DARKLING [Concluded]

[LazyMcCrow]

It is possible the Darkling's evil powers are varied, but still no direct 'night kill'. Whether Jarema was 'set up' or indeed was himself one of these foul beasts to begin with, we need fear him no more - but if the affliction suffered now by Atheotes and Chaotix is caused by Darklings, that suggests that two Darklings are still present in the village and we should probably assume that the afflicted are innocent. If however, this evil that has fallen upon us acts like a plague, then Atheotes and Chaotix are indeed a danger to us all - but I do not believe in this second theory. I believe the Darkling - or Darklings that remain have cursed Chaotix and Atheotes with this affliction in the hope that we shall waste time lynching them.

After reviewing the events since the Pastor told us of this Darkling threat, It is my opinion that White Eyes :D has said much, but done little more than obfusticate and sow confusion. He propounds the theory of the 'disease' -p a throey to which I do not subscribe - and his vote on Chaotix - when Jarema was the obvious choice for the lynch - smacks to me of an attempt to protect his fellow demon. Look at Chaotix now! He lies on the floor of Gods house - alongside Atheotes with his face melting.

We do not know if they shall survive - but it seems fooilsh to me to waste time putting them out of their misery instead of seeking out the one - or ones who did this to them.

I do not like to vote to kill a member of this community without cast iron proof, but we have no choice, lest more of us suffer the fate of Chaotix and Atheotes.

So I vote: White_Eyes :D

[Chaotix]

Err...

Apparently I woke up today and found out I'm in constant agony. It's exactly what it seems like in the write-up. I assume the same is going for atheotes...

No mention of who might have visited me. As I said, I visited no one.


I have no idea what to do about this. I might die. Or I might become possessed. Or it might be a false alarm designed to scare you all into voting for me. It might very well be a good idea to get rid of atheotes and I. But if you do, remember that the guy who's doing this is still out there, and he's the one we have to catch.

One thing is for sure: the Darkling caused it, and he forfeited his night kill to do it. I bet atheotes visited me last night, and that's why he caught the disease too. It's likely that since I asked people to visit me, the Darkling thought he could afflict a bunch of people with it.

Vote: edse

Troll logic. Killing innocents since they're going to die gets us nowhere, in the same way that killing nobody gets us nowhere. The lynch is a tool to be used, and it's the only one we have.

I'm starting to believe less and less that Jarema was guilty.

EDIT: Wow, ninja'd me, Lazy.

[Visor]

I distrust the visiting mechanic. It seems to be a trap in my eyes.

In any case I am curious as to what happens after this day in regards to chaotix and atheotes. Especially if one is lynched.

Ninja'd indeed - but I don't believe you are guilty. You also need to revote as you've edited.

Well we were told that it may trigger events, but on the whole would be uneventful

I think that the only result of such a lynching would be that the Darklings would have been successful in their ruse. The effects of their affliction may only last a day. They may be real or imagined, but I am getting the impression that the Darklings powers are illusory and very much suited to getting real villagers to turn on one another.

"We must keep our faith in the Lord, as always, and pray for His guidance. But I have heard of these sorts of bizarre situations before. In the town I grew up in as a young boy, I heard my parents tell stories about something called a Darkling."

"Darkling?"

"A terrifying demon capable of making itself look just like an ordinary human being. They prey on the weak and the innocent, tormenting their victims and causing them to suffer unimaginably, before finally ending their lives. Sometimes, the victims go mad just from the presence of these beings."

EDIT: Having just bolded that text it totally contradicts what I was guessing at above: Maybe Chaotix and Atheotes are in fact just dead men walking. However it does reinforce my belief that a lynch vote for either is a wasted vote

But isn't it worse to lynch someone based on weak suspicions and he then turns out to be townie? I will however not argue about this further as you are both of the same view and I'm apparently doing it wrong.

no need for the self-deprecation, we all know that weak suspicions, or 'instinct' is generally all you have to go on at first, I'd like you to explain your reasoning to me how lynching Chaotix or Atheotes is more useful. In my mind they are apparently innocent victims, but you obviously think not - so what do you think and why?

[edse]

I might have misunderstood you, what do you mean with

Maybe Chaotix and Atheotes are in fact just dead men walking.

They are innocent victims but we don't know what will happen with them. If they die this evening and we vote for one of them we will have 2 dead townies. If we instead vote for someone not confirmed mafia we can have 3 dead townies. If we vote for them and they survive the plague we will have 1 dead townie and if we vote for someone else while the two survives we can have 1 dead townie as well.

The only thing that can make the odds better is if we lynch a scum. How certain are you that White_eyes:D are mafia?

