Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

I believe Malevolent was unvoted

Hmm, I might have forgotten to erase the tick mark. Sometimes people unvote without saying the name of the player (*points finger at Rlyeh :whistling: * ) but that's no matter, I don't think he's at a significant risk of a lynch anyhow.

 

[Malevolent]

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

Unvote: Flubby
Vote: Corax

Because we need to get a lynch today, and corax is a lurker, therefore he is probably scum.

It's how it works on mafiascum, you can just unvote.

Vote: Flubbucket

Vote: Corax

I said ethier one of them was fine, and with 20mins left in the day I'll throw the hammer.

Also Drixx was the backup doc, and Koral said he knew he was town, and now he shared a bond with him. Would the doc (Ducky?), know the player who's playing his assistant?

If that's the case and Corax flips to be backup X, it stands to confirm boogey in the same way Drixx's death confirms Koral. (best worst case senario).

Oi!

Talk about giving all kinds of bad vibes. Why not everyone just name who we all think are which power role?

Disclaimer: I admit my earlier mistake involving Flip. I made a comment about half a thing without realizing Flip made a different comment involving the other half a thing.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

The crowd gathered around corax and prepared to lynch him, a rope was fitted around his neck and made ready. The platform was prepared and corax was lead up.

Any last words? One of them said.

corax looked up and said: You're making a mistake, I'm not your guy.

The crowd yelled at him and called him scum, and they all shouted "Lynch the scum, lynch the scum!!!"

With that they prepared to seal corax's fate, and corax said: I have one last thing to say: Wow, you guys have a whole little thing going on. But I get it, you need a scum lynched don't you? Well, I told you, I'm not your scum. I'm the wild card. I'm the guy who looks at the reality in front of him and refuses to accept it. Like right now I should be terrified, right? But I'm not. I refuse to accept it, and I've one wild card to play.

Rule #9. Always carry a knife.

corax then proceeded to unbuckle his belt and draw a small knife and cut the rope that was meant to hang him.

The lynch on corax has failed.

It is now [highlight]Nighttime[/highlight], you may not post for 24 hours.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

The body of Noammr was found on a roof across the street from a townhouse that had been set on fire during the night, he was killed by a single gunshot wound to the middle of the forehead. It is noted that on the roof beside Noammr was a small telescope that was pointed at the townhouse, a pair of binoculars and a note pad with a list of names on it and a few of them checked off and the rest of them having a question mark after them. Each name had an address, and the current address he was watching when he was shot was the one that was set on fire.

Noammr has been killed.


It is now [highlight]Daytime[/highlight] and you may post freely for 48 hours.

21 left alive, 11 to lynch; 12 to lock.

 

[Uraj]

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

That was about the best result for a lynch other than a scum lynch. Corax is town and boogy is also likely town.

I currently have no idea what today's story represents from NCIS. Though the second killer is mysteriously absent. Did someone forget to send in a NK?

It's much nicer to be able to talk without that restriction. Gorny forced me to quote whole posts without editing anything and that made it very difficult to try to get almost any idea across.

I was trying to explain that on the first day that Noodle had helped to start a third wagon on coju instead of voting for either of the two largest wagons at the time Drixx and zemaj. This helped ensure a no-lynch day one and as Noodle is fond of saying, mafia want to deny information. Noodle only voted very late on the zemaj wagon day two. Noodle do you still suspect coju?

Dammit Ankeli, I hate when you are right. I've been wanting to see you lynched for several games now!

Zemaj is definitely pinging my scum radar like nobody's business. Thing is though, he's pretty much hitting every obvious scum tell. I find it hard to believe that real mafia would manage to be that obvious, unless he was a total newb. Zemaj, how many mafia games have you played?

I'll jump, on the bandwagon for him unless he has a really good reason, but I want to hear from him first.

Here Asrrin pretty much raises a too scummy to be scum argument for zemaj. However, Asrrin seemed unconcerned about Drixx's play in this regard. Even after korialstraz claims he knows Drixx is town, Asrrin continues to focus on Drixx. Unless korial comes up with a guilty result, I think this is a good place to start.

