    Au contraire, I was and still am in favor of your proposal. If two people raise their yappers and claim dirt on each other, you kindly nuke them both off the face of space. And there is, in fact, reason to lynch you. You are neutral. Thus, you are not pro-town. Until more dirt is worked up on someone else, this leaves you as the best suspect.

    But its nice that you think you know me.

    Oh, and btw, its awfully irritating for you to whine about being lynched for your role name when you keep calling me palpatine. Keep it up.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    It was the irony of the situation.
    "Beskar has a scummy name, he must be the sith." - from Palpatine.


    Also, it is pretty obvious from the write-up that Fox and Wolf are working together to defeat the mafia.

    In otherwords, you clearly knew that the name meant nothing, except you kept pushing for my lynch based on that reason alone.
    You don't pay attention, do you.

    Where you miss the write-ups and posts which clearly say Town and Neutral (Cornerian and Vemons) are working together against the Big Bad and need eachother? Where in the Write-ups especially this last one, Wolf and Fox were clearly against the same enemy?

    I am the one paying attention and look at what me paying attention has done, netted us a mafia.

    I leave it at that.

    Pizza has stated the writeups do not contain clues. I take him at his word. I repeat: You claimed neutral. Which is not town. With no other clear choices, you are the best. Further, there's some questions I'll raise in the morning about your reveal that don't quite make sense, atm. Gonna get some sleep first.

    Sorry for not having the intimate knowledge of game structure that having "the best investigative" ability in the game imbues, as you put it. But honestly, I've been a bit more attentive to my officer role in Subo's game, and plus, this whole setup goes a bit over my head. Never played a Star Fox game. Plus, I am and probably will remain one of the world's worst vanilla townspeople.

    You volunteering to take over the reigns? The two former champions may get jealous. Then again, there is probably a third champion by now, I need to recheck the tally.

    That isn't accurate, as the write-ups clearly point to the killer (void portal, etc) and who was attacked. Also, the part where pizza mentions the town and neutral are working together against the big bad is in the game rules themselves. The "neutral" are just a 2nd town faction, but Pizza is mainly writing it all from the Cornerian angle.

    Also, if the write-ups are completely non-related, then how is it that it was Wolf that killed the Mafia? Which seemingly makes light my contributions in the phrase to get a mafia lynched.

    Sorry for not having the intimate knowledge of game structure that having "the best investigative" ability in the game imbues, as you put it.

    Understood. It is because of that "best investigative" ability is how I deduced that he is either Star Fox or the Mafia straight away. The only reason I considered a "truce" was because I thought he might have been Star Fox, and he was willing to allow me to investigate him tonight. It was thanks to Starfox team (namely Romanic) who pretty much said "he isn't one of us", is why I made sure I pushed my case forward. I think this is pretty clear I have no ill intentions towards Starfox or the town in general.

    Also, credit goes to TheFlax as well. he shouldn't be left out.

    I will state it here for the record Yasei, both the town (Cornerians) and second town (Venomians) both require the Big Bad dead as their victory condition to win. If the Big Bad is dead, we all get a victory. If the Big Bad wins, we all lose, regardless of Cornerian or Venomian. Venomians are only called "neutral" for lore reasons, as Pizza is writing it from the angle of the Cornerians. In games such as StarFox Assualt, both Star Fox, Wolf, Cornerians and Venomians worked together against the "Big Bad". This sort of union has happened in lore at numerous occasions in games.

    Best way to sum it up. Corneria is the USA, Venom is the USSR, and the Big Bad is the Third Reich. Just like in that conflict, two sides who disagree (USA and Russia) work together to defeat the Big Bad (Germany)

    I've noticed some controversy over this, and argument. Perhaps I should make myself clear.

    What I mean by this is.... I had a practice of placing cryptic clues in my writeups which could be found.... if you're really imaginative.... and use that to solve the game instead of standard mafia accusation/solving tactics. Examples: My early Simpsons games and Psycho games and Futurama games and so forth. As recently as the Snatcher, the writeups indicated something unusual about the game, or Psycho II, there were subtle messages embedded in my games. However... as nice as that idea is, and the flavor it gives to my games, I also realize that it could become the main focus of a game, and any crazy, off-the-wall theory about the way I word things or the numbers I mention suddenly mean anything you want it to mean. Then no one focuses on the scummy behavior of the mafia. Worse, if I make the puzzle too simple to solve, then there's no challenge, and possibly unfair on the mafia.

    As such, I'm phasing out such things in my games. I want everyone to have a fair chance. Those kinds of clues might be better in some other kind of game.

    What you might call clues, could be simply facts about the game.

    If someone is killing in a certain manner, that might be a signature. If they die, no more of that signature. So, that's the only "clue".... but that's no different from any other game. If a certain kind of murder disappears, then you could call it a clue, but I'd just call it a natural extension of the lack of there being a scumbag murdering someone.

    Apparently my definition of clue conflicts with other peoples. I am not saying there's NOTHING to glean from the writeups, only that they aren't necessary to read and do not contain hidden messages or special clues. It might contain facts, but it might also contain misleading information.

    So, it's not a reliable source of information. Therefore, it isn't a clue.
