Paired Mafia - game thread

It's the kind of reason that I'm not going to post in the thread.
 
For once more, all townies gathered.
On the center of a main square, they found Turquoiside's body, terribly disfigurated - as if some kind of machine or big, wild animal tore his limbs apart. His hands were still holding lantern post, but his legs... No, we should not think about it.
Spoiler :
Turquoiside was a townie!


Day 7 begins. REMEMBER: it lasts only 24 hours

List of living players:

1. Mechaerik
2. Choxorn
3. GamezRule
4. Skwink
5. ATPG
 
Vote choxorn

I'm entirely familiar with false claiming before the real claimant has a chance to speak.

As has been my pattern recently, my instinct is not to trust the first claimant. Seeing as no one but Backwards Logic is opposing this bandwagon, I choose not to support it.

This post, combined with the fact that BL turned out to be mafia, makes me suspicious of you.

FoS: Askthepizzaguy

FoS: GamezRule

This is a cute theory, btw.

Let's say I'm the last mafia. The vote is two against my partner, and one against choxorn. Why would I vote for my partner, bringing the tally to 3-1 and pretty much sealing his lynch? I'm sorry, but this is just too much. vote: Askthepizzaguy
 
I survived? Well, that's a surprise. The kill choice is also a bit of a surprise.

Now, I'm almost 100% certain that either ATPG or mechaerik is the last mafia. I don't know which. And no, I didn't roleblock either of them, because the ability only had two uses, and I used the second one on BL two nights ago (I used the first one on Verarde on Night 2 or 3, I can't remember which)

I'm still leaning slightly towards ATPG, although his behavior has been absolutely insane and out of character for the way he acts as mafia. On the other hand, I wouldn't put it past him to act this insane just because he knows that we'd think he'd never act like this if he was mafia.

I won't decide yet. ATPG, can you convince me that you're not mafia, and someone else is?
 
I am surprised to have lived this long.

I am the oddball role, which is a non-paired townie. I had two scans which I used to determine that Captain Blackadder was Zack's partner, and Mechaerik is Skwink's partner. As such, I can clear Mechaerik and Skwink as being townie. That means either yourself or GamezRule is guilty. As such, no matter what happens from this moment onward, the mafia will be defeated, since there are two lynches remaining.

I am very surprised no one flinched at this post. Backwards Logic was already known to be guilty by me at this point, since he claimed Blackadder was his partner.

Choxorn, GamezRule-

Choxorn's move against Backwards Logic is fairly ironclad for a reason not to lynch Choxorn first. Gamez, do you have exonerating evidence?
 
Wha... Wha... What?

Everything I've known is a lie if that's true. See, GamezRule told me he had the odd-ball role, one somewhat similar to the role that you claim to have.

And I can't help but think you're telling the truth. Partially for private, metagamy reasons, and partially because none of what you've been doing makes any sense at all if you've been mafia. You couldn't have just guessed that Skwink and mecha are partners, and if you did, that's one hell of a lucky guess. They can't confirm that they are, but they could confirm you're lying by claiming their dead partner was someone else.

And yet, GamezRule knew I was a roleblocker since Day 3 and I haven't died yet. Granted, that's explainable if me roleblocking a mafia (BL) prevents any attempt by any of the mafia to kill me, and he already knew I'd used my first block on Verarde. Still, allowing me to live on the many nights I could have been killed was one hell of a risk to take.

To sum up: Unless I'm just being completely Bull-spitted and something really really crazy is going on, the last mafia must be either GamezRule or ATPG. If ATPG is mafia, he's just lying about his claim. If he's innocent, he's telling the truth, which means GamezRule is mafia, or his scanning power doesn't work.

Both seem, in light of events that have happened, to be ridiculously unlikely to be mafia.

My head hurts. I need some time to figure all this out.

Skwink, Mecha, if you aren't actually partners and your dead partner is someone else, say so now. If you are partners, just help me try and figure this out.
 
