Day IV: Unfinished Business

[Elixir]

Day IV:

InFamous 2: The Blue Soundtrack - [Track 18/23] - Unfinished Business

(You know the drill refresh till you see it)

"Unfinished Business"

The New Marais militia had come to expect murder in the night now... They taunted the freaks for attacking under the cover of darkness like cowards... The morning of the fourth day was no different.

While experts are still examining the body, security footage from newly installed city cameras caught Brian having a very interesting evening. The camera's first caught sight of him around 10:47 pm walking in what seemed like a trance towards Ascension Parish when someone in a gown approached him. The two appeared to converse for some time when Brian held his hands to his head as if he had a splitting migrane... he then lost his mind and attacked the gowned individual. The fight takes place only half on camera but the outcome is evident... Brian lay on the ground with a cross burnt into his head as if some religious fanatic tried to exorcise a demon from within him. The robed person leaves the scene at this point

What the Camera's caught next was Brian squirming around on the ground... attempting to crawl to aid when he was stopped by a man in a silver suit... Brian could not stop what happened next as the man in the suit seemed to conjure a shard of ice from thin air and slit his throat... leaving him to bleed out on the side walk.

The forum was told in the morning that post mortem examination is still to be finalized but it appears that some form of unknown noxious toxin was found in Brian's blood, concentrated in his Brain... It is highly likely that is what caused his Psychosis.

Elsewhere, Elizabeth was found dead in her home... another case of power outage in the area. Her home looked like it had been hit with an explosion. All the electrical appliances looked like they had burst simultaneously with Elizabeth caught right at the epicenter... It was a grotesque sight as Elizabeth was not in one piece when she was found.

An unexpected sight greeted the Militia when they entered the forum room. Steve's body was crumpled over a statue of Justice with a gunshot wound to the head and a Vermaak 88 suit resting alongside him. The crowd cheered as the threw his body around like a beach ball until such a time that they threw it out the window. A messenger sent to investigate Steve's home found multiple spare Vermaak 88 suits of different sizes, weapons and other strange gadgets as if they were meant to be placed at scenes as false evidence.

Despite their high spirits, they all knew deep down that Cole MacGrath still sat among them... especially Bertrand... who was growing increasingly less patient as time went on.

The Beast is 600 Miles from New Marais.

Brian:

Journal of Brian, the dog investigator.

Night 1: I was so hungry today, having just arrived in this cursed city only to be locked down like a dog. Wait I am a dog. Anyway, I sniffed around some houses trying to find food, some stale bread in a dumpster and rotting cheese filled me up a little. Then it occured to me that I should try to end this lockdown, yeah I start thinking once my stomach is full, problem? So what are my skills, what can I do, i'm a dog. I can sniff stuff, maybe I can find those freaks, after all their smell should be diffrent from normal people right? So I went after someone who smelled fishy during the assembly, this guy called Delores. I waited until he left his house then went in through the doggy door, he didn't expect that did he?! His dog was sleeping so I went ahead and sniffed through his stuff, apparently he likes to stalk and survey people at night... From what I know that means he's either a Detective, a Lookout or a Disguiser.

Night 2: I found a good source food in the form of a nice restaurant's trash can. Oh boy, you wouldn't believe the kind of delicacies they throw in the trash! Spoiled rich folk not finishing their meals, all the better for a hungry dog. Tonight I went to check on Alan, it was easy getting in because he left a window open. I wolfed down a piece of meat he left out to defrost, hey why not while i'm at it? Then I found something interesting, weapons! Lots of them. What does this guy do exactly? Scary stuff. Judging by his belongings he could be a Militia Extremist, or possibly a Conduit. There is that odd angle of him being a Jailor, but I have my doubts about that.

Night 3: Amber said she investigated me, well obviously her result was wrong or she is lying on purpose to get me killed. Going to check her tonight, although i'm not sure how much that will help.

If you found this journal then I guess I didn't survive the night, animal haters. No melons for you.