Vote: Asrrin

 

[Goryani]

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

Hmmm. Only one story today. Was there only one kill attempt or two? A single gunshot wound doesn't sound like multiple killers targeting the same player.

I'm not sure what to make of the townhouse set on fire. It could designate an apparently unsuccessful arson kill attempt, which would account for the second kill attempt. Arson sounds closer to Criminal Minds than NCIS, but I'm sure there is an arsonist somewhere in all the episodes. Not much else to work with there.

If the story references a single kill attempt, I wonder what happened to the other one. Might this anti-town roleblocker have a hand in stopping the second killer? That idea brings a big smile to my face.

Yesterday's events are confuzzling as well. Rlyeh appears to have two votes. Each on a different player. Each marked with a double asterisk. Rlyeh's name doesn't appear among the 17 zemaj voters though. Laarz, was your vote nullified D2 or D3 or both? I don't recall someone mentioning they had no vote yesterday, but maybe I just missed it.

And another failed lynch.... Mommy, make the bad thoughts go away!

Vote: flubbucket
Reason: My opinion hasn't changed since yesterday. If this vote receives little support today, I'm taking a long hard look at Rlyeh.

I agree. Vote: Flubbucket.

Uraj's "The second killer is mysteriously absent. Did someone forget to send in a NK?":
Perhaps both assassins targeted the same victim (Noammr)?

Uraj's "Even after korialstraz claims he knows Drixx is town, Asrrin continues to focus on Drixx":
I was going to keep voting for Drixx until he was lynched; fortunately for everyone, he suicided. It makes no difference to me that he was aligned with the town because, from my perspective, his posts never helped our faction win. All he did was to cause distraction and confusion, becoming a nuisance and maiming our chances to find a mafia. Zemaj's lynch was just lucky.

Another day, another scumhunt.

Vote: Asrrin

For the same reasons as yesterday.

 

[Kestegs]

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

Not sure what to make of all this story. Not having any NCIS knowledge is not very helpful.

It would appear as if corax has lynch immunity, not sure if that's a good or bad thing tbh.

Noammar seems to be some kind of watcher or investigator.

I would like a good explanation of Asrrin and Flubb's behavior from yesterday before I start throwing my vote around.

And I'm not touching RE's post...for obvious reasons!

Because Drixx didn't start acting scummy until after I had made this quote, and if you notice I tried to get BOTH of them lynched once I realized how scummy they were both acting.

I stand by my votes on Drixx. I thought he was completely scum right up until he suicided and I thought Kol's defense on him was based on either being a scum buddy or having a flawed investigation. Notice how I've not pushed for a Kol lynch now because of his flip. I realized that Drixx was simply monopolizing the game and not part of some scum conspiracy.

As for today I want to try lynching another lurker. Luckily for us Corax was lynch immune, and from the story is pro-town. So the chances that our other lurkers are mafia is just that much greater.

Vote: Noodle

[flubbucket1]

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

I went back and reread all eleven of Noammr’s posts (WOW what a spammer!). I only found one worth noting. #(823). His lynch question to Malevolent and Asrrin, then the subsequent whadda you think of Malevolent question to kestegs.

I say this because it appears to me Noammr was some sort of an investigator. Perhaps he already knew something.

I don’t think corax, and by his admission boogyman are bad guys……unless you work for Allstate These are the sorts of roles I was expecting to show up in this game….malaise and mayhem. Most likely where the role blocking and what I was speculating the taxi/switching might possibly stem from. Don’t know just a wild guess.

And my one last farfetched thing. We all assume too much. Caluin Graye receives a stab wound and is automatically assumed to be town. I’m not accusing him of anything it is merely a point. The very last person to post, on day one, has also been quickly and quite admirably presumed to be town. The only person claimed to have visited with Feysal is dead. He hasn’t offered too much useful information but some very clever speculation. I only bring this up to keep people from making assumptions. Feysal if you’re town then wonderful. If you’re scum, academy award performance.

