Мафия 108. Haunted asylum

This is a very clever move – to advocate for one's own execution in a completely alive town, especially when the mafia team has no way to save themselves from executions, right?

Even with a Doctor, it wouldn't make sense because, at the moment, the town has a numerical advantage and would simply execute the same player the next day. The town, however, also has no reason to advocate for its own execution – if successful, the town wouldn't gain any useful information beyond the role of the executed player. However, if we assume that negative votes are being cast on bad roles due to actions in the newspaper and the results of the poll, then preemptively executing oneself could be used as a kind of maneuver – the negative voter wouldn't do that, would they? In any case, since ToX himself doesn't object to his execution, I'll leave my vote on him unless a more obvious candidate for execution appears before the end of the day.

Well, maybe Natasha was a very intelligent woman? And it's unlikely that someone with average intelligence could handle all four volumes of "War and Peace."

Guys, what do you think about the Tox - Guardian Ghost, Lock - Abbot Ghost pairing? Is this just a lucky break, or is it a clear giveaway?
Something doesn't quite add up here. If Tox is innocent, then he's Salzman, which means he's one of the roles that Locken is claiming. But we can't have two doctors, so in this scenario, Locken is left with only Charlie, the girl, or the abbot. Either Tox has some kind of mystical intuition and realized after the second night that Locken is Charlie or the girl (although he didn't seem to trust the girl very much), or Tox is a ghost who sensed that things were getting dangerous and decided to drag Locken down with him, knowing that everyone will be suspicious of him after his execution, or the journalist showed amazing intuition and luck, and we have two mafia members who are going all-in.
In short, for now, let's execute Tox. I'm especially interested in how Locken will comment on all of this.

Every night, all over again?

Yes.

Doesn't anyone, except Nera, want to analyze the survey from the very beginning? ^^

I actually like Alex's take on the third question.

"Three daughters, one son, family happiness, and well-being – this is the reward for Natasha's resilience and courage in the trials she has endured. Now she firmly knows that together with her husband, they will be able to overcome all difficulties, and therefore she is happy, even resolutely refusing all social pleasures." Okay. I also tend to think that this is a question about a single hero. So, the item is a clock, Inta is average, and there is an affiliation with a faction? Can it be interpreted that way?

Master, are you there, Master? And if I get modkilled, will you reveal my role to the town?

I just feel like this is my best town play...

That's a tricky question, I don't know how to answer. In theory, you can just write a role that fits the theme, and I can't do anything about it. So, I guess there's no point in hiding the role when modkilling.

In short, Tox has already accepted that this city won't allow him to play a strong role properly, so go ahead and execute him. The only question is whether I will be modding to give you a chance to execute real negativity or not.

And in general, I plan to get high in about ten minutes and, most likely, I'll just be playing for fun until morning.

Let's **execute Tox**, he's become too annoying, worse than ten Arandors.

Bolkonsky is a schizoid edgy philosopher, and Natasha is a social butterfly. The third question about a lone wolf is more than likely.

Hmm, an interesting interpretation. I haven't read it, but I have no reason to disbelieve it. Thus, Tox could have answered that he is not a lone wolf, but a team player, i.e., town/mafia. If that's the case, the result is not much different from my previous analysis, because the survey results do not impose any lone wolf role on him.

That's a tricky question, I don't know how to answer. In theory, you can just write a role that fits the theme, and I can't do anything about it. So, I guess there's no point in hiding the role during modding.

Excellent. Then, if they're going to execute me until the end, I have a red button that will help the town. I won't tell you anything else.

If you don't want to play normally, we'll play this way.

Cancel Tox's execution, execute Yashur.

Am I understanding correctly that Tox is either definitely a Doctor or definitely Mafia? Did you interpret the poll accurately? Because it's a bit difficult to understand. If so, that explains a lot about his rhetoric. In that case, I don't see any harm in lynching Tox or at least voting for him.
Linx, did you talk to him? Can you tell us anything?

I'd like to share my neutral opinion as someone who doesn't play this game but has a general perspective: during modding competitions, for daytime behavior, it's necessary not only to conceal one's role but also to penalize the entire team.

Hey, with all of us coming here, it wasn't so that you could just give up.

If anyone else wants to play Mafia and not waste time coming up with theories about the journalist having a 100% chance of hitting their target in the first two turns, I'm ready to explain.

After the events of this night, I simply have no chance of doing anything. All I can do is show you who is voting against me and actively campaigning for my execution, and then reveal myself and give you useful information. This is the best move for the town.

I can't help you with anything else, as I can't analyze the poll, I can't offer any suggestions, and there are no clues.

I can only recommend that you carefully reread the list of roles and their abilities...

Master, one more question. If Cliff is successfully defended, do you reveal the specific role of the attacker?
