End Game
The Priest trembles. His legs give way under him, and he falls to the wet, damp, leaf-covered earth. Blood mixes with the dew on the leaves, and as he tries to rise, he realizes this will be his resting place. He had failed. He had called for help, and the help had died, and alone, he could not stand against The Coven. In the battle for these villagers' lives-- nay, their very souls-- he had flinched, he had stuttered, he had lost. They would die godless without his ministrations, their sin would go uncleansed. His death would damn them.
The Abominations approach him, drooling, barking, and snapping in their demonic frenzy.Their red eyes glow with an emotion beyond human comprehension, each an embodiment of the sin and heathenism he fought against his whole life. He closes his eyes as he expects them to rip him apart. Instead, they begin to circle him.
Each foul creature begins to bray and bark, filling the air with the sound of hell, like shatter glass, like tearing metal, like roaring furnaces, like sulfur and salt and the taste of blood and the feeling of something harsh and grating. The braying goes on and on, the noises blending together until it seems, for a moment, that The Priest understands it until he feels like he can hear The Words of the Devil in the formless sound.
The Abominations melt together, a ring of muscle and bone around him, and at last he comprehends them. They are Lucifer made flesh, and the voice comes, and it is more terrible and beautiful than he could have ever imagined. It does not threaten or laugh or demean. It has only one word for him, then another, then another, until a sentence forms of the chaos.
"Submit to me, priest."
Suddenly, The Priest's eyes are filled with visions of life, the life he might have. He sees himself submit to Lucifer and damning himself. He rejoins the town, and as a man of learning and letters, starts a school. He teaches children to read and write, and in times his school becomes a library, then a University. As an older man, he brings learning and light into more lives than anyone else. The town-- no, it is a city now-- is prosperous and everyone lives happily. His University even has a school of theology, and many great clergymen and preachers graduate from the seminary. He dies as an old man, surrounded by friends and family, and his honor is remembered forever.
He blinks the vision away. The temptation. The trickery of The Devil. "I will not fall for such trickery! You would never do good, Deceiver! Priests were born to oppose the Devil, not bow to his will! Your plans for evil will never--"
There is a moment, as he speaks, where he might have even fully believed what he said. But, when Lucifer interrupts him, he listens.
"I am not offering you power, or wealth, or damnation. I only offer you what your 'Lord' never would-- I offer you a choice. You can die here, or you can join me, and create a more beautiful world, a world of free will, without predestination. A world where a man's character determines who he is, not the blind meddling of an all-powerful God. I cannot give you success-- you will find that for yourself, one way or another. You are an educated man, and a good man, but I will not repeat myself again. Submit, and be free, or resist, and be destroyed."
The Priest is silent for a moment. He had always had them, the doubts. He joined the clergy for many reasons, but one of them was to be an educated man, and to teach others. Somehow... somehow now things seemed to be different. The Devil wasn't offering him power or sin, just choice. And didn't The Lord allow Man free will? Wait... was he already being influenced? Would he normally have doubts like this, thoughts like this? Was his soul already being corrupted by the darkness?
How can you find if your reasoning is being warped, using only your reasoning?
The Priest tried to squirm away from the writhing flesh, but couldn't move. There was really no escape. The silence in the air was expectant, and he knew that what he did here would decide his fate.
"I.... I will.... I will never submit to you, Lucifer! The... The Lord protect me! Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil. You are with me, Your rod and Your sta--"
The words caught in his throat as he was run through by a dozen bone swords extruded from the Abominations.
The Devil sighed. "A pity. You would have been a most excellent apostate."
Mafia concession
The Priest has been killed! The Coven is victorious! Lucifer claims another village!