Elizabeth:

Hi all! Here is my final words of wisdom.
People i found suspicious after day 2
Ralph is my #1 suspect.
Delores needs to be shot.
I don't trust Faye(Claw). While I never thought of identidy as that big a deal, I admit to being Auckmid. For some reason, I find Town-Claw more suspicious then Mafia-Claw

Day 1 suspicouns(More likely to be wrong)
Jerry I find somewhat suspicious with all his "Finding Tom" stuff.
As well as Joshua
and Jesse
maybe Jimmy
Thelma
Chris

'Dat is all

Add; Anyway, Delores is an uter troll and probable Jester. I'm going to take care of him tonight.

Theordore is not definately the executioner. He could be the Soul of the Beast. Please, I beg of you, make sure he does not survive to Day 6. That is when the beast arives, and the game ends that morning.

Lastly, something I just realized is that Raiden(Jannet) has yet to put down a clear scum list, which is quite unlike town Raiden. Just saying.
Sorry for makeing my last will so hard to read, but I've been applying, so I don't forget to put down my thoughts since day 1.

Steve:

The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated. Wait... shit.

[Amber]

Still alive.

[Alan]

Still alive.

Nice. What have you discovered tonight?

[Alan]

Oh, I almost forgot. I was never blocked as Patrick claimed.

[Amber]

Does the RP mean Brian was attacked twice? Once by mafia and once by the masons?

[Alan]

Does the RP mean Brian was attacked twice? Once by mafia and once by the masons?

It's pretty clear from the death description. Mason stuff + ice stuff

[Amber]

PS: I love you vigilantes.

[Alan]

Derp. I've just read Brian last will.

Yes, i own weapons. I am in fact one of the Militia Extremists. I shot Faye and Steve, one shot left. I don't care claiming since the consort is dead and probably there's no witch. I'm saving my last shot for the beast, if I find it.

Also, I'm Illidan, before someone else claims it like last game.

[Emerald]

this gives us tons of information.

- i had the same thought as elizabeth, theodore could be the soul of the beast. executioner and soul both don't have a nightaction, he cannot be discovered by lookouts or detectives. although they don't have the same investigative messages, claiming executioner is kind of an easy way out. nobody will want to waste a lynch or even investigation on an executioner and he is unlikely to be attacked at night as well (and even if, he has some safety there). it's also quite easy to act like an executioner while you're not one: just pick a target and try to get him lynched. and now he tries to appear as he is helping town, which isn't very likely for a real executioner (he would either not care because he already won or if he wants/has to survive he would lay back to not get into the focus of anyone that could kill him).

- brian's last will is probably full of lies. priest recruiting comes before reaper recruiting so he couldn't have been recruited the same night as he was killed.
this makes it very clear that amber is an investigative role, although she could very well be the red consigliere, since she only gave an orange mafia and a neutral away. the only thing we know for sure: she wasn't a reaper yesterday.

- we now have found the investigator that was definitely in this setup. this makes it very unlikely that both janet and amber are investigators as well. for the time being they are both suspicious of being consigliere instead. the reason for janet: the one person she revealed is probably busdriver and the other was in the cit/gf/rebel leader/reaper leader category. if she is consig, she would already know that yolanda wasn't gf, and revealing one of the other roles would be beneficial as well.

[Jerry]

I thought we already got to many busdriven claims to not belive his busdriver claim don't we?

[Roger]

Finally, the night kills actually hit some scum. Either way, I'd say the soul is the highest priority right now for everyone. We all lose if he doesn't. I'm really hoping someone has suspicions? I can see how emeralds thoughts about Theo make sense too, but I'll wait a little before casting my vote.

[Todd]

What do we have on Theodore being the soul of the beast evidence wise? I am really starting to doubt he is town at least but we need to kill the soul to survive. Janet is probably cosigliere and should be shot if vigs have any shots left.

also a nice quote from ralph yesterday before patrick was shot

I still dont trust Amber. It's kinda hard to figure out the rest, but I believe Faye. That defense would be too dumb for a mafia person to work.

-vote Amber

obvious mafia buddying is obvious

[Phillip]

can someone post the technique to search peoples posts in this thread(and previous days) efficiently? I remember there being an efficient way of doing so shown in Fm3 or 4. I can't remember.


Anyways before investigating previous posts, my gut feeling is with Theodore being the Soul of the Beast. I would like to look back though before making a vote on him.

