Lies! -I'm Buffy Summers, town tracker. I used my ability on you and saw that you didn't use any abilities before the game started. My flavor is I was sucked through a mysterious space-time portal and I'm here to kill all the vampires, and my tracking ability is a combination of my Slayer and Native American skills.
Now that's done we think we can get on with the lynch. We need 3 more votes from valued members of the international community by our count.
(We will also accept votes from non-valued members of the international community if they are not on already, but request that you specify if you are non-valued in your post)
I'd love to hear what Zionite thinks about Jobie being scum.
I am a bit disappointed, as I trusted in his excuse for inactivity. I shouldn't have though, because now i see a difference in this game and the previous ones.
But hey, you win some you lose some. Thats why there's more town than scum, figure these things out together.
Want to tell me why you'd even listen to the answer, if he answered?
I'm curious so I asked. I'll listen to it mull it over, but its not going to change anything for me.
Though go ahead, tell me how my answer would've made me seem scummier to you. I want to hear why you asked that question and what the point of the probe was. What did you expect me to say and what would've made you suspicious?
I find probing questions that have no point highly suspicious.
...So I was right? People should really start listening to the mad confirmed townie that is randomly pointing fingers. He knows things. gets lucky. Vote Jobie
...So I was right? People should really start listening to the mad confirmed townie that is randomly pointing fingers. He knows things who's most likely to die.

Um, You were Asking a confirmed Anti-Town to provide information. you were asking for an addition of Wifom to the thread. I see no protown reason for asking Scum a question, about their play, after they've claimed scum. I could rephrase it again if you'd like.I guess it's also time to Vote Jobie

Yes so WIFOM seeing as how Cyan is going to die tomorrow
So tell me then, why not suspicious of Syrenz for asking the same type of question?

Without the agents around to supervise, the group walks over to Jobie with blood in its eyes. He puts up his hands. "Alright, you got me. I'm definitely guilty... of being a famous musician!" From his bag, he whips out a guitar and proceeds to play "Pinball Wizard", to the utter confusion of the crowd around him.
After a few minutes to pay tribute to the great song, you proceed to express your appreciation by beating him to a pulp with his guitar.

Xavier stands guard outside the conference room, peering into his last bottle of cream soda. With a groan, he sets it down on the floor, staring off into the dark of the hallway. Outside, the noise has vanished completely, the protesters finally having given over to the rescue effort, but even that seems to have petered off. "So is this what purgatory sounds like? Nothing?" he asked the rubble.
"I don't know, and frankly, am insulted that you think nobody's listening to your ramble all night," Arvanis says, rubbing his eyes with thumb and index finger as he steps from the hallway. "If it's not the protesters, it's the machines. If it's not the machines, it's you."
"Sorry. Couldn't stop thinking about all of this." Arvanis nods curtly and hands over a water bottle, from which Xavier takes a halfhearted sip. "'s not the same."
"So what are we going to do?" Arvanis asks.
"I suppose we're going to stay here until they kill all of each other and then leave and say we found no survivors. Better than wander back into that room again. The bodies are starting to reek, it's..." He picks up the empty glass bottle and, with a yell, throws it across the room. Rather than smash to pieces, though, it clinks, as if bouncing off bone, and rolls back toward them.
Arvanis pulls out his flashlight and points it in that direction. In the corner, mystery meat of doom's body slumped body lies, partitioned by a rivulet of blood from his chest. "Aw, ****..." He walks over and leans down, pulling a small laminated passkey from the pocket of the deceased with a gasp. "No, no, no, not... what was he doing here?"
Xavier stares at the remains, his aghast expression frozen. "How did I not see..."
With a roar, Arvanis turns to Xavier and points at his bag. "Call the Secret Service, now!"

We wonder if the fact that the kill method (shot) was different from the previous kills (pipe bomb) means anything. And we wait for AI to tell us if RafK is a valued member of the international community. We also request that MDM claims now. If he is town we need to know we can kill Cyan today.
Lies! -I'm Buffy Summers, town tracker. I used my ability on you and saw that you didn't use any abilities before the game started. My flavor is I was sucked through a mysterious space-time portal and I'm here to kill all the vampires, and my tracking ability is a combination of my Slayer and Native American skills.

