Doctors, your main priority is to make sure I live =P
After that, protect Coagulation or Baruder.

Tracker, you should stay hidden and yell if anything important comes up.

Remember, there is a bus driver, so be careful.


LSB, I thought you were the tracker?

Anyway, this should be our plan for the night. LSB, arguably, has the most important role. He can tell us everything that happens at night. All we have to do is make sure he stays alive so that he can share his results with us. The more nights that he lives through, the better we can pin down the mafia.

Barundar, you should check whoever you think is most suspicious. LSB has told us that there is a bus driver in the game. So don't reveal who you're going to check until the morning. Also, since you received a pill from a pharmacist last night you will be safe from a mafia hit.

Coagulation, I don't know if you received a pill or not but don't reveal any information if you did.

Pharmacists, LSB and Coagulation are going to need pills tonight. If you sent Coagulation a pill last night, then send one to LSB tonight. If you are the one who sent Barundar a pill last night, then send one to Coagulation or LSB.

The rest of you guys, DO NOT CLAIM YOUR ROLES. Doing this puts our pharmacists at risk! If you can do so, draw hits. It's the best thing we can do for the Town.

I have no idea why you would want to do that.

very disappointed.


He did what he thought was the best chance to take down a mafia with him. He needed to act like scum so he could get lynched for his "hammer strikes evil" ability to activate. Unfortunately, by getting lynched he ran the risk of reducing our voting power by 2.

I don't know how else he would have been able to be lynched, in all honesty. It's not like you can just announce it to the thread. No mafia will cast the last vote knowing that they're going to die.

Also, I did try to warn everyone that the Hammer did not 'almost hit mafia' like LSB suggested. It was more likely that the Hammer was going to retaliate against the person who casted it.

Why would a pro-town vigilante dump the body in the same place as the other hits? If we believe that at least one of these 3 were killed by the mafia, we should assume that all of them were.

So let's suppose that we have an anti-town Night Vigilante running around. Then only 2 of the 3 victims are accounted for. So what happened to Barundar?

Of all the games I played here, I've never gotten one information role. And I see coagulation getting it 3 times (twice as blue, once as a mafia). Sigh.


So our night vig was also dumb and killed one of our two trackers?


Coagulation did not have an information role. He lied about that. He had the ability to send anonymous PM's to people. Most likely on the first night he sent a PM to Fishball so that Fishball would 'confirm' him as a DT.

Now that I'm thinking about it, Coagulation probably believed Barundar was the first DT and decided to screen for the second DT. He used his ability to PM to confirm that to the town and he successfully drew a hit from the mafia.

I'm going to go on the record and commend Coagulation for that move since it definitely saved the other DT.

I just saw this. This is the only vote cast so far.

~OpZ~: What is your reason? I can't find any justification for this. You are confirmed to be Town, so I know you're not trying to trick us, but we need to be cautious who we put our votes on.

As far as I can tell, he hasn't been active at all this game. However, I am not going to place my vote on him to pressure him at this time. Each time that we have done that, we played into the mafia's plans.

I've just looked through all of Node's posts and although he is definitely not active, he just doesn't seem suspicious enough for me to vote. I guess I'm going to have to wait and hear ~OpZ~'s comments.

Holy...
3 night kills seems like too much for scum, we must have had a vig waste a hit, no? The possibilities as I see it are

1) 2KP + 1 special, 1KP was successfully stopped by town night 1. I suppose this is possible based on the number of pharmacists, often mafia kp will not be less than the number of medics.
2) 1KP + 1 special + 1 vigilante missed. I know the hints haven't exactly specified a vig, but then, the zombie was actually a vet...

I don't think there could be 2 special kp for mafia used the same night, right?


Again, I'm going to say that there cannot be a town-aligned Night Vigilante. In the following post, I point out that a pro-town Vigilante cannot be the answer to how 3 players got eliminated last night.

Okay, so the axe hint is understandable. deconduo can end the day early. According to the OP, the hammer is supposed to refer to the last vote.

The vote that ends the day is called "the hammer".


