    [[“Well...” Salac frowned. Nothing like the worst circumstances possible to get people to fall in love. It was no surprise they bonded quickly is such harsh circumstances... and no surprise that it ended in tragedy. “We got all those wedding supplies and everything. Now what, they’re going to...

    Wh- What? Persephone tell us nothing about the living players. It tells us who Fusion is, but... who cares anymore? We get more information about living people who actually matter from DW.

    The main issue with the abstain plan is that nobody will die at night either way. If one of us is killer, nobody dies b/c roleblock. If we’re innocent, they choose not to kill and laugh as you hand them another free mislynch. That’s the problem: The plan only works if the Mafia politely...

    Tanuki, I appreciate the commitment to pacifism, but we have multiple virtually guaranteed scums and we need to kill one. (I’m sticking with DW because I still believe the information her death will give us will make future discussions much easier, whereas Persephone doesn’t tell us much, but...

    On the other hand, if we abstain and the mafia kills someone, we’ll lose as soon as we mislynch, without the chance to soave ourselves with a roleblocker or healer. Assuming the mafia wins at 50/50, ‘cause otherwise the game could come down to a 50/50 split vote.

    He could’ve roleblocked a healer. Doing that to Espy would’ve caused a kill today.

    Also, going back to this, there’s a problem here. If we say “If there’s no mafia kill tonight we lynch person” and person is innocent, the Mafia will just choose to not kill that night and laugh as we all lynch each other.

    “Ah. I suppose, they didn’t die on the way over after all. Huh. Something probably did wipe them out, then... Well, unless they were actually all sterile.” He stopped to think for a moment. “How much of this crater was dug out by the excavators? Did the humans dig some of this? Or was there...

    As I was saying: Last night, her job was to take out the Vigilante and the Godfather. (Mafia Killer?) She made her highly suspicious claim last night after the votes were more or less solidified. That means she’d probably live the night, but be top candidate for a Vigilante kill, which she would...

    So, I’ve done all the thinking I really care to on DW, so I’ve been thinking about Persephone’s claim, since she’s the only real other vote I could be convinced to make. I think I have to lower her scum probablility from the 90% I was at last night down to maybe about 70% chance of scum. I...

    Like, imagine how confused we would’ve been if DWs block had’ve actually gone through. That’s what she was trying to cause. Given the option to roleblock he who should be obvious scum in her eyes, she actively chose to try to make things worse instead.

    Fall 2020 Mafia - Game Thread

    DWs night one action is pretty defensible, it’s the action tonight that makes no sense. If she’s town, and therefore knows that you’re Mafia, she should be targeting the obvious scum who can roleblock a healer instead of possible scum who might have a passive ability. Your claim confirmed you...

    Correction: Mafia Roleblocker probably knows better than to target Waffle with a block due to Windskull. It’d be better just to risk the failed kill, since we’d have been throwing the night away anyways.

    Fall 2020 Mafia - Game Thread

    I don’t think the bit of extra info from a skipped night justifies the risk of doing nothing when we’re so close a game over. The Mafia Roleblocker can block Waffle and they probably know who Espy has committed to. We could try to get an info role to catch them in the act, but the kill itself is...

    Fall 2020 Mafia - Game Thread

    Right now, I see one possibility that is by far the most likely is that Espy saved someone. We know Espy targeted someone, but not who it was. If the mafia killer targeted her target, no night kill. If Espy did save someone, I think DWs is scum. Nobody can confirm her townie roleblocker claim...
