MAFIA - DAY TIME

Even then.... Getting an inactive would be potentially better.... (Assuming they poofed away.)

Because of they are inactive, they essentially are a free dead town, (since they aren't doing anything, maf can ignore them.) Of course, we can't get TOO lynch-happy with our inactives.... Because if they are actually town... Well... We might back ourselves into a corner.

I need to get involved.

So, what's the deal so far?

Essentially, there was no night kill. Theories as to why differ, ranging from maf being inactive to being blocked or target healed.
 
I am here- sorry, I keep getting distracted. So no deathes, huh? Well, this is going to be one interesting game.
 
So while I really want to let you figure this out for yourselves, I will once again state there is ONE escort and TWO mafia. There is a 0% chance of both mafia being blocked because there is only one player who can block- the escort- and they may only block one person per night. The doctor's heal is not a roleblock, in case anyone thought it was. I don't want anyone to feel the game is unfair because they didn't understand the rulings, so you may ask for clarification on how the roles function.

Edit:
@Joan theorised "Only one mafia responded and was either blocked by escort or by doctor."
This is possible. My above clarification presumes both mafia respond. So IF both mafia responded they couldn't both be roleblocked. It is possible to have a roleblock and inactive combination though.

Joan also theorised "Both mafia went, but one got cancelled and the doctor healed their victim."
You do NOT need any mafia to be roleblocked for the doctor's heal to save the mafia's target. While this is a possible situation that the mafia were roleblocked AND their target was healed, the target would be saved from death regardless of whether the mafia were roleblocked.

All other theories so far are also possible.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I personally never assumed that there was more than one Escort or more than one 'role block' because I figured nobody would split hairs over it and would realize that any implication of there being two would include the Doctor... if that makes sense to anyone else on the planet. XD

I'm just making sure :P

So what we concluded is there are four possibilities to this no death

A) Both Mafia were inactive.

B) One was inactive and the other was roleblocked ( by doctor or escort)

C) Both were active and didn't want to kill.

D) Both were active and both were roleblocked by either the escort or doctor.

Yep!

@thatguyinthestore and @tigertruth have yet to check in, which makes me a wee bit suspicious, but I'm not sure if I want to make any nominations yet.

as far as possibilities go,

A is correct

B is partially correct. the escort roleblocks, the doctor doesn't roleblock.

C is also a correct possibility

D is incorrect. Both CAN'T be roleblocked. only one roleblocking role is in the game.

however, the Doctor CAN protect the attack target, thus effectively making it a no-kill. (but that isn't a roleblock so to say. since the attack is still technically being done.)




So our only real lead is towards the inactives currently?

Basic principle is still correct even if the technicalities aren't.

And yep, that's our only lead.

*shrug* fair enough.

Just was making sure, so that there isn't confusion down the line with differences between roleblock and heal. After all.... never know what the maf could use to confuse.
 
Just a reminder that you need to nominate players to be lynched.

Do we have to, though? Because in that case, the mafia can just turn this entire game into a large Russian roulette by never killing anyone.

They've still got a detective hunting for them, and even if they didn't, they currently have a 20% chance of one of them being lynched. That chance grows greater every round. While it would take a minimum of eight rounds for them to win using this method, there's only a slight chance of that happening. Besides, that's something that you can use to determine who's mafia, since you can pick out who's most likely to do that.

I keep forgetting the investigator. My bad.
 
I mean- I guess we can nominate one of the Afks.
 
Nomination for thatguyinthestore is confirmed.
(I'll say this every time just so you know I haven't missed nominations)
