How did you guys let them ... unbelievable. Sorry I wasn't here.

LOL what?

I'm looking closer at the role Juliets claims to have, and it looks like it has to be civ, since I don't think we had any town killers in this game (at most 1 kill per night sort of confirms that).

Unless Epi made all the roles, and then randomized the alignments. Then such a judgment becomes completely moot.

I'm voting Luna. She's been stringing us along with far too zero results. [VOTE: Luna] aubergine

I just wanna quote this for posterity.

hahahaha...I could certainly be wrong. But really, how would they use that role? What utility does it have for them?

Well, they could, for instance, out themselves and then deceive the Civs in a crucial endgame situation.

And if Luna is bad?

Dang.

I am a civilian.

We've all been railroaded in the past. Lord knows I have. I never like it... I feel like Eloh bringing me up as a candidate after all the tinfoil has been brought to light and examined thoroughly already.... I feel like that's baddie-motivated. The Mafia need to keep finding false reasons to lynch Civs; it's their entire game, really. I think Eloh misjudged how thoroughly I have been accepted (rightly) as Civ, and believes she can make this happennnnnnnnn or is it Luna as the baddie, coming in to support the ideas of a player who hasn't had the thread-commitment to realize that a Long Con lynch isn't the way to go... Luna supporting the (if I may) crazy ideas. An opportunity nurtured?

The whole Luna-speedchuck thing still looks like it could be it. I have a bad taste in my mouth about how last phase ended up, with the oh-so-close-but-not-quite Lie Detect, and GOSHDARNIT speedchuck tried to fix it but voting for nothing doesn't undo your vote and they could have asked the host about that if they were bad... but them bad together, what is that even, with the "she's a rolecop er I mean a lie detector". Baddie teammates don't do that kind of weirdness.

That's good, I would have voted for JJJ in a heartbeat. I agree about Eloh, I don't think her suspicion of me is genuine. [VOTE: Eloh] aubergine

Long Con wrote: ↑Thu May 02, 2019 9:06 pm Ok, but voting DDL means Luna gets a lie-detect. Right?

No. She evidently did not count on you voting at all.

That's strange, I'm pretty sure I've voted in every lynch poll so far.

Ok, but voting DDL means Luna gets a lie-detect. Right?

Should I vote DDL then? For the numbers toward the lie detect? But he asked us specifically to not do this.

Some confusing stuff today, but I'm going to do what I decided to back when speedchuck first said she's bad, and [VOTE: Luna] aubergine.

At first? When did you come in the thread?

This is a good catch...

Why is this a good catch? When I first came to the thread, the host post was already corrected, and I saw Juliets' comment about how it was the unfortunate right thing to do, or something... I was confused as well.

juliets wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2019 3:37 pmThis is funny to me because in my tinfoiliest mind LC could be bad. LC is a gambit guy and what better, more brilliant gambit than to bus Jack with a made up role (I mean the role is really weird you have to admit) and ride the wave of being mechanically cleared until the end. Now, do I believe that happened? No, but it's still an idea that creeps up on me when I'm considering people.

One important factor is that no one else came forward with a reason for two nights in a row. Although I guess that it could have been a thing where my baddie teammate uses their ability to make two nights to give me some extra oomph... I would love to pull a gambit like that. Though that baddie teammate dying would reveal me. But the truth is, sadly, WYSIWYG.

RIP Dragomir, I hardly knew ye.

I'll [VOTE: leetic] aubergine because POE, and sub request, and so on...

I was being coy, but the fact that I haven't come forth with anything else becomes more apparent each day. It was a one-shot ability... it really had to be, or I'd be making double-days or double-nights every phase.

Posting curses: more likely a baddie role generally.

Person who has been pushing the idea that roles and alignment are, in this game, definitely completely separate: JJJ



[VOTE: JJJ] aubergine

Sweet dagger-drop.

JJJ, speedchuck

I haven't been hit with that power, in answer to that question earlier. What is Nova quoting, some Steely Dan song?

What's an x-shot?

What's the nature of nova's insanity?

No prob, I'm so roastable most of the time. The Discord tell would have been a sweet one, though.

Jack's right - he said "Chatzy" and somehow my memory changed it to "Discord". My bad.

So, knowing Jack is bad, I just think back to these posts:

Hopefully after tonight I'll glean more from a nice reread.

