Death Note Mafia [Game Over]

[Seth Rollins]

Hmm...Mana has a point. What he said makes sense. The day/night post actually suggests Kira is not a RPT regular. "A bit too theatrical for him"

However! The theater hint may not even be a hint at all. I have no idea what to do.

I'll investigate everything that happened till now and make a list of suspects.

 

[Sopheria]

Wait, we're still going after Mana? I really don't think there's much of a case against him. The theatrical hint doesn't seem to incriminate him, for all the reasons already stated. We should really be focused on all the clues we were given in the last phase post. We received a lot of them, and they could lead us in the right direction if we put our heads together.

What about Bac? Yourself and many others voted for him over Absol in the previous day phase?

Looking back, Gunner also 'had a feeling' about Netto. She's acting dangerously, whether intentional or not. Since nobody else is willing to throw the first stone I guess I will.

[Nimsy]

Spoiler:

This is a list of how many people are in each faction (based on narration)

Idealists: 5(role) 4(converted citizens)
Justices: 5(role)7 (converted citizens)
Non-affiliated citizens: 5?
Yotsuba: ???

First up we know that both roles from the Yotsuba are dead/arrested, but I'm not entirely sure how many people they have requited, it may be as much as four. We also know that someone pledged to the justices and gained a new ability known as "gossip".

In regard to the three men and the woman, four people have been aligned each night so I'm assuming they're following that pattern so three supporters and one follower were recruited. The genders may or may not be literal.

I haven't really been around enough to understand the hints at the people in the underground so I'll put down [ARREST] Mana since those that have seniority on me have better grounding.

But my vote is liable to change, and I still think Jupiter is suspicious.

 

[Mana1]

Are you serious. If I role reveal we could honestly be screwed. You lot did the same to Near and now this.

There is a chance that you're telling the truth, try arguing your case more and try not to reveal(since two people already have and Soichiro can only protect two).

We still have a little over 24 hours until the night phase, and I did say my vote is liable to change.

 

[Mana1]

ive already said it enough tbh.

[Arrest] Bacteriophage

 

[Nimsy]

GUYS MY BRAIN IS WORKING GOOD (I think)

"Yep, I got his name. No objections this time," she said, giggling.

this is an obvious reference to Deceptio (Maybe Seth)

----
Why would they investigate Deceptio? because L even said it:

This newcomer was . . . interesting. Surely Kira had taken note of him as well. His arrival was certainly making waves, and perhaps it would spur the regular citizens into action.

He was hot on their trail and causing issues so of course they would want him taken out ASAP. So Misa investigated him to make sure it was a surefire kill.

Even if it was referring to Seth, both of them voted for the same person yesterday.

And that person is Bacteriophage.

So [ARREST] Bacteriophage


(edit: ugh I got ninja'd >.<)

 

[Salzorrah]

actually thats a good analysis... i'll switch to bac since I think it's better than the Manassumption I did awhile ago :P

[arrest] Bacteriophage

 

[Bidoof FTW]

Ay Nimsy

 

[Sopheria]

Nimsy is making sense. But I wonder if going after Bacteriophage is such a good idea? According to the phase post, we have someone who aligned themselves with the Justice and gained a new inspection ability. Between them and L, one of them could inspect Bac tomorrow night, and maybe the phase post will reveal the result? It's worth a shot, at least.

 

[Nimsy]

Lovely little bandwagon we have here ._.

I must encourage you to not vote for me. This is not a practical lynch. I am just a normal, unaligned citizen.

(Such a sad attempt at saving myself, but I really don't have much to say)

Ace Attorneys, help me!

Well, if you are telling the truth (which is unlikely). We aren't losing much and you could be aligned to the idealists at a later time.

So even if we're wrong it's not much of a loss.

[ARREST] Bacteriophage

In games like this, you never know who anyone is until it's too late, really. Or if there's some help. Which I don't really expect it to last.

[Seth Rollins]

After reading through the pages, I think I find two people suspicious:

Twiggy: Keeps hopping in bandwagons. Klippy, Netto, Absol. He did change his vote to Gio, that clears him a bit, but it may have been to make himself look innocent.
Bacteriophage: Voted for Klippy even after he role revealed. He said it was because he was afraid of making another "mistake". I think it's a lie, he could have voted for either Absol and Gio. He's our best bet right now.

I will...stick to what I did yesterday and

[ARREST] Bacteriophage

Okay, so Gio,Absol and Bac are the ones who hopped in the Klippywagon. We lynched Gio, he was an Idealist. We also lynched Absol, she was Arayoshi. Now who will Bacteriophage be?

 

[Mana1]

[kill] Bacteriophage

Sorry Bac, but if you're telling the truth the worst outcome is you're an unaligned citizen.

 

[Lycanthropy]

Nimsy is making sense. But I wonder if going after Bacteriophage is such a good idea? According to the phase post, we have someone who aligned themselves with the Justice and gained a new inspection ability. Between them and L, one of them could inspect Bac tomorrow night, and maybe the phase post will reveal the result? It's worth a shot, at least.

We don't know the powers of this inspection ability. It's stated aligning to on of the factions just gives you a minor role, a full cop role doesn't seem a minor role to me.