These two concepts are related but not identical. I don't completely understand the phrase strikes back. It makes me think of retaliation. Maybe the person who almost cast the last vote yesterday was actually mafia and would have been killed by the hammer.


The Hammer did not 'almost hit mafia'. The Hammer is the last vote. There might be some element of a retaliation since sometimes it "strikes back." I think there might be something sinister about casting the Hammer. It's possible that the person who casts the Hammer might face consequences.


Then DrH posted this which confirmed my suspicion.

Well, you've been pretty inactive. Now it seems like you're asking not to be lynched so that you can make it to the Night. If you WERE in fact Red, this would be a pretty good play.

You've basically put us in a really awkward position. We cannot ask you to reveal your clue if it puts us at risk. However, we cannot allow you to just throw out vague hints and give you a free pass through the lynch.

KingJames needs to go back to scum hunting himself, but I'm more interested in Aidnai claiming. He said he would claim day two? Did I miss it too?

Me and Oroglove are confirmed. This should be pretty simple to figure out.


I have been trying to hide myself until I can contribute more. My scum-hunting in other games have led me to early exits via Night Kills so I've deliberately toned down my analysis.

However, I'm at the point where I think we might have to take big risks if we want to salvage some chance at winning the game.

If I reveal my role and what I've found then I'm going to want assurances that I am protected tonight. I can do more for the town if I wait one more Night, but I don't think we really have the luxury of waiting.

The problem is that we can't just lynch based on who's inactive anymore. We need to find 3 mafia and you've just named 3 players. Including yourself, that's 4. I went through your posts and I think I found your hint. Why should we focus our search on someone else and not you?

Idk, do the analysis. I want to see you scumhunt KJ. If you really believe you should focus your search on me, then do it. It'll go nowhere, especially if you've found my clue, but if you're scum, all the better right?


No, I don't think you understand what I mean. Think about it from everyone else's perspective. Based on what I think you are, I can't reveal you. But if I were to just conclude that we shouldn't lynch you and everyone should take my word for it, we'll be pegged as mafia.

You need to defend yourself to the town, and I cannot do it for you.

However, if you promise to help me survive the Night then I'll support you during the Day.

If you can assure me that we will mutually support each other then I will reveal everything I know.

First off, this is my clue:

On December 01 2010 01:21 DoctorHelvetica wrote:
Two men with a third eye, one tells the truth and the other lies


I am the Hypnotist. My ability allows me to hypnotize one player each night. They do not remember that they've been visited and DrH PMs me their alignment at the end of the Night. At first I didn't realize that this clue referred to me. I actually thought this following clue referred to me since I can essentially take over someone and read their mind.

In order to keep 'my' role hidden, I pretended that I didn't know what it meant and implied that it was a Brain Surgeon.

Brain Surgeon?


When ~OpZ~ said that it was actually a Zombie, I took that opportunity to hide myself further:

At this point, we had been discussing that there were 2 DTs in the game and that 1 would be sane and the other insane. When SouthRawrea got lynched and flipped Psychic, I finally realized that we were all wrong about that first clue indicating the presence of 2 Detectives and that SouthRawrea and I were the two players with a third eye. The only question left to answer was, "which of SouthRawrea and I was insane?" Since SouthRawrea had been lynched I knew that I had to keep myself hidden because I believed myself to be the last remaining information role.

Then, Barundar claimed DT.

From the role list, the closest thing we have to a Doctor/Medic is a Pharmacist/Nerfed Medic. We don't even know if you can be protected the first night.

Explain why you think you are worth protecting and what you have done that would make you a target tonight?

Also I claim detective (of a sort).


Immediately after that, Coagulation made his fake claim to the second DT.

I didn't understand it right away but I thought that they were trying to screen for what they thought were 2 DTs.

Instead of screaming "LYNCH ALL LIARS", I decided to help them and use the opportunity to stay hidden. So I pretended to organize the town around them so that they would draw hits for me:

Okay, this is a good ability for us to build our scum-hunt around. I'm voicing my support for the plan whereby Barundar checks someone of his choice, (keep your target a secret for now Barundar) and announces his findings in the morning. Of course our conversation is public so mafia will try their best to ruin it. What we need is for a Pharmacist to prescribe some medicine to Barundar or whatever it is that you do to keep him safe until the morning.

