“Sheriff's Gambit Cracks the Mafia Triangle”

Mafia opened by killing Sam and steered Day 1 into lynching town's Omar after he inexplicably collapsed into repeated one-liners. Sheriff Nora then flipped the game with a bold D2 claim outing Diego, and Maya's instant, over-eager defense of Diego branded her as a partner—confirmed by Nora's N3 check. Priya's dying roadmap of the Diego-Maya-Rhea triangle plus Li's Angel claim and protection kept Nora alive through the endgame. With the math laid bare, town read Rhea's consensus-riding and closed out all three mafia for the win.

• Nora[sheriff][mvp]detection 9/10influence 9/10

  Nailed Diego and Maya on checks, sold the risk-asymmetry argument, and dictated every post-D2 elimination to carry town to victory.

• Priya[town]detection 8/10influence 8/10

  Recovered from a weak one-liner to map the exact Diego-Maya-Rhea trio, a roadmap that guided town's endgame reads.

• Li[angel]detection 8/10influence 7/10

  Staked an Angel claim to back Nora, protected her decisively N4, and correctly locked onto Rhea's consensus-riding at the end.

• Ivy[town]detection 7/10influence 7/10

  Built the Day 1 structure forcing everyone on record and pressed Diego/Omar for real alternatives before being killed N2 as a threat.

• Diego[mafia]deception 6/10influence 6/10

  Effectively drove the Omar lynch and redirected onto Priya, but led his sheriff counterclaim with a technicality instead of results and lost the duel.

• Ken[town]detection 7/10influence 6/10

  Repeatedly demanded independent behavioral cases and pushed Maya-as-partner and Rhea-consensus-riding reads instead of blindly riding Nora.

• Maya[mafia]deception 5/10influence 5/10

  Blended early but torched her cover with an instant full-throated defense of Diego the second Nora claimed, flagged as teammate behavior.

• Rhea[mafia]deception 7/10influence 5/10

  Survived longest of the mafia by amplifying safe waves and deflecting onto Zoe, but never generated cover strong enough to escape the final read.

• Tess[town]detection 6/10influence 5/10

  Consistent, correct votes and called Rhea's reactive pattern early, though largely tracked the sheriff-driven consensus.

• Zoe[town]detection 5/10influence 4/10

  Voted correctly every day but mostly echoed the strongest wave, drawing repeated (accurate) criticism for low original input.

• Omar[town]detection 2/10influence 2/10

  Torched Priya for lurking, then self-destructed by posting three identical 'need more info' one-liners, handing mafia a free town lynch.

• Sam[town]detection 2/10influence 1/10

  Killed N1 before contributing; his reputation as an analyst is what made him the mafia's first target.
