My inclination is to vote for Pandain, especially since we know pretty well how he plays pro-town, and thus can scrutinize his posts for suspicious activity.

The day 1 lynch is going to be huge. We need to watch the mayor veeeeeeery closely when he makes it.

If forgetforeveritis isn't just a flavor thing, I would guess that it means people can be misinformed about their roles. I'm not sure how that would work, but in this game, who knows?

My inclination is to go with Pandain. I agree with whoever it was who asked why Fishball has to be mayor as well as the informant from his circle. What can he do as mayor that he can't do already? What crucial information does he gain by being mayor, and why can't he just bring it to the town anyways from a non-leadership position? Same argument for annul -- if the information is that important, it shouldn't be used as a bargaining chip, it should be common knowledge.

I like Pandain because I believe that he is a transparent and honest townie, at least judging by last game. If he's red, it will become very obvious very quickly. I don't like the thought of a mayor being able to hide information from the town, and my gut tells me Pandain would have let slip if he has this capability.

The mayor's actually pretty damn powerful in this game. Being able to outright determine the first lynch is big, as well as getting two votes. I want the motives and reasonings of that person to be as open and obvious as possible.

All right, I'm going to lay down some of my own cards on the table.

I'm seriously considering running for mayor. What I am going to divulge at this point is that I have what I believe is a very powerful role, but I wouldn't feel comfortable revealing it without some level of protection (bodyguards). Because of the nature of the role, I would be able to confirm that I am what I say I am by the second day. The role does not involve the ability to PM others.

If I run for mayor, I will outright roleclaim then and there what I am under the assumption that it would be enough to get me elected.

I want to know if this is a good idea. I realize that it would be asking others to elect me purely because of my role -- I am fairly new at this game and made some horrendous decisions in Haunted Mafia, though if you check my boogeyman visits I had some pretty good hunches about who was red.

Thoughts?

The downside of secrecy is due to the nature of this particular game it's impossible to reveal any information without putting your head on the line. It's not exactly possible to be subtle -- it's all or nothing. I'm not in a position where I can gently guide town to the correct choices.

DrH, you forgot another scenario in which the first step would fail. If you're mafia, you could just ask a buddy, or hell, the Godfather (presuming he exists) to confirm your role. He posts and the townies are none the wiser. The mafia gets inducted into every circle there is and is put in a position of power.

I'm not sold, yet.

All right. I had thought that a rolecheck wouldn't be able to go through on the Mayor. This Mafia may be insane, but I doubt there is more than one shapeshifter. For now, I'm going to throw a vote behind DrH.

I don't want to be over-obvious, but I will say that I have information that has me believe that this is not the case. I can't say more at the moment as I'm already afraid that I've put myself too far in the open.

Glasse, you've been almost completely silent and your platform is largely "make me mayor, lol". "i'm just doing it for fun" is not exactly the sort of thing to get anybody whatsoever to place trust in you.

Since DrH wanted people to get out their suspected sheet:

Youngminii is incredibly strange. He posts with practically no reasoning whatsoever, and doesn't return to defend himself when called on it. Though, to be fair, he hasn't posted anywhere else on TL in the meantime. It's possible he's just gone inactive.

Anybody who votes with no justification whatsoever raises a huge flag. (*cough* kenpachi *cough*)

While I don't have any kind of extensive analysis, NB's posting is... weird. Erratic. Something's not right there.

However, I kinda doubt that orgolove is mafia. It's kinda like BM from last game -- I can't see scum putting themselves so far into the spotlight. The last thing they'd want is to put everyone's attention on a member in a huge spat with a townie mayor. At that point we could just look at who he voted for and raise a treasure trove of mafia.

you get an additional vote every day, but have to use it to vote on one of the mafia


Whoah...

woah, woah, woah, woah woah.

What?

This brings a lot of perspective on the mystery vote...

Consider that he never voted "legitimately", though. I'm not sure what's going on here... it's either a horrid mod screw-up (in which case I think we should be informed) or there's more than one role of that variety, perhaps one that has to vote town.

Hmm, I retract what I just said. The booger-flicking just has me enormously confused -- I guess I'm unsure whether it was a mod or player action.

Here we go again...

I would hugely appreciate medic protection and induction into a PM circle. I have valuable information that I don't feel comfortable revealing in front of everybody. There is also the chance that what I've got is tainted by insanity, but that applies to everybody. I'll know by the end of the night for sure if what I hear can be trusted -- so far I've seen nothing rules-wise that points to the contrary. If it works out, it will be very very beneficial to the town.

There's a lot more going on here than just the plague.

No, that doesn't make sense because a town variety doesn't know who his fellow townies are.


I was thinking more a mafia that has to vote town. Not as huge a role as the Do-Gooder, but there are situations where it would make a difference.

Alright, here's my thoughts for the night thus far.

Bum should visit Dr. H, Dr. H can therefore confirm if he's town. I doubt mafia would have a mason, as the only real benefit of that is you can fake a townie(aka, mafia can already pm). DT's should check me and Fishball, as we are both unconfirmed. Doctor H, if I understand you correctly, you are able to confirm yourself to another player. Once you do so, they should say so in thread the next day.

