The Tick Mafia - JUSTICE PREVAILS!

[Ragian]

so whoever visited sonic on night 2 is manipulating him because a couple of things i dont mention yet lets see how the day plays

Well, this is bullshit. If you have info, you should share it in the interest of hunting scum. Sitting on info is anti-town.

[Charle]

I agree, Bax is now in difficult situation and other things to be concerned about at the moment. All the best mate!

Back to the game, traffic is now on L-2 and we should get some more clear claim from him.

Meantime I am going to start to rock Darin's boat.

I'm getting jitters that Strike, Pix, and Charle are our last scum. They're so intertwined now. They're not playing scummily, but there is just that unsettling thought.

@Pepe, if whoever we lynch turns out not town and one or more of the three above are on the lynch, you take them out.

Paranoid Rage out for the day.

Is it weird that I had the same thought this morning?

I was thinking either the 3 of them are town with everything well explained. Or the 3 of them made the greatest story as Scum.

Pix "confirmed" Strike move - Strike is indeed Roleblocker and then Charle made up a role to give more credibility to Pix.
but I think Pix has commented honestly, specially when he was after strike and when we tought he visited you instead of Pix N2. So I toos the idea aside.

Very weird. Strike will go nuts when he reads this

You wanna go nuts? LET'S GET NUTS!

Now, 5 townies are already dead and only 1 scummie + 2 Third parties.


Murdered townies:
Extreme Ways / "Sgt. Doodlehead" (Citizen, Cop): Killed N3 visited Pix on N1 and SoN!c on N2
Charle / "Dr. Mung Mung" (Citizen, Doctor): Shot N1
Loose Canon / "Bi-Polar Bear" (Citizen, Odd Day Voteless, Even Day Double-voter): Shot N2 by Pepe Town Vig
Maxleod / "Captain Mucilage" (Citizen, Delayer): Modkilled D2 : no actions
DukeHazzard / "Uncle Creamy" (Citizen, Miller, 2-Shot Vanillaiser): Shot N2 : i was vanilla iced on N2, i think by Duke. Pix said he was vanilla iced as well? (He was saying he got a cold just as i)
So im guessing Duke used his 2-Shot Vanillaiser N1 on me and Pix

dead scum:
fusibaseball / "Shiela Eel" (Mafia, Electrifier): Blown up N2


dead Third parties (2)
DirtyDishSoap / "The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight" (Third-party, Time-Bomber, Hider, 1-Shot Smoke Bomb): Lynched D3
Razorvich / "Barry Hubris" (Third Party, Loved, Condemner): Lynched D2


Town list:
*Pixar* : is town, confirmed by EW visit N1, confirmed by Charle tasting "lots of legs" and claims to be 4-legged man-tracker, Confirmed by Strike

PepeAtila: is the town vig 100% Confirmed from night scene. N3-NA

Charle must be town: his ability checked out, confirmed by Swang and Pix. Can't see his ability being scumpower? I think Degaston gave him a new role instead of swapping with the role that was ment to be for Drake tho (to not take any risks Drake would disperse his role information to somebody else like on whatsapp)

Strike : sounds genuine to me - he is searching for scum and he "searched" me enough. Strike claims The Doorman-Roleblocker with following actions: N1-Son!c confirmed by Pix. N2-Pix confirmed through Pix getting no result. N3-Swang. Supported by Pix seeing him go nowhere

Ragian: town, only that last "paranoid" post baffles me a bit, especially when Traf said he had the exact same idea this morning on "Strike, Charle and Pixar being our last 3 scum"??.

So that leaves the following suspects:

swang918: good theories, claims to be the mayor, after Charle's ability to taste "red tape". Says he can't be 3p because there can't be more then 2 in the game. I have no clue if that is so, its my first game. Votes for Bax. I think 3p but if 2 is the max then he should be town. The mayor can't be scum if he's not 3p. Ofcourse the mayor claim is not confirmed..

Trafalgarlaw01: claims Crusading Chameleon-Absorber. Not confirmed. Same role 3p DDS claimed
Mafia wiki gives following play advice for that role:
As Town, an Absorber is much more powerful if it can absorb something self-protective, as it can then safely claim and start organising night actions to make itself more powerful. Unfortunately, there are very few active roles that allow a player to self-protect. Barring that, it's probably best to keep your role secret, otherwise you're likely to get nightkilled; the scum almost certainly have some way to bypass Doctor protection if there's an Absorber in the setup.
So what seems strange to me is why TrafalgarLaw was not killed that night but EW instead? Trafalgar the "certain good kill" but instead going for EW and take a gamble (for mafia if Traf is town)
Law just being alive after that night makes him a strong suspect

traffic133: softclaims Carpeted Man with no actions during one of the nights. Says whoever visited SoN!c on night 2 is manipulating SoN!c because a couple of things he does not want to mention yet "lets see how the day plays"
Says his only power is a static boom boobytrap if scum visits him during the night but did not try anything to make scum visit him all game long.

