Newbie Mini Mafia V was a 12 person Power Rangers themed new player game hosted by kitaman27 and EchelonTee in March 2012. Town started off in a rough spot with a no-lynch one day one and a mislynch on day two and three. In addition, their only power role, Sbrubbles the medic, was shot night two. However, they were able to eventually turn things around on day three and four with back to back mafia lynches. As the mafia had no power roles of its own and a medic had already flipped, the remaining mafia blubbdavid was able to come to the assumption that there was no detective and claimed it for himself during final day at 2v1. Town was at an information disadvantage, as they assumed a detective was a likely possibility with a flipped miller. Unfortunately for them, their assumption resulted in a mafia victory.

None

Town got screwed because they never established a set of "confirmed" townies. No-one is ever 100% confirmed but you were all suspecting each other all game long which meant mafia could easily blend in. Inactivity in the mid-end game made you focus on those posting and that lead to far too many mis-lynches. I think everyone town aligned needs to focus on establishing their innocence first. Playing "games" with people just leads to confusion and an easy ride for mafia

The selection phase didn't yield a lot of content for scum hunting but with both roleblocker and framer being pushed heavily, it would give town a really good list check for later in the game. Day1 ended up in the mislynch of Navillus mainly because he didn't have any posts during day1. Night1 was relatively quiet with most activity centered around Kurumi falsely hinting that he was a vigilante or wanting the vigilante to shoot prplhz. At the end up night1, Toadesstern made a big case on prplhz but it never took off and instead made Radfield suspicious of Toadesstern and Toadesstern ended up flipping scum on day2. Day3 was relatively slow with overwhelming support for a risk.nuke lynch. risk.nuke ended up flipping town which put town in a MYLO situation on day4. At this point the remaining two scum resigned in face of overwhelming suspicion on both of them.

Roles and Actions
Tracker tracked Sbrubbles on night1, risk.nuke on day2, and Kurumi on day3 but none of them did anything.

Both players and host/cohost gave their thoughts on the game after endgame. Link. These are just my (prplhz') thoughts, influenced by what happened after endgame

It was generally agreed that town played well. There was lots of analysis and hardly any one liners or name caling which made for a good scum hunting environment. The scum team was hampered by lack of communication and one of the first time scum was also affected by the stresses of being scum. Radfield's case on Toadesstern (link) stands out as one of the best pieces of analysis in the game but there was a lot of great analysis.

In the selection phase town ended up not knowing which role they gave to scum because the vote was split between roleblocker and framer. This ended up being a very powerful list check later on as people started to flip. Scum ended up giving town a tracker and an innocent child. It was generally agreed that these were good roles to give to town. Another possibility would be to take out one of the roles and put in a 2-shot vigilante instead, forcing a faster end to the game but this could be devastating for scum in the hands of a good vigilante. 1-shot cop would essentially confirm himself and someone else by claiming on day2 and medic was also very powerful.

The day1 mislynch of Navillus was a classic day1 mislynch of a guy who wasn't putting in all too much effort. He only had two small posts during day1 when he came under scrutiny and that didn't change much before he was lynched. With two of the most prominent names in the game pushing him, it wasn't even scum influenced.

The night1 hit of wherebugsgo happened because he was getting suspicious of the scum while he was a framer voter. I think that shooting Radfield would have been a lot better and that scum should never shoot anybody because they're worried about list checks that aren't real list checks. They should just have shot the best town player who was putting in the most effort and that was very clearly Radfield. If they for some reason wasn't worried about Radfield then they should have shot into someone they thought was blue (they considered shooting slOosh who happened to be the innocent child but decided against it).

In the beginning of day2, Radfield made his big case on Toadesstern. This was a really uphill struggle for scum if they wanted to save Toadesstern and in the end they decided to hammer him. There isn't a whole lot that scum can do when one of their ranks is nailed by Radfield but there was some postgame discussion about how they might have saved him but lacked the communication. In the end he was lynched with only one scum vote (the hammer) on him so it was probably not possible for him to avoid getting lynched. The other lynch candidate for the day was risk.nuke who was lynched the next day and I think that if scum had tried full force to switch the lynch to risk.nuke, they'd be in the exact same situation on day4 as they ended up in. It just sucks for scum when they're figured out.

Night2 Radfield was predictably shot which more or less confirmed to town that town had a tracker and an innocent child.

Day3 was a slow day with overwhelming support for a risk.nuke lynch. risk.nuke had not been playing up to his potential and had pretty much given up on defending himself. This wasn't a great lynch and town should have discussed a lot more, especially once it was clear that no one was against the lynch.

Night3 scum hit Zephirdd in an attempt to hit a blue. Zephirdd had "blueslipped" on day1 and this was noted by town and mafia alike but he didn't flip blue putting scum in an even position at the next day MYLO. Zephirdd had already claimed that he wasn't blue and he hadn't blueslipped and being one of the more flip floppy players in the game and having had some scrutiny on him already that was only removed by how he had "blueslipped", scum should maybe have shot into slOosh this night as he was looked strong and also possibly blue.

Day4 slOosh outed himself as the innocent child and would be unanimously elected mayor (the poison for the day). He wanted to lynch Sbrubbles (since day1) and additionally a few other townies were correctly pointing out that they thought that Sbrubbles and talismania were the last scum. At this point scum forfeited.

The poisons weren't an issue for town in this game. During the selection phase a general order that they poisons should be picked in was drafted and this was followed to the end and at no point did the poisons actually influence the game and after the selection phase they were hardly discussed anymore and were generally passed unanimously.
