Also guys looking back at the events of Day 1 it seems odd that ClansAreForGays and HailFire would be the first targets. Why is that? I'm looking back at their posts, specifically after the day one post and this is what I'm getting:
On the rural flatlands of a small town, most people have gone to sleep. A gentle rain bathes the houses and businesses, but gradually intensifies. There is no thunder or lightning, but enough rain to keep most folk indoors. Only the moon and a single golden star shine in the overcast night. Overall, a fine cover is provided for murderous mischief.
On the outskirts of town, surrounded by acres of corn fields, a shady transacation is taking place. Four gentlemen, in two pairs meet in a small clearing of the crops. Removing
his obnoxiously reflective sunglasses, a man removes a small and ornate gray box and key from his jacket. He passes it to a man with antlers in the other pair. Unlocking the box, the man with antlers peers inside, and smiles. "Good, excellent. You kept your end of the bargain," he says, locking the box shut and passing it to his friend. Reaching inside his coat, he deposits the key and takes out a money clip. "one, two, three..." he counts out stacks of $100 bills into his seller's hands until he reaches the $50,000.
"Good doing business with you," says the man in a thick German accent as he stuffs the cash into his vest. As he adjusts his tie, seven clicks of guns are heard from around the entire space of the transaction. Several forms emerge from the shadows and gesture towards the box and the money, "We'll be taking those". "Mafia, I should known" remarked the man with the antlers. The mafia made a simply but cryptic reply:
"Yes, I have moved." Various words were exchanged in argument as everyone spoke at once. Little sense was made for those ten seconds, when the mafia opened fire. Bullets, similar to the rain pounding the ground, went into the two pairs of men, who die before even falling to the floor. As the mafia loot the corpses for the money and the box, lights flash on in the distant farmhouse. The mafia hurries up before they can be caught, and neglect to search for the key to the box.
Abandoning the corpses among the crops, the mafia makes a
quick and artful escape. The owner of the farmhouse discovers the bodies and notices a glint of metal from one of the fallen corpses. Taking
the key and placing it in his pocket, he returns home to notify the police. The body of
Mini Moose 2707 and the other men are promptly buried the next morning. The burial rites are not quiet among the restless town craving revenge. Before the shovels even bury the final corpse, the town begins expedient erection of a guillotine. Horns blare to gather the town into the town hall, all of the townspeople gather for their first lynching.

Potential clues in bold.
And your interpretations are invisible?
And that hailfire thing sounds... sound.
But I think you guys are missing the real question behind the obnoxiously reflective sunglasses. What is shinny so brightly in a THUNDERSTORM that would cause this?
As he adjusts his tie, seven clicks of guns are heard from around the entire space of the transaction. Several forms emerge from the shadows and gesture towards the box and the money, "We'll be taking those".
Something that stood out as a bit odd to me: Seven guns, but not neccessarily seven people?
Are you implying that someone's avatar is a Dual-Wielder?
Potentially.
And freaky coincidence: Doodle77, 27th on the signup list, 4+3 (the digits of his profile ID) = 7, in the 7th round of mafia with 7 mafia members and 7 shapeshifters.
That's too many fucking sevens.
"most people have gone to sleep"
but it is nght time so it defintly has to have somone shiny involved.
Precisely. Additionally, it's in the middle of a field away from the town (where most lights would be), the lights in the farmhouse are off (as they turn on during/after the hit), and the moon and a single star don't give off a hell of a lot of light, especially with the bad weather (as the rain intensified over time).
1 possible clue against maybe 3 or 4 good ones against you Doodle. Bold. Your avatar has an obnoxious Pokémon in it, beat that.
Just because some sunglasses were described as obnoxiously reflective, and then someone suggested that maybe it is not to do with sunglasses does not make every little obnoxious thing an instant clue. How is a little pokemon obnoxious? The things like NerdyTerdy's avatar that blink and flash all over are obnoxious and shiny.
And he's #7 on the signup list.
Maybe they were onto something and the mafia shut them up quickly and so far it's worked because we haven't given them a second thought since then?
Possibly Doodle hit HailFire?
FlyingHat's response to Dark_Marine's post seems quite a bit overreactive, maybe mafia-like?

More clues bolded invoking mafia is wearing some sort of guise or hat.You be accusing me? >:/
And if what HailFire is saying here is true.. which we KNOW is.. Then that means that Doodle is using a clue from non-mafia orientated clues. Which means my clue of obnoxiousness is just as valid.
