Reminder not to touch that edit button, even for typos. Thanks!

I’m still willing to roll the dice on falcon here
It’s a calculated risk.

8 players going into night, 6v1v1

At most, sprityo has marked 3 people, AND mafia may even overlap. If he is successful, AND mafia happen to kill a different town, and he doesn’t just ALSO kill a mafia (which would be even closer for us) we are down to 2 v 1 v 1 at worst. That’s already highly unlikely, but let’s say that happens, we’re in lylo? Maybe? Yeet mafia, sprit probably has no NK, (and THAT is a near certainty in design if he is an arsonist) so then it’s still 2:1 going into the day after, as he probably can’t mark and kill in the same night.

I think there’s too many variables and yall are overthinking this

#2753

Either way we are playing with multiple unknowns still.

Why did we do this?

Falcon's wagon is big enough and to let the possibility of a switch in case wilgy's math is right.

I didn't know if I can wake up or not

#2755

I’m not nervous of dying tonite, so I’ll talk more tomorrow, but yall; don’t get off track if I’m silenced or strong armed or whatever.
If sprityo needs to go tomorrow when he’s still alive, that’s probably the time to kill him.

Then after that, if I die, please follow poe

#2756

I didn't get to read much before EoD, but I think my previous thoughts are fair.

Maf after Falc is either Pyx or Michelle.

If there's another after then Cape makes sense.

Absolutely. It occurs to me that having a mafia-siding 3p isn’t out of the realm of possibilities, and I’m operating under the notion that sprit doesn’t have our best intentions at heart, but the math doesn’t math that he just wins tonight in any form of role I’ve ever seen

Mmmmmm I like it, yes.

Also, I foresee the strong possibility that mafia might kill you to take one of sprit’s targets away and make us deal with him.

And for that I’m sorry if it is the case.

#2759

Regarding Cape, I know his wolf play can deceive easily.
He is too experienced to make so many mistakes imo, unless he is trying to become derp cleared on purpose.
He could vote Nut earlier, but he did it when it was already clear she will flip.

I guess? I just didn’t see that in the games he quoted. There’s soooo much stumbling over skateboards and stepping on legos in the playroom

Day 5: A Visit to the Falconer

Today y’all, we visited a falconer. Interestin’ timing. Wouldn’t you say?

We interacted with two falcons, a vulture, and a barn owl.

Here’s Eloh with that there barn owl I just mentioned:

We also saw a kunekune pig and a little goat that would jump on the picnic tables and help herself to people’s lunches!

On top of that, we saw many different kinds of eggs. Lots of things were for sale, including shirts, ice cream, canned drinks, snacks, and even some goats. But there weren’t no prices on them eggs. They said “free range eggs,” and the lack of a hyphen might mean they didn’t cost nothin’, but I didn’t put any in my pockets just in case. I ain’t no lawyerin’ type.

Anyway, falcon45ca has a red tail from getting’ paddled.

Spoiler: show

It is now Night 5. You have until 7pm ET to submit your PMs.

oh it's a gAME ENDING WINCON?!?!? WHAT LMAO

**http://www.last.fm/user/nutella23** · #2770

damn i'll never know if my team could've pulled that through

#2771

AHHHHHHHHHGHHH!!!!!!!

Omg

#2772

I’m so sorry Abby

#2773

I truly cannot believe it and both teams played an incredible game this year.

#2774

(Im literally never ever going to be able to claim 3P again)

#2775

the size of the apology that I (we?) owe Abby would bankrupt a small town

#2776

fucking christ

#2777

I literally think the stars aligned for this victory. The only way it could’ve been different is voting me out day 4 instead of Sig

#2778

Who was the final mafia?

#2779

I'll be around in a couple of hours after work to answer questions.

#2780

Huh. Well then.

Gg sprit! I’m working on processing this, but this one feels particularly rough based on the effort and calculated risk. I really didn’t think there was any way any role would be able to win with this many people remaining.