What I meant by 'Maybe Chaotix and Atheotes are in fact just dead men walking. ' was that maybe they were the Darklings nightkill, but they don't actually die til the end of the day phase.

I am not certain that White_eyes:D is mafia, BUT given that the lynch is the only method we have of destroying mafia and that I don't believe either Chaotix or Atheotes to be mafia, then it is useful to town to lynch someone else no?
Do you honestly believe that either Chaotix or Atheotes is a Darkling?

[edse]

No, I don't believe they are Darklings, but I don't know if anyone else is either so I rather have 2 dead townies than 3. That is IF they die of the plague and that seems likely.

[LazyMcCrow]

So after how many phases would you suggest the lynching begins, because it sounds like you are keen to simply let the Darklings continue with their nefarious schemes until a lynch is statistically more likely of hitting the right target?

[atheotes]

I visited Chaotix last night.
I spent some time with him. Now i am in constant pain. not sure what to make of my state right now. we are yet to see a pattern in the night happenings.

Al right then, Unvote: vote: White_Eyes:D You were right about Jarema, maybe you are right again.

I still don't think lynching Jarema was a good idea, I don't think it was that easy to investigate by visiting and it was a ATPG type trap. I am rarely wrong about these things...but who knows until its over.

Your trying hard to control the lynch and that is giving me scum vibes.

I am making no attempt to 'control' the vote. I am simply attempting to get people to explain themselves.

[White_eyes:D]

Just so you know, I was visiting you last night and that's why you weren't "Infected". But I am also suppose to watch for someone spreading the "sickness" which I think is you.

I REALLY didn't want to reveal this because I now have no idea if it can reverse the whole "sickness" thing. I wanted to test it on Jamera but he is now mincemeat and it's your fault.

Hold on. You were visiting me and that is why I am not 'infected'? How is that so? Who would have infected me? I did not visit anyone last night and yet Chaotix and Atheotes are both 'infected' What is it you have exactly revealed? You just look like you're squirming to me.

[BSmith]

Was the watching for someone part a result of your visit, or did that come from somewhere else? I am also unclear as to what you mean regarding Lazy not being infected because you visited him – can you elaborate? As I mentioned earlier in the thread I visited Lazy N1 but didn’t learn anything from the visit.

I visited Double A last night, and learned nothing as well.

[Diamondeye]

I don't think edse is scum, I just think he had a really bad idea and decided to speak up with it.

Voting is used to capture the baddies. It's our only weapon. Why forfeit it?

You wanted to test your sickness on Jarema?

[White_eyes:D]

LazyMcCrow was "infected" by Jarema when he visited him for the first time. I had two choices, Chaotix or LazyMcCrow....I regret going for Lazy but what does it matter, shooting your self's in the foot is never new.

[White_eyes:D]

You know what? I don't care Jarema is my scum buddy, good job guys because I never stood a chance.

Unvote:LazyMcCrow Vote:White_eyes:D

[Arjos]

Meh, what's up with all these self-voters in mafia games lately? XD

Might as well vote: White_eyes:D then. If you don't give a damn about yourself, why should we keep you around? (assuming you are not a joker that is)

I can't quite put my finger on it, but this post seems very scummy to me (not to mention the whole 'self voting' thing).

To be fair to yourself, you certainly still stood a chance until you just admitted being a demon.

[landlubber]

Well, then.
Vote: White_Eyes.

[Chaotix]

No. No. NONONONONO.

Have you guys been reading the thread? What are you bandwagoning white_eyes for? Yes, it was right to pressure him, but now we know what he knows. He's got an ability that makes sense within the context of this game, that might keep us "dead men walking" from dying, and you want to lynch him. His words are not scum words.

I am indeed mistaken about edse as well- he's just got a bad townie idea, not a mafia one. Unvote.

I visited Chaotix last night.
I spent some time with him. Now i am in constant pain. not sure what to make of my state right now. we are yet to see a pattern in the night happenings.

This proves that this is a mafia attack. Darkling hit me with the plague, then I infected atheotes when he visited me.

Right. I'm guessing I'm probably the one spreading this thing right now. If atheotes and I survive, we need to be quarantined unless white_eyes can help us.

I distrust the visiting mechanic. It seems to be a trap in my eyes.

In any case I am curious as to what happens after this day in regards to chaotix and atheotes. Especially if one is lynched.

Visorslash. Talking without really saying anything new, trying to avoid the spotlight.

Vote: Visorslash

Sorry, but I've got this hunch white_eyes should really not die.

[Arjos]

Up to the point of your quote, yes it was possible, but his self-vote was nonsensical with his "healer" claim...

The healer claim must be false. LazyMcCrow said he didn't visit anyone, especially not Chaotix, so how could White_Eyes:D prevent him from being infected?