Edit:
MIGHT I ADD. Doodle Farty and EzDay have become increasingly AGGRESIVE. I'd like to call doodles bluff. What say you guys?
There are two possibilities there:
1: They are, in fact, Mafia, and are rallying to the aid of their ally (Not very subtle, guys).
2 (more likely): They may or may not be Mafia, but are doubtful of the integrity of the interpretations thus provided; ergo, they're trying to avoid the eventuality of lynching an innocent.
However, until more conclusive evidence is provided (or was provided while I was typing this up), I'm voting for
Doodle77 for the lynching.Damn maybe HailFire was on to something? Farty already proven to be mafia.
Of course to be fair there's also this:
Dammit, I forgot about the NudeRaider clues.
Okay, quick summary of clues thus far:
Doodle77:
- Doodle - 'quick, artful' relation
- obnoxious(?) avatar
- Sevens all over the fucking place
NudeRaider:
- German
- Avatar contains sunglasses/shinyness
Correct me if I missed anything.
I'll rescend my vote for the time being; in retrospect, the clues against Doodle aren't really
that convincing.
We may, however, want to go for a double-lynch.
Also in support of my previous interpretation leading to frazz, here's a post where frazz makes a post which has proven to be somewhat off and also in defense of doodle:
This is a doosy, pay attention.
NudeRaider is German, and his avatar has shiny glasses, so thats a pretty strong clue pointing towards him. But note that the german with the sunglasses isn't mafia in the text.
This is the first, and one of the very few, viable clue interpretations of the game (I think).
Please note that only four posts from here Darkling (just beginning his aggressiveness) says:
Quote from Darkling, four posts later
What if obnoxious is maybe an adjective, not just describing the glasses? Doodle77 and Greo each have obnoxious critters for avatars.
A rather junk accusation (why is the goopy pokemon obnoxious anyway?), but the beginning of a bandwagon. DM also dropped a hint at the sevens, but neither of them drew it to Doodle77's name. The connection was made by Hailfire (page 6).
HOWEVER, both Darkling AND Darkmarine immediately agreed, but neither voted.
Inferno was the first to vote (page 7), but Darkling and Darkmarine followed, once again immediately.
From there, I have this theory:
Doodle77 makes good accusation (this would probably mean NudeRaider is a mafia).
Darkling drops a hint on Doodle77 and Greo from obnoxious clue (bad, baseless accusation).
Dark Marine pulls in bringing up "7" and "username," but does not connect with Doodle77 (you'd have to be paying no attention not to notice it, both DL and DM are setting it up here).
More lousy discussion continues, but eventually HailFire points out the connection between Doodle77 and 7 (the two practically spelled it out already).
VERY NEXT TWO POSTS: Darkling and Darkmarine immediately agree, but only subtly, and without voting.
As discussion continues, Inferno casts the first vote.
VERY NEXT POST: Darkmarine votes for Doodle77.
TWO POSTS LATER: Darkling votes for Doodle77.
Seem suspicious? My theory, thus, is that Darkling and Darkmarine, and probably NudeRaider, are mafia. They set up accusations and connections, but remained subtly non-aggressive.
Here's farty in defense of doodle
[*]Sevens all over the fucking place
This is mafia 7. 7s all over is inevitable.
Perhaps MadZombie got made at ClansAreForGays and hit him?
But I think you guys are missing the real question behind the obnoxiously reflective sunglasses. What is shinny so brightly in a THUNDERSTORM that would cause this?
"gentle rain bathes the houses and businesses, but gradually intensifies. There is no thunder or lightning, "
um noI was implying that it had to be something else
you fucking retard.
Good advice from HailFire?
By the way, I'd like to take a moment to remind everyone that, as demonstrated through the history of SEN Mafia, not all clues are context-based.
If Doodle turns out to be Mafia, maybe these people are NOT mafia?
I give up, lynch me today.
Here are the people that immediately bandwagoned me on one or two weak clues:
Hailfire
Darkling
Dark_Marine
lil-inferno
MadZombie
WoAHorde
This weakens the frazz-mafia argument, unless he just says this knowing Hail is going to be hit...
What? Have none of you the decency to respond to this accusation? Or are you just too lazy to respond to a legitimate argument?
This is a doosy, pay attention.
NudeRaider is German, and his avatar has shiny glasses, so thats a pretty strong clue pointing towards him. But note that the german with the sunglasses isn't mafia in the text.