Darin44: no claim; said in the beginning of the game he has reading and writing difficulties "I was afraid to post anything. because it don't matter what I someone will thank its scummy" "I miss spelled a word you are lucky I even right anything, It hard for me to spell anything I have to think real hard to do so". So why do you wanna play a reading game then?

General Bax: said it's CRYSTAL clear he's town and is after Swang, that's about it. Never explained why it should be clear, let alone "crystal clear". It would take 5 minutes to post a claim on L-1 but he did not wanted to do so for days , and now he wont for many more days because he is in Israel with the Hamas situation unfolding

I mostly agree with this list. I will say that I believe that EW was chosen for the kill because of how hard he had hinted at some type of investigative role. As I mentioned earlier, I thought he was hinting at a role cop or something else that allowed him to know who had thrown the smoke bomb but his sudden hard read on Son!c being town may have given scum the idea he was cop.

That said, until Traf actually absorbs a power and it can be backed up by evidence, his role is unprovable and his counter claim remains the best evidence of his towniness.

so whoever visited sonic on night 2 is manipulating him because a couple of things i dont mention yet lets see how the day plays

Well, this is bullshit. If you have info, you should share it in the interest of hunting scum. Sitting on info is anti-town.

Also, unless he has a hard read based on analysis of posts, he just basically soft claimed a power that contradicts his earlier claim of a passive role.

Ok traffic the day is now played. I would start to mention whatever true or false info you may have.

Also giving BAX a break here in Day 4 because of Israel happenings. Would like to revisit him once things settle down.

[SoN!c]

Also giving BAX a break here in Day 4 because of Israel happenings. Would like to revisit him once things settle down.

Bax is on a active game load of 180 games and did not miss any turns in the 40+ games i checked today.

So he has time to play 180 active games but he has no time whatsoever for even 2 minutes answering a L-1 claim for days?. Silent for weeks??? Heeeeuuuu??? Long before Hamas attacked btw. Sorry. If Hamas is bothering you then you don't play your 180 games today and yesterday. Israel flag on your wall or not. Playing a 180 active game load yesterday and today = you got 3 minutes here too if that is the real reason.. No, he does not want to answer


2023-10-09 18:43:04 - General Bax deployed 4 troops on Almeria
2023-10-09 18:43:06 - General Bax assaulted Murcia from Almeria and conquered it from FrecklesMgee
2023-10-09 18:43:16 - General Bax reinforced Murcia with 2 troops from Granada
2023-10-09 18:43:17 - General Bax ended the turn and got spoils

Yes he plays fast but it's xroads / mrgrateful style "fast play". Bax has 63,515 completed games, x-roads 29,018 , mrgrateful 30,445 so that's just the playing style. Been there done that sonic style If you have time to take a 180 active game load without missing turns, those 3 more minutes won't mind at all

[swang918]

Holy crap--amazing find. I'm keeping my vote on Bax.

[Darin44]

ok here it is I'm just an average Joe. I have no powers I have no night action so I am town so with that said am I the only one without any powers

[strike wolf]

ok here it is I'm just an average Joe. I have no powers I have no night action so I am town so with that said am I the only one without any powers

Character name?

[strike wolf]

On second thought, I'm pretty sure I know who you are claiming. I still think you should say the name to clarify just so that everyone's on the page without anyone saying it for you.

[TrafalgarLaw01]

ok here it is I'm just an average Joe. I have no powers I have no night action so I am town so with that said am I the only one without any powers

Is there a chance for a player with 0 powers. I think so but not sure

[Charle]

ok here it is I'm just an average Joe. I have no powers I have no night action so I am town so with that said am I the only one without any powers

It is hard to buy this one.
1. What is the name of the character and
2. How do you know you are the ONLY one without powers, seems a bit made up to me.

[Ragian]

Character name, please, Darin. And do you know for a fact that you're the only one without any powers?

[Darin44]

ok here it is I'm just an average Joe. I have no powers I have no night action so I am town so with that said am I the only one without any powers

Character name?

Arthur

[strike wolf]

ok here it is I'm just an average Joe. I have no powers I have no night action so I am town so with that said am I the only one without any powers

Arthur

This is what I was thinking. Arthur is 100% a character that would be town in this game. His wiki bio also calls him an average Joe. So outside of a counter claim, Darin is cleared in my eyes.