That leaves me with Dancing Mad, PoD or (outside possibility) Calvin.
Let's fire up the barbie. Cyan shoots one, we lynch the other one, we call it a game?
vote DM.
That depends if we trust Cyan right now, he has no real reason to follow anything we say. Although atm we think Cyan can be trusted as we think he does want to move on to the next game as quickly as possible and that involves town winning.
Let's see if we have an extra daykill courtesy of the guy who took the shotgun from the pile.
Honestly I don't want to give Cyan time to shoot. He has no incentive to work with us and at this point I think it should be pretty clear that he is the SK.

Let's see if we have an extra daykill courtesy of the guy who took the shotgun from the pile.
I do trust him. He's already admitted he is the SK and he knows there's just no way an outed SK will ever win. And he wants this game to be over. I think he'll kill whoever we ask.
I don't trust Mysterious Daykill Man. I'd rather have Cyan shooting than that unknown variable.
I am still unkillable, and I have the Reader. There's no point in anyone else having it. I can't see there being more than one mafioso remaining, and the game is over when he dies..townie PMs being revealed just gives the scum information.
Though frankly, I'm pretty surprised that they're still going. Jobie's terrible gambit yesterday pretty much ruined whatever miniscule chance the mafia had of winning. If I was his buddy, honestly, I'd probably throw in the towel and move on to the next game.
Just to clarify something I've gotten a few questions on:
Death posts feature items the dead player had in his possession when he died. This is to make sure people know the items exist. However, one or more of those items may have been taken by the killer or others, so this is not the most accurate version of the current status.
To find the most accurate version of the current status, check the first post, which has the correct version of all items in the discard pile.
Honestly I don't want to give Cyan time to shoot. He has no incentive to work with us and at this point I think it should be pretty clear that he is the SK.
Well yes, he's admitted that he's the SK. Still I see no reason why we shouldn't direct his kill before he goes. I don't think he would kill anyone out of spite here. This situation reminds me of SoT where we passed up a vig offer from the SK (DV) and lynched him instead. Turned out that letting him shoot would have been quite a boon. I think neutrals in this situation have already consigned themselves to death/loss and don't mind playing along with the town.
To be clear, it's not about 'playing along with the town'. Why would anyone, ever, do that? It gains them nothing.
I just want the game to be over, so that a new game can start(maybe one where either I'm not the SK, or there isn't some ridiculous 'lynch the SK' role..or I don't get investigated N1..). Plus, I'm pretty sure Xyre wants this game to be over now, thanks to DV's terrible posts.
Anyway..that was probably a pointless post. But oh well.
If we could get a vote again though, that would be fantastic. Having to read this thread for another week just to kill someone and then immediately get lynched is fairly unappealing.
I've probably just forgotten, but what has Niv done this game that has kept him out of the current suspect pool?
Having 3 kills today seems optimal, though. You can get claims from(and if need be, get rid of) both PoD and DM. Assuming that DM has anything else to claim.

Let's see if we have an extra daykill courtesy of the guy who took the shotgun from the pile.
Lair of the Cat (Mafia Stats)
Right, him being the SK means he still has to die actually. But we can lynch him after he daykills possibly if we trust him.
Lair of the Cat (Mafia Stats)
I do trust him. He's already admitted he is the SK and he knows there's just no way an outed SK will ever win. And he wants this game to be over. I think he'll kill whoever we ask.
I don't trust Mysterious Daykill Man. I'd rather have Cyan shooting than that unknown variable.
"...a talisman against all evil, so long as you obey me."
Let's just move the game along accordingly. There's no real need to think hard about this one.
Pretty sure that the last mafia is either PoD or DM. Hard to see it being anyone else.
Hard to believe that anyone thought MMoD was scum. He was literally the townie-est I have ever seen him be.
MDM should shoot Cyan immediately and then notify us in the blog.
Who's got the RFID Reader?
Though frankly, I'm pretty surprised that they're still going. Jobie's terrible gambit yesterday pretty much ruined whatever miniscule chance the mafia had of winning. If I was his buddy, honestly, I'd probably throw in the towel and move on to the next game.
I indoctrinated AI on the suspicion that the scum would want to get rid of him since he is pretty much a cop.
But Xyre said that he was waiting on somethings that were pending so I don't know if I indoctrinated him yet.
I lol'ed.

I wouldn't go that far. He may still be of some use.
Ah. I was confused for a moment.
