They must have aimed a kill at either me or rpgdemon (both nasty power roles that are unhealthy for mafia), and it didn't go through. If there's only one remaining Mafiate, Gregness may have potentially roleblocked it. Otherwise, I don't know. Maybe there is a functioning Doctor who didn't roleclaim after all.

Speaking of Gregness: unlike Sif, I don't really trust you. You roleblocked Nikose one night, or so you claim, but even before that roleblock most people were convinced Nikose was all kinds of dodgy so that's an effective way for a potential Mafiate to start a votetrain on someone as good as outed, to pass suspicion off of himself.
Now, you've had a few posts in Day 5 so far, but you haven't said in any of them who you roleblocked last night. Why haven't you said this yet? Holding back information like that when you roleclaimed long ago is decidely peculiar.

FoS: Gregness

I roleblocked greed since he was the other mafia candidate and we were giving rpgdemon one night to turn town. Greed got killed by rpg last night and no one asked me about my roleblock so I didn't think it was terribly relevant, sorry.

Though, can we guess that since the mafia hit didn't go through that greed was the last? They usually have to pick a guy to actually execute the hit and if there was more than just greed left it'd be pretty dumb to have him do it since he was already outed.

Didn't know they actually pick a specific person who does the kill, rather than as a collective whole. I really doubt they're all dead, though.

I'll wait on some input from IHMN for now.

Regarding greed's post, I think he's lying about the mafia still having a chance as a final "fuck you" against us. If there was actually some mafia left I doubt that he would want to give away that they still exist.

Take the friendship route, guys.

I think the lack of a mafia last night was telling. It was the last night they could freely kill someone with the knowledge we had at that time (since RO had already confirmed greed as mafia, and after the Oron lynch that was all he had on scum up to that point). Meanwhile, rpgdemon did what he said he would do. Act as a vigilante and take out threats to the town, before switching to town. While I would've preferred to have him flip last night, I don't feel he went against our interests with the petrification.

In short, I'm with Aldurin at this point, and I'd be fine with a no lynch day. This will allow rpgdemon to convert, which would end the game if there's no more mafia. If there's still mafia, though, they will have to act, either through pushing for lynches that are silly (which would expose them) or through night kills, but until there's proof of existence of the mafia, we can just take it easy and not instantly turn on each other and keep a nice numerical advantage for town.

I'm officially okay with taking the friendship route. Let's no-lynch today, let rpg flip town, and rain hell on him if he does otherwise.

Aldurin · 10-22-2011, 07:16 PM

I think we actually need to have a "No Lynch" majority vote in order to keep the few against it from taking control.

rpgdemon · 10-23-2011, 02:03 AM

The way I see it, there are three options that make sense for the town to take:

1) Lynch me, see if its game over. If it is, hey, you won!

2) Don't lynch me, and vote no lynch. I'll switch over to town tonight, and then game should be over tomorrow. If I don't switch tonight, take option number one.

3) Don't lynch me, and vote to lynch someone who's suspicious, just in case there are extra mafiates around, and we could hit one for free. I feel like it'd be 1-2 scum left, and the rest townies, if there are any scum, so if we hit a townie now, we'd still have an overwhelming majority, but if we hit scum, we keep from killing me tomorrow, if we don't win, since that wouldn't really accomplish anything. (If you believe me. If you don't, then it establishes that there is in fact still a mafiate at large).

I would almost like to suggest option 3, and hit Sif, just because I want to be super sure that I'll actually get the right pony to go to, to flip town, since if I don't, I completely shot myself in the foot and orchestrated my loss.

If anyone else got anything at all about a pet, or a cockatrice, or whatever, in their flavor, now would be the time to say so. I don't want to lose, by going for the alternate win condition that lets more people win.

Ravashak · 10-23-2011, 02:56 AM

Sif's been investigated by RO and revealed town, so I disagree with voting for him.
