Revealing flips, passive kp protection, item that reveals all unpivked roles? Item that allows a vT to pick a role from all unpicked roles?

2-3 man listcheck, 1 shot priest power, other assorted nonsense

May be using term wrong, but like a cop.check for a group. Give a few names, see whether anyone in that group is mafia

Something that is day use or used n3 but reports to thread maybe better. Don't want someone who gets the thing snipped off before whatever s invented can be used

No.. just annoyed

Its pretty demotivating when you are trying to engage people in discussion and constantly provoke people to actually think.
And then everyone just shits all over you.

Lastly, Geript play has really been alerting me all cycle.

His only strong opinion with foundation has been VE, who he tunneled relentlessly.
And he has that stupid post, where he calls me town based on an alignment null post.
Later, he regresses and associates me with scum.

And then there is this stupid bickering with Sn0, who is prob CPR Medic based on claims thus far.

If im alive night 2, im role checking Geript.
At no point has everyone crapped on you.

I have some thoughts that you may be mafia. I still do. But I met some serious resistance in thread.

So...join geript in the knock it off club. Ain't pity party time (and, because I'm mildly tunnel-y, I totally intepret the pity party as a scummy thing trying to keep me from shooting you). If you're town, you did play a solid town game for a while, but seemed to get a bit disorganized overnight and during this cycle, maybe because we got so far ahead after the D1 lynch. Oh well, it happens.

Yeah, there's not much time to shoot but I'm serious when I've said all along that the long game favors town and I don't think people should be firing KP all over the place. Perhaps it's dumb to not use the shot, but oh well.

Only thing I'm super considering is shooting obviousone, as a prelynch almost, since it appears that he's going down. But I don't love having stalled this long, only to dick with the double lynch this late in the cycle.

Frankly, I don't love my play during the nuke day as a whole. Not enough scumhunting, too much crappy play and disinterest in game.

At least ppl gave you resistance.

I just got ignored.

There is a big difference Austin.

I can handle the being ignored; because at least people like Kei have kept going back/forth with me.

But when you get called scummy for trying to generate meaningful conversation; that is truly annoying.

I gave you plenty of resistance yesterday, and resistance again today on something (snb?). This day as a whole has also been much more ignore-y when someone brought concerns to light.

Again, if you're town, you played a solid D1. Whatever, it's not time for postgame, so I'ma shut up about this.

Lol why would you shoot OO at this point that'd be dumb.

Because it gives us more information to work with for the double lynch, and it appears ENTIRELY unlikely that he survives anyhow. Except there's not much information to be gained from that shot, much more from other shots, but I don't want to go around blasting random folks.

Did austin just claim scum?

Applause for Sharrant going down like a boss.
No, but if nobody caught RO straight up calling sn0_man out as the inventor, sn0_man admitting it, and half a page of discussing WHAT HE SHOULD INVENT, then ... I dunno how to better put the pieces together for them.

There's always the chance that the someone missing things is scum and the inventions can be a big help.


Again, especially for geript, this is why sn0 is almost certainly town, much more likely town than any other claim but justice vigi. As the top spot, he could have NOT invented, just stolen the role and claimed to be CPR doc holding shots or whatever. He could have invented something that wasn't pro-town (assuming a DT check pro-town, and since you can't trick folks with your inventions it is). Instead, he invented something that seems pro-town, which indicates heavily that he's town. All the invention ideas thrown out later were pro-town. So...EVEN IF HE'S SCUM, HE'S STUCK MAKING PRO-TOWN INVENTIONS.

But he's almost certainly not. Much more likely that we've got fake DT claims, or scum america, or scum mason, or scum plenty of things. But certainly not justice vigi, and probably not scum inventor. Ta da.

so far we have austin/SnB/keirath/Sharrant

keirathi is off the block as far as i am concerned, boviously so is austin

So SnB or Sharrant?
?

I am not shooting. ALTHOUGH THIS IS ONE REASON WHY I'M STILL FRIGGING TEMPTED TO SHOOT YOU.

WE ARE NOT LYNCHING PEOPLE BASED ON THEIR CLAIMS. NOBODY IS GETTING LYNCHED FOR PICKING X OR Y. PEOPLE ARE GETTING LYNCHED FOR BEING SCUMMY, OR BECAUSE FOLKS ARE SHEEPING, OR BECAUSE ... I DON'T ACTUALLY PARTICULARLY KNOW. BUT NOBODY IS LYNCHING PEOPLE JUST BECAUSE THEY PICKED A CERTAIN THING.

It pulls some people off the table. It possibly catches scum. It forces scum to commit to a story now, rather than later, if they want to fakeclaim.

Maybe geript had terminally low blood pressure, and dangling sn0 claiming in front of him all day helped to raise his blood pressure and save his life.

EVEN IF THE POINT WAS TO LYNCH PEOPLE WHY WOULD WE JUST GO "LET'S LYNCH PEOPLE WHO CLAIMED DETECTIVE ROLES"?