So

huh

#2781

I really do wish I was the role I was claiming, I think the lack of information was the nail for town because I did play this game as a town player (in my mind)

And realistically if mafia had killed any of my marks (porscha, Abby, cape90) then I would not have won.

It was literally because you had died that enabled my win

Yep- the mafia ultimately decided (based on their kill) if sprityo won today.

#2784

I have so many thoughts, but I don’t think they’ll amount to anything positively consequential.

So for now, I will go to statistics and point out that this is the second time in a row GoC was one by a single independent! So that’s neat. Fitting that it was a role from leetic’s game, as he won as the SK last year.

#2785

So,,,who was mafia?

#2786

@nutella ^^^^^

I'm working, so anything I say here will be spotty for a couple of hours.

pyxxy and Wilgy were the remaining ones.

#2793

more accurately Abby being silenced was probably the biggest advantage swing towards me living that day

#2794

I also owe a big apology again to @Roxy who was entirely right to suspect me

Woohoo

I think the crux of my frustration is my lack of agency. If I’m told I’m vanilla, great. I’ll do my best and solve with limited knowledge. But no one was vanilla. If I’m told I’m a power role in a role madness game, great. Then to learn that my role is a 12-pronged joat where I have no agency on what I do with my power? Ok, that’s annoying, but at least I’m doing something maybe. Now to learn even further that not only did I not have agency to pick what I do, I’ve been shooting blanks since SVS died because she determines my abilities? That feels real bad. It appears the only power I used in this game was silencing Long Con and Abbi. Pretty negative utility lol.

But I appreciate the BTSC I had with pyxxy and especially Long Con. Even tho it amounted to nothing. Yall were great.

#2796

Hey my risk assessment post was correct lmao.

So my solve was right! Well that feels better at least.

#2798

I was really scared that mafia did in fact have a role cop (hence the tsp kill) and that I would be called out

#2799

Good game Sprit.

3p does it again! Syndicate is canonically too nice confirmed.

Battle of the Bands
Battle of the Bands Emcee
One Day, you may force two individuals to choose a piece of music (select your targets by PM to the Host). The music will be submitted to the Host. The following Night phase will be OPEN, and people will vote on the music preferred. The winner will be off the poll the next Day. The loser is eliminated. The individuals you choose for the process will be unable to post during the Night phase. This process can only occur once.

The Avengers
Cable
With your latent time-travel ability, you will restart Day 3 if the Day 3 poll victim is a civilian. Day 3.2 will immediately follow. If you are the victim of Day 3, this power will fail.
As an expert marksman, you also have one Night kill.

Monopoly
Dice
You are dice. You have two functions.
First, you resolve ties. Rank each player from most suspicious to least suspicious by the end of Day 0. You may update this list anytime as long as you are alive.
Second, each Night, I need a number 2-12. No rolling the same number twice!

Chance
Each Night, you choose a target. One of the following effects will occur.
2. Go to Jail: Your target is both blocked and protected.
3. Advance to Go: Your target is gone! Off the poll the next Day, that is.
4. Pay each Player $50: Your target’s received votes the next Day are divided up among everyone else (including you).
5. Get out of jail free: You target is issued a one-use self-protection ability.
6. Take a ride on the Reading: You will get to read your target’s role (but not alignment).
7. Take a walk on the Boardwalk: You will enjoy a stroll with your target in BTSC the next Day.
8. Advance to St. Charles Place: Your target will get lost there for a whole Day, unable to vote or post the next phase.
9. Pay poor tax of $15: Your target’s vote is worthless the next Day. Your target will be uninformed of this.
10. Advance token to nearest utility: Your target gains a one-shot tracking ability.
11. Go back three spaces: Your target’s vote is worth -3 the next Day. Your target will be uninformed of this.
12. Make general repairs on all your property: Your target is busy and therefore blocked.

Duck Hunt
CRT Television Set
Each Night, you track your target.