 

[Caluin Graye]

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread

That was about the best result for a lynch other than a scum lynch. Corax is town and boogy is also likely town.

Strange, I get the exact opposite impression of corax. Admittedly I'm basing my opinion off of past experiences and know absolutely nothing about the setting, so is your opinion based on the closing day story?

I have never known a townie to have a need for an anti-lynch ability.

I was going to keep voting for Drixx until he was lynched; fortunately for everyone, he suicided. It makes no difference to me that he was aligned with the town because, from my perspective, his posts never helped our faction win. All he did was to cause distraction and confusion, becoming a nuisance and maiming our chances to find a mafia. Zemaj's lynch was just lucky.

I have to agree with everything said in this entire paragraph.

Noodle has to go down

Too much lurking yo, too much lurking.

Lurking is what Noodle does, both as town and scum, so that's a null-tell. Unlike most lurkers, though, Noodle still casts votes, so doesn't contribute to a no-lynch like most lurkers do.

And my one last farfetched thing. We all assume too much. Caluin Graye receives a stab wound and is automatically assumed to be town. The very last person to post, on day one, has also been quickly and quite admirably presumed to be town. The only person claimed to have visited with Feysal is dead. He hasn’t offered too much useful information but some very clever speculation

You bring up a very good point, and one I tried to pick at yesterday but didn't get a whole lot of traction. However, the best course of action is to pursue the most likely leads, but it's still worth keeping in the back of our minds that some things we assume to be truth could be faked or lied about.


------


Things I continue to find odd.

No role flip for Noammr.

No mention of Jonas Cobb. I'm expecting for him to show up somehow during our next night phase. Right now I'm operating on the idea that he attempts to kill every other night.

Is it a safe assumption at this moment to assume that mafia can disguise the identity of their kill targets, while Jonas Cobb, whether he be serial killer or not, grants more information to the town when he attacks someone?

Regarding the post restriction, it looks like the 'communicable disease' theory still holds a bit of water. Rlyeh was the first person to comment on Uraj's status. In post #730, he's the first person to actually mention the words 'post' and 'restriction' in regards to Uraj.

I know yesterday we were expecting it to hit Gullik, but didn't want to mention it then in case it was a mafia throwing around the post restriction. I was sort of hoping they'd make a mistake.

To test this theory, I'm throwing myself full bore at it. Rlyeh is post restricted today.

If the theory is correct, either Valhauros or myself should get post restricted tomorrow.

Vote: Noodle

I agree that Drixx needed to go at the time, but that Kol is pretty much cleared now. I am pretty torn on the whole Corax thing, as I really thought he was scum, and they would really benifit from lynch immunity. But yeah that wording screams pro-town. Not sure Noodle is our best bet for today, I still like flubb better.

I went back and reread all eleven of Noammr’s posts (WOW what a spammer!). I only found one worth noting. #(823). His lynch question to Malevolent and Asrrin, then the subsequent whadda you think of Malevolent question to kestegs.

If you’re scum, academy award performance.

I do find it highly likely that Noamar was an investigator. Any special reason you left off Noodle from that list of people he was quoting though? Also, do you not believe Flip when he says there the roleblocker is anti-town?

You have a point with CG. He could actually be telling the truth about Cobb and still be mafia, and Feysal could be faking, but I find those both less likely at the moment.

No role flip for Noammr.

No mention of Jonas Cobb. I'm expecting for him to show up somehow during our next night phase. Right now I'm operating on the idea that he attempts to kill every other night.

I agree with your theory here, with BA being killed by mafia, also the reason that we didn't get his role. I am less sure about the every other night on Cobbs. I still find it weird that Sath was knocked out with no other explanation. And could it be possible that the arson was another failed attempt by him? That did not seem to be associated with the gunshot attack. Although two of his attacks so far have had scalpels involved so my theory could be way off. Do you have any idea why you were put in the hospital while ankeli died?
