I don't have any hard numbers on this, but I'm targeted more often than a black guy driving a beat-up sedan with a broken tail-light and no license plate, and Cy's well aware of that.
Okay, so if HP isn't bluffing, then we know the plan for the night.
Pretty sure it has to be Niv, then. Only other person I could see at all at this point is fulcrum. Kosa and Kamikazee are clear and I can't see KoolKoal deciding to shoot Cantrip there when given other options.
Think about it, why would scum-Niv ever claim his invisible buddy? It just looks weird and gives the town extra information.
And if Cythare's allowed to take night actions, but not post or vote, it makes sense that he's with a member of the town rather than scum. Being stuck with a townie gives him influence over another townie's vote, bringing the scum votes up to the normal 3.
Basically, DC should try to jail cythare tonight and we should try to lynch cythare first toMorrow and go on to Niv if nothing happens.

We didn't go all the way and try a majority lynch though. And it's possible he also loses when Niv is lynched, but I'd prefer to try lynching Cythare first as we lose nothing by the attempt.

This flavour scene covers Cantrip, Wildfire, and HookerPunch dying. Apologies for the short length.
”Thanks for the drink” the guest said as they took a sip. You smiled; no, grinned as they swallowed, knowing they had taken their own life unwittingly.
“Cheers”, you said, in a toast. Not five minutes later, you saw your target get up and walk away — stumbling, lightheaded.
“There’s no fighting father time, m’dear.”
Later that night
“I feel so dizzy.”
“Are you okay?” asked another guest. The had gathered on Monument Island for an evening picnic – some thought that by breaking bread with the group, they’d be able analyse how everyone interacted with the group, hoping the killer or killers would slip up somehow and expose themselves.
“Seriously, are you okay?” said another guest. “You loo—“
“OH MY GOD” shouted another as the sickly guessed fell forward.
“Take their pulse!”
“…”
“They’re dead.” Their mask fell off — you saw her face, soft and young, yet hardened by the trials and tribulations she’s endured.
“The seed of the prophet.”
“The what?”
“She is the seed of the prophet — Elizabeth
As people gawked at the passing of Elizabeth, the door to her tower on Monument Island flung open, as if they were being invited in. What they found was… shocking. A home built within the spire with no way out, but plenty in. It was a prison. Is this really where the seed of the prophet was kept? Like a petty criminal? The sun was setting, and with the door having slammed behind them as they entered, there was no point in trying to escape, and so the guests made themselves at home for the evening, knowing that tomorrow would only worsen their “adventure”
“Where in the bloody blue hell are we now?” asked a flustered guest who, correctly, figured out they weren’t in Columbia anymore.
Robert: That would be Rapture!
Rosalind: Or more accurately, Point Prometheus. Lovely little place, isn’t it brother?
Robert: Quite
”Why are we here?! Why are you doing this to us?”
Rosalind: “That is not the question you should be asking.”
Robert: “You should be asking why are you doing this to yourselves?”
”Where is our… obese guest?” one pondered.
“Oh no. Is another…?”
“Yeah. Look over there.”
There on the wall was the large guest — gored, blood everywhere. The size of the wound was several inches in diameter — the size caused only by a drill. A Big Daddy drill.
“That particular Big Daddy is Mr. Bubbles. One of the originals, and easily most feared in all of Rapture. Once was thought to be invincible, funny enough.”
“Funny enough? You’re sick and twisted, you know that? You’ve looked shady as hell this entire time too. Quiet, distant. What’s your angle?”
“I’m just the quiet type.”
“Bull*****. Our lives are in danger and you’re the ‘quiet’ type? I don’t buy it. Tell me right now why we shouldn’t just kill you and be done with it?”
“That would be a very bad idea.”
“Yeah, well, I’m not exactly feeling the desire to trust you. What about you guys? He’s shady.”
One by one, everyone raised their hands — their blind rage and bloodlust has begun to get the better of them. And so yet another life was snuffed out.
HookerPunch has been lynched. His role PM is as follows:

