I count 7-6 but good job anyway.
I swear if you cause a tie by voting one minute before the deadline...
YNNNY, an update please.
A lovely day, short but sweet. Maybe these Princesses have become too arrogant, too full of themselves, thinking themselves invincible and all-correct-all-the-time. What a bunch of Royal Highnesses, these are!
A cat watches, a little subdued, and is about to yawn when the clock chimes loudly. DING. DONG. DING. DING-DONG.
"Oh. My. Would you look at the time! It is our favourite time of the day, my Princesses!"
They all look round, smiling at each other and rise elegantly, pulling their dresses carefully as they stand up. Their expressions are bright and cordial, which is a cause of concern for the hungry cat. Today feels ...off.
Today is different, today .... they reached a tie.
The Princesses all sit primly in front of the cat and coyly says, "We don't think there's an enemy between us! After all, we've killed three baddies in a row! We feel quite horrible about it, too."
"Not I." chimes one of them, quietly.
But the numbers do not lie. There has been no decision. All will live through to the night.
A cat groans and dies inside.
Dawn rises. Cold and terrible, it rises.
By force of habit now, all the Princesses have become indolent and self-assured of another blissful night as they come down from their chambers. Surely, Evil is cowering terribly in some dark corners, too afraid to even make any bold moves. Surely, the forces of Good have taught them that pacifism is truly the nobler path! Surely!
They sit around the Palace's grand guest hall, which is directly opened towards one of the larger flower gardens and smile softly at each other. A purple cat slinks into the room on grumpy moods, muttering to itself about nutritions and gross animal neglects. It finds a small corner from which it starts its morning count... one, two, three...
"Wait a minute!" A cat declares, a little excited. "One of you didn't make it through the night!"
A loud gasp travels across the hall! The Princesses look round at themselves and do find their numbers lessened. Quickly, they rouse themselves to search for their missing sister! They look here and there, inspecting every nook and cranny of the Palace, every rooms and every halls! But no mater where they search, they are unable to locate Unmasked Ferret...
Finally, one of them sighs and says, "Well, we haven't searched the attic..."
With dread blossoming in their bellies, the Princesses make their way towards the strange and lonesome place, high up above the highest tower in the Palace. As they come around the foot of the spiraling staircase, the sight of broken glass slippers sends chills into their souls.
A Princess faints.
Another Princess follows the trace further to find the mangled body of Unmasked Ferret lying near her very expensive and very unsafe glass slippers. All twisted up, bones splintered and limbs broken beyond help, she must have been pushed down the stairs to her unsightly demise.
A quiet voice pipes up from somewhere in the back, "Well, ... glass slippers, you know... I'm not victim blaming but..." which garners well-deserved judgements and pronounced frowns from the others.
A cat slinks quietly, cackling.
"Finally!"
The rest of the Princesses pulls a coordinated expression of disgust before turning around to return to the Palace, leaving the revolting cat with its meal.
18 Princesses are present on this sixth day.
Hullo!
Very lovely pairs of glass slippers there, I say.
Welcome back to the Magical Kingdom, Princess! You have been missed! In your absence, a few things had gone a little awry. Yes, a little. But, there is still time to un-awrify things. A little time.
You are Cinderella, the Original Rags-to-Riches Princess. Long have you toiled under the heels of your step-family and in those years, you have acquired the friendship and services of various household verm-… uh, animal friends. Every Night phase, you are able to ask Jaq and Gus, two of your most industrious allies, to go and watch a player, with the command: “Jaq and Gus! Go and watch: <Target Name>”. You will be notified of any other player(s) who have performed any actions on your chosen target.
You are aligned with Good.
Every Day phase, you are able to Vote to nominate someone’s head to be chopped off! Hooray! Very Royalty!
You win when all aligned with Evil have been vanquished.
Any questions? Ask a weird cat, who may answer, often even during tea time, which is served in the afternoon every day at the palace’s garden. No pants required.

Good luck, Princess!

