Line of Duty Mafia game - DAY 2

[SoN!c]

First question: Reread the end of D1 Ragian.. DJfireside unvoted so it was only 5 votes anymore...with 8 needed with hours before deadline..+ kingm is at least active (and funny) and he is here + the lynch was not going to happen anyways anymore. Strike was not there to vote or he did not want to vote.. Charle and Dev stayed away from lynch voting too...and the zombies are just not here..

Second question: Dev said nothing. That gives a clue about who wanted to kill him: no zombie was killed (smart scumplay) and Strike was neither. Also i don't think Dev would be a scum Traf's prefered nightkill choice..


Third question: I had a lynch plan D1 with the zombie crew as a molestone around our necks..so we could go from the flip.. since that did not happen im very sus on Charle staying off that vote.. I think Dev just was not there at deadline (and for sure not with a focussed mind in the game anyways) but Charle was around at deadline..and Charle is. I know he was around because I saw him browsing the thread.

So for now im hoping on solid n1 results.

Also, while waiting for that: I think we need to bring Cod to L-2 asap and see if he is here or not. We can continue after that so

Vote Cod

[hjelp]

I still think that it's important to get non-active players into play. There are only Cofari and Riskmaster that hasn't posted at all according to Loose Canon. Even if Cod was "very short posting", still more than Cofari and Riskmaster.
So I still prefer Cofari as a vote unless Loose Canon exclude Cofari and Riskmaster from the game.

But Cofari will get replaced, the other will "only" miss their night abilities.

So I agree with Sonic, lets get COD to L2 and a claim.

vote general cod

THE LETTER OF THE LAW

As a result of the night actions of another player the Letter of the Law has been served on Sonic!
That means that his full role and alignment is disclosed to all players the following day

I assure you this is fully coincidental to Sonic being a troubled character who fashions himself upon Dirty Harry with a magnum

In the game Sonic is fashioned upon Sergeant Colin Brackley who due to a botched anti-terror raid fired the fatal shot at an innocent member of the public, and then had on his conscience the anti terror unit agreeing a story to cover up the botching

Hi Sonic,

You are a Town Aligned - 2 Shot Firearms Lead.

Twice per game you can authorize "Hard Cover" for another player - that makes them immune to all other players night actions for that night(kills, blocks, investigations)

[SoN!c]

WTF? And who from town wasted this "letter" - such a good night action - on me? Key targets for these things are Charle and Kingm.. dzjeeesus (with Dirty Harry accent - in the voice of Clint Eastwood) followed by "Swell, Tell you something. If the rest of you could shoot like you, I wouldn't care if the whole damn department was queer."

[kongming3]

Interesting night kill. Not sure why Dev specifically was chosen, but the loss of a relatively weak pr is acceptable if not ideal. Only one death probably means successful protection, potential delayed kill, or scum has some other advantage in terms of numbers or strength of role powers. Also could be possible that they have a conversion mechanism (like bribery?), so if any confirmed town are surviving past when they should in later stages, alive town players should be skeptical. Would be nice to know show context for if that ever happens in the show.

Other big deal is obviously the letter of the law confirming sonic. Putting aside the how or the why of it for now, I don't see how it might be faked given it was mod released, so son!c is guaranteed town for at least the foreseeable future. Doesn't seem like he has any investigative information for the moment so lynchings still need to be discussed, but if it comes down to a gut-shot choice after discussion, all town players without better information or very strong reason to want to achieve nothing (which I'd be skeptical of) should unite as needed to follow son!c's call. He is also now a likely scum target at night given his pr and confirmed townie status, so hopefully we can play around that properly. Not clear to me if son!c can protect himself as well, but I don't think he should publicly clarify that either way.

