Mafia: Witches' Coven/Confessionals

Below, there's a list of confessionals that were written by the players of ***Mafia: Witches' Coven***.

## Day/Night One

Also having Brainz and Aster both claiming noble is \*AMAZING\*. Not only does it get eyes on them, since I'm a corrupted noble, it allows both of them to continue claiming it because of the tallies. Now, I have a very good suspicion that one of them is maniac or witch, so hopefully they do get targeted, just not yet. Not yet. Other people have to go first. Namely, Noah, then Piper so I can say Piper was a corrupted detective. My one thing is, people do know that I'm a smart fellow. So I need to proceed with extreme caution. If anything... playing dumb could be to my benefit. Not playing dumb like "oh, you said that", playing dumb meaning seemingly making simple moves. >:D

-Have been in touch with everyone, as well as learned a role from everyone.-Have made two clear targets (Hoola/Havoc)-Am in multiple alliances-Two pairs of monarchs 🤩 iconic
THOUGHTS:

Arriz: don't know how I feel about my friendo rn. like he's always kinda chaotic so idk if that's more or less how he's playing. I have my eye on him but like I think there are much bigger targets anyway. No one else has claimed joker either, so I guess he's legit
Aster: holy crap- i don't get aster LMAOOOO he's being weird again- like sussing noah, meuh, and meli so much and i don't get it. i really don't trust him at all rn just seeing how much he'll turn on others
Brainz: I haven't gotten to talk to brainz much yet honestly, but I'd like to again soon. He's another noble claim alongside Aster- so I wouldn't be shocked if one of them is lying since we need at least FIVE fricking players not on the villagers side but like idk it could be brainz but i think it'd be aster first and foremost over him
Queen Dani: I think she's 100% safe at this point. If she's playing me, HUGE kudos on her. There's def a small possibility in my mind that she's lying but i doubt it. i think she's another healer and that's perfect
Eevee: Eevee is interesting fs- like i feel like he could go super UTR as normal since i don't even remember which role he claimed LMAOOO oh yeah judge. i think that's definitely a reasonable claim. there's no doubt in my mind that he's actually the judge- but he could always be corrupted too but you could just be mean to us and have eevee but corrupted LMAO i'd hate that
Havoc: literally on the bottom of the trust list. if you haven't seen what i said about him you're literally living under a rock. he HAS to go next
Jameson: Like the other three monarchs, i don't have much for or against him yet. i have an alliance with him/meuh/neb/jameson but ofc one of them could be lying completely since that hasn't been a very active alliance chat yet
Jelk: I've been talking with Jelk and I like him a lot on a personal level :) there are no other sheriff claims either so i could see jelk easily being perfectly safe. but like eevee- he could be corrupted so idk yet there are def bigger suspects than him rn
Justin: Justin hasn't really talked at all yet- i should prob talk to him tomorrow since i haven't done that yet- i just looked and he's the only lawyer claim? okay- this again LMAOOOO he could be corrupted but i doubt he is... i don't know his gameplay well enough to really know
Kam: I'm just as hesitant with Kam as I am with Justin LMAOOOOO i think she could be a commoner since that's reasonable ig- idk
Logan: Logan's pretty cool- but it's pretty much the same situation as w/jameson
Malik: I don't know what to think about malik? he's being really defensive that he does NOT want to get votes for being monarch. he's cool and all but like i'm not a huge fan of the harsh way he said no and stuff. idk if that's his personality or him just being mafia and not wanting votes LMAOOOO
Meli: i'm honestly fine with meli rn. in one group chat she said "i meant to say that in the mafia chat" but then she correct herself to mafia server so I'm a bit sus of that idk- but like she's def not a target
Meuh: I'm fine with meuh just like i am with meli. aster really wants meuh gone for some reason and i don't understand why? it's really weird LMAO but i'm not sus of him rn
Neb: Neb is fun but like idk where he stands rn LMAOOO I think he could easily be maf and just as easily not maf
Nemo: Nemo is someone who i'd love to trust but simply can't. after being one of the two detectives, i gotta say that i trust piper over him. But i want to work with both of them so I hope they're both clear and neither of them is corrupted LMAO
Noah: wtf can i even say about him? Noah is literally eternally sus and there's nothing we can do about that. I honestly think he's safe because he says a lot to me about the graveyard server that you apparently made just for this game LMAOOO but i think it may be beneficial for him to work with noah rn- just because we're both possible targets
Piper: welp- I trust Piper a lot and hope that they truly reciprocate that feeling- since i want to work with her. if either of the detectives are corrupted, i'd think it would be nemo over her but you can never be sure!
Uke: if uke is fooling me he's doing a hella good job- but I'm LOVING talking to him XD he's like one of the nicest people here and his fun comedic attitude is honestly so refreshing i love it

## Day/Night Two

So, I have set up a way of killing some Mafia or Maniac chaps. As you know, there are two pairs of monarchs rn and I honestly don't think 1/5 of our roster is Monarch. I think there is one pair, and the others are being.. a little.. sneaky. But it won't work! As, I am using the power that the Monarch has, against them. Malik will be blocking all votes cast for Jameson this round, and vice versa. I am Noble, so I have the power to vote them both, and since it will be public, we can 100% confirm if Malik or Jameson is telling the truth, and if one doesn't block, then they are lying scum lmaooo.

