Well isn’t that just perfect? I’m a Spices Salesman! Every night I pick somebody to send peppers, and the next day they have to claim something as absurd as possible within the realm of possibility

I picked Vipera Magnifica on both nights just for the lulz

i was going to say that i don’t really see why he would claim his trope and not his power given the possible presence of a trope killer, but actually i don’t think there is one? they would’ve had plenty of chances to act by now.

At least in the last game, the trope killer appeared to have some kind of restriction on when/how often they could use their power. They didn't kill anybody for the first couple nights there, either (and then three in one night!).

Mmm, I'm not really feeling the Mawile suspicion. He hasn't made much of an impression on me one way or another, and no one appears to have anything much concrete to say about him, just general bad vibes?

I've been thinking about Boquise getting killed last night. I'm wondering whether it might mean that there's at least one person who plays on MU among the Mafia. Given how many there are in the game, that wouldn't exactly be a surprise, but that's what makes the most sense to me... If Boquise has a reputation as someone that's scary to play against and there aren't a lot of great targets, it seems reasonable that someone familiar with his reputation would want to get rid of him early. Since he also hadn't done much in the game, his death is also one that doesn't give us a lot to work with, and could sow a bit of confusion... Whether that was the intent or not, I think it's definitely done as much! I'm not totally sure who all is in the know about the MU metagame, but my guess is something like... Eifie, Panini, Keldeo, Mist1422? That's actually fewer than I was expecting; there are a lot of new faces in the game, and I don't know how many are coming from MU versus other environments/not actually having played at all.

Of course, it could be a misdirect/bodyguard kill/completely random, but if Boquise is indeed a feared player, I think it also have been very strategic. Especially if you could turn around and try to turn his scant post history this game into implicating another player. (I say this, and then I do a search and it's eight FUCKING pages of posts, this fucking game.) Anyway, his biggest pushes were against Panini and Keldeo, but neither of them was super strong, and I think if either of them were mafia they wouldn't agree to go after Boquise to shut him up just over that. Like, that is an EXCELLENT way to get people going, "Hmm, that poor dearly departed Boquise, perhaps he had to die because he knew too much," and I don't think either Panini or Keldeo is that bad at Mafia. I'd be more suspicious of the people pointing their fingers at Keldeo over his death, which would be Eifie and mewtini. (re: post #1567, fight me tbh)

The other thing I wanted to do was review the EoD votes from yesterday, buuuut it's almost 4AM, so perhaps I will not just at the moment.

i don't really get this. you just spent time saying that you think it's likely an MU player shut down boq early because they saw him as a threat. why is him openly casting suspicion on one of the players you named as a suspect for that reason not as compelling a motive a some notion that boq is good at the game? i don't think killing people who suspect you, especially when the suspicion they're casting is light, means you're incompetent scum. it gets the job done and clearly there's no way to tell if that was the true intent behind the kill.
 
kinda just posting for posterity or something that Panini and M&F today have both felt kind of like "I'm gonna post some stuff to get the heat off me and then stop when it is"

also I looked back a bit and M&F did post once yesterday afternoon which I forgot about. idk whether that fits under my description because idk how high to make my expectations

I should also add that we're literally never going to know because "I didn't feel like playing mafia last night" is 100% valid

so at some point I have to make a decision on what I think is the most likely scenario I guess

but what's probably actually going to happen is the second there is a vote on M&F or Panini I will immediately get cold feet
