    Just a heads up... in the last phalla all the "confirmed villagers" were listed in public to avoid being voted on. The mafia could easily target the network heads and the non-villagers/non-mafia, and that's even without me infiltrating the network. :)

    So I would advise not to name names.

    Also, Sal, you've been acting very similar in this game as you have the last game. Does that mean anything?

    the list that was posted publicly wasn't completely accurate

    and you infiltrated the network :) because of a shoddy game mechanic

    I wouldn't use the last phalla for many examples, particularly to point out the good fortune you fell ass-backwards into

    aside from all this though, I don't think lists of anyone other than suspects need to be posted.
    Not to derail the thread and start a debate, but the mechanic was not shoddy. The seers knew that their results could be clouded. The villagers like you, did not know this.

    ANYWAY I still think the network should not be revealed. The only people who benefit from this information is the mafia.

    except the village network has more than likely been compromised so knowing who is in it may reveal demons and that is not a bad thing when we are on the brink of losing anyways

    shoddy mechanic. A seer that is not a seer isn't worth a damn. And it wasn't made clear that the results were inconclusive, they were directly lied to about the results.

    why would you ask this

    this is so damning

    since you're desperate to be alive one more day, it shows that you're mafia and you want to keep your numbers strong in the off-chance that a bunch of us die tonight

    I just meant in the narration - but why would wanting to live longer indicate I was mafia?

    If I live through a night, that means a vote that would go to me, who I know is a villager, would potentially go to a mafia member.

    the main circle seems to be secure. Mine might have been infiltrated, but we're ineffectual at best.

    At best in this group they found out monkeyfeet was working with the seer and saw to stop the network to expand to include JC of DI.

    Hell, we would have had a source of information, they could have used that too. in short, fart.

    So "don't vote for me, you'll only be killing a villager" is now a defense that actually worsens suspicions?

    Man, Kusu was one of my prime suspects, and now he's out of the game.

    I don't think I really have anyone else at this point. Sal has been hiding under the radar with his wanted posters, and Uriel really hasn't been involved much, but it's not seriously that damning.

    to keep calling yourself a villager while pleading for another day, is a defense that worsens suspicions.

    You've contributed next to nothing yet you're striving to continue existing. Kind of swinging to both sides of the spectrum.

    When combined with a complete disinterest in helping the village find a viable target, yes.

    (I have no homework due tomorrow so I really had time for this)

    Hark, looks like it came to this. Oi, my last words. Might they strike truer then any of your loyalty. What can one say when they are surely six feet under? What cold words may escape one's mouth. Let us examine all of you cowards...

    Centipede Damascus, you are a lonely coward who hid in the shadow for two days. You spoke a shrill silence but still would cast your own neighbor out. Coward!
    Marth, you're an ugly coward.
    Wiet, I hope you choke on your lies you blackguard. Coward...
    Taya, I honestly have nothing to say here. I actually rather enjoyed your horses. May the heavens bless your heart.
    Butler For Life #1, Stuck in your web of lies you are but a spider in our midst. I can't wait till your children devour you alive. Coward
    Melding, Another solider of the devils. Your lurked and lurked. Coward.
    Seriously, You let me down the most. I thought you an inquisitive man, a man of evidence. But you hopped on the bandwagon just as everyone else. Coward.
    Redfenix, You are a good man. May the sun shine brightly towards you.
    Edcrab, An honest man pushed to treachery. I wish I could forgive you but you gave up your hope to lurk in with the rest of your fiendish brothers. Coward.
    ZeroFill, Simply and understandably a coward. Coward...
    JC of DI, You have felt the warmth of these people's flames far too much. While you cast me out it was a decision of desperation and as such I can not look too down upon it. You are no coward but merely a survivor pushed to their edge. Good luck.
    I Win Swordfights, King of cowards, lord of lies. I cast you a harsh judgment and hope you find your way to me soon. I have a knife for you, on the house. COWARD!
    Blankzilla, Yess... You have done... Good job... Keep it up, sir.
    A duck!, coward.
    Uriel, I wish I could say more words for you but you simply haven't been interacting with us villagers. You are like the shade you disappears into the night. Coward.
    MacGuffin, You're a loose cannon. Keep it up.
    SLyM, Coward.
    Nirya, Coward.
    Solar, You disgust me. Utterly disgust me to my now dead core. Coward.
    Sal, Keep up your job artist. Perhaps try to be less of a coward. Coward.
    NinjaSquirrel, Pour one out for me old drinking friend.

    And Dys, I hope you burn with the fiends you have surely conspired with. You're the darkest, the most vile. You are beneath all these cowards. I HOPE YOU DIE.

    28 players remaining.

    ostensibly, we have eliminated 2 of 13 mafia, leaving 11; this is presuming that Geebs was in fact a red herring and a death miller.

    The game could be over in as few as a couple more nights. The good news is we have an excellent chance of randomly nailing a mafia member just by choosing someone to bandwagon at random!


    However there's been some mention in the narration to the tune of there being no demons; that we're merely chewing ourselves up here, lunging at ghosts.

    If that's the case, what is our win condition then? To not vote, to not choose? To call out the Acquaintance himself?
