Chess Mafia [Game Ended - 3rd party wins]

[Thorthoth]

Unvote: Ragian
Vote: Thorthoth

Also the king is somebody I have actually played chess with.

Pika switching his vote for the fourth or fifth time is an obvious ploy.
...but what is the accompanying comment supposed to mean?

[Ragian]

Either that he has played chess with whoever has the role of king, or that when he plays chess, there's actually a king involved (like any chess game).

[madmitch]

no one counter claim Rags so unvote and vote Thorth

[Ragian]

Why?

[BuJaber]

Vote Count:

Madmitch (4) - Ragian, Zabeast, dakky21, Thorthoth
Thorthoth (3) - mandalorian2298, Pikanchion, madmitch


There is currently no deadline.
With 8 alive it takes 5 to lynch.

If you think I made a mistake, point it out please (I'm only human). If I don't correct it then assume no mistakes.

[Thorthoth]

...and Skoffin can't vote...
So that means every one has picked a side...

I am a black bishop ,nothing special ,no abilities just my vote

I mean, ''Come on...''

What's going on?
Could it be as as simple as all the townies are voting for scum (Mitch), and all the scum are voting for me?

In chess, I believe this is called, a STALEMATE!

[Ragian]

We have two ways to go. Either someone switches, or we listen to the vote that demands a claim from you, Thor.

[mandalorian2298]

We have two ways to go. Either someone switches, or we listen to the vote that demands a claim from you, Thor.

On the positive side, and acknowledging that powerless Bishop doesn't ring true, Mitch and Thorth have voted eachother in a super-scummy "any port in the storm" kind of way, meaning that, most probably, ONE of them is scum. So, one of you guys can switch to Thorth and, if he turns Town, we'll know to lynch Mitch tomorrow.

[Skoffin]

If only one of you fucks didn't remove my vote eh

Surely, SURELY, it's easier for you to move your vote.

One WOULD think so, and yet...

[Skoffin]

Fine let's vote Ragian

[Ragian]

You make no sense, hun bun. You can't vote. And I know you want mitch hanged. After all, you're the one who can read him.

[Skoffin]

I would just like to know spend 5 years in this game.

[Thorthoth]

If I claim, will somebody switch their vote form me to Mitch?
Mandy seems monmaniacal about voting me and I doubt Mitch is crazy enough to vote for himself so that leaves Pika.
If I claim will you switch your vote, Pika?

I'll tell you right now I don't have anything very exciting to claim but I'll do it if that's what it takes.

[Skoffin]

I honestly don't remember what Mandy's case against you was other than "He talks in a way I don't like"
Mandy tunnelvision is a fierce beast. I still have nightmares about it.

[Ragian]

Mandy, as a confirmed townie (yes, it's a small leap, but I'm making it), should sort out his play. He's tunnelling on Thor, which no pro-town player is supporting. I have given up on Pika, and Mitch will not vote himself.

I am actually quite happy with this little stand-off because it's could potentially yield enough information for the Town to win outright. You see, it would have been easy for both Pika or me to just hammer Mitch. But, two days have passed and we haven't done that. This shows, our commitment to voting who we believe should be hung over just firing blind as long as we're safe.

There are two possible reasons for us to be like this: 1) we are Town and doing our best to make sure that Town wins (or in Pika's case, he is third party who chose to throw his lot with the Town); OR 2) at least one of us is scum and is protecting our scum-partner Mitch.

Likewise, Ragian, dakky and Zabeast are either working in the best interest of the town or protecting their scum-partner, Thorth.

BUT, at this point it would be a lot harder for the one of those three who is scum (if indeed one of them is) to jump over to Thorth wagon because they would be giving up their scum partner in a situation where it looks like they have a good chance to save him.

Because of all this, I am very interested to learn who is going to jump ship the last.

If Thorth is lynched and turns scum, then one of those three is probably the remaining scum. If he proves innocent, then Mitch is almost certainly scum as well as one out of the three: Skoffin, Pika and me.

Of course, the same but in reverse could be apply to Mitch lynch. This in turn proves why Thorth is much more likely to be scum then Mitch. If Mitch is scum then the remaining scum has to be either:

1) Me: one everyone's Town list
2) Pika: and unlynchable Scumster, completely OPed
3) Skoffin: if she is scum the who took her vote and why?

Doesn't look likely, in fact, if I had to choose between those three I would find myself most suspicious and I KNOW that I'm Town.

All aboard the Thorth train! Choo-chooooo! QED

P.S. @Pika, if the scum are Rebels then it means they might not both be of the same color. So, if Red Queen is their leader, wouldn't it make sense for the other piece to be Black and, thus, not-Ragian?

P.P.S. Having reread the thread more carefully, I would like to say: Congrats on finding all those jobs, Skoffin!

[Ragian]

Mandy is playing his own game again...sigh...

[dakky21]

I will ask again: Is it possible that we don't have a cop at all, or that Ragian was provided with a fake claim of a Cop?

If that is possible and I don't see why that shouldn't be, then it is also possible that Rage confirmed his scum partner as town and are now just going for two townies while insinuating that if one flips town, the other must be scum, which will gain them two town kills and two night kills while staying in the shadows because they're "confirmed town".

I'm staying on Mitch though, his claim was unbelievable, but don't let Rage and Mandy drive us around as they want.

[Ragian]

While of course it's possible that I'm lying, I detest being put in the same camp as Mandy! I dislike his play.

[mandalorian2298]

ROFL You are such an ingrate, Ragian, at least he's denouncing you while following your lead.

[Thorthoth]

Thank you dakky for posting the needle of truth in this haystack of buloney.

So why are mandy and Pika voting for me instead of the vanilla black bishop?

[Skoffin]

Well while we're at it, maybe Ragian is a scum cop who is set out to find our King.

pffff would anyone like to admit to being the one that stole my vote perchance? If no one comes forward I'll continue assuming it was Pika.

[madmitch]

why can't you guys believe me that I am a bishop with no powers ? That is the role given to me,how many power roles do you expect in a 9 player game? How many of the 9 are scum ? 2,3 ? would you like it better if I had of said I was a pawn ? Then you would of sad I was copying DDS. Still got to go with Pika ,he has told the truth so far.