That doesn't make sense to me why, if we were lynching on only claims, we'd lynch ... a specific role that was claimed?

Because we came to the conclusion

there was too many dt roles

we asked for hard dt claims & didnt get them

I forgot to add Vivax as a dt claimer.
Who is we, where did this happen, where were there too many DT roles, and who did not provide a hard claim?

No, it's not great reasoning. But that one is far different from the reasoning on sn0. Moreover, you can attack RO based on his PLAY this game if you'd like.

Anyone who thinks RO is full-on confirmed based on role is being a sillybilly. Same with all DTs, claimed VTs, and other nonsense.

But roles like justice vigi AND INVENTOR are almost certainly town, given that they have to play pro-town or they die.

kk. You guys will have night, but you can try to use the DTs to check each other, and know whether you can trust checks. I'm a bum and unsure if that's a great idea or not. Hopefully the invention can also skirt the line of what's allowed as a power level.

Vote rigger sounds all mafia-y, but my character is a politician and that was the role I looked at if I was picking within-role, so I don't think choosing that makes you mafia. It's basically KP the day you rig the votes, and extra lynches on the days you use it to multi-lynch, so it's not inherently anti-town, even though dicking with votes often seems scummy.

Shelvocke seems likely town based on the D1 artanis/shelvocke/VE stuff, but ... THIS IS A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF INACTIVITY AND ORIGINAL THOUGHT from someone who is smurfing. I have never seen a smurf just bury his head this much and I hate hate hate hate hate how the votes on D1 went because otherwise he'd be standing head and shoulders above a lot of people.

Ugh. My apologies for my play this cycle. Already having a bad game + getting nuked meant that I just didn't work into the right mindset to play out the day. Didn't hunt enough, wasn't active enough throughout, and ... blech. Oh well, something to improve on.

Actually not shooting.

GG folks. Big thanks to BC and Kurumi for hosting. Regardless of flak about roles or powers or handholding, this game took a bunch of legwork and it was greatly appreciated. Except the part where you saw MZ's nuke post and nuked me, that bit of hosting was sadface.


I'd agree with syllo on the role stuff, in fact. From reading the other PYP games, scum is at a huge disadvantage these games compared to normal, because they can actually get 100% caught based on claims/roles sometimes. Even in a themed game they usually have safe fakeclaims, or town-aligned character names, or something like that. Here there are NO protections like that. As best I can tell, some of the roles that were added were meant to address that somewhat - BC, thief, roleswapper, to make claiming less bad for scum, and I'd be interested to see how this might have played out if scum had gone for thief/roleswapper, traded some early KP for some messing with the roles, although, tbh, we didn't get much out of the claims except for "injustice vig."

I don't think I'd have been quite as townie on D2 if I weren't set to die. I do think that Keirathi's check and reasoning on me made sense, but I also have played with him and could kind of understand his desire to check me under the circumstances. I could see that making less sense if you haven't played with him/us. Sorry for not scumhunting more D2, I felt like I was active but not actually pushing the game forward and I didn't use my soon-to-be-guaranteed-towniness as much as I should. My b. And yeah, the nuke and reaction, especially hoping I wouldn't be nuked because of misspelling my name, was actually kind of funny.

Can people tell me what I obviously missed about why Kei was town? How do you find a way to overlook a bad early game to focus on the obvious other points?
The way I was viewing it, he felt town because of his check but also just...nobody was really sharing your suspicions. And keirathi was either faking a check on my for no good reason or to save a scumbuddy, because there's just not much reason for him to fake check town as scum if he's not a DT (risks there being a real NKVD agent).

So if I flip scum off the nuke, maybe he just got caught. If I flip town off the nuke, then it's LIKELY that he's not faking his check and had good reason to check me and is town.

Honestly, that's what I was looking at with both sn0 and keirathi. I had information on sn0 that I didn't want to give out - knowing he was an inventor, knowing that he invented a DT check instead of KP (scum probably invents KP or lynchproof vests or something less townie). My flip would confirm that I actually had that information, and would tell you something about keirathi as well.

At the very least, then, when I was 100% slated to die at the end of the cycle, I don't think you should be trying to build and push reads on keirathi or sn0, because you're about to get guaranteed information there given that janitor was already blown and I'd flip. You were discarding information that would become public knowledge, discarding my play during D2, and you thinking they were both scummy sort of required you thinking that I was scum and lying about stuff, when I was going to die and flip and get revealed and all the lying would be worthless. No real reason for scum to be active and lie, because it gets them NOTHING at the end of cycle when the nuke hits.

Tbh, kei was mildly suspicious D1 to me. I didn't have a fully town vibe on him until seeing his check on me, and seeing some of his posts D2. To me, beyond reasons he was town, there were just reasons not to worry about him during D2, because if I were actually green come the flips, his actions wouldn't have made sense as scum.