Actually wait a second. This doesn't any make sense.
Occam (and a fair bit of modgaming) says Niv is scum. If by any slim chance Niv is town, then on last Night either 1) scum went for Niv or 2) scum purposefully didn't NK. Scenario 1 hardly makes any sense to me, as DCIII was verbal in his intention to jail Niv (unless he was attempting to WIFOM it or he's the ballsiest scum ever), so scenario 2 is most likely.
If so, what reasons would scum have to avoid NKing?
- Incite major WIFOM to possibly get a free lynch on Niv
- Avoid confirming another townie, considering Kamikaze and myself
- Fear of Fulcrum WIFOMing her watch (if she's town), etc
So whatever was their reasons, if Niv isn't the last scum, it worked: Niv pretty much served as last Night's NK since we just snap-lynched him... and there's nothing to stop them from doing it again.
If the game goes on, we gotta cut the modgaming and start working on actual behavior. We can't simply lynch whoever DCIII jails because there's no way to discern if NKs aren't happening because scum are being jailed or being smart, and as a result we can end up losing a game that is virtually won.
I already did the end-game analysis in #1166. It doesn't matter what the scum are doing and why. Niv is probably the last one, and even if he's not, we can still PoE all the way to the end.
I just tend to get paranoid in endgame scenarios ever since Seppel beat the hell out of my ass in Eeveelution. A little bit of over-zealousness in base-covering is never too much.
We probably have this in the bag regardless, so there's that.
That's a lynch. Game is in Twilight for 24 hours (until ~00:30 EDT August 30). If I receive all Night actions before Twilight ends, I'll process the game right into the next Day phase.

I'm fine with DC jailing me, as it will allow me to check for his ability. Scum will either kill him, and I'll be cleared for mylo with Kosa, Kamikaze Archon and KoolKoal or they'll no kill, and give us an extra lynch for an auto win.
DC: If the first scenario happens, would you advocate lynching Kosa or KoolKoal? (I don't think Kamikaze can possibly scum with Cantrip's role flipped.)
The only possible way to lose is if DC's a roleblocker, roleblocks me and has to no kill, gets me lynched toMorrow, and then ends up in mylo with Kamekaze Archon, Kosa and KoolKoal? Uh.
Gotta be fulcrum, IMO, unless we're being toyed with by iRebel. The "I do find it interesting" line. It's not interesting - the other two are cleared via actions and KoolKoal decided to day poison the mafia JoAT which I don't see as an attempt to bus/self-clear.
If fulcrum wins this game as scum I'll be incredibly disappointed. I'm tired of pointing out how people constantly ignore the fact that Mafia is first and foremost a game of behavioral analysis, not half-assed modgaming, and yet no one ever cares to listen.
...fulcrum, you cleared Kosa yourself. Now you've got him on your suspect list? And you're ignoring the endgame solution I posted?
Have you even looked at the roles? There's nothing countering mine. Cantrip/Generic counters DC's. KoolKoal sort of counters LngRR's. Why is there nothing to counter my watches and tracks?
I didn't see Kosa make a kill, which means he is either a ninja, DC made an excellent play and there's no reason for Cantrip/Generic to have something that kill people twice, or iRebel gave the scumteam an extra kill in addition to the rolecop and JOAT. None of those things makes sense.
> I talk about how people ignore the whole behavioral analysis part of Mafia to focus solely on half-assed modgaming
> Fulcrum spends 3/4 of a post attempting a half-assed modgaming and 1/4 cursing people
Nice behavioral analysis right there sis. Great display of Mafia skills.
When you know the majority of the setup, you modgame. Obviously. And since you've appeared to have suspected approximately zero scum all game and might just be scum yourself, please **** off.
DC, I'm telling you, if you're town, you're going to die toNight. Are you seriously going to let that happen without giving your thoughts on who we should lynch?
Tomorrow's lynch is easy.
If there is no NK: lynch fulcrum.
If there is an NK and it's DC3: lynch Kool.
If there is an NK but it's not DC3: lynch Kool, jail fulcrum.
Actually wait a second. This doesn't any make sense.