[Charle]

If Darin is town, then it leaves us basically with Bax and Traffic.

I will change my vote so that both are on L-2 and we can decide once they replied.

Unvote

Vote Bax

[Charle]

Sorry, Traffic is on L-1 and Bax on L-2

[*Pixar*]

I'm thinking a hammer on traffic is needed. Has had plenty of time to discuss his information and has yet to come back to reply

[Ragian]

Stay alert, Pepe.

[swang918]

I prefer to lynch Bax on principle. Using an actual war as an excuse to try to avoid responding here, while still playing in 100 games? That's scummy and not just in a mafia way. And just in game terms he is more likely to be scum than traffic as well, with his all caps trust me defense

You wanting Bax so bad and Bax wanting you gives me the creeps. You guys are either 3p with a mission to kill the other or you are both scum acting like this for best defense? But if that is the case i don't get Bax his silent / absent play..

Also Darin claiming to be Arthur does not clear him. Arthur can fly because of his suit and is the one that always comes up with the plan to defeat the vilains. Why would Darin have no powers in this mafia game? Surely Degaston would give the main sidekick of The Tick some power here?

Darin is last to claim except Bax. How convenient he claims Arthur.

It is a bit odd but the role is as important to the show as the Tick. So he or Bax have to be Arthur and I already trusted Darin more than Bax before the claim. We could technically lynch Bax and if he flipped Arthur than we know the next step but I feel more confident about Traffic as a lynch.

Connections list:

Me list:

The Doorman-Role blocker. Scum if Charle and Pix are scum. No counter claim on town role blocker.

Infallible town list:

1. Ragian-The Tick. No connections needed.
2. Pepe-Vigilante-no connections needed.

100% town if no counter claim:

1. Darin-Arthur. Other than me defending him now, I don't recall any notable connections. Someone correct me if I'm mistaken.

High probability town:

1. Son!c-Die Fledermaus. Almost certainly got an innocent result from our dead cop, EW. More likely to be scum if Bax and/Or traffic are town and/or Swang/Charle are scum. The connection between Swang and Son!c feels pretty flimsy and mostly coincidental. I also feel good about reading charle town. So I'm pretty confident at this point that Son!c is town.
2. Pix-Four-Legged Man-Tracker. Could only be scum if Charle and me are scum or charle is scum and scum has a watcher who was watching Son!c night 1 to know I visited Son!c. Pretty confident in town read. Just don't see many avenues that make sense with him being scum.
3. Charle-Tonguetongue-Flavor cop. I don't think the role proves alignment but actions make sense for town and are backed up by Pixar. Has also mostly acted in a town fashion. Could be connected to Son!c, pix or me but reading former two as town and hes only connected to me through me and him being the two giving the most credence to Pix's claim. So feeling confident on his towniness.

Maybe town:

1. Traf-Successfully counter claimed DDS with Crusading Chameleon-Absorber claim. Hasn't strongly connected himself with anyone directly that I recall but could be possible 3rd scum alongside some combination between Bax Traffic and Swang if Crusading Chameleon was given as a fake claim.

Scummy:

1. Swang-Mayor Blank-Tastes like Red Tape. Seemed scummy earlier but has been acting slightly more like town recently. Seems to be steering the wagon towards Bax. Him and Bax have been against each other especially the last day or so. Bax has been more strongly against him than he has been against Bax. Could be trying to defend scumbuddy Traffic or distance from scumbuddy Bax or even a combination of the two. Definitively more scummy if Traffic is scum.
2. Bax-no claim. Crystally town according to him. Very against Swang.

Very Scummy:

1. Traffic-Carpeted Man-Claimed passive ability but also suggested he knew something about son!c which with current info looks like a contradiction. Voting against Bax. Possibly self-preservation attempt or distancing attempts. Indirect connection to swang. Scummier if Swang were to flip scum or Bax town.

Im most convinced on Traffic being scum and if I had to guess the stooge being set up of the 3 it would actually be Bax. The wagon developed pretty quickly and that to me makes it feel more likely he was being set up. The issue is that would mafia be trying to set up a townie or bus a scummate who wasn't being helpful and drawing a lot of heat already to get themselves townie points when Bax flipped scum on a lynch? I don't know any of those three well enough to know if they are the type to bus a scum buddy but it is a tactic thats been used a lot in the past. My guess at this point is that scum is some combination of Swang, Traffic, Bax and Traf with an outside shot at Charle or even Son!c being the Godfather.

Considering everything I'm still for lynching Traffic unless Darin gets counter claimed.
