That seems fair. As it goes, I don't entirely trust Lander's watch, but I don't think he's lying.

Without warning, a snow tornado rumbled through the North Pole, heading straight for Santa's Workshop. While most inhabitants were able to seek shelter in the basement, one was not so fortunate. It seems he was busy using the outhouse and didn't get the warning. After the snow settled, the inhabitants went outside to find the small shack completely leveled. There was no way he could have survived, and no way to discern his identity. Anything in his possession was surely lost. The survivors of the tornado returned to continue their work.

Rory <redacted>, aligned with <redacted>, has been modkilled for violating Rule #5:

Vote Count. Day 2 will end approximately 35.5 hours from now, on December 6th at 10 P.M. CST. With 7 players remaining, 4 votes are required for a Lynch or a Gift.

Lynch Vote
Topsummoner (1): Spirographed
Spirographed (3): Landerpurex, Frank, Pyro
Not voting (3): Topsummoner, Aragorn, Thr

Gift Vote: Majority Reached!
Topsummoner (4): Topsummoner, Thr, Landerpurex
Thr (1): Spirographed
Not voting (3): Aragorn, Frank, Pyro

Topsummoner will receive a secret Gift at the end of the Day Phase!

Notes: Frank and Pyro's Gift votes have been rendered inconsequential.

*In reference to Rory, there is no intermediate punishment for violating this sort of rule. Please REFRAIN from discussing this any further until after the game is over.

Wait, what did Frank and I do wrong, I don't understand. Or am I misunderstanding entirely.

Also you broke Rule 2. How dare you.

But seriously, can I get some more elaboration on that rule you mention after the gift votes? Or was that because Frank and I were using Rory's information that he posted.

Also, I guess this means Rory was definitely telling the truth about Spiro killing at night.

Spiro's been caught in his lie red handed; and for what it's worth, I would have bought Rory's claim even without his misguided quoting. Hell I'd have lynched him anyways with Lander's response.

If I die tonight, know this; 1. it is highly unlikely Thr is mafia though Lander suspects otherwise. 2. the mafia likely have the ability to sabotage or counterfeit items.

This leaves Aragorn and Thr as the only surviving players that didn't vote for Spiro.

That's something to consider when he flips. I believe Thr to be elven, so Aragorn is worth a look at.

I still don't trust Top, but no matter what alignment he is I believe it was his best interest to admit that Thr is village aligned if for nothing other than personal credibility.

If Spiro flips mafia, then Aragorn is our priority.

If not, then I'm leaning towards Top. There is just something there in my gut that I can't quite put my finger on.

As it stands I don't think Thr, Frank, or Lander are rogue so it may just be the process of elimination hitting me.

I also don't think Thr would actually vote to give a gift to his fellow mafia. I don't think anyone would unless they already had other people on board and the day was closing.

So Aragorn not only didn't vote for Spiro, but he didn't vote to give a gift to the elves either. Sure, either did I, but I'm Day 2 Survivor Pyro.

Not voting (2): Aragorn, Thr

Day 2 has ended.

Despite suffering through a freak natural disaster, Santa's Workshop had corroborated enough information to bring forth considerable accusations against a suspected Rogue. The evidence was overwhelming and the suspect's defense was only symbolic. He proudly admitted to sabotaging the efforts to keep the North Pole safe. The other inhabitants promptly decided to lynch him.

Spirographed, Elf Counterfeiter, aligned with the Rogues, has been strung from some tinsel and hanged from the mantel. Any items Spirographed may have had have been obfuscated.

Topsummoner has received a random secret Gift:


Night 2 has begun. It will end approximately 36 hours from now, on December 7th at 4:30 A.M. CST.

Notes: Frank and Pyro have not broken any rules. The lines have been separated for clarity (like this Notes section), via edit.

Aragorn will be prodded.

After experiencing a bittersweet Day, the inhabitants of the North Pole suffered through a rough Night. To their dismay, two people were missing from roll call. One worker had not reported, and there was a back-up of toys in the quality assurance department. Immediately it was apparent the two Elves that had met their fate. Were the Rogues getting stronger somehow? Was someone else helping them? Some of the group decided to sort through the deceased's belongings, while others began to discuss how an extra casualty was possible. One thing was certain: they were running out of time.

Thr, Elf Clerk, aligned with Santa's Workshop, has died a bloody death. Items in possession: White Elephant, Encyclopedia.

Pyro, Elf Worker, aligned with Santa's Workshop, has died a bloody death. Items in possession: Gingerbread Cookie.

Day 3 has begun. It will end approximately 72 hours from now, on December 10th at 11 A.M. CST. With 4 players remaining, 3 votes are required for a Lynch or a Gift.