[kongming3]

I'd prefer not to lynch any of the three absent players unless necessary/in the absence of other options. With that said, general cod apparently did post once though I wasn't able to find it, so some heat might be good to summon him, or get him replaced as well or removed if needed. Trimming deadweight feels necessary for town to have the numbers needed for effective lynches, however that might happen. Vote general cod

[annieh]

Sonic! Do not talk to your fellow officers that way! First of all, they can’t reply. Secondly, I was ready to spend the whole morning talking about your crazy ass at the end of yesterday. You just had your name cleared! You should be the happiest person in here! You’ve been playing fast and loose, and faster and looser. Even without that, “can we trust that guy” is a great question to ask the most active poster. Sheesh! Geez Louise! (Also now that you we know you’re town that means you really weren’t just trying to butter me up early on (: d’awww, sooonic <3 )

ANYWAY

Of the silent, the only thing we ever heard from General Cod is “confirmed” which is more of a late Day 0 comment than a legitimate Day 1 comment….Anyhooo, I’ve been hearing some clunking and I’m thinking and hoping Cod may have gone full John McClain Die Hard and is listening from the vents.

GEEENNNNERRALLL COOOODDDD CAN YOU HEAR ME? GENERAL COD! I DON’T THINK YOU SHOULD CLAIM A ROLE RIGHT NOW! COD COME OUT!! COOOOODDDD!!

I think Cofari got got and Riskmaster left town. I trust the higher ups have heard about the staffing issues and will intervene. As for me, I'm going to have a vigil, or maybe a séance. Either way, I brought candles!

I don’t think this is a big coalition of the lurking. To me that means we have enough scum in the mix to try for it. Let’s keep that heat hot!

VOTE Kingm
(for all the reasons from yesterday)

Kingm, Sonic’s role description should help you out understanding what “shot” means in the context of night actions.

Now I'm going to be in my office lighting these candles...damnit....where is my lighter...oh, son of a bitch. COOOODDDDDDDD!!!

[hjelp]

ok, I will align with that Cofari and Riskmaster probably will be excluded. I will proceed with the next absent player since I want players to participate.
Vote general cod

[SoN!c]

Im the "die hard" personage incarnated..yippiee ka yee mofo!

Lets get all town aligned, then worry about night action hard cover means hard cover

[hjelp]

I still think that Kingm is leaning town. My concern is still Charle as number 1 on my scum-list. And it's good that SoN!c is confirmed town, that's what I thought. So, I have my list and I now add TrafalgarLaw01 to the scum list since I agree on SoN!c's post regarding TrafalgarLaw01 the "caught up" and no more invlovment from TrafalgarLaw01. Though I don't think that "no lynch" is an argument.

..
So I think I will have Charle as number 1 leaning scum.

by SoN!c » Tue Mar 10, 2026 10:50 am

"That said; Traf is the king of the silent-scum special: disappear completely D1, let town waste time on active players, then slide in late with "caught up, reads are X" (safe middle road, meaningless reads anyway) like he was here the whole time.. And ends his D1 late show with a "no lynch" vote..."

So I will stick to SoN!c leaning town (as I earlier stated) and Kingm leaning town. Annieh leaning town because of the "office-talk". Ragian balanced and (SoN!ic "plus point" Ragian) also leaning town. if to consider "the defending story Ragian Djf" then Djf leaning Town. Rest are neutral so far.

[hjelp]

hm, the quote is strange . I'm the one saying (not SoN!c) -

Umm... Son!c was proven town so not reading? FOS on Hjelp.

I will be heading out of town so I will not be posting large posts but will still try to be active but will continue with my last action especially since they are noted as not being able to be replaced in the last update by mod.
VOTE GENERAL COD

[homer_jay]

getting an inactive player to L-2 won't do much. my guess is they'll all continue to be inactive. as stated in my last post of D1, my suspicion now is going to those that prevented a King lynch. we need to look carefully at why votes were wasted when we clearly had one player who was suspicious at worst, crazy and all over the place at best.

[homer_jay]

ps. i'm on vacation until sunday so won' t be on even the limited amount i usually am.

[TrafalgarLaw01]

So Sonic is Town, Confirmed, I already believed he was. Wonder if there can be more letters.

I am not sure Loose meant Dev can't replace Cod, I thought mroe as Cod at least commented, while Cofari and RiskMaster didn't

So no sure voting on Cod will help much, but maybe Loose could clarify

Waauw.. thanks for sharing your "unsure" about it..


