Of Gods and Men [Mafia] | Ambrosia In Front Of Me

I'm not even convinced the spell exists. Seath is untrustworthy to the extreme, and Feng claimed his wasn't a god killing spell anyhow.

The spell + early vote on Splinter is a big reason why I'm suspect of OceanicAir right now.

Feng didn't get spell, just mentioned he had a dream. Yea, there is a chance he made up the dream/spell happening.
 
Mostly the dream. What it means, what they got, etc.

I'm like a zombie these days; don't ever work graveyard shifts guys.
Dreams = someone got random pm during night phase
Feng only mentioned the only god part in his was about walking with a god and a spiderweb or something.

Yes, I suppose there's a chance I'm not Komena. No way to prove it to you, really. You'll just have to take my word for it.

And could we really afford to risk lynching Seath if he's Perisperos?

I'm like a zombie these days; don't ever work graveyard shifts guys.

Basically during Day 3, Feng, OA, and Seath all claimed to have had a dream at one point or another during the night phases.

But seriously, I had a dream last night detailing how gods can be removed the game.

Although I'm 99% sure that the instructions could have been given to mafia too, it consists of a spell that will banish a god. Downsides are that 1) It's a 3 part spell, 2) there are two different versions and 3) If used wrong it will kill the user

Sophia, in a game centered on finding people's inconsistencies, to me that was a pretty glaring inconsistency (all in on someone, then overly defensive when others follow suit)

It's not hard to get and I don't even know how to further justify it cause it's pretty clear.

As for me, I got the Dream notification although I have no idea what it actually does.
I'm not even sure where to go from here, I'm gonna have to go back some pages and get some reads on people.

I also got the dream notification.

According to OA and Seath, it's a spell related to killing the Gods. However, Feng later clarified that his dream wasn't related to said spell

I didn't mention anything about killing a god in the message.

The only reference it had to a god was that as we walked through the dream we notice that our feet are thickly covered with spider webs, like some kind of shoe.

Here's the specifics about what OA said regarding his dream. Seath later followed up saying he got his on Day 1.

Basically, there are two 3 word spells. Once one spell is used it can't be used again. This would mean that both teams can remove a god. During this dream I could only "learn" one word from one spell.

Not last night but on night 1, when I received the dream notification.

Basically this:

Of course, Seath later then claimed to be the God Peripseros, and did all sorts of crazy shit in question on Day 3.

Actually, you could.
Third, he claims the dictates follow flavour and some are random. All my dictates are one word and it's up to me to figure out what they mean. I use one per night.
It seems like you choose the dictates? You could tell us the one you will use 2mrw? Or drop a clue about it.

I can't really think of ne drawbacks to that plan.

But...wait. If Seath is P, why would he have gotten a dream about how to kill himself? That makes zero sense.

And this is why I said Seath was untrustworthy above and part of the reason why I'm skeptical this dream even exists. :\

This kind of response is really wishy-washy. If you're Komena, argue for it. Did you see me backing down from my Gold Cursed claim when people thought I might be doing a scum gambit? Did you see Gorlak backing down when he claimed he was a Priestess and people were doubting him? You shouldn't have to spread FUD if you're Komena unless you've got something (either related to your survival, or otherwise) to hide. :\
 
btw

Feng/Blarg, OA, and Seath. Seath lied it seems? Feng said the dream wasn't about killing a god though.

Blarg can you give us any more details about this?
fengshuifever has a dream said:

no
 
My impression is that this is inspired by ancient Greece but not necessarily based off of it. Haven't googled anything but with the flavor characters clearly based off of Royal and Ynny, I'm not actually expecting a Sisyphus or anything. Caught my eye as a weird thing to say all the same.

damn

*applauds*

I think

Least some fun will be had from watching you do this. Enjoyed watching you do it in the WWE spec thread.

I enjoy deciphering his posts. Lots of people think it's random, but from what I can tell Blarg appears to have an incredibly meticulous approach to how he handles it. I wouldn't want to play live Mafia against the guy. =P

Of course, if he goes into the realm of actual mathematics... seinfieldimout.gif
 
I don't think I'm being wishy-washy. I think I've been pretty straightforward and honest this game, but without a flip there's no 100% guarantee I'm who I say I am. If Blarg wants to cast doubt on my identity, he's allowed to do so.

But we really should be focusing on finding scum.

I just got back, I will try to catch up. Honestly I don't think I can post properly until tomorrow evening, but I'll try at lunch time. I'm really sorry, I try not to participate in games unless I know I have sufficient time, but things will get better after tomorrow.

I wanted to welcome Blarg and talk about my top candidates for lynching (which should be pretty obvious if you've been following my posts, but I'll have time to post more details tomorrow). A lot happened today and I want to talk about all of it.

Oh yeah, we should absolutely do this.

Lynching Seath on the off chance he's lying makes no sense to me when there are so many other scum. If I'm looking at 5 players containing 3 or 4 scum then even a random pick has a good chance. I also don't see the "trail of blood" that leads to his teammates. Sophia can you tell me who else is scum if Seath is?

On the other hand, if Blarg is claiming Komena that changes things...

It would explain LPs posts today. Attacking me from the safety of "confirmed town" status while also using bias as an excuse. Also explains why he allowed himself to be lynched yesterday, also thanks to the turbo he kind of has an excuse there.

If Blarg claims Komena it's a Blarg v Seath thunderdome, and I'd probably vote Seath.

Blarg are you Komena? Here's what happens if this is a gambit or something:

-We lynch Seath today, he doesn't die
-Tomorrow is MYLO (I think?), and we almost certainly lynch you.

If you're town, we (including you) lose.
If you're scum, you've gone from "confirmed" status to lynched for no reason.

The only other possibility would be 3 gods, making 4 neutrals in the game...

So are you really Komena?
 
Lol Splinter please. You should've been lynched yesterday but our verified townies messed up and your scum buddies saved you.

I'll use foresight or fortitude tomorrow. Haven't decided.

The last 3 votes on you are confirmed town, and before that is Panda who I also trust.

Of the 4 votes on me, at least 1 is scum (Seath), and I'd be willing to bet OA is too. That makes half the scum team on me. Whether I'm scum or not they 100% didn't "save me" yesterday.

In fact I think Kyan has been town reading me most of the game... correct me if I'm wrong, I've only double checked today's posts.

Here are his suspects at the start of today:

But he's been dismissive of my claim, and firmly against me after it.

Yeah, I read you as town, you ain't wrong. I was somewhat overstating my opposition to you on purpose, to keep you on defensive. I am against your role because it, like Panda's, circumvents all other known roles. The only counter to it that we know of is gorlak's one-shot rb. I saw someone, might've even be you, saying that I overlooked the details on your claim. Bah. Not my words and this was not the case. The details are why I held against voting you. Like I said, the details are convenient enough to be fabricated, but this does not rule out the opposite. It is very possible that you are indeed what you claim to be. I still do not like the role and its unorthodoxy, but since you are the one holding the role, I feel I must go against my feelings and let logic take hold.

Kyan: I don't care for how Kyan was on Ezekel/Me and is now on the Splinter is mafia train post my vote.

Fear not, your vote had no effect on my actions. Splinter's claim was and is all I have against him.

Blarg has to be the lightning rod. Zipped's list makes no sense otherwise. With this, LP, do you have any "normal" commands you could use during the night, kill, track, watch, protect, lightning rod, whatever?
