Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

The banquet hall had gone into an uproar. There were so many different voices shouting that Germanator found it difficult to catalogue his thoughts. These thoughts were mainly of fire. While the followers of the seven gods squabbled in vain, Germanator knew that only the light of the one true god R'Hollor could grant enlightenment. Germanator would have to use flames to divine an answer but convincing anyone that this was the most prudent course of action would be difficult.

The body of Grand Maester Dylflon had recently been discovered. If accounts could be believed, after being stabbed, Dylflon had used the last of his strength to write the number five in his own blood. Thespis had declared that this was obviously a sign that there were five murderers involved. This of course was a well reasoned argument, but Germanator found the fact that Thespis made his argument in rhyme quite vexing.

Maester Teuthida regaled the court of enchantments and sorceries from the lands in the East. Given the bizarre nature of the death of the servant, either of these conclusions seemed logical. But what Teuthida failed to realize is that he had just thrown the gates open to a witch hunt. Now that there was proof in death of whether or not any person in the room was guilty, many would begin to feel justified in killing. Germanator realized that he would have to use this as much to his advantage as he could. If he could convince the king to give suspects to the flame, he would be able to use the flames to divine the remaining killers and win favour with the realm. It was time to do R'Hollor's work.

Unfortunately, everyone was far too busy throwing accusations around blindly. The septon Typhoid layed the blame at the obvious door, announcing that this could only be the work of Fyacin being the resident professional murderer.

The knight Vampyr shouted in agreement. Then he decided that that made no sense and then accused the septon himself of murder. Just as quickly, Sir Vampyr reaffirmed his accusation against Fyacin as if he had never said anything to the contrary. Queerer still, Sir Vampyr then proceeded to wave around an imaginary sword, shouting at Fyacin and Septon Typhoid. His fellow knight Sir Jeepnut tried to convince Vampyr to sit down, but Vampyr only pointed his sword at Jeepnut and declared him guilty of attempted regicide. Sir Vampyr had taken a mighty hit to the head in the tournament the day before the after-effects of the damage were plain for all to see.

Many other accusations flew around the room, most of them baseless. Sir GameMaster yelled for quiet. He stood up on a table and pointed directly at Sir BreakABone, the Lord Commander of the Royal Guard. “Sir BreakABone is guilty of attempted murder! I overheard him speaking earlier this day of a plot to kill the king and many other people seated in this very room." “Preposterous!” shouted the Queen. “Sir BreakAbone has been in my presence this whole day.”

The eyes of all in the room turned on Sir GameMaster, a local hedge knight who had won glory in yesterday's tournament. Everyone was soon shouting that Sir GameMaster must have been in on the plot if he was so eager to cast blame. The mob surrounded him and would surely have torn him apart had the Queen not intervened a second time. “Give the accused to Lord Germanator. Use the knight's body as kindling so we may root out these other schemers.” A slow smile crept across Germanator's face. The Lord's work would be done.

Later, as Sir GameMaster's body roasted over a small pyre, Germanator stared hard into the flames. No spirit had risen from his body but hopefully he could at least discern something useful. All he saw in the flames was the crazed knight Sir Vampyr. He was surrounded by multiple assailants. These attackers were piercing his body with their blades. Vampyr swung his imaginary sword back at them but to no avail. Germanator looked up from the flames at the doomed knight and pondered warning him of his fate. But he decided perhaps it was better to let him enjoy the rest of his short life.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Fuck.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Exactly. Hopefully we don't lose the rest of our specials this quickly.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

See you in hell, traitorous bastards!

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

You haven't seen the last of meeee!!!

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Ok. I reread the thread and it is totally creepy the way BreakaBone voted and then jeepnut, gamemaster thespis and fox jumped on him. I am aware I was also in there but I would like to dfend my actions in saying 1, I was scared of dying, and 2 the pm capping was shifty. besides, who would point out himself unless he was innocent eh? And with that...

!vote BreakaBone

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

If Disney has taught me anything, it's to never trust the brother or right hand man of the king. Dyne and That Lover of Mario have made my list of questionable fellows.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

^^ And that Mothers are either evil or dead.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Remember: character roles have nothing to do with how good or evil someone is.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Hmm, still difficult to read this round. I'm going to go with my intuition though.

