Yeah, unless Beskar's ability specifically stated he had to kill every other night, I'm going to have to call him out on that as one of many moves he made throughout the game that made him look scummy.

Right, because I have a need to lie when we're all dead, right? :P
Choxorn genuinely was an unknown quantity; when the writeup was published with Fox's death, Beskar was actually asleep and I text him to let him know that he'd seemingly vigged Fox. His response was a mixture of emotions, the main one actually being surprise because we had Choxxy down as either a disinterested vanilla or lurky mafia.
I often suggested investigation as the better of the two choices, mainly because I dislike vigilante kills for the inherent risk of killing power roles or townies (which is why they carry a penalty in my game if you get it wrong!) but there were occasions where Beskar preferred to take the advice of other players, such as Renata, rather than his own teammates... nothing that we can do about that, he's the one who submits his orders for the night, after all.
Beskar adopted that systematic killing style for whatever reason he chose, which I still have no idea about; I agree that he acted scummy and made bad choices, but I think the majority of the playerbase is guilty for that too, so it's really like the pot calling the kettle black.
You should probably save any further tirades you may have for when the game ends and Beskar is actually allowed to respond to you. :P

Romanic and Secura have said what needs to be said on the matter already, you should re-read it
If you don't trust Romanic, at least listen to Star Wolf team, or do you dispute their attempts at help with them removing 3+ Androssians.
There's no informed decision once everyone has made their case really, its all hypothetical and at this point of the game, I'll like to stress that the entire Fox and Wolf team is dead, and we've offered what assistance we are able to render without breaking rules, that should be enough for you
I am very intrigued here with your near subservient status to Psychonaut's whims bordering on seemingly fake. Its like your a mafia looking for an excuse to change your vote to your buddy when its unavoidable. What do you have to say about this Nightbringer?
And it took Psychonaut to persuade you? Come on Nightbringer, the Fox and Wolf team have already presented to you why its extremely plausible that Khazaar is the guilty party.So we are going with khazaar?
Right... so now your "plausibility" that Auto might be lying has changed into outright acknowledgment of his scumminess. I sense the fallacy of the appealing to popularity here.okay, works for me, they are both scumbags in my eyes
So what is the rational behind your most curious actions as of late Master Nightbringer?
Was nightbringer publicly verified as a likelier innocent? Or an unknown still.
You cannot add days to life but you can add life to days.
They have, and I did, that was a while ago.
After everyone has said what they think, more information is available, making any vote cast at that point more informed. And yes, star fox and star wolf have offered their assistance, and i have read it and value it, but i also wanted to hear what psychonaut had to say.
I'm not being subservient, I am just acknowledging that the mutual town decision seems to be to vote for khazaar, why would i go with autolycus and give any remaining mafia a possible way out. We can't afford a split town vote at this critical time.
And I DID NOT CHANGE my vote, I was thoroughly criticized for not casting my vote yet earlier when I was not sure about my decision, so accusing me of changing it now is a open and shut case of damned if i do, damned if i don't. When, pray tell, am I supposed to vote. As soon as I get a whim about who to vote for, that way I can be blamed for switching my vote when I change my mind. Or maybe I should wait till I am convinced of something, but no, because not voting for a while makes me scum, and then I am still accused of changing my vote. Maybe I should just not vote, although I'm sure you will find a way to turn that against me as well.
unvote
No, as I said, I just wanted to avoid a split vote. Of course I am going to vote khazaar when the town unanimously agrees on it. But what is so wrong with having not made up my mind when we were debating who to lynch. I am still of the opinion that autolycus is scum, but voting that would just be stupid right now.
And if I'm wrong, you can shove it in my face as much as you like.
I considered it plausible a while ago, for the last few rounds I have considered auto scum and have posted as such. That is also the argument psycho was making. I aknowledge psycho a lot because he is a much more experienced player than myself and has been doing a very good job finding mafia in the last couple turns.
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by this, but it is obvious that I cannot be Gorgon, and that is the only remaining mafia, (unless someone has not appeared in write ups yet).
It was also publicly verified on round 10 I believe that I am a venomian. (by Beskar, through scanning)
I'm not mad or anything, I just think every post ever made in this game can be seen as scummy when looked at in the right way, and I've drawn the short straw of being on the list of people whose posts get seen that way due to in game circumstances. A lot of other people have gotten voted out for the same reason and turned out completely innocent (everyone except Pinman that was voted out for most of the game).
Anyway, since this is likely the end of the game, (or in the next couple of days), I just want to tell everyone I really have had a great time and this has been an awesome way to start playing mafia games. I look forward to playing more and hope I haven't made any lasting enemies (or people who just don't like me, nooo, please like me!!! ;)

