Mainstream Mafia II: D&D Edition [FIN]

[Pine]

I think xofelf first? We can afford a probable mislynch, but confirming that she’s uncorrupted will finalize the rest of the game plan

[Pine]

She’s like 97% Town, but that 3% is a big problem

[Pine]

Wait no. I think we already lost if Cult has a backup recruiter?

Almost50

Hey people who voted me yesterday, do you guys want to get out of your own way and let me win this game for you?

[xofelf]

Still only 1 cult.

I mean hey, if lynching me to confirm I haven't been lying this whole time is what you feel you need to do whatever, can we lynch our claimed cult first at the very least? At least let me be functionally VT before you do that. But also, like... only do that if lynching me isn't going to lose us the game. Like I know I've been functionally useless a lot of this game, I get that. But come on, I have one job, and I've been doing it all game, and I've never stopped doing that job and I've been pretty consistent on doing that without fail. If we think that there's still another scum that wasn't a50, we need to focus on finding them. I'm a waste of a kill when we don't have all those many left to sort out. Things worked how we planned out that they would last night, we're doing really good on that, let's actually try to finish off and win this game, okay?

[gobbledygook]

I think there’s very likely still 1 scum out there, but who knows who it is. I would wager ML/RCE.

ML because I’m pretty sure that fire kill flavor on Dave implicates her. RCE because of that fake inno with flipped scum.

[Pine]

See...that makes me actually want to lynch you even more, xofelf. Town!xofelf would probably be cool with her precautionary lynch

VOTE: xofelf

[gobbledygook]

The play today is to lynch me so that EP gets his bookie ability. Then do the

opposite

of what Pine suggests because his sense of direction in this game is completely wrong. If he didn’t have such a protown ability and the flavor result, I would say he was scum. But for now he can just be honorary scum.

No one hammer me until we get an RCE letter.

[xofelf]

I didn't say I'm not cool with being lynched Pine. Don't misrep what I said. I'm saying, don't kill me purely as precautionary when we have 1 claimed cult and my daily update from the mod says we only have 1 that we can lynch first, and we don't know if we still have scum left. Like fuck dude, I'm not saying it's actually super likely, but what if gobble actually isn't cult like he's saying but is scum or has never been cult at all and is pulling some weird shit, we lynch him first because I can confirm that cult is entirely gone. We don't know if cult has another way to grow right? And we've been doing a fuckton of RBing through the night which sure, has been preventing kills, but maybe it has been stopping cult growth? I don't know, I've never played with a cult before. Let me at least confirm that we have 0 cult after that lynch before you lynch me. That's all I'm saying. My one and only purpose has been keeping an eye on cult numbers, if you kill me and it turns out there is some way for cult to grow again, how will we know that that has happened? At least let cult hit zero, then if you must confirm that I haven't been lying, lynch me after.

[Pine]

That’s fair. I’m getting really tired of Gobble’s abusive behavior anyway.

VOTE: Gobble

[gobbledygook]

VOTE: Gobble

I really didn’t want to play like this, but y’all have been a bunch of lemmings the last few days. Reason and logic were only getting me so far. At least after today you’ll get some nice Turkey Stew!

[Pine]

Reason and logic do not necessitate being a colossal asshole about it

[gobbledygook]

I would like the town to win. It just seems I would like town to win more than some townies would like the town to win ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[gobbledygook]

Cephrir all I want is an engraving of my avatar in your bar in cobble when this is all said and done

[EspressoPatronum]

Cephrir all I want is an engraving of my avatar in your bar in cobble when this is all said and done

We'll make this happen. What do you want the engraving to say?

VOTE: gobble

[EspressoPatronum]

It's simple: we lynch gobble, xofelf, Elements and Miss Lynch

I think ML is the last scum.

I say we lynch gobble --> ML --> Elements

[EspressoPatronum]

Wait no. I think we already lost if Cult has a backup recruiter?

You're probably right. We would also know at this point for two reasons: 1) the flavour would likely mention it, and 2) cult recruits get vanillaized.

On the vanillaized point, any of these people being culted wod have made our last night actions unsuccessful:
- KA
- you (Pine)
- RCE
- Cephrir
- me (once I use my ability from gobble's lynch)

“Bungle did this”

[gobbledygook]

Or “Saltiest Turkey Stew”

[EspressoPatronum]

After the A50 flip, I read up more about Bruthazmus in Rise of the Runelords. He seems to be the last of the 5 bandits associated with Nualia Tobyn's attack on Standpoint (ie. Cobble).

That doesn't necessarily mean that we caught all the scum, it just suggests that the remaining scum won't be bandits. I'm not sure how useful this knowledge will be other than to assist in interpreting RCE's letters in the future.

I also read a concerning number of plot points throughout the Rise of the Runelords that focused on evil characters trying to summon armies of the dead. I would like to confirm that Elements isn't one of those characters, so we should have RCE write a letter about him asap.

@Elements what's your character's name? I can't remember if you've said it already.

Quality analysis

[Pine]

Five bandits matches the number of Runelord flips we’ve seen.

Eliminate Gobble, then we work on the remaining third party role(s)

Non-Town feel free to white flag at any time

[EspressoPatronum]

Azar Kull didn't come up in my lore search through Rise of the Runelords.... but neither did the Yeth Hounds (Gamma Emerald), so I'm not betting too much on his nonpresence clearing him from being evil.

[EspressoPatronum]

I'm not feeling the xofelf paranoia. However, if you all still want to pursue it in the future, it's better to have UT check her, then lynch UT. You get the same information as lynching xofelf + the added information of clearing/unclearing all UT's checks.

[EspressoPatronum]

I propose:
- Pine motivates KA
- KA JKs ML and PB
- Ceph blocks Elements
- RCE writes a message about Elements and sends it to me/PB
- UT checks xofelf
- Elements holsters (but will probably get blocked)

This worked well last night. Let's continue to use it.