Kosa is town both based on the fulcrum clear and based on this post. This is a whole lot of unnecessary concern for scum who basically got cleared and could just let this thing go unfettered. I'm not buying into the ninja fear.
Kami is town based on my jail and the fact that there's no way scum would have a second strong man kill, IMO.
Both cleared.
KoolKoal would have had to decide to go with the Cantrip shot (suspecting Cantrip/Generic prior to the end of Day 1 as his top suspect, BTW) - so I think it's possible but very unlikely.
So, if Niv isn't scum, my money is on fulcrum.
There's no way that fulcrum would be able to be jailed and kill though, based on Generic's role - so, if somehow I'm killed tonight, know it isn't her and basically has to be KoolKoal.
I don't think I'll be killed if it's possible, because killing me would basically put KoolKoal on an island - so I expect a NK whether or not it's fulcrum... which will mean we still won't be in mylo tomorrow. So if there is a NK, then we lynch fulcrum.
Apologies to Kosa for letting my temper get the better of me.
I'm pissed mainly because I feel you're being hypocritical in calling on people to not look at behavior instead of modgaming while suspecting me purely based on modgaming. That's not an excuse to tell you to **** off though.

Robert: “Why it appears things are coming along swimmingly, wouldn’t you say so sister?”
Rosalind: “Swimmingly so!”
Robert: “Quite!”
Rosalind: “Indeed”
Robert: “Who is next?”
Rosalind: “It isn’t who is next, it’s who isn’t next, isn’t it brother?”
Robert: “Indeed so.”
Rosalind: “It’s not that one.”
Robert: “Quite right.”
Rosalind: “Lady Comstock, what about her?”
Robert: “Knowledgeable.”
Rosalind: “Eternal.”
Robert: “Ethereal.”
Rosalind: “The Siren?”
Robert: “The Siren.”
Rosalind: “Very well then. Shall we?”
Robert: “We shall.”
Robert: “Greetings Guests!”
Rosalind:”And Salutations too!”
Robert: “We come bearing good news, you see.”
Rosalind: “Do they, brother?”
Robert: “Do they not, sister?”
Rosalind: “Quite not.”
Robert: “How so?”
Rosalind: “Because they hear it.”
Robert: “Oh bother.”
Rosalind: “Tee hee.”
Robert: “As you were.”
Rosalind: “Oh, quite. Yes. You hear, we know who your enemy is.”
Robert: “Indeed we do!”
Rosalind: “It is her.”
As soon as Rosalind pointed to the guest in question, her mask fell off, and her true form revealed: It was the ghost of Lady Comstock. Glossy white — ethereal in appearance, she began howling “NOT OF MY WOMB; NO CHILD OF MINE” at everyone, particularly at the Lutece’s.
“NOT OF MY WOMB — NOT OF MY WOMB”
“She’s gone mental!” exclaimed one guest.
“Elizabeth was her daughter; the seed of the Prophet.”
“Is she angry that Elizabeth is dead?”
“What else could it be?”
As the Siren seemed to settle and peace return to Point Prometheus, the Lutece’s reappeared. Before they could open their mouths, Lady Comstock attacked them, just barely missing the head of Rosalind.
“DEAL WITH HER!” shouted Robert.
“Are you mad?! She’s a freaking ghost witch!”
“Who is going to KILL US ALL if we don’t do something!” shouted back another guest.
Bang.
The room stood silent, still; you could hear a pin drop from a mile away. There stood a guest with a shotgun, they were abundant here on Point Prometheus, smoke billowing from the barrel. At its opposite end lay the Siren, cold, lifeless. Scribbled on the wall behind her were her final words: “Not of womb, that ‘child’ of mine.”
“Is she repudiating Elizabeth?”
“That can’t be! How else would Elizabeth succeed the Prophet?”
“So wait. If Elizabeth is not her daughter, then she’d have no reason to mourn her loss. Does that mean…?”
“… that she wasn’t the killer?”
“But if she isn’t the killer, then that means the Lutece’s deceived us.”
Robert: “One man’s deception”
Rosalind: “is another man’s truth”
Robert: “And another man’s truth”
Rosalind: “is yet another man’s deception.”
Robert: “Constants and variables”
Rosalind: “Constants and variables.”
As the Lutece’s reappeared and captivated the attention of all, they winked at Jeremiah Fink. Fink was the wealthiest man in all of Columbia; he ran sweatshops and slave labour operations whilst making a mint in the process. It was well known that Fink was one of Comstock’s confidants, but none dared to challenge either the Prophet or Fink over the criminal conditions in which workers were subjected to. Hard work, preached the Prophet, was the will of God, and those who rocked the boat were “agents of the Devil” who found their lives cut short by the Columbian Police, whom Fink had a underhand in controlling himself.
The Luteces seem to drone on forever — from truth and deception to right and wrong being one in the same. Their speaking was mesmerising almost, and their wink was the signal that Fink had to die. When they finished up, what was once Point Prometheus had become a Sea of Lighthouses, in every direction, far as the eye could see. There were no bridges or walkways — they materialised as you walked and forged your own path.
But something was amiss. There were five of you in Point Prometheus, yet only four of you in the Sea of Lighthouses. Out on an island, where there stood no lighthouse, was a tall standing tomb. Each of the four guests looked at one another, and collectively marched toward it. It read “here lies Jeremiah Fink.”
Tragedy had struck again.
“Where do we go from here” mused one of the guests.
Robert: “Perhaps that lighthouse?”
Rosalind: “Or maybe that one?”
Robert: “What about that one, all the way over there?”
Rosalind: “No no Robert. Clearly it should be this one, over here.”
Robert: “Constants and variables.”
Rosalind: “Constants and variables.”
Robert: “Someone will ‘win.’”
Rosalind: “Someone will ‘lose.’”
Robert: “But whoever wins.”
Rosalind: “And whoever loses.”
Robert: “Is a matter of perspective”
Rosalind: “is it not?”
DCIII has been killed. His role PM is as follows:
Welcome to BioShock Mafia, DCIII!
You are Guest 06
True Identity: Jeremiah Fink, Town Billionaire and Dirty Cop Warlord
Flavour: A man in the shadows hollered out:
You're dead if you ain't at The Salty Oyster tonight!

