Mystery Mafia -- Game Thread

I sense the Episkey lynch will go off without a hitch toDay.
Wolf or Village the distraction is preventing us from finding the other Wolves.(And he is smelling like a wolf more each day) Ad to it his role seems to not do us much good til he is dead.but I repeat myself
IF cases are not made for the next best thing it will be a very loong Day.

I have made a few cases that I thought were good ones that apparently don’t hold water with any of you

(I am a tad annoyed that PCM couldn’t even be bothered to respond to the case made against 'im= it still bugs me)

Vote Episkey

No one seems the slightest bit interested in the whisper I got last night :frowning: If it’s anything like the other one it will be false and** Lilflower** really is scum.

We’ve had true whispers, false whispers and wtf whispers. you are not being ignored. I’m guessing it will be a slow day, plenty of time for research

Ed, I have two targets tomorrow. Not sure how you got redirected to me, but you did.

No, I targeted you as well.

N5 I target myself.

N6 I targeted you and NAF

Isn’t it highly probable that JD is the poisoner?

I agree that Episkey is a good lynch toDay because it’s highly likely that he is scum based on Scuba’s actions.

**vote Episkey
**

I think we sort of figured that someone can use dead players powers. I dunno if it is Random or?

JD do you think you know your role?

Looking back at all the messages that we’ve had, the only false town message we’ve had so far is from Blaster and we’ve got one unconfirmed on Jan (although I’m thinking that one is likely true since Scuba got that message on the Night that Drain Bead targeted him).

So there’s that and the fact that the message about me is true.

Sorry, could really work out what the salient points of the case were, other than I made a piss poor vote night one, and everything I say looks scummy to you (well prior you).

About the only thing we can say about your prior you case is that it was not scum trying to push a town lynch.

But we’ve had two Nights of poisoned players after Pizza’s death so either there is another poisoner out there or there are two roles that can steal others’ powers (because if we had only one power-stealer, they could not have targeted Pizza two Nights in a row).

Maybe stealing a dead player’s power.

The poisonings weren’t on back to back Nights, were they?

But how would it work? You target a dead person, then a living person on the other Night?

Wouldn’t the player have had to known that they’d need to target dead players?

You may have missed the conversation (easy here to do so) But atleast 2 of us have played where a player could use a dead players “power” We have not had a poisoning EVERY night (and we all know we are manditory) so it is possible that someone gets to choose or is randomized a dead players power- remember the “found” gun?

True, I forgot that Drain Bead was poisoned Night 4 and not just last Night (Night 5). And I don’t think the player would have to know they had to target dead players - maybe they can target anyone, dead or alive, and the player is just choosing dead targets since those are the roles we know.

I failed to submit a target in time, and was randed to target you.

To respond to the second part, the warm glow is pretty obviously what I do, but I have no clue what that warm glow does.

I’m interested, especially since I received the opposite whisper last night! :dubious: Here’s my synopsis of alignment whisper reports. Perhaps we should assume your whisper came from Scuba Ben on his death bed?

There seemed to have been four roles that generated alignment messages:
BM (Blaster Master) – Wolf Propagandist
DC (Dancecat) – Town Crier
SB (Scuba_Ben) – Town Gossip
XX – Scummer??

Here are the pure alignment messages, prefixed with apparent source:
Night 1
SB: Scuba Ben gets message that Jan is villager (reflected onto himself by Drain Bead)
DC: Idle gets message that Dancecat is villager
BM: Giraffe gets message that BlasterMaster is villager
XX: Silver Jan gets message that gnarlycharlie is wolf

Night 2

SB: AskthePizzaGuy gets message that Episkey is a wolf
SB: Giraffe gets a message that pwnsall is town
DC: Donkx4 gets a message that Dancecat is a villager
XX: AskthePizzaGuy gets message that NAF is a wolf

Night 3
SB: Scuba Ben gets a message that Weedy is a villager
XX: Episkey gets a message that pwnsall is scum

Night 4
SB: Drain Bead gets a message that Ed is town
XX: Episkey gets a message the Episkey is scum

Night 5
SB: blocked
XX: (none reported)

Night 6
SB: Silver Jan gets a message lilflower is town
XX: septimus gets a message lilflower is scum

Immediately after posting this I realized there is an alternate interpretation. Instead of always reporting “so-and-so is Scum”, XX may be the sort of whisperer who always whispers lies. In this case, lilflower could be Scum, with me getting the message from Scuba Ben and Silver Jan getting her whisper from the Liar. (For this to work out, we might suppose that Episkey is the lie generator, got the lying message about himself, and, thinking we’d know these whispers were always backwards, flipped the message to show self as Scum. :confused: :smack: :confused: )

Since all we really know right now is that the only appreciable effect is that someone feels a “warm glow”, perhaps that should be reflected here? You’ve never explained exactly why you’re pushing so hard for me to be a Courtesan. Normal Phase wondered the same thing.

Could it be that the warm glow blocks the effects of any other actions targeting her target?

Not when confirmed Town is telling me otherwise.
