    As suspicious as I've found Tremula, I'm really not sold on this line of reasoning. I think we're splitting hairs.

    If anything I'd love to hear @Azureus give his account of last night, because I'm a bit mystified. This is the first time my roleblock has returned any kind of flavor text, which means something interfered. I want to know what.

    I got a vision of Ssaliss last night

    It pretty much confirms he's the jailer.

  • Thank you. Now could we move on towards finding the scum? Currently, my list of suspicious people are:

    Tremula, because his reports don't measure up.

    Azureus, because he's got a mongoose follower, and mongeese are closely related to ermines.

    I'm still of two minds about Luce. While his power can definitely be seen as scum-friendly, he did use it to protect Celina during day two (I think?), when he could've just as easily sat by and watch her die. Then again, that could very possibly be a play just to get us to trust him.

    You know what I'm utterly confused about though? How the heck is Siam still alive?

    I'm unsure why they didn't target Siam either. I think Celina being targeted might be due to the power she exerted last day with essentially getting everyone on a lynch train. Maybe they didn't trust her influence?

    Though Ayisdra wound up being town after all. Iunno.

    Confirms Ssaliss is a jailer, or confirms he's town and jailer?
    Everiine said: The reason population is low isn't because there are too many orgs. It's because so many facets of the game are outright broken and protected by those who benefit from it being that way. An overabundance of gimmicks (including game-breaking ones), artifacts that destroy any concept of balance, blatant pay-to-win features, and an obsession with convenience that makes few things actually worthwhile all contribute to the game's sad decline.

    Definitively town? No, but get the feeling he's certainly town.

    Comments about being safe with him etc. Enough to think we need to go in another direction

    What amuses me is that we've had plenty of comments since night, and not a single one has mentioned the flavor text of Ayisdra's role, and how we are actually triplets. Not only that, but said kitsune triplet hasn't even stepped forth.

    I figure whoever it is, he's scum. He hasn't mentioned his being a kitsune, and he or she keeps talking about random inane crap without bringing up an obvious, in your face clue.

    I thought y'all mentioned the triplet before and said he wasn't in the game?

    BUT IF HE IS?? OOOOH. :O

    Who hasn't claimed an animal/human role yet?

    We don't know if he's in the game or not, but why would we be triplets if he isn't?

    I think the triplet may be Ermine. But the triplet is likely a mafia member yeah. And now I'd like to hear what everyone did last night. Also thank goodness I sent the vision to someone else besides @Celina(LET ME PLAY IN YOUR DRAG QUEEN MAFIA AFTER WE FINISH KIRA'S GAME).

    Will backread the first few pages. I think back in Day 1/2, Azureus vouched for someone?

    Psst. @Synkarin, can you confirm if Ssaliss was explicitly stated to be the oldest chimaera in the group?

    Still backreading. If someone gets to find Azureus roleclaim before, please quote it. Thanks!

    Azureus said:
    VOTE: Tarkenton

    We've been moving as though we were already reasonably convinced of Celina and Ssaliss's interactions, Shaddus's suspicions of Ssaliss aside. This "defense" doesn't really contribute anything new and really only attempts to confirm our actions so far. While it does seem like an attempt to reassure and calm us down, as an argument for Tarkenton's own innocence I find it thoroughly unconvincing.

    And a bit unbelievable too. Tarkenton couldn't have investigated Celina last night, because I used my power to make Celina immune to others' night powers. (Note her lack of a vision; I'd hoped the vision giver would move on to a different recipient, as suggested during the day, but even if they didn't I felt Celina was becoming a high enough profile target that the immunity would safely buy us another day whatever else happened. It wasn't without risk, but that's my evidence to back up my claim.)
    This is what I've found just far: page 28. @Azureus, who did you target last night? I'm not a mafia expert - can you please name your role? Thanks!

    Also, who got visited by the mongoose last night?

    You think Ermine might be a kitsune?

