Village Mafia - Page 9

I think they used the pitchfork thing because Lunaknight is a farmer not that they are a farmer.

I think this anonymous letter thing is pretty funny! I can't tell if they are being funny or being mean..

The ability to chat with anyone is a damn strong power, especially if he is corruptable/corrupted/just plain evil. Can't risk it being abused.

I mean, with everyone knowing what he is, imagine if he's culted.

Pink Bunny · 10-07-2007, 08:34 PM

I don't know about him being a major threat as Cult. He might tamper letters but it isn't as if he knows the Mafia's infrastructure or anything.

Unless they're dumb enough to use him as a network to deliver messages. Which could be what's happening right now. If people start dying at the dead of night from pen knives then I might grow a little concerned.

From his existence we've already narrowed down that at least three people are using him with weird clues. No telling what info he could give us on a rainy day when we have no leads.

Also no telling whether or not he's sending them himself, or that he won't simply start sending them later.

Or that he's not privately the serial killer or other scum role who would have access to anything that may be sent through the Post Office.

Even if he has nothing to do with it, he can be taken advantage of by someone to create rampant suspicion and general disarray, even moreso than what normally comes with Mafia.

It's a lot of power to leave out there to be abused and a bit too risky for me.

Or B_real could just be making the letters up in an attempt to create conflict between people I mean I don't see why he wouldn't just vote for the person who sent the "I'm going to kill you" letter to demetrius and he could be mafia aligned since just because he has a public role doesn't mean he is town aligned and this game would probably be pretty easy if none of the mafia had a public role.

edit: this was in response to pink bunny saying there are atleast 3 people sending letters.

Demetrius · 10-07-2007, 08:47 PM

CC's idea is what I was thinking when I made my vote.

Tendronai · 10-07-2007, 08:49 PM

I'd like to hear B_Real personally explain his role before I do anything.

Nayno · 10-07-2007, 09:26 PM

I say let him live. He's much more valuable as a weapon of the town than as a weapon of the mafia. Town can simply ignore him, as his power does not directly influence a town loss (as far as we know, he can't kill people or use any other power roles). If the mafia ignores him, they may suddenly find themselves having to deal with anonymous investigation results. B_real facilitates the delivery of information, so he may end up working for us whether he wants to or not.

If he's not scum aligned, he'll be dead very soon. If he is scum aligned, he'll probably be dead very soon (by means of serial killer). Let's not waste a lynch on him.

Conversely, if he is culted, everything that he's come across is now up for grabs to the leader. Moreso, he'd then have the power to send out any message the cultleader so deemed him to send.

It's a good role idea in theory, but in practice none of us can actually trust anything he sends out, besides that I'm convinced B-HS would not create a power role like this without having some pretty big catch attached to it on the private end.

It's too dangerous.

Tendronai · 10-07-2007, 09:47 PM

That is true, but there is a very easy way around this - we just don't trust anything B_Real sends us. In essence, we vanilla him.
