Mafia #70: The Time Vortex

[Zaffy]

No idea what game it is. I vote to lynch Firedancer.

I vote to lynch Firedancer.

Going to the beach tomorrow, I might be home before nightfall, but if not then I want my vote with the only person I trust right now.

That was a ****ty nightfall. Once again,

I vote to lynch Zaffy.

Hopefully, this will be our last night.

I vote to lynch Zaffy....

I think Zaffy makes a good point here. JB is the only person we could trust up until last night. Unfortunately he may have been the turn last night too. We won't know until night or until the game ends. It sucks that on D6 or whatever day this is we are basically going on gut feelings as to who is scum. I'll have to trust that the scum didn't go after JB because he was most likely to be protected by the other CI's.

I think RB or Rich may have been good candidates for the turn due to their presumed innocence. Fire, Mad, Zaffy, JB and myself could easily be scum as well. According to JB there was no additional investigation results because the person investigated was also targeted by the hunter. As much as I hate to admit it I have to agree with RB...we are back to D1 all over again.

This may be my last post today and I won't be around for nightfall. I'm just hoping we can make the right decision. I'll try to check in again before I leave for the day.

It looks like no one has a clue as to what game we are in. I checked through the titles of all the mafia games last night and didn't really find anything that fit the bill. Maybe since RB either played or read just about every game he could help us out. I don't remember playing a format like the one described by Pappy so I'm guessing it was and older one.

Jpaps post says that the person who was attacked by the vampire took their last breath as an innocent. I think we can still trust JB.

Right...JB is or was innocent. I don't really think that JPap would differentiate between vanilla townie or CI in his post since the person is still playing.

To answer your previous question, Zaffy...I voted for you after night as my initial gut instinct after 4 of us going down in one night. After taking a little bit better look at things I decided to change my vote.

 

[dirtydawg10]

I'm gone...I won't be back until after nightfall.

 

[Madcrawdad]

I definitely don't want to be split going into nightfall.

I retract my vote on Zaffy and vote to lynch Firedancer

Night 1

It seems the lone CIA agent decided to take the night off instead of risk killing an innocent...the journalist, on the other hand, was busy putting together a headline for tonight...

Aliens sighted over ACVille... RB not among them.

RB is apparently innocent on night one. 1 scum killed


Night 2

The mafia, excited with the lynch, quickly decide to use the time period to their advantage...they grab their victim, strap them down, and insert the needle...within seconds, the person's genes have been altered...the evil scientists have gained another member...

A turn on night 2. Jpap said the game started with 3 scum, so we're back at 3.

The town is not without help...a pair of bio engineers have come up with a serum to raise one of their own back from the dead...they decide to test it on last night's victim...lucky for them it works...

Rich is back in the game.

The disgruntled lab worker, however, is no where to be seen...

Rich returns. Alignment assumed to be innocent.

Night 3

Another person walking away from the lynch is being followed...but in this case, the stalker has good intentions...determined to reverse what happened last night, the spell is cast...it hits the victim at full force...unfortunately, the full effects of the spell are only known to the target at this time...the spell caster flees the scene...

Reversal of what happened last night (maybe; last night rich was returned, and the scum had a turn, possibly a random effect)


Night 4
Gunslinger game, 3 scum are shot, one of whom was an apparent turn.

I've got an issue, night 1 we killed a scum. which brought the # of scum down to 2. Night 2 there is a turn, so # of scum is again 3. Jpap said that 3 scum can communicate at a time, so the turn should be able to communicate at this point. Ogre was apparently not aware of the other scum team, so he couldn't have been that turn.

How did Ogre become scum if he wasn't the turn? Was it the warlock spell effect? Are we looking for the turn? is Zaffy's reading comprehension above a 4th grade level?

Please elucidate, where in this post do I claim that there are more than 1 mafia? I don't, it never happens.



It happens here, in post by Wiz. He misread my post and thought that I thought there were multiple scum left.



I clarify that I indeed only thought there was 1 scum.



Jb was saying that Ogre was the 4th scum, so when kash died he was now the 3rd and was about to be able to communicate.

I was saying that I thought Ogre couldn't have been the night 2 turn because then he'd have been the 3rd scum present, and therefore would have been able to communicate, but he was not.

Do you see how essentially those two claims are the same? I do.



All you can come up with for me being scummy is something that Wiz misinterpreted.

If anything I'm guilty of poor writing.

Then please explain how you came up with "Reversal of what happened last night (maybe; last night rich was returned, and the scum had a turn, possibly a random effect)" from the JPap's post that you quoted under Night 3 (above). Where is this random scum turn of which you speak?

And why when Rich returns do you say that he was only "assumed" to be innocent? He was innocent. IMO you were just trying to sow confusion.

Clearly nothing Jpap says even hints at a random scum turn. But somehow you throw the idea out there and then use "maybe I'm confused" for an out? "How did Ogre become scum if he wasn't the turn? Was it the warlock spell effect? Are we looking for the turn? is Zaffy's reading comprehension above a 4th grade level?"

You're a teacher, you obviously have a college degree. Of course your comprehension is above a 4th grade level. What you've deduced from Jpap's posts just doesn't make sense based on what was written.

Weighed against anything seemingly townie that you've done this game, even that little bit would throw the balance toward scum.

Only reason I've switched to FD is to avoid being split come nightfall. I'd much rather lynch you.
