[Forum Game] [Mafia] Stable Conundrum

[SourCherry]

"Sophos, I'll have you know I am not that kind of a mare! But enough about your crude sense of humor. We need to determine who is our... attacker." SourCherry huffs and flicks her tail. "It's clear as day that whoever the pony is that has thinning our numbers as his or her priority, it is not me."

[Someonewithapen]

"Well. It's not the most conventional way of proving one's innocence, but given the suddenness of the tribulations at hoof, I'll accept it."

"The question remains though: Did they want to kill especially you, or were you just in the wrong place at the wrong time?" The zebra sits with crossed legs one a medium sized rock close to the fire.

[sophos]

"Whoa, didn't see ya there." *sigh* "Anyway, I'm not ready to take any guesses."

[TyrannisUmbra]

"We have to be very careful. For now, at least, there's only one pony here who can't be considered suspect. For obvious reasons."

[SilverlightPony]

Well, that's one way to start things off. o_0

BTW, guys, the roleplaying is amusing at first, but after a while, it gets old. Forgive me if I refrain from the get-go.

"We have to be very careful. For now, at least, there's only one pony here who can't be considered suspect. For obvious reasons."

Just because she was the (intended) victim this time doesn't mean she's innocent overall. Some games have multiple scum factions, or a "serial killer" role, separate from the Scum team, who's only out to kill everyone else and be the last person standing.

It is a mark in her favor, but it's not solid proof of being a townie.

Also, be advised, I'm heading out to BronyCon in the morning, my activity here may be sporadic through the weekend.

(BronyCon? Awesome, have fun!)

Not cool Silverlight. She was just targeted by an assassin and barely lived to tell the tale, and you are saying she might have done it? Really? She tried killing herself? If you didn't notice, she was clearly being shot at this night, not out there chasing down someone else at the meanwhile or doing suspicious things on her own.

[Schorcht]

"You know, for as much flack as I may get for it there is some truth behind what Silverlight's logic. It shares resemblance to my own train of thought. It is tragic that her life was sought to be ended, but also well off that it was not. However, the extraordinary chance that she was targeted AND saved so early on is quite a way to win over the hearts and minds of everyone else..." Schorcht raises a hoof to his chin in thought and paces about. "...that being said... running the chance of shooting yourself or an accomplice in hopes to be saved JUST to earn everyone favor this early is... unlikely, especially given the chance someone could not have been near to save them... and I would love to take initiate and find the person as soon as possible, but unfortunately not everypony has spoken yet"

[sophos]

"Whoa now, even if we did find the mysterious life-saver; it woundn't determine one way or another that they or SourCherry were in cahoots with the attacker. But I can determine, that the idea of an Earth Pony shooting themselves in the side is a bit ludicrous withoust some sort of rig. And second, I would advise the mystery hero to stay anonymous; they could put themselves in danger otherwise."

[TyrannisUmbra]

I agree with sophos. At least for now, by revealing themselves, the mystery hero will only make themselves a target.
