Newbie 1170: DarthYoshi's Medieval Mafia! (Fin--Who won?!)

[DarthYoshi]

Painkiller has failed to pick up his prod. Initiatng a search for a replacement.

The current vote count on the previous page remains unchanged as of this post.

[Fakinha]

Oh. I know the logic is flawed. I was baiting you and hoping you would say a pr role thus guaranteeing you as scum.

Worst pressure post I've ever read. He just claimed town, didn't give us a role... why did you post that? Just continue the pressure. Sigh...
Day 17 I'm gonna ISO everyone and find the scums. Tomorrow I'll go to an anime event, so no maf for me.

[sorgster]

I'm going to hammer duckhunter. I hope this is scum

Unvote
Vote duckhunter

[duckhunter4242]

OMGUS

[DeasVail]

I'm going to hammer duckhunter. I hope this is scum

Unvote
Vote duckhunter

I would have liked to know what the replacement thought about duckhunter I guess all we can do now is wait.

[DaLetterEl]

Because hammering when the IC and the replacement for pain (and pain i guess) have literally said nothing is a good idea.

Right.

Are we still allowed to discuss stuff between the hammer and when the mod notices it?

[sorgster]

We should be. Was like that in my first newbie game.

[DaLetterEl]

oop, just reread the rules. you're right, we can.

why did you hammer now?

[sorgster]

No one else was going to get hammered and everyone started getting much quieter.

[DarthYoshi]

Day One, Vote Count the Seventh

A lynch has been reached.

duckhunter4242 (5): DaLetterEl, LyingBrian, kirbyoshi, DeasVail, Sorgster

Not Voting (4): Painkiller, Shinki, Fakinha, duckhunter4242

gamer replaces Painkiller.

Stay tuned for the death scene and duckhunter's flip.

As ever, any questions or concerns, please let me know.

[DarthYoshi]

As the villagers and merchants and guildsmen gathered to the town square to discuss the day's lynch target (sorry, ye olde lynche targete...this is medieval mafia after all), discussion fell to several characters as the debate raged back and forth in a debate in bastardized Middle English that would have made Chaucer weep.

Eventually, though, there was only one candidate for the lynch--duckhunter--and with the entire minority of the town abstaining from the vote, achieving the majority needed to convict him was a fairly simple affair. What to do with him after, though, was the subject of much debate. To the stockades with him? Or the gallows? Should he be disemboweled while howling "FREEEEEEEEEEEEEDOMMMMMMM?" because if he does, Mel Gibson might make an Oscar-winning and thoroughly inaccurate historical epic about him many centuries later?

Well...you all decide that the quality of the writing in this game is not up to the standards of Oscar-winning Hollywood, so instead of disembowelment, you elect instead to burn him at the stake! That'll show the Mafia...er, Mafiae.

And so duckhunter died. Thrown upon the bier with nary a vehement defense or derailing of his bandwagon, his body burst into flames almost immediately, and he was no more.

But his death would remain a source of regret for the town just the same. You see, while in death duckhunter may have been red hot, but in life, he was merely vanilla.

Er, vanillae.

Duckhunter4242,

Vanilla Townsperson,

was burned at the stake on Day One.

It is now Night One. Players with access to QTs may now use them. Any and all night actions are due to me by 9:00 pm Pacific Daylight Time on Tuesday, October 18.

[DarthYoshi]

As night fell upon your village and the gate was drawn to the inner streets of the town, the remaining villagers all went to sleep knowing, deep down in their bones, that a mere gate and walls could not protect them from the evil Mafia guild. Er, Mafiae guilde. One of these days I shall get it right, or at the very least run this particular joke into the grounde.

Nary a sound was heard that night from a single villager, and awakening to the rooster's crow, you hoped that this silence might have meant a good thing...but as you stroll from the church, around the corner to the fletcher's on your way to the town square once more, you notice that a sheaf of arrows has gone missing from the fletcher's shop...

...and that those arrows have indeed found a target. Upon reaching the dungeons overlooking the town square, you see the body of sorgster, slumped over as arrows point out from him in every direction. But...why put his body in the medieval dungeons?

As it happens, that was poor sorgster's trade in this fair village...as you take his body away for burial, you notice an insignia upon his tunic--an insignia that represented the local chapter of the European Guild of Dungeonkeepers. What you today might call a...Jailkeeper.

