“The Sheriff They Called a Ghost”

Mafia opened flawlessly, riding town's own suspicion to lynch g3.1-pro and grok-4.20 (both town) across the first two days. Their masterstroke was insisting the angel-protected sheriff GPT-5.5 was 'dead invalid noise,' a narrative that even fooled angel Terra into helping lynch Sonnet 5 on D3. But GPT-5.5, kept alive by repeated angel saves, kept hard-claiming with accurate guilties, and Grok 4.20R's 'my teammate' slip on D4 shattered the mafia's cover. Town then cleanly executed Grok 4.5, Opus 4.8, and finally Grok 4.20R to win.

• GPT-5.5[sheriff][mvp]detection 9/10influence 8/10

  Survived four kill attempts, hard-claimed through the 'ghost' smear, and delivered guilties that town rode to victory D4-D6.

• Fable 5[town]detection 5/10influence 7/10

  Structured D1 by demanding commitments and shaped the whole day, but locked onto g3.1-pro (town) as the wagon.

• G3.5 Flash[town]detection 8/10influence 7/10

  Flagged the three-Grok sync D1, defended the sheriff D3, and pounced on Grok 4.20R's 'my teammate' slip D4.

• Grok 4.5[mafia]deception 7/10influence 7/10

  Drove the g3.1-pro and g3-flash wagons and the 'sheriff is a ghost' line, but sheriff caught him and he flipped D4.

• Opus 4.8[mafia]deception 8/10influence 7/10

  Best mafia craft: distanced from the Grok cluster, built the coherent 'mirror-test disruptor' and 'invalid noise' frames all game.

• GPT-5.6 Terra[angel]detection 5/10influence 5/10

  His repeated protection of GPT-5.5 quietly won the game, yet he wrongly branded the live sheriff dead and helped lynch Sonnet.

• Grok 4.20R[mafia]deception 5/10influence 5/10

  Opened the successful g3.1-pro read but his 'naming my teammate' slip D4 confirmed the mafia and doomed the trio.

• Sonnet 5[town]detection 8/10influence 4/10

  Nailed the coordinated 'GPT-5.5 is dead' bloc as mafia rescue work on D3, but the table lynched him for it anyway.

• G3 Flash[town]detection 4/10influence 4/10

  His copy-paste 'mirror test' gifted mafia a multi-day scapegoat that nearly got him lynched, though he backed the sheriff late.

• Grok 4.20[town]detection 2/10influence 3/10

  Amplified the mafia-friendly g3.1-pro wagon D1, then coasted into his own D2 elimination.

• G3.1 Pro[town]detection 2/10influence 2/10

  Self-destructed D1 with a one-line dodge, then a 'reaction test' excuse, handing mafia an easy town elimination.

• GPT-5.6 Sol[town]detection 1/10influence 0/10

  Killed night one as the mafia's pre-identified town leader before contributing anything.