Anyway, what Nimsy pointed out seems to make sense, so:
[KILL] Bacteriophage

 

[Candy]

God I hate it when internet decides to disconnect on you for nearly the whole day. @_@

Anyway, from what I've read, what Nimsy and a few other people said makes sense so I'll go for [ARREST] Bacteriophage.

Spoiler:

"Mr. Ceptio... you are called to the court room today... are you... I mean..."

I can't go there now.

"But... sir... what about Kira?"

Don't call me sir anymore... I'm not your boss. I quit. I failed an innocent client and now? They're a sitting duck for Kira whenever he feels the need to remove them... if he EVER feels the need to remove them. This is my fault... I should have defended her... I should have saved her.

I'm done with the attorney life. I'm finished.

"So you'll just let them die then?"

What else can I do? I see now that I'm not good enough to save them. I read through the evidence, Kira probably has my information now. It's only a matter of time - OW! What-what was that for?!

"You'll throw your life away and let your clients down because of ONE mistake?! Is life really so meaningless to you?! Are you that selfish that you'll let your client down and do NOTHING to make up for that?!"

I-I... you're right.

Even if it kills me anyway. I've got to defend my clients.

It's my duty... as an attorney.

*The doors to the courtroom burst open and a rather plainly dressed man walks inside quickly.*​

Spoiler:

It's all well and good to arrest Bac, I follow Nimsy's line of thought on this matter very closely and I am in complete agreement with the motion to lynch Bac. I don't consider it a bandwagon either since there have been no developments since yesterday regarding said lynch outside of what Nimsy herself has said to incriminate him further.

But what we're missing here is something much more important than simple killing and arresting.

We need protection. Our operation is heavily compromised and we're going to need to make some dangerous choices.

Now let me tell you exactly what's wrong with this situation.

I guess it's my fault for not getting here sooner to back up your points on the matter. But Bard you really should not have revealed your role. In fact from what I've seen you really had absolutely no reason to as not a single person here was disputing the idea of Aiber redirecting Ryuk. So when you say "better safe than sorry" you're very wrong.

In fact revealing your role, if that even is your role, would grant you not a lick of safety and instead plunge you into danger.

Unless of course you were lying. Now listen buddy I'm not saying I believe this yet but for the sake of argument I think I'm going to run through the potential result that leads to you being a filthy idealist and a criminal I'd like to stomp out. Now you see... in reality there is a way doing what you're doing could be classified as safe. If you were an idealist then revealing would grant you plenty of safety... and let me explain why.

Imagine a nice plan cooking up in that worthless runt Kira's headquarters. Misa goes to investigate the Ace Attorney... and they decide they want to have some more integration with the populace, they want to build up trust with one of their members. So they jump for a win-win-win situation that presents itself on a silver platter.

Send Ryuk after Higuchi... and have Kira kill Higuchi on that same night. You eliminate the third party alright and that's a plus for everyone. But how does this benefit the idealists? Simple, the following day one of their members decides to make a claim.

"I'm Aiber and I redirected Ryuk."

Two things can happen as a result of this.

1: The real Aiber counter claims you... and Kira is easily able to kill him to remove the issue.

2: Nobody counter claims you at all out of fear and you gain a nice bit of trust and most likely take up one of Sochiro's protection slots for the night.

Now I hear you saying to me already. "Mr. Ceptio there's a problem with option two. It will eventually get me caught and killed." Well here's the thing.

As a member of the elitists you'll always be able to work out exactly whom Aiber redirected... and you can claim that it was your doing so long as the real Aiber is laying low. The moment the true Aiber reveals himself?

Well then the Idealists get themselves a nice kill and a large problem is removed from their plans. Right?

Once again. I'm not going straight for this presumption. But it all seems a little too coincidental and a little too perfectly fitting in my book.

Especially since for some reason you consider yourself "safe" after putting yourself in immediate danger to the mafia by revealing your role. Don't get me wrong Bard, I'm all for believing you. So in order to make sure this is all done pretty fairly... let's look at the facts of the matter.

Sochiro can protect two people. If you're telling the truth? Well then that makes three priority targets.

You, Klippy and I.

Why me? Because I'm a pretty sure bet for being a follower of L by this point. There's no point in hiding it when they've clearly investigated me. I'm the newcomer mentioned by L... I'm the "objection" maker targeted by Misa... you could argue that it was Seth and not me, but I think it's a much safer bet to assume that I was the target instead... and I think it's fair I let you know that there's more to my role than "just a simple lawyer" in all of this.

This means that they probably have intentions to kill me tonight.

So I say we play a game. All of us, Idealists, Justice and Civillian. Sochiro will pick two of the priority targets I mentioned, to protect tonight. He will pick them at random... meaning that the idealists have a one in three chance of killing a priority target depending on whom they pick. If you're telling the truth Bard... and since I know I'm telling the truth... I'll tell you now that if any one of us three dies? It means very bad thing for the justice.

So I think a random selection of two is the most fair... as it gives us the best chance at preservation we can get. It'll really throw the idealists for a loop... it'll make them think carefully about their choices.

It's all up to Sochiro now anyway. We'll see what they decide to go with.

As for todays arrest. Sorry Bac, nothing has really changed for your case. Looks like I'm sticking with my gut and the evidence presented both today and yesterday for this one.