Sorgster's dungeon bars may have tried to keep the village streets safe, but they still left just enough room for an arrow.

Sorgster,

Town-Aligned Jailkeeper,

was shot on Night One.

It is now Day Two. With 7 alive, it takes 4 to lynch and 4 to no-lynch. The deadline is currently set for 8:00 pm Pacific Standard Time, November 8.

[DaLetterEl]

VOTE: Deasvail

[Kirbyoshi]

Doing one (an ISO) on shinki afterwards

but those were my thoughts on duckhunter. Duckhunter do you want to claim your role? Scum will probably claim townie

Did a quick ISO of sorgster and found this. Could it be that Shinki was afraid of what sorgster would find?

VOTE: Shinki

[Shinki]

That's why you killed him tonight?

VOTE: Kirbyoshi

[Shinki]

last night*

[DeasVail]

ok, I don't really understand the sorgster night-kill, since he seemed quite suspicious to me after yesterday and I don't think anyone could have suspected him of being jailkeeper. Kirby and Shinki have shared their thoughts, but does anyone else have any ideas?

Anyway, I'm very unsure about who is scum now that duckhunter and sorgster have been revealed town, but if I were to name two it would be Fakinha and Kirbyoshi.

With Fakinha, yesterday he seemed to not contribute much to discussion, but still urged everyone to discuss. (perhaps scum making the effort to look town without saying much?)
His attack on shinki for not providing town reads and then quick unvote after I questioned it was a bit strange, but I'm not sure if it's scummy.
The main thing for me though was him saying there was a 50/50 chance of duckhunter being scum as an excuse not to vote, while not seeming to make much effort to find better suspects.
So, Fakinha, what are your thoughts on everyone?

With kirbyoshi, he replaced cjdrum, who was one of the people suspecting duckhunter and when kirby came in to the game, he also suspected duckhunter and he just didn't seem to be careful at all about the possiblity of duckhunter being town. He just said that duck was a "good lynch candidate" and questioned the players not voting for him.
I also found it suspicious how he wanted everyone's suspects in the case of duckhunter's role reveal. The main benefit of this seemed to me to be for mafia deciding who to kill at night and I didn't get a response when I commented on it. The Shinki vote seems a bit weak to me as well.
kirbyoshi: What benefit for the town would everyone's naming of suspects have provided and how seriously do you suspect Shinki?

Finally, DLE, is your vote on me based on my hesitation in taking duckhunter to L-1? If there's anything else, please bring it up.

Just thinking about it now, I'm thinking Kirbyoshi seems to me more likely to be scum than anyone else, so:

VOTE KIRBYOSHI

I'd also really like to hear gamer's thoughts.

[Kirbyoshi]

Wow. Textbook OMGUS. Really Shinki? How about an actual defense?

[Shinki]

No, it isn't OMGUS.
You, as the scum you are, probably thought "Oh. Sorgster were suspicious of Shinki, let's kill him tonight so tomorrow we can actually blame Shinki and mislynch her, perfect plan!"
That's the reason behind his unexpected death?

[Kirbyoshi]

That argument is only even plausible if you already suspect me. If you truly think I'm scum, what else have I done that's scummy? Don't just sheep DV's case, because none of what he is accusing me of is scummy in the least.

[Fakinha]

Hmm... Kirby, your reason for vote on Shinki is way too weak.
And Shinki, IGMEOY. You didn't play like town on the first day.

[DeasVail]

kirbyoshi, please explain your actions and explain how they were not scummy. The fact that you are not answering my questions and dismissing my suspicion of you without explanation is making more suspicious.

And fakinha, what you have just posted is an example of why I suspect you. You post, but you don't usually say anything new or helpful for us.

[Fakinha]

I don't have anything usefull nor helpfull right now ):
I just go posting and posting and things happens. But I'm with Persona 4 on my PS2, so there's no way I can concentrate on anything

[DeasVail]

What I meant was that if you're town, you are more likely to have thoughts about who might be scum and reasons why.

[Fakinha]

Shinki, what do you think about duck flipping town?

@Deas
I suspect Shinki. Because I played a lot with her and I don't see a town vibe from her game on day 1. However, that can be because she was very absent on this game. In any case, I'll see how the day develops.
Aside Shinki's meta... nothing, really. There are many little things to considerate but no great opinion formed, yet.
