This presumes the Mafia is in a position to win - if they feel like they're losing, then it's the town's game to lose by following through with the lynch.

Well, then can you offer a logical argument as to why mafia would abstain from night-killing village idiot if village idiot is exposed and town makes the threat I outlined above? I would be glad to hear any thoughtful criticism, as this plan needs to work perfectly to actually get rid of that idiotic nuisance.

As long as the mafia are still in the game, they stand to lose by not night-killing the VI, regardless of whether it's also "the town's game to lose." To win, the mafia must remove both the VI and the town. A 1% chance to win the game is still preferable to simply losing. I know I've seen games where 1 mafia took out several town by himself with some clever lynch voting. :/

We should also try to start figuring out (if we've already done this, sorry, I just jumped in :/) what role Godfather is posing as, to help the DT do his job with the utmost accuracy. My first thought was that Godfather would pose as VI, and after that I can't decide which of the blue roles (barring DT of course) would be the most viable to pose as. Posing as bulletproof or veteran would cause the DT to defend him heavily against lynch kills, but I think the same probably applies for medic, mad hatter, and vigilante. Any other opinions?


Once the VI is truly out in the open, we could argue that Mafia forfeits now or we lynch the the VI. My point is, by lynching the VI we -also- lose, so yes if the mafia is down then they have no reason to follow through with the kill, just as we have no reason to follow through with it. Granted I see no reason why the mafia wouldn't kill the VI just to get rid of him, but I don't agree that we would be in a position to blackmail them.

Basically, if the town's going to be that much of a panda poacher than mafia can just do the same thing. They don't hit the VI. Then what? We doom ourselves? Chances are we change our mind and the mafia are 1 up on us. Basically, the plan revolves entirely around wifom, which should rarely be used in mafia.

Alright, we have two explantions from why they voted Proctat. What about you, Sinquity?

I called him out to reveal himself, he didn't. If he wants to take his identity to the grave then that's his decision.

6. Voting is mandatory. You may NOT abstain.
7. If you miss a vote or fail to post during one day cycle, you will be modkilled.

Not voting:
bumatlarge, kane]deth[, Infundi, Crisis_, Happy.fairytail

Not posted nor voted:
XeliN, JeeJee

Under the current rules we're looking at 7 mod kills. Hope some of those are mafia :\

I don't know how to not apologize without seeming like a good voting target, so I won't do it.

Can you at least tell me what a good post would consist of, preferably by the end of the day?

You're dead unless BrownBear decides to spare you. Which he might, because he's not a polar bear. Polar bears have no mercy.

All is going exactly as I have planned.

the dead don't speak

The dead are currently in Twilight, since the night post hasn't gone up.

Remember this post, DoctorHelvetica? I took the liberty of reading up on your games a while back, and this nice little tidbit came from Incognito's XVI:

Well subs mean Prot's not VI (no reason to go through the hassle otherwise), and this seems to suggest that XeliN has a role. Interesting.

I'm down with the game being over. It doesn't take a genius to figure out someone who's headed to the gallows and has the ability to escape but doesn't is the VI, and I was perfectly content with that possibility.

there, subjunctive. better?

seriously tho, it's gg. Fortunately it's on day 1, so continuing is effectively the same as rehosting.
