On the note, you would want Sasaki dead according to what you would say, also you just turned any GF people against you.
So no wins co-operating you, it would be far simpler killing you off than trying to find half a town full of GF people.

All I can do is sigh and shake my head at the notion that I obviously must be Tincow's mafia partner. Because this is absolutely how I behave as mafia, which is risk my head to save my caught-by-investigator mafia partner, so I'll get scanned tonight and lynched as well tomorrow.
In about 5 minutes I have a huge bandwagon on my roof, of course I react. ATPG you double-triple cross so many times it's hard to keep track of what 'your tactic' is. But yes you should be scanned.

Nope, it's an ability called Overdrive. The description is: "If killed or lynched, your killer or a player who voted for you will die, too." Obviously some of you will not believe this, but the WIFOM it causes by revealing it is amusing to me, particularly in a game with so many Survivalists.

If you read / remembered about the past two Council of Villan's games, the Mafia all had this ability, or at least they did in the first one. Where every time a mafia was lynched, the mafia would kill one of the people that voted for them. Since this is the next installment of that series...

After TC is both investigated and admitted scum, I don't see a reason for a mega-wagon on TC, but I also don't see the point of placing more votes on Glenn or Nictel either.
I wouldn't risk a double lynch here, even if Nictel is acting the way he is. A tie can easily be broken last minute.
Every good principle has exceptions; here, there really doesn't seem to be a need for further votes on anyone but Tincow. So, explain to me the logic.

I too was going to vote Tincow, but in the interest of not causing an overwhelming bandwagon, I'll just keep abstaining. Everything else is too confusing and I don't have time to analize all this to try to find someone who looks guilty. And no, I won't follow you, whoever you are, in voting X other person because I just don't see much value in all those other cases yet. Maybe those people are worth watching, but lets lynch tincow now, and watch those people.
With this lynch, whether tincow is mafia or not, we are going to get a lot of information for sure.

Samus is mafia, derp. Samus opposes Dark Samus, Dark Samus being Anti-GF and Anti-Samus, and Samus being Anti-IDFH and Anti-Dark Samus. The town, when not aligned with either Samus or Dark Samus, is aligned with each other. All GF alignment and IDFH alignment indicate is which mafia family can recruit you, especially if you are a survivalist since you'll become more important as the game progresses.
This is fact, stop trying to refute it, or you might reveal whom your benefactors are.

Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
For those of you who think Samus is somehow pro-town, Samus killed robbiecon last night. Samus is the Hunter. Dark Samus is the Dark Hunter. They're clearly visible in the write-up. Samus killed GF last night because, like us, she had no intel on who belonged to which faction. Thus, she was forced to kill randomly and hit a GF through bad luck. Those kinds of blind attacks are exactly what we Phazon are trying to avoid when it comes to the IDFH. While it is too late for the IDFH to contact me secretly now, many did so before time expired. So, if you are an IDFH survivalist, there are others amongst you who know how to get in contact with me and inform me of your alignment. If you want to stay alive, do make an attempt to locate other IDFH players and share information with them. Obviously, be cautious who you trust, as the GF are not going to be happy about this.

Because Samus is NOT IDFH aligned nor can she recruit from them. Samus is nominally GF aligned, and can recruit from the survivalists among the GF. TC hasn't lied, because he hasn't had too - it's in his best interests that the town fight amongst themselves trying to prevent Dark Samus from recruiting heavily from the IDFH now that Dark Samus has several contacts within the IDFH. Those of the IDFH who can be recruited, will be, those who can't and those who have yet to be act as a good distraction.
TC and his faction are in a very strong position so long as they recieved a large number of contacts. A lot of IDFH will have likely contacted TC just so they can jump ship if it starts to sink and will try to remain town up until then.

Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
It seems clear that my feelings about the detective result were correct--that there is a nerfed ability that will not catch mafia. But beskar had a more powerful investigation. That gives him good odds of being the counterpart to tincow (which is basically confirmed to be in the game). Other possibility is that he is a protown investigator. In either case it's good to start with a small wagon on him tomorrow.

Prevote: Beskar
Maybe I missed something. but where the heck are you getting these allegations?

