Homestuck Mafia Thread - Page 16

It's come to my attention that you chucklefucks have been entirely screwing this up thus far, what with the killing of no less than two townsfolk. Thus it falls to me to once again step in and solve everything for everyone.

Well who do you think we should lynch then?

Ok, so on that mafia wiki it says that the 'strong' modifier usually means that the role cannot be blocked/prevented/whatever...but what the heck does it mean for an otherwise vanilla townie to have it?

Professor Smarmiarty · 08-01-2011, 10:26 AM

The night description lists both enemies and horrorterrors- is there two sorts of scum or is that just our feeble minds going crazy under the strain?

Somebody who knows more about homestuck would be best suited to speculate.
Usually if you have 2 groups its mafia and masons. Our group is quite small though, I think there would not be masons probably.

Enemies I guess is a mafia type role- they just like us but they evil.
Horrorterror is something different. Maybe some kind of SK? But it says there are multiple of them.

Also we had one kill night 1 and no kills night 2. I would guess there is some form of bodyguard/doctor who blocked night 2 kill and that there is only one killing role- mafia- with no SK or vigiliante.

The Horroterrors are basically the Great Old Ones. Their morality extends far beyond our understanding or something like that. In Homestuck its left slightly ambiguous as to whether or not they are out to help the protagonists reach a common goal or just using them for a different end.

Sorry Thad!

So, what does no kill mean? You think it was the scum hoping that we kill most of ourselves off, if they give us no readable clues by killing someone?

Aldurin · 08-01-2011, 04:09 PM

No kill probably means that either someone that can prevent deaths was successful, or the mafia might have decided it was a bad idea to kill anyone at the time.

I'm betting on the death prevention since we did see Smarty's lynching get derailed.

Yeah, but what's weird is that we saw his get decidedly derailed, versus this time, we just wake up and find nothing happened.

That's because night actions are not public, so if the mafia were to say "lol lets kill this guy" and the doctormacillit person was like "NOPE" then we wouldn't hear.

I wonder what's up with last night. We've been given no clues to work with here. On the other hand, free lynch today. Let's not waste it.
