The Wolf Among Us Mafia [Dawn Of The Ninth Day][GAME OVER!]

[Strange]

I'll choose 11

 

[Lycanthropy]

Okay, for some reason I'm really suspicious. Bac, seriously. What makes you so convinced? Because really, you can't be more wrong. Basically all you base it on is here below.

The first comment is a wishy-washy stance on Caps yet the wording kind of throws shade on Caps at the same time despite it being an "either way" stance. The reason for the Johnny vote sounds fake. (could be overthinking this though)

My point being that we shouldn't act too quickly. A wrong read doesn't necessary mean scum, I've seen the death of two innocent individuals happen too often because of that.

I don't know about you, but Lycan seems like a pretty obvious scum to me. Compared to Kendy who can use his newbie status as an excuse for sheeping, Lycan doesn't have a single reason to behave the way he is behaving, and he doesn't usually act like a sheep.

Also, innocents that don't know what's going on scumread, they don't sheep. Especially more experienced players. After reading through more closely, I'd say Lycan would be safer than Jappo or Kendy. Just my thoughts.

Aha, but I did try to scumread, the person that looked the most suspicious to me at that point just happened to be the person bandwagoned on. I didn't hop along just because or out of laziness, but because it matched my suspicions. Apparently they were wrong though...

 

[TheCapsFan]

Party time~ :D

[CHOOSE]: 12 if it's not already chosen, if it is then 23

You shut up about mafia 102!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, chill out. That's rather harsh now, hm?

CapsFan didn't really just claim Greenleaf, a Crooked Crew member, did he... That's legitimately the only "leaf" related role, is it not?

I may be daft, but I'm not that stupid. To be honest, I didn't know that there was a Greenleaf role until you mentioned it. :)

Maybe Holly? idk

...AND WE HAVE A WINNER, LADIES AND GENTS.

Holly, maybe? The one that corresponds the most would be Aunty Greenleaf, but I don't think he would soft a mafia role, lol. I mean she can win with town, but I don't think his teammates would take too kindly to him outing like this for a chance to betray them if that's the case.

edit: ok well double-ninja'd

This. You guys caught all my obvious hints I think, also I did softclaim to have a passive role in my first post of the game:

despite my opening statement, I'm more passive than aggressive

There was exactly a 50/50 chance that the mirror would respond as we haven't been told specifically when it would reset so we could use it. You might not have expected a response, but by the looks of this thread many people still agreed it would be worth it to ask the mirror a question.

Do you think we should stop even trying to use it until Bloody Mary is out of the picture?

Oooh, I don't like the bolded part of this post. To me it reads like you want to prevent the town for getting information.

 

[Who's Kiyo?]

FLETCH HIT THIS POLAR BEAR UP WITH SOMETHING HARD

Naku may have some good points on how Bloody Mary operates, since I was super confused why the mirror question didn't work. He's a good player, and I've always liked Naku.

Anyway, [CHOOSE] 20

Also Omicron and Superjolt are reading mad scum to me.​

 

[Nakuzami]

...AND WE HAVE A WINNER, LADIES AND GENTS.

Tbh I thought you meant TJ, since he's a treestump role.

Either way, TJ and Holly need to be targeted to be useful. But you just revealed a bit prematurely too . . . oops.

 

[jdthebud]

Also Omicron and Superjolt are reading mad scum to me.

Explain this please. Did you learn nothing from the Championships?

 

[Who's Kiyo?]

Explain this please.

I would, but there's a pretty ribbon around my neck preventing me from disclosing the full extent as to why, since some of the reasons are rooted in stuff that's totes meta and I can't talk about. If I or somebody can get it off my neck, I'll be happy to elaborate.

I'll recommend that you look at how superjolt responds to questions; since I think I can say that without my head falling off.

Did you learn nothing from the Championships?