Coagulation is our other DT. We know that one of our DTs tells the truth, the other one lies. Since Coagulation's results are PM'd out randomly, I suspect that he is the one who will have trustworthy results. I'd like for him to be safe as well.

There is no real way of ensuring this or coordinating the actions of the Pharmacists though without them claiming. Obviously, Pharmacists should not claim until they absolutely have to.

Everyone else, as enlightening as it is, stop with the role-claiming unless you are forced to do so or have a very good reason. Each time someone claims, we have one less place to hide our Pharmacists.


During Night 1, I chose to check RebirthOfLeGenD. His voice was very strong in the game and I wanted to know for sure if he was Town or mafia. He had already put together a list of possible suspects and was campaigning very hard. If he turned out to be mafia, then he was worth claiming for just to silence him. So I decided for the first night I would check RebirthOfLeGenD.

Before the Night phase began, RebirthOfLeGenD was replaced by ~OpZ~. Instantly ~OpZ~ went on the attack and derided my attempts to decipher DrH's hints.

Would a pro-town player be so against gaining information about possible mafia abilities? I sent in my request to hypnotize ~OpZ~. In the morning DrH PMd me that when ~OpZ~ was hypnotized, he revealed that he was Red. Since I didn't know my sanity I had to watch ~OpZ~ very carefully to see what he would do.

The only problem was, ~OpZ~ never came back to the thread. I tried to bait him out:

Basically, I had nothing to determine my sanity with. Then ~OpZ~ was revealed to be the Innocent Child.

OpZ cried as the town yelled and argued. Everyones hearts were warmed by the tears of OpZ the Innocent Child and their minds were put at ease knowing at least one person was too innocent to be corrupted by a life of crime.

OpZ has now been mod confirmed as a town aligned player. There is zero possibility of deception or misleading in this case.


From this I knew that I was insane. I worked through my list of suspects and how many players I could link together and decided that annul was too suspicious to be town. He deliberately started and continued a fight that would help mafia stay hidden. Any information that he offered in terms of roles were recycled ideas that had already been mentioned.

Also, in all of his posts, he never once provides an analysis on a suspect. Instead, he quoted other people's posts and used that as justification for voting. He tried to keep the town focused on Fishball and orgolove. His two most likely suspects both had been revealed to be Town.

so explain to me why we have gotten off of fishball?

look at the post i made when i voted him, when i quoted his post and showed the two blatant contradictory ideas. then look at orgolove. he either 1. is bussing fishball or 2. someone actually used that power and wants to save fishball, and the only logical use of this is a mafia use

vote fishball, then vote orgolove tomorrow


My conclusion: annul was mafia.

All I needed to do now was to keep attention focused on Barundar and Coagulation so I could keep hypnotizing people. I 'organized' the town so that Barundar and Coagulation could draw hits for me again.

Anyway, this should be our plan for the night. LSB, arguably, has the most important role. He can tell us everything that happens at night. All we have to do is make sure he stays alive so that he can share his results with us. The more nights that he lives through, the better we can pin down the mafia.

Barundar, you should check whoever you think is most suspicious. LSB has told us that there is a bus driver in the game. So don't reveal who you're going to check until the morning. Also, since you received a pill from a pharmacist last night you will be safe from a mafia hit.

Coagulation, I don't know if you received a pill or not but don't reveal any information if you did.

Pharmacists, LSB and Coagulation are going to need pills tonight. If you sent Coagulation a pill last night, then send one to LSB tonight. If you are the one who sent Barundar a pill last night, then send one to Coagulation or LSB.

The rest of you guys, DO NOT CLAIM YOUR ROLES. Doing this puts our pharmacists at risk! If you can do so, draw hits. It's the best thing we can do for the Town.


In the morning DrH sent me a PM saying that, in his delirium annul revealed that he is Green.

annul started the day by suggesting the extra Night hits were due to a town-aligned Night Vigilante. I knew he was lying to spread confusion so I tried my best to keep the town calm.

