Okay, just read East Coast Flame link and I think I caught on now to what you were suggesting.

If GP_Matt is that "lynchproof", he might have saved himself for today. So if we lynch him, he still won't flip as dead because he saved himself. And the town will obviously lose someone overnight to the nightkill as the mafia isn't going to just let us stay whole.

Although that's alot of assuming over what's happened. But you don't sound nearly as crazy as you did when I first read it now.

so let's assume GP_Matt is indeed lynchproof. Who are the Eternals? Third-party? Special townies?

in any case, it makes no sense to keep my vote on a player we're assuming to be unlynchable for the day (also assuming this is a one-shot ability, which is highly likely).

unvote
vote RatherDashing

Well if someone used an ability to give us information before a Matt lynching, that information just confused everyone even more!

But what if it was triggered by RD's ability to identify someone's allegiance and he or someone else was letting us know about GP? I thought all townies were part of the side of the light, not some eternals group. And why has GP Matt been silent since this came up? An explanation from him would go a long way to ending the confusion.

another possibility. I'm skimming mafia wiki pages but I haven't found anything that makes sense yet

I did not activate my power today.

I have a very vague idea about what Member of the Eternals means but I would like more time to figure it out before revealing anything. The time that it appeared coincides with the time that I logged into CP this morning and has nothing to do with the whole Rather Dashing incident.

From what I can gather though the Eternals is neither good or bad.

Okay, so checking out the Mafia wikipedia page on roles, there are a TON of roles out there:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mafia_(...Optional_roles

At this point, us speculating on who used what power is a needle in the haystack game in my eyes. The roles we know in the CP maifa interations appear to be a fraction of what is possible. I don't think we should make any decisions based on somewhat wild guesses of powers and roles at this point.

I think we still have 10 votes on RD, so missing the deadline lynch is not overly likely at this point, but should be monitored with all the voting and unvoting going on.

Ok, well that tells us nothing. Neither good nor bad? Assassin role then?

Im going to wager that GP has a one time passive ability that activates once he is one vote away from lynch... The power reveals his role, makes him invincible to the lynch which then allows his night action which is an assassination... He's likely in his own group. Not light, not dark... An assassin!

That was what I guessed.

I don't get how you could have a 'vague idea' about what the Eternals are. You should either know, or not know. Way too vague of a post with no substance outside of asking for "more time"....

I call BS. You know who you are and what Eternals mean. Mazrim must have told you in your role message. Don't deny it.

None of this makes any sense to me, especially the part where there is a 'clue' left in the OP. Was this meant to be seen by everyone?

Unfortunately this evening I will only have short spurts of internet time to catch up. My vote remains on RD for now.

All this enforces the thought that GP and RD being in cahoots, no? Like I said before, they could be a two man assassination team with a chat? This explains GP's knowledge of RD's excursion... They could very well be the full fledged mafia as well for all we know... I think we should hammer RD. His flip could be very telling... Then, with GP's power likely used up, Day 2 we can lynch him; a potential second mafia or at the very least, an assassin.

My guess is that someone other than GP_Matt has a "detective" type power that they can use either once or once per day to "reveal" what someone's affiliation is in the original post. Someone PM'd mazrim to use their power on Matt, but now we're not sure whether "member of the eternals" means mafia or town.

I would guess town, but don't know enough about the flavour to be sure. I will leave my vote for now, but will check back to see if I need to change it later this evening.

Interesting but even an assassin needs to be on a team right? You win if your team wins, even if you die. Or does he just die and Bowser stomps on his corpse for fun.

While I don't necessarily disagree with your conclusion, I can't imagine a game where the power was activated automatically but which requires Mazrim to respond in real time, otherwise the power could be moot by the time the next vote comes along.

I.e. Mazrim won't make the game such that he has to monitor in real time every 5 minutes just for the intent of the powers to work.

I think we should lynch gp_matt.

My running theory is he is mafia, rd is town. The wifi slip up was an accident. So he hand no problems railroading RD out the door.

If he is lynchproof I don't see why it would trigger a reveal of your identity. That would be a pretty useless power as the next night you die. Even if he is lynchproof we still can lynch him again tomorrow. 2 townie deaths to 1 mafia death is a good deal at the end of day 2
