night 2 here mafia here mafia

Posted September 30, 2014 by Helius

Day 2

“Chief, you’ve been tailing us too closely. It’s now time for you to die.”
Chief rolled around in his office chair and shouted: “I’ve had my run. I’ll be the death of you yet. You just watch, mafia scum!” And with that the Mafia killed Chief.

In other parts of the Skyplex, white lancer was fast asleep when the Serial Killer struck. The residents of the Skyplex were concerned when a strange smell came from lancer’s apartment. They found him dead.

As the residents gathered around Chief’s body, the Apprentice knelt down closely. There was a message there for the Apprentice. The Apprentice hurried out of the room to become the Tracker.

Just wanted to point out because I forgot to mention it...

Lancer: Townie
Chief: Tracker

Kind of feel like lancer dying early on May be indicative of who the serial killer(s) may be.

September 30, 2014
`Roxas`

Day 2 and we've already lost a town power role (granted, not the worst one to lose so early, and we have an apprentice to take over the role). The Mafia are either very good or very lucky; which one, I'm not sure.

September 30, 2014
Black Yoshi

Why are town sided power roles colored red? That's really confusing.

September 30, 2014
The Bandit

White Lancer should be green too...

September 30, 2014
Castrael

I believe he was indicating who they were killed by.

September 30, 2014

I see...

September 30, 2014
Castrael

Yeah, confused me too.

September 30, 2014
Bubba

Yeah, losing the tracker this far into the game is not good, I'm just glad we had the apprentice as a backup.

Kind of feel like lancer dying early on May be indicative of who the serial killer(s) may be.
Please do tell

September 30, 2014
Lightvayne

I think chief was killed earlier due to his last game. One of the Mafia members prob wanted revenge.

September 30, 2014
Castrael

Since Chief was the tracker wouldn't he have been killed by following the wrong person or was he assassinated? Also, who would want to kill him?

September 30, 2014
Ghowilo

Since Chief was the tracker wouldn't he have been killed by following the wrong person or was he assassinated?

He was killed, serially.

September 30, 2014
CtR Black

Oh, CtR is right. Damn, the highlighting is confusing. Anyway, why the random voting?

September 30, 2014
Castrael

Sorry, Lancer was killed serially. Chief was killed by mafia

September 30, 2014
CtR Black

I'm going to strangle you CtR! I'm kidding! Lol. So, I was right about that then.

Anyway, I think we should focus on a no kill, but I don't. So, any ideas? I'll think of something myself.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

Day 2: Today Speed Bike Pro visited to provide us with groceries. He cooked his famous spaghetti and meatballs! Keaton threw up on her lap, though, and she just laughed it off. She's always been a kind gentle little girl, I hope she's not mafia.

October 1, 2014
Kyon

I think we should wait for the journalist. If they provide no useful info I'll probably no kill

October 1, 2014
CtR Black

Residents of the Skyplex also found an edition of the paper by their doors. One of the front line editions read:

What kind of info would be useful, CtR Black? Telling the town you're mafia, perhaps?
- Journalist

Apparently, the Journalist has the place bugged.

October 1, 2014
Helius

The random vote was because I didn't know who I wanted to vote for, I had the intention of changing it in the future.

October 1, 2014
Ghowilo

That's an interesting article. It kind of implies that CtR was checked, and the Journalist did get a result of him visiting Chief, but it doesn't explicitly state that, and it has such a playful tone that it comes off like a joke to me. It lets the Journalist potentially influence a lynch, but if it turns out CtR is innocent, the Journalist has the "it was just a joke guys, chill" excuse.

There are too many conveniences for the Journalist to get that lucky on the first day, and have the person he knows is guilty ask about the Journalist. The Journalist doesn't give a shit who wins, and that article is a really clever way to try to get us to think "wait, what? Did the Journalist get info on CtR or not?" But, all we have to do is remember that if the Journalist did actually have something, there wouldn't be much reason for him or her to be ambiguous about it. It should be a clear article stating "Hey, CtR looked at chief last night, better catch him" or whatever.

I could be overthinking it, of course, but it's such a strange comment to me that I'm not willing to trust it at all. Although, even if the Journalist is lying, that doesn't mean that CtR is innocent. So maybe it's worth taking the chance and lynching him. Even if he winds up innocent, we've learned some valuable info about our Journalist.

October 1, 2014
The Bandit

I'm a little surprised you think the Journalist is so hard to trust, Bandit.

