Round 3 - OOC

Wow...I think that's the first time I ever saw someone saved!

!!!

Clearly someone thought myself and Slipnish were getting too close to the mafia coven? Taking out Slipnish would be too obvious as he'd vocalised his suspicions and voted first, I just voted that way without saying anything, even though I've found all of Four Wind's posts to be reeking of mafiadom (throwing mud any which way) and have access to other more solid information.

Well I'm marked now, so I guess I won't be making it to the end, but don't let Evil Solomon Caine and his brethen get away with it! Besides... I should be safe to bring more info to you over the next few days at least.

i repeat: Solomon Caine IS Mafia

Nice save, Doc.

*pumps fist* god dammit, I fucking -love- it when that happens. GG DOCTOR!

*feels good*

Well Yo Ho Ho indeed! Go doc! Happy Buoyancy, Squirrel Lips!

arty2 time for a fancy emoticon!

Woowoo, that's super cool! Yay for the doctor le

I forget, but do we know who the doctor is or is that also a secret?

Laha

Either way, good save though, as it tells us for sure who ISN'T part of the mafia...
-which should make him safe...

...for now...hehehehe

Laha

The roles of the doctor and the sheriff are a secret.

I fail to see how Squirrel Lips is safe though. From a lynch, perhaps, although not being Mafia doesn't mean he's not the SK (not that I think he is, I'm just pointing it out).

In addition now the Mafia can gamble on the odds of Squirrel Lips being saved a second time. You can only save someone twice, including yourself, if you're the doctor. So the Mafia can take another stab at him later on in the game if they want, or the SK could take him out at a later date. Or they can try again on the very next hit, and gamble on the doctor not saving him twice in a row.

*shrug* I wouldn't call him safe by a longshot, unless you're betting on his getting lynched tomorrow night, which I'd say is probably not gonna happen unless some seriously convincing evidence of his being the SK pops up.

From Mystique's profile:


I think this is very similar to squirrel lips' "death".

The only thing that could be surmised then is that Slipnish is the Doctor, and lemmy101 is the Sherrif. That would explain the co-ordinated voting and fact that lemmy101 survived the rather crude Mafia Hit that took place.

Although the potential Doctor could certainly be fooled by someone claiming to be the Sheriff, though that would place Captain Jessop back as a townie, or more insidious, a very clever Serial Killer.

I can't see the Doctor working with Mafia, there's no advantage in that. But if Slipnish is the Doctor then I can't see the Mafia making the same mistake twice.

Of course I could be mistaken, and there's a third party involved. But wow, just wow.

Wooden torso for the win!


Will look at the Mafia in post in detail later after work. But I will take the time to point out hints that would seem to point the "bony finger" at Captain Caine.

The whole scene "Yo Ho Ho and a Barrel of Rum" just seemed odd.

Solomon Caine could definitely said to be "somber" ("grim faced") although "mirthless" is another term for humorless, which is definitely at odds with Solomon Caine as a potential Mafia who faced down Captain Jessop as the gathered Mafia "exchanged glances and smiles." (Solomon Caine is "grim faced, " has a "silent bearing" and he doesn't seem the type to idly exchange glances. In fact people tend to find his gaze to be an "unpleasant sensation.")

Captain Jessop was knocked out from behind. Certainly Caine has an "imposing frame" and most likely the physical ability to easily knock any man or woman out.

Captain Caine is "steely eyed", all the Mafia drew swords on Captain Jessop. Granted, we don't know what Captain Caine's preferred method of execution/killing is but he has left "A trail of looted Galleons from the Spanish Maine to burning hulks in the pirate infested seas of the Caribbean." That would indicate experience with boarding ships - which involves melee weapons and/or firearms.

Is "boney hand of death" a reference to a Flag (Captain Caine's has a hand on it, but hardly boney), or the fact that "The natives called him (Captain Caine) 'Pale Walker?"

Given the "efficiency of the Captain (Caine) and his crew" it does seem unlikely they would make Captain Jessop walk the plank. It would be far easier to sink Captain Jessop and his boat, or kill him outright without any messing about.

That's all for now, unless the SK makes an appearance...

Four Winds, nothing you said can be taken at face values, as you are, without a shadow of a doubt, Mafia.

If you were a townie, you wouldn't oust the doctor and sherriff in a million years, you'd be trying to deflect attention from them in case they got killed by.... the mafia, for example?

That's all moot, as you ARE mafia. Not maybe. You ARE.

Interestingly, I sent Slipnish a PM last nite after the vote, saying I "suspected Caine" and was glad I wasn't the only one. No reply, I assumed I came off as suspicious by reaching out to another townie. Another possibility was that his vote against you was a diversion, and now you're trying to sell a fellow mafia as the doctor, though that's totally unfounded, I'm just throwing out there I don't *know* one way or another what the deal with Slipnish is except to say NOT the doc OR sherrif.

If Caine survives the next lynch, then justice will not have been served. ;(

I need to start bringing my spreadsheet to work :\. Gee, who was it who had a skellie arm, sticking out, holding something, something...a mop, perhaps? Boney hand of death indeed *raises eyebrow at Tor*

*giggles* man, I'm too freakin happy to think about seriously accusing anyone, though. I got a smile on my face like this big

: D

"boney hand of death"?



Too obvious? I guess skull and crossbone type motiffs aren't axactly rare among pirates

(oh and to answer something someone asked last round that I missed, I'm my own parrot. Ginger Ears is on his own, even if we do share the same ship )

Too much implication towards Bontempe as the SK, imo. It fits better. And the boney hand of death made me think of Tor, too, but is that perhaps a bit obvious? I dunno. Regardless, it's definitely telling.

Mafia Hit title:
"Yo Ho Ho and a Barrel of Rum"

From Nova's bio:
"Well it started with a bottle of rum. Yo ho ho, and all that."

Probably a bit too obvious, like the skeletal hand maybe, but still got my attention.

There is also something in Nova's bio that caught my attention:
"she discovered that many other abilities came naturally to her, such as leadership..."

GF maybe?

As well as her "softness of letting prisoners go instead of killing them"...and how she "captured prisoners and tortured them"...

The first mafia scenario, they didn't kill the victim, but left him to suffer and be killed by the SK

The second mafia scenario the victim fell back onto the wheel, and suffered as they died, but the mafia didn't actually kill them.

And the last mafia scenario they again didn't kill Jessop outright, but thought to make him suffer by drowning.

I think we can ignore this. The bio was done before random roles were handed out. Unless of course they weren't random.



Interesting, but it wouldn't sway me, personally, without more.

Then its a good thing I wasn't aiming at swaying you :P lol

Seriously, I'm just trying to find anything I think is related. Hearing Merrick mention Nova reminded me I had seen some things earlier.