Im unsure who is scum and who is town, do you want me to post that?

[Charle]

This is very interesting. Just a question, could it be possible that Sonic bussed with someone, or someone bussed with Sonic and that result could have been someone else's? We will probably know if anybody else (who is active though) was dealt with the same role i guess.

Your saying that the mod himself was bussed?

Is it because you know you are the top suspect Charle?

[Loose Canon]

general cod posted confirmed on sun 8th march thats why im limiting sanction on him to suspension of any night power if he doesnt post at all today day2

Neither cofari nor riskmaster have posted at all at all

This is essentially a turn based game of risk website where you can get notifications when its your turn

The mafia games operate differently and i would suggest confusingly to people who are new to mafia

I dont want to discourage players especially if new to mafia by modkilling or replacing withouy trying to give them every chance to participate, IMMERSE themselves and in doing so hopfully enjoy, whether their team wins or loses, and no matter how good or not they personally are at social deduction

As a lot of you are aware as a player i am personally useless after all

[annieh]

There’s an elephant in the room for me, a big fishy elephant! Charle, why did you ask Kingm what his character’s name is?

Quote by Charle, bold by me

OK, I was waiting for the vote count, and I will definitely not doing the hammering, as I really believe King is town. What we now have, is that King, because you are on L-2, instead of a soft claim, you can give us your full claim so that we can work with that. So which character in the series do you present and what is that role and why is it sort of vanilla? If you are going to be lynched, we will get the details of your role anyway. If you give us your full claim now and it is believable town aligned, town might score by having your head saved for another day and we did not do the scum's job for them. If you are scum, I assume you are in a corner by having to guess the name of a character with a clean role.

At first I thought, what the hell was that? Then I theorized that this man must be Hastings himself to have been given a name. That Charle blew up his own spot bad and we should all act like no one saw anything. Since then we’ve had the full text of a strong and a weak role. Neither had names assigned at game start. I think there could be something about the Crime Group organizational documents that made scum think all AC-12 has names from the start.


P.S. What is bussing?

[SoN!c]

Charle is the top suspect and i think we need to take our chances on him today. But getting Cod first at L-2 can't hurt either. In the event there is an L-1 and a hammer vote on Cod: that should be scum.

Let's make the most of this day.

@Charle: what is your role name?

P.S. What is bussing?

Good post, but I see some kind of names in both those mod messages, so yeah probably shooting myself a bit in the foot by pointing it out, but since I'm telling the truth, and like I said in D1, I was "having fun" last day since D1 is boring, and I have to say sorry to all that still thing I am sus because I went a bit overboard, there is no doubt about that, and it almost got me lynched hehe.

Here is the "kill post":

Devante aka DC Nigel Morton was doing overtime opening files, taking papers out, turning them around 360 degrees, putting them in other files, relabeling the files, and refiling the files.
Phew after all that work Nigel deserved a drink, maybe a beer and a chaser shot.

So this one seems clear to me dev had a name.

This is the reveal Sonic post:

In the game Sonic is fashioned upon Sergeant Colin Brackley who due to a botched anti-terror raid fired the fatal shot at an innocent member of the public, and then had on his conscience the anti terror unit agreeing a story to cover up the botching

This one is more iffy, but Sonic, do you have Sergeant Colin Brackley anywhere in your role post??

And the last question I have is maybe we all have names, but almost no one knows them, except mod and scum?? Just a thought.

but FOS on Charle for sure.

[SoN!c]

No i did not receive any name. It's copy pasted like LC pasted now + extra addon message when the game starts and to pm if there is any question..

So the question remains: did Devante got the Nigel Morton name in his role post pm (yes/no?) or is it just mod flavor in the orbituary (like im Colin Brackley). Im sure LC will post a "aka Colin Brackley" when im found dead at night... (but i never knew that name untill LC posted it in the thread).

So @Kingm: what is your role name?
@Charle: what is yours since you clearly hinted to have one? Hmmm?

[Kingm]

So @Kingm: what is your role name?