Maybe. I didn't expect to have to claim so soon, but I don't really have anything to lose, either. Mafia can't kill me, because Grendel is still alive, bless his heart. Even if they kill Grendel, there's really no point in killing me, as I'm just part bulletproof. There's nothing extra to my role. No one's CC'd me yet, so my claim is legitimate. And no one will, because the mafia know I'm telling the truth.

 

[Nakuzami]

But if the mafia targeted you before successfully killing Grendel

You would have acted as a granny and killed some of them

But uh, good luck with that now

 

[jdthebud]

Sorry for the wall post guys, I delayed some of my planned responses until now.

I like this post and pretty much agree, not completely sold on town-CapsFan though, I'd like to see more from him

jd thoughts on jappo?

jappo reads town to me, although it's clear he's a little bit lost (in a different way then kendrys). If he was mafia, I wonder if he would act the same way as he could presumably ask his teammates questions. Right now I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on that, it's not a strong read by any means.

Lycan just acted the same way in Happily Never After and was the cop. I really don't get scumreads from him.

I'll [AREST]No one for today.

This is interesting. Well, who do you think might be scum then?

General question to all: how does Omicron normally play? Are they one to go with the flow when they are town?

-snip-

Gonna poke around a bit and iso Lycan and Omicron before phase ends real quick. I can see why in this specific situation a no-lynch might be relatively kind of okay, though my feelings about no lynch overall still stand...

From my experience Omicron isn't an aggressive player no matter his alignment, so it's probably not really alignment indicative. Were you able to do those ISOs on Omi and Lycan? As you are pretty much confirmed town now your thoughts are relevant.

Well a lot has happened and I've been mentioned a fair bit so I'll reply to what I can :)

Thanks for bringing me up, you have given me loads to reply to! :D

-Insert Thank you gif here-
Yes! this is my first game, I'm still learning the ropes, but trying to contribute where I can, I didn't even know mafia existed before joining PC, so sorry about my inexperience! (I have played TWAU a few times though which is helping a lot). I came up with the last riddle everyone is using at the moment for the mirror so I am trying :D

Awwwh a nice guy? If that's the impression you have of me so far then thanks <3 I wouldn't think about the championships when it comes to me though this is my first game ;)

IMO my plays haven't really been safe, I've been using my opinions and trying to follow what's been going on (I've already made mistakes)

Sheeping? :( I'm trying hard not to, but when experienced players are coming up with good ideas why would a noobie like me oppose them if I agree? I did change my vote rather quick for Johnny, but he straight came out and told us who he was, seems like the right decision to me.

I'm not saying to give me the benefit of the doubt! definitely not, anyone should be on your radar who's roles you don't know!

no, I've never played, the guys in UGSC introduced me to EM a few days ago so I've played that maybe 3 times?

Zehn! :( I don't want to die so fast!

This! I honestly don't understand why we didn't get an answer... thoughts peeps?

I like this post. Overall town vibe from his responses. He's explaining the reasoning behind his actions, which is nice to see.

Kendy, what scumreads do you have so far? Even slight ones are fine - it will generate discussion.

As I said, Mary was watching. The Mirror will not answer if Mary is watching. That's why I didn't expect a response today, and lo and behold, none came.

Is this a game mechanic? Because I don't see anything in the OP about this...

I would, but there's a pretty ribbon around my neck preventing me from disclosing the full extent as to why, since some of the reasons are rooted in stuff that's totes meta and I can't talk about. If I or somebody can get it off my neck, I'll be happy to elaborate.

How do we get the ribbon off (assuming not Vivian related)?

Sorry for the reminder.

But if the mafia targeted you before successfully killing Grendel

You would have acted as a granny and killed some of them

But uh, good luck with that now

I don't think he's a granny, I think he just won't die.

 

[Desinishon]

Wat.

