Board 8 > English Literature Mafia Topic 11: Rising Action

(+) Yeah! (+)

The next morning was quite the crazy one, as people were immediately dealing with the disappearance of multiple people. There was of course the Teenager, who was previously mentioned. But also nowhere to be found was the Lawyer and the Explorer.

The Racer, who so often stood on the cliffside where the Dignitarys ashes were spread, was the one to find the Lawyer. She saw the dead woman lying below, her head bashed open against the rocks. Her glasses lay beside her, broken.

Dowolf has died! He was

I cant hardly move with all these creeper things.

The owner of the voice came backing out of the undergrowth so that twigs scratched on a greasy wind-breaker. The naked crooks of his knees were plump, caught and scratched by thorns. He bent down, removed the thorns carefully, and turned around. He was shorter than the fair boy and very fat. He came forward, searching out safe lodgments for his feet,and then looked up through thick spectacles.

You are Piggy (Lord of the Flies), TOWN Kingmaker. Sucks to your ass-mar! Youre quite intelligent, but the other kids dont like listening to you because youre fat and nearsighted and frankly, remind them of grown-ups. But youll do your best to be a voice of reason.

You have the conch! But people dont like to listen to you. Once during the game, during Day, you can use the following template: I have the conch!: [player name] to give another player of your choice COMPLETE CONTROL of the lynch for the day. As soon as they make a new vote, the day is ENDED.

The party spent the next half hour trying to decide if itd be worth it to fetch the body, to bury it. Eventually, they decided it would simply be better to let it get washed away in the waves. It was the Actress who called on everybody to head to the docks. There, they found the Explorer. A massive fishhook was sticking out of his stomach, the blood having died the wood already.

Sir Chris has died! He was

You are the letter g, TOWN Villager. The 7th letter of the English alphabet, you are often used to represent things that start with your letter (ie. gravity, grand). You are also one of the primary note names in Western music!

As a TOWN Villager, you have no additional powers.

Even having ousted the conspiracy members before, the party knew - there was still somebody out there. And they were still being killed, one by one

@Lea3Lea

Be the last bastion with me

It's my duty as the sole remaining DoomTheGyarados left in the game.

Come on folks, name a 4 man remaining scum team that doesn't include Mzero. It can't be done, I tells ya

@htaeD

I've got you as just Town mate

Your list of 5 with both Luis and Red was good work

I had some doubts but I think you're fine

that is quite a flavor chris has there

we have a mayor in a game where we needed 15 minutes to doublecheck a single vote SHOCK

##Vote: Lea

I kinda doubt I will be able to sell Pez or Sbell or Ulti today so CONGRATS IT IS YOUR TURN

(yes I could ROOMMATE POWERS but even if I was ready we are running out of people who would care)

You think you can sell me more than Pez and Sbell.....?

En Guarde, I guess

I almost went Sbell not gonna lie

everybody likes pez and hates me right now so I am not optimistic about my ability to win the roommate finals

You should have had a cool magic trick like Chris to really sell your powers.

Anyway, why is Mzero town?

So like, we have Pez calling Tom town and Tom calling Pez scum. If they're so good at reading each other then there can never be a world where the opposite is true, correct? No world where Pez is town and Tom is scum.

Maybe they're both town, maybe they're both scum, but killing Pez would be smart. Mainly I want to kill him because I've personally thought he's sounded kinda fake all game and he's on my now very small list of non-town reads

In fact, show me who was saying Pez is town and Tom is scum. Because that goes against what both roommates are telling us

To an extent? I'm not sure why Pez is SO liked now but I didn't come away from Lopenfest2K19 looking that great.

I am not actually sure it's the same people saying both of those! Just I saw him on a buncha town lists and a buncha people who would kinda like me to hang.

I'll have to go back and see then

Not that anyone cares, but the list I gave to Sir Chris was:

Red
Mzero
Luis
Lolo

2 flipped mafia

Hi. Go ahead car ride taking longer than expected as gf wants mini golf. If I die listen to cam dude is zany but highly accurate and Lopen

@Lopen

Let's be a team

Pez likes me as town because I think like him, therefore by the transitive property he must think like me so I should like him as town.