    The third kitsune is a he. Ermine's a she. I would also like it on the record that while I'm ambivalent about German, I sincerely regret teaching her to speak and read Russian.

    I was going to make a point about Tremula revealing Celina's role's name, but after some digging, Celina requested that name specifically. And even made the parallel to Lucifer, who was an angel. I see what you did there, @Kiradawea.

    Right now I'm not trusting @Azureus' claim as much, both because of the mongoose imagery, and because everyone's been calling the role a protector, but it's been acting like Escort/Consort.
  • SiamSiam Whispered Voice
    I think so, yeah.

    @Siam, I already mentioned that my blocking of @Azureus was blocked by being led on a merry chase by a jeweled mongoose sooooo...

  • SiamSiam Whispered Voice

    Ok. Thanks @Sylandra. I'm still at work so forgive me for missing that part.

    Essentially, last night you tried to block Azureus but your attempt got foiled(jeweled mongoose).

    I've just dug up this post:
    Celina said:
    Oh hi. 

    I tracked Shaddus. If his sibling thing is true, I know who that is. However, they do meet at night, which is inherently scummy. I know for a fact Shaddus met with person who I won't name at this time last night, but I do not know anything more than that. 

    I did not get a vision last night.

    I was, however, visited by a bedazzled mongoose. No idea what its purpose or meaning was, it just ran off. So there's that. 


    and this:
    Azureus said:
    I used it on Luce the night before.

    I'm also even more confident in the vote against Tarkenton now, because there's still no defense being given, no offering of evidence to claim I'm lying or that my power otherwise failed. Just acceptance.
    both of which were ambients that Luce and Celina got after being targetted by Azureus. From the sound of it, your failed night action seems to be something reactive as opposed to something that was intentionally targetted at you. When Celina was targetted by Azureus, she was still able to complete her night action(tracking Shaddus). Color me confused.

  • SylandraSylandra Join Queue for Mafia Games The Last Mafia Game
    Yeah, I agree. I am pretty sure whatever happened is something that reacted to me trying to block Azureus, rather than him aiming his mongoose at me directly.

    But that's not in line with how he's explained his power, so I'm mighty suspicious.

    I'll just Vote Azureus to put a bit more pressure on the situation. Mongoose got some 'splainin' to do.

    That is also why I want to know who Azureus targetted last night! If anyone has been visited by a mongoose, please speak up. Azureus, you may also want to tell us who you targetted last night. :)

    Ssaliss said:
    There's also the possibility that Azureus saw that Tarkenton was likely to be exposed, and thus dropkicked one of his own just to make himself more town'y. Also:
    Azureus said:

    With so many fingers pointing at me, I might not be in the game long enough to be worth saving any cards. So an offer I can make is, if we really need someone's power to go off tonight, I can help with that, even if it leads to a sort of chain-blocking domino effect. But we'd have to time it right, especially because the list of targets we want to protect might as well form a kind of hit-list on the remaining nights.

    To me, the two quote don't really match up.
    I'm assuming (and in fairness, might be incorrect in my assumption) that the immunity I provide also protects from whatever the scum would do as an attack, whether that's killing or converting.

  • Er, it's obvious isn't it? Azureus targeted themselves last night. Confirming because my power was blocked by it too when I tried to track them.
  • SiamSiam Whispered Voice
    That's what I had in mind, too, but confirmation from Azureus himself would've been nice(prior to you confirming him) ;)

  • SynkarinSynkarin Nothing to see here
    Ayisdra stated that the third brother wasn't actually down here

    Why would Shaddus say he was? and if he was, wouldn't Shaddus know who he is?

    Also, Saran, Luce and Siam never actually stated what race they were (or I missed it when looking back). I know Saran was paranoid about powers but I don't think that's an issue

    Want to open up?

  • Meh, I'm actually thinking it might be worth lynching Azureus anyway.

    Can someone track down the mongoose claims? I can't right now but something might not match up from memory
