It's Always Someone You Know: Scream 2022 Mafia Game Thread

[Barry Poppins]

then again mafia SHOULD have known there would be no kills last night, so bus driving tpein specifically would be a seriously odd choice. would have to be a redirect probably?

It's extremely likely that I was redirected towards a scum player. The question now is who...

Considering two people might die tonight, it’s a given I think.

something is bothering me

Juice was a JOAT

Lethal was JK

There is no way Lethal team is JK, Bus driver
And there is no way a JOAT + Bus driver is a thing the way Juice played

SO either Lethal partner is also a JOAT with bus driver or there is no such thing as bus driver.

I also have a theory that Juice partner is a back up of Juice role, but again doesn't make sense the way Juice played.

I don't think there's a bus driver either.

Occam's Razor dictates that all things being equal, the answer with the least assumptions is likely the most correct one, therefore, the best answer to work with is simply that scum had a redirection role that they used.

Welcome to Woodsboro: Scream 2022 Mafia!
Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers, to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.

You are Richie Kirsch
Role(s): Tailor, Redirector, Governor

"Because nobody takes the true fans seriously, not really. They just laugh at us, and why? Because we love something? We're just a fucking joke to them! How can Fandom be toxic? It's about love! You don't fucking understand, these movies are important to people."

He groomed his accomplice girlfriend, 17-year-old Amber Freeman, on a subreddit for Stab in 2021. The pair devised a plan to make their own Stab movie to serve as both a reboot and sequel, following the disappointment of Stab 8 (2021) simply known as Stab, using Sam as a scapegoat for their killer. He and Amber are the second and third known Stab fanatic Ghostface killers, following Charlie Walker.
When Sam's sister, Tara Carpenter, is attacked by Ghostface, Richie returns to Woodsboro with Sam to 'support' her. After luring Sam to 261 Turner Lane, he attempts to trick her into believing Tara is the killer. She later violently murders him on Wednesday 29, September, almost 25 years to the day after the conclusion of the original massacre.

You are a Mafia Tailor.

You have the following active abilities:

You may kill someone each night, if no other member of your faction is performing this action. Assuming no interference with your action, that player will die.

You may each night tailor a player, causing that player to be viewed as the opposite of their true alignment if investigated by any Cop abilities on that same night.

Twice in the game at Night, you may target one player and redirect their night action(s), if they have any, to a specific secondary target instead of that person's original target.

You may once per game choose to stop a elimination, resulting in no one being eliminated on that day.

You win if at least one requel mafia member is alive and all other players are dead (or if nothing can prevent the same).​

Welcome to Woodsboro: Scream 2022 Mafia!
Twenty-five years after a streak of brutal murders shocked the quiet town of Woodsboro, a new killer has donned the Ghostface mask and begins targeting a group of teenagers, to resurrect secrets from the town’s deadly past.

You are Gale Weathers
Role(s): Vengeful

"Those fuckers can die in anonymity."

In the original film, she claims and later proves Cotton Weary's innocence and wrongful death row conviction of rape and murder in Maureen Prescott's 1995 murder trial. Alongside Maureen's daughter Sidney, she has solved and survived the events of all five Ghostface killing sprees, inspired by the original massacre created by Maureen's true killer, Billy Loomis.

The former opportunistic reporter is the ex-wife of the late, former Sheriff Dewey Riley, and close confidante to Sidney, whom she develops a trust and bond with eventually throughout the films. Introduced as a Top Story journalist from New York City, she survives the original Woodsboro Massacre in 1996, where she meets her future ex-husband, enduring an on-off 25-year-spanning romance, which ends in his murder. Gale avenges her ex's death by setting his killer on fire.

As an author, Gale has written at least seven books based on Sidney Prescott's life, five real-life events based, beginning with Wrongly Accused (1996). Her best-seller The Woodsboro Murders (1997 book) is adapted into a slasher movie called Stab in 1998, and is followed by true-events based crime novels, College Terror (1998 book), Hollywood Horror (2000 book), and the fictional books, Ghostface Returns (2007 novel) and Knife of the Hunter (2009 novel) (all seen in Scream 4). She also most likely published a yet-unknown titled book based on the Woodsboro Remake (events of Scream 4).

Gale finally opts to quit tabloid media and stories about Ghostface forever, so that the killers die in anonymity. She suggests writing a biography about a "brave man who used to be the sheriff" in the town once, referencing Dewey.

You are a Vengeful Townie.
You may choose to kill a player if you are ever eliminated.

You have no active abilities.

You win if all threats to the town are eliminated and at least one town-aligned player is alive.​

It is now Day 5. With 5 players it takes 3 to lynch. You have 24 hours.​

Holy shit what a fucking amazing move by Ace.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Even better, that confirms me as town more than ever before.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Sadly though, we now have to re-examine our POE, with Jeff flipping scum.

 

[Barry Poppins]

I really have to rethink whether I want to even push OMB now.

 

[OMB]
