Oh, and at the people saying they are disappointed at my play/inactivity so far, all I can say is my bad yo. I thought I was set up for a research position but then the NIH was like no more funding for you lawl! and cut grants so I've been scrambling to find research positions. I think I did pretty well on my interviews so I'll have more time now that I'm not so busy anymore. (Though I might only be posting intermittently on Saturday since I will be going to my undergrad to see my underclassmen graduate.)

Bumatlarge. Where were you(I don't mean this literally)? You vehemently defended Kavdragon early on, but completely disappeared for 6 hours, despite the heat growing considerably on him, only to pop in 1 minute after the day post to apologize. You never once pushed for Barundar, a player who was a viable alternative to Kav.

I was playing Terraria, when I looked at the clock it was too late blame the game! I would have just said this a different way.

Haha kavdragon as a suspect again because hes trying too hard, thats funny guys havent heard that before. Lynch him later sure, when a case has been built up and he has added to his crimes. When it becomes apparent that he should be the target the next day, because we dont have a completely different bag of fish to fry. If you lynch him now because he's trying too hard like he has FOR THE PAST 5 FUCKING GAMES AS TOWN, I WILL BLOW A FUCKING NUT.


And this happens exactly as I say. Sorry I wasn't around to vehemently call people stupid to the point where I would probably get banned. It's good though, because maybe I won't get shot yet, and I still won't get lynched. Not gonna comment on checking me, because thats up to the DTs.

The only hard part is figuring out who is scum and who is just being plain awful. GM for instance. Geez man you better then anyone should have seen the Kav thing coming. Oh well. Let's see what night brings us.

Yesterday there were 8 people on hopeless lynch candidates with 2 votes or less. The lynch was decided by one vote. I would like to hear from some of these people on why they felt their vote should be thrown away. Not surprisingly, most of these people also lurked pretty hard on day one.

deconduo, Fishball, Kurumi, Eiii, Mr. Wiggles, Scamp, OriginalName, tnkted

Also, there should be more discussion about the inventor. We shouldn't give free reign to the power roles to do whatever they feel like. So far the two most popular suggestions have been bulletproof vests and vote checking kits. If a vote checking kit was to be created, town should inform which group to use it on so we don't have overlap. Like I said before, no ambiguous names should be tolerated. If we see a "potato" in the night post rather than "A bomb that only blows up when given to mafia", then the inventor should be strongly considered as a lynch candidate.

P.S. Deconduo is pretty much confirmed anti-town (VI or scum). Someone shoot him tonight.

So, why has decon been playing strangely? To catch scum. Here's the fun thing, townies will think I could be scum or VI, whereas mafia would think I'm almost certainly VI. They know I can't be mafia and that is their downfall.

If you look at the people pushing for me to get lynched I would guess its nearly all townies. Mafia would want someone else lynched as lynching me doesn't help them at all. They would be pushing for me to get shot during the night.

I would be pretty sure from how he reacted that kitaman is mafia. I'd be suspicious of FW and Chezinu, and maybe Dreamflower. Kavdragon and Node are almost certainly town. Maybe Eiii as well.


For reference, I attempted to pick Bulletproof but it was already taken. I feel like this information benefits mafia more than town, but as people are pushing for me to reveal it...

wut lol. How does that make sense at all? Why wouldn't lynching you help mafia? That's a whole day wasted + night actions for them? They don't care if a townie is lynched or if a VI is lynched? Obviously they prefer the townie/blue role over the VI but in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter? Like kita said, fail post ;_;

So if anyone has multiple KP and is unsure of who to hit, deconduo is an obvious choice

Hold the phone. Decon claims to have taken bulletproof and missed. Bulletproof is almost useless for a mafia player, and there are wayyy more other pro-town roles that also benefit mafia hugely, while still looking pro-town. I don't see an anti-town player drafting for Bulletproof, hopefully we can mainly agree on that. It's possible, but would be a really bad play.

There are 18 players below Decon, and I bet at least one of them went after Bulletproof. If someone else drafted it, then they will call him out.

Assuming Decon is town, it also gives every player above him a modicum of protection from mafia tonight.

As a general note on using a bunch of KP night 1. This is a terrible idea. Mostly for the obvious reason that the amount of info we have will skyrocket after our first mafia kill, and as the game goes on. But also, there are multiple roles in this game which allow players to avoid lynches, in the event this happens, town really needs some KP to deal with it.

Agreed. Inventor(Scamp) needs to create one or the other in my mind. Obviously if he's mafia he will just give it to his buddy. Given that, a vote-checker is much more useless to mafia than a Bulletproof vest. So, lets see a vote-checking kit tonight.

I still think a bomb that must be passed every 12 hours and explodes when held by mafia but not by town is a good thing. :p

That'll find mafia for sure, and kill them too.

Also, "Vote-checking Kit" is still ambiguous. For all we know, it will check vote-lists and tell mafia how many people with roles voted to help them snipe.

I say we put in a policy where the person who received the inventor item must claim that they did so, so we can keep them accountable. That way, if they feed us false information, we can do something about it.

More telling is that apparently someone above Decon took Bulletproof. I can't really see anyone that high taking that role.

What's that Mr. Wiggles? Was my 'mafia-seeking missile' not a good enough idea?

How's that work?

Also, this would clear townies too, because if they hold it and it doesn't blow up, then they're not mafia (or at least narrowed down to GF or cover).

It's balanced because a framed townie will explode, if a player holds it too long they'll explode, and if a player dies holding it, the bomb is lost.

Also, EXPLOSIONS.

That's still a moderately useless item for mafia to have. Remember, it's only a one use item(I assume).

Also, what would you name your bomb that could be unambiguous. Assuming Ver would allow an item like that, obviously it would be great.

Mafia-sniffing bomb, mafia-sensitive proximity bomb or something like that, I'd assume.

For vote-checker, just name it mafia-vote checker, then it becomes unambiguous. Just "vote checker" only tells us that it checks votes, not what.

I'd write it so the bomb remains in play until it explodes, or is lost. It can be passed freely with no limit on passes. It's one-use, because its use is to explode mafia.
