BIONICLE Mafia XVII: Burnmad's Carnival of Death

[ToaKapura1234]

Oh dear now Burn has a hardware glitch and must be executed

Oooh... That's a good point there, hadn't considered that...

 

Alright, switching from voxumo to ShadowVezon!

[Makuta Luroka]

Vox and SV

[ShadowVezon]

You realise that the black hood is a rather... obvious clue, don't you? Almost like it could be a red herring?

 

Voting for Voxumo and Watcher.

[Burnmad]

I have to ask when I ever said anything about a hood.

 

Also, that hint as to how to hang the guy. That's still relevant.

 

Although, at this point, it requires everyone's participation. Probably not likely, considering one of those people is the killer himself. =P

[ShadowVezon]

Oh yeah. I assumed that, since there was black robes, there'd be a black hood as well, especially since others have been using that to blame me for the murders.

 

So, if they got the right person, I'm guessing he wouldn't be hung without the specific conditions being met. Unfortunately, I don't know the answer to the hint, so I can't help.

 

EDIT: I figured it out.

Why not make it public to help the lynching? If it points towards someone other than yourself, and you're so desperate to not get red herringed...

[ShadowVezon]

Yes, but I know what our mystery interloper does, and it would be in my best interest that he remains alive. He does kill, of course, but to my knowledge, as well as his, he only kills special roles, although that knowledge isn't definite, and is probably only partially accurate. Notice how the only people who have been killed were Carnival Acts and the Guard. All of those are people who can kill, and so I believe that our killer can only kill people who themselves are guilty of murder.

 

I was hoping to confirm my theories, but my other contact seems to have neglected to provide that information. I didn't think he would, considering what is at stake here, and my theory is still with evidence, but it would have been good to have some confirmation. Regardless, as previously stated, I would rather like my "friend" to stay alive, which is why I cannot help you. I admit that my additional knowledge probably helped me figure out the hint, but you can figure it out yourself.

[Chro]

It always makes me frustrated when I have no idea what's going on behind the scenes. I thought I would have some idea of it, but MOPE never actually did anything, and nobody ever tells me anything. Plus I'm dead.

 

Have fun with being mysterious.

[ShadowVezon]

Well, now's one of the few times when I actually have an inkling of idea about what's going on behind the scenes.

[Shadowhawk]

Lynch ShadowVezon. Lynch him, I say.

[ShadowVezon]

But why would you want to kill a poor old villain, multiversal dictator, known traitor, Hitman, Dark Hunter, serial killer, gladiator, and possible expy of Santa Claus like me?

[Voxumo]

Hmm.. too all you who are currently voting to see me lynched, why? What reason is there behind it besides just hoping to put a face to the crimes? I mean I'm not going to proclaim my innocense, but neither will I allow such foolish lynching. I believe lynching should be for a reason, not just convenience.

[ShadowVezon]

You expect reasoning from the Village?

[Voxumo]

I would not say reasoning, more along the lines thought.

[Burnmad]

SV: 3

Vox: 2

Watcher: 2

 

Day 4

 

"They sure pegged me as the killer fast,"

SV said, as he pulled down a glass,

And gulped down one last draught,

Of drink, for he could not,

Return here, as he'd done in the past.

 

When the Matoran searched in his house,

No one was there, not even a louse.

All the cellar yielded,

Was the scythe he'd wielded,

A few drops of eggnog, and a mouse.

 

So the angry village would make do,

Killing Voxumo, and Watcher, too.

They brought them to the square,

Up to the gallows, where,

The number of dead would rise by two.

 

First came Watcher on the Walls, and when,

He stood where many of his kind had been,

He thought up a poem,

that might, perhaps, show them,

But they cut him off 'fore he began.

 

Voxumo came up after he died.

"I was only the Doctor!" he cried.

The Matoran cared not.

They tied his noose's knot,

And down with the trapdoor Vox flied.

 

Watcher was a Game Operator,

And Voxumo had been the Doctor.

On the fourth day they hanged.

Majority be danged,

There's still two living Pro-Villagers!

*slowly claps* 

Pat yourself on the back village, you deserve it.

 

But hey, at least we know ShadowVezon is the ringleader

I still don't get what Christmas has to do with all this.

[TBK]

Double lynchings are like Christmas morning for me.

 

Wait, what?

[Shadowhawk]

Christmas. That's the clue. I'm sure of it.
 
Read that last scene again, and tell me what poem Burnmad based it on. I'd bet my lungs and liver it was that one that goes, 'Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house...

Not to mention the eggnog.
 
And there were other hints in previous scenes as well. Gifts. Stockings. Coal dust. A party hat, if I remember correctly.

[Voltex]

The secret role is obviously Santa Claus

[Taka Nuvia]

Now everything makes perfect sense. Thank you.

[Chro]

I can't wait for the reactions when it turns out that it is actually Santa Claus

[Burnmad]

You haven't even touched the tip of the iceberg, my friends.

[Chro]

The secret role is Santa Claus, plus the Titanic

[Burnmad]

The Titanic is actually tangentially related... =P

 

-

[Chro]

The secret role is Santa Claus, as played by Leonardo DiCaprio

[Ehksidian]

No, it's Santa Claus, and he makes the Mafia a sinking wreck.

[Taka Nuvia]

tangentially as in 'tip of the iceberg'-related? (I find no emoticon to illustrate my own awful jokes, yay =D)

Or as in everything's about to go down dramatically? D:

[Burnmad]

Well done, Chro. I didn't think anyone would figure it out.

 

Srsly tho, no more hints for you guys.

 

You won't get them anyway, none of you have played it.

 

-

[ShadowVezon]

You know, I prefer bourbon.

 

And I did tell you it was Christmas themed. I'm not sure how the Titanic fits into it, though, unless there's something Burnmad didn't tell me. He was pretty vague.

[Burnmad]

You still need to send in your target for tonight, BTW.

 

-

[Voltex]

none of you have played it.

methinks Gunpoint might be related

[Chro]

Richard Conway, in disguise as Santa Claus, played by Leonardo DiCaprio

[Burnmad]

Yup, you've got it.

 

It's not Gunpoint. =P

[Hitoshura]

...did I really just miss my own execution? Oh well

[Valendale]

Tip of the iceberg...I must be involved here somehow.

[Makuta Luroka]

You've cracked the code.

[Manducus]

We're on Day 4? I always thought we were like on Day 8 or something.

[Chro]

We're on Day 4? I always thought we were like on Day 8 or something.

Four days, four nights... eight half-days, sure.
