I'm going to be giving another look at the remaining player's posts and votes, now that I'm off from work.
As for whether the stone mechanic is village or mafia, I suspect it is neither, due to the separate narration color.
If you are a survival neutral, or the player responsible for that mechanic, it is in your interest to talk to me today.

Uh, you do realize that they should be contacting me, since LostNinja flat-out said he trusts me 100%. Without a seer, no one is confirmed.
I basically have most of everyone's claims apart from a few holdouts, but if you want to reach out to me, it couldn't hurt.

Despite the accusations being thrown my way, I actually agree with this. I can't fathom how CJ could be mafia after what he's done.
It's not hard proof, but our corpse seer discovered that Phyphor was a green good guy. So I think if the Queen was good, only makes sense that the King was too.

Right, that was my first thought too. But does it make sense to have a Queen of Eblam but no King? And if we assume that a king exists and Virgil is just masquerading as that role, then surely somebody would have spoken up to somebody about that by now.

I discussed my Royalty, and my monsterness, and the mechanics of such, (in thread and pm)
way early in the game, before even monsters and kings were revealed as village players.
Basically a quarter of the players who were kings and monsters could have challenged me on it if they wanted.

I know the majority of players left are monsters. A few have remained totally silent. Why is beyond me. The only ones left are spell casters and mafia, so my fears that they're one and the same don't seem unreasonable.
I was the one who reached out to ahava and invited her to the network. I gave her the names we had, and she said she didn't like Martoss' story. She was going to seer him the night she died. Austin also was revealed to us as the healer that same day.
And he ALSO died the same day. Either the mafia have ungodly luck, or we had a leak.
If I can just keep poking holes in this:
It's true that we discovered that Austin was a healer the same day that Lonelyahava outed herself as a seer. But it was MrTLicious and Raiden333 who got bombed following that. And from what the network knew of their abilities, I don't see why I would direct the mafia to attack them instead of the healer and the seer.

I think this is kind of backwards? Sure, if you start by assuming that I'm mafia, then of course you can concoct a situation where my actions make sense as a mafia. I'm asking you to start by explaining what actions I've taken that indicate that I'm mafia. Because learning who the seer and a healer were and not having them killed immediately doesn't on its own scream mafia to me somehow.

Although I'm still inclined to believe Virgil on account of being statued, I think it is very likely that the mafia were given cover roles. Specifically, Gizzy contacted LostNinja before the seer call claiming to be a healer named Porom (or was it Polom?). And since we've seen neither Polom nor Porom and are running out of names roles to go around, it makes sense that some of the roles were kept as mafia cover roles.
Gizzy claimed to be a main character? Yeah, the mafia were given cover roles, which means your claim is entirely without value, Virgil. You give people cover roles of things that are common in the village so that people can't be soft confirmed by doing exactly what you're doing now.
I'm really inclined to trust Virgil because of the statue thing, and here's why.
In the network, we postulated that there was a village stoner and a mafia stoner. The day that Virgil becomes a statue is the same day that JusticeforPluto (mafia) becomes a statue. Also McKid dies. Afterwards, there's only one statue per day, which we took to mean maybe McKid was a stoner.
And even if it wasn't McKid, if we assume one of the stoners was non-mafia and one was mafia-mafia, then it makes sense that JFP got stoned by the not-mafia, and Virgil by the mafia-mafia.
Unless we really think the mafia started out with two stonings a day.
Most players aren't monsters, and none of us had any idea how prevalent they were early game.
They have definitely been hunted and distrusted. Way better roles to give for cover in a FF game.
You wouldn't shaft them with "looks like mafia" abilities either.
I'm trying to imagine being a mafia member and being told my cover role was a boss character, and naw son
Your distrust isn't my biggest concern, but the hoops you've jumped to display it, has been interesting.

