AliceofOz, Ninfia, T3tsuya, Kiku, Rodea, Aistaraina?? Probably more but off the top of my head these are the players who haven't really commented on the current events in-thread or discussed anything this phase
There hasn't been many new developments to discuss until just now. But if you want words, I have words. Several, in fact.
Luckily, I have just flown in on my Jeticopter. With Kotakia in tow. She has obediently accepted the protection of the strong and as a result she will sit comfortably at the feet of the leader of the new world. The services I provide are available to anybody who seeks happiness and safety through serving their betters. Yes, even those who have already had a lapse in critical brain function enough to deny my employ. I will be reaching out to push the decision of those who don't have the strength to do it on their own.
Tiki, unfortunately, could not join us. He was very busy playing in a ditch trying to make a castle out of mud using his hands and mouth. He has thrown off all remaining illusions of rational thought and abandoned my offer of employ. Ah, the dreams of the poor. He has coincidentally tossed away all chance of actual Title and control over a lesser Duchy in the new world to waste away building a monument to bad decisions out of filth.
Well, like they say, followers will be welcomed with open arms. Traitors will not be missed.

Harem?
Harem?The retinue of the Tetsuya Conglomerate are not single-purpose buyable bodies. All people regardless of creed, nationality, or gender are equally considered for employment and subsequent maid uniform fitting. They provide obedient service and recieve unparalleled boons afforded only to those who willingly submit.
They have important tasks to fulfill outside of concubinal obligations.

- Things About the Recruitment:
How did the recruitment happen?
A) The recruiter hand-picked their target.
B) The recruited met a certain mystery condition that turned them mafia.
C) The recruited is a turncoat.
D) The recruitment is a result of a relationship power.
Who is the recruiter?
A) Someone who was under scrutiny during the last phase and, therefore, needed to act asap.
B) I... think that was the only suggestion, actually? But everyone pretty much agreed it seems unlikely, since the phase was quickly turning into a NL scenario. I have a suggestion I guess
C) If the recruitment was carried out by fulfilling a condition, maybe it's possible that the condition was set on N0 and fulfilled by D1 and mafia didn't have much control over it?? In which case, trying to identify the recruiter gets a lot trickier.
Who was recruited?
A) A strong, talkative veteran player.
B) A quieter player not in anyone's radar as of yet. These two options seem equally likely to me tbh, although I think if I were mafia I would prefer to go along with the first option, since quiet players are somewhat vulnerable to getting policy-lynched after a while.
So what we have gained from this new round of speculation is that:
The recruitment role may or may not have hand picked their target. They may or may not have a condition to this ability. They might have, but then again might have not needed to act quickly because of a possible relationship activated ability.
The recruited may or may not have been a strong veteran. Or then again they might have been quieter. And that is because the ambiguous person may or may not have been killed soon, but only if that person was born on the Thursday of a leap year.

Clearly.
We decided to NL to glean more information in additional phases as new actions occur for a reason. Additionally I feel it's both worthless and actually a detriment to try to squeeze more information from virtually nothing. We have a very select list of things that are known as a fact, straying too far from that causes undue confusion.
Sit. Wait. Observe. There's been someone unduly sent away, that is more pressing.

Though, to be fair," Tiki shrugged, "given some things said since this whole thing has started to blow up...
I don't

money situation.
"First of all, because they are all apparently a part of a club...and that implies they share the
money. I have trouble seeing him sharing anything. He would just want people to work for him, like that bizarro application letter he gave me implied. So, while I doubt rich boy
cares about our clubs and extracurricular activities, I don't think he's among the thieves."
I've read (!!) it stated by others that they think
T3t's harem ting is
probably tied to
a neutral win condition for himself.
And yeah,until further evidence comes along, I'm willing to buy that T3t is neutral this time around.
@chinomi
That is great...though not as good as
this. (I don't get why sometimes I can't just insert the gif, bah.)
While I find it unfathomable that you managed to read written text, this is something I will address.
I do have a set endgame goal. Domination of school and country leads to unification, and those unified under a strong banner present an insurmountable threat to all who would cause trouble. My goal, however, is personal and all my own. I am after all a philanthropist.
I provide a service that is provably beneficial to all who seek it that is unique to me. I also provide vengeance that is swift and absolute to those who would target me that is unique to myself and those under my influence.
So, while I don't at all care about ants killing ants, I do have a stake in all of this that is beneficial to most. And it is not something as boring and subtle as neutrality. Do not confuse apathy for dismissal of duty.

Sorry. Didn't mean for it to sound so bad. T_T
As much as I would love to see somebody throw you off a building for a bad excuse, I have to keep you firmly grounded under my heel for a short while.
I find the Alice vote interesting. I would like you to expand on that more than you have, because as of right now I don't feel you have good reason. That combined with the fact that you have, so far, denied someone's confession that she made for the express reason of protecting us. Only to then seek employ under me so you could quit before you were fired (Out of a cannon). It makes me wonder what, besides hot air, is going through your head.
Please literally explain this to the rest of the class.
I will hold my opinion until more facts arise. I do have a list of people whose behaviors are not in line with my idea of normal, but that might just because they've made physical contact with a certain previous employee of mine and something vile rubbed off on them.
What I want on my desk before I return:
Eleni is to post proving she can speak today, and explain her actions over the last night.
My attractively troubled secretary, Kotakia is to explain more specifics of her role.
Luxaria is to explain if she did or did not do something last night.
Everyone is to explain the nature of their current relationships and if they changed recently. If they won't explain their relationship, say why.
I have a meeting. Try to manage until then. Any questions can also be left on my desk in triplicate.

Oh come on, I am at least a douchecanoe. A douchewaffle will feed you for a day. A douchecanoe will hold you and rock you as you cry.
The fact I may have caused that to happen to begin with, inconsequential.
I am a canoe of comfort. The Good Ship Tetsuya.
