Hmmm interesting......If you were scum i was expecting you to follow SB's lead and change your claim to a neutered down vig....but you're still claiming straight vig.
However, instead of pulling that scummy move, you proceed to make posts against sutherlands, who you had not made any accusations toward before (it was previously CP till you die). This tips the scales in my opinion....
Sutherlands hadn't done anything to draw my suspicion until his odd reversal. The fact is I simply wanted to note my suspicion before I died, since it was more than clear nothing I could do would prevent that... and of course I was right.
I find it interesting that AI seems to be the only one who even attempted to see things from my point of view, and was the only one who even slightly hesitated to lynch a claimed vig. In fact, AI seems to be the only one with an accurate read on the situation. I made some poor posts, by my wagon was blown ridiculously out of proportion. Though frustrated, I'm not too upset by the lynch; I think it will provide the town with a lot of useful info. One last thing before I go:
I had an additional win condition. Other than the scum dying, I needed to kill a specific role name. Because of the wording of my PM I have reason to believe this role is town ("kill the scum and so and so") and I also believe someone breadcrumbed the rolename I was looking for. It should be obvious why I didn't say anything before now; I'm saying it now because knowing the quirk of my role might be useful to the town later on. I'm honestly not sure whether it would be best for the town to reveal the role and player name; I'll let the town decide but make it fast.

It wasn't an odd reversal, and if I need to defend myself from THAT I will do so easily. I would say that you should say the name. It's a free inspection, so why wouldn't you? (Assuming you're telling the truth at this point)

Hey, you! Yeah, you behind the computer screen! You're unconstitutional.
EBWODP: I should make it clear I do not know for a fact the role in question is town, but that the wording of my win condition seemed to put that role in a seperate category from scum, since if that role was scum then that role would obviously die as a result of all the scum dying.
Also, if the town (and by town I mean one or two people since I don't have time for a consensus) wishes for me to reveal the role info, please specificy whether you want me to reveal the role name, player name, where I saw the breadcrumb, or any combination of the the above.

The role is Bart Simpson. Flavor-wise, I blame him for disrupting my pursuit of terrorists that resulting in a nuke going off and me being disgraced. Whether he is deserving of blame is unclear, but I want revenge.

The Golden Rule of forums: If you're going to be rude, be right. If you might be wrong, be polite.
If you're telling the truth, the role is likely to be town. There are a few neutral possibilities(hitman, survivor). But the role can't be mafia or any kind of aggressive anti-town role. Honestly, it's much more likely than not to be town, and is yet another cleared townie. Which is think is pretty suspect. I mean, Bateleur, theoretically, has 3 people that are 'cleared town' and 1 that is guaranteed scum. You have the name of a role that is almost sure to be town. It's a little strange, to say the least.
EWP: Well, if you're bluffing that, you're a genius. Though Bart Simpson is definitely a role that I could see being neutral. Regardless, the flavor there involves an episode of the Simpsons that spoofs 24(Keifer Sutherland even does the voice of Jack Bauer for the spoofing).
So we've resolved Question 1 (Should Bate reveal the blacklist)
We still havent decided on question 2: Should SB vig and if so, whom.
Meh, whatever....at least this way the mafia wont know the answer to that question themselves.
Vote Kraj.
I think you just made yourself an attractive option for question two.
But in actuality, we really ought not have stormblind firing at ANYONE who has not claimed and been selected by a majority opinion of the town. Which is why allowing the day to continue longer would have been an excellent idea, although no one until you had much to say about my second lynch plan.
As is, Stormblind, you should absolutely NOT fire at anyone, tonight.
Not at all. In fact, I'll make this statement right now.
if at ANY POINT IN THE GAME I try to use you not voting kraj D1 as a point against you, quote this post and I'll gladly let the town do whatever they want, including having me modkilled.
To put it lightly, votes seem to do a lot more than lynch people in this game.

@Charm So you can make a case on how I wasnt voting kraj tomorrow?
That seems totally out of the blue.
This is a nice opportunity to point out I think CPE has been rather scummy this game. He's posted relatively little, most of his posts haven't had much real content, and many of them have struck me as scummy. Him and CP are definitely my two most suspicious; and as much as I've tried to see things from his point of view, I have a hard time believing Azrael wasn't knowlingly making a much bigger deal out of my behaviors than was warranted, and wasn't intentionally omitting a good chunk of my posts, which often already contained reasonable explanations for my behavior, from his case.

