Mafia 94: When Gingers Attack; the play

Clarification:

Jessica's vial will not kill Jessica. It will either kill or turn a townie. Sorry if that part wasn't written clearly.

Well, if one was up for the lynch and they used it and it didn't work, they would not get the turn AND from the way I am reading it the one who used it would die also. So they would loose the one lynched and the one who used the syrum.

The way I read it is that the person it is used on is either turned or killed. The scum would have noting to worry about as they will either get rid of a townie or gain a ginger. JB, could you please explain how that works?

Why would they aim for a PR with the serum? Makes more sense to avoid a PR with the serum so they have the chance to turn someone. That ups their numbers while dropping townie numbers. They can take out PRs with hits. I do not understand where you are coming from with that statement Razz.

Evils: Carrot Top: Three times during the game he may use his freakishly large muscles to scare a townie into giving up their role.
Chuck Norris: I think this one’s obvious :thumbsup: . He gets a hit each night during the game. Should Chuck be killed during the game, the other Gingers will have a 50/50 kill/botched attempt each night.
Jessica Rabbit: got a hold of a vial of cartoon syrum. It’s rumored that this syrum can turn anyone into a ginger. The downside is if it doesn’t work, it will kill you and you’ll die a 1980’s cartoon version of yourself. (50/50 turn kill, useable once). If used on a townie PR, it’s an automatic kill.

I don't see why they wouldn't aim for a PR. If they have the chance to take one out, what would be keeping them from doing it? However, if the syrum can kill jessica rabbit, I would agree with you.

Done and done.

Alright so now what if the scum thought it could kill jessica rabbit so they kept from using it? If one scum was up for a lynch (that would be Pir) they would not want to risk loosing another by using the syrum. This adds to my thoughts about Pir being scum. While I know that Jessica will not be killed now, who's to say they knew that yesterday? They could have misunderstood the rules too.

That makes me feel less stupid. Bad for the town though.

So did you think it could kill Jessica Rabbit? Is that why you didn't use it last night?

I like what you did there Lab.... but I have no syrum.

No, I never thought it could kill Jessica Rabbit but if a townie could've misunderstood who's to say a ginger couldn't also? It explains why they would not have wanted to use the syrum.

I still don't see why you think the scum would target a PR with the serum when targeting a townie gives them a shot for another member and a guaranteed loss for the town. Can you explain your reasoning further?

If I had the serum and my teammate investigated a PR, I would hit the PR and use the serum on some else. You get two that way. I cant see how you would think it any other way.

I'm not sure how much more I can explain but at this point in time they have all their mafia members so there is no need to gain another. Need being the key word. If we are able to lynch/ genetically test one of the gingers, then I can see where targeting a townie is more productive. Then they could replace the one they lost. Make sense so far? As far as not using their hit, well I guess that would be a personal decision between the mafia members. Yes, they could do the same with a hit. Also, keep in mind if they turn someone, that person is going to have to rework their game play (provided they weren't already looking at the wrong people). That shift would be fairly obvious to the town and would be something everyone would be on the lookout for if we knew the syrum was used. Follow? So then everyone is suspecting that person and we vote to test them. Well that one mafia member that they gained is now lost so they are back to the number they had before, right? So I guess it would have to fit the situation, kill an innocent or turn an innocent but have them die by testing. Almost the same thing right?

I have no idea if that makes any more sense than before but trust me, it all makes sense in my head! :nilly:
