Mafia After Dark - Night 6: Goodfellas

[Tamamono]

Players only, please!

August 28th, 2005

New Brickland, Florida

9:59 P.M.

After an unusually quiet day, the family gathers once again before the Malone Hotel and Casino.

The serious situation at hand has made several of the remaining family members go completely batty.

Priscilla has been blow-drying her hair for five straight hours now.

Her boss, Mr. Nuccitelli, has convinced himself that he's Frank Sinatra, and is singing into his cane.

"I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter~

And make believe it came from you~"

Behind him, Candy wraps her arms around him, practically slobbering over this hunk of man. It's the fedora. Did you know that wearing a fedora makes you both fashionable and attractive to ladies?

Behind Priscilla, Colin's back to his old self again - he writhes on the ground, shrieking, as the bright rays of light hit him.

"BILLLYYYYYY" he screams.

Behind Colin, Penelope tries to arrest Tam, convincing herself that she's still serving the public somehow.

Tam just gives a heavy sigh.

And, of course, we all know what Cebastian just did.

If Amelia (or Amanda or whatever the hell he calls his car) could breathe, she'd be breathing long, hard, heavy automobile breaths.

Fed up with all this tomfoolery, Tam loses his patience and fires a gun in the air.

"Quiet!" he screams.

Penelope shows her true colors and runs away.

Luckily for Tam, this grabs the attention of most of the family.

"I have just about had it with you idiots and your incessant dicking around!" he hollers at them, no longer worried about how much noise he's making. The citizens of New Brickland have long learned that the Night belongs to the Malones.

"You all want to dance around and party? Celebrate? Behave like complete nincompoops? What's there to celebrate, I ask??" Tam rants at them. "Last night you made me kill another loyal Malone - Terrence Knox. Ace job, hotshots!"

"Now, I don't have a lot of faith in you morons anymore, but I'm giving you this last chance - find me a Ferrari. Then you can dance around and celebrate!"

[Kristel]

Shit. Not what I was expecting.

(Because it's all about me:) Why am I not in any of the pictures? I didn't even get a mention. Was I meant to be dead by now?

[CorneliusMurdock]

I second your "shit", sis. I was so certain that he was scum. Why go after me like that if he wasn't? It makes no sense at all.

Okay, so three scum left, then. Which means only four of us are loyal Malones.

Kris, I know town is me and you right now. If you can confirm a third (if the protector is still alive [which I assume to be the case since the scum didn't kill any of us]), we'd only need to figure out the fourth town member and the rest would be scum. If you could get in touch with me, we can try to figure this out.

I feel like a broken record right now but... Investigator, if you're still out there, we need you. Even one result from you could guarantee a win for us here.

[Cecilie]

Guess I'm third in line here: Shit. Really?! Crap....

Ok ok, focus. We're still here, so we still have a chance. I'd say the three remaining scum are Candy, Priscilla and Peter then. We should get Candy lynched today since she couldn't be killed.

[Peanuts]

Alright, didn't expect that.

Terrence is town, so either the Hippie included Dexter, or it's me or Cebastian. I know it's not me.

We know Colin and Kristina are no Lamborghinis, and Candy still is almost confirmed to be one (why else would she still be alive?).

That leaves Cebastian, Priscilla and Penelope. My guess would be Priscilla and Cebastian, again, Cebastian because of the list and Priscilla for behaving scummy.

[mostlytechnic]

That leaves Cebastian, Priscilla and Penelope. My guess would be Priscilla and Cebastian, again, Cebastian because of the list and Priscilla for behaving scummy.

Dang, everyone keeps just throwing out that I'm scummy, and Cebastian is the only one who's actually given any REASONS... so, let me answer his thoughts from earlier....

1. This was your second post I think. And here's your explanation for why you're voting for Dexter. Now, at this point Dexter had 4 votes and you had 2. It seemed clear that Dexter would be lynched and not you, and your first argument is that you're trying to save yourself. Wow, that's townie of you... Now, I get that it's hard to come in in that position, but I feel you had the wrong focus from the get-go here.

2. This was in the following day. You're clearly trying to make a point here that you wouldn't change your vote. But if you're town, why make such a fuss about if you were online or not? If you were town, there would be no reason for you to want to change your vote off Dexter to save him. Online or not.

3. Here you're trying to get Kristina to reveal information about this unkillable investigator. No townie would need that information. But a scum would need it to know if they can safely claim investigator or not.

4. Here it is again, the scum mindset. Highlighted for your convenience. If you were town, wouldn't you be more interested in who is our biggest asset?

5. And then it's what Peter's already pointed out today. A townie wouldn't need to speculate about who has PRs. If you were town, you would rather want to try your best to cloud such things to make it hard for scum to guess who our PRs are

(numbered your comments to make it easier to respond)

1. Actually, there's a lot more to my reasoning on that Dex vote than just saving myself. I gave plenty of justification for the vote even without it being for my own defense. And since when is trying to save myself - when I know that I'm town - NOT behaving townie? Of course a townie wants to save themselves over a scum!

2. That response was to Pen saying that I'm scum and would have changed my vote to save Dexter. And I was saying the same thing as you - I had no reason to save Dex and my not being around proved that - if I was scum, I would have made a point of being around to change my vote last minute to save him.

3. No, I wasn't asking who the investigator was or anything like that. I was asking what INFO they had, since we're near the end and it's critical that we don't lynch any more town! So even if all the investigator had was confirmation of who is town that's left, that's still valuable info. We can't afford any mistakes!

4. You use a single word choice to try to say I'm scum? Get a life. That was obviously in the context that I was stating how the scum would see it, so of course I used terms that represented their perspective.

5. Again with the hypotheticals as to people's roles. Not like I was stating anything but the obvious there. So again, get over it.

Satisfied yet? Everything you pointed out was baseless and pointless.

Now, as for today... we've got 7 people left. We can officially state that the scum had 4 members at most, since we've gotten 1 and the game isn't over. I think it's pretty obvious that Candy is one of the remaining scum. So tonight's lynch should be easy. After that and whoever Colin kills (assuming he's actually on our side and hunting scum...) we'll see. I'm still not confident on him anymore since he survived too. You gotta think the scum targetted him. So either we've got a protector left that protected the right person, or he's bulletproof and therefore a SK. So for that reason, can anyone confirm whether or not we still have a protector? Wait till tomorrow on that, since tonight we can lynch Candy and there's no rush to consider Colin till tomorrow night. But at that point, I think the existence of a protector (or lack of one) will be vital info to make the right call on him.

[Cecilie]

if I was scum, I would have made a point of being around to change my vote last minute to save him.

You would have made a point about being around if you were scum, really? Just so we would be sure of your scumminess?

Satisfied yet? Everything you pointed out was baseless and pointless.

Not really, no . You may think it's baseless, but you can't erase what's been said. That's why it's called slipping up And what do you mean I need to get a life? I have my beautiful red car to share my life with!

I think the existence of a protector (or lack of one) will be vital info to make the right call on him.

Oh wouldn't you like to know?

I think we're going to let Kristina be the judge of when this becomes vital information that needs to be shared in public. We wouldn't want to make it easier for you to pick your kills now, would we?

[mostlytechnic]

You would have made a point about being around if you were scum, really? Just so we would be sure of your scumminess?

If I was scum trying to save Dex, then yes, I would have made sure to be around at the last minute to switch my vote. That's what I was being accused of. The fact that I wasn't doesn't prove that I'm town (since as you point out, most scum won't reveal themselves to save another), but it does negate that accusation.

I think we're going to let Kristina be the judge of when this becomes vital information that needs to be shared in public. We wouldn't want to make it easier for you to pick your kills now, would we?

And that's exactly why I specifically said to WAIT TO REVEAL IT. There's no reason to tell the scum that info today. However, TOMORROW it will be vital in judging whether to lynch Colin as SK or trust him as town vig. And with only 5-6 people left then, it'll be worth revealing it in order to make that decision, IMHO.

[Peanuts]

Why should we discuss TOMORROW whether or not to lynch Colin? I don't see how the fact that he survived incriminates him. Didn't he take the hardhat before? Why would he do so if he was bulletproof?

Also, we don't have the time to lynch him. Neither right now nor tomorrow. In order to do so we need to be ahead of the scum, which we would be if

A) Colin takes out scum or

B) The scum fail to kill

There will be no reason to lynch him either way.

Not to mention that he still seems to work with us. Once again you are too focused on someone who is working with us instead of the scum.

Also, how does bulletproofness indicate SKness?

[mostlytechnic]

We need to consider Colin at some point, since if he IS SK then we have to take him out to win. As long as scum are going down, great, we can wait on him. But if all the scum are gone then we'd have to take him out since A) that's part of our win condition and B) he'll take out town. Heck, at this point he's batting 0 in taking out scum, so, not sure just how valuable he's been to us. You SAY he's working with us, but it sure looks questionable (yes, I know he's been taking out suspected people, and we haven't exactly done great at getting scum either, but still... )

And bulletproofness doesn't prove SK, but it sure suggests it. I'd say a SK is much more likely to be bulletproof than a vig.

Did he take hardhat, I don't recall him ever saying that. If he did, then it would likely have been to make sure no one ELSE had it, since he couldn't have known who else got the riddle right. And whether you're vig or SK, you sure wouldn't want anyone else being kill-proof. But more importantly, you can scratch all that logic out the window because he did NOT take the hard hat. *I* took it. Well, the previous Priscilla did, but whatever. I didn't say anything before because it didn't seem relevant with all the hoopla about the infamous list. But what this does show is that he did not take it (sorry, I don't know what order I took it, so I can't say whether he had the chance to take it or not - so perhaps it wasn't an option for him, but perhaps it was and he passed it up because he didn't need it.)

Now that I think about it, didn't he take the extra vote?

[Peanuts]

Now that I think about it, didn't he take the extra vote?

Right, he did. Sorry, my bad.

IF he is the SK, we'll have to take him out eventually. But since there are at least two, maybe three scum members left, that's really not a prevalent concern right now.