I mean I get where you're coming from but this is very early in the game still. I don't think the Journalist would do something that would make him so hard to trust this early in the game. If CtR Black isn't mafia, then ok looks like we're just not going to trust the Journalist's claims anymore. I don't think there's really going to be anyone in the town that would simply react with "ok gotcha you were just joking that's cool I still trust you."

It's our only lead at the moment but it seems pretty solid.

October 1, 2014
MajorasMask9

Seems like a legit enough of a reason to me.

If the journalist is on our side, then it looks like we've basically obtained a detective role we have been severely missing. If the Journalist is wrong, then we know to just ignore further reports (which would have been a really stupid move on the Journalists' part.)

October 1, 2014
Lightvayne

This.

Not boarding the CtR Black lynchtrain until we get more than an anonymous post saying "how can mafia be real if ctr is not".

Anyway, I think we should focus on a no kill, but I don't.


Wat

I'm a little surprised you think the Journalist is so hard to trust, Bandit.


Well if you consider his history with the role..... (duck)

I also agree that we shouldn't be quick to form a bandwagon against him solely because of the article; however, I would still vote for him if there are no candidates better suited for a lynching because I don't know what else we have to go off of.

Well, except one thing:

I think chief was killed earlier due to his last game. One of the Mafia members prob wanted revenge.

~ Castrael

Something about this doesn't sit well with me tbqh. Full disclosure: part of the reason it doesn't sit well with me is because I jokingly told chief that he would be the first person I kill the next time I'm mafia. This may be a stretch and possibly a bit egocentric.... but I can't help but wonder if this was a mild attempt to steer suspicion toward me without explicitly calling me out, hoping that someone else would do that for her.

I'll put this here for now pending further discussion.

If only the Castrael vote had a chance of being successful.

I'm willing to test the integrity of our journalist. If they're making false allegations, then all they've earned is our distrust.

On the other hand, we might hit a useful Mafia role if things are on the level.

October 1, 2014
Count Dooku

We can make it meaningful, Dooku... Together... Only the power of teamwork and friendship is enough to vanquish evil and Castrael...

October 1, 2014
Speed Bike Pro
 

Lol Nathan, trying to put suspicion on me, eh? I don't think so.

@Dooku: What does that mean? XD

October 1, 2014
Castrael

What kind of info would be useful, CtR Black? Telling the town you're mafia, perhaps?

I think more consideration should be given to what The Bandit said. It doesn't completely seem as if the journalist is saying that I'm mafia, they're just speaking hypoheticals. The Journalist has the power to see whether or not a person left their room; it doesn't say I did such a thing, which I can guarantee I didn't. It says nothing of what I did it only says, and while it says it is telling you that it is only saying, that they are telling you I'm mafia.

With the lack of explicit information from the journalist and still the desire to lynch me I'd look more suspciously at those who haphazardly threw a vote toward me.

Nonetheless, this would be a way to verify the journalist. And i feel the sooner that's done the better.

October 1, 2014
CtR Black

This all just seems like a ploy for player points to me. After all, that's how the Journalist gets his points is by influencing lynches. Sure, a Mafia claim via Journalist seems highly incriminating for CtR, but I'm not willing to buy it.

October 1, 2014
Black Yoshi

Count Dooku was on the observation deck on his floor as the Marksman approached. Count Dooku was oblivious to the mafia member as the Mafia member pushed him off the observation deck. Count Dooku would not survive the 100 floor fall.

The Marksman slinked back into the shadows.

October 1, 2014
Helius

What was Dooku's role?

October 1, 2014
MajorasMask9

Whoa, yea. What was his role? At least he died first... XD

Anyway, CtR and journalist thing is confusing me. But, I'm not going to change my vote, so I'm trusting the journalist.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

He was a special club member.

October 1, 2014
Helius

CtR was sitting in his room looking over the newspaper and questioning why the Journalist hated him so much. It's not like he killed anyone... well, except for that one time! That was it! He swore!

A menacing shadow crept into the room and spoke in deep voice to keep him unrecognizable.

"Did you kill Dooku?"

CtR turned around and stared incredulously at the masked man before him. He squinted shortly there after.

"Do I know you from somewhere?"

The masked man began punching CtR.

"Did you kill the Dooku!?!?"

CtR knowing his life was at an end shouted!

"I did! I did kill the Dooku! I confess. W-w-who are you?"

The masked man smirked...

"I'm the Batman."

POW!

CtR Black, the Marksman was killed by the Guard

Ok now can we lynch Castrael?

