Oi, can someone give us a vote count?
Unknown2008-09-29 01:44:17
Okay, unofficial vote count:
Simon - Ryleth
Noola - Shiri
Ryleth - Rika, Furien, Noola


Noola, on night 2, who did you role block, if anyone?

The second night, I abstained from blocking anyone cause I'd missed out on the whole day and didn't feel suspicious enough of anyone to want to block them.
Rika2008-09-29 03:03:54
Anyone else going to be voting soon? Simon? See you reading this.

1. Rika (?)
4. Ryleth (Claimed Skiploom; two-shot roleblocker;can be confirmed tonight)
5. Casilu (Claimed Wailord; useless splash)
7. Shiri (Claimed Vanilla Townie;confirmed by Dia trying to copy him)
10. Furien (Claimed vigilante)
11. Arix (Confirmed Swablu; mason with Esano)
16. Simon (Claimed Vanilla Townie)
17. Noola (Claimed Skitty; roleblocker)

On night 2, only Zetsu died. Furien takes the blame for this, citing herself as a vigilante and thus on the town's side. She also claims that she tried to kill me last night and was blocked. Noola takes credit for this block (thank you on that), and says that she didn't block anyone on night 2.

If you presuppose that scum would always try to take someone down at night, you're left with several options:

1. The scum have a % chance of failure. This doesn't seem very plausible to me. Can anyone else comment?
2. Furien is lying and actually scum, just being clever by claiming vigilante when she's actually ... not. The more I think about this, the more I think that she's telling the truth because of the disparate methods used - Furien, if telling the truth, is out to kill these traitors. The scum so far (Doman and Diamondais) are able to "overpower and capture".
3. Something else kept the scum from moving on night 2. Since Noola said she didn't block, I'm thinking this may have been Ryleth. How likely is it that we'd have three role blockers? Has Ryleth mentioned who he's used his power on, if anyone?

So in my head, we have Arix, Noola, and Furien as reasonably being townies. (Arix is absolutely confirmed, Noola and Furien mostly so.)

Shiri is confirmed as having no power, but he may or may not be scum. Ryleth is also somewhat up in the air, but I'm more inclined to trust him because of the above reasons.

That leaves Rika and Casilu, frankly. Casilu's not added a lot of thought lately, and I assume that Rika's got a power, because she said I was suspicious for not having one when no one else had claimed vanilla townie (until Shiri claimed differently), so for now I think my convoluted logic is going to make me do this:

Vote: Casilu

One of the only typical town powers left unclaimed is that of the doctor. Unless Shiri's lying about that to save his skin (and then why speak up to protect me?), I think Rika might have it.

It is highly unlikely we have three roleblockers, just as it is highly unlikely both Noola and Ryleth are townies. Therefore, I think it is safe to say either Noola or Ryleth are scum.

I understand that, really. But what would stop the scum from working on night 2?

I knew there was a hole somewhere, I just couldn't see it!

Unvote
Vote: Ryleth
Rika2008-09-29 03:41:53
Who still isn't voting?

Casilu hasn't voted, I don't think.
Shiri2008-09-29 03:46:57
Last time we had this scenario the full-time roleblocker was townie and the 2* one wasn't. It also adds up nicely with Diamondais' 2* morph.

Unvote, Vote: Ryleth.
Rika2008-09-29 03:47:25
That's a lynch!

As the sun dips below the far-off horizon, the quiet discussion intensifies, and the majority is reached without much argument as each member of the company begins to reveal individual bits of the puzzle. Surrounding Ryleth in the usual ring, you all watch his dignified form with grave solemnity for a moment, before committing to your decision.

QUOTE
You are GARDEVOIR. (Ryleth)



Your love for your trainer is such that it overpowers any compunctions you might have about temporarily hurting your fellow kind, even innocent wildlings. What do they have to lose when your humans possess a wealth of magical healing items and centers? It is your duty to enlighten them and teach them what they are missing, through whatever means necessary.

You can IMPRISON one Pokémon per night in order to prevent them from acting on any of their foolish, uneducated impulses. You may do this three times during the course of the game.

You or one of your fellow mafia may overpower and capture one Pokémon once per night by PMing me with CAPTURE .

You may talk to said fellow mafia REMOVED.

You win when the mafia comprises a majority of the town.


As Shiri lands the last blow, he reels for a moment before stepping back and shaking his head in confusion. A strange unfocused quality leeches from his eyes, and as the fog clears, he shakes his head once more and raises his flop-eared head, vigorously scrubbing at his face with his paws.

"I'm.. all right.. The last two days seem to all have been a dream.." he murmurs faintly in response to the concerned and rather suspicious looks from the rest of the group. He gives his face one last swipe, flicks his ears, then looks up with bright eyes. "We've finally won through, haven't we?"

Murmuring and nodding to each other, you realise that you have eliminated all threats to your continued freedom and survival. A ragged cheer rises from your throats, slowly growing in volume before an enormous SPLASH by Casilu immediately and very wetly quenches all your shouts of joy.

TOWN WINS!

Roles and night choices to follow!

Rika2008-09-29 07:06:53
Told you to lynch Ryleth. tongue.gif

Xavius, when you read this, put me in your mafia game, since you're next on the list. biggrin.gif
Rika2008-09-29 07:07:55
I'm in tooooo.
Rika2008-09-29 07:08:36
Btw since I seem to be one of the few to not claim, I was the doctor. On night one, it was real late for me and I was thinking of typing Shaddus but I think I typed Shiri without thinking. sad.gif
