Gen I Pokemon Mafia - Mafia Wins

oh my god I lost half my responses...

@Kyrastri; yay i love reading your theories wen i wake up <3. also i hate grass tbh, im more of an ice, psychic, ghost chick.
and my move is a gen 2 move so its not all gen 1 im guessin

editted: PM cleared things up with tht so dont mind it at all, hence the strike.

I'm glad you enjoy my theories

If you don't mind me asking, what do you mean by the PM?

-laughs maniacally-

Right now, I'm thinking at least Match Theory is in place. Physical/Special resistance is a bit Farfetch'd (heh).

... Is that an actual mafia claim?

Either you're pulling our legs or you're serious... And I don't know whether it's a really smart or a really dumb mafia ploy if you're serious...

Naturally? Yes.

This at least somewhat confirms that our moves are naturally learnable (mine is), unless someone wants to point out that their move is a TM move. xBTAx still has a point that it's possible that our pokemon and move names are flavour stretched to fit each role.

Do you mind expanding on this? As I already said earlier, I agree that what Cakes said clears nothing, but I don't agree with the sentiment that it leaves me looking more suspicious. I didn't receive any notice of being attacked last night, and I would not have known at all if it wasn't for Cakes posting it here. I feel like what you/other people considering that option is essentially this;"The mafia tried to kill Hypermug, therefore he is mafia." It just doesn't make sense to me.

I had a better response but I'm in a rush to recover my main points so:

- With the knowledge that you didn't get a PM makes cakes a bit more suspicious
- Paired with his weird claims and deliberate ambiguity, he's the most suspicious to me at the moment (I understand where Olsi's getting at, but I kinda believe VerrKol... Or want to believe, anyway)

- On the other hand, Cakes claimed he was forced to target Hyper BEFORE Hyper admitted that he didn't know about it, which helps to clear him a little

- Either way I'm going to really expand on this list of possibilities today, but I pineappleing lost half of it so I'm kinda pissed off

Regarding Luv's power, I think it kind of sucks for the town because if he accidentally hits a townie, they're kind of boned based on RNG. If he manages to find a mafioso, there's no guarantee that they'll actually be blocked. This actually makes it seem more likely that there is another proper roleblocker. As for Luv's alignment, I can't really say but I'd think that the two roleblockers would be on opposite teams.

What leads you to believe that there's "no guarantee that they'll actually be blocked"? What's the difference between that and no guarantee that town will actually be blocked?

I get that there's more town than mafia, but a mafia doctor (the only role that I can think of that would block something like a roleblock) seems... I don't know. Weird? Maybe niernen's broken the mold, but I somehow really doubt that the mafia has a doctor, because 1) following move theory I haven't picked out a particularly 'sketchy' healing move yet (I'm practically on bulbapedia 24/7 LOL), and 2) we don't know whether town protect even protects against roleblock-type moves, let alone a possible mafia protect. That wording's terrible, but I hope you understand me :c

Also, did I miss something or did Kyrastri; say who she targeted?

Sorry, I didn't mention it earlier. I targeted [MENTION=8192]LuvDWayULie[/MENTION];, and off the top of my head this was roughly my line of thinking:

 dat kyrastri logic

- I voted for the guy, and he wasn't lynched so I didn't want to leave him off for the night.
- The Pikachu claim seemed a bit too dubious to me; I may have been a little OP-dependent here but when it says that it's deciding who goes to Hoenn, of course the pineappleing mascot of the pokemon franchise will make it? Why is that even a battle to get to Hoenn to begin with?
+ Note that I don't doubt that he is an electric type (especially now with the paralysis confirmation), but I believe that he's not the pokemon he says he is simply because his original pokemon was more suspicious than the cute cuddly mouse thing. Given the circumstances, he would have wanted to push that he was innocent and maybe his original pokemon was not the way to go.
- I'm not 100% of how my move works. I've looked up the move and know how it works in theory, but the way it's been worded suggests that it might be more than just what my move originally did. Out of everyone here, I thought Luv was the most 'disposable' if it ever came to the fact that something went wrong. I've never been a fan of his "eye on you" posts, and I've never really understood his logic. I would rather have gotten rid of a potential hazard to town (town roleblockers are dubious for potential misfires) than a potential help to town.

I think it is safe to assume parasect. The only thing that concerns me about that and why I had asked who Kyrastri targeted is because if she used rage power or some type of spore on CakesXD, that could be the reason CakesXD felt compelled to attack Hypermug. Then I guess it was she "inhibited" via attract? It is just another theory...although the last one didn't go to well because I missed a big clue, so I don't want to miss another clue...

I am totally not agreeing with you :U totally

But look above, I targeted Luv. Your theory wouldn't have worked, anyway; my pm said that I missed because I was 'dazed'.