It's kind of sad that we're voting to delete the mayor second, because I would've liked Mayor Hoop to observe some of the bloodshed himself before he succumbed to our wrath, but that's the way things go sometimes. I am more than happy to get the mayor out of the way so we can take over.

-Omg I’m the judge in a game where it’s actually powerful 🤩. I 100% expected this vote to be close because Havoc had some people in his corner. -I obviously had to vote out Havoc. The way Havoc was talking to me in dms made feel like he was the mafia over Hoola bc he was being domineering and overall super sus. He was talking to me about teaming up with the maniac and I was like that’s a very mafia like thing to do lmao. There was a few people begging me to vote out Havoc in dms which also made me sus of him, which leads me to the next point... -This brings up a whole new group of suspects! Nemo was oddly campaigning against Hoola and begging me to vote Hoola in dms. But even more so, Arriz was as well. Arriz campaigning against Hoola makes zero sense but from what I’ve seen Arriz has been completely absent from the game. I’ve already told these names to Hoola so maybe we can make some things happen. -I’m not sure whether or not to believe Havoc about the whole Kam/Dani being the maniac/witch thing. I asked Kam if she was in a gc with Havoc and she said yes so I guess that’s a tiny bit of evidence that Havoc was telling the truth, but I really don’t know.

## Day/Night Three

SUS
MeliMeuhUke
KINDA SUS
KamArrizHoola (if the mafia side did something crazy lmao)
NOT SUS

## Day/Night Six

-Ahhhhh the mafia is killing off the commoners and stealing all my votes and allies😭😭😭 rip Logan -Meuh heard word about him being targeted, which means there’s a defector in our alliance. I’m immediately sus of Dani because she’s the only person that isn’t confirmed in the alliance. I still think there’s a possibility Jelk is a corrupted sherif, but I’m not putting too much thought in that.-Naturally I made an alliance chat without Dani and with Me/Malik/Neb/Jameson/Jelk. Meuh threatened to take Malik’s card in town and Malik was begging us to vote out Dani (lol). I went along with the plan because there’s tons of evidence of Dani being the mafia (Nemo targeting her even though there on the same thing to draw away suspicion as he’s done in a game before, her most likely leaking our alliance’s plan, her claiming the healer with Hoola, her not being confirmed safe.)-I kinda expected Meuh to go anyways in the vote, but the votes tied and I broke the tie, sending Dani out. Woo! I’m super surprised that she wasn’t the mafia because everything seemed to be adding up to her being the mafia, but oh well. I’m guessing she was the maniac or was trying to stir up drama for the fun of it.-I’m such an iconic judge

## Day/Night Seven

Hoola arguing with me in the graveyard with him thinking he was behind every mafia vote 🙄. Plz, I was behind the Nemo, Uke, and Kam votes and the Meli and Havoc votes were obvious at the time, and Justin was never on Hoola’s radar either

## Day/Night Eight

* sigh\* alright, well, I didn't use this all game, but this will most likely be the end so I may as well monologue

