Link Link stared at the vast Hyrule field and landscape before him wondering where he should even start to find the Magical Maracas. "Where are you, you stupid maracas?!", he yelled out across the vast plain. Epona turned and gave him a withering side-eye in response. "What?", asked Link defensively, "It doesn't hurt to try calling for them. What if that's all it took?"
Suddenly he was greeted by a familiar twinkling and high-pitched voice. "Link!", screeched Navi.
"Oh, hi, Navi", said Link, disappointed to have Navi be the one to answer his cry for help, "Did you come to help me find these Magical Maracas that Zelda wants me get for no good reason?"
"Hey! Listen!" urged Navi.
"Alright. What is it?", asked Link.
Immediately, everything became very quiet. Link and Navi stood and stared at each other in the silence.
"I.... don't know," Navi answered, finally breaking the silence. "No one has ever stopped to actually listen before. Usually they just hit A and scroll through my messages as fast as possible. I... I don't actually have anything to tell you."
"Well, that's just great," Link replied, very annoyed at this encounter, "Well, it's been great catching up with you Navi but I've got some Magical Maracas to find so if you don't mind I'm going to be on my way and....."
"Link! Listen!" Navi exclaimed, suddenly realizing something from what Link said.
Link sighed. "Do you actually have something to say this time?" he asked despondently.
"Yes!" answered Navi excitedly. "If it is magical maracas you want then why don't you come with me back to the Great Forest where Hetsu is living. He's got a set of maracas that seem magical."
Link thought about it for a moment and, realizing he didn't have any other better lead to go on, decided to journey off to the forest as Navi recommended. Of course, Navi had to flutter around and point out every object she saw as though it was some big discovery. But finally, they made it to the forest before Link snapped and pulled out his Master Sword to silence her.
At the Great Forest, Link was reunited with the Great Deku Tree and Hetsu and he filled them in on his quest asking if the maracas Hetsu carried were indeed the Magical Maracas he was after.
"Unfortunately, they are not," answered the Great Deku Tree.
"Awwwwwww. Shaka-laka-sucks," lamented Hetsu.
"I must confess that the Magical Maracas are not something that I am too familiar with myself. I cannot think of anyone who has ever sought for them nor have I heard of any legends or tales regarding them and where they may reside," recounted the Great Deku Tree, "In fact, the only thing I recall of the EarthFrog is that it was supposedly a friend of the Great Fairies from the bygone days of old. Perhaps it may be worth seeking out a Great Fairy for more information."
And so, Link set off to the legendary Great Fairy Fountain near Kakariko Village to see if he could get more information that way. However, unbeknownst to Link, another shadowy figure was on their way to the Great Fairy as well having heard about the Magical Maracas Link was seeking. Since this person didn't have Navi slowing them down by pointing everything out on the way as Link currently did on his journey, they were able to get to the Great Fairy Fountain first. As the figure entered the cave of the Fairy Fountain, the waters of the fountain swirled and splashed upwards as the Great Fairy herself materialized above them.
"How can I be of assistance to you, O weary traveler," inquired the Great Fairy.
"I need you to come with me quickly to help Link Link. He's in mortal danger," explained the stranger.
"Not Link Link!" gasped the Great Fairy, "He's, like, the most favorite pet for my sisters and I. If pet is the right word.... But alas! I cannot stray from the waters of this enchanted fountain so I am unable to help!"
"Ah! But I thought of that," exclaimed the stranger who then produced a shiny empty bottle from their pocket. The stranger then scooped a bit of the fountain water into the bottle. "If you shrink yourself down into this bottle," continued the stranger, "Then you will not stray from the waters and I can take you to Link."
"Most ingenius," the Great Fairy proclaimed in delight, "Let's do this!" With that, the Great Fairy then shrunk herself down to fit in the bottle. The stranger then put a lid on top of that bottle. "Oh! I don't think a lid will be very necessary," the Great Fairy protested, "Also, there are some sharp blades at the bottom of this bottle that I think should be removed."
Unfortunately for the Great Fairy, it was not a harmless empty bottle that she had put herself into but rather the jar of a blender. With the Great Fairy secure, the stranger then hooked up the jar to the base of the blender in their other pocket and then plugged it into a lightning rod. "Noooooooo! Don't do this!" screamed the Great Fairy but her pleas fell on deaf ears as the stranger then turned the blender onto high and discovered that, yes, Great Fairies will blend. Once the deed was done, the stranger than ran some distance from the Fairy Fountain to a nearby stream. Putting the blender jar by the edge of the stream, the stranger then took out a Megaton Hammer and smashed it to bits. The stream then carried away the fairy concoction it contained along with the evidence of the crime. Watching the remains of one of the great Hyrule Resident's be flushed away downstream and satisfied that they had left no trail behind, the stranger then slinked off into the night.