Hammer take two.
I don't even
I hope I never get to be a vig in a game with her. She would be dead before the end of RVS.
Occam (and a fair bit of modgaming) says Niv is scum. If by any slim chance Niv is town, then on last Night either 1) scum went for Niv or 2) scum purposefully didn't NK. Scenario 1 hardly makes any sense to me, as DCIII was verbal in his intention to jail Niv (unless he was attempting to WIFOM it or he's the ballsiest scum ever), so scenario 2 is most likely.
If so, what reasons would scum have to avoid NKing?
- Incite major WIFOM to possibly get a free lynch on Niv
- Avoid confirming another townie, considering Kamikaze and myself
- Fear of Fulcrum WIFOMing her watch (if she's town), etc
So whatever was their reasons, if Niv isn't the last scum, it worked: Niv pretty much served as last Night's NK since we just snap-lynched him... and there's nothing to stop them from doing it again.

DC, I'm telling you, if you're town, you're going to die toNight. Are you seriously going to let that happen without giving your thoughts on who we should lynch?
Flaming is bad. Don't do it.

If there is no NK: lynch fulcrum.
If there is an NK and it's DC3: lynch Kool.
If there is an NK but it's not DC3: lynch Kool, jail fulcrum.
Why would we jail me twice in a row if a kill is made?
Kosa is town both based on the fulcrum clear and based on this post. This is a whole lot of unnecessary concern for scum who basically got cleared and could just let this thing go unfettered. I'm not buying into the ninja fear.
Kami is town based on my jail and the fact that there's no way scum would have a second strong man kill, IMO.
Both cleared.
KoolKoal would have had to decide to go with the Cantrip shot (suspecting Cantrip/Generic prior to the end of Day 1 as his top suspect, BTW) - so I think it's possible but very unlikely.
So, if Niv isn't scum, my money is on fulcrum.
There's no way that fulcrum would be able to be jailed and kill though, based on Generic's role - so, if somehow I'm killed tonight, know it isn't her and basically has to be KoolKoal.
I don't think I'll be killed if it's possible, because killing me would basically put KoolKoal on an island - so I expect a NK whether or not it's fulcrum... which will mean we still won't be in mylo tomorrow. So if there is a NK, then we lynch fulcrum.

I'm pissed mainly because I feel you're being hypocritical in calling on people to not look at behavior instead of modgaming while suspecting me purely based on modgaming. That's not an excuse to tell you to **** off though.