Get ready for a big wall of text.
I just posted why I don't think we have a village stoner anymore. As for poison, H3Knuckles said a long time ago that he was in contact with a village poisoner, and through our network, I think we can verify that that player is indeed a poisoner. Also, we went down to one poison a day after Gizzy died, implying that she was a mafia poisoner.
So are you doubting that the first poisoner is village now? Why? Again, it feels like you're suggesting that the mafia started with two kills, one or two stonings, and two poisons a day. In a 33 player game, that seems hard to believe. The simpler explanation is that the last poisoner is village.
Which I guess I should just go ahead and admit it to everyone now in case anyone was still wondering, yes. I am a cranky Black Mage. And I have been poisoning any threat to the village or the world that I could find. My accuracy rating in that respect might be pretty low, but from what I know of vigs, trying to take out targets that you suspect and failing is better than not using your power at all.
And for informational purposes, this is who I have poisoned each day: Grunt's Ghosts (for being third on the Kime bandwagon), Phyphor (for voting for my buddy Brody and staying under the radar), nobody (because I was following Raiden's advice pre-network to give the healers a chance to save some people from being statues), SeGaTai (from LostNinja's suggestion), H3Knuckles (I was brainwashed), and finally Grunt's Ghosts again (following LostNinja's final suspicions.)
H3Knuckles should be able to verify all that, as he knew I was a poisoner starting from day 2. And now everybody knows. But since the brainwasher is supposedly dead now, what's the harm in that?
In fact, I don't particularly feel the need to poison anyone tonight, that's how confident I am in SeGaTai's guilt. So do with that information what you will!

If SeGaTai was mafia, he was either the laziest mafia ever, or playing one weird strategy. I have stronger suspicions elsewhere.
Well I mostly arrived at SeGaTai through process of elimination, because I just trust everyone else so much. But I'm always open to new information.

I'm waiting for some feedback before passing final judgment, but my short list also includes kime and Virgil(though mostly I don't like his previous attempt at being a figurehead).
I frankly think Knuckles is too fervent to be mafia.
Right now we have a tie vote, which I hope goes without saying: that's not a good thing.
Attempt at being a figurehead?
I'm rocking that crown whether either of us like it or not.
Also, the last thing I want to be is a Network Head.
I do want get answers though, and frankly more folk should be demanding likewise.
Yeah it was me who decided to poison you twice. Sorry about that (unless you're evil)!
That makes no sense though. Austin vouched for me. He was talking to me day 1. If I had been mafia, I would have gotten my heal and killed him and Preda. That is just stupid to poison me.
It was actually going to be SeGaTai, but LostNinja had a change of heart at the last minute. I chose you the second time out of LostNinja's three suspicions: you, chamberlain, and Kime. And since I trusted the latter two, I went with you.
No one in our network strongly opposed that though, so vote for me if you wish but we were all culpable. I'm sorry if you think I'm stupid. Despite me asking for us to get Austin in our network, that never happened. So all I knew was that you knew Austin was a healer! I never personally heard anyone vouch for you, only say that they healed you.
Edit: Also, if you were mafia and had just been poisoned, wouldn't you want to keep a healer around in case it happened again? Not that I'm accusing you, I think it's clear from your reaction that you're not mafia now.
Edit: Specifically, I asked twice, since we were going to depend on him to heal H3's poison anyways. But no one said anything and I didn't feel like I had the authority to invite him on my own so here we are.

Sorry, got fed up with the situation and took a break to crash and sleep a little. Got up and was busy with other stuff.
How did Martoss get in the network? That's the most important piece of information to determine if he's a mole or not.
I'm not sure how it will help, but it went something like this...
Day 0, I got in contact with Brody and H3Knuckles. As the phalla players that I noticed had the least experience, I said we should make a "new player alliance" where we get each other's backs. I revealed a little information about my role, and the following day I revealed everything else about my role.
As soon as LostNinja was revived, I revealed everything I knew to him. Brody was gone by this time and I didn't see what I had to lose by telling LostNinja everything. And then since I was having to say the same thing to H3 and Lost over and over again, I just started talking to them at the same time. Eventually, as per LostNinja's suggestion, H3 started a big pm between the five of us (me, Lost, H3, Raiden, and CJ). Finally CJ suggests a proboard, and from there we go on to make lots of good informed decisions, share tons of information, and ultimately track down most of the mafia.
I was the one who reached out to ahava and invited her to the network. I gave her the names we had, and she said she didn't like Martoss' story. She was going to seer him the night she died. Austin also was revealed to us as the healer that same day.
