Mafia V: The Cult of Sekham

Ok, so I’m a liar.

I’m not going to run through this excercise for Queuing. A) I’m not physically or mentally capable of doing so. B) I don’t need to because there is no way in hell he’s going go come back any scummier than Kyrie has.

Vote Kyrie

I apologize for any heart-attacks or fist-pumping I may have caused (or may currently be causing) in my unwilling participation in this decision. :stuck_out_tongue:

And I’m really really really…really glad I decided to do Kyrie first.

Now someone come in here all official like so we can get on with our lives, pretty please. :smiley:

Maybe the official Someone is sleeping. That’d be my luck.

Unofficial hauntings?

Anyone?

Hello?

YOU CAN’T LEAVE ME IN HERE WITH THESE TWO!!!1111!!!

[oooOOOOoooo]You’re a better player in the end game than I would have been. No way I was going to do that in depth of an analysis of anyone going back that far…[oooOOOooo]

<Voice of Disciple>

I’m listening. That is an impressive amount of work given the sheer number of pages you will have to have trawled through.

</Voice of Disciple>

I really didn’t know what the hell I was going to do, but once I started going it seemed to sufficiently fall into place.

It was quite odd skimming back through the whole bit about losing my cat. That seems like ages ago, even though I still have dreams that he just shows back up in the house. :frowning:

Remind me to order everyone over in Firefly that there will be no deaths of friends or loved ones or lost pets allowed. We’ve reached our quota of bad news in these games.

Now all we need is Blaster Master to show up and finally bring this game to a close.

If anyone sees him, kick him this way.

I must say, I am very impressed with the amount of effort you put in to attempt to make a decision. Well done! Now, where is the Master of Blaster to put an end to this hell?

Cookies, you put forth much more effort that I would have at this stage. Kudos to you!
Oh, <haunt>OOOohhhhhoOOOOOhhhhhooooooooOOOOOO</haunt>

That Non-Believer list sure is short. I’ve got a sinking feeling that I just completely wasted a few days of my life, despite a possible hint from Queuing that I’d already lost:

If Queuing is indeed a Non-Believer and I were to unvote and abstain, maybe I could force a three-way tie? But then Kyrie could just kill me ToNight and win…

I could unvote and flip a coin or three just prior to the deadline tomorrow, fulfill my fate as but a pawn in the game of life, and wash my hands of it all, not giving a flying frak as to the outcome. Hmmm. Very tempting…

Sure you could flip a coin. However you know seem very confident in your analysis that Kyrie is the prophet. You are correct by the way. (S)He is the prophet. I am a believer I assure you. Keep your vote the way it is and we will win together.

I think it’s telling that Queuing has managed to direct the conversation away from the obvious, and toward a tangent that suits him. I think he’s better at this than I, and if the cult wins, it will be well-deserved, and well-played.

It seems obvious to me that we wouldn’t be here now if USCDiver hadn’t been killed last night, and Queuing has yet to offer any explanation for that, other than suggesting that it was done to frame him. That just doesn’t make sense to me; it would be unnecessary to “frame” him if last night’s kill had been any different. There would be no need for all of this convolution; sometimes, it really is the wine in front of you.

I can offer a litany of other evidence, but I’m not sure that would be helpful at this point.

You decided that I’m scum, and then went back and read my posts with that in mind. With a prejudiced reading, it’s little surprise that you were able to find what you wanted to find.

I had been inclined to keep quiet while you reviewed the thread, but now I’ve taken the liberty of reviewing Queuing’s posts. The size of that font would seem to imply that it was pointless to do so, but if you won’t review them, I hope that you’ll at least consider some of what I consider to be the highlights:

Day One

Queuing promoted the idea that the Apprentice should shout out the name of the Oracle, even knowing that this scheme would lead to the nearly immediate death of the Apprentice if the Oracle were killed (cite).

Then he recanted his support, and voted for DiggitCamara in part for proposing it (cite).

Day Four

Tells us that we can expect him to vote for town. (cite)

Day Five

Has a “sneaking suspicion that Zeriel and NAF are both believers” (cite).

Votes for Zeriel, 15 posts later. (cite).

Day Six
Tells us why the cult killed HazelNutCoffee (thought she was the apprentice) (cite).

Day Eight

Proposes that only suspicious people (Hockey Monkey, initially,) should vote, to reduce risk from avatar (cite).

Tries to get Pleonast to reveal his role, and CatinaSuit to reveal whether the “protect all” power has been used. (cite, reiterated, and again).

Supports Idle and Zuma in monkgate, despite Zuma’s aborted “drunken” accusation of MHaye (cite).

Continues to support Idle/Zuma in the face of opposition from 3 claimed power roles (cite).

Suggests that MHaye, Cookies, and Sachertorte should vote for Idle, in case he’s the avatar “to improve the chance that we get a scum.” He’s either suggesting that about-to-be-confirmed town vote for scum, or that scum vote for town, depending on which way the monk claims go. How does this do anything but put townies at risk to be killed? (cite).

Day Thirteen

Tells us he’s not surprised that the cult picked MHaye (cite). Not surprising, as it was his choice. He even goes on to defend the choice as being the correct one.

It’s not the size of the font, it is the motion of the head smashing against the desk. :smiley:

Um…no. I decided that the only way for me to make as informed of a decision that I could was to role-play both of you as scum, and see which one of you was most compelling in that role. I picked you first because in an effort (measly as it may have been) to alternate who was the most under my microscope, and Queuing had been there previously.

I assumed you were scum and used that filter while re-hashing most of what you had said and done in the game. At the end of that journey, I came to the conclusion that it was unlikely that my making the same assumption and grueling re-read with Queuing in the hot seat would result in a more compelling scum than you. Unlikely enough to vote. So I voted.

That’s a heck of a good job of analysis, Cookies. I hope you’re right.

<Octopus returns beneath the waves>

Hmm… looks like about 30 minutes left.

Thank Og.

Okie dokie. Sun is set.

Congratulations to… everyone. You’re all winners in my book for playing such a great game. :stuck_out_tongue:
