Topic: Mafia LXXII: Star Trek Universe. Day 2. Fire At Will!

Hmm, well that blows that strategy.

[ShyGuy]

I don't necessarily want to vote for Mop it Up, but I may be forced to.

UNVOTE MOP for now.

VOTE TOPHAT

[Silenced]

In case people lost track of the count:


TOPHAT - 1
Mop - 3
Stogi - 1
ShyGuy 1


Mop and Stogi haven't struck me as mafia/third party given their posting thus far and I'm willing to give Stogi the benefit of the doubt that he doesn't have a power role to begin with. TOP still strikes me because of his shifting voting and I don't have too too many thoughts on ShyGuy as of yet.


We're gonna have to concentrate on a vote and make sure to cancel votes on people we're no longer going against to try and limit the Borg as much as we can. Insofar as we're aware, they haven't been activated, though I don't know if there's anyway we can figure out save for dead player info.


Not sure if I'm in agreement with this sudden bandwagon, which was mainly done to protect Stogi who is now relatively safe.

[Mop it up]

Welp, I guess I'll see who else I can tick off.

Vote TofuFury

[Stratos]

Vote tofufury to save Mopitup. On mobile, hope to be home in time to reassess if this is wise.

[TOPHATANT123]

Vote tofufury, for the sake of bandwagoning

[TofuFury]

Well, I sign on to find out I'm in danger in both Safe Words AND Mafia. What is the world coming to?


In order to save myself, and honestly, no other strategy beyond that at the moment. I'm voting for Tophatant for now.

[ShyGuy]

Where is Insanolord in all this?

[Mop it up]

Ha, well, this is an interesting turn of events. Are people just trying to keep the voting narrow, or is there something else going on here? Hm...

EDIT: All right, time to make a real choice here. Vote TOPHATANT123 is my final answer.

[Stratos]

That...actually looks really bad now that I logged in on a desktop. Should I remove my vote to not be part of a bandwagon?

[Stratos]

Ha, well, this is an interesting turn of events. Are people just trying to keep the voting narrow, or is there something else going on here? Hm...

EDIT: All right, time to make a real choice here. Vote TOPHATANT123 is my final answer.

I'm trying to save you and you change your vote? Won't that put you back with the most votes or did some people change their vote from you?

[Silenced]

What in the hell erupted here

[Mop it up]

It's probably risky, but I think this choice is more likely (still a guess though).

[stevey]

4 for Tophatant
2 for Mop
2 for tofufury

[ShyGuy]

I really hope Top and Tofu aren't Borg...

[Khushrenada]

Final tally

TOPHATANT123 - 4
TofuFury - 2
Mop it up - 1
Stratos - 1

Captain Picard changed a Mop it up vote to Stratos. It's like you want the Borg to find you. But ultimately it's TOPHATANT123 who pays the price today. Night actions are due an hour from this post. I will address some of the questions raised in the past few hours. Just finished watching Moana at the theater and am waiting for some take-out as we speak. Once home, I'll be better able to communicate and post.

[Khushrenada]

Not necessarily. Assimilation happens as a night action after she gets activated so the earliest would be tonight (assuming Khush tells us someone got assimilated). And even then, she could choose not to use her power for a few days to hide herself until everyone has been voted for at least once.

There is no public announcement that the Borg Queen role has been activated. Otherwise, it could be easy to figure out who it is if only other person had a vote cast their way and suddenly the Borg Queen was active the next day.

Looked through the rules and it says nothing about the assimilation actions being public. They're functioning as a Cult role, for anyone who has played EpicMafia perhaps.

Assimilations are not public. Again, that would be like publicly announcing if the Mafia recruited a member. That said, there are certain roles that can learn and figure out who those assimilated might be as well as certain rules in place for the Borg and their voting to further assist players in identifying them if need be.

Therefore, for all you know right now, the Borg Queen could be active or could still be in hibernation.
