Ace Attorney [Mafia] |OT| Turnabout Scum

February 20, 9:47 AM
District Court
Courtroom No. 2

The sight that greeted us when we entered the courtroom was something that we would never forget. At first glance, it looked like Edgeworth and Nick had arrived before us. There was an odd stillness in the courtroom though. We knew something was wrong because the man arrested as Gregory Edgeworth the day before had mysteriously disappeared and we wanted to gather everyone together to figure out what was going on. Obviously, things weren't over. Tears started streaming down my face. One man standing on the side of the defense

and one man standing on the side of the prosecution

Both were dead.

Barrylocke and RobotNinjaHornets have been removed from the game

Welcome Barrylocke!

You are Miles Edgeworth, Ace Prosecutor

Your role is Vanilla Town

Although you were once as cold and ruthless as your mentor, Manfred von Karma, your series of defeats at the hands of your childhood friend and current rival, Phoenix Wright, has caused you to shift your attitudes in the courtroom. Above all else, you prosecute in hopes of learning the truth.

You do not have any actions, but you may judge your peers in the court of law (which means you can vote).

You win when all non-town players have been eliminated from the game and there is at least one town player still alive.

Welcome RobotNinjaHornets!

You are Phoenix Wright, Ace Attorney

Your role is the Town Jack-of-All-Trades

A renowned defense attorney, you are known for turning around any hopeless situation with your ability to spot contradictions. It doesn’t come easy though, you are also known to do most of the investigating to find the truth and you’ve even spent some time as an
un
skilled piano player

During the night phase, you may PM me one of three commands which will grant you one of three passive abilities. These choices will refresh after you have used them all. (In other words, if you use an ability on Night 1, it will be unavailable to use again until after you have used both of your other commands).

Your three choices:

GATHER EVIDENCE: <playername> - When you leave on an investigation, you will become a watcher which means you will be able to see all players that visit the player you target.

OBJECTION - Turnabout is fair play (couldn&#8217;t resist!). While pointing out contradictions, you will become a commuter which means that all actions will have no effect on you during that particular night phase.

PIANO MAN - While moonlighting at the Borscht Bowl Club, you will become a reflexive gossip which means that, during this particular night phase, all players that perform an action on you will join a gossip chat with you. Please note that I will send out the invites to this gossip chat at the beginning of the next day phase. This chat will only be open at night time and will remain until the end of the game. Multiple uses of the PIANO MAN ability will result in multiple but separate gossip chats.

You win when all non-town players have been eliminated from the game and there is at least one town player still alive.

As always, votes will be tracked in the spreadsheet linked in post 3 of this thread. A new tab will be added near the bottom marked Day 2.

18 players remain so majority today is 10 votes.

I'm going to encourage other discussion today, but I still feel that Ezekiel is scum, and unless something very interesting comes up my vote be on him by the end of the day.

I'd actually like to discuss the night deaths.

Two of them. Why? Neutral killer + scum? That's my current hypothesis.

But more specifically why BarryLocke and why RNH?

On that note, I think lynching Cornburrito would provide the best information, if nothing else pops up today.

Sidenote: Barry may have wanted to look more at Stanley at the end of last day phase.

"Shit"

and other sorts of comments are unhelpful. Yes, two townies died. Shocking I know. Lets actually discuss stuff so we can get scum.

"Shit" and other sorts of comments are imo a cheap way for scum to try and get town points. Yeah it is really hard to pretend to be sad at town deaths. Not that you guys who posted that are scum, but it isn't helpful if you are town.

Barry Locke seems more likely to be the scum target to me. Rnh was a pretty middle of the road player, which is more likely a neutral killer target.

Most of the discussion yesterday was carried by people who were being held on suspicion. A good scum move is to leave people who are likely to to lynch themselves alone and kill whoever leads conversation. If neither is viable, then go for people who didn't do much?

I'm going to play a game.

If I were scum, I'd have targeted:

1. Squidyj

2. QuantumBro's replacement

3. Crimsonfist

4. Roy


Squidy/Crimson/Roy were the three most active yesterday. If I'm scum I'm going after the most active.

QB's replacement being killed would have provided town little to no info.

And yet RNH and Barry were killed. Barry I dont think provided much info as a flip. RNH is the more interesting death. I encourage people to dig up posts and maybe work out who killed him and why.

I feel like I'm being egotistical, but RNH was one of the people who voted for me yesterday. My aggressiveness yesterday sets me up as a potential lynch. Wouldn't be shocked if his death was partially to get some evidence on me.

