    Welp, we're all going on the list of hate now. :(

    EDIT: Almost forgot, simulacrum. I'd say that's pretty obvious.

    Voting for someone probably won't kill them.

    Definitely confusing though... Coincidence that their numbers were all 2 apart?

    A public seering and do we know which of the kills were mafia?

    The tubes are maybe a guard? They stopped the beam from hitting Fiaryn though that may just be flavor. I suppose Arivia could have been the target of the vote which is why she didn't survive.


    That black text doesn't help either :P

    It depends if its a unique ability or not. Certainly Fiaryn was aware something along these lines would occur. The question I'm left with is if he had some knowledge of what would happen when the vote was won or if its his ability.

    I'm inclined to think ability..but I'm not sure, since this an "experiment"

    Well if we examine the narration closely Arivia is dead by the time she gets mentioned in the same line as Fiaryn ("space where Arivia used to be"), she fell into the hole the previous line. Since the same thing (the tubes) are happening to two people it makes sense narratively to list them in the same sentence. So if someone activated an ability on Fiaryn and Arivia, but Arivia died before it happened, how would you write it?

    As for the other one it looks like the aforementioned tube saved Fiaryn, but it doesn't imply he was the cause of the beam. It sounds like 2 guards, a seer, a vote, 2 mafia kills, a buzzsaw (vig?). Now the rub with this theory is that the experimenters would have to have targetted one of themselves. Which is rather confusing...

    I mean I love me some good old suspicion, but saying Fiaryn planned this isn't really supported by the narration.

    It doesn't have to be supported by the Narration. Fiaryn voted for himself and wanted others to vote for him. Considering that he isn't a village idiot, I'd say he is unique in that someone else (maybe more than one) dies in his place.

    Or else he was aware of what was gonna happen. Granted it sounds like Arivia died from something else. It compounds the issue in that she had 0 posts except for her sign up. Darian also did not vote for Fiaryn.

    As a number of you have found out, the first penalty for incorrect guessing is relatively minor. Don't expect it to stay that way. The penalties will increase in detriment as you individually make more incorrect guesses.

    The laser is probably the vigilante, because the mafia is most likely networked and it would make no sense for them to kill one of their own, unless they wanted to lose. Shamus is mafia. Arivia's falling is also mafia. The tubes probably had something to do with the lever, as they came down over both Arivia and Fiaryn. If Fiaryn could tell us his number, then maybe we could find a correlation between him and Arivia. The seer did a thing on Simulacrum.

    Well really I think he was going off of, the vote won't kill who gets voted thing in the op. Well sometimes won't kill and he took the gamble.

    While it's fun to guess what kills belong where I think our main focus should be figuring out the numbering.

    The only downside to this reasoning that I can guess is the seer thing. I mean if all the mafia are called experiment managers that will be a bit weird. All managers and no researchers makes for a bit of a poor experiment. Unfortunately for me if you are correct then my guess today was really wrong and I will be punished. I guessed that mafia change from phase to phase depending on the last phase's results. In hindsight I should have phrased it differently that maybe the mafia get promoted from researcher to manager depending on deaths from the previous phase. So by that conjecture I'd guess the manager gets more power then just a mafia grunt maybe?

    Oh and I'd like to pull the leaver this time. !Dogbone

    thank you fiaryn that knowledge should be useful when trying to figure out what happened.

    More info is key in this phalla I believe.

    Also, the only kill we should really be figuring out is the vote. We know the lever kills someone we just need to figure out why it kills the persons it does.

    I wonder if the same person pulls the lever again would it kill themself?

    I was working under the idea whoever pulled the lever would kill a person their number is associated with in some way and once that person is dead then if you pulled it again you would die.

    also all composite numbers died, while we can't guess how the mafia kill functions, we can guess that the vote is maybe also associated with your number based off prime / composite?

    I am going to support voting Fiaryn again mainly because if another composite dies then maybe it's associated in that sense, but maybe he'll die and each individual is associated to another individual.

    Except for maybe the person who has the number 1

    We had 4 targets last night: hole, buzzsaw, 2x laser, with 3 separate things. One of those must be the vote. I suspect the hole since hole beats dome which beats laser following the usual vote > guard > kill pattern.

    My (wrong) guess for today was that the mafia send in tattoo numbers instead of names for targets. It would have explained darian's death - he was inactive and so the mafia would have had an incomplete list of their numbers and could have guessed wrong.
