M-NOTW XI: The Murderer's Web

ghost comment: It's someone who's town but scans and/or is revealed upon death as scum.

We really need a [ghost][/ghost] tag like the [delurk][/delurk] one, instead of having to type [COLOR="Magenta"]ghost comment:[/COLOR]

 

[Earthling]

correct me if I'm wrong, but he didn't investigate you as scum landlubber. He hadn't scanned you at all, but he had found several others innocent. So I hardly trust this miller claim.

 

[Verarde]

Same here. To me, it seems like a last minute attempt to falsely prove innocence.

 

[Autolycus]

So, do we get the shocking denouement of this narrative sometime soon?

 

[Darth Caesar]

Too much shipping...oh what?! Yeah sometime soon I'm not quite up to writing right yet though.

The Final Update​

And so the party decided to arrest landlubber on the fateful last day.

"Search him," ordered Winston to his colleague DrumStudent.

"Eh, what have we hear?" And from ll's pocket he produced a large kitchen knife. "This is the weapon that was used to kill Darth's Wife wasn't it.

"Alright you caught me, what are you going to do shoot me?"

No sooner than he said this then a shot rang out "Yes," said DrumStudent.

Spoiler :

landlubber was shot. He was a killer!

Innocent Victory!!!​

Congrats to the surviving innocents, you've won!

 

[Earthling]

Nice work by our Innocent Detective and Inspector really, good job on catching the scum with the right votes.

Glad I didn't get framed and lynched but I never got to kill anyone with my rake...

 

[Autolycus]

Sorry for being so paranoid, Winston, but your survival when we all knew you were an investigator seemed too convenient. Verarde seemed that way too, but the dearth of kills bore out his claims. Nice scanning!

 

[landlubber]

So...
Who strangled, and what was up with the heart attack? I knifed, and Seon gunned, btw.

 

[Seon]

You know, Darth, I have to complain about game balance. One night, We attacked BOTH the inspector and the Detective and failed to get either of them. What, was one of them an unkillable protector or something?

 

[Darth Caesar]

Sorry I overcompensated for the Killers having two kills. I'll do better next time.

 

[Darth Caesar]

So...
Who strangled, and what was up with the heart attack? I knifed, and Seon gunned, btw.

The strangling was simply a plot device to justify the arrested people dying, the Maid would have a heart attack if the Butler died due to her age.

 

[Verarde]

I was unkillable until the Heiress died. I could not protect the Heiress.

 

[Earthling]

One night, We attacked BOTH the inspector and the Detective and failed to get either of them. What, was one of them an unkillable protector or something?

This is an oft-repeated and learnable mistake though in a lot of games - sometimes it's better for the mafia to simply take out the largest number of people than try to go after like one or two powerful, protected folks. Actually refreshing it worked out this way for the Innocents for once (after all, the concurrent NOTW with this mini-game had all those killings of even people who thought they couldn't be nightkilled...)

OTOH I knew Winston had to be Innocent since at least Day 2 because he wouldn't have saved me from being lynched otherwise, when it was such an easily swingable lynch if he/DrumStudent had been mafia.

 

[Winston Hughes]

That's as fair a complaint as any mafia ever made.

Still, any enjoyable game. Thanks, DC.

 

[Darth Caesar]

You're welcome!

 

[Verarde]

Excellent game, DC. Good writeups and well managed. And my second victory in a week!

 

[civplayah]

I've got to apologize to Seon, who I seriously screwed over and ultimately lead to the death of us. That's probably my worst failure. Again, I'm very sorry, Seon.

 

[classical_hero]

So who was the protector. I am pretty happy that i won this game, since I had not abilities at all.

 

[Takhisis]

As long as I was alive Autolycus would be bulletproof. Dang!