Michael stands up, holding his remote. "Now that you've decided the victim, allow me to introduce the next element of this game." He presses another button.
The panels of the committee room revolve, and you all discover the reason why. Hundreds of weapons - medieval, antique, modern - are stocked in shelves hidden behind the committee walls. The meeting room immediately turns into an armory.
"That's taken care of. Feel free to take whatever you wish to, well, do your business." And with that morbid gesture, Michael strides out of the room, presumably to prepare some coffee.
Kraj turns pale. "Michael? Michael! Don't leave me, man!"
Loran, holding what appears to be a baseball bat, swings it at Kraj's leg. "Shut up."
Kraj, with all the training of a ninja, leaps out of the way and pulls out a gun. "I don't want to shoot you people, but I will if I have to." He swings it around the room as the group collectively ducks. "Now, where is Bart Simpson? I have a score to set-"
A crossbow bolt appears instantly from his chest. He gasps, clutching the ballistic, then sighs. "Damn." He then pitches forward, splintering the arrow, into his own blood on the billiard table. Treigit smiles, blowing away imaginary smoke from the bow in his hand.
The group somberly moves to Kraj's room to survey the surroundings. There's a box of bullets, and a few guns, and a few hundred journals, all with the phrase "Kill Bart Simpson" written in them, but no sign that he was anything other than just Jack Bauer, Town Vigilante. Disappointing.
Michael wanders back into the room. "Well, then, gentlemen, I see you've gotten into the spirit of things. It is now late. Please retire to your rooms, and we'll return tomorrow."
I will be on vaction starting Saturday, unable to post that day but will have internet access the rest of the week until the following Saturday, when I again will not be able to post. It should not keep me from posting regularly during that week, except for Thrusday due to the holiday. I'll just be visiting family so there will be time to get on line and post.
The night has been restless, and many of you have been unable to sleep. More than a few of you are nursing hangovers and nightmares as you wander into the grand kitchen, to a plate of fresh pastries and coffee prepared by Michael this morning. As you sit, waiting for the others, you begin recounting the horrors of the previous day... how Kraj had fought to stay alive, and how you had mercilessly torn him to pieces. More than a few of you know that you can't hope to succeed doing things like that.
Once you're satisfied that everyone has arrived, you do a head count, but quickly discover that two of you are missing. The crowd spreads out, but rapidly finds the first absentee in the dining hall.
The room is a mess of shattered glass and crystal, and most of you, still in your slippers and robes, stay far away from their epicenter. This ends up being a giant chandelier, one of several suspended from the ceiling, which has apparently come loose. Underneath it, you find Azrael's crushed, torn body. You move to look at him, but you quickly realize that the glass and steel have done a number to him; indeed, he's beyond recognition.
Lying next to the body, you find a piece of paper. "It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck could change."
Next, you move out to the bedrooms, and you find the second victim lying outside his room. Outside, in this case, is a relative term, as Charm_Master is indeed embedded in the wall outside his room, as if propelled by a tremendous force. Blood is everywhere, and you quickly recognize that not only is he smashed against the wall, but Charm_Master's not even in one piece; his head is lying nearby, as if someone had popped it off. Fortunately, this makes it rather easy to determine that he's Huey Freeman, Town Analyst.
Looking around, you notice a note lying by his body, as with the others. "Rain down, rain down, come on rain down on me
From a great height, from a great height."
Confused and frightened by the scene in front of you, you slowly work your way back to the boardroom. The state of affairs was starting to look bad for the town.
What?! Look at the initial post; he is dead. Deceased. Kaputt. Indefinitely horizontal. In mafia games, you see, people are occasionally "killed off," and when that sad event occurs, he or she is no longer allowed to post, on account of rigor mortis and what-have-you.
'Welcome to Mafia Salvation', it said, 'Population: 3,660.' And someone, they never figured out who, had painted on the sign in red letters: '1,831 to lynch.'
SB, did you do that kill? If so would you please vote someone so as to show that your restriction is real?

So, do we think that Az's mysterious circumstances were the result of his role, the role that killed him or a third party? I think this is mostly blind speculation as we're not likely to know for some time still (if at all).
Unless Azrael's killer wants to tells us who he/she is and whether the non-reveal is their fault, I suspect we won't know the answer to that. At least until we see if it happens again.
HE7: So it's just Radiohead songs? Ugh. I was hoping to get an actual clue out of that stuff.
Kraj didn't think it was suspicious enough that both his and SB's role were in the same game, but you do? WHY ARE YOU SO SCUMMY?
Let's be honest here. Kraj was lynched in large part because the town didn't believe in the possibility of two pro-town vigs capable of multiple kills. Whether or not Kraj himself came to that conclusion is irrelevent, and the point is equally as valid today as yesterday.
What?! Look at the initial post; he is dead. Deceased. Kaputt. Indefinitely horizontal. In mafia games, you see, people are occasionally "killed off," and when that sad event occurs, he or she is no longer allowed to post, on account of rigor mortis and what-have-you.

