Games Mafia Game 138 - Cowboy Lovebop - End Game

[GrySun]

Alright so, I am a Doctor and I think that was probably obvious given how I said my role ran opposite to my avi (Docs are healthy, fatty ain't healthy) and that I'm the pair to Erin's bodyguard.

My actions
N1: Targeted Nash per their request
N2: Targeted Erin expecting her to target Nash and become collateral from protecting Nash.

Erin shouldn't be dead right now so I was likely blocked.

We need to lynch well today or else

Tbf you could be insane and that's how we got 2 kills, right?

Hm. If Sam killed Erin then this can still be a simple Lovers vs town.

Only alternative to that is Sam lying and not being Doctor, but it looks to be the only Doc claim.

If only James lived

 

[GrySun]

Pairs:
RS + RS (NVD)
Psych + Psych
Bodyguard + Doc
Spy + Det
Noble + Troublemaker

If they're not an exact match then there's at least a thematic match between these

Does this leave Hardy and Holt to be paired? Were they the last unclaimed roles?

One of the two is lying and definitely the town lover with prostitute, unless a pair is just a convenient lie like Nash, Faust/DD, xi0.

Have I not been consistent this entire time?

Day 1 I said that my role runs kinda opposite to my avatar because doctors = good health, and fatty = bad health. D2 I said I parallel Erin's bodyguard.

Ah you're right, with xi0's healthy townie claim he's the pair I missed with Juviii so it is just Hardy and Holt

Faust's frustration sounds a lot more made up this day

 

[Hardy]

Not a huge fan of this metagamey train of thought since it implies we can "solve" the game guessing roles rather than watching the players.

It would also put a lot of faith to at least one of Gary and Gry, I think? Since it would mean that there's a blocker that indeed went for them.

Don't be a Nash#2 now.

 

[SirSamuel016]

Pairs:
DD the RS claimer + Faust the RS (NVD) claimer
Raeko the Psych + Kami the Psych (tsc)
Erin the Bodyguard + Sam the Doc
James the Spy + Nash the Det claimer
Gry the Noble claimer + Mazi the Troublemaker
Juviii the Healthy Townie + xi0 the Healthy Townie claimer
Hardy the ??? + Holt the ??? (at least one person was blocked last night, could be from one of these two; Hardy says he's not investigative or a blocker)

I agree that it shouldn't be the only thing we analyze but when it's a very apparent trend then I think it warrants a bit of consideration no?

 

[GrySun]

I like being paired with Mazino there, he's a cool guy

Not sure if I agree that it feels fake. I'd say it feels a bit on the nose after yesterday if anything, maybe forced, but doesn't seem that disingenuous

Would you bum him?

Definitely forced

@Hardy

Thought you're red tag on xi0 was a Detective reveal.

I guess I was wrong.

Where was this?????

 

[GrySun]

Is it now a game of chicken between Hardy and Holt who claims first.

 

[Hardy]

What if Nash is the blocker and admitted targeting Gary "in case there was a spy".

Gry*

 

[SirSamuel016]

@NashSilver can you explain how this serves as a hint for Det?

 

[GrySun]

You mean Gry not Gary? Faust basically spelled out James' role and I thought Sam would protect him since it sounded like Sam also understood James was spy. So I doubt they didn't know what they're killing with James. Could still be part of a fake claim though.

 

[Faust]

Totem:
Faust
Sam
Gry
Mazino
Holt
James
DD
Raeko
Erin
Nash
xi0

@SirSamuel016

 

[GrySun]

Would we get a Det this game? Can only find the killing lover no? Maybe a failsafe if we lost Raeko early, and not like Kamino would've been truthful.

James' Spy could technically find the killing Lover too.

If Holt claims a 2nd Det it will be interesting

I nearly did but I thought they'd go for Nash instead assuming James would get protected.

I gambled and lost James might've been under cover for longer had Faust thought before going OH HE'S SPY!!!
