    Well once again the night goes unexpectedly. I am sad to see my brother in arms go down like that. But lets face it, he was a shitty knight anyway.

    I guess today we get to find out if Gandalf is mafia, invincible or not. Calling the village together "at the behest" of the vig who conveniently died that night is strange in and of itself. That he felt that the vig would know who was mafia or not is also strange, seeing as any seer who would have contacted him would HOPEFULLY have just seered him. Both died night two which means no second seering could have been done, which makes the claim hold no water for me.

    I just woke up and my son is screeching (guess what woke me up?), so I must depart for the time being.

    Ok real vote goes to Blahmcblah for reacting so strongly to ZH's thoughts - which were prob right on, causing him to be targeted.

    Ugh. Missed the switch off of Phyphor due to having dinner (and a surprising number of drinks afterwards) with my parents. Sorry about that.

    Anywho, Gandalf for now, though we should probably take a look back through Langly's posts at some point. Right now my head hurts though.

  • GrimmyTOAGrimmyTOA Registered User regular
    Actually, Gandalf. This seems like an unbelievably risky play on Gandalf's part if he is mafia.

    Exposing yourself to sure seering (they weren't both dead when he made the claim, and hell there could be a third) and potential vote/vig to get one guy out of the game? I don't know....

    My guess is that Phyphor reached out to Obi at some point. Obi took a look at his Phyphor file and saw the note that says "will never soft network" and got nervous. So he told GtC as a dead man's hand.

    If you guys can give me a well-reasoned argument for someone else, I'm all for it. The whole Gandalf thing stinks to me, and I think this is the most direct route to getting to the bottom of things

    Just sort of thinking aloud here:

    Gandalf, if he's legit about his role, is going to end up in the mafia's pocket the same way that the merchants did in the last Phalla. The mafia will extract as many favours as they can from him while ensuring that one of their number doesn't take Gandalf's help (allowing that one freedom to kill Gandalf at will). They'll also make sure that he knows that, and they'll presumably force him to tell them who in the village is asking for what.

    If Gandalf is limited to doing one favour/day, best case scenario is that the mafia gets all of the favours for the rest of the game. If not, they're presumably already juiced up and will keep him alive as a distraction/information conduit.

    So I guess we have three possibilities:
    1) Gandalf is on the level. Is an un/willing mafia stooge.
    2) Gandalf is a mafia running a hugely risky play to get out Phyphor.
    3) Gandalf is village, and has been screwing around for fun/RP. He probably has a few mafia names by now. He has also cost us a couple of days of voting records.

    My suggestion: vote for someone else and vig Gandalf. We need vote records.

    He's been saying that he's a neutral. He can apparently grant favours of an unspecified nature. The cost is that the grantee can't target or vote for Gandalf for the remainder of the game. Apparently.

    How does the grim one figure this? The voting records for yesterday in particular seem very informative, to a man's eyes.

    A man is also not in the mafia's pocket, having been contacted by surprisingly few people.

    On closer inspection of yesterday's events, a man believes he may bear a shard.

    Yes, but that is...something else.

    A man notices that the prickly one submitted a vote and encouraged others to follow it, perhaps indicating the presence of a shard among the frontrunners. With both of the other frontrunners now dead and shardless, a man wonders...

    "Ah yes, how absolutely irresponsible of me to forget about you in all the excitement last night!" The Acquaintance chimed as he re-entered, carrying a corpse over his shoulder with a striking resemblance to the actor who played Bernie in Weekend at Bernie's 2. Not that anyone would recognize that fact.

    He faced <Butler for Life #1> and put on a transparent green visor. "Now," he nonchalantly began, "you have a few new career options. One, you can have a trial by fire. Two, a trial by lightning. Or three, I can transfer your soul into this body and send you into the future where you will die a little bit each day for all eternity as you are forced to participate in creating the worst blight ever known to mankind. The choice is entirely up to you, my good man."

    <Butler for Life #1> swallowed hard, took a moment to gauge his situation, and said, "I-

    That was all he was able to get out. Everyone watched in silent horror as he spontaneously burst into flame. His bloodcurdling screams were only silenced by a secondary bolt that fused his lips together, and then by a curious flash that saw him disappear along with Bernie.

    The Acquaintance looked around the room. "What?" he asked, defensively. "He ran out of time."

    You should be careful. People don't like it when players of The Game use deductive reasoning and logic. It's much better to cast about blindly, then in a panicked tizzy throw a judging gaze at a random participant and shout,

    "Kill the demon inside Malkor!"

    For example.