How does this work?


Sorry didn't come out right. I mean doctor H can then confirm HIMSELF to bum.

PD's should be on Dr. H. We want him to have immunity asap. I think actually not on Bum, since perhaps he should confirm himself to bum, therefore finding out if bum has murrayitis. If he does, then cure both of them the next night, limiting murrayitis.

Thoughts?


Err no and no. DrH doesn't need a medic because he has bodyguards and he didn't need a Plague Doctor because he is immune.


With only one body guard, mafia can double hit him, no? And is he already immune? I thought he can only tell if another person has murrayitis.


Whee, double-post.

I thought a mayor is completely immune as long as a bodyguard is about. The bodyguard doesn't take a bullet for the mayor, but stops it from happening in the first place.

Fishball is in a "circle" of roles that were granted PM capabilities. I'm not really sure how you could've missed that seeing as his platform and almost all debate of him as mayor centered around that.

At the beginning of the day, I am informed of a person who will die during the night. This is why I believe the "+1" of the mafia's 2+1 KP is not murrayitis related. If I had to guess, I would say that it's a randomly chosen townie, as I can't see the mafia having a predetermined hit at the beginning of the day, especially on the first day.

and so why the frick didn't you say so so we can protect him.


1) I have to prove that I'm not bullshitting you. The original target was quickstriker, who was inactive at the time. It wouldn't be a poor sacrifice.

2) It's a double-edged sword. If there's a suicide-bomber in the game and a target is publically revealed it gives an excellent opportunity to take out a medic. That's why I'd like to be part of a PM circle -- if there's a way to get this information risk-free to a medic that's what I want to do.

If I had come out with this information earlier I would just be accused of being a mafia attempting to snipe a medic early in the game.

I would say that the BrownBear "clue" means that he didn't use his ability yesterday. He was probably okay with how the elections were going, and he couldn't make much of a difference anyways. Rigging elections is bad, mmmmkay?

I'm mostly worried about the presence of a suicide bomber in the game, but I suppose I can't do much else seeing as I'm not in a PM circle.

I have no idea, but neither quickstriker nor brownbear were mafia, so evidence points to no.

And there's always the possibility of me being insane and being wrong sometimes, but there's not much we can do about that.

Is this for certain? Do you know how hes going to die? Is it possible for a doctor or a medic or whatever role its called in this game to protect him so he doesn't die?


All I am given is the name of someone who is going to die. I would assume that it's possible for a medic to protect them, as they don't seem to die in any special fashion. I have nothing concrete, though.

Node's role is very easy to fake btw. If he is mafia he needs only to claim "this person will die and I know it" and then kill them that night.

If he is actually the suicide bomber this would be a very smart play.


All I can really say is that I'm telling the truth. :/ That's part of the reason I waited until the last moment to say that I knew BrownBear was going to die -- it doesn't help the mafia. The other part of the reason is it's obviously bad for the mafia to have someone reveal a target every day, and doing so would put my own life in danger. That's why I briefly considered a mayoral run. If you look at my past posts regarding the role it's something I've been setting up for awhile.

I was informed at the beginning of Day 1 that quickstriker was going to die, but he went and got modkilled, at which point I got a PM saying that BrownBear was next in line. I explained why I waited to reveal my knowledge of BrownBear's death earlier in this post.

I believe you probably can be saved. But it could be dangerous if we try, because it could be a suicide bomber set up or something of the sort.


My prophecies say "name will die" (italics are mine). Personally, I think it would be incredibly strange if the person couldn't be saved no matter what, but it is notably different phrasing from "name will be hit".

Some quick clarifications before I get on to the meat of this post:

Yes, I'm told who will be killed at the beginning of the day. When QuickStriker was modkilled, I PMd the mods and asked if I would be given a new prophecy, and was told BrownBear.

I think the reason a new person (BrownBear, in this case) was chosen was because the kill counts as part of the mafia's night KP. Thus, it wouldn't really be "fair" to deny them a kill when they've been told they will have three that night.

I have known this for quite a while, but it just got me thinking:
What do you think the odds are that the mods would change the "oracled" target if that target was modkilled? Idk, it just seems to me that if the player was modkilled, well that's tough shit for the oracle, his power is wasted for the day. Thinking about this, Node actually does seem pretty fishy.

Eye of Suspicion


While I can see why you think it's fishy, it doesn't make sense in the context of how things went down. I'd have no reason whatsoever to say that QuickStriker was the first target I was informed of -- all that really matters is that BrownBear died. And keep in mind I didn't claim that until the last moment last night, so what does it matter if, at some point, QuickStriker was a target unless we're looking for connections?

Frankly, I'm surprised more people haven't brought up suspicions about myself and my role, and it makes me hugely suspect of the "side A vs. side B" that's been going on today. Not that I want to be the center of attention, but yeesh. It worries me that the mafia might consider my role more beneficial than the town does, and thus wouldn't want to see me lynched. Thoughts on why that might be the case below.

