It's stated in the first post that roles are independent.

So yes, the second scum can be a godfather.

I just got stuff sorted out read through the thread, and said to my self: "Holy shit. A mafia lynch on day 1. Amazing. Though internet user didnt try any defense, which is bad, but all the worse since was scum."    I will be following this game, great job, town!

Mod There's only one special role or the second mafia member can be a godfather ?
There may or may not be a godfather in the game. There is a 50% chance of one, reguardless of other roles.

Sorry for the absence, i've been busy as hell the past few day's.

Flandre Why exactely do you want to assume Vector is town just because you suspect that she wouldn't do something?
I did say that it was an instinctive assumption, Bdthemag. Since Vector was voting for Wuba prior to his death, I highly doubted she would have night-killed him. It sounds silly now that it is out of my mouth, but there it is.

There is a 50% chance for any of these roles to show up. It is possible to end up with no extra roles.

you cannot read nightkills.  Period.  Don't try, don't think about it, etc.

Just saying.
Quite correct.

If Vector is scum, she might have killed webadict because she felt he was too good a scumhunter to leave alive. Or because she knew he'd continue pressuring her. Or because she was concerned he might be too convincing to let live. Or because she knew it'd look too ballsy to be true if she went on and on about how he was scum and then had him flip town. Or because she was genuinely enraged at him and let that override more nuanced concerns.

If someone else is scum, they might have killed webadict because they felt he was too good a scumhunter to leave alive. Or because they knew he'd continue pressing someone else. Or because they were concerned about leaving such a convincing townie alive. Or because they knew it might look bad for Vector to have her go on and on about how he was scum and then have him flip town. Or even because they wanted it to look like Vector was relying on WIFOM to make it look like she would never have done such a bad-looking move, meaning she did.


The bottom line is, there's way too many possibilities to draw conclusions from the nightkill without some serious backup evidence giving it direction.



More later. It's a brand new day, so let the scumhunting commence.

Fuck, SERIOUSLY?!

On the other hand, this is pretty much the best possible nightkill, because it saves town a lynch.

(Logic:

I was going to lynch Webadict at all costs today, including taking his bet.  He would have flipped town.  Then, either

a. I get killed
b. I don't get killed but WIFOM WIFOM WIFOM

In any case, it speeds up the game I see it and we get another free day of scumhunting)

Hmmm... need to reread!

Remember, you can still offer IC wisdom. Like a friendly ghost who can't be bothered to just possess the hero and go kick ass himself.

I feel too biased at this point to make any comments, but if I see anything, can do.

She censored what would have been a WIFOM argument that read into the night-kill. I think.

Provided that I don't get lynched immediately after Wuba's death and that the scum keep me alive, my being alive in the endgame would cause a lot of questions--"is she scum or is the scum letting her live?"

That makes sense. I can't say whether it's good nightkill strategy but it's certainly what I would do, given the chance.