To put it simply: I'm a tad bit terrified. I've been attempting some mental gymnastics all day, and I think I have stumbled across a terrifying truth...
To give some context, i'll quickly sum up what's led to this: 6 left, with 4 'confirmed' (yes, I used air quotes, spooky foreshadowing :eyes:) against 2 unconfirmed, Meuh & Arriz. Eevee, the leader of the group, dies, leaving 5 remaining.
And its at this point that we need to go back even further for more context
Rounds and rounds ago, Eevee came to the conclusion that there was a mole in our midst, and many thought it to be Dani. I don't think it was, I believe in the end she was another healer.
I think it was Justin.
Basically, the mafia seemed to have an uncanny knowledge of what we were doing, and we were starting to worry. The paranoia resulted in the death of Dani. now we go back to our 6 remaining scenario, where Eevee dies. The leader of the charge falls. Also, quick flashback, Eevee (and sorta myself) only started leading the 'innocents' alliance once our two leaders Hoola and Piper died (once again implying a mole). Our first mistake was taking their dying requests too seriously, considering they had much less information that we do now. This led us to voting Meuh and Arriz, when the real murderer was right under our noses. We flashback to the present. votes are cast, and the result is confusing: only 4 votes, with 5 people. A tie ensues, and the recently deceased Jameson declares Arriz to be the victim of execution. After a bit of confusion, the verdict is that Justin blocked one vote because they were claiming Lawyer And this is where I get sus as H E double hockey sticks.
Allow me to quote Ella for a moment, from one of my DMs
"Queen Ella — Today at 9:43 AM If you got your vote ready, I could announce results now?"
Now let's look at a quote from me talking to Neb:
"MindMap — Today at 9:49 AM Same here, very unfortunate However, in the game Mafia: Witches' Coven, have you voted for someone to be executed? neb — Today at 9:50 AM not yet"
Neb claimed to have not voted, over 5 minutes after the host said that we were ready to announce. My immediate reaction is the reaction that we all assume as members of a game of Mafia: SUS that Neb was for some reason concealing his vote.
And this is mistake Number 2: Us being stupid and not remembering the rules
Mainly me though. Because if I actually thought about it and thought back to Mafia: Thunderrun, literally THE GAME BEFORE WHERE I WAS MONARCH, I would recall that a monarch cannot vote if their partner is dead. Neb's partner was dead. Neb couldn't vote. Quick note here: either Neb was not very communicative about this, as shown by the quote above, or also forgot.
Either way, if we discount Neb's vote, we come to a problem.
And that means it's everyone's favourite time in the Jelk Confessionals: BASIC MATH TIME!
There are 5 people, each person starting with a vote If we take away one vote because Neb cannot vote, we end up with 4. And if we take away one more, because Justin is the lawyer, we end up with 3.
But wait a minute there, buckaroo... We had 4 votes, not 3! which means that either Neb got to vote, or Justin didn't block one and because it is written into the rules that Neb doesn't get to vote, it means that Justin did not block anyone's vote.
Now we go away from the 5 year old maths and start thinking again. Once again contextualising, we are in the endgame, with a voting majority (at least we think, because we all 'forgot' that Neb can't vote, more on those air quotes later) and two clear suspects for who the mafia is. It simply makes no sense to not block a vote and ensure that you win the vote and kick a suspect out. So, in that case, why didn't Justin block a vote?
Unless of course, Justin \*\*can't\*\* block a vote, because they are the mafia! (and here's the note, Justin may have been aware that Neb couldn't vote and just not said anything because, y'know, MAFIA.) This becomes extremely worrying now, because here's the scenario: there are 3 innocents, and 1 mafia, however only 2 of the innocents can vote. In order to outvote the mafia, the innocents need 2 votes. So we're good.
EXCEEPPPPT that its the Mafia's go to kill someone.
So, the mafia (Justin, presumably) has 3 options of who to kill:
- Neb: no reason to kill Neb, he can't vote
- Meuh: Meuh DOES have a vote that can be used against the mafia, however, Meuh has claimed jester the entire game, so if the mafia killed Meuh, they would just most likely die and the Jester takes their role. No dice.
- Jelk (Myself): DOES have a vote that can be used against the mafia, and can't do s\*\*\* if I get stabbed in the night time (yes I censored the naughty word, sue my 2 goody shoes). The option is obvious: I get killed tonight. This would leave 1 vote for the innocents and 1 for the mafia. bit of a problem there, but there may be a way out (PAY ATTENTION TO THIS READER, I WILL BE TALKING MORE ON IT LATER, AND IT MIGHT BE OUR ONLY WAY TO WIN). With one vote on either side, it would theoretically tie, and I'm not sure whether I, the dead person, would get to break the tie or not. If I do get to, its a #1 Victory Royale, yeh fortnite we bout to get down........aaand dang it I started singing Chug Jug HOWEVER, if I don't get to break a tie, and the general Mafia game rule of 'no one dies this time' happens, we just lose, because the mafia kills 1 more person and WINS.
So that's where we're at except that during the writing of this, I have discovered a way to guarantee Victory Royale.
If I get to break the tie as the most recently deceased, I kill Justin and we win. If I don't, we are going to have to engage in some 9000+ IQ plays. Here's how it will go down:
- Neb asks Justin in the group chat who we're voting for
- Justin presumably says Meuh, the primary target for the last few rounds.
- Meuh then confronts Justin "Vote yourself. I'm voting myself, and if you vote me as well, I kill you, take your role and you lose" actually there's a chance Justin still wins so maybe not but annyyyywayy
- It then becomes a bluffing game, and Justin has to decide whether or not Meuh is lying If Justin falls for the bluff, they will vote themselves, and Meuh will vote them as well, killing them and winning the game' If justin doesn't fall for the bluff, either we're screwed or Meuh votes for himself as well and kills Justin, in which case we're still screwed.
Basically it's a very fragile plan that relies on Justin not fully understanding the rules, because i'm now pretty sure that they would win anyway even if they died. It really comes down to whether or not I get to break the tie. Here's hoping I do. It's been nice being alive, see y'all on the other side

"Alright so we gotta vote Meuh asap and hope we don't die either way, we vote Meuh right? cos he has to be the mafia" hehehehe sneeeky manipulation
