Princess Bride Mafia - Game Over

[Sugar]

Vote: Leonidas

But we shouldn't forget about mole. Once again, two "regular townspersons" were given a very specific role name. Mole's claim did nothing to convince me that he got the same role Someone and I did. If you remember, it was suggested that regular townies give a clue as to that role name, which mole did not, even though he had 7 of the 10 required votes for a lynch.

[mole]

Fine, my role name contains two words, both with a prime number of letters.

[Dourgrim]

Bah. I feel so... schizophrenic. Time to follow the cop. Speaking of which, protecting DP tonight isn't such a bad idea, doc-types (as if that wasn't obvious).

That's correct.

[Leonidas]

People of Florin, lend me your ears, and hear the defense of your moved clergyman...

It's not been exactly the most pleasant day 1 in my life.

DP - it's either a Lepton, or you're a reverse cop.

My role is named; what's your name, pilgrim ?
Is it Vezzini ? - I think Vezzini could be a cop because of his intellect.
But would he be competent ? After all he chooses his cup of wine quite poorly.

Or would he even be on the town's side ? After all, he really wants Buttercup dead.

However, I understand the town should follow you, so I will

pray God to show mercy on Leonidas

, both to prove my innocence - and to save my life.

[Dragon Phoenix]

I see no need coming out with my name - that way I can still catch someone later who tries to claim my name. Suffice it to say that there is NO way that with my role I am insane or naive.

[jadesmar]

Ok,

unvote: um.. Dourgrim
vote: Leonidas

Perhaps mole could provide Sugar with one of those clue to prove his townieness.

[mole]

I have already done so. Someone's (haha) already confirmed me, in fact.

[jadesmar]

Oops, missed that.
Sorry, carry on, nothing to see here.

[Fishbulb]

Sorry about that Dragon Pheonix, I thought you had just lost it back there.

[Fletcher]

OK, I think Leonidas has 8 votes. Will it be held against me if I vote for him?

[Someone]

I say just lynch him.

vote: Leo

oh well

[rite]

Whoops, forgot to add--

Leonidas, the only way you aren't getting lynched now (I just moved it to nine, PLEASE, NOBODY VOTE FOR HIM) is if you use your divine intervention, right here, right now. Else, it's pretty obvious of your scummyness.

[rite]

Fark.

[Someone]

Well....maybe he can stop his own lynch?

[mlaker]

That'd be like a huge power if you could stop your own lynch.I'm not quite convinced yet but

Unvote Mole

FOS Leo and DP for not coming out and giving the name of his character.

10 votes...no Brute Squad. It is night.

Deadline for night choices is 9 p.m. EST Tuesday, August 12.

[Dragon Phoenix]

FOS DP for not coming out and giving the name of his character.

Which part of my explanation why I did not do that don't you understand?

[MeMe]

“There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead… Now, mostly dead is slightly alive. Now, all dead...well, with all dead, there's usually only one thing that you can do.”

“What’s that?”

“Go through his clothes and look for loose change.”

Commence with the clothes rummaging – not even a miracle pill would be able to save

Fishbulb

– who the King’s stinking son fired back when he was known as

Miracle Max

– from the ravages of the large, festering wound on his leg.

His witch…er…

wife

Fletcher

’s screeching torment at her loss abruptly ended with one push of a lever…that went to 50.

Valerie

need not learn to live alone. She has followed her husband into eternity.

With 16 in the game, it will take 9 votes to summon the Brutes. The thread is, once again, yours.

[Fletcher]

AAARGH!!

[mlaker]

I don't see what character in Princess Bride could be a cop,or at least be a sane cop.Just a hunch.

mlaker

[Someone]

well, well, well.

2 kills, not good.


Anyways, on to the more pressing issues. It's turned out to being Leo vs. Dp. The problem is that both of them have plausible role-claims.

Leo claims that he can invoke "divine intervention" to stop a lynch, and did so.
DP says he is a sane cop for sure.

The logic behind yesterday's lynch attempt against Leo was that if he was innocent, we could lynch DP. But, since leo used divine intervention he stopped the lynch, therefore it cost us 2 innocents. Are we really prepared to do the same today. If Leo is innocent, and DP is guilty, we will have lost two more lives, plus Leo himself, plus two more just to lynch one mafioso(DP). Also, quick lynches in all those days mean that we will have nothing to go on after we kill him. Is it really worth it?

On the flip side, Leo looks

super

guilty in my eyes.

A) A cop fingered him
B) There is probably an SK in this game, right(judging by the two deaths)? Well doesn't his role sound like an SK. Who else in the princess bride could be a viable SK or a second killing group?
C) Leo used his power yesterday. It cost us two townees, and potentially more. Now, this might be a mistake, because I would have done the same. However, has Leo not played in many games? Was it obvious to any of you that have played as much as him that it wasn't a good idea?

Anyways, I think I am leaning towards the "Leo is not guilty" side. But, my scum detector isn't reacting to DP yet either. So, my vote is withheld for now.
