TheGoddamn, please can you confirm who you thought you targeted?

Don't answer that Rynam, I don't want to know if you're lying

Or the doc didn't visit Blarg.
Maybe we do but they wanted to protect someone else or were switched? Or maybe a poison doctor is all we got.
Yes I saw only one person, but now I'm scared there could be a Person with an invisible spell/cloak?

If you are not lying about what you said, then there must be a ninja. Personally, I am curious as to why you did not raise this yesterday.

Doesn't mean anything, if rynam and thegodamn both targeted blarg last night rynam would still see thegoddamn even if blarg was switched
I wanted at first, but then came Blarg, after that i didn't want to get scum suspicious of me.

Doesn't that mean TheGoddamn must be the thief? There's nobody else possible.
Probably not. Burb was technically the 'poison doctor' because he could cure people but I wouldn't really call him a Doctor.
And I don't think Salva and Nin are mean enough to leave us with no Doc.

OK, now that I've finished eating I can finally catch up!
First off, poor burb
It's sucks that he died, especially since he had some good powers. That being said, he did a good job of telling us the information we needed to know while keeping the rest under lock and key. It's too bad that he probably wasn't able to save sawneeks though.
Secondly, blargs alive! Again, sucks that he wasn't able to destroy the horcrux, which also prevented him from investigating someone. I agree with LoC that it might be the Harry Potter role that stole it(I posted a similar idea about a role like that when blarg first reaveled the existence of the horcrux), but I could also see it being a scum role as well to protect them from destruction. I'm leaning towards it being a town theif though, as I think that would make more sense.
As for the crab situation, I having trouble believing him because, unless I'm mistaken, most switch targets don't get pms telling them they were switched. Also, rynam claims that he saw Crab visit sawmped on night 1 and that he was the only one to visit swamped that night. Night 1 was the night swamped was killed. This means that if rynam is telling the truth, then crab killed swamped. I will withhold my vote until we get more information, but things aren't looking good for crab.

So, for now I'm inclined to believe Rynam just because I feel like Crab has been acting oddly since the start of the day. Their theories have seemed far fetched I guess. These for example
Both ideas just seem like huge leaps of logic in both scenarios. Crab suggesting the ninja seems like him trying to latch onto Rynam's suggestion of an invisible cloak to make some play to take suspicion off himself. The first quote seems far fetched because it seems far more complicated than other scenarios, that to me at least, appear more likely, such as Mafia thinking that Blarg would be healed.

I need to defend Crab there, you're mistaken on that, someone "played a prank" on me on N1 and switched me with someone else.

If I was mafia, why would I even say I was switched at all? What on earth would the point be?

I would normally agree, but it seems that this game has a lot of people knowing how they were acted on.
Sawneeks knew she was poisoned
Gorlak and Blarg knew they were stupefied
Blarg knew he was crucioed
etc.
I wonder who got crucio'ed today tbh

Alright,I kind of expected that as a possibility, since this game clearly doesn't play by the normal rules. I wasn't trying to use that as evidence against crab,just as a reason for my distrust. Thank you for clearing that up.

The flavour in the PM I got says I was pushed into a wardrobe and transported to someone else's room. Is it the same for you?
Nope, it was another message for me.

Wait no, the thief acted on blarg, so yeha, your question is valid
Argh I hate switchers
STOP LOOKING THAT HEAVILY INTO FLAVOR GUYS
This is exactly how you would get blindsided by something
Argh I keep meaning to put everything into one big post but hit the submit reply button to quickly
So you're saying, two switchers...

Three cops
Two switchers
Maybe no doctor
I want cthulhu back, that game was saner

Or a switcher that can choose the "prank" him/herself.

It depends on whether salva and nin use exactly the same flavour in their PMs, I suppose. Mine sounds like a prank even if it isn't explicitly described as one.
So, reconstruction of events so far:
N1:
Rynam watches Swamped, sees me visit only.
Someones switches Rynam and someone else.
I visit Swamped.
Someone kills Swamped.
Someone interrogates Blarg.
Blarg investigates kingkitty.
Someone poisons Sawneeks.
N2:
Rynam watches Blarg, sees TheGoddamn visit only.
Someone switches me and someone else.
Someone kills Burbeting.
Someone interrogates Gorlak.
Blarg attempts to destroy his Horcrux, but...
Someone steals Blarg's Horcrux.
Missing parts of the picture: who was Rynam swapped with N1? Who was I swapped with N2? Why did Rynam only see me and TheGoddamn, and not anyone else (unless I am killer and he is thief respectively)? Why hasn't anyone claimed poisoned from N2? Did TheGoddamn visit anyone N1?

Just because the messages are different doesn't mean that there are two switchers, it could just be that they have multiple flavor messages to keep things freash.
Or at least I hope that's the case...
"You feel your feet leave the feet, someone has played a prank on you. You have switched places with another player for the night."
Man, burbeting died again on night 2? This is getting a bit ridiculous.
Anyway, some crazy shit has happened when I was at work apparently. Haven't had the time to fully catch up yet, but:
ARE YOU READY FOR MORE WEIRD SHIT?
BECAUSE I HAVE MORE WEIRD SHIT FOR YOU GUYS.
Here is a picture of my hand right now:
Alright, my hand doesn't say AD, but it is close. I got a PM saying I got punished (punished is in red so I think that is a command), and now the text "I MUST NOT TELL LIES!" is on my hand. Can anybody with more Harry Potter knowledge tell me what is going on? Should I amputate my hand evil dead style?

Sounds like Dolores Umbridge
But why day 2. What happened day 1.
And whose side would she be on? She's another one of those characters that isn't explicitly one side or the other (well shes evil, but she's never really shown to be a death eater)
So there's Umbridge in the game it seems. So at least a second MoM person. But i bet not Hogwarts aligned.

It means Umbridge is in this game, which confirms something I know from my role, so I am pretty sure you are telling the truth.
I think if you investigate her it will show "Ministry of Magic".

Whoa whoa whoa, that does NOT sound like mere conjecture right there

They gave us three cops though. It's like in election, where town only had one really weak cop role, but scum had offensive kill focused powers and town had an abundance of defensive roles
Except maybe the opposite.
I have no clue as to why a doctor would NOT protect blarg last night
Alright, so this Umbridge is probably scum or maybe neutral? Do you think my hand saying this will have any real effects?
Someone with spelling errors. Thats why I think it's not from Salva/Nin
Maybe the doctor was afraid that scum has some power to kill everyone that visit a certain person or that they have a scum watcher? And that scum would use powers like a strongman kill or a switch to kill blarg anyway?
Hyperactivity

The first is WAY too powerful for scum, they would have most likely used it tonight. And we would be waking up to a bunch of kills today, not just burbeting.
A scum watcher? Maybe, I guess I could see it, Rynam maybe making a bold claim today so that scum don't get stuck in the trap of claiming to late.
I agree that a kill everyone that visit power is unlikely, but the mere fear of such a role maybe existing could cause a doctor to be more cautious about his targets.

I don't think Rynam is scum watcher. Otherwise, he wouldn't have outed on me; because when I got lynched and flipped town, people would then know to lynch him. It'd be a 1-1 trade-off with no real secondary benefits.