No, I disagree with this statement. I don't think that there is a Night Vigilante; at least not a Town-aligned one.

Day 3

3 bodies were found floating in a pool in the morning.


Why would a pro-town vigilante dump the body in the same place as the other hits? If we believe that at least one of these 3 were killed by the mafia, we should assume that all of them were.

well we dont know who the night vig hit and who the mafia hit

so maybe the mafia hit the tracker and the night vig took out coag or something

though maybe the mafia controls the night vig


So let's suppose that we have an anti-town Night Vigilante running around. Then only 2 of the 3 victims are accounted for. So what happened to Barundar?


So now, I'm convinced based on my checks that annul is Mafia. I was not going to claim so quickly because of the apparent increase in the number of mafia KPs and because I was hoping to draw out his fellow mafia. Also, by revealing myself, I now need to request protection tonight.

TOWN: annul is Red. Lynch him so we can take back control of the town!

Oh, he's going to flip Red, alright. All we need to do now is to form a list of other likely mafia based on his posts.

I couldn't be vocal because of my role. If I pushed too hard I probably would have been killed by now. My two bodyguards, Barundar and Coagulation, are now dead so again, to the pharamacists, I'm going to need protection tonight if we're going to have any chance of pulling out a win.

next, KJ tries to use our argument as a vehicle to suspect i am mafia? he is just as guilty - if not more so - of any beef we have. he started the garbage up in sengoku and he continues the garbage here. so he uses this as a predicate to attack me?

he is not the "insane detective". i am. and i know that node is a green. thats it, so why would i come out? waste of a DT really. but now the town wants to attack me and i need to save my ass. the ghrur/KJ connection is pretty obvious.

i have one check remaining, then i run out of DT power. keep me alive and tonight i will return a verdict on ghrur. KJ is very good at writing a whole bunch of convincing shit while being utterly incorrect and misleading - i know this for a 100% fact now. i was on his ass forever and now hes taking an opportunity to lynch me because i hate him. im not the mafia - he is. and so is ghrur, probably.

in the meanwhile because KJ is an obvious liar,

Right, so you're actually the insane detective. What's your role? What have you done with it? In 2 nights have you only checked Node? That seems like a waste of your ability.

You're also asking for a reprieve from the lynch vote after I've already denounced you as being mafia? Laughable attempt at delaying the inevitable.

I won't lynch you because you hate me. I smile because you hate me. =) I'll lynch you because you're mafia.

Anyway, even if you were going to counter that I'm framing you, where's your analysis? You can't just point fingers and not show proof.

i said i only had that information, not that that was all i have checked. think about it, two nights to check, one target, hmmmm maybe one of my checks is dead?

LSB was my other check.


Let's suppose that this is true. That means you checked both Node and LSB. There were other people who were probably better choices to be checked, including Barundar, Coagulation and ~OpZ~. What reason did you have to check these two and in what order did you check them in?

my "proof" is who do you believe more? there are two competing claims. you claimed insane DT and called me out. i am the true insane DT. i really do not know why you did this, because when i do flip town, you die tomorrow. its a weird sacrifice that i do not understand. but nevertheless, it is true; i am town, and if he is saying otherwise, he must be mafia.


Asking people "who do you believe more" does not qualify as proof.

What is your ability and how does it work?

I'm just going to ignore your baseless accusations. You're still attempting to distract the town by drawing me into pointless fights.

yes, when i run out of juice i can do limited things. obviously i would say what they were if i didnt think it was a dumb idea to do so. presuming i do live i dont want people knowing what it is, because then they can possibly prevent it from happening.


That's just silly. No such role was hinted at by DrH. Which clue do you think corresponds to you?

furthermore, "the free pass to kill who i want" is fallacious. IF i were mafia (which i am not), mafia is going to be able to kill tonight all the same... so people are gonna die tonight no matter what, why would killing me (or, in the actual case, any mafia to begin with) stop that from happening?


Also, we don't know how many KP the mafia has. It is very possible that by lynching you we can reduce the number of KP. It is in town's best interest to lynch you today.