Robert: “Why it appears things are coming along swimmingly, wouldn’t you say so sister?”
Rosalind: “Swimmingly so!”
Robert: “Quite!”
Rosalind: “Indeed”
Robert: “Who is next?”
Rosalind: “It isn’t who is next, it’s who isn’t next, isn’t it brother?”
Robert: “Indeed so.”
Rosalind: “It’s not that one.”
Robert: “Quite right.”
Rosalind: “Lady Comstock, what about her?”
Robert: “Knowledgeable.”
Rosalind: “Eternal.”
Robert: “Ethereal.”
Rosalind: “The Siren?”
Robert: “The Siren.”
Rosalind: “Very well then. Shall we?”
Robert: “We shall.”
Robert: “Greetings Guests!”
Rosalind:”And Salutations too!”
Robert: “We come bearing good news, you see.”
Rosalind: “Do they, brother?”
Robert: “Do they not, sister?”
Rosalind: “Quite not.”
Robert: “How so?”
Rosalind: “Because they hear it.”
Robert: “Oh bother.”
Rosalind: “Tee hee.”
Robert: “As you were.”
Rosalind: “Oh, quite. Yes. You hear, we know who your enemy is.”
Robert: “Indeed we do!”
Rosalind: “It is her.”
As soon as Rosalind pointed to the guest in question, her mask fell off, and her true form revealed: It was the ghost of Lady Comstock. Glossy white — ethereal in appearance, she began howling “NOT OF MY WOMB; NO CHILD OF MINE” at everyone, particularly at the Lutece’s.
“NOT OF MY WOMB — NOT OF MY WOMB”
“She’s gone mental!” exclaimed one guest.
“Elizabeth was her daughter; the seed of the Prophet.”
“Is she angry that Elizabeth is dead?”
“What else could it be?”
As the Siren seemed to settle and peace return to Point Prometheus, the Lutece’s reappeared. Before they could open their mouths, Lady Comstock attacked them, just barely missing the head of Rosalind.
“DEAL WITH HER!” shouted Robert.
“Are you mad?! She’s a freaking ghost witch!”
“Who is going to KILL US ALL if we don’t do something!” shouted back another guest.
Bang.
The room stood silent, still; you could hear a pin drop from a mile away. There stood a guest with a shotgun, they were abundant here on Point Prometheus, smoke billowing from the barrel. At its opposite end lay the Siren, cold, lifeless. Scribbled on the wall behind her were her final words: “Not of womb, that ‘child’ of mine.”
“Is she repudiating Elizabeth?”
“That can’t be! How else would Elizabeth succeed the Prophet?”
“So wait. If Elizabeth is not her daughter, then she’d have no reason to mourn her loss. Does that mean…?”
“… that she wasn’t the killer?”
“But if she isn’t the killer, then that means the Lutece’s deceived us.”
Robert: “One man’s deception”
Rosalind: “is another man’s truth”
Robert: “And another man’s truth”
Rosalind: “is yet another man’s deception.”
Robert: “Constants and variables”
Rosalind: “Constants and variables.”
As the Lutece’s reappeared and captivated the attention of all, they winked at Jeremiah Fink. Fink was the wealthiest man in all of Columbia; he ran sweatshops and slave labour operations whilst making a mint in the process. It was well known that Fink was one of Comstock’s confidants, but none dared to challenge either the Prophet or Fink over the criminal conditions in which workers were subjected to. Hard work, preached the Prophet, was the will of God, and those who rocked the boat were “agents of the Devil” who found their lives cut short by the Columbian Police, whom Fink had a underhand in controlling himself.
The Luteces seem to drone on forever — from truth and deception to right and wrong being one in the same. Their speaking was mesmerising almost, and their wink was the signal that Fink had to die. When they finished up, what was once Point Prometheus had become a Sea of Lighthouses, in every direction, far as the eye could see. There were no bridges or walkways — they materialised as you walked and forged your own path.
But something was amiss. There were five of you in Point Prometheus, yet only four of you in the Sea of Lighthouses. Out on an island, where there stood no lighthouse, was a tall standing tomb. Each of the four guests looked at one another, and collectively marched toward it. It read “here lies Jeremiah Fink.”
Tragedy had struck again.
“Where do we go from here” mused one of the guests.
Robert: “Perhaps that lighthouse?”
Rosalind: “Or maybe that one?”
Robert: “What about that one, all the way over there?”
Rosalind: “No no Robert. Clearly it should be this one, over here.”
Robert: “Constants and variables.”
Rosalind: “Constants and variables.”
Robert: “Someone will ‘win.’”
Rosalind: “Someone will ‘lose.’”
Robert: “But whoever wins.”
Rosalind: “And whoever loses.”
Robert: “Is a matter of perspective”
Rosalind: “is it not?”

As much as it's probably Kool for last scum, I'll take a reread on both him and fulcrum just in case.
