Swords and Sorcery Mafia Without the Swords [Concluded]

[Csargo]

It kinda is though.

[Choxorn]

I actually think that looks good for Csargo, I can't imagine both Visor and Csargo would stay away from the next highest lynch if they were both scum. Csargo even did vote for Sooh and then switched to atheotes, which really doesn't seem to make sense if he was Visor's last teammate.

On the other hand, the tally was 3 Visor, 2 Sooh, 1 Lewwyn (that would be Visor's vote) when he made his final post of the day, so he might have just been hoping that the town would go after Sooh and his teammate wouldn't have to save him. There were almost 20 hours left in the day when he left, but the tally didn't change until several hours after he made his final post. Even so, I'm really surprised he couldn't find time to show up at EoD and save himself.

Arakhor put Visor and Sooh into a tie late and then Sooh self-pres'd to break the tie, which looks good for Arakhor, bussing doesn't really make much sense in that spot.

[Renata]

True story, GH has discussed protecting me so maybe he dies and has more time to prepare his game. I've considered protecting him because I'm such a wimp that part of me wants to get out while the gettin's good. :p

Good luck mafia figuring out what we actually do.

[Zack]

Well you just spelled it out.

Also have the mafia even killed anyone?

[Renata]

Apparently not, though Sooh's broken vest would suggest that they did take at least one shot -- probably at Choxorn and redirected, maybe at her.

You told me you wouldn't say anything if I didn't!

[Renata]

Oops ...


I've betrayed my mason buddy. I feel terrible.

[Arakhor]

Well, that was exciting. Sooh was being scummy without actually having been corrupted.

[Renata]

My brain didn't quite revolve all the way around to the fact that if she was killing atheotes she probably wasn't making herself a godfather at the same time. Just as well.

[Winston Hughes]

Snerk looks bad from every angle.

Tone is within his scum meta.

Off wagon D1 and absent eod.

Awkward progression of Visor reads D2, and stayed on the Sooh wagon.

Blocked N2 when there was no scum kill.

Sooh's conviction he was scum over the N1 shenanigans (of which she was so suspicious that she shot Atheotes, even though his flipping town would be damning for her).

[Renata]

If you can show the awkward progression that'd be cool.

[Winston Hughes]

Didn't like that he argued for disregarding Sooh and Atheotes as lynch candidates today. So he essentially traded places with Winston for a place among my tier two suspects.

Like there's nothing else scummy about Visor at this point.

[Renata]

So going for the mechanical over the meaningful? Could be.

[Winston Hughes]

Feels like acknowledging Visor's a real suspect for the sake of appearances.

I'm with you, Snerk is definitely the most likely scum at this point, from the awkward reads, to being off-wagon day 1 and voting Sooh day 2, to his weird night actions... Just everything about him screams "I'm a scumbag"

[Lewwyn]

Fine. I had a BPV from the start of the game. After N1 I was told it was shattered. Then Snerk comes and tells everyone his action on me failed.

So I saved Choxorn with the redirect maybe? heh.

100% agree.

[Lewwyn]

Right then. @Lewwyn, sound off: jail Csargo?

Renata and GH, Snerk is up to you. Snerk, sort it with them.

Arakhor could use a scan if anyone has one.

Sure I'll jail Csargo. I think scum is more likely Snerk, but if others are taking care of that?

[Montmorency]

In principle, I agree that Csargo doesn't look awful and Arakhor looks decent (D2 events tone and mechanically better for him than Csargo, per Choxorn's quotes), but since this is endgame I do believe Csargo should be blocked to whittle things down.

Arakhor, I think it's just good sense that a scan here would be helpful. He wouldn't be first for the lynch tomorrow (and rightly so), so more information earlier is good insurance. I don't know who if anyone can accomplish this, so I'll leave it up to the silent majority.

I agree that Snerk looks worst of everyone, and encourage anyone not targeting Csargo or Arakhor to do whatever they think they need to do to take out Snerk. I suspect that if both Snerk and Csargo are blocked, we don't even need to worry about kills, so deploy those jailings wisely. Few would shed tears if Snerk were to turn up dead, and if he uses self-protection then he isn't casting lynchproof for tomorrow. It should work out.

Personally, as I said I will be tracking. I said I would track Lewwyn, but there are a couple of good candidates for track seeing as we definitely have only one mafia scum left.

These are the dispositions for tonight.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Kind of feel bad for Sooh. She got a great role and then RL plus game circumstances didn't really allow her to have fun with it. Always a punch in the gut when that happens.

[Jabbz]

Night three ends in

[Renata]

GL all.

[Choxorn]

Revealing my night action now in case I'm too dead to tell you about it in a few minutes: I Jailblocked Snerk.

[Jabbz]

Deadline. No posting until resolution.

[Jabbz]

There will be a momentary delay. Expect at least 10-15m

As your third night together comes to a close, each mage feels more relaxed than they had since this ordeal started. Everyone had lost friends. Some were lost to death. Some were lost to the knowledge that the image they presented was not their true self. Some were lost to corruption. Still, when the body is ill, that illness must be excised, and sometimes healthy flesh was the cost. Confident that they had it figured out the mages had laid plans for who would contain whom, and all expected to arise in the morning.

They were right. For the first time since the death of the Archmage, the night passed largely uneventfully. Despite the general confidence surrounding their survival, all of the mages seemed surprised when they once again convened in the courtyard that morning.

There were no deaths.

Day four has not yet started. No posting until all PM’s are sent and I post acknowledging the game has resumed.

[Choxorn]

Vote: Snerk

Did anyone else jailkeep anybody?

A wave of residual magics left over from the ritual blasts Choxorn, rendering him mute.


Choxorn is mute for

Choxorn's vote on post #1286 does not count.

[Renata]

Sorry Choxorn. :)

My spell went fizz, probably because of Choxorn's jailkeep.

[Zack]

I jailed PLAYER X.

[Snerk]

What's the matter Choxy baby, cat got your tongue?
