A "role investigation PR" typically isn't town aligned. Just saying.
It's normally a mafia aligned role named "Stalker". Which makes perfect sense in a game stacked with townie Power Roles so far. On the other hand there were no powerful Mafia PR flips up to now so it's about time we get to see some more serious stuff in a 18 player game. Probably a 4-man scum team or some ridiculous indie side but you seriously can't trust X1. Probably some gambit because I had him on my scum list.
You essentially claimed to be the mafia stalker if you truly "know" I'm an arsonist. If not you're lying.
Unvote Vote X1
Cool.
If you're town, vote yourself please to speed this up.
If he is a stalker, cop will find out tomorrow because the cop is going to figure out X1's alignment. Won't you, cop? Hell, we'll find it out anyways because there isn't a chance in hell mafia would let him live, now would they?
Btw, cop? If Zen isn't dead tomorrow, claim. Zen will then protect you and we can use your ability as we please. If Zen IS dead tomorrow, stay silent until you get a mafia member and then go ahead and claim immediately.
Regardless, an arsonist could easily be an independent faction here. Considering we had two deaths last night, one mafia and one town, I'm going to go ahead and assume that we have a mafia that can NKill and a town Vig. It would be downright
insane for mafia to be able to NKill AND have an arsonist. They could prime all sorts of people while NKilling away and then BOOM. Town would be none the wiser and lose 3 or 4 players. That's a bit odd for balance, now isn't it?
It doesn't really matter anyway if X1-12 is mafia. Mafia is less dangerous than an arsonist. I'd work with mafia to kill that powerful of an indie.
Also, I think I'm cleared unless you think there's a mafia firefighter. That would be ridiculous.
I do find it kind of hilarious that X1 gets ANOTHER Light of Judgement ability right after Villains, but hey, whaddaya gonna do. He DID manage to know my role, and apparently didn't pick up my shaq crumb. Hopefully I did this in this game and not another. o_o
So, to-do list for town:
Zen, protect Seph
Seph, watch Tandora
Tandora, OPENLY CHOOSE THE PERSON YOU ARE GOING TO MASON (hint: not me, as I'm soft cleared)
Cop, investigate X1 unless Tandora is checking X1.
Overswarm, your ability is now useless, you just have to guess who Gheb could have primed (unless you already did it!).
Vig, kill someone. Someone we know nothing about. Like Macman.
Lynch Gheb
Buy bread and milk
So now that we've gotten that done and over with, again:
Anyone that doesn't follow the plan gets lynched. NO EXCEPTIONS. I don't care if you're Tandora and are supposedly getting us masonries. If you say "i'm gonna mason praxis" then change your mind in the Night and mason Macman, you die immediately. Ca piche?
This leaves mafia to kill a stranger OR to go and kill Zen the doctor, which can't be helped, or X1-12, which saves us a cop claim (since the cop will investigate X1-12 tomorrow and claim if he's scum). If Mafia doesn't kill him and X1 is town, Cop won't claim right away and we get to use X1-12's ability!
So waht we need to learn toDay:
-Who is X1-12 going to use the informational ability on
-Who is Tandora going to use the masonry ability on
THEN we can lynch Gheb.
If Gheb doesn't flip arsonist, easy X1-12 lynch.
Ah, the benefits of knowledge.
@Mod, do we not see what J will be since the Janitor is now dead?
Oh, X1? If you somehow investigate the cop tomorrow and don't want to out him (if Zen is dead), I'm sure you'll find a villainous way of overcoming that restriction.

P-P-P-POWER PLAY.
Macman, Nicholas, Praxis, and SwordsRBroken are all up, everyone else can currently be ignored. It's pretty easy to figure out who of the "town" that are outed will be mafia after these guys are done. :B
X1-12 will be investigated. Nooooo brainer.
I PROPOSE:
Tandora sends herself to mason Praxis. I originally considered her sending mentosman, but it's better if Tandora goes. This will result in knowing FOR SURE if Mafia was caught, since if Tandora dies and Seph says "no one watched her" we know Praxis is scum and lynch him immediately. If we send mentos, Seph woudl have to watch Mentos, leaving Tandora open. We COULD watch one and protect the other with Zen's ability, but this would leave Sephiroth open and his ability will be incredibly important in the late game.
So Tandora masons Praxis.
Macman gets modkilled via inactivity if he isn't vigged tonight.
Nicholas and SwordsRBroken can claim tomorrow if we don't discover anything new, then we can lynch one of them.
WITH THE CURRENT SETUP OF PLAYERS REMAINING:
Mafia
cannot kill those that are able to confirm or deny alignment and ability all in one fell swoop. We get a whopping THREE DAYS of gameplay before they're able to kill our power abilities via NKill. In this time we will have accumulated a wealth of information, and the game will probably be over.
PLEASE NOTE that the "blue" in that doesn't mean confirmed town, only "probably" town. Tandora could easily be mafia that is able to create masonries. Seph could easily be a mafia watcher or tracker or whatever. This is
possible/i]. However, as long as people do exactly as we tell them to, we cannot be tricked. We will know when the house of cards starts to fall, and if they knock the tower down before we're ready we'll know it and can lynch them.
So, I reiterate:
If you go against the plan, you die. Going with the plan is how town uses your ability in its best interest. DO NOT attempt to be clever. This is no longer a game of hunches and risk taking. This is a cold, calculated game in which we slowly churn forward towards inevitable victory. Do not deviate from the plan. When we stick to one, we stick to one, whether you like it or not. Doing otherwise will give mafia an out.
TO THOSE WHO ARE SKIMMING:
FOLLOW THE PLAN.