Choxorn: In this situation, you leave your vote on me today, and you lynch GamezRule tomorrow. There is a zero percent chance the mafia win the game if so. The alternative is admitting that you are in fact mafia, and that you and Backwards Logic bussed each other.

Choxorn, if you lynch GamezRule instead of me, and I survive to tomorrow, I am voting for you. This situation is not that complicated.
 
I realize that may have sounded blunt. It's just very rare that I can narrow down the mafiosi remaining to two candidates when there are two lynches remaining. If BL was a gambit, then you've outplayed us and you win with style. Otherwise, it's me or Gamez and I have the pizzaguy is innocent card. Therefore the game is solved.
 
Roleblock me tonight.

As for my own defense, this is what I prepared yesterday should I be fortunate enough to survive. The above is an invitation for choxorn to claim to have roleblocked me today to get me lynched, should he be mafia. He didn't do that, which is why my vote is not on choxorn.

The above is also game-losing if I am mafia and choxorn is innocent, because then I am telling choxorn to follow up on his suspicions of me and prove me guilty beyond all doubt. Choxorn obviously never told *me* he was out of roleblocks.

Every move I made is in-thread for everyone to see.

Mechaerik and Skwink: I placed my suspicions on GamezRule yesterday in case I died, near the end of the night.

FoS: GamezRule

This was me letting you know who my next suspect was.

Vote: GamezRule pending his defense.
 
I can hardly argue with someone telling me I'm clearly a mafia if I don't vote for them. :lol:

Vote: askthepizzaguy

If you're mafia, I upgrade the status of your genitalia from "Diamonds" to "The Crystals used in Lightsabers." If you're not, then I thank you for helping us find the real mafia, and GamezRule will die. I would vote for Gamez now, because you've almost convinced me it's impossible for anything to be true but him being the last mafia, but I can't shake the feeling that you still could be, and to be honest, I think you could totally use those crystal cojones and general pizzaness to get me lynched tomorrow if you are the last mafia, so voting you now and GamezRule tomorrow is probably somewhat less likely to result in somehow losing this. One of you is innocent, one of you is mafia, and the one that is mafia is going down, either today or tomorrow.

And if you're both innocent, then this game can suck the lightsaber ATPG's genitalia are generating.
 
Maybe I should also wait to see if you've made another post before I post the one I spent way too much time typing up...

I'M SO CONFUSED THIS MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL
 
Let's say I'm the last mafia. The vote is two against my partner, and one against choxorn. Why would I vote for my partner, bringing the tally to 3-1 and pretty much sealing his lynch?

Because it's a predictable bussing maneuver when your mafia partner is caught out. A tactic that has never been done before in the history of mafia.

Hey choxorn, I'm absolutely a scumbag. That's why I made sure there was some way to survive the next two rounds, sucked up to everyone who I need to vote with me, bussed my mafia partner, and left open the possibility of ever lynching mechaerik or skwink again. I'm fifty feet tall, kill men by the hundreds. My man junk is a red lightsaber, and I shoot force lightning from my arse.

I am the oddball role, which is a non-paired townie. I had two scans which I used to determine that Captain Blackadder was Zack's partner, and Mechaerik is Skwink's partner.

As such, no matter what happens from this moment onward, the mafia will be defeated, since there are two lynches remaining.
This is a laughable fallacy.

For one thing, the non paired townie gets unlimited scans. However, you can only scan for one thing, to find another pairless townie to make a pair. Once a pair is made, I lose my ability and become a vanilla paired townie. I had the extraordinary luck to find a partner (who is still alive) on night three, which also happened to be my first scan, since I generally forgot before that.

That said, choxorn is correct. I discovered his roleblocking ability on night three.
 
So... which claim seems more likely...

You know what? It really doesn't matter. There's absolutely no way both of your claims can be true. Like I already said, if one of you isn't mafia, then this game can suck ATPG's lightsaber. That means that it doesn't matter who gets lynched. If it's the mafia, yay, we win. If it's the innocent, then the mafia gets lynched tomorrow.

Which gives me a new idea: Jarrema, what happens in case of a tie?
