Mafia 4

OP says:

INVESTIGATIONS - An investigator can follow their target for the day to discover their activities. If recruited by the mafia they retain their abilities.

As the investigation took place during the day, and vigilante acts at night, it could be that the paper would not reveal anything. Or it could be that, like previous games, the investigators only find out if someone is 'town' or 'not town'.

 

If Milk is the hack, he may now have no more powers. In which case, finding out the vigilante may be more useful than the hack. Unlikely though, as the vigilante then hasn't killed anyone yet and so would have bullets left.

Also, MITO basically called Milk innocent, and if the Milk isn't he vigilante, then one of Gerrez or MITO's deaths is unexplained. This would presumably have been the work of the vigilante.

 

Sorry guys. I've got work piled up, and loads of meetings to chair etc. over the next couple of weeks - I won't be able to play (although I did sign up, so sorry).

Can someone take my role - if I have one???

 

Both possible. My comment was based on the order of night events; vigilante acts before the investigations are reported (which in turn could mean that the investigators see the vigilante act).

 

Sir Tennisball has taken your place

 

Also effectively means we get an extra innocent vote compared to the last couple of days; could be useful.

 

If Lucaas is the mafia recruiter, as Milk claims, then yesterdays paper was hacked and the mafia have no hacks left, which means this article is genuine.
If this article is genuine then "Milk is, and always has been" a regular townie, meaning he is lying about being the vigilante.

If Lucaas is innocent, then yesterdays paper wasn't hacked, meaning todays paper could be. Which doesn't really tell us anything.

Unless neither were hacked.

Whats irking me is why Milk has come out as a regular townie, because he is either mafia, or the vigilante. So why does it say he is a regular townie, and if he is a regular townie, what possible motive would he have for framing Lucaas? It doesn't make sense.

 

I did offer before but I can't now because I know everything

 

Given that no-one's been recruited, we've got a bit of an unhelpful journalist then if they're changing their story on Lucaaas! This probably means that at least one was hacked. Also, todays post doesn't follow the widely discussed suggestion of stating whether the previous post was hacked, which could perhaps have been helpful. Maybe the journalist isn't allowed to say that, maybe they thought the Lucaaas infor would do the same thing.

 

You're assuming that the paper will show the role. It hasn't in previous games IIRC, it has just shown whether someone is 'town' or 'not town'.

Tbh I don't think the town would want to paper to give out roles, as it would just highlight persons of importance to the Mafia. So I would have thought that even if the journo finds out who has a specific role they would not necessarily tell the town, for fear of getting an important person killed.

 

Would any kindly soul like to summarise what happened last night for me?

 

As I said above, your first comment is certainly possible. Could just be bad wording by the journalist."Regular townie" is also a role though, rather than "town".

Regarding your second comment, that makes sense if it was written before Milk came out, but in this case, surely revealing the role would have provided corroboration (if the paper wasn't hacked).

 

If the journalist can say if yesterdays article was hacked, then surely he would have done if it was hacked. As he hasn't, we can conclude that yesterdays article wasn't hacked...unless this article was hacked, in which case yesterdays couldn't have been if mafia only get one hack.

 

Welcome Sir

 

BRB was lynched. He was innocent.
MITO was the detective and died. Presumably he was asssassinated by the mafia.
Gerrez died and was innocent. Milk claims to shot him as the vigilante because he thought Gerrez had changed his settings, but Gerrez was just on the phone.
Milk then claimed that the mafia tried to recruit him last night, it went to a shootout, no-one died. However, he did find out that Lucaaas is the mafia recruiter (he claims).

Morning paper says Milk regular town, Lucaaas evil.

 

We know for sure Lucaaaas bums badgers

 

He did effectively say that the information in the first article was false, which is tantamount to saying it was hacked. I think we can assume at least one was hacked. Unless the journalist is/was bluffing, in which case, I stand by my comment of them not being helpful!

 

Did he?

Where? It says just says he is a full kit ****er () same as yesterdays article

PS...you forgot to add the following:

Gerrez tried to top himself by voting for himself but still couldn't get lynched. His vote was then stupidly rejected by the game lord anyway.