!vote manasecret

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I think it's pretty clear to see that we all jumped him because he screencapped a PM. Well, at least that's the reason I jumped him.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I don't know... would a bad guy really make up and post a PM? I don't think so.

But would that event make an excellent event for the bad guys to vote out a good guy? Yes.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Well, I originally voted for GM because he said "Die" and then he posted some photoshopped PM for whatever reason.

I thought it was creepy and wrong, but honestly, the Mafia most likely didn't vote for GM... if you know an innocent is gonna die... why not fly under the radar.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

that was quite the bad start :(

shit.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

The ones who feel most sorry for the innocent losses are always the bad guys. :p
Seriously, we knew it was a stupid reason to vote for GM. We (you) also did it because the good guys wouldn't want him on our team. He's hard to predict.
It depends on when they voted, doesn't it? If they were the first ones to vote for him, your argument doesn't hold.

The real loss here is Vampyr as the Guardian. That's just stupid... I guess the Mafia killed him because he was pretty tricky in the last Mafia games, while the Vigilante killed him because he was accusing everybody.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Looks like we fucked up pretty nicely on that one.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

The rigors of a witch hunt took hold of us.
We must keep clear has hard as it may be.
I will take a step back my judgment focus.
And make my next vote correct to the T.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Why the hell am I number 16 now? Thats not what I signed up for, City 16 is a cesspool.

I remain with my last vote against the traitor Schadenfreude. A vote towards the Captain is a vote towards death.

!vote Schadenfreude

Also,
Hes got space crazies! I mean, plague crazies!
That or he just likes not making sense.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Gamemaster was truley an evil one at heart, it is good to be rid of him. He had what was coming to him.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I know but when I have no idea who to vote for, my illogical reasoning helps.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I'm going to !vote thatmariolover

No real basis for my choice, but need to pick someone and not sure if I'll be around closer to the voting deadline.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I sense evil in several, but for now, I sense the most evil in one.

!Vote Schadenfreude

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Why are you two voting for schadenfreude?

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Yeah, it's hard to judge people based on the first round. Even though us goodies made a mistake with GM, it's hard to fault the vote just based on how GM was acting...

Anyway, it's still hard for me to pick out the baddies, but maybe if I pray some more I'll figure it out.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Man, we fail at Mafia. The good guys have never won one. Or even done well.



So I think I shall vote for....


!vote Teuthidia

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Im voting for Schadenfreude because he voted against Captain Bond. I think thats a good enough reason.

Yes we have, the very first one I ever played the good guys won. It was the Lost mafia and it came down to two people claiming to be Michael, which I was. So we have done good before, its just really hard.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Good point. I try not to remember things that long ago.


Who was the other man pretending to be micheal?

Lets vote for him

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I remember that! I made Sawyer as my avatar. Fun times.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

*rolls dice*


!vote Dyne

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I guess gonna get a revenge vote

!vote Fyacin

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Does seem suspicious.

!Vote Fyacin.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

!Vote Fyacin

Suspicion abound. We won't really start getting somewhere until we catch one of them. Until then, it is a Witch Hunt. And maybe after.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Turn against me will you!?

!Vote Combine 017

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

An assassin trying to kill the Lord Commander:
To do this in my world is considered a sin,
So for this seemingly obvious case of slander,
I shall make my !Vote Fyacin

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

A gleam in my eyes I begin to respond "How can you turn on me? Even honorable bond?" Then a give a sigh, for my only reply, "Be it not that In vain I die. My last plea, that ye would see, learn from this innocents, watch Thespis and Bone"

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I wish to keep an open mind Fyacin,
And not make the mistakes of the past,
Give me a reason that you're not one of the four assassin,
And I'll reconsider to help you last.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

I never turned against you. You turned against us when you voted for Captain Bond, you traitor.

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Ya know, I'm not really sure, but...

!vote thatmariolover

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Slowly I begin, "Break a Bone it cannot have been."
"For I beleive, if he were to decieve, he could not wear this vote on his sleeve"
"Were I to die, the suspicion would lie, squarly on his head"
"Thus if mafia he be, his silence he would keep, and let someone else take the heat."
!retract Break-a-Bone

"Though it may help my case naught, I ought to kill without any trace of doubt."

Re: Mafia Round 2 - Witch Hunt
 

Haha. Man, I really must seem threatening to you guys. I'm always a popular vote :p

I mean, I know you have to vote for somebody but I hardly think I've given cause.
