Have you figured out your deets situation? Any clarifications you want to make?
It’s BS that you’d just give the game over to someone that’s had barely any interaction or participation even when he wasn’t silenced. He’s had 23 posts the entire game. That’s it. You’re all ready to kill me claiming that it’s because I haven’t contributed enough in a way that suits you but you’re willing to turn the win over to a guy that the consensus is that he’s the SK and he has not even 30 posts. BS.
You gotta vote however you feel you gotta vote. I don’t have any deets to offer - that’s not how my role works. There’s not a way for me to prove that I’m town and that I’ve successfully acted to town’s benefit - but I have.
I’d guess that there will be more anti-serums available. Be active, contribute to solving, & try to check in throughout the day for anti-serum opportunities. And be hella wary of anyone that tries to push this vote through without making sure everyone has a had a chance to be saved from the poison. Town has the most to lose here from a fast yeet. It’s bad enough that I’m pretty confident we have a town v town thunderdome happening. Let’s not make it worse by losing people to poison by not paying attention.
Yes….that mysterious aura tweaking that you, he, & Cactus received.
I suspect that Rhea was the last vocal member of a dwindling scum team. She tapped a good dance but at the end of the day got hung out to dry by mostly absent teammates.
That’s a good point. For Cactus to be scum it would mean they poisoned their own guy. Which isn’t unheard of so he’s not hard cleared, imo, but that is a helluva risk. Sounds like you’re in agreement with me that there’s something up with Cody & Jade. Who rounds out your Sus list currently?
You’re the one that’s going to have to explain to Mab what happened to her Winter Knight.
Clearly he’s not a Princess Bride fan. I think my feelings are hurt.
Let’s chat (hopefully captain grumpy mod won’t send anymore poison my way)….
I do!
You didn’t ask me, but I would yeet Cody if we had the option today. I think he’s the SK and his bpv got popped last night.
As I said to him, I think this TvT. I don’t like Cody, Jade, or Cactus. Their ISO’s are terrible and I struggle to find anything productive in what I see.
I know I’m town. And I lean town for you. The only ones that win today will be scum. Which sucks. I have no idea what role you have, but I know that mine is absolutely advantageous to town. There’s not really a way to convey how advantageous, though, without claiming (which still gets me dead).
You’re right that it doesn’t matter for today, but it’s worth noting for whoever is left next phase. If it was a bpv situation then it lends credence to the theory that he was the SK and if it’s been popped then he’s vulnerable. Of course, the poison might take him out, I suppose.
IMO, we gain a greater advantage of taking out the SK if his kill ability works the way it has been theorized (by killing those that visit the person he watches). He took out two in one night. We just got lucky that they were scum and not town. On the flip side, I can’t recall any evidence that scum can take out more than one person per night.
I agree with others that he’s the most likely candidate for Rajah.
I had to go back and reread as well. I see what you see as well. Three separate scum actions plus a yellow action. When you take into account the two other scum flips we’ve had and the other yellow turned red flip that brings us to a 5 person original scum team plus their yellow recruit and a second 3p that appears to be an SK. From a balance standpoint, it doesn’t seem likely that there would be any additional hidden scum beyond that.
I have not heard of that, but that’s an interesting theory.
I’ve seen games where town gets a vig shot but if they use it and kill town then they also die. That appears to be what happened here.
Hmmm…do you think it may have been a case of the body snatchers?
I assumed nothing, sir. I didn’t say “Hey VK - you made a boo-boo here.” I asked politely, I might add, IF a mistake had been made.
That’s where my head was at too. Maybe his role is a scum backup?
I read the CWE character ad town because it was in green. Do you think it’s a hidden traitor role? Or that it does something different?
I feel confident in reading them as separate because we got confirmation in the flip that Sabrina was Mazer and that they had been recruited to scum. If she was also Rajah then it would have been in the flip and we wouldn’t have seen that role show up again.
Or it could be that somebody is playing CWE and a second town character but has only used their CWE action that one time. We’ve seen a couple other town roles flip that had multiple characters.
How do you self-resolve tonight?
I can see that stance. There has been plenty of tunneling this game. We’ll have to take on the gopher as an FOS mascot.
Nobody guilts me into voting. LOL.
Meh. That was D1. Lots has happened since then. I’d have to do an ISO to revaluation Dude Love. Rhea has gotten progressively shadier since that time. Culminating with her reaction to Strange’s explanation of his missed Discord message. It’s such a convoluted thing to lie about so it moved him to a town read for me. Her hard push against it solidified her to my Sus list.
So what do you think the action did? It was down to you and Cactus, you’re absolutely in the best position to give more context. Do you think it swapped your targets? How did it confuse the two of you?
The language in the write up is pretty standard bus drive language for a rajah style game. It’s a reasonable interpretation.
Wonder if they were trying to protect against a Mick check or track with the Catcus/Mick bus drive. With the pressure that was being applied last phase it makes sense that someone would have tired to target Mick for more info.