This round is over. I don't know why I am still awake, but the writeup will be delayed until I get sleep.
I'm going to be cruel and not reveal if Khazaar was guilty or not until the writeup, so there will be some suspense and/or something worth reading as opposed to old news.
Consider this the night phase, and send me your actions.

Like I usually do when I get a pro-town power role, I was trying to not look like a pro-town power role. I guess that worked.
Yes, silly Beskar, you have to be careful with vigilante kills or you might accidentally kill Krystal and Star Fox.
I'll agree with you there. When I first started looking through voting patterns and thread posts for scummy-looking players around Night 6 or 7, I ended up with a really long list. It of course included the epic lurkers like miotas, pever, and hell hound. It also included several random semi-lurkers and bandwagoners like ATPGood, the entirety of both Star Wolf and the known Androssians (except maybe civplayah and Chaotix, they were too lurkery for me to really tell), and I probably would have suspected Star Fox members too if I didn't know them to be innocent.
Good point.
That was the entire reason that you were vigged, though. :P
Krystal was a major letdown for us; Joooray had been acting scummy, I pointed it out and Beskar was supposed to investigate... however, I think it fell on a night where he was following the kill pattern and so Joooray was put to the sword instead.Yes, silly Beskar, you have to be careful with vigilante kills or you might accidentally kill Krystal and Star Fox.
T'was most unfortunate, and I'll be interested to see exactly what Krystal would have brought to Star Wolf beyond being another role for Andrew to tell his buddies about. >.<
It's been one of those games, really... I think that the town has done everything possible to hand victory over to the Androssians, and it really could go either way now.I'll agree with you there.

Nah, the reason I was vigged was that Beskar decided to follow the kill pattern. Most of the people he ended up vigging were a little scummy, but not to the point that he should have risked vigging them. Investigated, certainly. I would have preferred being investigated than vig-killed although Beskar certainly would have at least told civplayah who I was, and probably would have just revealed it in the thread at some point anyway.
Day Phase Thirteen
General Pepper: This is General Pepper calling all Cornerian units... we need your help! Defend Corneria from the enemy army!
Yaseikhaan: This is Blue 41, responding. My squadron is on it, General.... we won't let you down, sir.

The remnants of the Cornerian Army returned home, only to find their homeworld under attack by the Androssian menace: Gorgon.
Gorgon: Those who cross Andross will die! The Androssian Empire will NEVER fall! Our leader will return, and when he does, you.... are.... DOOMED!!!
General Pepper: Blue unit, cover the base. Don't allow anything to get through! I'll be arriving down on the planet shortly.
Yaseikhaan: Copy that, General. All wings target the tentacles, that should slow it down.
Gorgon: I'm going to crush you... you annoying little flies.....
Yaseikhaan: We'll see about that. Okay guys, destroy the three energy balls, and the shield should collapse.
Gorgon: How about.... this! HYPER BEAM!!!
Yaseikhaan: Watch out, guys!!!
Gorgon: Hold still and let me shoot you...
Yaseikhaan: You're not taking him down today. All units: The shield is down, shoot the core!!!
Gorgon: MY EMPEROR!!! I'VE FAILED YOU!!!!!
Night Phase Thirteen
Yaseikhaan: Did we get 'em all?
Granga: The eternal armies of Andross will never be defeated!
Yaseikhaan: I'm going to take that as a no....
Granga: Ahhh.... so THIS is Yaseikhaan. I've heard all about you.
Yaseikhaan: Of course you have. I just wasted your boyfriend with my badass laser cannon. Sorry about the mess.
Granga: Choke on my missiles, Khaan!
Yaseikhaan: Woah.... I could use some help here guys.... hey, where's my backup?
Granga: Ha ha ha.... seems your buddies have all flown the coop. The Cornerian Base belongs to Lord Andross now.... and I will present to him your miserable, burning carcass!!!
Yaseikhaan: You won't get very far without your legs....
Granga: NOOOOO!!! You've ruined my beautiful mech.... right, I'll do you for that!
Yaseikhaan: Sorry to disappoint, but I've already got a date.
Granga: If it is the last thing I do, I'll make you bleed.... where do you think you're going?
Yaseikhaan: I'm going to get reinforcements. "Sit tight...."
Granga: Oh, you cocky little freak, you're not going anywhere.... fire the entire starboard battery!!