October 1, 2014
Jo Nathan

Also for what it's worth, even though CtR didn't technically get lynched, I think the journalist deserves his points for that. <3

October 1, 2014
Jo Nathan

We heard a gunshot outside, Keaton and Andy rushed to me and we hid under the floorboards. Why is this happening? What did we do wrong? I just want peace again.... just once more before I die.

October 1, 2014
Kyon

Muahaha, eat slugs Mafia @Dooku.

Why is CtR black green? He was Mafia right?

I don't see the reason why you should vote for me. Honestly, I think Nathan is the next Mafia.

Once I said what I said (Townie), he wants to make sure all attention goes towards me.

part of the reason it doesn't sit well with me is because I jokingly told chief that he would be the first person I kill the next time I'm mafia.


This. I don't remember him saying that at all, but chief ended up dying first. Am I rite, guys?

Then,

This may be a stretch and possibly a bit egocentric.... but I can't help but wonder if this was a mild attempt to steer suspicion toward me without explicitly calling me out, hoping that someone else would do that for her.


He completely turns around and defends himself, putting blame on the "so-called" easy target. Sorry buddy, I don't swing like that.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

Oh, Speed could be next too. Soooo, with that, we can focus on him later.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

*with that said

effin typos.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

Oh, and The Bandit, but I wanna see his expression first when he sees that CtR Black was the Marksman.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

Wow, I've missed a lot. It's interesting how today's series of kills has worked out, but seems to have worked out well enough for us. I still don't have a whole lot of time to devote to the game, but I'll keep trying to find time to pop in quick.

Can someone tl;dr me the suspicions of Castrael?

October 1, 2014
hezekiah

It's essentially her desire for a no kill that makes me think she's mafia.

October 1, 2014
Ghowilo

Good move by the guard to jump in and take out a clearly panicked Marksman. Big lol at the Journalist losing points though. I was inclined to believe him, as no journalist wants to lose his credibility this early in the game.

Can someone tl;dr me the suspicions of Castrael?

Castrael said ,

"I think chief was killed earlier due to his last game. One of the Mafia members prob wanted revenge."

Jo Nathan claims he said during the last game he wanted to kill Cheif first this time around. Jo thinks Castrael is trying to use his words against him for a cheap lynch.

October 1, 2014
Bubba

Can someone tl;dr me the suspicions of Castrael?


Well not so much "suspicions" plural since it was only me... until Ghowilo came along with his own reason, anyway.

Bubba summed my thoughts up. I did acknowledge that it could be a stretch considering the fact that she never explicitly called me or anyone else out by name, but I don't really have any other suspicions. It's feasible that she was trying to imply something cautiously instead of coming out guns a-blazin' and drawing attention to herself. It's also feasible that I might be making an ass of myself, but that's a risk I'm willing to take.

October 1, 2014
Jo Nathan

"I think chief was killed earlier due to his last game. One of the Mafia members prob wanted revenge."


I said this because I remembered the last game I hosted. Chief did a great job at taking out 2 (I think?) mafia players. Mafia would definitely want him gone since he's a good player.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

Why would you focus on me? Also I should probably look at the list of roles so that I'm less flabbergasted as to how 18 people have died in the last 24 hours.

And that, when Nathan tries to place suspicion on me.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

o, the "laughing" was in response to this:

Anyway, I think we should focus on a no kill, but I don't.


Besides, all I'm saying is that you dying is a possibility we should consider, don't see why that makes me such a target for focus......................

October 1, 2014

Anyway, I think we should focus on a no kill, but I don't.


Ohhh, I said that because I know how much you guys hated it when I constantly changed my vote..... so, with that said, yea.

don't see why that makes me such a target for focus......................


Because I'd be a waste of a kill, honestly. We should focus more on Mafia.

October 1, 2014
Castrael

My suspicion is leaning toward Cas as well. Depending if she is Mafia or not will bring pieces of the puzzle closer together.

October 1, 2014
Lady Flare

Don't see why everybody is so keen on jumping on the Cas train...seems more like desperation than outright suspicion. I'll post more in-depth thoughts next time I'm at my computer rather than on my phone.

October 1, 2014
Black Yoshi

Whoa sudden activity o_O

Looks like the Journalist is on our side ^_^ (for now anyways)
Its too bad we couldn't take him out before he got to Dooku. It was still never explained what the special Club Member did/does. :/

As for the whole Jo Nathan/Castrel thing, they honestly both look suspicious to me as they seem to be both attacking each other, but then again it also a expected response.

I'm just gonna stand back a bit want watch how this plays out(sad)

October 2, 2014
Lightvayne

{fp}

I just don't see how this
"I think chief was killed earlier due to his last game. One of the Mafia members prob wanted revenge."