Re: [Council of Villains] A State of Corruption [In play]
Day 2
It had been another long day on the GFS Olympus. There was much arguing and accusation, and the crew had become even more factionalized between the GF and the IDFH. But in the end, the voting had come to a clear resolution. This time Captain Falcon stepped forward to tally the votes.
When he had finished, a grimace crossed his face. He turned to the assembled crew to read the result.
“Today, you have decided that the impostor among is… the IDFH warrior Isaac, of the Golden Sun dimension. He is accused of being, in reality, the missing IDFH hero Cloud Strife, corrupted by the influence of the Dark Hunter.”
Isaac stepped forward solemnly and silently. The IDFH was in an uproar. They began shouting and protesting vigorously against the accusations against one of their own.
“WHAT? Just because he looks like Cloud, now he’s accused of BEING Cloud? This is ridiculous!”
Captain Falcon tried in earnest to calm down his own comrades.
“Quiet! A vote is a vote. This is what we agreed to do. We did it for great justice!”
He then turned to the suspect.
“Now, Isaac. What do you have to say for yourself?”
“…”
“Come on! Defend yourself. Show me your case!”
“…”
Captain Falcon soon realized that Isaac was one of those silent RPG heroes and really didn’t speak a whole lot. He was at a loss for what to do… perhaps this was an admission by non-denial.
“Alright then. Here’s what we’re going to do. I want Isaac locked up in the Quarantine Bay for the rest of this trip.”
Suddenly, a pale-faced GF officer dressed in a lab coat stood up.
“I… uhhh… I don’t think that’s a very good idea.”
Falcon gave the Quarantine Officer a piercing glare from behind his visor.
“That wasn’t a question. Do it now.”
The GF Quarantine Officer and a few marines brought Isaac down to the Quarantine Bay, near the bottom hull of the ship. The Officer dismissed the soldiers before they could see the blue glow emanating from behind the cold steel door. The Officer unlocked and opened the door, and Isaac walked willingly inside. Then the door was carefully locked and sealed behind him.
The Quarantine Officer proceeded to the Observation room, where he was provided a full view of the quarantined chamber through a large, ten inch thick glass window.
Inside the chamber stood Isaac, and he was surrounded on all sides by a massive quantity of pure Phazon ore. This was what he had been so reluctant to place Isaac in quarantine for.
Secretly, GF High Command had stored away tons of Phazon ore on the Olympus, for the purpose of experimentation and development of new bioweapons. The IDFH was completely unaware of the presence of such material, and most GF officials did not even know of its existence. If the IDFH found out about it, they would no doubt want it for themselves.
The Quarantine Officer continued to watch Isaac intently, and soon he began to notice a change in his usually calm demeanor. He began to twitch, and it soon became clear that the massive amount of Phazon around him made it difficult to mask his true feelings. The disguise faded away from Isaac and his true identity was revealed.
Cloud Strife, corrupted by the Phazon, was now trying absorb it all for himself. Frantic, the Quarantine Officer sent security mechs into the chamber to neutralize him, but he destroyed them all with a quick slash from his massive Buster Sword. Cloud then looked straight at the officer with a wicked grin on his face.
He shot at high speed straight through the plate glass, and proceeded to impale the Officer on his sword, cackling maniacally as he did so. But Cloud did not manage to kill the Officer before he pressed the red emergency button. Sirens were already blaring, and within seconds Captain Falcon and the majority of the crew had arrived, but were cautious of getting too close.
Falcon marched right up to Cloud, who swung his blade viciously. The Captain managed to dodge the first two swings, and then caught the blade in his hands on the third. He wrenched the Buster Sword out of Cloud’s grip and tossed it to the side, proceeding to bury Cloud in a flurry of punches. While Cloud was stunned from the attack, he brought back his fist in preparation for another attack.
“FALCON…”
Flames surrounded the Captain, and his fist shot forward.
“PAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUNNNNCCHHH!”
The Corrupted warrior was disintegrated into raw Phazon just from the power of the attack.
Captain Falcon looked back at his IDFH warriors in triumph.
“Awww yeah! We got one of them!”
But the IDFH was in staring in awe at the glowing blue mass behind him.
Night actions please. This phase ends 24 hours from now, approximately 8:00 PM EST.

A secret cache of Phazon?
What a treat this would be for the Space Pirates if they found out!

There is no hard evidence for an investigator, at all. Beskar, randomly trusted, DAY 2, with no evidence as to why he was trusted. There wasn't a proceeding night for Beskar to be investigated, so no way the supposed investigator could have found Beskar to be clean.
The evidence as it stands now points to Beskar being part of a larger organization, which is either Samus or Dark Samus. Samus would have had nothing to gain from publicly announcing TC as an antagonist when they could have done it free of publicity during the night - no one could have contacted TC from the IDFH, which means no people they can magically recruit from without investigating to find out if they can recruit them in the first place.
It's far more likely that Beskar is working with Dark Samus, likely one of the original members, and they simply outed TC early because -
1) TC loses nothing really, he'll still win with Dark Samus and can act as a known and very eloquent mafioso.
2) TC is able to get into contact with IDFH survivalists, getting past the need to investigate them first. Tonight, they will replace TC and be at full strength.
3) Beskar is apparently opposed to TC and may have connections with Samus, meaning hopeful GF survivalists will contact Beskar and then get killed before they are recruited and become more powerful.
It's simple and elegant really, and a wonderful gamble.

You really think that those saddled with "survivalist", in which if they die, they do not win, will sit there and NOT take a chance at victory regardless of whether or not they die? What about all the people who want to become a mafioso anyway?

The first to sign up as a reserve was Kagemusha, so he gets the first shot at it. After that I go down the list. Dead townie players can PM me if they would like to be on the reserve list; though activity is currently pretty good so I don't know that I'll have to make too many replacements.

Surely you could just be around for a few minutes to get a feel of the game. I know I am going to be in a similar situation where I am extremely busy with work, but thankfully we get a co-worker back from holidays, which will help out greatly. Thankfully today is a public holiday here.

Betting Samus and Dark Samus were not in the Tincow wagon at the end.
It was a long shot but still too much to risk.
