And I was total garbage as to clue interpreting. I didn't even notice the DrH/scalpel thing until meeples pointed it out to me by PM.


Clue interpreting felt to me like people overall found it less important than behavioral stuff, which is probably more reliable anyway.

One more thing: I had the "lynch DrH" post ready 24h before posting it. In fact, I even sent it to meeple (and maybe Ng5 as well?) for comments. Why I waited: I wanted to try to get DrH to react to other clues on the forum. When I asked him if he saw a link to anyone and the mist clue and he said he can't think of anyone, Mysltlord's fate was pretty much sealed.

Mystlord's reaction to the "lynch DrH" post solidified my suspicions, but at that point he awas already very next on the list.

I facepalmed the instant I read DrH's defense of me in the tea clue. I knew I was going to be dead the instant DrH got caught.

Jugan asked me in a pm to post what I think of recent events.

First, I'm very sad that we lost a detective early on, through what I think stupid play. What's done is done, but there is still a lesson to be learned. Blues should hide as much from the Mafia as the Mafia is hiding from the town.

Don't do anything suspicious. Be careful who you communicate with in private. Make sure the public knows who you are talking to if something goes wrong.

Second, as for double lynch, there is a decent chance that a new set of clues will allow us to nail at least one Mafia. However, double lynches are usually used when you have solid clues on multiple people. I don't think we have enough to go on to successfully lynch two Mafia. At this point, I think we're more likely to lynch two innocents than two Mafia. I would use double lynch later.

Finally, I think some of you have a too narrow focus. Early clues are always really vague and very loosely connected to the Mafia. They could refer to anyone. Just one example:

First result for "magicbullet" on google is the "magic bullet blender," which is kitchen equipment. What role do the refrigerator and the food references play in the first kill on day 1? Why are they necessary for the story?

Another example, citi.zen's quote is "Aut inveniam viam aut faciam." It's Latin and means "I shall either find a way or make one." How would you describe this sentiment? Perseverance. How would you describe the character in the first kill on day two?

Now I don't mean to say magicbullet and citi.zen are Mafia. I just think it's important to keep an open mind and not become too obsessed with any one reference at this point. Like "I just can't ignore how clue X seems to fit perfectly to person Y." There's a good chance the clue has to be interpreted in a totally different way from what you're thinking.


That was a very good post for a mafia I thought. Vague, but also somewhat reasonable (unlike others). What I am curious is: what was your conversation with Jugan about? Did you have him convinced you were innocent?

Clearly no one can convince the great and terrible Jugan of their innocence. He sees through lies as easily as you or I see through a window.

It'd be an interesting variation to play a game where the mafia don't know who the others are.

Yea I'm pretty sure that a mafia playing "without knowing his teamates" would be much more effective.

And yea, waiting before posting DrH's accusation in order to collect more clues and get reactions on differents suspects is what really helped to catch the last mafia members imo.

Yeah i had my suspicions about DrH early on - but I didn't really do anything with them because I thought if I did no one would side with me, and I would just get killed one way or another. Glad it worked out for the rest of the town, things ended up busting wide open - unfortunately after I had died lol.

There was nothing wrong with the balance in this game I think, the mafia just played risky. Look at BC's game played with the same rules.

Great job Incognito!

BC's game had too many inactives, and got some bad breaks.
2 Vigis, and 1 DT died Day 1. Another inactive DT was lynched Night 1 by the Mayor upon winning the election.
So before any real action starts, we already lost all the Vigis and DT's.
2 Medics got mod killed due to inactivity, as well as 4 other greens.
Pretty much it right there.

It was 2 Vigis and a townie on Day 1... I think there's still a DT floating around out there. Who knows if he's active or not. Town could still pull an epic comeback, but it's pretty chancy.

Looking forward to the next game!

I've looked at your "evidence" and you've just made a story and found posts and tried to make those posts fit into your story. Mystlord's post seems geniune - I can understand where he came from, he even explained his reasoning and how there may have been a hole in it. Does this mean he's innocent? Not necessarily, but the posts you are referring to uses semi-rational reasoning, even if it is slightly flawed.

The point is: you're wrong, and stop calling people out on the thread.

Yeah except that

1) citizen is fucking nuts and won't even listen at all.
2) If he is "inactive"... there are better targets. If he is "laying low"... there are better targets. [insert bad excuse to lynch hyperbola here]... there are better targets.

I only really had 2 mafia pegged (DrH and Keit) at the time I was killed. I suspected a couple others that ended up being right - but I certainly wasn't sure. There is also some townies that I had pegged wrong - ghote as an example. I wasn't sure what to think of him and he ended up being a medic lol.

ghote was up on my list at a point too. Then Ng5 asked "why?", so I went back to see when he was first accused, to find it was DrH who pushed for him as a suspect based on the weak link Beatles lyrics - Apple records. That pretty much cleared him in my eyes. He had also told me he was a medic, but at first I did not trust him and did not have him protect anyone important, I was too afraid to give away a blue to the mafia.
