That's lynch.
I will be going on vacation this saturday. Since we will apparently not finish this game before then, I think I'd better ask for a replacement to vote for Shamrock tomorrow.

You open your eyes as morning breaks, and it takes a little time to adapt to the blackness.
"Welcome to the infinite void of space!" says Q, "I hope you like it here. Just thought I'd pop by to point out nobody was assimilated last night, I'll leave you to it. Toodle-pip!"
With 4 alive, it is

Going on vacation right now, would prefer not to be replaced, as the game is over anyway, and I don't want to be replaced in my 50th Mafia.

"That's three!" said Q. "You do realise, I hope, that if Shamrock is Borg, you've won, and if he isn't, you've lost?"
"Well.... let's see."
Shamrock explodes into an expanding sphere of fleshy grey chunks, spreading himself across the universe like a miniature Big Bang.
Fleshy grey chunks... with cogs in them.
"I'd say well done" muttered Q "but I'm more of the opinion that the Borg lost than you won...."
Setup notes to follow.

Short version (I'll edit role PMs in later):
3 Mafia:
Locutus of Borg
Seven of Nine
Hugh
9 Town:
2 masons (Geordi and Data)
Cop (Troi)
Doc (Crusher)
Roleblocker (Spock)
Vig (Worf)
3 Townies (Riker, Wesley Crusher, Guinan)
Obv, this is weighted pretty heavily to the town. But then, you always get a twist in a Seol Mafia game.
The twist came in from a brainstorming session about what you'd need to do in order to allow mod-PM quoting (which I did explicitly allow this game, I don't think anyone noticed ) without it being abusable.
The answer I came up with was "give the scum town role PMs".
And that's what they got.
Locutus of Borg started the game with a Picard, vanilla townie role PM. Whenever a player was assimilated, all three scum got a copy of that player's role PM (without the identity of the other mason, if it was a mason PM). That's why all you got was "innocent" or "guilty", and not full reveals. This would mean that not only would scum get fake claims in, and indeed start the first day with two fake claims primed and ready, but also they'd know safe
Unfortunately, the scum never got a useful role PM, they managed to hit

power
-claims as they'd know (some of) which role functionalities were dead already. I wasn't sure exactly how powerful that was, but I figured that (give or take) this would balance the essential strength of the town.Unfortunately, the scum never got a useful role PM, they managed to hit
all three
vanillas and (even worse) a mason, and the cop came out early and the doc stayed alive. Furthermore, the scum either didn't realise or didn't try to use mod-quoting to their advantage, which was, to be honest, half the concept.[i]The hungry maw of Twilight snaps, but shall not have its fill,

But you lynched me soSeol wrote:You are Worf, the Chief Security Officer of the Starship Enterprise. You have a simple solution to this problem – less talking, more fighting. You still have your phaser with you, and it’s set to kill. Each night, you may kill one player.
You win when the Borg threat has been repelled.

Spiffy idea. I like it.
I thought MoS was scum when I was dead.