Shoot. I sincerely hope one of our remaining roles has some info because I was prepared to go in on Thr today.

I also have no idea why I'm alive at this point.

So I'm going to go ahead and get this show on the road. Bear with me here, this is probably going to be a *long* post.

I believe Topsummoner is mafia. I am going to take on the not-small task of analyzing every post of his.

His first post.



Typical D1 nonsense, stays the course in voting for me as usual. Slightly more interesting this time around as I am town and I believe he is mafia.



Stating the obvious.



Pandering. Notice how neither of his items seem particularly town-oriented and later on he conveniently traded me the least useful (to him, as mafia) of his two items.

You have to follow my stream of consciousness here. I was absolutely suspicious of Top from the moment he told us what his items were. He was, as someone pointed out, awfully quick to jump in to 'help' the town, gather info, and vote for what we know now to be confirmed townies (myself and Pyro [I consider myself confirmed as I condemned Spiro to death with no provocation. If you can't trust me right now, you can't trust anyone]). Also of note is his penchant for voting himself for gifts. It's at this point I will ask him to claim his role, reveal to us what item/s he has, and what they do as well as what gift he received, what it does/did and whether or not he used it. I would also urge everyone to gift vote for me at this point. landerpurex



See above.



Once again, he targeted what he knew (as mafia) to be a townie. Forcefully switching items does not in any way seem like a town ability.



He voted for Spiro but would later retract his vote (and then hammer). He knows entirely too well the importance of getting on this train. Frankly, in a game like this, with the amount of time we had at the time, I am inclined to believe he voted to seem more town. We had plenty of time to let Spiro speak, his vote, then retraction, then hammer vote seems like a veteran mafioso caught in a conundrum.



Here's the unvote, as well as his cry to fill out the gift votes (for himself). I should have campaigned to have myself receive the gift votes yesterday but had I done that, I would likely be dead.



THIS is the other thing that struck me as incredibly scummy and out of left field. What difference does it make? Given how things turned out, I am clearly telling the truth. Fishing here to see if I have a role versus whether it was just a one off is very, very damning.

With that being said, I lied at that point in time. I watched Santa because of my role. I am Mrs. Claus. On even days, I can gift double-vote. On odd nights, I was locked to watch Santa Claus. Since Santa has died, I am now a baker and on odd nights I get to select one player to receive a gingerbread cookie which is an item that enables the user/receiver to double-gift vote. My other item was christmas lights, which I used on myself N1. This item enabled me to watch myself or whoever I use the item on.



More fishing. Like Jesus, hopefully putting all this in one place will make people realize he's guilty.



Interesting exchange. Top is quoting Spiro here. Easily could be them distancing themselves from one another as the writing was already on the wall. What's further interesting is Spiro, facing death, would never lob an accusation at a townie because it would make that townie look even more like a townie once he flipped mafia (if that makes sense). I believe wholeheartedly this is a simple ploy to distance himself from Top.

Again, Top never says why he thinks whether I used a role or an item seem important. To a townie, it wouldn't be.



He hammers Spiro here, but this is almost required given how he had been playing. He assumes this act would absolve him of guilt.

BUT, the most damning evidence against Top is that I am still alive. I (kinda) pretended to be on his side, did not cast any suspicion on him whatsoever waiting for this moment. He left me alive, despite my damnation of Spiro because A. He believed I was acting as his ally, gift voting him, saying I thought he was town, etc and B. he believed my watching role to be the product of a one off item, far less of a threat to him than if I were a traditional watcher.

So in short, Top has placed votes in the past for two townies (pyro and myself), he was 2nd on the Spiro train, retracted his vote, then hammered. He forcefully traded items with Thr (a townie) which does not seem like something a town member would do. He was blatantly fishing for information regarding my role and never gave his specific reasoning for doing so. Lastly, Pyro was the only person who had said he was suspicious of Top. In the end he said he thought he was innocent because of the hammer, but I think initially Pyro was on to something and he paid the price.

With all that being said there are 4 of us left alive. I believe wholeheartedly that Frank is town. The mafioso is either Top or Aragorn. I would like to hear from Aragorn before we go much further, but I am convinced at this point in time that Top is scum based on all the evidence above. I sincerely hope we do not get into a deadlock due to Aragorn's inactivity.

Claims all around, what item/s do you have, how can we win this game?

Discuss.

I was in the middle of writing a post yesterday when the day ended which was rather unfortunate.

Okay I'll tell you my role, mainly because this is a MYLO situation and I'm a little tired of siding with the mafia in games. I want to win with the town. I'm the Abominable Snowman, essentially a slightly weakened vigilante with a few other abilities. I can only kill on odd nights (I killed Pyro last night thinking he was double bluffing as mafia, oops!).