"You still might. I just know the songs I haven't been able to see any clue right off the bat, but that ain't to say there isn't one."
It good Joe, hot and strong, but it isn't quite cutting through the morning fog in my head. Too early for a real drink, well not without a reason, so I quickly down a couple of ES's to help get my brain working.
Sigh!
"yeah, that's good Joe."
"Hopefully we will get everyone checking in soon. maybe a report of confession or two."

First off, we need to hear from Stormblind as to whether either of those kills was him.
Quote from CP »
Vote Stormblind.
Obviously.
I don't think it's nearly so clear-cut. I think it would be odd for Xyre to incude 1.5 vigs in his setup, but not nearly as odd as Stormblind's play yesterday, if he were lying. He wasn't at the forefront of discussion, let alone under pressure, when he suddenly claimed to try to catch bateleur in a lie. SK claiming vig on Day 1 when under no suspicion just doesn't make sense, nor does a mafioso making that claim. Perhaps we'll have to test him at some point (assuming he didn't fire last night), but I definitely don't think we lynch him today.
Ah... interesting indeed.
No i didnt fire, for the sheer sake that i didnt wanna gimp myself so early, and i didn't think it'd work even if i tried it. To prove it.
Vote CP

"Ah heh! Yes, well, so it was. Sorry about that. I'll have to go back and unmix up my notes. "

You know, i hate that tell. It's the "goddamn, the <insert power role here> is dead. That sucks" tell. The last time i saw people vote because of it, it was in Blizzard mafia. And the person who said it was town.
In other words...i hate that tell, its not really a good indicator of scumminess.
Now then, Vote Stormblind. The fact that you didn't fire is AWFULLY convenient.

I disagree.
The main issue was that Kraj himself made an epic fail. He absolutely needed to address the issue of StormBlind in his claim post and failed to do so.
I am not convinced StormBlind is the lynch for today. His behaviour yesterday makes no sense to me as scum, so for him to be a scum it would have to be a very bold bluff.
As for Azrael, he died because he tried to kill me. I wouldn't shed too many tears if I were you. With (seemingly) two town killing roles already, I somehow don't think he was town.

Cute, although the powers you claim grow by the hour.
Unfortunately Azrael is not in a position to confirm or deny being a killer, so we only have your word for it that that's what happened. I guess it rules out Stormblind from having killed Az (although not from killing charm master).
The main issue was that Kraj himself made an epic fail. He absolutely needed to address the issue of StormBlind in his claim post and failed to do so.

Okay, whatever, dude. You'd think that, having claimed an unbelievably broken role already, you'd let well enough alone.
I'm going to assume you want to be lynched, because there's no other excuse for such ridiculous lying otherwise. Maybe you have some variant of CPE's role from Redux or something; I don't know. It'd be nice if you could at least stop acting like you expect to be believed, though.:-/

Nice try. But no, my offer to be lynched no longer stands. I was trying to discourage SB from vigging me yesterday so he wouldn't get himself killed, but now that's no longer an issue I don't have to play around it.
I like the idea of lynching you though.

Michael stands up, holding his remote. "Now that you've decided the victim, allow me to introduce the next element of this game." He presses another button.
The panels of the committee room revolve, and you all discover the reason why. Hundreds of weapons - medieval, antique, modern - are stocked in shelves hidden behind the committee walls. The meeting room immediately turns into an armory.
"That's taken care of. Feel free to take whatever you wish to, well, do your business." And with that morbid gesture, Michael strides out of the room, presumably to prepare some coffee.
Kraj turns pale. "Michael? Michael! Don't leave me, man!"
Loran, holding what appears to be a baseball bat, swings it at Kraj's leg. "Shut up."
Kraj, with all the training of a ninja, leaps out of the way and pulls out a gun. "I don't want to shoot you people, but I will if I have to." He swings it around the room as the group collectively ducks. "Now, where is Bart Simpson? I have a score to set-"
A crossbow bolt appears instantly from his chest. He gasps, clutching the ballistic, then sighs. "Damn." He then pitches forward, splintering the arrow, into his own blood on the billiard table. Treigit smiles, blowing away imaginary smoke from the bow in his hand.
The group somberly moves to Kraj's room to survey the surroundings. There's a box of bullets, and a few guns, and a few hundred journals, all with the phrase "Kill Bart Simpson" written in them, but no sign that he was anything other than just Jack Bauer, Town Vigilante. Disappointing.
Michael wanders back into the room. "Well, then, gentlemen, I see you've gotten into the spirit of things. It is now late. Please retire to your rooms, and we'll return tomorrow."

