I don't think so Amine, i think you should read again this:
"That was one strange night, it was. Lots of things happened, and me ship could've turned into a real bloodbath to be sure, but somehow, casualties were limited to one unfortunate soul."
Last night, i had to play at basically rock paper and scissors and i survived, so i think Newt had to do that too. So i must ask who had to play at rock paper and scissors last night?
If Newt died by that, someone roleblocked maf or someone protected the victim in my opinion.