Is there a tracker role out there? If so watch me tonight as I'll probably be the target of the mafia now...

I think it's very clear that Top or Lander are mafia, and I'm inclined to believe you, Lander. I won't put the vote on until I get a few replies in the hopes of preventing a quick hammer.

(Town) >>> (Mafia)

Last night was Night Two.

Unvote

I'd start explaining myself if I were you.

Posting from my phone since I'm performing some surgery on my PC (reapplying thermal paste).

You are mistaken in your assumptions Lander though i cannot blame you for finding my behavior suspicious; it all has to do with the item I stole from Thr, which I have not used yet but will be using today.

I'm going to come clean about the item and my role and respond to some of your other points, but I'll need like an hour to get my PC ready/eat dinner/write the post.

But until then, I am a power role, and I was roleblocked last night.

It's pretty obvious that was a simple mistype (wrote all that post without referring back to my original role pm), I meant EVEN...

I have a passive ability on odd days that's why I mixed the two up. It's nothing special I just can't be targeted by any action during the day phase on odd days.

There's a LOT in your post, and plenty of it is not even worth responding to. So I've jumped straight to the conclusion in an attempt to best respond to your actual points.



I removed my vote from Spiro and hammered him for the exact reasons I said I did. I didn't want him to get hammered before he claimed, I wanted the gift vote to be completed, and I wanted to finish pressing you for informations for reasons I will go into later in this post. I was very up front with my reasons here and followed through exactly as I said I would.



So you lied to me then about your item. You are still alive because the mafia presumably went after Thr, which makes a lot of sense, because he's not alive to confirm my story about his item.



I used my White Elephant on Thr as a form of investigating him. Depending on what the item I got from him was, I could draw conclusions on his alignment. The item I got was very town-oriented in my eyes.



Why do you think Frank is town? You haven't given any actual reasons as far as I know.

------------

CLAIM TIME

I am the Elf Eclectic. I've got a strange even-odd sort of ability like Aragorn does.

On ODD DAY PHASES I can visit a player and guess an item in their inventory. If I guess right, I get a copy of that item. I didn't use this ability on Day 1 because I misread and thought it was a night-use ability (my role PM is a bit of a wall of text). But it's up for grabs for me to use today, with cooperation I can use this ability to confirm my power and copy a useful item if any are floating around that somebody would like to claim.

During EVEN NIGHT PHASES I can visit a player and gift them a copy of one of their starting items at random. As far as I know this doesn't tell me what the item is that I've given, but I don't actually know because I was roleblocked last night trying to use this ability on Thr.

The item I got from the gift vote was Ice Skates, a single-use track which I used on Pyro. Since I was roleblocked the tracking didn't succeed but the item was expended anyways.

The items in my inventory are the Gingerbread Cookie Lander traded to me (adds 1 gift vote to a player's count for the remainder of the phase), and the Magnifying Glass I stole from Thr.

The glass is the item I was being cagey about and here's why: it's a 1-use check on a player (day or night) to see if they possess any counterfeit, sabotaged, or stolen items, and what those items are. The glass is important for several reasons:

1. It's very clearly a town-aligned item, and why I was certain Thr was town.

2. Use of this item correctly could win us the game here outright, so I'd like to ask for input on who I should use it on. My gut right now is Frank.

3. Due to the potential power of this item, I didn't want it to be sabotaged or interfered with, which is why I was cagey about it. I think my playing it up may have been part of why I was roleblocked last night though, that and getting the gift item.

4. This item's ability, Lander, is why I was pressing your for the specifics of your watching ability. If it was an item that wasn't consumed on use, then I could check it with the Magnifying Glass to see if it had been sabotaged or counterfeited, ergo explaining a potentially incorrect reading on Spiro.

I would have rather used it before coming clean about it, but I think transparency today is very important. Hopefully there aren't any mafia day-sabotage abilities still in play.

-----

Given that Rory's crystal ball saw Spiro had a kill ability, and nobody else thus far has claimed a role that changes ability depending on Odds and Evens but Aragorn, I am inclined to believe Aragorn is actually what he claims.

I don't think Lander would have bussed Spiro as part of some insane gambit to absolve himself of suspicion, especially since the game being at MYLO now is largely due to unforeseen circumstances.

That leaves the mafia as Frank, but I'm not going to vote yet until everything is out in the open.

Actually I just had a thought Lander. I could trade the Magnifying Glass to you, confirming that I have it, and then copy it with my role, then we have two to use on Frank, and Aragorn or me.
