Re: TV Tropes Mafia [DAY 3]
(Jack, that was Kusari who first mentioned Ketsu, fyi, not me--this is the first time I'm posting today.)

She mentioned roleclaimers specifically and they seemed to die in sync? Perhaps only the Mysterious Informants who claimed to be Informants died and there are still others?
But Ketsu didn't die, and she claimed pretty explicitly; in fact, she was the first one to point out the Expospeak power, while Zhorken never did. I'd think that would have made the deaths more likely to be Ketsu-Skylark-Mai as opposed to Zhorken-Skylark-Mai. Hm.
I don't think this was Butterchuru's doing, personally. Again, Ketsu was more detailed than Zhorken was, and if it was just "stop roleclaiming" then by all rights she should have died as well--and I find it hard to believe that a GM would place a limit on the number of players who get modkilled at once (rulebreaking is rulebreaking, after all, and I wouldn't let someone who broke rules keep playing even for one more day). It is probable that the MIs are all linked in some way, but I really can't fathom what that is or why who ends up dead seems to be so selective. Somehow I doubt that that many singletons or mafia factions/mafia killing roles would go after one-shot-power-only-marginally-helpful innocents when they could have tried to pick off someone else, though, so there must have been
some reason that three of them died at once. I wonder if there's a killing role that can hit more than one target (presumably a limited number of times)?
I am again going to ask that the MIs
stop claiming unless they have something of worth to say; Jack and TES is more than enough for today. Not even any more "well I'm not actually going to
say it, but..." claims. I'm now pretty confident that MIs are more or less the "vanilla" roles that were distributed to those without bigger tropes (unless there really is some multi-death clause, which would be... odd for vanilla, but I doubt that that's the case), so there must be others out there. As such, all MIs please shut up and let's see if anything happens to TES and Jack before you all go risking yourselves, too.
Ketsu, do you know why you might have survived (and possibly why any other MIs might have survived) and not the last three? Jack's not-claim makes it sound like there wasn't any such information explicitly given, but I dunno, you are the "lone" survivor...
And Jack, since you've all but claimed anyway, is there any way you can share your information with us without naming the trope itself?
In closing, some observations: Mawile's closet was "filled with expensive Italian suits", but there was no mention of the Legitimate Businessman's Social Club card. Just Butterchuru not bothering to bring it up, or... ?
The police are useless, hrm... that could mean bad news for our inspectors, but it could also mean that they all just have ridiculous restrictions in line with Vixie's. Don't forget that Butterchuru might also have been referring to "police" as something specific and not necessarily just "inspectors"--there could be innocent inspection roles that are not really "police", for example, and they could be more reliable. Not that we can actually tell, but it's a thought.
Walker had massive internal bleeding in addition to Superbird's ear bleedage from yesterday; I wonder what that means? Could that have been healer clash in addition to whoever was responsible for the ears (since now I definitely don't think the ears are indicative of clash--again, what idiot doctor(s) would've targeted outed mafia/alien)?