[Kristel]

IF he is the SK, we'll have to take him out eventually. But since there are at least two, maybe three scum members left, that's really not a prevalent concern right now.

Why would you suggest there are potentially only two scum left? That would mean that they started with three, which I think we all agree would be very unlikely.

[CorneliusMurdock]

Could you be more transparent, Priscilla? How do you know who the scum targeted? Why does it seem that you're just fishing for information about a possible protector?

And why don't you care about finding the last scummos? This SK thing has gone on long enough. It's not working to save you. It's pretty obvious whose side I'm on and the rest of the town knows it.

Why don't you make up stuff about something else and bus one of your buddies? Tell Pete or Penelope how scummy they are.

[Tamamono]

Voting is now open. With 7 alive, it takes 4 to lynch.

48 hours until Dawn

[Peanuts]

Why would you suggest there are potentially only two scum left? That would mean that they started with three, which I think we all agree would be very unlikely.

Well, it's pretty unlikely.

Anyway, I'll vote: Candy Nelson (Captain Nemo). She's the obvious candidate.

[CorneliusMurdock]

Really, I think this is a no brainer. Only one person is the scummiest scumster in Scumsville.

Goodbye, Candy.

Vote: Candy (Captain Nemo)

[Tamamono]

Vote Count

Candy Nelson (Captain Nemo) - 2 (Peanuts, CorneliusMurdock)

47.5 hours until Dawn.

[Kristel]

Vote: Candy Nelson (Captain Nemo) for obvious reasons.

Candy Nelson (Captain Nemo) - 3 (Peanuts, CorneliusMurdock, Kristel)

45.5 hours until Dawn.

[Cecilie]

Hasn't even bothered to show up today. Time to go, Candy:

Vote: Candy (Captain Nemo)

[Palathadric]

Okay, Terrence is town. No good. I agree that Candy is scum, so I may as well just

Vote: Candy (Captain Nemo)

Now let me put my head together.

We know that among:

Kristina, Cebastian, and Peter - 1 Scum

Myself, Colin, Priscilla, and Candy - 2 Scum.

Am I correct? I think we can all be pretty sure that there are least four scum, so this has to be about right.

Wait, let me check something...

Colin, by when do you need to have your action submitted?

[mostlytechnic]

Vote: Candy (Captain Nemo)

[Tamamono]

Vote Count

Candy Nelson (Captain Nemo) - 6 (Peanuts, CorneliusMurdock, Kristel, Cecilie, Palathadric, mostlytechnic)

35 hours until Dawn.

[CorneliusMurdock]

Colin, by when do you need to have your action submitted?

It can be any time during this phase. But I think I have that figured out. Anything more about that may tip our hat.

[Palathadric]

I was just thinking on whether or not we can take Colin's word that he's the vig? The last time the vig has killed was on Night 4. Since then, Terrence and Bernard both have gotten killed. Could one of them be the vig instead and Colin was just stating that he was.

Oh, yeah, I'm great with conspiracy theories.

Anyway, as far as Terrence is concerned. I am sure he was not the vig. If he were, he certainly would have said something to prevent his lynch and call Colin's bluff. Now, with Bernard that's a different story. Bernard seemed to accept Colin's claim relatively quickly and even barked at me when I mentioned that we could not necessarily attribute the Night kill to Colin. Is it possible that Bernard was the vig and he and Colin had an agreement so the scum would focus on Colin instead? Sounds doubtful. They would have had to have been in private communication for that. Kristina, I guess with your action any private communications need to go over you, correct?

Okay. Well, in that case, this doesn't make an abundance of sense. I suppose we will just wait to see if the vig gets another kill tonight. In any case, it seems very doubtful that Colin is not the killer he claims to be, so that make me fairly confident that he is with us.

Now Kristina most people seem to quickly accept as town, but I don't know if we have much proof that actually supports it.

Sorry, my thoughts are all jumbled. Kristina, is Person A still alive? It seems like we have a doctor among us since the scum did not get their night kill. However, if Person A is dead, and confirmed town, then that means that, either we have a bullet-proof person among us, whom the scum tried to kill, or the scum did not kill, for some weird reason, to make us think that.

Okay, so only one of Kristina, Cecilie, and Peter are on the same team. If my suspicions are true, I cannot possibly think of a reason why Cecilie and Kristina would be on different teams.

Colin seems to be close to them as well, but that doesn't necessarily clear him. However, as my wacko headwork above pointed out, to me at least, it would take a magnificent scum, with an awful lot of luck, to pull off a pretense of being the vig in the way Colin would have to, if he were scum, so I seriously doubt that is the case. Of course, there is always the possibility that he’s the SK, or whatever, but I’d rather not go there now as it seems a waste of time.

In that case, I think, unless the scum have us completely fooled, that the remaining members of the scum team have to be Priscilla, Candy, and Peter.

I don’t want to jump to conclusions too quickly, as I thought a while back that I had the scum team well outlined, but two of my suspects turned out to be town, but it’s the only thing that seems to make sense, from what I know. Can anyone think of something different?

I apologize for the messiness of the above statements. Sometimes just talking helps me clarify my thoughts.
