Then again, I alwsys thought it would be pretty cool if I lived till lylo and then used my immortality to destroy the mafia in the end. Hence my wanting to get rid of double life players.

And I couldn't be ordinarily Night killed, hence my suspicion of you for wanting that.

Why the hell would you have a button that changes people's roles anyway? That's asinine.

Even in this, if I got lynched or whatever and found out I was bad round 2, I would be pissed.

The host posts told you that there were two mafia teams within two night posts, which I expected people to pick up on. They also noted Marmot's power use and Wilgy's power use. One thing they didn't do was tell you whether a kill was missed or not, despite the flavour.

I refuse to read into host posts.

Ah, I see what you mean. I meant in a vaccuum.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 10:57 pm I want to know why sig was killed by whichever team did that, if that’s even in anyone’s memory anymore. He was the easiest suspect in Cerberus at the time.

sig is never the easiest suspect because he's always the easiest suspect.

Two. Scotty targeted you both times, so your role was much more relevant to the way you could play than the actual outcome.

It would have been interesting to see the reactions to your role flip if you had been nked the night scotty saved you.

Lame. My bewbs fell flat.

I was trying to draw as many Night kills as possible. How many did I bag?

I thought that was a rhetorical question.

hm? explain how

The best thing you could do with that role as mafia is get people to trust you (because you can out yourself, and people would be unlikely to consider a secret message sender was bad). The problem is that, with two mafia teams, you could out yourself to a member of the other team and draw their kill, because a civilian with that role is dangerous.

If you are bad, and yours is the only team, you don't run that risk.

What was the Evil Evens BTSC like after LC named Cerberus in the Pikachu thread?

Kylemii wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 10:17 pm i only used my message power like 3 times. it was hard for me to ever justify trusting anyone enough to send a message to anyone telling them any thoughts on things that might have been unique somehow from what i was saying in the thread, given that i wasn't actually saying much in the thread in the first place because of time issues

Your role was a liability to your team because there were two mafia teams. Had there only been one, you could have gotten some mileage out of it.

Also, my bewbs protected me

Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 10:04 pm It is ancient history now, but my overconfidence about Marmot was misguided and a total accident, I think. The hosts can clarify for me what actually happened now, but the reason I was so damn sure Marmot was bad was that I thought I copied his role and used it to kill Sig early in the game. Later on Golden would tell me I was not able to copy a mafia nightkill, so sig apparently died by some other circumstances (I chose him as my target because I figured he was the least likely player to be killed that night), but I assumed I had done it and caught scum in the process.

I did kill INH and nutella though. Assist to Blooper on that one. Her 1-shot role eliminated three baddies.

Whom were you going to kill had you had another chance as you requested?

colonialbob wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 10:04 pm Yay team!

I'm still kinda surprised I didn't get lynched. I read Epi's case on me and was like "damn I can't really argue with any of that."

I dropped it.

You couldn't have killed Scotty.

Quin wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 9:46 pm this whole game I was thinking 'i feel sorry for any townies who reincarnate as scum' because we were absolutely killing it in this game. Not sure if that was actually happening though.
It was not.

I included the rule because I was a little concerned that the two-life set-up favoured civilians quite heavily, and I wanted it to create doubt. In the end I don't think the setup was too badly favouring civilians, although people were better than I expected at assessing whether roles were better for town or mafia and correctly placing them as a result.

The setup favored civilians quite a bit, but not for the reasons you name here:

By giving everyone two roles, this essentially doubled the length of the game, which meant civilians had plenty of time (1416 hours!) to gather results, discuss things, and consider all angles. The longer mafia have to dance, the less likely they are to win.

speedchuck wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 9:44 pm Yeah, I recently had Epi delete an entire scumchat to avoid revealing myself in a game he wasn't hosting.

Crap happens, especially when you're scum in like ten games at once.

That's right.

Nine times out of ten, if that happens, one of your teammates is mafia in another game that you are in, no matter what I tell you.

Quin wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 9:39 pm can I talk about how nutella accidentally exposed her first role to me in fire emblem baddie chat now?

That happens more often than people would think.

Oh, I see.

speedchuck wrote: ↑Fri Apr 20, 2018 9:21 pm I was apparently the one taking myself off the poll all those days without knowing it. Sorry I accused you Quin.

Scotty even saved you once... despite your role, because sprityo had stolen it.

Well done Scotty.

Well done.

I mean sometimes you gotta work for it, and sometimes they just hand it to you on a plate. Good one lads.

If Boomslang is bad and the game isn't over, lynch DDL, the evil independent who finds it necessary to thin the herd.

"I wanna get rid of more people with 2 lives" is not a civilian course of action at this stage. It's effectively a scorched earth policy. Blindly eliminating first lives means mafia are free to eliminate people for good.

That's evil talk.

Least active player among the ones I feel the least good about, stuff other people have pointed out about interactions I'm okay with, more likely to have missed kills... and I wanna get rid of more people with 2 lives. We have enough civs that we can afford to waste more time... even if I wish this game would just end faster.
I don't understand your prejudice here.
I don't want any baddies with 2 lives in lylo, no matter what.

What about civilians?

[VOTE: Boomslang] aubergine

I am plenty willing to hear who should be lynched instead of you. But I need to hear from you for that to even be possible.

Boomslang wrote: ↑Thu Apr 19, 2018 7:30 pm Sure, because with literally no other mafia left, I'd willingly miss a kill. Ya'll are crazy.

Who missed a kill?

Mine has tweezers. For...you know. Making Duck sauce.

You'll need tweezers if you sit to Sloonei's left.

Why "Dammit?"

Normally, that's a word that indicates displeasure and resignation.

Boomslang is coasting in the Game of Champions.

I want him talking or dead.

My analysis did not immediately require a Kylemii lynch though.

Evil Even right there.

Not even gonna lie.

I did my time with Natty Ice.

Scotty wrote: ↑Wed Apr 18, 2018 10:36 pm If Boom is not Even, it’s also not like he’s going to be NK’d before we go there. I don’t want to have to go through 2 more lynches to get to him, but that’s what we’re working with.

If anyone has a defense for Boom, feel free to bring it.

In the meantime, I’m pulling up to the campfire with some Natty Ices. Anyone else is free to join in and we can talk Gossip Girl and compare tribal tattoos or what have you

This post makes me think you are evil.

Natty Ice?

Gossip Girl?

Tribal Tattoos?

I'm sold.

I'm cool with Scotty going for the triple play.

Kylemii wrote: ↑Wed Apr 18, 2018 8:43 pm wow.*

who dat forth even is

I have no reason to believe that any of the lynched mafia members were good in their first lives. None. I am going to extrapolate that to mean that the (presumably) remaining Even was naughty early on too, and that no one has "turned."

Quin wrote: ↑Wed Apr 18, 2018 9:40 am This lynch feels too resigned. Not that I've done much to point it in any other direction. Still, I sense a complacency that ought not be sensed.

So thus, I throw a vote on someone I feel has been complacent during the Kyle-lynch countdown.

[VOTE: colonialbob] aubergine

The only way colonialbob killed Scotty was if he could kill across tribes, and he couldn't, because he was Charlie Night 2. colonialbob was on Cerberus Night 8 when sprityo was killed. The only way colonialbob killed sprityo is if his second role could kill across tribes, and even then, it leaves Scotty's killer unaccounted for.

My only positive for Kyle is that while so many mafia fell off the face of the planet, he's still here having a go. I respect that. Unfortunately, that alone at this stage is not enough to buy him any further time.

If Kyle is a civilian, I need a direct, clear reason to venture after someone else. I haven't gotten that, and I'm not trying to make one up.
