A panda would likely leave a lot of blood behind in the case of an attack as an animal isn't particularly precise or careful when it attacks something. A bear could also eat the remains, explaining why bodies were gone. Just a thought.


Pandas don't eat humans? And they eat bamboo for 99% of diet?

Anyway, will be contributing with my thoughts shortly.

Okay let's get this started. First off I like Wiggles clue analysis, I think it really is the best option that we have as far as pinning people from clues go. The link to gaara is pretty vaugue, and while possible, there are more connections to Jackal than Gaara.

Furthormore, on an analysis view point, Jackal sticks out to me very heavily. While he's been posting alot, he hasn't contributed anything besides a very weak clue analysis that really I don't even see how that fits to the missing bodies. Obviously there is a slight connection(flight +teleportion), but its very weak.

Furthormore, he's often just brought up stuff, but not sure at all. I'm not sure how to phrase this, but its like he's just offering it up and then not actually "saying anything." I hope you know what I mean.

I'm not seeing anything but the wall/gravel connection yet. And that's not all that strong.



This isn't a "your sure mafia", rather a FoS. Jackal, you said you found clues to everyone's profile, mind sharing that?

People who seem pro town/should be protected:
Dr. H-third person to vote for jackal(so not too early, but not too late so that he was just joining on the ineevitable). Furthormore warded me away from trying to help jackal, when mafia would've encouraged that.
Mr wiggles-got him lynched. Pretty obvious.

People to watch:
Chaoser-random vote on node, didn't change that. Then says "nice lynch". Hasn't really contributed at all.

Cubed in-inactive, people have to pressure him to post more.

Wait so the fifth picture is a red herring?

Let's just get out a description of each thing:
1.Drop the bomb, exterminate them all. Angry statement, from apocalypse now(the movie). The movie was about a guy who was worshipped as god or something.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apocalypse_Now
2.Lego's, 4 guys over two dead robotic things. Aliens?
3.Snow, no evidence of any person, but tracks. A single tree. Where is this picture from?
4.Magic tricks, hocus pocus kit.
5.Music.

Honestly this is a bit wifom, but I think the music clue is way too obvious. Especially after LSB got a little "called out" for being a bit too obvious on the Carlos the Jackal thing, then having a music sheet be a clue for a musician? That's too obvious.

Furthormore originally I thought the youtube video was a good find, but its fan made and the other pictures don't relate to him really at all. Finally, on a non-clue standpoint, Dr. H is one of the few people I feel is really pro town. He voted Jackal early, warded me against trying to get someone else lynched, and overall has been pretty pro town.

But actually I think the clues might point to someone else: Q, from Startrek.

The first picture, which says "drop the bomb, exterminate them all." Q in several Star trek episodes, notably "Neverending Trial", said that Humanity should be destroyed. Usually he had a request, "Do this or be destroyed" but the basis is the same.

The second picture, with aliens, well that's pretty obvious. An obviously non human entity is killed by other humans. Note the strange creature is even holding what appears to be a laser gun.

As for the picture of tracks, in the snow. I think this might be related to him in that he could do anything. Such as teleport, turn invisible, and so forth. So when you see tracks but no person, that immediately pops into my mind.

The fourth picture is obvious as well. A magic card set, and Q can do things which appear as magic.

The fifth picture I believe is the red herring. It was set to cast suspicion most notably upon Dr. H.

I like that you cast suspicion on me. I'm not going to defend myself because there is nothing that I can gain by defending myself. I am Q I fit all clues no matter what. Day 1 clues I can fit them all. Day 2 I can fit them all.

Like I said previously. Anything but I mean anything can be related to me. Everyone who is pointing their suspicion towards me is a suspect of being mafia. Why you ask?
Simply because if I were to follow your own post I'd have this.

Except it really doesn't. Like last day really didn't fit you at all, besides that they both killed people/were bad. It fit Jackal like a key, and so does this day.

And you could defend yourself every day, even if mafia, by saying "Well since my character can do anything, all clues can point towards me." When really they can't. Like the music clue, for instance.

U posted once after the game started talking about how clues could relate to Raiden.

Hi everyone.

First of all, the Raiden reference. I don't see how it connects to the body disappearances. If you mean the ability to teleport, Raiden has the ability to teleport himself, not other things (at least in the games and movies, but I guess it can be interpreted).

Second of all, I got Kenpachi covered, I watched bleach and I liked the character. A few main traits are:
- loves battle, lives for it, but is fair, would not kill people with arrows or a wall
- uses his sword and that's about it
- is really fast and really really powerful, especially when he removes his eye-patch
- has a skewed view on honor, I can't really explain this, but basically he'll follow "honor" rules, but doesn't respect many things in general.
Also, if he would be killing something, there would be A LOT of blood around.

I did a quick look at the profiles and Gaara seems to be the strongest clue (with the crushing and sand and all), but I didn't have time to carefully analyze all of them yet.

Will be back in the evening for more hunting.



Sort of lethargic here, I'll try to post an analysis on Cubed in shortly. Originally I thought he was town, but looking over his posts his play reminds me of mine in Insane mafia, where even if my logic was pretty bad I would stick to it.

At least my somewhat plan worked, being inactive so they would think I was blue. On the other hand, maybe they shot me cause I was on to something.

However, this is actually a great oppurtunity. If we, for example, make the deciding result in who gives the mail, and from the result BC gives us, that will reveal the alignment of the player we decide. It's a bit confusing, so I'll explain.

For example, if we gave Darmossoh(who I agree is town), AB and Kenpachi CDE, then from there we can find out the alignment of kenpachi based on whether the result we get is accurate or not.

I'm sure there are better ways to do that, such as making sure so we can decide "Well from this we can tell either(just examples) darmossoh and kenpachi are town, or Gmarshal and Node are mafia." or somethign like that.

Dmosh-ABCD
Gmarshall-AD
Chaoser: ED
Shann:AB



I like this plan. If we get a negative result, it means out of a combination of Gmarshall, chaoser, and shann, two are mafia. If it is a positive result, then we know FOR SURE that Kenpachi is mafia, unless either DocH or node are mafia.

I haven't analyzed node/dr. h to be honest, but as of right now I don't believe they are. For the time I think they are town but its time to start analyzing now that I can really be more active.

Here:
Dmosh: A
Chaoser: BC
Gmarshal: DE


Here we have one almost confirmed town, and two suspicious players.

Either we shall get a confirmed lynch, or we will have a guranteed lynch for the next two days.

Let's just play safe me thinks, kk?

That's too dangerous. If any part of the message is corrupt then we get a townie result. So only 1 of those 3 have to be mafia for that to happen. So it doesn't give us guaranteed anything.


Oh woops.

Why not just do something like this?
Dmosh-ABC
Chaoser: D
Node: E.

No matter what we get mafia result, unless I'm missing something.
