I wish I could take credit for that, but that was all Khush. How’s that, you ask? That’s something that can only be answered in another exciting
Mafia PM retrospectiveWe join Wandering early in the game, where, after prodding pale, he learns that at least some assassins were mafia members. Knowing that nasty, untrustworthy mafia members with the ability to kill him knew his role, wandering fears for his life and quickly tries to make sure he was buddies with his fellow assassins…

Howdy pardner. You look the same as you did during assassin's school.
(Athrun Zala responds with a humorous reply. As does NuclearSpeed, but not until later.)
I want to be able to propose some strategy to AthrunZala, but I don’t have enough information. So I decide to risk pressing him for some…
Quote
to: Athrun Zala
I don't suppose I could press you for a bit of information? I'm a townie, so I don't know much of anything. Who are you allowed to kill? Does your mafia team know you're an assassin? Is there a traditional godfather who kills and picks a successor when he dies? Do you know the roles of your team members?
(No reply.)
Meanwhile, Khush does his charade where he tells everyone Crimm is a mafia assassin. Thinking him to be a mafia investigator, I put a hit out on him…
Quote
to: pale
please kill khush tonight, if possible.
But I have second thoughts, so I decide to pm him…
Quote
to: khush
I don't suppose you could tell me your reasoning? I can keep a secret.
(He has a source with a special role, but has promised to reveal as little information as possible. Also asks me to help vote out crimm.)
Hmm, there probably are secret unguessable special roles….
Quote
to: pale
I'd like to take back my hit on khush tonight, if possible.
Quote
to: khush
How do you know for sure your friend is working on the side of the townies?
Good question, he says he doesn’t. If I want him to trust me, I should put a hit out on TVMan, a mafia recruiter.)
Well, he knows I’m an assassin, and he does have an honest face…
Quote
to: pale
Okay, new target. Please kill tvman tonight, if possible.
…his security guard dies instead, but I do learn TVMan is indeed a mafia recruiter.
Quote
to: khush
You were right about TVMan.
(he wasn’t right, his source was right. He also asks if I’m the townie assassin, and if I can put a hit out on TVMan. He asks because he’s the townie doctor, and wants to protect me.)
Quote
to: khush
Yes. I've targeted TVMan tonight. Hopefully he doesn't have another security guard up his sleeve.
I'd very much appreciate the protection, though it's hard for me to imagine you surviving much longer...
(I’ve made khush’s night, if this turns out to be true, he’ll tell me who his source is and everything he knows tomorrow.)
Meanwhile, Athrun Zala still hasn’t replied, so I send him another pm….
Quote
to: Athrun Zala
Your silence scares me. I'm not dead, am I?
I figure I better cast a throwaway vote for someone I think may be in Athrun Zala’s mafia, for protection. I remember Athrun saying he agreed with BlackNMild on something awhile back, so that seemed as good as anything (whoops!)
…Much to my relief, Athrun contacts me and says I’m not dead.
…My relief doesn’t last long, though. After khush dies and his role is revealed, I feel certain that I’m dead. Pale asks why…
Quote
to: Pale
I kind of sort of told khush my role.
(Maybe he didn’t tell his teammates.)
decoyman also asks why I think I’m dead. Hoping he either is the townie doctor or knows the townie doctor, I try to hint that I want protection on XD’s night.
Quote
to: decoyman
I think I've gotten on one of the mafia's bad sides. XD mafia, to be precise.
Ceric contacts me around this time, asking if we could team up and share information.
Quote
to: ceric
Sure, okay. Teaming up is always good. Though I'm afraid I don't have much information to share.
He responds by asking if I have a role, and also says that he suspects Nemy, Vudu, and Zach. …Although I think ceric is a townie – he did, after all, show he was ignorant of how the mafias worked earlier - I am a little leery of sharing my role after what happened with khush. So I ignore the question.
Quote
to: Ceric
Hmm....I agree with your suspicions. I also suspect stevey.
(Ceric thinks stevey is either Snap or a townie. Also raises questions about UncleBob and Bill.)
Meanwhile, NuclearSpeed contacts me and says khush told him I was a townie. But he says he thought our assassin’s group could win with the extra kills per night, and said he could provide me with names as a reward for sticking with the group for now. But he also says that, if his mafia decides to kill me, there’s nothing he could do. …which was interesting, because I hadn’t known the mafias had more than one killer. [edit: actually, I misread his pm. He said that, if his mafia wanted to go after me, it would be botched...as in, his mafia's plan would be botched by him.]
Quote
to: NuclearSpeed
I'm still with the group. Any names would be appreciated. I'm thinking about going after zach tonight.
Oh, question. Does the rest of your mafia know I'm an assassin?
(No reply.)
Meanwhile, Khushrenada contacts me from beyond the grave to say hi. After pressing him, he says that his mafia does know I’m the townie assassin, but they don’t want to kill me yet. They want to use me to kill more people.
….And, wouldn’t you know it, blackfootsteps contacts me right then to say he was khush’s top secret source, and the townie doctor (he had told khush that he was the dash doctor, you see, and that’s why XD hadn’t killed him yet. But now that 18days has told everyone she is the dash doctor, he is afraid he doesn't have much longer to live. He knows I am the townie doctor, and knows other people’s roles as well. Specifically, he is sure Nemhylove is a snap member, and he wants me to put a hit out on him. He also says that, if there was anyone I was suspicious of, I should tell him so that he could get some information on them.)
Quote
to: blackfootsteps
I'd appreciate your protection if you can provide it.
Are you sure nemy's snap? I was afraid he was dash.
Actually, how are you getting this information in the first place?
Oh, I'm suspicious of zach and stevey.
(No reply.)
I was suspicious, but blindly following khush’s advice worked for me before, so…
Quote
to: Pale
Please kill nemy tonight, if possible.
…but wait. Didn’t khush say his mafia would try and manipulate my kills? Wasn’t it likely that blackfootsteps was a member of khush’s mafia, just pretending to be his secret source? And why hadn’t he replied…had he turned on me? New plan: I had to eliminate XD mafia before they had a chance to kill me. And, as they had a kill the next night, I didn’t have much time.
I noted 18days said vudu was an XD recruiter. Good enough for government work, thought I…
Quote
to: Pale
Sorry, scratch that. Please kill vudu instead.
I wanted to give blackfootsteps a chance to convince me he was a townie, but didn’t want to give him a chance to kill me. So, my plan was to put a hit out on him first thing next morning.
You know what happens next.
I get a letter from ceric, saying he's sorry I died…
Quote
to: Ceric
Yeah, me too!
I also geta letter from khush, where he tells me he told a townie my role…
Quote
to: khush
Wouldn't be ceric, would it?
(It was.)
Quote
to: khush
Yeah, ceric contacted me. He didn't tell me about his contact with you, though.
Blackfootsteps contacted me too, but I guess you knew about that. If I was still alive, I would've put a hit out on him first thing today... after taking care of vudu last night.
Khush wonders if maybe my ‘Well. I’m dead’ comment didn’t give me away…
Quote
to: khush
Yeah, probably.
And that’s all she wrote.
….Oh, one more thing. I sent a pm to stevey…
Quote
to: stevey
Quote
btw if any Failuremon want my list of everyone roles/side just pm me...
I want it!
The list was spot on. I’ll reprint it, if stevey gives permission.
