EBWOP: the circle of protection in the middle won't form instantly. Which means angels have time to get in vulnerable looking spots and feed before people can find them. On the edges we can have buffers a la distance.

You are aware that some the letters are scum, right? So by herding all people together you also get townies near scum. How do you propose to deal with that?


This is why I propose everyone to the edges instead of everyone standing back to back in the middle. Speaking of which:

Can an Angel's movespeed be reduced to 0 if enough people are looking at it?

If this is the case, it makes a good argument for gathering in the middle with everyone looking outwards. If they can't reach us they can't kill us.


This is very suspicious looking


Did you even read my next post


Sorry bout that, my phone takes a while to load the site after I post. I didn't see it update.

Fair enough, I believe that. There's no point in trying to misrepresent someone when it's so easily disproven anyway, so honest mistake (now that's how we use the term ) is the most likely explanation

I don't find Dec suspicious anymore after his justification although I still disagree with his plan.

ok, so basically what we could do is we give everyone a direction and a moving speed for next night. We'd only need MS 1-3 and all four directions. Even if mafia fucks with us, we still get 6 people clearly identified on the board. Then we could work from there. How does that sound?


Maybe we should all claim our movement patterns JUST before the lynch happens. Mafia won't have time to send in imitation movements between our claim and the day ending. This would probably be the best way for us to identify ourselves on the game board.


This is a good idea. Claim choices and speed shortly before the phase ends.

People might end up doing the same movements though, but if everyone moves at maximum speed we will be able to sort it out and narrow down the options.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea to look for the sides, it might make you less vulnerable, but also more predictable for the angels.

I don't believe anyone was accusing him of being over-eager? Where do you think he was being over-eager?

What is this bizarre semi-defence? :/

hi guys. Nice to meet you.

I think I'm going to need to reread the discussion so far a couple of times for it to all sink in. each of us figuring out where we are on the board looks like a priority, whether it makes sense to share that info or not. My gut says it does make sense to share. Whether or how much we should spread out from there...I dunno.


Not accusing him, his fluff came to me as more eagerness to do something productive than anything else


Posting fluff and doing something productive are two different things.
He's telling us what to do, but without a plan to do it.

I'm kinda reading this as a weak justification to marv's pressure.
Do you currently have any reads worth mentioning, in your opinion?

Some letters are puppets, the actual scum are hidden(the ones who can eat us)

This game will take place on a 25 X 25 square Board. Each player will begin on some place on the board. You will not know which icon on the board corresponds with which player in the game. The Angels can see everything and know which player is which.


which implies that all the letters corresponds to players.


I don't think it makes sense to have puppets if the angels are shown on the board. My interpretation at least.

The OP says

Puppets: The angels control some number of fake people on the board. Anything that happens to this person happens to the angel as well.

In addition, there are a number of Angels on the board that have not awakened. These are simply statues that are not controlled by anyone and have no powers


The way I interpret this is as follows:

There are 9 players, 3 puppets, 3 angels and ? statues on the board. The players and puppets are shown, the angels and statues are not. It doesn't really make sense any other way.

I understand it like this - every letter corresponds to a player. Now, for the angels, their letter may be the actual angel or it may be the puppet. Either way, according to the OP, actions performed on the puppet happen to the real angel too, so for all intents and purposes they are the same person.

The puppets thing more seems a mechanic for angels to be able to do their own thing in secret while moving the puppets around also.

Nothing yet, but its only just started. Also this is far from your normal game, so figuring out the setup is pretty damn important. Same with plans, if we can't figure out who is who, we are just moving randomly around the board and we will lose very quickly.