Just to clarify, its day phase now again?
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.
Well we can safely say it can't be WEW, as he was scanned not neutral on N2, and all the starting Mafia are dead. So he can't be Granga. It can't be me as I'm Cornerian.

vote:autolycus
Its time to finish this, scum. You've been riding a trail of trust ever since you made that fake role-claim as general pepper. I don't need to go over everything that makes it clear that the details are fake, as that has already been made clear to everyone.
The motivations for faking the claim are obvious, you are mafia.
You came up with the role of General Pepper based on info you had and because of some lucky guesses you made about the nature of this character.
You knew only venomians could be converted from your mafia quick-topic and used this to claim an ability that sounds reasonable, but is completely redundant because cornarians simply cannot be converted to begin with.
You chose general pepper because he appears to be a character in the game but he is not
The evidence of this is that General Pepper has not been taking part in actions, he has merely been advising Cornarians what to do. He is present in the write-ups, but in a very different way from all the other roles. Never have we seen the Bloodhound take part in the fighting, never has General Pepper blasted away at any ships or flown in with the team, he is just the voice in the background, much like James Wolf. Every other role in the game has taken some kind of direct action.
You took advantage of general peppers presence and guessed based on the factors above that he was an NPC, and so you took the role as your cover.
Now, lets analyze voting
[QUOTE=Romanic;2526847]
Let's go back again to the bad guys votes:
***
(living players are highlighted in red)
merciary/Chaotix : abstain, civplayah, no vote, no vote, no vote, hell_hound, Khazaar, wideyedwanderer, no vote, Beskar, Beskar, autolycus
Winston/civplayah: JHT, civplayah, no vote, no vote, Beefy, Khazaar, no vote, no vote, pevergreen, no vote, Chaotix
Pinman: no lynch, autolycus, wideyedwanderer, Beskar
Skooma: Double A, civplayah, wideyedwanderer, abstain, Beefy, Beefy, Frozen in Ice, Nictel, Krill, pevergreen, Miotas
TheFlax: no lynch, Renata, Krill, Pinman, Seon, Beefy, Khazaar, Diana, Krill, pevergreen, ATPGood, Chaotix
***
We can see that the only times mafia voted for autolycus is when an irreversible bandwagon came down on them. With the safety of being the for sure lynch Pinman and Chaotix voted their undercover man autolycus to attempt to give him some credibility.
Here is autolycus voting history
We can see that he has voted for Pinman, Khazaar, and Chaotix.
The chaotix and Pinman votes are irrelevant because they were bandwagoned so badly it didn't matter and all the mafia voted for them.
The Khazaar vote was during the Beeefy Bandwagon, which is odd, but perhaps he just wasn't paying attention.
More likely though, he was recently recruited, possibly right before his fake claim as general pepper.
In fact, he could have been recruited AT ANY TIME during the game because he was never scanned.
I hope this isn't too full of typos and such, but I believe it can stand as proof to my loyal cornarian allies that auto is the scum we need to get rid of.
If you fail to lynch him now you will be faced With a 1 on 1 situation next round, which means???
but it is certainly worse than just killing him now and ending this thing once and for all.

The very same situation applies to you though.
Now is the time for a proper reveal of your role PM, auto; this is the final lynch of the game and it apparantly boils down to you or Nightbringer.
Anything you can provide that will help people decide would help, obviously.
