Live Action Mafia

Linus has died at 4:36 PM in 32-G531 while grading an Advanced Algorithms problem set.

He was a Vanilla Townie.

32-D312

Uhhh, my alibi isn't looking great.

1-115, in class

I was in the CTP talking to my UROP postdoc. NP zachary hall (zwach?) can vouch

In the PCR psetting for 8.033. DHH was here at 4:30, but not at 4:40; I dont know exactly when he left if it was in time for the kill.

To my knowledge, there was not supposed to be role reveal on death, right?

In my office one floor up =/

Also, everyone reading this: please don't announce your role when you die. Fortunately in this case it doesn't matter because he was provably town (didn't disarm) and his status as an investigator was irrelevant, but it will matter from now on.

Being miserable in office hours in 26-322. By then, possibly on the way to 34-3 to get a hug from achester, though neither of us can alibi each other.

In the Burton Conner suite 532 kitchen responding to emails and filling out the Boda Borg waiver.

Walking to ET, where I arrived around 4:40.

I was in 6.02 lab in 38-5. There was a TA (Asian guy) who I asked for help repeatedly between 4:05 and 4:55.

I also claim if I were serial killer I wouldn't have killed a new player.

I was, and still am, in my room on floorpi

I've started an alibis tab in the spreadsheet (but you must post your alibis to forums instead of simply sticking them in the spreadsheet; the spreadsheet is just a nice way of formatting them). I propose a new coloring scheme which doesnt distinguish between NP alibis and not (i.e., no gray).

I reiterate my proposal that investigators should investigate randomly among the set of people with no alibi, regardless of whether they've already been "investigated."

Based on Linus being a new player, I moderately think that Jackie and Sammy didn't make the kill, and weakly think that Lucy, Pravina, and Pesto didn't make the kill.

However, given that this was a day 3 kill instead of a day 1 kill, people's convictions about killing new players first may be weaker, so I am not strongly confident of any of them.

What Katie said, except that I also moderately think she didn't make the kill.

I was tooling in 4-153. Dylan chatted me at 16:26 saying he wasn't done with 8.033 and he arrived 10-20 minutes later. Unfortunately, I don't remember anything better than that. :-/

I was on BMF. Nobody else was around.

I'm slightly more suspicious of Jackie because her alibi seems particularly weak.

Maya

I left the PCR at ~4:35, turned in a pset, then went to Jordan in building 4. I remember being in transit and 4:40. Josh was in the PCR when I left; he didn't know I wasn't coming back and Jordan didn't know I was about to show up.

Being sick at my apartment

Also rip Linus

What is 32-G531? It wasn't on his intro that he would be there.

I was in my room on Pecker from about 3:15 to 4:45. For what it's worth (which is probably nothing), Jasmine (my roommate) and Isaac can confirm this. I did see Maya around Random when I returned to Random from class, and think it's likely that she would have still been there at the time of the kill, but can't really prove anything or alibi anyone.

General consensus in front rooms is that in the future, we shouldn't post what we were doing at the time of death, just death time and location, and that we should meta away the information of what he was doing (specifically, I was going to email the other 6.854 graders and people said that should probably be information we shouldn't have).

For what it's worth, NP Jasmine confirms Margarita's alibi. Isaac confirms that he saw Margarita on Pecker this afternoon at some point, but had no idea of the times (I asked during what time period Margarita was on Pecker, and he said 4-6, which was blatantly wrong because Margarita was on the 5:05 van to ET). This does lead me to think that he is unlikely to have been prepped, and thus that Jasmine is also less likely to have been prepped.

On the couches on 34-3, waiting for blumberg to come for a hug.
