TWG LVII - The Return of Mephistopheles

11 Players:
Beelzebub - Master Wolf - Can Spy on one player's deal each phase, chosen at random. He will be given the Deal ID and the written agreement.
Mammon - Wolf - Debt collector. Can kill any player in the game at any time. Useable only once. His identity will be revealed when he does so.
Belphegor - Wolf
Gabriel - Seer (blue)
Raphael - Guardian (silver)
Micheal - Archangel (gold) - Can cancel one player's deal each phase, chosen at random. Doesn't restore the game to any prior state, just cancels the contract and it's prior/associated deal chain, if one exists.
5 Humans (green)

Wolves know each other, Angels know each other.

You thought it was over, didn't you?

I'm here to make another deal with you, but this time the powers that be forced me to change the rules a bit. This time he's sending his own Angels to aid your pathetic existence. However, I am sending my own minions to make sure it is a fair game.

Each player can make a deal with the devil for any reason at any time. You can make a deal for whatever you wish, and I will tell you what it will cost you. I can deny any deal I wish, but I will be kind and tell you why, if it doesn't violate the natural laws of the universe or another contract.
Be creative in your deals, you can get anything your heart desires. There are a few ground rules, however; a few deals that the powers that be will not permit me to make:

 - You cannot kill anybody; no insta-lynchings or additional wolfings.
 - You cannot violate the laws of time and space, no phase extensions or reductions.
 - You cannot resurrect anybody; I'm not in the saving business, death is permanent.

I have a few ground rules of my own that you should understand before making a deal. I may not be holy, but I never said I wasn't fair:
 
 - All deals revolve around fair trade; something must give for you to get.
 - I get to decide what is given up for you to get what you want, and you will be told the cost, but not who will pay it or how.
 - Once the deal is struck, it is final; you cannot back out of it for any reason.
 - You cannot ask for information regarding deals with other players.
 - You cannot make a deal to effect, affect, alter, or otherwise cancel another players' natural power. These are the abilities they start out with.

Making a Deal:
If you want to make a deal, all you have to do is call me via PM:

"I, [insert name], wish for [the deal you wish to strike] to be executed in the following manner:
List the details."

I will reply:
"I, Mephistopheles, agree to grant [name] the [deal you wish to make] in the following manner:
Details,
 At the cost of [to be determined]."

All you have to do then is reply with the phrase "I agree to this contract" and give your signature, or state that the deal is off. Once the deal is struck it will be given an identification number, randomly generated, and all parties will refer to it as such from that point on.

I advise you to be as clear and detailed as possible, otherwise you will give me the right to execute the deal in any manner I see fitting. You cannot strike the same deal twice, if you back out from an earlier deal you cannot ask me about it later.

Once more to be perfectly clear:
You cannot discuss any aspect of these deals with anybody. You cannot tell anybody that you've struck a deal, the nature of a deal, or question other players about deals they might've had.

All deals with me are confidential; you will not be allowed to discuss your deal or its terms to any other player. Doing so is a breach in contract and I have every right to collect your debt. "What is your debt?" you may ask. In order to play this game, you will agree to sign over your soul to me until this game is completed. You have no obligation to sign this contract, and there will be no penalty against you if don't. All you have to do is sign on the dotted line.

Shall we have this dance again,
Mephistopheles

Also (this should be obvious, but still):
The Angels should NOT claim, due to Mammon (unless they get a red seering?). The only problem that might arise from that is if one of them is in risk of being lynched...

um.... mammon sacrifices themselves...  I personally would let michael claim, and let them be the spokesperson for the alliance. we dont lynch anyone green till the end,
the only problem would be if mammon is seered, then they may do a suicide run. but i feel michael should claim at least.

Ok so are we having seer claim then or not? Personally, I don't think it's a very good idea. Sure, we could potentially take out Mammon, but we'd also be out a seer. Which is bad, especially this early in the game.

K-night, all 3 angels know each other. It "doesnt matter" who claims, as long as seer is guarded. It might actually be more beneficial if they dont claim until day 1, that way they have some element of suprise. I still dont know what the best way is to deal with a red scan.

It wont be painful if they claimed now, but they d have to be weary on how they claim.
But only 1 to claim.

Also, those deals...

I don't think Micheal should use his power at all. He doesn't choose the target and chances are he will cancel a humans deal.

Lets let the wolves run wild with deals everywhere... Good idea.

We outnumber the wolves anyway so we get more deals, if we could pick our target it may be different but it's random. If you guys want to go cancelling deals then Micheal is someone I'll be trying to kill.

But Mammon would just kill the seer anyway. You can't guard during a day phase, and mammon can kill at any time. Since all the specials know each other, I really dont see any reason for any of them to claim

/facepalm...

there's a reason why I made the statement of "anyone can claim". because wolves would be forced into a gambit. (when it comes to the night phases)
the safest action is to have micheal claim. micheal (imo) is the less beneficial to humans, as tbwcw stated earlier. if the angels can find a good way to "deal" with mammon efectively, then they can play the card of "anyone claming" without "risk" of losing them to mammon.

also, tip for the future, focusing on only one part of what im saying, may cause you to miss something. and I "enjoy" repeating myself.

on a side note, why u no here tumbleweed??? we need you right nao :/

Then the wolves can just wolf the unguarded one (the one that claims).
