Posts from Mafia 96. Curse of the Tephos Residents

Hmm... so, this is what we get: 1. Aleel is being watched (not displayed). 2. A Skeleton Mage is raised from the dead. 3. Ninogi is being watched (not displayed). 4. Trauh is being checked (not displayed). 5. A Large Skeleton is blocked. 6. Aleel is being checked (not displayed). 7. A Skeleton Warrior/Skeleton Archer is protected. 8. A Skeleton Archer is being checked (displayed as a fact). 9. Aleel is killed/maimed. 10. Trauh is killed/maimed. 11. Alesyor is killed. 12. Yuridyor is killed/maimed (most likely). 13. Vredun is killed/maimed. 14. The Skeleton Mage is healed (displayed if necessary). 15. A Lich is raised from the dead. Basically, everything is in place, unless the Mafia tried to maim someone.

The phrase "he wandered through the forest, not thinking about anything" is thought-provoking...

6. The mutilation of a maniac is displayed as a fact, without nicknames, but with a hint at the role of the mutilated one. Unsuccessful mutilation is not displayed.

Unsuccessful maiming is not displayed.

I don't think this was mentioned before

The phrase "wandering through the forest, not thinking about anything" makes you think...

So, who could be wandering around, not thinking about anything?

A Zombie doesn't fit – it's thinking about brains. Maybe a Skeleton

Has anyone thought about the fact that we need to carry out 8 successful executions in order to win?

The newspaper provides a fairly clear picture this time, but there isn't much information.

Town:
A large skeleton was blocking the Shaman.
A skeleton warrior was defending the Wishmaster, successfully!
A skeleton archer was checking someone out.

Mafia:
1) Yuriidor or Alesyor killed the Wishmaster, unsuccessfully due to the defense. Most likely, it was the second one, because the first one breaks through the defense... however, he doesn't break through immunity to being killed, and I'm not sure how it would all be displayed if the Wishmaster had an unkillable role.
2) and 3) - non-displayed NIs (Neutral Individuals).

The Maniac maimed someone, successfully. According to the rules, there should be a hint about the role. "Someone, as usual, wandered through the forest back and forth, not thinking about anything" - this most closely resembles a peaceful person without an NI.

Maybe a wolf was wandering through the forest back and forth until an orc with a club and bewildered eyes jumped out at him?

In principle, this is also an option, but the orc only maims the wolf on the second attempt. That is, this time the maiming wouldn't be displayed.

poor Wishik, he almost died
well, it's not really fair to execute him without any evidence.

Overall, the situation isn't great. To win, we need to carry out many executions; there's no other way to get rid of the mafia (or the serial killer). HOWEVER, an executed player cannot be resurrected, unlike a killed player. Should we continue to investigate, wait for more information, and prolong the game to 10+ nights, or should we take a risk and execute someone? I wouldn't mind hanging some inactive player or Tox, but the chance of being wrong is 33%. What does everyone think about this?

Inactive from day one? Let's go.

The situation, as usual, isn't great after the first night; everything is unclear. In general, I support the "No Night Vision" rule because then you can resurrect units.

Inactive from day one? Let's go.

There are players who are consistently not very active, and it's almost impossible to get information from them during the day – Alex, Neira, Tenshi, Lorelei. It's not yet clear how Deliries plays. I would execute someone from this group, except perhaps Lorelei.

No, I am a world.

Okay.

I only see one action from the Mafia. Where are the other 2?

I assume they don't want to cripple anyone on the first night. And various checks and removals of external defenses shouldn't be displayed, right?

This wasn't mentioned before, I think.

Hmm...

Great, I was protected, thanks. Regarding the newspaper, I agree with what has already been written. The Orc crippled him; I think it was just a simple skeleton – it doesn't have any special abilities, and there's not much to think about. And the zombie was probably thinking about brains. On one hand, I don't want to go into a nuclear war with unkillable mafias, but on the other hand, it's unclear who to eliminate.

What do you think, should we take the risk now?

Has anyone considered that we need to carry out 8 successful executions to win?

I don't believe it... I only see 6...
However, it's still interesting; we could try to set a record for the longest mafia game in history, measured by in-game time.

Cop, what do you think, is it worth taking the risk right now?

Master, are you a mafia member?

Did you forget about the maniac? He doesn't win along with the town, right? Or am I mistaken?