Meanwhile, Link finally arrived at the Fairy Fountain but was surprised to find no Great Fairy was there to greet him. He decided to look around while he waited. Of course, Navi had to find and point something else out to him.
(https://img00.deviantart.net/bc07/i/2006/312/2/3/fairy_mask_by_danshive.jpg)
Although Link was about to remove the mask, he suddenly sensed some type of knowledge filling his mind. Knowledge of the EarthFrog and of the maracas that he sought. A hazy vision of fairies laughing and flying around the EarthFrog who danced to the rhythm beats of the maracas being played by various individuals visiting him in his swamp home to be granted wishes. Into his vision, he became aware of some Ritos visiting the EarthFrog's domain and what appeared to be some other frogs handing them maracas. But then the vision faded and he was brought back to his own time where he suddenly became aware of Navi yelling "Hey!" and "Link!" alternately back and forth.
"Whoa! What happened?" asked Link, dizzy and disoriented. He suddenly realized he was lying on the ground.
"You collapsed after putting on that mask. I've been trying to wake you. I think you better take it off," answered Navi.
"Not just yet," declared Link, "This mask actually gave me a clue about the maracas after all. It seemed to give me some knowledge about the EarthFrog and it seems to be pointing me in the direction of the Rito Village. I think the Ritos were given the maracas by the EarthFrog long ago. At least, if the vision I saw is correct. C'mon, let's go."
Link and Navi headed out of the Fairy Fountain Cave to grab and Epona and head to Rito Village. However, Link was shocked to find Princess Zelda coming up to greet them. Zelda had been feeling bad about the abrupt way she had kicked Link out of Hyrule Castle and, when Impa sent word that Link had been in the area, she decided to go out and find him. She did not expect to find him dressed and looking like a Great Fairy. Taken aback, Zelda wasn't sure what was going on with Link or what he was doing on this quest to find the EarthFrog.
(https://i.imgur.com/S5VUYPm.jpg?1)
"Zelda! What are you doing here?" asked Link in surprise.
"Oh. Uh, hi. Yeah. Uh, well, I noticed you forgot your Pictobox Camera when you left Hyrule Castle the other day. I know it hasn't been working of late so I decided to get it fixed for you and I thought you might want it on your quest so I came to bring it to you," Zelda explained. She had planned to use the camera as a peace offering but was now changing her mind and deciding it would be best to let Link continue on this quest instead.
"Aw, thanks so much! You're the best!" exclaimed Link. He then leaned in and gave a Zelda a kiss on the cheek. "Selfie!" he cried out as he took a picture of himself posing in front of the Great Fairy Fountain Cave. "Well, I think I may have found where the maracas are so hope to see you back in Castle Town soon. See-ya!"
And with that Link rode off on Epona to the Rito Village with Navi hurrying along beside him while Zelda stood and continued to process this latest development with Link.
A report masters. It appears that The Great Fairy was killed in a Mafia hit. In addition the deadline for voting is 11:30 PM EST / 8:30 PM PST Oct. 14 unless a majority vote of nine votes is reached. It is advised that we continue to monitor this thread for further information.
Great the Great Fairy is out of the game.
So I haven't had all the time I needed to PM everyone about this idea so I am just going to throw this out here in the open.
So my idea is a way to avoid the bomb mask in the vote. Basically we do a mock vote. How this works is we type Mock Vote and a players name and hopefully we can get majority with those mock votes and then we wait a little bit and then make our votes bold to make the votes count and end the day and hopefully vote out a baddie and avoid the bomb mask.
So this games lucky mock vote is Dampe. So majority is 9 votes so we only need 9 mock votes for this to work.
Mock Vote Dampe.
Okay so here is the jist of the mock vote. I am going to try and explain this as simply as I can.
So first a little primer on which votes count. Only bolded votes count as a vote. Okay. So doing a Mock vote and the vote not being bolded means that we are only stating our intention to vote for said person. We take the time while the mock votes are being posted to gather more info on said person and other players so we can be sure to not vote out the bomber and possibly find a mafia member or a 3rd party member that isn't the bomber. So once majority has been reached with the 9 mock votes that are not actual votes yet we can discuss if we want to vote out that person or someone else based on the info we have gathered. Then we can make our votes bold and we have a strong voting block to end the day.
Plus a bonus to this is there really isn't a way for the mafia to upset the mock vote since if they try to go against it they will out themselves. They either have to vote along with the mock vote or just not do any votes. Both can be used as a way to pick out voting patterns.
Plus this can be a benefit to the Mafia and any 3rd party who isn't Majora's Mask who only needs to survive till Day 8 starts who would win automatically if not voted out or killed before then. No wins for anyone else if Majora Mask lives till then.
I hope that was explained well for everyone.