DAY 5 FINAL TALLY:
No Active Vote for Day 5 a.k.a those that didn't break the tie and starve a cat:
AbsolutBro
Barrylocke
Freakinchair
gryvan (has previously voted)
Septimus Prime
Unmasked Ferret (late by 1 minuta :<)
2. I sleepwalked visiting Mazre
Weird, I received no indication of any sort of anything at all. (If it is not obvious by now, I have no night ability. Ole Wendy is an ordinary town.)I'm Aurora, I sent AB N1 to sleep
Sorry, I am not clear on why Zatoth's apparent guilt clears Ultron.Well, apparently wasn't exactly the best decision, given we have a corpse today, but at least I'm fairly confident Ultron is Town or Neutral now.
Why? Because I sleepwalked tonight and we have no (trustworthy) report of anyone sleepwalking in the nights I blocked Zatoth. So what probably happened is that Zatoth, just for the giggles, decided to make me sleepwalk as some kind of symbolic revenge, assuming it would get blocked anyways.
Yeah... I owe all princesses and scum an apology. I have a sick ewe, and she is the very first ewe on our farm and while I should not play favorites it is hard not to. I have been worrying myself out of my mind, getting up every few hours to make sure she was still alive. She is fine now, the antiobiotics seem to have done their job. But I still rush down to the barn first thing when I get home. Anyway, between that and DST fucking my sleep even worse, I just was not even thinking about the game.Also, what the fuck, people?
Hi. I'm here. I apologize for missing the vote, as I wasn't keeping track of the end of day time.Also, what the fuck, people?

Due to a cat's traveling schedule, Day 6 will be only 2 days, followed by Night 6 of 2 days also. Starting from Day 7, Day phases will be 2 days, and Night phases will be 1 day.
Night 6 descends in:
So, uhm yeah. Yesterday happened. I missed that weemad was on Freakinchair and thought it'd be 7-6 for him after weemad voted. Well, turns out it was 6-6...
So, let's see, what happened tonight?
1. I blocked Ultron (reasoning see below)
2. I sleepwalked visiting Mazre
3. Ferret got killed.
ok, so why did I block Ultron? For starters, I claimed at the end of last day. (That was, in hindsight, a big mistake. I kind of panicked because I saw a momentum against Ferret rising. What I should've done instead is pushing the confrontation towards us lynching Zatoth.) With Scum having this information and me assuming there are at least 2 Scum left, I figured they would have the kill submitted by the other person, so blocking Zatoth would have most likely only blocked the second ability. Then I remembered our mysterious friend and started doubting myself into that they maybe really can charge up some kind of multikill and decided to block Ultron. Well, apparently wasn't exactly the best decision, given we have a corpse today, but at least I'm fairly confident Ultron is Town or Neutral now.
Why? Because I sleepwalked tonight and we have no (trustworthy) report of anyone sleepwalking in the nights I blocked Zatoth. So what probably happened is that Zatoth, just for the giggles, decided to make me sleepwalk as some kind of symbolic revenge, assuming it would get blocked anyways.
vote: Zatoth
Ok can someone clarify what is going on?
Do we have a Zatoth vs. Royal_Flush Thunderdome?
I don't know why I'm having so much trouble following what everyone is saying this game. Everything is written in subtext.
One would think that, if there were a sleepwalker in this game, it would be Aurora, and she would be a princess. Sleepwalkers can't typically choose their targets, either, so Zatoth wouldn't know who he visits per night and would have to unbelievably guess that he attempted to visit Mazre on Night 4, which R_F blocked him. Doesn't seem plausible to me.Ferret watched Mazre Night 4 and no one visited him (confirmed, since Ferret flipped town).
Zatoth claims to have visited Mazre Night 4. This directly contradicts Ferret.
Flush claims to have roleblocked Zatoth Night 4. This would explain why no one visited Mazre.
I think Zatoth is our sleepwalker. Similar to a scum switcher, he could misdirect protective town roles so they can kill. Since Flush claimed roleblocker, Zatoth could misdirect him away (or use the other scum member to kill).
Enker too is highly suspicious. His initial claim was to try to get Exodu5 lynched, as a commuter is nearly impossible for scum to kill. And with a motion detector, alignment cop, tracker, and watcher, that's a lot of investigative roles for someone to have another that doesn't fall into any of those categories. And is it a bit convenient that Zatoth was on Enker's list?
5 powered scum in a game of 24 is pretty strong, though, or even 4 powered and 1 lost partner.
Both yours and Enker's votes are suspicious to me. I hope one of you ends up being scum, so at least my instincts weren't 100% off this game. ^_^
Well it was only a matter of time...Well, I was going to wait for Mazre, but drip drip drop little April shower and we may not make it to 6pm
Observe how I have a better cat than Yeeny could ever hope to be

