie 554 was a California game. MichelSableheart replaced Danix, who had lurked throughout the game, during night 2. He became a mafia member, and managed to win the game.

At the moment MichelSableheart replaced in, there were 4 players still alive: the cop, 2 townies, and MSh. He managed to nightkill the cop, even though he expected someone else to have that role. His original plan was to claim cop with a guilty result on the player he believed to be the cop. He only killed the true cop as insurance in case he was mistaken. With two townies left alive, it took a bit of work for him to cause the last mislynch, but ultimately he succeeded by pressuring the weakness of the following argument made by one of the two townies. "I've basically trusted anderson the entire game, and he knows that, so I'm sure he feels the same way about me." He did not.

Newbie 578

Newbie 578 was a F11 game. MichelSableheart replaced Cream147 during day 2. Cream checked in a couple of hours late to prevent that. Michel became a vanilla townie, got nightkilled during night 3, but managed to win the game nonetheless.

During day 1, the town lynched it's doc, despite the fact that he had claimed. Day 2, the IC who had hammered him was strung up, and revealed to be vanilla town. This left the town in Lylo. Two cop claims followed, but resulted in extremely little information becoming available to the town. Between the two of them, they only had 1 result (two roleblocks and an investigation on a dead player were claimed). Despite that, two succesfull lynches followed, with a nightkill on MichelSableheart inbetween, resulting in a town win.

MichelSableheart did play his part in the victory, with a couple of correct analyses, but his role was neglectible. He was never on the lynching wagon of scum, and was more careful in his analysis then the other players, not considering the claimed cop confirmed. Scum would have had a good chance for victory if they had kept him alive till endgame.

Normal Games

Mini Normal 533

MichelSableheart played in mini 533 from the beginning. He received the role of doc, but later turned out to be a paranoid doctor, a role perhaps better known as jailkeeper. He got nightkilled during night 2, but eventually won the game along with the rest of the town.

Day 1 saw a townie pulling a Slayer's gambit, which failed utterly. He behaved scummy in the hope of luring scum onto his wagon, and said he would explain himself only when he was at L-1. Because of this behaviour, the miller believed said townie was a jester who could only win if he hammered himself and announced that he would hammer as soon as L-1 was reached. Another townie decided to test whether the miller was telling the truth. He was. The following night, the cop was doublekilled by both the mafia and the Serial Killer. MichelSableheart wasn't even close to protecting the right person.

Day 2 saw the best play of MichelSableheart that game. Based on a side remark about poison being the Modus Operandi, he correctly identified the Serial Killer. Based on behaviour, he correctly identified a mafia member. Based on behaviour, the claim and the response gotten from other players, Michel also got convinced that the claimed miller was indeed pro-town. He failed utterly in convincing the rest of the town though, and day 2 ended with a lynch of the pro-town miller.

Night 2 was a very interesting one indeed. At the beginning of night 2, Michel was told that he became paranoid because the cop had died through the hands of scum (if you've payed attention, you'll know that this was in fact not true. MSh had been paranoid the entire game). The mafia decided to nightkill the Serial Killer, mainly because the player playing the Serial Killer had an extremely good meta on a mafia member. Simultaneously, the Serial Killer decided to kill Michel, for correctly identifying him. This meant that, if Michel had protected/blocked the SK, no kills would have happened that night. And because he now knew he was paranoid, he did in fact consider targetting the SK. He ultimately decided against it because he had hinted heavily in his last post before night fell (when he didn't know he was paranoid yet) that he would be protecting someone else. That other person turned out to be the mafia member who didn't make the kill, and both Michel and the SK died that night.

After that, the game was a regular 7 player all vanilla game, which the town won by lynching mafia during day 3 and 5.

Theme Games

California Trilogy - Going to San Francisco

MichelSableheart was a vanilla townie, Carlos Santana, who would become a ghost doctor (a doctor who protects ghosts) when he died. He was nightkilled by scum during night 5, but eventually won the game.

This large theme game modded by mith is the first large theme game MichelSableheart has ever completed. Besides the main thread, the game featured two more threads. One in which three pro-town players were placed at the beginning of the game (found here) and one in which the dead players (including three players who died even before the game began) could discuss things and decide on a nightkill (found here). You read that correct. As soon as a player died, he gained access to that thread, and all dead players together (including confirmed scum that died) decided who the ghosts would nightkill.

During day 3, he decided to claim when he was under heavy pressure, and he did this so convincingly that he became effectively unlynchable, dying only on night 5, when the mafia used the only nightkill they used in the entire game (they had limited nightkills) to take him out.

In the scumhunting department, MichelSableheart was less succesful. He lead the attack against one scum, and joined the attack against another, but he also hammered a townie and argued against the haunting of a claimed scum near the end of the game (because he believed there was more then one scum still around).