I started to ask why you thought there was a failed attempt against you two specifically but then realized that since both of you were seemingly protected in the write up and that there doesn’t appear to have been a scum kill last night that you are correct. I need more coffee I think.
I can’t remember the role name (Oracle maybe?) where the player can ask specific questions at night and get evasive answers. Wondering if that is what is happening here?
Rajah’s last stakeout resulted in two deaths (both ultimately turned out to be scum, I believe). No deaths this time, though. I remember someone hypothesizing that Rajah killed whoever he saw visit his target. May be onto something.
Scum seems determined to target Merlin (silenced last phase, something new this phase). Makes me think he has a role that has them worried and that they think they can’t kill him for some reason.
Protect of some kind, I assume.
Bus drive? Don’t often see these this late in the game. Interesting.
More listening devices?
Cardboard cutout and mentioning it as a substitute….is Psycho able to copy something about Mazer?
Another protect action.
She mentions being able to bring someone with them. Did Harry choose to go alone here or will we see someone else get pulled out midphase?
Wonder if this will be a permanent change or just for this phase.
Merlin’s deets appear to have been spot on.
So with Jafar flipping town, I look forward to hearing from the ones that I saw swearing Jafar was scum and had been all along.
Pug was in stasis yesterday (that’s why we got a flip on him at end of phase).
The cardboard cutout part is especially interesting. We’re they maybe able to copy something about him?
What did Violina’s action do for you, Potter, & Cactus?
Welcome back. My read from last phase was that they silenced you. Is that correct?
I’ve only had a chance to skim because of work (bless you Mankind for your synopsis) and was coming here prepared to vote Strange because of the odd interaction with the gun. But you make an excellent point as well.
If we don’t reach majority then modified majority kicks in.
If you and @Mankind vote sleep with me that puts us it at 4 votes and no misyeets today.
That being said, if the choice is between yeeting TFB or Jafar I would yeet TFB. I think it’s a misyeet but at least Jafar is contributing. TFB has 8 posts since the game started.
Scum knows alignments yes, but not which town person has the doc/protect. Glinda is saying that revealing someone’s alignment publicly screws with balance the same way it would if scum were granted a wish to know who the town doc was.
Here’s my concern with a TFB vote now that we know there was a death last night.
I feel like we got a fair amount of info from the write up.
Oh VK that sneaky bastard. I only read the original write up. I didn't go to the front page.
With this being Wrestlemania weekend I'm not at all surprised at the low post counts from anyone. Even with anonymous accounts we know that a good chunk of FOS members are wrestling fans. Between the Wrestlemania go-home Smackdown showing on Friday, the Hall of Fame induction ceremony following it and then two nights of Wrestlemania with pre-show starting at like 5pm ET on Saturday and Sunday most people just aren't going to be around.
That's how I'm feeling.
I'm still working to get current, but I haven't seen much to dissuade me so far.
I guess its possible. Is it really a Rajah-style game without a rez mechanic?
A point of view that may indicate that that run of votes was intended to make him look guilty rather than save him.
I felt the same way. The only thing that gave me any pause was incredulity that any scum team would be that blatant on D1. If they were, then it was a big slip.
Yeah, that run of votes on TFB was hella sus.
Its absolutely allowed to change from start of game. However, I am interested to know what Jafar did that swayed your opinion.
Mazer appears to have been recruited. I wonder what that means for Rajah. Can he also be recruited?
Mass Roleblock of some kind? With only "some" being chilled to the core and a "bunch," but not all, saying fuck this then I'd guess it's only a certain percentage effective.
Protect of some kind. Maybe jailkeeper?
"big red x through one of the sections" makes me think scum caused something to be obscured from the write up.
Silence or post restrict action?
Track action?
????
Interesting. I wonder how Jafar fits the clue given to Tribal Council at the end of D1 "Cointed a well-phrased term."
Curmudgeonly is the perfect word here. Like you, I read it as with purpose but have been struggling to decide whether or not its AI.
I'd have to do an ISO to see what they've said game-wise, but they've had some quality content regarding Sirius' avatar choice.
I'm still working out a dislike list. So far I do like Rhea, Sabrina, and Dude Love's posts. I like several of your posts, but the way you and Paul are interacting causes me some doubt. You seem to be pretty aligned and that just makes me a wonder if its because you're reading things the same way or because you're able to talk things out in another chat.
We may be playing anonymously but we are still presumably the same group of usual players with maybe a few surprises. There’s no way we pull off that level of coordination.
I do love someone that take the time to know the rules.
So sus that you've voting to grant her immunity? Or are you hoping she'll fall into the 3rd vote getter spot?
I don't know that I've ever seen a blue goat. How interesting. lol
Ooohhh!!! Pretty! I like blue!
Violina could also be a mod mechanic vs an actual person playing a character. Wouldn't be the first time VK has done something along those lines.