Sims
[Insertnamehere]
Sul sul! You are a Sim! By the end of Day 0, provide a name, a description of yourself, and choose two strengths and two weaknesses listed below!
Strengths
Inspired: If a mafia member dies, your vote the next Day is worth +1.
Convincing: You role block your target each Night.
Quick Learner: You will role check your Day 1 vote. This will not indicate alignment.
Uplifting: Each Night, you can choose to remove someone from the next poll.
A Trustworthy Friend: *Secrets*
The first civilian who targets you on Day 1 or Day 2 gains permanent BTSC with you beginning Day 3.

Weaknesses
Prone to Illness: You begin each Day phase with one vote against you.
Scared of Confrontation: Each time someone votes against you, you must reply to that person’s post with the vote tags and make a heartfelt apology for any wrongdoing you may have caused. Each instance of failing to do so will add one vote against you that Day. Note that if a person votes you but doesn't use vote tags, this doesn't apply.
Meddlesome: You can redirect someone’s target, but whatever it is also happens to you.
Needy: You will die if no one targets you at all after two consecutive Nights.
Terrible Hygiene: *Secrets*
The first civilian who targets you will be told you are mafia.

Cardcaptor Sakura
Clow Reed
As a talented magician, you have a number of mystical cards at your disposal. You may use one card each Night. Each card may only be used once.
The Assist: Your vote the next Day will be worth 2.
The Reveal: You learn the role (not alignment) of the one for whom you last voted.
The Forge: You craft magical armor that protects you from death that same Night.
The Cull: You select four names. These are the only names that will appear on the next Day’s poll.
The Tally: You may learn what the actual vote count was in the most recent poll.
The Legacy: You prepare a message (sent to the Host privately) on the Night you select this card. If you are killed, your message will be relayed to the thread.

US National Parks
Great Smoky Mountains
Each Night, you will cast a blue, smoky haze over your target. If your target has BTSC, that entire BTSC group will be disrupted for the next phase. You will not learn if you were effective.

Kagemusha
Shadow Warrior
At the expense of your own life, you can protect your Night target.

Help! Hostage Host!
Host Hostage
On one Night only, you may elect to take the Host hostage. What happens then?
*Secrets*
No other Night actions will be processed, resulting in a mass role block. However, this will not affect the mafia’s factional Night kill.

Fallout: New Vegas
Arcade Gannon
You are enthusiastic about helping people. To this end, you research medicine and supply others with stimpaks. Each Night, your target will be protected from death.

Securitron
Tasked with patrolling the area and stopping unauthorized hooliganism, you will block your target each Night.

Mafia

Taskmaster
With your photographic reflexes, you will be able to use the Night action of any civilian who was eliminated that Day (if applicable). If more than one civilian is eliminated on the same Day, you will have to choose. You will be informed specifically what you can do each Night.

Leporidae
Zombie Alaskan Hare
You love to nibble and nibble…and murder. If you are voted out, you will be able to bite one of your voters. Your victim will become infected and die at the conclusion of the next Day phase.

Bread
Yeast
Your Night target will have a rising vote count, one vote against him of her tacked on each phase. Once your victim is deceased, you may curse another with your yeasty goodness.

Rocko’s Modern Life
Peaches
Each Night, you lure someone to Heck. This is temporary BTSC that will last for the next phase. Unbeknownst to your target, your victim will also be blocked that Night if you choose to inflict this additional punishment.

Wolfwalkers

Wolfwalker
Each Night, you claw or bite your target, infecting him or her with lycanthrope. If you are still alive and you and your wolfpack outnumber those you have not marked, you alone win. Because of your reflexes, the first Night kill attempt on you will fail.
Suggested fake claim:
Lord Protector
You have one Night kill. It will only work against a “wolf.”
You have one protection. It will only work against a civilian.

Workout

Personal Trainer
You do not care about morality. You care about RESULTS. You are here to whip these doughnuts into SHAPE.
On Day 0, assign a weight to each participant (excluding yourself). The weight begins at 100 pounds and increases in 5-pound intervals.
For each full phase (Day and Night) you survive, the threshold of victory moves one pound in your favor.
You win dead or alive if the average weight of the class at endgame is LOWER than the initial average weight of the class (which is 140).

Up Against The Wall!
