Blank Canvas Mafia Game Thread

Hmm, so all you drew was Perhaps Otis? From the action that appears to be bus driving me and Mawile, I had been assuming that more doodles got split up into multiple puzzle pieces...

Ephemera messaged me "moo" in the middle of the night last night, which I assume is because the Harvest Moon cow looks like it's talking to me in the upper left corner of the canvas? At least, no investigative action went through.

I don't have a strong opinion about whether the doodlers should claim, but it seems like there probably isn't a good reason to yet...?

For what it's worth I believe the claim, but I had already been thinking there might be mafia doodlers (outnumbered by town ones), so I dunno. But I recognize this is a lazy conclusion. I don't really know what to make of the fatalism.
 
I assumed Keldeoooo being mooed at and/or the shepherd were the results of the canvas

I also have a funny theory about which pieces of the puzzle were drawn by mafia but idk if I should share it because I'm not sure how much we should talk about the canvas. I expected people to be talking about it today but no one did until now so. idk?

I believe the doodlers are the vanillas of this game so they should definitely not claim because that just tells the mafia who not to target
 
I have returned.

Looking back at my strategy on Day 1, I can sort of see why people would vote me (maybe being very vague and not voting anyone).
I haven't had much time to look over past messages so I have not thought of who to vote yet - we have another 24-48 hours of this day so at least I have time.

(I think we only have 10 hours)
 
I have been wanting to ask the shepherd anything but I have nothing to ask. should we strike for better grazing conditions
we might as well. the worst thing that can happen is we are burned at the steak for exercising our right to moonionize.
 
At first I thought of trying to protect someone, but since it would be just a single action for the whole canvas I didn't want to interfere if anyone else had a bigger plan (it looks like multiple people were trying to investigate?). But we haven't heard from anyone yet so idk what effect that ended up having
wait, what? what does this mean? how would you "protect someone"? multiple people were trying to investigate?
 
dear Shepherd, I am stressed about a dumb game on the internet that doesn't matter for literally no reason again. can you please mix in some tranquilizers into my feed? in thee I trust. amen.

pondering if I should just talk about my funny theory of which pieces were drawn by mafia because it does NOT include sideways perhaps Otis but maybe I'm just dumbass
 
i feel pretty weird about the dead air on this dodge wagon, but i could also see a world where the mafia just aren't that fussed about saving him because this has been going on for basically the whole game now and they'd have to really draw attention to themselves to get an alt wagon going at this point.
 
Just a heads-up - I have a pretty important life thing tomorrow morning (around the time EOD would normally be) so I won't be able to process EOD as I normally would.

I was thinking either extending day by 12 or 24 hours - would that be okay? Either that or EOD still happens and you guys just uh. Stop talking until I can process it within 6ish hours.

Sorry for the short notice!
 
I should probably vote now, but I don't know who to vote but not voting is not a good idea 🥴
I will have a quick look back on day 1 then vote someone.
 
I ended up going on a hike yesterday and passed out immediately upon getting home (ᯤ ᯅ ᯤ) Whoops. I am at work now but!! Will backread and hopefully have some thoughts (or at least questions) between tasks o7
 
ok sorry I kept having to actually do my job at work but now I will talk about my silly crack theory that may or may not be just a silly crack theory. at least it would be really fun if it was right

anyway I think those two pieces of Keldeo being swapped with Mawile are really good candidates for the kinds of things a mafia member would draw to give a surface appearance of doing something good for town while not actually being all that helpful. I think this because I'm pretty sure no one actually expressed any sort of town lean on Keldeo d1 (except me a little, vaguely). so it feels like a town motivation (protect Keldeo by potentially making kill attempts on him go to Mawile instead) is actually less likely than a mafia motivation (if a vig tries to resolve Mawile for us overnight, they might kill Keldeo instead). (this would only make sense if Keldeo is town, though.) and well, also kinda the fact that one person got two pieces while I think everyone else probably got one, but that's more minor.

and I mean yeah those pieces were probably completely irrelevant to the canvas because Mawile died but I assume either the drawer didn't have a chance to draw something else or they wanted to make that excuse

if possible, I would prefer not extending by 12 hours because that's just overnight for me so either I would sleep through the extra time or feel obligated to play mafia in the middle of the night 😅 24 hours or just not talking after the end of day would both be fine with me!
 
I can role reveal if the information might help??? Not sure if that would be a dumb move or not; other than maybe getting lightning stricken for role reveal stuff if there are anti-reveal mafia powers.