I don't think it's a list of people with a common link, but instead just a RNG'd townie at the beginning of the day. I've got no proof, but I can't see there being any other way to determine who is going to die at the very beginning of the game, unless it's role related, and I haven't seen any links in the role descriptions of the dead.

Keep in mind a kill a day is a pretty big deal. I've said this before, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if my role isn't the only one that can interact with the "mystery" kill in some way. Possibilities for interaction include switching it, blocking it, even canceling it. Also, consider the possibilities for the more "standard" roles in taking advantage of mine. A bus driver, for instance, could absolutely wreak havoc with this knowledge. The mafia could put themselves at risk as much as the town by putting this information out there.

Another possibility I've thought of concerning the kill is that the mafia themselves don't know who it is that's going to die. That would be just, well, you know. Still, the potential of this role discreetly giving information to a ghost to deny the mafia a kill every night would be extraordinarily powerful and scary to the mafia.

I'm going to vote Aeres because 1) I don't believe there is a better candidate at the moment and 2) if he doesn't die now, we're going to be having this argument for the rest of the damn game. Not that I think arguments are bad, but we will never get off the subject of Aeres and start looking at other people if we don't make up our minds completely one way or the other right now.

I'm glad to see those I predict to die can be protected.

NB is slated to die tonight.

Yep, it's pretty clear to lynch coagulation. And if he doesn't flip red, we have infinitestory's head on a plate. His role description seems pretty legit considering the game, though.

It would have been nicer to see a post analysis and then look at who crawls out of the woodwork to defend him prior to the claim, though. Still, a dead red is a dead red.

Confirm, short message too. Something like I was poked by DrH.

Also, it seems that Node's ability is not actually foreseeing a person's death but somehow knowing where a mafia hit going to go at the start of the day. Given that there is two deaths and mafia's kill power is 2+1, that "+1" should be the hit that Node is "foreseeing."


Damn you ninja.

Also, yes, I was gonna ask node about this, how exactly are you foreseeing (i remember you are oracle, right? but i forget the exact mechanics), and when exactly are you informed of the person who will be targeted?


I am informed of a person that is going to die at the beginning of every day via mod PM. Because of this, I believe the person is chosen randomly, as I can't see the mafia choosing someone ahead of time, especially on the first day.

Plus, if he gets targeted by mafia his bombs go off, so it's not surprising that he makes a target of himself.

At the very least, Lexpar believed that if he protected a mafia he would die immediately -- there was virtually no way DocH was dying night 1 (as Lexpar was protecting him), so it was very unlikely that the "flip" condition would be met.

I'm worried about who is going to die tonight. There's a lot of potential to damage town quite a bit, and we definitely seem to have a real plan swinging into motion.

5) NB did NOT die. Node, you have some explaining to do.


If I had a direct answer, I would give it to you. I can only guess based on what I read on the day post.

Doctorhelvetica was driving to meet up with several heads of the town, when he suddenly got shoved into a bus. This day, DoctorHelvetica would join the person who brought him life in death.

You are the Mafia Bus Driver! Because you love your bus more than your fellow mafia members, you often go out driving. You have a crazed hobby in which you kidnap two people and put them in the other person's house! Each night, you may PM me the names of two players. Any night actions targetting one will target the other instead.


Judging by this, deconduo's final action was to switch NB and DocH.

I've mentioned before that knowing who is going to die is a double-edged sword -- and that a bus driver role could potentially wreak havoc with it. Surprise, surprise. DocH is a much better pick to die than NB, so I'm honestly not surprised that this is the course of action the mafia took.

NB, you ought to have gotten a PM if you were directly saved by a medic. At least, that's how it worked in Haunted Mafia. Did that happen?

In any case, Amber[LighT] is due to die tonight.

Yeah, I think it would be a fantastically bad idea to lynch Pandain right now. Town's numbers are too damn low. Lynching a townie for information means that we lose another good guy and only get to WIFOM to hell and back whether or not the people who supported him are actually town.

I'm voting for Meapak and hyperbola, because I think they're mafia. It's as simple as that.

Welp, I see no reason to doubt kitaman, and if his claim is false it'll be very easy to lynch him.

Switching from Meapak to Ace.

I'll weigh in on stuff once I sort my thoughts out.

In the meantime,

I have predicted my own death.

Shit, I missed Nemesis' post asking for confirmation earlier. Sorry about that.

I was immunized on Night 3.

And I don't think there's anyway Nemesis could have known that without being the person that immunized me.

If Nemesis was some kind of Mrus spreader that would know if someone was immunized, that's one thing, but how else would he know the actual night I got immunized? It would take either outside communication (implying mafia) or some completely different kind of role.

Yeah, I knew my role had to have its downsides, but I didn't know what to do other than say who was going to die. I pushed to get into a PM circle, but unfortunately it never came to pass. /mourn Fishball.

Fun game. It definitely lived up to its name.