Summary: Darkling and Darkmarine are behaving suspiciously.
I vote DarklingI have to say though, I really don't think hailfire is a mafia (see quote).
Suspicious that Farty agrees with frazz and echo?
at this point all i can say is nerdy needs to be lynched cause his avatar hurts my eyes, and darkling because hes annoying with his constant crap 7.. which is a number, which number has 6 letters, 6+7=13, thirteen is my age, which means im the mafia... OMG GUYS I KNOW WHOOS MAFIA. ITS DOODLE77! Seriously..
Exactly what I was trying to say earlier.
I agree with Echo and Frazz.
Butchering something until there is no context or meaning != clue interpretation.
This is exactly what is being done, and then even trying to interpret clues from what
he himself said (such as the whole "green" thing.) wtfisgoingonsuspicion++;
I vote for Darkling.
It also doesn't help his case that he keeps switching his focus like every five posts.
Echo was quite wrong here:
I base my vote on the raining bullets and other clues that were previously interpretted.
I base my vote on the raining bullets and other clues that were previously interpretted.
...The raining bullets.
Yeah, really strong case against me there.
Hmm... these guys were already shown to be townies:
I change my vote to Doodle. I'm not particularly excited about lynching either of the people up at block. I'd rather lynch Nude.
Then vote for Nude (or Darkling).
Really though, don't be a bandwagoneer.
Edit: Quote edited in to maintain context since I got bumped a page.
Subtle defending of Doodle here?
Then vote for Nude (or Darkling).
Really though, don't be a bandwagoneer.
If I vote for Nude it'll be a wasted vote. I'd rather Doodle die than Darkling. I'm not dumb.Rather kill Doodle? Why's that?And more...
I don't like him as much. Got a problem?Yeah, that's a bad reason. You should vote for Darkling instead.
*draws lightsaber*
Mafia like?
Quick! Somebody shift the tide the other way! No... we need more than a shift. We need....
Frazz did turn the tide, but possibly to what the mafia wanted....
What? Did my speech really caps lock the tide?
I should be an internet motivational speaker or something.
More hailfire stuff to ponder...
I vote Darkling, because we all know he's a Mafian Shapeshifter.
You can be Mafia and a Shapeshifter
at the same time? I'd like some confirmation on this, please.
As for the current voting status: I will officially abstain my vote for the day; while Darkling did turn suspiciously aggressive when the anti-Doodle train got derailed, I don't think that we've got any really damning evidence yet. Further investigation must take place.
On another note, has anybody really considered the box that got jacked off of Moose? They've got the
box, but we've got the
key. Additionally, the contents of the box are both very
secret and very
valuable. What could possibly be worth 50 grand, but still be contained in such a small box?
Random Dapperdan targetting might connect to this interpretation by inferno?
I found a rather suspicious clue (It has been discussed before this post, but I interpretted it more in depth.)
The mafia saying "I have moved in" may be DapperDan, because only a leader would refer to a group as "I", or perhaps, that man is being led by someone from a remote location, and the 7 clicks of guns are from 6 people, 1 of them duel-wielding (This one is a badass Mafia Member). DapperDan is a known Sen Mafia Mayor, who must lead the town to victory.
Let's take the time to reflect on what a dead PROVEN TO BE TOWNIE has said in his defense:
Jesus christ guys. I'm accused of the bandwagon, yet the "bandwagon" just jumped ship and went for me. I was simply trying to make a few interpretations because I was heavily inactive last game and I wanted to change that. The "7's" clue WAS NOT MINE. So even if someone accused me of using it, do remember that I DID NOT COME UP WITH IT. I'm using OTHER CLUES against Doodle77 primarily, NOT the "7's" clue.
Now, onto the light of the bandwagon. Has anyone noticed 9 straight votes went to me? Doesn't THAT look suspicious to me? ESPECIALLY AFTER BEING BASHED FOR CLUE INTERPRETATIONS.
My final thought: The Mafia isn't stupid. They'll use public vote to off a good interpreter, so that they don't have to kill me in the night where it'll seem that whoever I voted for was infact mafia and they we're protecting him / her / them.
Also. Let us not forget that more then 75% of the people voting for me haven't even got a clue interpreation yet. And I've yet to see ANY evidence of clues against me in the post. I do hope that some people voting for me / haven't voted yet will see this and change your mind. I'd rather not fall in vain because I didn't want to keep my mouth shut, and that I actually wanted to PLAY THE DAMNED GAME.
More to come....
None.
