Zelda Mafia Round 3: Day Three

[ZeldaGirl]

If you say I should trust X-3, then I suppose I can.

...how the hell does SD know to absolutely trust X-3.


I don't like the way this is going. Some people seem to know TOO MUCH. More than is kosher. And it really makes me wonder.

I mean, it's amazing how dead on SD has been. What if this has been a fluke? An attempt to win us all over? I mean, SD is wily, look at last game.

FoS: SD

Thanks, Blake. I appreciate that.

Which is why I'm beginning to not trust you. No one is THAT good. My goodness, I'm betting this is some amazing plot to entrap us all in your snare. I'm willing to bet you actually ARE mafia!

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

Ammending what I said to ZG: I'm not telling anyone to go out and lynch Daos and SP based on that. I'm stating my views, and you'll be damned if it's my fault if everyone follows me down that road. I like that everyone's trusting me, and I will only insist on people killing those I am more than passingly certain are likely to be bad guys.

HOWEVER.

I DID only base my initial judgement of Boo and Tazy off single posts from each of them.

And it was a similar reaction, only theirs was negative, while Daos and SP and throwing the positive.

Boo and Tazy both made me think they "knew" someone was Mafia, just as Daos and SP are doing now.

I want everyone to see this, because it's brilliant and could otherwise go undetected.

Yes, ZG, of course I'm Mafia. In fact, I'm the Ghost of Ganongohma. Good job.

[Blake]

Well I guess the way I operated thus far is I have about five townies I think I can trust. I have branched out and added another 2 from 2 of those 'trustworthy' members, one of them being SD's suggestion to add X-3.

But I do need time before I FoS Daos and SP.

[ZeldaGirl]

*shrugs* I'm just saying. Not even HOTTIE the past two games nailed four mafiosi based on a total of what, four posts?

Which goes back to my point - you got Boo and Tazy (only sort of) based on such little evidence. Which goes back to my theory of manipulating and casting out your own to win over the townies - I mean, NO ONE WILL LYNCH YOU if they think you can nail every single mafiosi.

...Please tell me that I'm NOT the only one seeing this?

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

Oh, by the way. "No one can be THAT GOOD?".

HotD managed, and this is the same deadly road that people began taking with her.

You can't know that much, you must be bad!

And I should think you of all people would recognise it, ZG.

*Ahem*

Already addressed that.

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

The difference is, I can investigate. Would I throw myself headlong into lynching someone like Boo, who hadn't "done anything wrong", if I wasn't 100%? No.

Just as I'm not throwing myself at lynching RF, but I AM willing to bet my game on him being Mafia. All it takes is one little thing to set you off, then you can start tripping them up.

[Daos]

I never said I KNOW for myself RF is mafia, I said I trust your judgment on the matter. The fact your attacking me for trusting you IS suspicious and a little hurtful.

[ZeldaGirl]

The difference is, I can investigate.

...Well, that's the impression everyone is under. Still, I'm quite invested in my theory. I mean, day one, based on three posts (one from Boo, RF, and Tazy), you've gotten two mafia, and are thinking you're on track for the third. Which makes me go back to my theory - a little trust goes a long way.

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

Emotions aren't in play, Daos.

Every suspicion starts with a single posts. Tazy flipped when the spotlight came on him. Once you get the ball rolling, you can trust the guilty will do something to give themselves away completely.

Watch them.

[ZeldaGirl]

Watch them.

OH I will, SD.

I will.

[Blake]

Well ZG if you are right about buying SD's trust then I ask you revisit this issue later in the game if it seems down to the last mafia(but I'm not asking you to stop arguing right now just remember).

Personally I think it's too risky for SD to do this and lynch her buddies. Say we lynched 5 mafia and supposedly we need one more, there's always the option to kill her to confirm those suspicions too, seeing as at this stage, she should have a good understanding of who's townie and who's mafia.

Not only that, but the mafia may have killed SD already one night themselves. It could easily be said that the doc protected and the hero killed a mafia. Unless it was up to Tazy's consent to kill, perhaps this is why it couldn't be done.

But I don't mind your arguing with SD, but just saying I trust her a real lot regardless.

Double: "This Stage" referring to like Day 5, where she investigated a good number of people. Thus lots of investigative info.

Yeah, I'm not buying it ZG. You're basically saying you think SD is mafia because she's acting pro-town.

[Daos]

Really though ZG you are forgetting Round 1, HotD did take out the mafia in rapid fire sucession that time and that was without an investigative skill. With SD we have the same sluething skills and the ability to back it up.

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

*Blake and Mikhail hugs!*

Well, think about it this way. Boo being lynched was good to buy into her trust. Her nailing Tazy makes her an absolute townie in some minds. Now, she can attack those who AREN'T mafia, because she's proved herself twice.

I'm just saying, there is something about it that makes me very uncomfortable. There's a difference between uber-analyzing every post. But, the posts she's basing her suspicions off of are...well, nothing. I don't know, I don't trust this situation.

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

ZG, if RF is lynched and turns out Townie, who do you think dies next?

I mean, seriously.

*Shrug* I'm giving you guys my absolute objective opinion. I'm the only one here who can say whatever I want. So, I'm going to, because I have nothing to fear.

So, then, do you think Blake's idea has merit? I mean, you trust him... so, DON'T vote RF today, make sure to order the doctor to protect YOU, and then investigate him? That way, you'll have absolute proof...

[Saria Dragon of the Rain Wilds]

I'd rather not, as I am already willing to stake my game on RF being Mafia. (man, is there an echo in here?)

If RF is Mafia, would I really be subject to question following that?

Besides, that would drag the Day out really loooooong. D:

[ZeldaGirl]

^That's fine then. Of course, RF still hasn't responded to my question.

I'm just asking people to keep open minds. Remember, game one, Wy won many people over with some of his suggestions. People, it's one thing to be trusting. It's another to be blindly trusting.