He died because we didn't send night actions properly
Breshke or yamato were going to die and the silver bullet would be held
BM wanted batsnacks dead but I said no lol
|
yeah a yamato kill would've made the game a bit different.
I really doubt BM would've lived day 2 no matter what happened, though. You were the only shot at mafia winning.
Also I really do mean everything I said about smurfs day 1. Look at how much meta played into getting LS killed and BM suspected. Both yamato and I agreed that it wasn't like BM to play like this as town. Meta is so useful when used properly.
|
holy shit FF were you voted for witchcraft day 1
|
Also I didn't get powers this game, lots of people thought I might have. Also lol @ scumqt Bill wants bans on me. lawl.
|
ROFL can't believe that actually happened
wtf were town doing
|
Yeh I had voted FF as my #1 lol, I tried to vote people that werent too obvious so they wouldnt get silver bulleted but I should have changed that vote close to EoD when I was pretty sure he was scum, o well.

I agree with your point in principle but disagree with it in practice, because rarely will a town smurf just freely out and most of the time you just waste a lot of the time in the day you could be using to pressure players for things they've actually done since role PMs were handed out. Even when the smurf in question is mafia, it's impossible to get people to policy lynch a smurf and convincing people that ONLY a mafia smurf wouldn't out is just loltastic. All it does is make you look worse for focusing on such an irrelevant point and give the player in question reason to be a dick and OMGUS you.

"as scum this game lightningstrike and i were very coordinated but glowingbear was not wanting to work with us at all and wouldnt agree to not make cases on us D1
hope im never scum with him again."
Dude, BM, it seems your coordination was great since you guys were able to survive all game long, right? The only reason this game lasted only two days is because you are a total douche.
I've made no case day1. Your plan was to lurk? To push the scummiest agenda possible? You ducking wanted me to vote bugs after his activity day1?
It's incredible how bad you can be as either alignment. I can understand LS having no motivation to play, but you are in another level of badness and dickiness
|
it blows my mind that after all he said d1 that people thought he was in their top 3 town reads
I was starting to think he was more town over time because of the sheer number of people yelling at me but on d1 I would never have considered voting him

nah
it was very clear based on the pressure that he was either hiding being a smurf for a bad reason or he was scum.
Like for almost 12 hours we got almost nothing out of him, and it forced him to be more active, but he never provided real reads
I only backed off because of the sheer backlash I got, otherwise I would've kept tunneling him till he died. I got almost no backup at all on that push so I switched to LS
also if I knew his meta I probably would've nailed him 100%. I didn't have the time to look into his past games when he slipped GB but at that point I assumed I was wrong already

Yes I was. And I was about to claim I roleblocked Bill if it wasn't for yamato's track
|
also I think if scum had coordinated d1 they could've potentially gotten me lynched
I had really unpopular opinions for most of the day but LS failed kinda hard

Sorry, "pretty sure" is not what you actually were
The idea that "no mafia would be this bold to defend a scum partner" was very present in thread

You actually made things very easy to me in early day 1 with this, bugs.

why?
I really don't understand why this is such a controversial opinion. I think I did my best to show why it was in town's best interest to either get something out of you, whether it be an identity or reads. We got absolutely nothing and yet people still considered you town
I only backed off because people disagreed with me. Generally when so many people disagree with me I start convincing myself that I am wrong. I did not like what you posted but I gave it a rest because it was destroying the thread. That's why I started calling you bad, because if so many people disagreed with me I thought you must be an idiot townie who I should start ignoring for having bad opinions.
It's good that I picked up on LS otherwise I would've started tunneling some poor townie like stutters
also it was definitely NOT a policy lynch. It was pressure based on being a smurf and I didn't like the direction you took after the pressure
|
Yeah I was not buying that they bussed their silver bullet, makes zero sense. How you read my EoD and Night Phase postings and dont see that I found you suspicious is beyond me.

Would never reveal who I was if I were town. I chose to smurf so people wouldn't have this idea that "he is glowingbear, he is wrong". But then I rolled scum, and being bad would be helpful if I got my identity revealed at some point.
In other words, in the beginning of the game, you were right for the wrong reasons