Also I doubt Brian was lying, it looked like he posted most of his LW before he got turned. Besides, he has every reason to want those people killed as they oppose his leader.

LASTLY, any CC on Alan's Extremist claim?

[Emerald]

I thought we already got to many busdriven claims to not belive his busdriver claim don't we?

wut? afaik theodore never claimed busdriver.

What do we have on Theodore being the soul of the beast evidence wise? I am really starting to doubt he is town at least but we need to kill the soul to survive.

he claimed executioner, he already said he isn't town.

Also I doubt Brian was lying, it looked like he posted most of his LW before he got turned. Besides, he has every reason to want those people killed as they oppose his leader.

that's not possible. priest recruiting happens before reaper recruiting, so he must have been recruited at least the night before this one, otherwise he wouldn't have been killed by a priest. and that he mentioned night 3 in his last will means that he wrote it after being recruited to the reapers.

[Emerald]

forgot to put two things in my last post:

1. theodore being soul of the beast is just a gut feeling atm, he shouldn't be lynched for that alone. although we have to begin searching for the soul of the beast, we have at least till tomorrow to find him.

2. alan, if you're really militia extremist, i'd like to hear your reasoning why you shot faye and steve.

[Alan]

2. alan, if you're really militia extremist, i'd like to hear your reasoning why you shot faye and steve.

I shot Faye because he lied about the Extremist mechanics Day3. I know since I've asked lots of clarifications on them. So I was 100% sure he wasn't the Extremist, but if I didn't shot him everyone would have believed that thanks to the other Extremist, so I kinda had to do it.

After he flipped mafia, I saw Steve accusing Amber and buddying with Faye so I decided to go with him. And in fact he was in the same team as Faye.

[Jerry]

I thought we already got to many busdriven claims to not belive his busdriver claim don't we?

wut? afaik theodore never claimed busdriver.

Oh your right, I just remembered that he claimed his avatar is somehow linked to his role and totally forgot about velma

[Rosenberg]

It seems to me that the "cool" thing to do is to suspect Theodore as the Soul of da Beast. I suspect that orange mafia hit the soul of da beast N2 (no ice holes in anyone). Although some people whom I believe wholeheartedly to be town are getting a "gut feeling", I would have every one be aware of that. Orange mafia might know who the soul of da beast is. This is purely speculation, mind you.

I'm not saying that a lynch against the soul of da beast is bad. I agree with it completely. I just want the awareness of a possible situation to be out there.

[Candice]

Oh boy, what a night. With 2 days and 2 nights left to find the beast and no more day shots remaining, here are two suggestions on how to best find him:
1) We, as a town, come up with the most likely candidates for being the soul of the beast. One is lynched today, one is shot tonight(or the next night if you prefer), and another is investigated. This gives us coverage over 4 suspects, as the investigation will be definitive proof one way or another in all likelihood, so the 4th would be the odd-man-out in that scenario.

2) If all else fails, we make an attempt at killing Sasha. There is a chance by now that she has recruited the Soul of the Beast, and if she dies he might die as well. This will have to happen no later than tomorrow(I believe? If she dies at night do they suicide the same night?) This, of course, is very much an if. And a risky gamble at that, but if someone does happen to know who she is it'd be a worthwhile gamble.

P.S. Keep in mind, while the soul of the beast is very important, we also have to actually win the game afterwards as well. Continue to seek out evil, as this fight is nowhere near over.

[Amber]

Regarding Janet and I.

First of all, I believe there is one Random Power Town unaccounted for. Am I correct?

If this is so it is at least theoretically possible we are both Investigators. This would bring the total of Investigators to 3. Do I think this is likely? No.

The odds make it seem as though Janet must be the consigliere. I am going to look at the circumstances of her 'reveal' and the information she had at the time. As I recall most of the Random Power Towns were unaccounted for at the time of her reveal which probably made it look like a safe reveal.

[Amber]

We have made a large dint in the mafia. However the cult is a concern. What is a reasonable estimate of their size at the moment given 1 is dead?

I wonder how much the mafia consigliere could be trusted to aid us in investigation or if that would just be asking for trouble.