Please clarify this for me. How do we know Jack is bad? Did I miss something? Or are you just saying what you feel certain about?

The water turned to cherry wine. Two nights. That means Jack is bad.

Dafuck is this?

I'm not bad and I can prove it.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 1:50 pm I can freaking prove my ability as soon as the day starts.

Jack, the day started.

Juliet's response was not very impressive to me, I don't believe that she has a lack of understanding about my Discord Theory. I also don't believe she has a lack of understanding of how distancing from and accusing a teammate when you think you're getting lynched is a smart thing to do.

Exactly.

Jay did introduce the claiming idea very shortly before Juliets claimed a role that is "not bad, don't lynch, nk is fine"... that's the literal definition of her supposed role.

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2019 4:15 pm Everyone should also be mindful that this is a claim-friendly game. That doesn't mean you need to blab for no reason, but it does mean that you should keep the option in your tool belt. I would hate to see a needless lynch that could be prevented by a sound claim.

The concern would be the recent advent of soup-killing. Epi's rules do not mention such a thing (doesn't mean it doesn't exist), but it's also never something he has done before. Who knows.

Jay sorry I was doing something else. I think Daisy's reason for voting me is shit but I think it's because she has not played with me as much recently. I think Jack's theory about Daisy is shit because it's clear as day she wan't defending me. I think Daisy is town, I think Jack is bad. I've forgotten who the other person is you asked for my read on.

linki

Distancing from Jack, buddying with Civ Daisy. I don't like the vulgarity and it could be frustrated baddie coming through. I dunno. That's a bit tunnelly, but it's what I thought when I read it.

juliets wrote: ↑Tue Apr 23, 2019 4:18 pm Ok I'm tired of all this. I am basically a stump. If I get killed in the night by the mafia I can't vote anymore but I can continue to post. If I'm lynched I'm dead.

I still believe in Mac and the J-Squad.

I can even believe in a baddie chat that lost Mac and rallied as "the J-Squad YEAH" and that graphic was just too good to keep in the baddie chat so it was worked into the thread as visual WIFOM.

Also, was it Jack who was trying to turn it around on me back there, and he said something about me checking Discord? I've never used Discord in my baddie chats, but one thing I do know is that Juliets is possibly the most frequent Discord user on the site. That was a little slip from Jack.

I'm gonna [VOTE: Jack] aubergine at this time in case I end up on some unexpected epic adventure tomorrow and can't get online.

Spacedaisy wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 8:29 pm I have no clue what that was all about. Has Jack been red peeked?

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 5:45 pm I'd like to kindly point out that skipping day phases is not a frigging town aligned power.

It's the price we pay for me to root out the evil.

Are there one-shot roles in this game?

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 4:05 pm Jack is saying LC is just straight up lying and isn't paying any heed to alternative possibilities. Bad.

I mean, misdirection is always possible but LC said he was 100% sure. That's why I think he's straight up lying.

Of course you're right, misdirections exist. So nothing can be 100%. How about, barring someone messing with my role in some way, I'm 100% sure that you're bad. Is that better?

I'm permanently invisible; have been for years.

Go back to after I voted Mac and see the things you said. That involvement. That made me suspect you.

So...you made us skip the day phase and this is somehow my fault?

Nahnah. I'm the good guy here.

Sorry Jack. You shouldn't have made me distrust you. I didn't like your involvement in the Mac lynch.

If the silver turns to gold, two days in a row.

novaselinenever wrote: ↑Thu Apr 25, 2019 3:53 pm Wait, mods can see you when you're invisible?

You got it, bro.

Nah, I was checking in from a patio with wings and a beer, and the sunshine made it too hard to keep reading my phone, so I put it away.

You're not supposed to be able to see me anyway, because I'm invisible... but half the site regulars are mods of some sort with super powers, so that's fine.

Jack is scrambling to throw a bunch of fake news at you, but don't be fooled. If he were Civ, then we'd be having two days in a row instead. The end.

So far the roles we’ve seen have a Steely Dan song title. I’m trying to figure out which song titles match the current role claims.

I don't see that my role name matches my role description - maybe I'm missing something though. I could share my role name unless people think it's better I hold back in case someone else claims it.

I think that the title-role connections are tenuous at best.