Vote Mipha
Fish is for eatin' not for lovin' UNLESS THAT FIsh has been out in the sun for 3 days and then its for both.
Okay so I think the best course of action is to keep votes low to try and avoid much loss via bomb mask and try and find Majora's Mask and vote them out or if we are lucky kill them via night actions.

Hello, thank you for choosing Ravio Inc. for your shopping needs. Check out our fabulous new selection of masks!
I have looked into our inventory of fish, and found that Ravio Inc does not currently stock any fish. Stay tuned in the future. Ravio Inc will be looking to get it's hands on as many fish as possible soon! Possibly by threat or use of violence. If you or someone you know has any fish in his/her possession, please contact our customer service department and we will dispatch a Ravio Inc bandit/thief to steal your/his/her fish so we can sell it directly to you. Have a nice day!
Vote Cucco
Linebeck here!
As a man of the sea, it befalls to me to find this retched mafia scum and root them out! They are cowards and liars, and in order to catch them, you have to think like a coward and liar. Of course, this is impossible for me, as my honor makes it unimaginable to even think such a way (*looks nervously across the room*).
But even so, as an adventurer, businessman, and impeccable lover, I have encountered my fair share of mafia games and know that the mafia are either excited to play due to their roles and power or are nervous of being caught. They'll post more the usual or less than usual, boldly playing or hiding in the shadows. It's a guarantee!
I feel it in my left mustache that they are doing both, but mostly the latter. And so I vote with the righteousness of a thousand Kings!
VOTE MOBLIN
Okay so I think the best course of action is to keep votes low to try and avoid much loss via bomb maskCrakalaka! The only problem with that is that it may give the baddies an easier time to control the votes. It's certainly a dangerous situation any way you look at it! Dangery danger!

Feels like there's a push against Dark Link and I'd like to hear some reasoning on it.
un-Vote Cucco
Analysis indicates that as long as there's a bomber in play the Mafia will be limited in their ability to directly control the vote in that fashion without risk to themselves. There is a 67% probability that they will spread their votes in an attempt to minimize potential losses to the bomber.Okay so I think the best course of action is to keep votes low to try and avoid much loss via bomb maskCrakalaka!