[Amber]

Btw is the random killing neutral STILL unaccounted for???

Arsonist? Why has nobody reported being doused?

[Candice]

Why would you say that? In fact, didn't you claim Brian was a rebel? Mind explaining that before I answer your question?

[Candice]

Why would you say that? In fact, didn't you claim Brian was a rebel? Mind explaining that before I answer your question?

Please excuse me, drowsiness is not my best friend. Anyway, I still think it most likely that Laroche is in play. There are only 4 citizens still alive so being able to kill is very unlikely at this point.

[Amber]

Given that there have been no reports of dousing you are probably correct.

[Velma]

WHO DID EVERYONE INVESTIGATE, i am not claiming drives until after roles investigate due to scum hunting

[Velma]

Also, in my personal opinion, Olga, who has not had any activity but is still playing the game is the biggest beast target. Otherwise she should have been modkilled by now*AHEM* ELIXIR *AHEM*

[Amber]

i investigated Philip.

[Velma]

Okay, well I didn't drive Philip so your read is clean

[Candice]

I suspect that orange mafia hit the soul of da beast N2 (no ice holes in anyone).

This is very unlikely, Patrick claimed to have been attacked and healed. While there is still a chance that they lied, I don't think there was any reason to do so in that scenario.

[Amber]

If Patrick was healed it means there's a second medic alive.

[Candice]

If Patrick was healed it means there's a second medic alive.

Yes, that it does.

[Velma]

I suspect that orange mafia hit the soul of da beast N2 (no ice holes in anyone).

This is very unlikely, Patrick claimed to have been attacked and healed. While there is still a chance that they lied, I don't think there was any reason to do so in that scenario.

I don't think there's a medic left, of they were stupid enough to heal one of the investigators instead of me (unless they did but I didn't fine out, in which the mafia is stupid for not attacking me)

[Amber]

Well following the continuing of this scenario - they DID heal a mafia. Who knows who they'll choose to heal.

[Olga]

I am really sorry guys, I've been having account problems and it's just been fixed last night. If it helps apparently I was bus driven or drugged.

[Olga]

I would really like for Elixir to confirm this publically as it really has been a drag for me.

[Amber]

The first question. Do we believe this?

If he's telling the truth, why wasn't he replaced?

[Olga]

There's not really much going for me at the time, I haven't been replaced which gives pretty bad implications for myself. I don't see why I haven't been replaced or modkilled though, as someone stated in the previous day thread, I haven't even logged on a single fucking time the entire forum game until now.

[Amber]

What is your role?

[Olga]

Spree Killer

and then I was deemed a troll for the entirety of the game. I don't think what role I claim at this point will keep me from getting lynched as a potential Soul of the Beast target.

[Amber]

Jester might.

[Olga]

For the moment I have to leave for my next class, hopefully by the time I get back and can post again Elixir would have confirmed my password change or at least give a reason I haven't been swapped or mod-killed. God knows we all want Plato to join.

[Ralph]

I think Velma should tell us who she drove now, so she can prove she the bus driver and not the arson.

[Velma]

dont be a dumbass ralph, ive proven im bus driver, also consigs can just say *i looked up this person, that means the other person you drove, whos obviously town is actually not*

[Ralph]

what??

Also, how did you prove you're bus?

[Velma]

roger and candice admitted being to bus yesterday. I said I drove them

[Ralph]

No, you gave no proof. You named 4 people. 2 already admitted they got driven. 2 still haven't admitted it.

So you have no proof.

Unless you give it now.

[Ralph]

Ok, Roger did admit it. Can we believe him though?

[Gladys]

We can assume, based on this information, that Amber, Delores, and Alan are unlikely to be a part of the Reapers. If he was indeed telling the truth about those 3 people, then we can assume that the cult would use this information to gather the strongest reaper army possible. By that logic, I would assume that Amber has also been culted. It is pretty obvious that Amber is an investigative role. The more investigative roles there are in the cult, the stronger they become. I highly doubt that Brian would out his cultists buddies entirely. I would assume he'd leave at least one real one in his list to throw us off. This is mere speculation, of course.

[Velma]

Ok, Roger did admit it. Can we believe him though?

exactly why i vote for him every day