But yeah he was fairly middle of the road.

Ppl who were on the chopping block ystrday Me/Kalor/QB. Kalor got lynched and chance they didnt want to both with QB's replacement.

Leaders ysterday were Squidy and CB(With their accusations at me), maybe Roy/Crimson?

I don't know if it's particularly relevant as of these events, but I was going to ask Xam why he undid his vote at the last minutes and was too late to do so.

I gotta reread and see who interacted with BarryLocke and RNH.

I would not have made a good target. At least not for N1. I'm a very decent lynch candidate due to my aggressiveness. Scum I think would keep me alive and try their luck on this day. Especially if you do happen to be town, since they could then rely on you to push for me and then set up your lynch. And especially since RNH died and he had voted for me. You and I are actually awful kill targets for N1.

So A lot of us agree that those who died were weird targets and that CB,CF and Squidy would have been better targets, yet they're still here....

Clearly, CB, CF and Squidy are scum!

I am 60% not serious with this

I agree, If I was scum, I would have targeted squidyj, Crimson or me,especially with our pr probably on scrafty, and us having a lot of inactives.

Talking about inactives, the goddamn and redfalco had policy lynch levels of low activity yesterday, both only barely having one relevant post the whole day. They both need to seriously step it up.

Yes, trying to get people to discuss actual things that matter does contribute more to meaningful conversation.

Who do I think is scum?

Well, I did think QBro could be a scum but now we don't really no because he got a replacement. I do feel it is interesting that the mafia didn't kill his replacement, but maybe someone protected him. I do think in all honesty you could possibly be a Mafia member. I don't really care for your super upfront attitude about everything trying to be so much of a town. If you are a town, then good, but the aggressive style of play is something I feel suits a Scum looking to be in good standing with town.

This is quite the unexpected turnabout. Are we to believe that there are two killers present, or that someone simply took the opportunity to axe both Mr. Wright and Mr. Edgeworth last night?

In any case, I have someone in mind whom I want to press, but I'm unsure of whether doing so would be a good idea. Should I wait til most others have spoken before casting my vote as I did yesterday or simply engage immediately?

I feel like I say this all the time, but xam JUMPED on the kalor lynch train almost immediately, then when it was mentioned that there might be a bandwagon he unvoted kalor, then jumped back on not long after. and then unvoted again.
This leads me to believe he's just xam being xam and also town.

Bowlie, Redfalco, and Hipster Cthulhu. I would like to hear some reads from all of you, we've had a day phase, we've had 2 kills, there should be enough to generate some opinions. I'd like to hear them.

I feel the same way, and I've been back and forward about whether to call it out.

That thing that also happened in Final Fantasy?

I think this is in good flavor to all of the town too see what you really are, and I believe it would bring us the most information as of right now. I feel like you should've been scums top target, and I wonder why you aren't dead.

Two people is enough imo to not kill someone as scum. Two people that could have swayed public opinion against me. There's enough I did yesterday to build a case on me, and you and RNH could have led it.

I can't stress enough that I think I would have been one of the WORST n1 kill targets. Why would scum waste a kill on someone who had people gunning for him already?

Starsketch, I think you were just parroting what Ezekiel said as a low effort way of seeming active.

Uuuh. There were multiple people that found corn suspicious. Me and Crimson on the other hand were seen as town by a lot of people. Corn was not the best scum target by a long shot.

Explain more in detail why I would have been top of the scum target list.

I'm not seeing it. I think I'd be at the bottom of their list.

And you asked me who I think is scum? lol.

Right now? You (partially), Starsketch (nearing certainty, but he could unfortunately be town), Ezekiel.

Scum targets I was expecting would have been Myself, Roy, or Scrafty if they had a strongman,

Or possibly that person I alluded to in my reply to Scrafty. but I'm not really sure if it's a good idea to press that topic yet.

Idk if I'd have gone after Scrafty. Unless Scrafty had been more aggressive D1.

Plus, there's the whole WIFOM thing of Scrafty being the most likely to receive protections on N1.

Anyway I am going to be going out to dinner soon. And drinking/games after that. I'll post more maybe when I get home, and definitely more tomorrow. Going to get some fucking delicious hamburgers tonight.

Yes, because I've been flagged as scum every single game for not being active, even though I've literally only been scum ONCE. The one time I try to be active, this happens.

Also thanks for ignoring the spoiler.
