More Yacht Mafia round 17 (night two)

Rules

Yet another yacht has set sail over the ocean. The mafia are planning to take over the boat.

The role PMs have been sent out.

Because every who sided up is fairly active, and balancing a 6 person game is difficult, I decided to have no back-up players. If someone goes inactive, and they have a night role, they will target a random person each night to keep the game fair to the other players.

(Note that the mafia will win automatically only if they make up the majority of the town -- merely being half the yacht's population is not good enough.)

In this game there are these roles
2 Mafia goons, as a faction can kill one person each night
1 Paparazzi (equivalent to Cop), can learn if someone is mafia or not each night.
1 Cook (equivalent to Jailkeeper), can lock someone up in a cupboard. This protects them from being killed by the mafia but also prevents them from taking any night actions. In other words, a combination of doctor and roleblocker.
3 Tourists (equivalent to Townies)

List of people playing:
Jehoshaphat Thrown over board day one.
bookworm
Connie G. Died night one
Agent 86
SirWhit
Tikvah
Paula

It is currently night. Night ends in three days on July 31 or when all night actions are taken.

The Sun rose the the little vessel. Alas, Connie G. was found slain in her cabin. An investigation of her personal belongings revealed that she was merely a Tourist (Townie)

This day will last one week (til Aug 7), or until a majority of votes is reached. With 6 players living, that means 4 votes are required for a majority.

Now vote on who to throw over board.

[Agent 86]

Hmm... This is a horrible crime and must be punished.

And if this game is going to advance, someone has to vote.

Vote: Jehoshaphat

I'm sorry, but we have to keep moving forward after Connie G.'s death. (I'm sorry, I had to. Terrible pun, I know. )

[bookworm]

There's nothing to go on right now, but a blind kill is better than a stalemate, so I'll go along with that for the moment, though I'm open to changing.

vote: Jehoshaphat

[Tikvah]

This sounds reasonable, unless we hear anything from the possible paparazzi.

Vote: Jehoshaphat

[Paula]

Agreeing with y'all

Vote: Jehoshaphat

[Moontide]

With four votes for Jehoshaphat, a majority was reached. Jehoshaphat was thrown overboard. The investigation that followed showed that Jehoshaphat was indeed a member of the mafia.

It is now night. Mafia, paparazzi and cook please PM me your night actions. This night will last until Aug 4 or until everyone PMs me.* If you fail to take your night action, I will randomly pick for you to target someone.


*Sorry for the short night, but I am leaving on holiday on Aug 5, and want to leave the game in the day state while I am gone.

[Connie G.]

Well I am sorry to have died on y'all while I was gone...

[Moontide]

The sun rises over the little boat bobbing on the water. No one died last night. However, they know that there is at least one mafia still around. Thus, someone will still get thrown over board today.

Vote on who to throw overboard. This day will last until Tuesday Aug 16 even if a majority is reached before then because I will be on holiday.

[Agent 86]

Hmm... I'm just going to play it safe for now.

Vote: no kill

I may change it if something develops.

If we kill the cook by accident, then we have to get tomorrow's (Day 3) kill correct or the Mafia win.
If we kill the Mafia, the Town wins.
If we kill a Townsperson, we can still win if the cook doesn't die during Night 3 or Day 3.
If we kill the paparazzi, we lose pieces of information, but again, the cook can't die on Night 3 or Day 3.

SirWhit is the last mafia. I am the cook and I locked him up last night which preventing him from targeting anyone, that is why there was no kill. I already suspected him because he was the only one who didn't vote for Jehoshaphat so I targeted him last night to test the theory and the no kill confirms it.

vote: SirWhit

[Agent 86]

bookworm's evidence sold me. I can confirm that he locked up SirWhit as when I inspected him last night, Moontide said that the cook locked him up. And I know bookworm isn't the Mafia as I inspected him the first night.

Vote: SirWhit

[SirWhit]

I actually didn't vote because I was in California, busy all day with church activities, and didn't have time to do much other than check the forums a couple times. So therefore it slipped my mind. Obviously that makes me suspicious, though, so I understand your voting for me.

Vote: No Vote (for now)

[Moontide]

With two votes for SirWhit and the time limit up. SirWhit was thrown overboard in spite of there being no majority. SirWhit was Mafia. The Town through overboard all the mafia. The tourists are saved from the evil organized crime organization. Town victory.

Maybe, I should give the mafia a greater head start because the town keeps winning amazingly quickly.

[bookworm]

To be honest, we're just being amazingly lucky. If first vote hadn't found a mafia there wouldn't have been enough information yet to reason out the second.

Max, had you investigated Jehoshaphat first night and knew and that's why you started with him, or was it just a random choice to get the first vote going?

[Connie G.]

Yay, we win again Can we do another round?

No, that was actually completely random just to get the ball rolling. I actually investigated you the first night.

[Moontide]

Yay, we win again Can we do another round?

I am not planning too, but if anyone else wants to mod one, they are welcome too.

[Monty_Whittaker]

I'll make 1.
