Elements Mafia 62 - by Solaris

[Kuroaitou]

PART 2:

If you guys didn't notice it yet, Kuro is Nojid, or is masons with Nojid. This could be seen in the anonymous post saying Kuro is a dumbass, which is highly unlikely for someone to say except for Kuro himself. I have been checking whether he is genuinely Artemis or fake-claiming, which is why I threw the rock at him. This is also why I keep on asking whether we should place rock throws in anon codes instead, because clearly if we always claim our rock throws, it would be too easy to track who Artemis is. I wanted to help, but I thought that the crafted rock plan was simply stupid.

It would be outrageous for him to be mafia fake-claiming to be Artemis at this point, because that is basically just begging for an investigation.

Someone with the highest sense of ACTUAL codebreaking finally freaking prevails. \/

In order, let me break down each of the codes:

"Artemis:
Everyone on the mafia team is gunning for you, and that's to be expected. So if you decide to be aggressive, make it count. Please be careful otherwise, and if anything, know that I am going to be targeted tonight, and hopefully for good reason."

The capitals letters spell out 'Espi', short for Espithel, my first target. Why I chose Espithel instead of Linkcat was due to the assumption that, more likely than not, Linkcat or Demagog would die. Clearly I'm wrong in that aspect...
"Artemis:
Voting with me is probably your better bet, given that you don't know what you're doing. I understand, it's hard to play this game with no one to trust. Let me help you; the next time you feel like targeting a player of high priority, please don't - just don't. Learn from this round, and maybe you can survive another cycle, otherwise, you'll be sniped. Anyway, thanks for reading this."

Again, the letters spell out 'VILLA', short for Villager. This was basically me confirming to you guys that Artemis knows that Espithel is a town, so don't try to lynch him or else my investigation is for naught.
"Gonna switch it up here because kuro has to go blabbing his mouth and revealing all of my codes; thanks a ton dumbass.
A.L.L.I.U.M."

Again, ALLIUM is a genus of onions. I was throwing my investigation here, because again, I thought that Linkcat or Demagog would get nightkilled, because Night 0 no night kill could occur.

Ya'll didn't quote my posts eh? Well here you go.
Q = 17th letter on the alphabet
U = 21st letter on the alphabet
"0" = O, for l33t 5p3@|< 3|2Z
T = 20th letter on the alphabet
E = 5th letter on the alphabet
The yellow text was transparent if you highlighted the area.

Combining the letter, 'T', with the image hidden in the description box, spells out 'TOWN', referring to CleanOnion. Yogurt isn't Artemis, I am, so I obviously can't trust them. WIFOM however, if dawn to dusk is a mafia member who has managed to put enough doubt to remove him from the innocence pool.
"[desc=last letters][/desc]I've been blessed, and so shall my first.
Oh!
Have you figured out my LAST puzzle?
If so, then let this statement complete the circle of my very first tell.
It'll take more than highlighting it all or the cinco's/roku's like last time.Subtract an 'O'.
Good game.

Spoiler for REMEMBER.:

Finally, if you quote this one, I give you the hint this time around. "thel" spells out the last few letters of 'Espithel', coupled with the Naruto image of rock skipping, implies me throwing a rock to a confirmed target. cincos = 5, rokus = 6, the answer to the last puzzle.

Good game - subtract an o = God game; rearranged, demagoG, the target of tonight.



So yes, I AM NOJID, which, if you spell backwards, is 'DIJON', a type of mustard that has a very distinct color as a condiment...

[CleanOnion]

Uh... I guess Kuro is confirmed. The codes could all be a really elaborate bread but I doubt a poser would go to that much effort.

[Linkcat]

So Espithel and Onion are both town? Then who the **** is Hidden? I guess it's Ryli, and I wanted to lynch her today anyway.

[Kuroaitou]

Hidden's SUPER HIDDEN code: itsallotreallyworthit - it's all ot really worth it?

OT has to stand for something?

Uh... I guess Kuro is confirmed. The codes could all be a really elaborate bread but I doubt a poser would go to that much effort.

Yes. :X

[Demagog]

Ok so Kuro, if you need to lynch me in order to learn how I play, go ahead. I've said it sooo many times, but I guess you won't believe me until you see that you've been duped and I'm actually a civ.

IF SOMEONE MAKES A HARD CLAIM, SUPPORTING THAT CLAIM IS THE BEST WAY TO GAIN INFORMATION.

Your accusations on Link were hard claims. You didn't say you were suspicious of Link, you said he was mafia. If you were just suspicious, I probably wouldn't vote on him unless I felt the same way. Since you said he was mafia, of course I would support it. Either he is mafia or you are or we discover that mafia is using their "foil artemis" ability on civilians. Most games only the first two can happen; it's not too often that abilities can cancel out Artemis's ability.

Anyway, if you do end up lynching me, I don't think you guys should lynch Kuro right away. Waiting ~4 rounds should be fine, I think. If he's not nightkilled by then, he's probably mafia.

Kuro, why not wait until the phase is over and just use the message board to accuse me so you can protect your identity? You weren't in any danger of dying to a lynch this phase.

[Linkcat]

Now I'm really excited for parts 3 and 4 since it looks to me like he covered everything.

[Sera]

Uh... I guess Kuro is confirmed. The codes could all be a really elaborate bread but I doubt a poser would go to that much effort.

Spoiler for Hidden:

[Demagog]

Now that I read Kuro's last post, I think it's highly unlikely that Kuro is mafia, so I doubt the situation where he'll live more than 2 more rounds will occur.

Solaris, what is the message you give Artemis when Artemis and Coeus target the same person?

[Kuroaitou]

[19:07:23] ‹Kuroaitou› Solaris
[19:07:33] ‹Kuroaitou› Can Hades use the ITEMS of dead players?
[19:07:35] ‹Kuroaitou› oh god damnit
[19:08:29] ‹Mr_Muffin› hello
[19:09:01] ‹Solaris› ‹@Kuroaitou› no
[19:09:15] ‹Kuroaitou› ‹@Solaris› oh
[19:09:37] ‹Kuroaitou› ‹@Solaris› Can Cronus see items?
[19:11:52] ‹Solaris› ‹@Kuroaitou› no
[19:12:02] ‹Mr_Muffin› I really need to suppress my hello reflex until after I check if the person has left
[19:12:15] ‹Kuroaitou› ‹@Solaris› oh

Making this public from chat moments ago.

[Solaris]

Now that I read Kuro's last post, I think it's highly unlikely that Kuro is mafia, so I doubt the situation where he'll live more than 2 more rounds will occur.

Solaris, what is the message you give Artemis when Artemis and Coeus target the same person?

The same message I give when blocked by Theia or Pocket Sand.

[Demagog]

Ok, in that case, it is equally, if not more, possible that Kuro was targeted by one of the actions that block a role from happening. He'd have no way of knowing the difference.

Your claim on me is becoming less credible, Kuro. Are you still confident that I'm mafia?

[Linkcat]

For him to be roleblocked, that would mean that Theia didn't use her ability the first two Nights, which doesn't make any sense. I also used one of our two Pocket Sands on rob Night 0. It's safe to assume he was blocked by Coeus.

It should also be noted that both Brick & Mortars are gone, as well as an Olive Branch. This only leaves one Olive Branch and one Pocket Sand unaccounted for. The other Branch should be used on Kuro tonight so we can follow it up with Athena on the next Night.