I was only expressing my opinion. I still think Nathan is Mafia...

October 2, 2014
Castrael

Goodbye Cas.

October 2, 2014
The Bandit

Whoa I missed a lot.

Actually didn't really find much suspicious with what Cas said but then again I'm not good at reading people.

But I think pretty much anyone would want cheif out the way as guesses on mafia have been pretty spot on.

October 2, 2014
EvilGuy0613

The last game I played, someone said something like this as well, I'm pretty sure it was Castrael and that person turned out to be mafia so...

Because I'd be a waste of a kill, honestly. We should focus more on Mafia.


October 2, 2014
Ghowilo

I'm with Black Yoshi on this, I don't see why everyone is voting for Castrael right now.

Have more to say but busy and need sleep so maybe sometime tomorrow if I have time. It's nothing too big anyway.

October 2, 2014
MajorasMask9

Goodbye Cas.


I'll be laughing on the other side.



October 2, 2014
Castrael

Hmm... I'm not ready to kill Cas yet. Her comment about wasting a kill sort of sounds like she's a Townie.

I'm curious about SDYoshi. Yes he tends to be on the inactive side, but he's only made one appearance so far this game. His inactivity is even notable for him. So I'm changing my vote. I remember when he was Mafia he also dropped off the face of the world.

October 2, 2014
Lady Flare

I'm not changing my vote on the basis that SD has been inactive in the game I'm hosting as well.

October 2, 2014
Ghowilo

@Serial Killer: I hope you kill Nathan.

October 2, 2014
Castrael

If you really are a townie, me voicing suspicions of you is not proof that I'm mafia. {:/}

At any rate, after sleeping on it, I'm not so confident that Cas is mafia anymore. As much as I hate to flip-flop after the spectacle I made yesterday... well, I'm sorry. I find it more likely that I was reading too much into her comment and I feel like I need to rescind my vote.

October 2, 2014
Jo Nathan

Now that I'm on my computer, I can post some more in-depth thoughts about the whole thing (just don't expect any novels from me).

Sure, we lost one of our own, but at least he wasn't a power role. I mean, he was a Special Club member, but aside from access to their own thread, they're just Townies otherwise, so not a big loss for the Town in terms of roles. It is, however, a huge loss for us in terms of a spectacular player. Dooku has always been among the strongest players in Mafia, regardless of role and affiliation, so I can see why he was the one taken out.

And I can also see why the Guard took out CtR -- apparently the Journalist is on our side and gave us a Mafia free for the killing. With CtR's death, however, comes a question -- to lynch or not to lynch? I'm more than in favor of not lynching since CtR would have gone this round regardless, and recklessness in Mafia has cost the Town the game on at least a few occasions. I say it's a better idea to No Kill this round and start fresh next round; whatever happens in the Night could be to our advantage. And as it stands, there's nothing really to go on.

October 2, 2014
Black Yoshi

Thanks Nathan, I really appreciate that. Yeah, it happens. I'll read into a comment for so long and then analyze it into my words. So, my attack towards you wasn't personal. I was hoping you'd see where I was coming from before this round ends.

October 2, 2014
Castrael

I don't want no stinkin' last minute tomfoolery so I'll just do this now.

October 2, 2014

Changing it from CTR. No point in keeping a vote on a dead guy :V

October 2, 2014

October 3, 2014

I suppose I'll jump on the band wagon too, but I think we're making a mistake.

Pretty safe bet going after CtR, but it would have been better to keep him a live a little bit longer, considering he could have potentially given us a more substantial lead on the Mafia, but a 2-for-1 without lynching is great too.

I think it's safe to say that Apollo was most likely silenced, based off the way she plays.

If it weren't for the fact that when killed, that player is highlighted by the killing party's color, I'd have said CtR killed chief while the Mafia killed lancer, but the Serial Killer(s) do throw a bit of a wrench into how this game will play out.

I get a feeling that The serial killer didn't just choose lancer off the player list at random. This person would be one to target the strong players first, which may be the Mafia's plan as well, but we'll just have to see. Maybe it was just a random kill, but I highly doubt that.

Any way, time is winding down in the round and with no actual chance for a lynch to happen, barring a miracle, i'll go along with the vote.

October 3, 2014
`Roxas`

I think it's safe to say that Apollo was most likely silenced, based off the way she plays.

Or she's just busy irl.

I haven't heard a word out of Hindenburg all game, I'm pretty sure he got the silence treatment.

And with that, the town chose to not kill anyone for the day.
