Oops. My bad. I got confused by you being Sherlock but that's still not an excuse. My apologies, Tamien.
...and um, what? WHAT! Kill DanielH.
If people are opposing us here, knowing Chelsea, they are likely her minions or something. If it turns out Alpha was lying we should kill him next turn. But I don't know why he would lie about this. And the risk of having a Chelsea around sounds way way too dangerous.
Though Alpha, you said before that you didn't think DanielH was mafia. Why did you think that before? What did you know then, and what's changed?

And I second michaelblume's question -- how does the power work? What do we have to be afraid of, here?

Yeah, the fact that there exist mind-control powers in this game makes me worried -- can Chelsea make someone's win-condition change mid-game?

Yesterday you liked me. I admit that isn’t incompatible with me being Chelsea, because I pointed out you care more about people having powers than about what those powers are, but now you’re trying to kill me? Why would you try to kill somebody with an interesting power? For that matter, how would Chelsea’s power in particular cause you to lose? A Chelsea would want to befriend powerful roles, not kill them. That is what the canon Chelsea helped with, after all.
This is to show that Alphabeta trying to kill me for being Chelsea isn’t reasonable. It doesn’t actually argue against me being Chelsea. For that, I direct you to my roleclaim and my powers, as well as the following:
I knew he was Chelsea, I just got greedy in my hope of using his power to coordinate actions without the killers listening in. However, the win condition alteration aspect of the power is, upon consideration, unacceptable (to be used on me). I'm not fond of the plans to thin out everyone's numbers to make the new win condition easier either, which I only found out today.
Dammit, you published your key before I could mention that you lied in your crypto.

Oh my goodness yes. It changes to "only people who are Chelsea's friend are alive," plus any existing survival-based ones.
Oh, that reminds me, the current cultist may want to come forward for decontamination by Griffin or Elsepth tomorrow night. They aren't particularly interesting, but I'd rather not make anyone lose and have to still play.

...holdup a sec. DanielH is saying he has a weird substitution power. Is it possible, Alpha, that DanielH was substituting for someone else and you picked up _their_ power and not his?
If so -- DanielH -- who were you substituting for that night? And more to the point... why were you doing so?

Also Alpha -- what does " I'm not fond of the plans to thin out everyone's numbers to make the new win condition easier either, which I only found out today." mean?