It is true that is a possibility of happening. But at the same time joining votes may be the easiest way to vote out Majora's Mask. All of us are on a timer until Day 8 or Majora's Mask is gone from the game.
Vote Cucco
I'd like to file a complaint but your customer service department is not responsive. The Sward that sells darcness you sold me turned out to just be a stick with some tinfoil wrapped around it.
Vote LinebeckIf you simply do not wish to be voted out than the optimal path would be to vote for Dark Link instead. I would like to request an explanation for your actions at this time and it seems that the best way to do this is to
He voted for me. I don't want to be voted out, so I can't let the margins be so slim. I certainly don't want a day 2 elimination because people have a prejudice against moblins.

If you are a townie then you're too paranoid.

By the way, if you find you have to log back in to your Mafia account then it is probably because I was in it and then exited it myself. Great thing about this game is being able to see the private messages being sent. I love it. Unprecedented game action!Case and point.

I have an idea. What if a group of townies formed a vigilante group? We could be a mafia against the real mafia. Recruit someone and we'll create a powerful chain. We'll keep it down to like 7 people. If we form a secret society we can monitor everyone from multiple angles.
I think we should have a campaign of active talking, and information compiling.
I'm going to message Epona with the same message.
Also, if I wind up dead tonight I have a backup plan similar to the end of Watchmen. Think ahead.Analysis indicates that anyone is capable of claiming to be the bomber in a desperate bid for self preservation.

Everyone I've spoken to through a PM claims to have received a PM from you about an alliance including myself and I joined to keep an eye on you but you seem unwilling to do anything with this alliance of yours at this time, despite the fact this alliance was meant to be, and I quote, "a campaign of active talking, and information compiling."
For context this is the PM that Moblin sent me on day 1.I have an idea. What if a group of townies formed a vigilante group? We could be a mafia against the real mafia.

Who are the other Mafia members?
How would I know. I'm not Mafia? You have any leads?
Woops mixed up the punctuation.
Should be...
How would I know? I'm not Mafia. You have any leads?
Analysis indicates there is little evidence to suggest that a typo means that someone is mafia.
also, like to point out Fi outed the "secret society" on day two. A secret society of 4 people.What fiends. Only a piece of Mafia Scum would fail to capitalize the beginning of a sentence.
You're last two posts have been revealing.
Either you are lying about PMing other people, or the people you Pm'd lied to you.
Also, the alliance was secret. You just let the secret out. I only pm'd epona and you about an alliance. Epona never responded...i accidentally sent him small sized font.
you brought in cuckoo, who I am most suspicious of because he screwed up telling a lie.
#IlluminatingInformation
I sent this message to cuckoo in a fishing attempt. It was a specifically attempt response to see HOW he would answer the question.Who are the other Mafia members?How would I know. I'm not Mafia? You have any leads?Woops mixed up the punctuation.
Should be...
How would I know? I'm not Mafia. You have any leads?
No he could have just screwed up his punctuation, but that was kind of the point. I wanted to see if a mafia person would accidentally reveal themselves by not being too aware that when you are mafia you are told at the beginning of the game who the others are. If he was careless something could slip with that simple question. In a way I created a fake familiarity and trust by asking him a simple question and if he isn't guarded enough. It's a loaded question because it is manipulative.
So me and Moblin are doing a townie alliance. You want in?
Sounds good though moblin was a bit aggressive on the first pm to me so a bit apprehensive till the game plays out more. Who is our first suspect? Should we vote as a block even with the potential of a bomber?
I don't trust moblin either, tbh I'm partially in to keep an eye on him and whoever else he gets in on this (and it saves me the trouble of trying to set up an alliance myself.)
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Alright, everybody still seems suspicious. Dark Link seems a little too eager, Cucco seems a little too talkative, Moblin... I was more suspicious of him earlier, now I don't think he his Mafia. He seems too earnest. Fi is eager to attack Moblin, but I don't know if that proves anything. Tingle seems a little too sly... Agitha I don't think is mafia, but I'm not sure. That goes for the others as well, Hetsu, Navi, and who am I missing?
I think for now, Dark Link seems the most likely suspect. Vote Dark Link for now. Can we get a tally please?
