Because Battler had a silent refute it seems.
Goddamnit we should have refuted him! 
Damn you Vyse for making perfect sense as to why not refute him aaaaa:(
And thank you Vyse for basically helping us survive this much.
I still don’t get how we all died tho.
@MAFIA_Battler’s ability claim allowed him to “use his innate ability an unlimited amount of times in a single night”. He had two innate abilities, Size Up and Plan B, an elimination ability. He decided to use the elimination ability on you all. Seven times.
Well let me explain the relevant bits about my role then.
My goal was to kill everyone.
I had three innate abilities.
The one I used the first night actually creates a copy of the ability for one-time use in another night.
In the second night, I used an ability that let me target any amount of players. Any witch turns into my ally (their goal changes to me surviving, and they die if I get killed), while normal humans turn into Vengeful humans with me as their target.
I used this to target midsummer and Eternalmagician, who were both witches. Since I got shot that sadly just resulted in everyone dying there.
As for why I assumed it was them, I just started out with extra information about the three modifiers (Vengeful, Skeptic, Confrontational) that were present in the game, so I could relatively safely rule out those that claimed them. For thesorceress I was just kind of willing to buy that there was also something to remove them with in the game.
It could have been possible the witches also knew of them and used them to fake claims, but the game was progressing too rapidly for me to not take my chances there. (this technically also only left Battler as the only plausible third option, thinking about it, but his acting was convincing enough for me to not risk it there.)
O rite.
Welp.
If you had actually targeted Battler too, the game would’ve ended in an even sillier way.
To think that had you targeted Battler too it would be an insta win for humans. That would be fricking fun.
Right. The humans would have given a witch a gun and won the game that way. ^^
Damn you stealing my line
The teams that were supposed to kill off the humans would’ve neatly killed each other unintentionally in a single night.
…I can only imagine how confused the humans would’ve been.
This was my spreadsheet for this game:
I’ll present the results and progression of this game in a nicer way later.
I mean, I did say @MAFIA_Battler should get play of the game. So someone photoshop him into one of those Overwatch result screens, please.
Now that I think about it, Magic of Belief wasn’t used even once during this game. Not exactly how I expected this game to turn out.
Well, I guess us humans really can be summed up with this:
Overall, I think the human side would’ve done much better if they were less scared of the Magic of Belief.
If even one human gets an overpowered superability through, a witch has to spend their Magic of Belief blocking it, since killing one person is probably not going to be more of an advantage. This means that if three people are allowed to make blue claims that can’t be used for instant witch victory (say, multitarget elimination abilities), there has to be two witches among those three for the witches to make any progress they couldn’t already make with their innate abilities. And even then, the progress they could achieve is just a single kill. Whereas the human team can do pretty outlandish stuff with their blues.
The very first thing I posted in this thread after the game began was an attempt to steer people away from trying to think of overpowered blues and instead trying to play this like a normal mafia game. I doubt I had that much of an effect, but thankfully the human side started getting a bit bolder with their blue declarations only a moment before they all were wiped out in an instant.
This is the best thing ever.
Oh yeah, since I learned that pdfs cannot be linked here, this time I’ll just copy my notes the old fashioned way.
VyseGolbez (human aligned, have to kill Wonderlander, innate Cop, but with varying Sanity)
had the locked power to block a certain ability on day 1.
had the locked power to redirect a kill towards me to the killer if I guess the killer correctly on day 2.
IDEA: claim an ability that targets exactly two players and links them together for the rest of the game, meaning when one dies, the other dies as well. Furthermore, link their targets to make it less negative utility
Blackrune (died, other aligned)
Antra
midsummer (died, witch aligned)
thesorceress (investigate says human)
EternalMagician (died, witch aligned)
Doldod (died, human aligned)
Wonderlander (human)
Rabla (maybe human)
Real (died, human aligned)
Kluck (human)
Battler (probably human)
Wow, I was considering Battler being a witch as a spectator. Since it would be the worst scenario, but I was never really sure.
We were “recruited” by Blackrune who were the Usurper and turned us into Ambivalent Witches. According to the PM this changed our goal to protect Blackrune (if he died then we would as well) as well as kill anyone who wasn’t an Ambivalent Witch. It also meant that we couldn’t converse with our fellow non-ambivalent witches until they were either dead or had been turned to our side.
But we had the bad luck of killing Blackrune that very night, killing us in the process.
