Mini #97 - The Aftermath - Game OVER

[massive]

Current let's-rejoice-in-Xavier's-NCAA-victory-last-night vote count:

indentureddjinn: 5 (MeMe, Mike Amok, Green Crayons, bigbenwd, Rick)
MeMe: 1 (Mike Amok)
Lord Sewerrat: 1 (Jolle)
Jolle: 1 (Phoebus)

(By way of information, Xavier is my alma mater and currently getting ready to play Duke on Sunday for the NCAA Final Four - so if you lynch someone Sunday night, be prepared to wait until Monday for any information, as I will be quite toasty Sunday night. )

[Jolle]

Unvote: Sewerrat, vote: Indenturedjinn

There's just to much evidence against him.

[massive]

Final day one vote count:

indentureddjinn: 6 (MeMe, Mike Amok, Green Crayons, bigbenwd, Rick, Jolle)
Jolle: 1 (Phoebus)

After some small time of debate, attention turns to the last to arrive at the lynching scene, indentureddjinn.

"You, last to arrive! Who are you?"

"Don't you recognize me? I'm the cab driver, Winchester Late! I was busy picking up MeMe and had to wash the car before I came over to pursue mob justice!"

"That can't be! MeMe's house was on fire, and the fire trucks were there! Surely they would have remembered seeing you!"

Caught in his short-sighted lie, the owner of the Late Taxi Company had no recourse but to throw himself before the mercy of the crowds - which, unfortunately, was quite small in the face of their bloodlust. The crowd attacked indentureddjinn, stringing him up for the other criminals to see.

indentureddjinn, Winchester Late of the Late Taxi Company, has been lynched.

It is now Night Two. Please turn all night choices in by ... let's say no later than Tuesday, March 30th.

Saccovanzetti Ledger-Journal

Prizewinning Chemist Found Slain

Internationally-known chemist Doctor Gene Spoolicer, or

MeMe

, was found this morning lying dead in a back alley in downtown Saccovanzetti. The initial autopsy revealed a single bullet wound through the temple of the doctor's advanced brain. Police are not sure what Doctor Spoolicer was doing in the downtown area overnight, although the doctor was found with what appeared to be some sort of chemical delivery system.

Another House in Flames

Yet another house of Saccovanzetti erupted into flames overnight. Fire officials continue to search for the arsonist.

It is now Day Two. With nine alive, it takes five votes to make dead.

[MeMe]

[bigbenwd]

...I'm back now, I'm reading through the thread as of now, so what are thoughts about meme? what is this chemical delivery system? and also, what was the taxi man able to do?

[bigbenwd]

I think meme was not a doctor, but she was an inventor, at least thats what it looks like from the deathscene, a chemist it said, and she had that thing, probably an invention she never got to use.

[Mike Amok]

There's no reason to think indentureddjinn's role wasn't just as he said, basically a doctor. No idea about MeMe's role. Probably not a typical doc role. Something very interesting, I'm sure.

[bigbenwd]

I'm going to

Vote: Jolle

because he was really hounding a lynch on sewer rat yesterday, and he was even suggesting a quick lynch would be good, this seems a bit scummy to me, I dunno. and he also says at one point that he does say hes going to hold off his vote on IDcause four was enough, but he had also said he wanted a fast day. and then he cast the final vote on ID as well. (I may have to rephrase that post, if you want me to, i will. its like 1 AM here)

[Jolle]

BigBen:: I said 4 votes was enough in post 112. I put the lynching vote on him in post 151. A lot things changed in the posts between.

I still suspect Lord Sewerrat. I think he is the arsonist. Because if he were the arsonist, whom would he attack? I guess someone who suspects him, since if he kills that person, his chances of surviving the day become better. I was the one who suspected LS most. This night I received a PM saying I was attacked by the arsonist. Because the most likely person to attack me if he were the arsonist is Lord Sewerrat,

Vote: Lord Sewerrat

.

BTW, ben, who did you investigate this night?

[bigbenwd]

we dont know if the arsonist is evil, I'm beginning to think that he is a pro town role blocker, because he hasnt killed yet.

[Lord Sewerrat]

I am not the arsonist.

I am a role wich I will not tell, because that would not do the town any good.

I also beleaf the taxidriver is some kind of doc.

[Rick]

Ben, That’s an interesting theory on the arsonist being a role blocker. Two strikes and no deaths; you do have a point. Either that or the fire crews are extremely lucky.

MeMe said:

I received a PM saying that I was engulfed in smoke, but luckily

the fire engines came to the rescue

and I

stayed outside all night watching

to make sure my home didn't burn to the ground.

MeMe's statement also says she stayed outside all night watching which gives credence to the blocking theory.

Any mention of the fire crews with you last night Jolle? It’s all pretty confusing.

[Jolle]

My PM said I that my house was on fire, so I called 911 and fled from my house. That's all. I guess it means the same as MeMe's PM, only told a different way.

[Lord Sewerrat]

I agree on the roleblock theory

[Green Crayons]

Then that would clear Jolle, since a murder happened last night.

[Mike Amok]

Unless another Mafioso made the kill.

[Jolle]

I also think the theorie of the arsonist being a roleblocker is true. That makes my reason to vote for LS unvalid, so

Unvote: LS

. I do still suspect him, but not enough anymore to warrant a vote.

[Mr_Gnome_It_All]

Well, I'll say that an arson roleblocker is an interesting concept. And it seems likely, considering what's been happening at night.

No suspicions as of yet.

[Green Crayons]

It's at this point where i feel exceptionally insecure about my abilities, because all i have to fall back on is random voting; and by day two, that shouldn't really be an option.

Does anyone have any thoughts whatsoever, perhaps in regards to any amount of suspicion.

[Jolle]

I'm also quite stuck, but perhaps BigBen can help us if he is willing to tell who he investigated. Other than that, I'm completely out of ideas.

[Mike Amok]

Vote: Jolle

. Why would you want Ben to do that? It's like slapping a big "CONFIRMED INNOCENT! KILL ME NOW!" sign on that person's back. Ben told us he and his partner investigated MeMe night 1. She subsequently died night 2. Bad idea.

[Phoebus]

I'll add a third

vote:Jolle

to help him talk to us,
The fire at his house confirms that he is not the arsonist but does not clear him of being scum. I'd hazard to conjecture that our friendly neighbourhood arsonist marked him to be scum as well and targetted him in an effort to increase his chances of victory.

While the two unsuccessful fires might be all cushy to suggest a roleblocker type, I am slightly sceptical for the fact that the firebug has been repeatedly mentioned in the news. How often is a role block mentioned in the news? And also, usually, it is just one element...a combi of arson + fire engines is slightly iffy for me. I'd be more comfortable thinking that there's someone either highly efficient or highly lucky as a doc out there for us.

[Green Crayons]

a combi of arson + fire engines is slightly iffy for me

Without the fire engines, the fire would supposedly burn down the houses, which may or may not affect other people's roles. At least, that's what i have surmised.

[Jolle]

I guess it's time to claim then. I'm Carl Willingham, a vigilante with a built-in restriction: if I kill someone who is pro-town , it will have very bad consequences for me.

a combi of arson + fire engines is slightly iffy for me.

Fire crews are mentioned only at the beginning of day 1. I think they were added just for flavor.
