Re: Pokkén Tournament Choice Mafia - Game Thread
I'm gonna guess that Music Dragon is an alien or alien-like role, since his wild finger-pointing yesterday and his refusal to cooperate with our plan today just
reeks of trying to get lynched. Scum, please get rid of him tonight — it's in your best interest, since an alien win is good for neither town nor scum.

That aside, I believe everyone else has shared the info Negrek requested, right? So let's collate the information we've got from the thread so far:
ILS: targeted no one, then no one (adds up to 1 Synergy)
Zero Moment: targeted no one, then no one (adds up to 0 Synergy)
Negrek: targeted Kratos, then Kratos (adds up to 3 Synergy)
Music Dragon: (refuses to share data) (adds up to ?+2 Synergy)
VM (is dead) (may have targeted someone N0 or N1) (adds up to ? Synergy)
Stryke: targeted Faorzia, then Faorzia (adds up to 2 Synergy)
Superbird: targeted no one, then ILS (adds up to 1 Synergy)
Autumn: targeted MD, then Wargle (adds up to 2 Synergy)
Kratos Aurion: targeted no one, then Negrek (adds up to 3 Synergy)
JackPK: targeted Butterfree, then MD (adds up to 3 Synergy)
Butterfree (is dead) (may have targeted someone N0) (adds up to ?+2 Synergy)
Faorzia: targeted no one, then no one (adds up to 2 Synergy)
Wargle: targeted Butterfree, then JackPK (adds up to 3 Synergy)
Admittedly, the amount of unknowns on that list puts 5 Synergy Points in flux, so I don't know how helpful this will be. But we can hope!

My Synergy total is 5, which is off by 2 from what is accounted for. According to Autumn earlier in the thread, her total is 2, which matches this list. Same with ZM, who said earlier his total is 0; ILS, who said his total is 1; and Stryke, who said his total is 2.
Faorzia said she had "a" Synergy Point, which I'm assuming means "1" rather than the more general "any at all," which would mean she actually got 1
less than she should have, somehow. This seems very suspicious to me. More on that later.
Wargle said she "got two points last night," which I'm assuming means her total matches what's on the list (1 the first night, then 2 the next), but Wargle, please speak up if I'm misinterpreting and you meant that you had a
total of two points last night.
Negrek, Music Dragon, Superbird and Kratos Aurion have not said anything about their Synergy points, if my skimming through the thread is correct.

Finally, the elephant in the room: Obviously, no one has claimed to have targeted Butterfree then VM, as that would make them a prime suspect. Also, no one has claimed to have targeted VM at all, yet VM died, which makes it very clear that someone is
lying about their targets.
Meanwhile, Wargle and I both have admitted to targeting Butterfree on N0. At this point, we have to make one of two assumptions: (1) Wargle and I are both telling the truth, and the real killer lied about both of their targets; or (2) either Wargle or I told the truth about targeting Butterfree, but lied about our target on the following night.
I can only speak for myself when I say I've told the truth. But also, (2) is a bolder gambit and one that, at this early stage, I would doubt the scum would want to risk. So I'm tentatively less suspicious of Wargle than others in general.

TL;DR
- A handful of Synergy inconsistencies exist, but also a lot of unknowns, what with our dead players and Music Dragon
- Either (A) Wargle or I is a really risk-taking scum or (B) Wargle and I are both innocent
- Faorzia's Synergy is actually the biggest mystery, since she says she has 1 point fewer than she should have.
At this point, a couple of things:
FAORZIA, can you please confirm whether you have exactly 1 Synergy point, and whether you've spent any Synergy so far?
STRYKE, can you please confirm that you are telling the truth about targeting Faorzia both nights? If so, does your power say anything in particular about draining Synergy, or sometimes not giving Synergy, or anything like that?
And finally, if Faorzia confirms 1 point without spending any, and Stryke doesn't claim an unusual power, that means one of two things: either (A) Faorzia was hit by a Synergy-draining power from someone else who's lying about who they targeted, or (B) Stryke is lying.
Since abstaining mathematically has zero shot of improving the town's position and lynching has a nonzero shot, I'm going to tentatively
vote to lynch Stryke, at least until any inconsistencies are cleared up.