But I say again:

Why not Mzero?

It should be a huge red flag there's nothing is his favour other than IDK he's always kinda an underwhelming poster. Players like him need the MOST attention!

##vote: SBell

Ayyyyyy

Scan from town power fake miller Puns coming in hot

I wish they'd killed me instead of dowolf. I'm not sure how much enthusiasm I have to keep playing with Chris dead. I'll give it a shot, though. Will just take a bit to get a read on who to go for. Well, any new reads that aren't one day old anyway.

##Vote: Tom

Obvious scummate with red is obvious.

Tom - I'm not on board with this

I'm still quite certain I'd prefer you gone sooner than later; this push is not endearing

Lea3Lea's pushes look quite good for her

Okay Cam who are you thinking we should kill today.

Power of teamwork

I'll vote for Tom when I'm at a computer

I do find it a little telling that Tom wants me lynched not because he thinks I'm the scummiest, but because he says he doesn't think he can get any of his other suspects lynched.

That's way different than my D1 strategy, shut up

True. I need to get better at giving it to them. Folks like him that don't have a big impression or a big personality or a long history with me I generally just tend to glaze over.

I voted him twice yesterday, once before and once after it particularly mattered why don't you love meeeee

Ill drop my notes later, but Tom remains with the most associative cues among both Luis and Red

He's thinking Mzero

It is indeed highly unlikely Tom is scum and I'm town. I'm not sure there's a world he votes me when I'm town and he's scum. But it's only slightly less unlikely that we're both scum together.

I thought he was at 70/30 on me. I don't know how it's so much closer to 100/0 (this is what roommate powers mean by the way). I'd like to hear why, other than tone, so I can try to defend myself on it.

My only guess is that because I'm playing differently than last game it sounds different to him maybe? I know my game has evolved more than he anticipated. But that doesn't make sense. I don't think I've played that different from my typical style. Last game I did play a bit different because I was trying to obscure my role. This game I didn't try that. So, I'm just confused.
---

If it was a non-notifying poisoner and not just scum believing protection would be on 5tarscream over Chris, I'd be pretty wary of Corrik. I recall that kind of uncanny set up accuracy being the kind of bold scum thing he does.

We've only got one outed power role. Seems dumb to mass right now to me. I do feel like it may become the right action depending on what suspicious people claim when they're pressured, however.
---

Tom, you're killing Pez today or I'll kill YOU
---

You're down to 60/40 if it makes you feel better! It is mostly still tone but it was still convenient that you started downplaying the roommate powers at the peak of my suspicion on you.

also the push on me was timed real well to those times you announced your absence but that's not necessarily your fault

Tom Bombadil posted...

I almost went Sbell not gonna lie

I don't know what to think of SBell. I'm willing to discuss him. I don't have any idea what his game has been. He's not given anything helpful. But he's been blatantly obvious about it. So I don't know if he's town trying to look scummy and live or scum trying to hide in plain sight.

I don't like that death called red being another roleblocker.

Where do you get that data?

We've killed the mafia roleblocker literally twice, surely 5tarscream has something. I do like a mass but we've gotta be due for some juicy scans after so many night killed vanillas

Do you think people pushing for your lynch are scum?

UltimaterializerX posted...

Tom is such obvious scum that it hurts. His actions this game have just all been off, especially on day 2.

Off from what, exactly? We've played one board game together I think and I was scum there. Maybe a couple aim games?

He tried a lot harder last game!

I suspect there's some in there but you and Cam are my top town so I am more interested in like Ulti

Uh, you know it's possible to lynch strangers, right? I know B8, myself included, love to reference other games for similar behavior but there are actions that are just straight up scum motivated

Like not lynching Mzero!

I don't much like mass here. We've got two power dead, and another one (presumably) outted. I feel like we're gonna out the protection and get like all nilla claims.
