Effulgence Mafia Game Thread

[kuuskytkolme]

Kuuskytkolme who is more experienced in this game then I am has argued that mafia control of the vote isn't a major concern

They are going to block vote the second they can end the day with it, though. Also smoking people out with their voting history doesn't work when mafia memberes aren't dying.

Okay, after Alpha was confirmed mostly townesque, I'm not going to go after BSS. Thank you mafia! Tau's lynch feels way too easy (and I can say that, because I'm certainly not mafia trying to save a buddy.)

kuuskytkolme: confirmed Tony
Shoal: cult?
pistachi0n: cult?
BlueSkySprite: semi-confirmed by Alpha. Are you going to start being useful at some point soon? Now would be a good time.

Six players left: Aestrix, anthusiasm, jalapeno_dude, Paradox, tau, and Thatwasademo.

I want Paradox & anthusiasm to say things.

Vote Thatwasademo for now.

[anthusiasm]

I'm...not really sure what you want me to say? I think I've been reasonably active and very open about who I'm suspicious of.

I'll reiterate that yes, I am a Darcy with no powers.

Also, I think thatwasademo is telling the truth about being Ivan, mostly because of the way his night actions are written. The "Apparently I have amused the mods" bit in particular feels genuine.

(Edit: word choice, doesn't change the meaning of the sentence)

[pistachi0n]

I'm going to be a sheep and blindly follow Kuuskytkolme right now because I think we're all (town and remaining cult) probably at a lynch or lose and I know she is town and has no reason to vote for someone she doesn't think is mafia.

vote Thatwasademo

[tau]

Alright, fine. vote thatwasademo since we actually have reason to trust kuuskytkolme.

[Paradox]

Um do you want me to say anything in particular, Kuuskytkolme? I only have ill founded suspicions and am worried that sharing them will lower the signal to noise ratio but if you have reasons to think I should share them anyway please tell me. I think everyone agreed that role claiming wasn't a good idea at least not until later. Other than that I don't see what game relevant information I can talk about it. If you want me to say irrelevant things I could do that I suppose.

vote Thatwasademo

Wait why do you think we're in a lynch or lose situation?

People voting for thatwasademo are you just following Kuuskytkolme's lead or do you have reasons for thinking he is suspicious? He Is on my list of people I find suspicious but I don't really have any justification for that. Well, other than instinct which I am reluctant to trust.

[kuuskytkolme]

I strongly disapprove of pistachi0n sheeping on me. I'm going blind here and I just don't want BSS or tau to die right now. I want more information in this game. I'm so very bad at this.

[BlueSkySprite]

At this point I think I am probably the double voter. The mods aren't willing to tell me. Earlier I thought there might be a secret double voter setting up some kind of bizarre frame but now I think it's just me.
My template and the phrasing of the lack of information about powers led me to believe I did not have powers at the beginning but would get some later on and they would tell me when I did, but now I'm pretty sure I've got double voting powers that they aren't willing to tell me about. At the beginning, I expected to be more useful later due to my template and expectation of developing powers later. Now I think pretty much everyone knows what my powers are and how useful they are.

Demo seems a little more likely to be telling the truth because their descriPtion of trying to get information from the gods about their powera sounds a lot like my experience.

Sorry for any typos I'm on my phone and at school.

[tau]

Thatwasademo is one of the few people left that continues to be suspicious to me, though this list is getting shorter and shorter. I still hold that BSS is acting very strangely and I don't know why -- but I'd rather someone who is possibly mafia (thatwasademo) to die at this stage as opposed to someone who I know is town (i.e. me) since we're pretty close to getting to the point where we won't have enough kills to kill all the cult and all the mafia, depending on how many mafia members there actually are.

[pistachi0n]

The reason I'm sheeping on Kuusky is because, aside from Tau, Demo was the second most suspicious to me. I thought the reason the vote didn't count is because mafia can't vote for other mafia, and I know Shoal and I aren't mafia. If Kuuskytkolme was voting for BSS or Shoal I wouldn't be sheeping but since it's someone I'm suspicious of anyway, I figure it doesn't hurt to change my vote to Demo because I know Kuus isn't mafia and I can't say the same for everyone that's voted for tau so far.

[pistachi0n]

I also don't think Demo's mysterious power and being mafia are mutually exclusive. Due to the twists in the game so far, I wouldn't be surprised if there were mafia members with private win conditions or their own mysterious powers.
