Night 1 - Actions

Not the kind with cardstock and pawns. Mostly play by post Mafia so far.

So I just got the results of my investigation back: *kappa* is Talyn. Which, according to their power list, means we have a vigilante/voteblocker on our hands.

So should I kill Kappa instead then? I guess I probably should. Didn't know we we got results *before* daybreak.

Yes you should.

If Kappa is Talyn, who was Aestrix?

Yeah, I'm surprised as well. You may want to hold off and let Tulip do it tomorrow night? Kappa's not likely to have our number just yet, but she may have some sort of vengeance power or something if he's targeted for death? Actually, I guess you should be safe from that sort of thing because of pistachi0n... so, maybe, yeah. Your call.

On the other hand, I'm assuming vigilante means they can kill, but their target is the mafia and they wins if town wins. Since there's so much clutter this first day, maybe we let them pick off a few townies (assuming they're misreading people) and kill them when we think they're onto us?

Pistachi0n can only save me during the *day*. But it's definitely worth sacrificing myself if I need to to kill the vigilante.

Kappa definitely needs to die, though, before we get to a point where our numbers are almost equal to town. And he is smart. Oh, and since Aestrix turned out to be the traitor, killing her wouldn't trace back to us like we were worried about. Maybe tomorrow night?

I think it is worth killing Kappa tonight if possible (and I've sent a PM to that effect, though I think there's a good chance we weren't actually supposed to get investigation results until the day started and therefore it'll be rejected). If I was a Town vigilante I wouldn't kill at random, only once I was sufficiently suspicious of someone, both to avoid depleting Town and to prevent the mafia from knowing about me as long as possible. I assume Kappa will probably think the same way, so I doubt we'd actually benefit from waiting to kill her.

EDIT: The change was not allowed, as I expected. Apparently Alicorn "already reported to DanielH", which sounds vaguely ominous.

Oooooh shit. I guess we will find out in half an hour.

Oh well. Kappa will probably avoiding killing tonight if her win condition is town. But if there's a second kill, it's probably safe to assume Kappa.

Just had a thought - how likely is it that someone, potentially the traitor - has a power that interferes with my namecopping? Like, maybe Aestrix really was Talyn, but had some mind power that made me see Talyn no matter who I looked at?
