Blank Canvas Mafia Game Thread

My job is actively putting me in the trash compactor (tasks) so for now, I'm going to Vote Dodge. Reasoning being at the moment he's the only player at the moment I have slightly more sus on than the others & I'm don't feel super good about the meme canvas.

I might switch if I'm able to get back online before EOD & people have more persuasive thoughts than I.
 
at my computer now, woomoo!!

So prefacing, I'd been thinking about this since last night but wanted to make sure of Dodge's one-piece claim before anything, but I'm rrrreasonably sure there was more than just missingno? who had two pieces. I went to compare some of the pieces to see if there's anything that could connect them, and the blues from the Dodge one (not otis) and the text bubbles one are nearly identical in hue (I'm willing to bet actually identical, but the canvas itself is a little fuzzy, so I couldn't color pick definitively). The other two non-cow ones don't seem to have any matching colors aside from pure black, but the lineless coloring seem similar to me. I'm fully convinced the former two are from the same person, and somewhat convinced the latter two are from a separate same person.

I don't doubt that Dodge drew Perhaps Otis; if he hadn't, it'd be absurdly risky to claim unless he were sure Otis came from mewtini, and idk how someone could be sure of that at this point in the game. Likewise, I don't really doubt he only had the one, but if we're assuming missingno?, mewtini, and a third doodler all had two pieces a piece (hehe), then if a wolf doodler does exist, Dodge's single one feels the most suspect.
 
I'm not really sure how to word this so I'll just say it 🤷‍♂️
Last night there was an investigative action.
I don't really know what that entails but it sounds good...

!! Deets? Or was that all you received, just the knowledge that some type of investigative action happened? :o

there's an even number of pieces in the canvas, though, so at least one other person also had only one piece.
 
I actually originally thought the mafia have 2 pieces and everyone else has 1, so it's 2v6 on the canvas, but the thing about the same blue is convincing...
 
see my crackpot addition to my hypothesis is that I think the other cow is just straight up from Ephemera themself, bc the little lines makes it look like the cow is mooing at everyone, which would track well enough with Keldeo getting moo'd during the night. But I have way less basis on that so LMAO

That's all I have 😔
I'm not too sure how this could be useful...
Is learning this something to do with your role, or were you just unexpectedly told this overnight?

Yeah, it's my role.

On the subject of voting, I (as usual) don't have time to vote. I'll just leave it instead of a non-elimination vote as to not interrupt the other votes.

(I get this looks very suspicious but I just think it's the best)

Huh! Interesting
I was starting to supect missingno?, and having two pieces instead of one was part of it, but now that you mention it, I can see those others being paired.
That said, wouldn't it be a bit weird to give mafia specifically one fewer piece? That would kinda single them out and give it away a bit too easy, right?
I think it would make more sense, balance-wise, for either everyone to have the same number, or for the number to not correspond to alignment at all

Either way, I'll unfortunately be out for the last few hours of the Day, so won't have much chance to look through posts and defend myself here.
If I had to pick someone I suspect, I guess it would be missingno? for the whole yin and yang thing, which seemed strange given mewtini and I are both just Idea Doodlers. Very tenuous line of thought, but it's the only one I have right now, so I'll Vote: missingno?

In the likely case I go down: My one regret is not milking the puns while I had the chance

I actually thought this too, not sure if it means anything but since Ephemera is the one putting the drawing together I thought that they were the Cow Overlord conveying the info. I also can't imagine what a cow and a speech bubble could be trying to convey, but then the same goes for sideways perhaps Otis.

hm. @Ever any idea where you're going to vote today?
I've been waffling between Dodge and missingno? all day, I was originally on Dodge for reasons of general suspicion, but then I felt like missingno? was making a lot of assumptions about drawing roles/mechanics. If we hadn't extended day, I think I would have locked in with a missingno? vote.

I like DarkAura's speculation about the drawing of Dodge and the conversation bubbles being the same person, but if (and it's a big if) I assume that harvest moon cow wasn't a player drawing, that leaves 7 tiles for either a 2/2/2/1 or 2/2/1/1/1 split ??? The only guess I would have about mewt's drawing would be maybe that she drew Dodge (since she was suspecting him) and therefore also the conversation bubbles, but I don't feel confident about that at all :,-) Sincerely hoping that the next drawing helps connect some of these dots and that we have time to work it out.

I also thought her thing about those being by the same person was interesting. Do you think this makes her more likely to be town? I was unaffected in that regard because mech spec is a very easy kind of neutral thing to do as either alignment, and also, in a closed roles game it's very easy to manipulate mech speculation to make someone look bad. I do have the definite sense that she was excited about it, but again, I don't think that's alignment indicative... it's just fun to speculate on these things! and it's something the mafia would definitely want to know too... any thoughts there?
