Don’t answer this, but JJD should definitely be made to explain himself tomorrow.
Why tomorrow?
Because we know today’s lynch and the additional information won’t be lost during a night phase if it matter (aka you’re scum).

It’s almost like I’m not a drooling idiot and there are actually reasons behind the things I post.

Well, you see, JJJ. Mafia is a game where there are good guys and bad guys. The good guys are often called "Town," and the bad guys are called "Mafia."

Some of the good guys and bad guys have super powers, that we call "Roles."

When you play a game of mafia, there is a special guy who like the God of the game, who is called the "Mod." He should have sent you a PM telling you your alignment and role. He sent me one too.

He might have sent you one saying you are a Doctor of Unknown Sanity, which is a very complicated and unusual role. He sent me one that says I am a Cop of Unknown Sanity. A Cop is a really powerful sort of mafia superpower that lets you ask the "mod" what the alignment of another player is every night, and normally he or she will give you an accurate answer.

The unknown sanity part means is that I can be Sane, Insane, Naive, or Paranoid, just like in your role PM! This means that sometimes the mod will not give me an accurate answer. If I am Insane, I will get the opposite alignment. If I am Naive, I will get "Town" no matter what. If I am Paranoid, I will get "Mafia" no matter what.

Cephrir, who is aligned with the Mafia, was given the same role as I have! Because he is mafia, he will try to pretend he is not mafia to fool the Town. That means that he needs to pretend to investigate someone just like I did. Because of the special "caffeine" mechanic in this game, and because of the possibility that he is "Tracked," he would probably ~actually~ act in an effort to appear to be Town aligned, and truthfully claim who he investigated.

There's no way for us to be certain what his result really is, but if he lies and says the opposite, it's possible that we will discover that he's a lying liar later as the different cop sanities become clear. Thus, he is very likely to be telling the truth.

Because it is possible that he's insane or paranoid, it is possible that the "Mod" would tell him that the person he investigated is Mafia, even if that person isn't!

Does that clear it up for you?

I’m not going to bother responding to the rest of that post because to do so would tell scum more than town and that’s clearly why it should be tabled til tomorrow.

Also, your daily reminder that jjd is scum.

JJD, people who are town aligned are lying. It's very unlikely that ceph is lying UNLESS he has a modifier that he can't be caffeinated or something like that.

I have a pet theory that the bats die of being targeted, and that I might have killed Fish.

Seems farfetched, but I do agree with the notion that the caffeine doesn't add up.

It seems really likely the entire mafia team can't be caffeinated, actually.

There's kind of some asymmetry otherwise, with the, do I perform the factional nightkill, or do I use my role.

I guess by Bingle's logic I shouldn't post thoughts like that

I'm not sure I have a counterargument that I should, actually, I'm just insolent

"unknown Vig" may or may nor have acted

That's SEVEN bloody caffeinated slots. The Mod says only 4.
I was taking a gamble on what happened with marquis, but I was probably wrong.

Ive already explained my situation in the hood last night and see no reason to discuss it right now. itll only serve as a distraction

So im in a position to lol-hammer now, ignore pops request, deny chandra any last words, and just be a general smug asshat?

Goddamn, you people sure ask a lot of me.

I'm paranoid the codenames game is madeup and Kagami+Chandra slipped in referencing sharing investigation results, because their codenames schema seems really silly in several ways, including assigning you a letter.

and on top of that, the irony of hammering chandra, who was most likely faking early game anger over me threatening to lolhammer people without a claim, and called out for it......

a goodness, its almost too much to resist.

they have a hood of 4?

You really think the mod was so devious to put three scum in there? and them then havibg the audacity to kill croag of all people?

Didnt they say that chandra made the schema? because then it kinda makes sense why it has some non-town-touches, no?

@FakeGod
Can you confirm that no neighborhood has more than 2 mafia in it?
Let's perform the exercise.



Shooting an uncaffienated cop that people should be townreading but aren't is a good shot.