Let's have it your way, Desi, and suppose I am scum. Why would the mafia be panicked at this point of the game? They have killed the doc, Vivian slipped through as the mirror didn't give us anything at all, Bigby is outed so Mary is technically immortal and they know most of the important roles after all these reveals. Why would I panic? What benefit would I have by trying to pick a mafia lead?

Regarding the loophole thing, I only mentioned it because I like to play fair. Outing info you were not supposed to out is cheating, even in the form of a like and I'm sure Nimsy would notice it anyway. I'm also wondering why didn't I mention this in my mafia chat... Oh yes, it's because I don't have one.

Speaking of mafia, you can win with mafia, can't you? What a better way of helping them than throwing suspicion on someone before the day even begins.

Man you got your answer. Nothing happened to me.

And why would you panic because you know it's just N3. I can't say anymore.

 

[Omicron]

My townread of Lycan comes from him acting the same way as he has this game while being a cop in Happily Never After. I could definitely be wrong, but I still townread him. Many people voted to arrest no one besides me and I'm the one people are sussing out because I gave reasoning for it? Ok.

 

[Nakuzami]

I'm not repeating myself about the mirror, but

Grendel This son of cane works at "the Trip Trap" with Holly. He is extremely loyal to Holly and will kill anyone who tries to hurt her. If Holly happens to be lynched, he will kill the hammer vote; if she is shot or stabbed, he will kill the perpetrator and hide himself away (gaining immunity to lynches). If anyone targets him (non-killing abilities or otherwise) after Holly dies, they will be killed.

I can't imagine that the mafia would be immune to this.

 

[Omicron]

This is interesting. Well, who do you think might be scum then?

Kaneki's most memorable interjection in the game has been to ask someone to shut up about another game. It feels like he is laying low and avoiding discussing the game. That feels scummy to me.

Aside from that, something about Klippy's posts feels off. It might be him just being busy, though. I can't tell exactly what it is. Need to reread them more carefully.

 

[Klippy]

Ya'll rude.

But seriously: It's been hard to post a ton and get really deep into the game unfortunately. I've been doing 8 hour work days and then other things in the evening, but I have a three day weekend so I can hopefully get caught up on anything I've missed. I won't give who I'm suspicious of until I fully catch up, but a few names dropped have also pinged my suspicion-meter.

 

[Omicron]

I haven't sussed Klippy. As I said, something just feels off and I'm not sure what it is.

 

[jdthebud]

Whoops forgot about that part. Not a traditional granny, but effectively the same thing yeah. Never mind.

Yeah I know, I have the same problem. Even went on PC in my lunchbreak to check if anything happened ;)

 

[kendypls]

Oooh, I don't like the bolded part of this post. To me it reads like you want to prevent the town for getting information.

This is a far reach at best, clearly I was trying to clarify what Nakuzami was implying, to which they replied with the answer I was looking for, that we SHOULD use the mirror!

Kendy, what scumreads do you have so far? Even slight ones are fine - it will generate discussion.

Why thank you! :)

It may be cos I'm new and every time I've had an idea they've had something to say about it but.
I don't like the tone of Nakuzami's posts, sarcasm and speculating on things that they aren't sure of, with what sounds like a degree of certainty, just seems like a easy way to try and throw people off. (I didn't really want to say this as I'm very unsure and didn't want to pin anyone yet, but if I had to choose, that would be my answer.)

I can't see anything glaringly obvious. :(

who are you thinking jd?

Is this a game mechanic? Because I don't see anything in the OP about this...

not really, here is how bloody mary affects the mirror in game (Wiki) :

Spoiler:

the finally-recovered missing shard from the Magic Mirror has difficulty rejoining with the other pieces since it had been in contact with Bloody Mary. In addition to this, Mary is capable of detecting the Mirror watching her and able to pierce off its vision. The mirror also stated that it felt a painful sting upon its vision being broken off

 

[kendypls]

my reasoning was more the 'speculating on things that they aren't sure of, with what sounds like a degree of certainty'
I was asked what I thought, and that's what I think :P
