You all sit in silence at the beginning, but it doesn't take long before people begin talking. It starts like a productive discussion seminar, where you systematically try to break the ice and relieve the tension. The IC (Interim Chairman) showed up to work late, but he came to help with the discussion eventually.

Despite you all being trained J.D. holders, some people just can't take the suspicion anymore. You see people suddenly screaming and shouting at each other. Things get violent pretty fast, and before you can figure out what's happening, a brawl is breaking out in the middle of the conference room.

"Hey, you fuckin wankers!" someone shouts over the chaos. "Why is BlankFace not doing anything?"

He's right. BlankFace was suspiciously absent for a lot of the brawling. That makes sense, it was so obvious! With that blank face of his and his not participating in the brawl, he thought he could get away with just watching everyone kill each other off.

"Hey, hey, wait a second," says BlankFace.
"What?"
"Um.. go fuck yourselves because I'm innocent!"

LOL NO, you think. There was no way he was innocent! Your reasoning was flawless.

"Wow, you've got a lot to say now that you're getting suspected, Blanky!"

The brawl resumes, but everyone's focused on BlankFace now. He jumps over the table of the conference room and makes a bolt for the door.

"Oh no you don't, asshole!" you yell.

You tackle his foot and BlankFace comes crashing down. His head hits the glass door hard as it shatters into a million pieces.

"B..Bl..BlankFace?" you ask, trembling.

But there's no response. You see the glass shards at his head tainted an omninous dark red. Desperately, you check for a possible pulse, but all you feel is nothing.

"Holy shit!" shouts Creature.

Holy shit, indeed. 9 lawyers in a room, turned into a fist fight. It was a fucking joke, right?

But the reality of the situation hits you. You roll BlankFace's limp body stomach up, only to see his fearful, blank, lifeless face staring right back into your soul.

"Please, please... please have been guilty!" you think, believing that would be the only way to justify what you've done.

"Um... guys? I found a note on the ground," whispers a tentative voice.

You uncrumple the note. It must've been slipped in there when everyone was distracted.


You guessed wrong!!


BlankFace,
Vanilla Townie
, has been lynched Day 1.

Well we have 2 possibilities. We are playing with a {Mafia Roleblocker, Cop and Doctor}, or {VT, Cop and Goon}. There are 2 possibilities: MissTerry is really a Doctor, or she is scum who claimed PR her hide, because if she claimed VT she would have gotten lynched 100%. The second option is extremely unlikely, because:
-If one of the scums is Mafia Roleblocker, and MissTerry is scum, it would mean that she took an incredible gambit by claiming Doc yesterday. She would either be hoping for the real Doctor to not be around near the deadline. or hope to at least get him to reveal himself before she gets lynched. I don't think that a scum in their first game would make such an aggresive play.
-The other option is that both scums are Mafia Goons, in which case scum!Missy got extremely lucky by claiming Doctor, because she guessed that we are playing either in the setup "Row 2" or "Column B". Again, extremely unlikely.

So, in conclusion, as long as nobody counterclaims her, I think that she is pretty much confirmed.

Yesterday, it was 2 am for me when I made my last post. The deadline was at 10 am, so I decided to go sleep for 5 hours, come back, and have 3 hours to watch over the game. But it was too late, Blank got hammered. I am a bit torn on that wagon. I can see scum motivation behind it, but I can also see town motivation. Lynching is much better than no-lynching.

(at least objectively speaking. I find Blank's reaction to Serra's reaction test pretty much town, but I can accept that some of you don't)

Yeah I'm not lynching outside Thor or Penguin today.
If MT is really doc then we have Mafia roleblocker, in that case scum don't need to kill MT at all, they can keep blocking the doc.

Do we still need 5 to lynch?

Nooo, agh, we've lost a PR already.
And sorry Blank :(

I protected Hark because I thought he would be an easy target for Mafia to eliminate a town.
But apparently they went with Creature, do you think they knew they got a PR or it was a lucky guess?

I expected the Mafia to kill me because I claimed doc, but now that we're sure we have a roleblocker because of Creature's flip, I really can't do anything with my night power :/

We are currently 7 people alive. The majority needed to lynch someone is 4. I'm not comfortable with Penguin being at L-1 yet.

(assuming that you are Doctor) Missy, it wasn't a good idea to protect me I think. When you posted your reads, you read Blank as slight town, me as a lock town, and null/scummy on everyone else. With Blank being dead, and me being the only one of your town reads, you protecting me is a bit obvious. Anyway, don't worry about it, it's your first game ^^

From now on, try to not protect the person who is being townread the most. OR, keep doing that. This is called WIFOM.
Let's say that you say that you will protect Serra. Which Doctor in their right mind would announce who they would protect? Seems pretty weird right - so scum would think that you are lying, and they would think that Serra is a safe target to kill - and attack him. But then they get surprised when you healed him.

My advice for you is to try to use some wifom when you are choosing targets to protect :P (this applies when you are Mafia too, and you are choosing who to kill)

Thanks for the tips Hark :)
Using too much WIFIOM right now would be obvious though since you just told me about it :P

Hm, now we're just waiting for everyone else to show up...

You can never use too much wifom :P

It's like psychology and reverse psychology. You can keep going further, and use "reverse reverse psychology" - but the outcome is the exact same as the "normal psychology". So in the end, no matter how much thought you put into it, it ends with a binary outcome. Same thing with WIFOM - or at least that's my thoughts on it.
