Mafia LXXXV: Metroid Dread. Day 4.

<< < (2/10) > >>

I hear walls made of toilet paper keep the dark hunter away.

RABicle:
Hmmm.
So this is the Federation's first kill after they presumably reconned both previous nights. And ejamer was an unspecialised Space Pirate like me, so we can assume teh Federation did not make any valuable recons and that they had not used a recon on ejamer either. In my opinion the ability for the Federation to scan for items is not valuable because the Metroid is the only item they ahve and at this point we can all assume Comrade Kraid has it.

Fortunately for us pirates, the federation have revealed themselves to be foolish players. ejamer was very unlikely to have been Kraid since that would've invovled manipulating his own public vote against comrade Mr Bungle (pirate). While such an audacious feint may distract from Kraid's identity, it is still in Kraid's interest to stack votes for big moves when needed.

So my understanding of the game at this point, as someone who hasn't played in about a decade, is that right now Kraid is MVP and right now we pirates can only hole that union secretary Mother Brain locates and protects comrade Kraid. Both the Federation and Dark Samus want to kill our comrade as their top priority.
The Federation appear unorganised and foolish, so I think us pirates should mostly be looking to flush out Dark Samus at this time because they are unencumbered by the inefficient Federation bureaucracy.

I will refrain from voting now, I must analyse any past votes that may've been manipulated to protect gormless Federation bureaucrats. Any ideas comrades?

I’m going to try and make an arm cannon out of paper towel rolls.

So, obviously, the mafia/dark samus piled on the B-Shy vote to get that role off the table.  I would've been willing to give ejamer a pass because they were willing to at least hear me out, though I didn't have a case for Lucario at that time, but that doesn't matter because dead.

Speaking of Lucario, I understand his vote was mostly self-defense, but he was in a pretty safe place at the time of his vote, which triggered the majority.  He offered little defense of himself, although he was hardly accused.  I think not hearing out the townie play or trying to put someone else on the voting block makes him suspicious to me.  I argued why keeping B-Shy was the better townie play yesterday.  I wish I would've added that leaving Samus on the table means that the Mafia would've been forced to make that the hit, which would have given the townies another day with the Metroid (assuming one of us has it?).  I think the townie move would've been to at least take the low risk and try to sway people into voting someone else, knowing that any one other player could've saved him.  Taking the easy route was a better play for a Mafia player.

So, with that, vote Lucario.

Yeah that did seem suspicious for Lucario to suddenly jump in at the end when they weren't in danger yet.  I voted for BeatifulShy as well but that was earlier when she said she wanted to leave the game for personal issues when everyone else who voted for her did as well.  After you and ejamer started getting into a conversation about why we should think it over more, and there hadn't been anymore votes in awhile, Lucario gives the majority vote to end the day.

I'm thinking there's a good chance Lucario is Dark Samus.  If they were mafia, they would have voted at a closer time as the other ones or waited until they were truly in danger.  If they were townie, they would have either voted during the early bandwagon or waited longer to hear other explanations.  Who else would want to end the day as quickly as possible unless they had their own agenda and wanted regular Samus out of the game so they could have hit power every night.

Vote Lucario