Once you're satisfied that everyone has arrived, you do a head count, but quickly discover that two of you are missing. The crowd spreads out, but rapidly finds the first absentee in the dining hall.
The room is a mess of shattered glass and crystal, and most of you, still in your slippers and robes, stay far away from their epicenter. This ends up being a giant chandelier, one of several suspended from the ceiling, which has apparently come loose. Underneath it, you find Azrael's crushed, torn body. You move to look at him, but you quickly realize that the glass and steel have done a number to him; indeed, he's beyond recognition.
Lying next to the body, you find a piece of paper.
"It's gonna be a glorious day
I feel my luck could change."
Next, you move out to the bedrooms, and you find the second victim lying outside his room. Outside, in this case, is a relative term, as Charm_Master is indeed embedded in the wall outside his room, as if propelled by a tremendous force. Blood is everywhere, and you quickly recognize that not only is he smashed against the wall, but Charm_Master's not even in one piece; his head is lying nearby, as if someone had popped it off. Fortunately, this makes it rather easy to determine that he's Huey Freeman, Town Analyst.
Looking around, you notice a note lying by his body, as with the others.
"Rain down, rain down, come on rain down on me
From a great height, from a great height."
Confused and frightened by the scene in front of you, you slowly work your way back to the boardroom. The state of affairs was starting to look bad for the town.

I walk over to the buffet, find the biggest mug around and fill it with what smells like some mighty fine Joe. Jeez!, real, fresh bake cressants! Oh man, I fix up two with butter and marmalade, grab an apple and a glass of cranberry jiuce then head over to the nearest table to settle in and give my breakfast what for. It was all fresh and good and it didn't stand a chance.
“Nice spread there Mike, thanks.”
I head back to the buffet to get a refill on the Joe.
“So, the bad guys were pretty busy last night. I wonder what the good guys were doing.”
“Anybody got anything they’d like to confess about what they did last night?”

HE7: So it's just Radiohead songs? Ugh. I was hoping to get an actual clue out of that stuff.
Let's be honest here. Kraj was lynched in large part because the town didn't believe in the possibility of two pro-town vigs capable of multiple kills. Whether or not Kraj himself came to that conclusion is irrelevent, and the point is equally as valid today as yesterday.

"You still might. I just know the songs I haven't been able to see any clue right off the bat, but that ain't to say there isn't one."
It good Joe, hot and strong, but it isn't quite cutting through the morning fog in my head. Too early for a real drink, well not without a reason, so I quickly down a couple of ES's to help get my brain working.
Sigh!
"yeah, that's good Joe."
"Hopefully we will get everyone checking in soon. maybe a report of confession or two."

It's hard to describe just how good the first Camel of the day tastes. The glow is just starting too. It's goping to be a good day.
"Something else interesting is that was might get more information from Az's parting words then from the death scene. My memory is a little slow this morning, who was it that also claimed to be Big Brother?

First off, we need to hear from Stormblind as to whether either of those kills was him.
I don't think it's nearly so clear-cut. I think it would be odd for Xyre to incude 1.5 vigs in his setup, but not nearly as odd as Stormblind's play yesterday, if he were lying. He wasn't at the forefront of discussion, let alone under pressure, when he suddenly claimed to try to catch bateleur in a lie. SK claiming vig on Day 1 when under no suspicion just doesn't make sense, nor does a mafioso making that claim. Perhaps we'll have to test him at some point (assuming he didn't fire last night), but I definitely don't think we lynch him today.
No i didnt fire, for the sheer sake that i didnt wanna gimp myself so early, and i didn't think it'd work even if i tried it. To prove it.
Vote CP
"Ah heh! Yes, well, so it was. Sorry about that. I'll have to go back and unmix up my notes. "

With as much dignity as i can muster I make my way over to get some more Joe.

In other words...i hate that tell, its not really a good indicator of scumminess.
Now then, Vote Stormblind. The fact that you didn't fire is AWFULLY convenient.

Millionaires, I hear it's good Music (Disclaimer: lyrics not PG-13) Thanks, CC
I disagree.
The main issue was that Kraj himself made an epic fail. He absolutely needed to address the issue of StormBlind in his claim post and failed to do so.
I am not convinced StormBlind is the lynch for today. His behaviour yesterday makes no sense to me as scum, so for him to be a scum it would have to be a very bold bluff.
As for Azrael, he died because he tried to kill me. I wouldn't shed too many tears if I were you. With (seemingly) two town killing roles already, I somehow don't think he was town.

Unfortunately Azrael is not in a position to confirm or deny being a killer, so we only have your word for it that that's what happened. I guess it rules out Stormblind from having killed Az (although not from killing charm master).
Okay, whatever, dude. You'd think that, having claimed an unbelievably broken role already, you'd let well enough alone.
I'm going to assume you want to be lynched, because there's no other excuse for such ridiculous lying otherwise. Maybe you have some variant of CPE's role from Redux or something; I don't know. It'd be nice if you could at least stop acting like you expect to be believed, though.:-/

Nice try. But no, my offer to be lynched no longer stands. I was trying to discourage SB from vigging me yesterday so he wouldn't get himself killed, but now that's no longer an issue I don't have to play around it.
I like the idea of lynching you though.
