[color="#cc8899"]Ok, LONG story time.
First day of my investigations - I pm ClawOfBeta and Holypie, stating that I am a mafian and that I will kill them if they do not vote the way I tell them to (for BTA) the next day. Claw "agrees" as does Holypie, at which point I tell them both that I am, indeed, not a mafian and that I was trying to manipulate them to control voting. Claw dies that night, and (thankfully) the thief had intervened, saving me from his kill (he thought I was mafia, and PM'd BTA as such).
Second day of my investigations - I pm BTA, telling him the same thing -that I am a mafian, and will kill him if he does not vote for Holypie. I then pm Holypie, informing him of my plan to investigate Mira by asking her to votekill BTA then Holypie. I claimed to her that BTA was a mafian and Holypie a townie, and that votekilling BTA would make me appear innocent to everyone else, allowing me to manipulate them into their doom. Two things tipped me off that she was a mafian during this investigation:
1. Despite pretty intelligently challenging WHY she should go along with my plan (since she'd lose anyway), I told her that we'd end the game without killing her, but it's a really weak argument, she agreed to for
2. TWO days. At which point she pledged to "renegotiate." Assuming a 25% mafian population, that would be exactly enough time for the mafia to win if both BTA and Holypie were civilians and assuming the mafia kills 2 civilians at night. At this point I trusted both Holypie and BTA, and shifted my suspicion to Mira. For someone who had argued so well against helping me, agreeing to help for 2 days then splitting from the plan was just too coincidental.
Then I talked to BTA again, explaining that I suddenly trusted him and was shifting my vote to Mira, advising himto do the same. He refused to believe that I was a townie, so I attempted to convince him I was the detective (bad move, the detective had, unbeknownst to me, already contacted him). When that failed, I told the truth - that I was a regular townie, but could not reveal how I knew Mira was mafia. Because of this, he didn't trust the info, and I died, noting that Holypie and BTA would be confirmed to be townies with my death proving my innocence.
So, for a person with no role, I managed to uncover the identities of 3 players through a very risky and sneaky investigative method. Go me?[/COLOR]
