Mafia #14 -- The Play

Ummm, DC you do realize Dj was lynched tonight don't you? He actually ended up innocent, very surprising to all but he was!
The other part you posted about him "take the sacrifeice for more than a day to keep people off the trail of your teammates", very strange thing to say DC...why would you want him to do that...I would hope IF he ended up Mafia wouldn't we hope he'd slip and we would find others through him?
Unfortunately he ended up innocent so we ended up w/ another townie loss.

I know he was lynched, I just wanted to give Swayde my full analysis of everyone on my list, living or dead. I also mentioned that his playing style reeked of mafia and gave an explanation of why it should have played out a certain way. It did not, which made it very confusing. Usually behavior like that is used to draw attention. Instead he got himself lynched for no reason. Quite odd.
 
Ok so I've done something thinking.. And again I want to believe LadyG but that nagging little thing is sitting back in my mind. I haven't had time to fully research it and am not willing to cast a vote until I am more committed to one side or another. But I did go back and read the rules. Here are two things that I think we are ALL forgetting about.

Botched Hit/Lynch - One night I will use a random number generator to see if there will be a botched hit or lynch. I will then use the random number generator to see if the chosen botch works or not. The night is random and will be chosen at game start by pulling numbers out of a hat. It will be in the 1st week though.

The Thief...this person can stop a lynch or hit from happening. On the one time they can function, they PM me and let me know what they want to steal, the lynch or the hit. The PM must be sent as soon as possible after a nightfall (beginning of a new game day), for use the next night.

In the past games I have played when someone was saved by the doc Bob's description of the even always included something to the effect of the "Doctor rushed in and applied" something, "Or the Doctor injected " something etc.. Last night we saw that a strategicly placed mirror saved the person. (Bob never said innocent).. In fact he didn't even give us a hint as to who the person was..

Again I WANT to believe LadyG but the timing of her coming out, the number of games she has played at least leads me to believe that she should have a grasp of when it is good for the DET to come out, if at all.. She wasn't in danger last night from a lynch... Its all just tooooooo questionable for me right now. To top that off I had seen DD as being helpful to the town (somewhat) at least more than LadyG had been, or at least that is my recollection when going through posts during the LadyG, Blue and DD catfight.

I know I need to do more research but I have to work today and probably am not going to be back until late. I have a 16 cable install and need to get out of town as it stands.

Can someone else help me out here?


Since a few of you have mentioned 24 hr days, let me know, I don't want to surprise anyone.
Bob simply due to my work schedule (see signup thread) I'm voting no against this.. And I really want to be able to research what I am not understanding right now. I would appreciate the time to do so.. Thanks.
 
CL....

Tonight's mafia victim is in a heap on the floor, crying tears of joy, that they are still alive, thankful for the Doctor's Protection and heads up advice.

The well placed mirror in the slightly darken room gave the Mafia a target, while no real life damage was done. The victim decides to ride out the night roaming the streets, safe for another day.
 
Kind of convenient that CL noticed the strategically placed mirror in the second half of RB's post and ignored the very obvious part about the Doctor's Protection at the very beginning of it. How'd you miss that CL? You sure do seem to be trying awfully hard to protect DD and discredit LG.
 
Well there goes that theory.. So maybe she is the DET.. my tilt meter is leaning more towards that fact..

But **** that timing.. I know she explained it but it still isn't sitting well...

Because I am limited for time.. Need to get out the door and didn't read the whole post.. Geez can I go to work now?

Sure, I'm not holding a gun to your head. I just find it hard to believe you'd catch the end of a post and not the beginning. You must skim read weird.

Its not that I'm wanting to discredit anyone btw.. I'm just not willing to hand the "Keys to the Town" to someone that has one investigation under their belt and comes out 30 minutes before nightfall. In fact to me anyone else not questioning it and just blindly following is questionable because you are NOT using logic or rational and are proving your nothing more than cattle. We can apply this to IRL and how people blindly follow other things in life.

Like I said.. I WANT to believe, I'm starting to believe but I still am uneasy about this whole thing. Aren't you?

If I had come out last night at 30 minutes before nightfall and said I'm the DET and LadyG is the mafia new boss would the same thing have happened? I just find it to conincidental that as soon as that happened 3 to 4 people all of a sudden jumped onto voting for DD.. (Isn't that number what we are speculating is the size of mafia teams???)

There are questions and I have to see if I can find answers first. Thanks for the help in pointing out that the doctor was involved however... As I did honestly miss it.
 
that should read "missed" it