Its time for an AMA with a genuine Princess =)
I asked ynnny D1 if my target would be notified they were blocked. She said no.Weird, I received no indication of any sort of anything at all. (If it is not obvious by now, I have no night ability. Ole Wendy is an ordinary town.)
I assume there are 2 Scum left. I also assume that Zatoth is the one who causes the sleepwalking since or only two known occurrences of sleepwalking are the nights where I didn't block Zatoth. We know from the revealed PMs that one single Scum member can't both submit the kill and use one of their abilities (unless they're last Scum standing). If my assumptions are true then Ultron can't be Scum because he was blocked by me but someone other than Zatoth carried out the kill.Sorry, I am not clear on why Zatoth's apparent guilt clears Ultron.
Because I don't know how much more evidence you want against Zatoth...Why are we lynching Zatoth when scum tied it with Chair?
Vote: Freakinchair
He didn't even vote yesterday. Not a big loss even if we're wrong.
In what universe am I in any kind of thunderdome? I may be guilty of tunneling but I don't see how it's a me-or-him situation.Ok can someone clarify what is going on?

I don't know why I'm having so much trouble following what everyone is saying this game. Everything is written in subtext.
It didn't occur to me it could have changed my target. It just stated I was involuntarely wandering around, visiting Mazre. It's kind of neutral, cold be either way.Does the sleep walking text that you get suggest that it's changing the target of your night ability? Or is it just adding an extra stop to whatever else you were doing?
Freakinchair had the most votes. Then Zatoth contradicted Ferret. Given our track record with last minute swings (Dusk Soldier, CM) I actually was worrying this could turn against Ferret, especially since most of the time the person that contradicts tells the truth, not the one that is contradicted. As I knew Ferret told the truth (well, concerning Zatoth visiting Mazre at least) I wanted to kill this potential swing before it even started. As I said, it probably was way too hasty.Am I missing something? Didn't you claim when momentum was against Freakinchair? I didn't see much momentum against Ferret.
Well it was only a matter of time...
What do you do, oh tidal one?
I don't believe Enker for a second.
If you really are neutral, you realize that if Mazre did look at you, you probably come out scum, right?Thats where Mazre comes in handy, he being an alignment cop and all.
If you really are neutral, you realize that if Mazre did look at you, you probably come out scum, right?
Not nessisarily, if you can convince us you really are neutral, or if YNNNY is using a different method of giving cops their alignment you could still live.Im hoping not, but thats my inexperience with Mafia at work. So I was dead today when he talks at 6pm is what you are saying.

Fair enoughI asked ynnny D1 if my target would be notified they were blocked. She said no.
I assume there are 2 Scum left. I also assume that Zatoth is the one who causes the sleepwalking since or only two known occurrences of sleepwalking are the nights where I didn't block Zatoth. We know from the revealed PMs that one single Scum member can't both submit the kill and use one of their abilities (unless they're last Scum standing). If my assumptions are true then Ultron can't be Scum because he was blocked by me but someone other than Zatoth carried out the kill.
Fair enough
I'm with you on 2 scum left. Where I get skeptical is the idea of Zatoth as the sleepwalker, since Mazre read him as town. There would be some shenanigans at play:
1. Zatoth is a Godfather AND causes sleepwalking (which explains why Mazre read him as town)
-or-
2. Zatoth is Sleepwalker-maker scum and someone switched him with Town on the night Mazre happened to read him
-or-
3. Zatoth is town and the lack of sleepwalking is a coincidence
now, I don't normally believe in coincidence in these games, but I'm also struggling to believe 1 or 2. 1 requires a godfather with a second non-kill power; not completely impossible true. 2 is also possible, but requires some very lucky timing.
it is also possible that Ultron is the one causing sleep walking, and the nights that we didn't get a sleep walking report he was sending in the kill command. You blocked him last night and no sleep-walk
Busy at work. Good things when I get home this evening. Approx 6pm EDT
