Genre Fiction Mafia

WRT poisoner: Everyone voted Days One and Two. Two people, Pleo and pede, did not vote yesterDay. One of those two people was poisoned.

May just be coincidence, I dunno. But it’s the first thing I noticed.

Yummier than Astral, Tom, Fluid or me? (Although, if Fluid is chasing after a PFK, the scum may not care right now.)

Heh, I was thinking about the utility of looking throgh his posts for wifom.

That’s exactly what I was thinking, AND a third-party might not have a cover.

WRT poisoner: presuming Red is not being unique (a pretty big presumption, I’ll admit), typically in mafia a poison kill refers to a delayed kill (Mafiascum: Poisoner). Something to think about before you presume it had to do with Pleo’s actions or lack thereof yesterday.

Also, at this point, I’m going to play Lynch the Lurker until I go back over the game again. vote pedescribe

What a strange game this is, I haven’t played with a poisoner in the game before. I read that the poison kills a day later so I want to see who Pleo was looking into on Day 2.

@ Weedy, I am also mostly confused. I don’t really see why Inner claimed so early, it seems to me that he has quite an important role (all my hard work down the drain now, sorry Inner) Won’t he be a scum target now?

I don’t know what to think at the moment since I was totally wrong so I am going back to read what** Pleo **had to say and hopefully gain some insight into who I think is scum.

Because the current rate of attrition means we don’t have more than one mislynch or two before we’re at LyLo and we don’t have the resources to waste one on me.

Meh, paranoid doctors are kinda sucky, yeah, I could potentially prevent a NK but it’s more likely that I’ll just prevent a crucial role from carrying out their business.

Just joining the ever growing list.

I still haven’t finished reading but what I have found interesting is that** Pedescribe voted for Pleo **on Day 1 and Day 2 and did not vote on D3. I know Pedescribe has been missing but what if he knew Pleo would die and didn’t want to vote for him again. This looks very fishy to me and I tend to agree that in this game we need to Lynch the Lurkers.

Vote Pedescribe

FYI all, I checked Silver Jan for bombs last night and none were detected.

More soon.

Oh my good lord. That is the most contrived rationale for blatant bandwagoning lynch-the-lurker I have ever seen.

I too will be interested know if Mahaloth can confirm Inner’s story. Generally, I don’t see any particular reason to believe Inner’s claim - the only person we know who could confirm having been blocked had already announced he was blocked. Plus I see early claims as a sign that the claimee doesn’t think he/she can argue the case against them.

Assuming for the moment that all our claimed power roles are accurate: fluid and Tom aren’t a threat to the Scum, and may even be a bit of an asset; Astral is a threat, but seems to have been neutralised; Inner is a threat as much for his ability to e.g. block the scum role-blocker as for his chance of stopping the kill. Therefore claiming wasn’t actually a life-preserving kind of move for a Town Inner.

vote Inner Stickler**

Lynch the lurker is a good place to start a Day, but a bad way to finish. So hopefully pede will show up. Even if not, it’s a pretty uncontroversial place for people to leave their votes, and so slightly suspicious IMHO.

Tom - who did you try to investigate Night Two? Who did you investigate last Night? If you’re on the level, don’t feel you have to share your results - Scum are at least as interested in knowing if they’ve killed a power role as we are.

Also, if Tom is on the level, then being outed is problematic. He can confirm role-claims after death; if he finds an obviously contradictory role among the dead he can out a scum - but if for example he were to find that Hirka were a Doc, would that be proof Inner is lying abotu being paranoid Doc? However, if we ever succeed in lynching scum then the obvious move for the scum will be to get rid of the coroner before he tells us what scum role we’ve bagged. If Inner is telling the truth, he can’t protect Tom without blocking him, thus negating the power anyhow. Our only hope would be a(nother) protective role to look after him.

On the Poisoner: All actions were focused on Mahaloth on Night Two - so Pleo can’t have been poisoned then.

About the prospect of a mass claim, which I didn’t get a chance to comment on directly last night –

I think the risk/benefit is dependent on the value (that is, the honesty) of the claims that are out there thus far. If all are accurate, then we might be in decent condition for a mass claim, particularly if we have masons. If some are false, particularly Inner Stickler’s, that’s different. To what extent do you trust him, Astral?

Stanislaus: I will say who I investigated, and the result I received, before Dawn, unless someone makes a claim that doesn’t jibe with what I know.

Seconded Astral’s “sure” response; his post plus your “Pleonast Pleonast Pleonast vote SomeoneElse” post yesterday put you on my radar.

NETA: Catching up sucks, I see you did respond. One moment.

It is interesting, particularly given how much suspicion Pleonast had gotten (as compared to pedescribe, who’s gotten none up to now). I’ve never seen a poisoner as a vig (and only once seen a vig who was limited to killing those who had not voted the previous day), but at this point I’d say it’s a possibility.

Weedy wasn’t even talking about the current situation when she said she was confused, why even reference her here? This is so tangential, but this isn’t the first time you’ve referenced your own confusion. I’ve seen that from scum too often.

About Inner, that sure was a quick turnaround given he hasn’t remotely proven that he is telling the truth. And if you do believe him without question (as the “I’m sorry” strongly implies), why bother even asking why he claimed? Another thing I see scum do quite often, asking irrelevant questions of people they say they trust or who are confirmed town.

I look forward to it.

Apropos of nothing but future night actions, if you are town (and not using it to protect Astral), consider using it aggressively as a roleblock, against suspects.

I can confirm his story.

…and another perfectly good case gets ruined by facts:

unvote Inner Stickler
