The Flash: Battle for the Gem Cities (Day 12)

[Turnip Head]

The worst part about waiting for the lynch post is the fact that DREAM clearly has not checked in yet to watch the looks on all our faces

[Bass_the_Clever]

Okay, but it was just yesterday that Llama vouched and unvouched for a few people with just as strong words, didn't he? And even if Pied Piper info is in play, it's still not a guaranteed read, and even if it somehow was he would have said something much earlier in the lynch. I simply read it as Llama phoning it in for this lynch, tbh.

I just think we should take Llama's opinions with a grain of salt and treat them for just what they are: Llama's opinions. I was thinking FZ might have appreciated the point I'm making here most of all, which is why I'm asking her about it.

If you've got any suggestions of who we should listen to aside from llama, I'm all ears.

I was thinking about listening to Bass and Timmer

I think that would be wise.

[Long Con]

And that means lynching Metalmarsh, is that correct?

[Marmot]

And that means lynching Metalmarsh, is that correct?

That is a bad idea.

[Marmot]

I'm going on an impromptu backpacking trip this weekend. I'll probably not have internet access while I'm away, but I will be back on Sunday.

[thellama73]

My suspicions should not be interpreted as vouches. That's not my style. When I think someone is bad, I'm likely to say "That person is bad!" Doesn't mean I know more than you.

Day 6: The Thrill of the Hunt

DREAM ducked and weaved through the forest bordering Central City, her heart beating rapidly as a crowd of bloodthirsty pursuers tracked her down.

She cursed the Flash's name as she ran right into a trap. She had come so close to destroying the city he swore to protect; but alas, her mission would end at the bottom of a pit.

The townsfolk hurreidly shoveled the earth back into the makeshift hole they'd made, burying poor DREAM alive.

After the deed was done, a sly villain who lurked in the shadows celebrated eliminating the opposition. They were about to become even more brazen.


DREAM has been lynched. She was Gorilla Grodd. Grodd's kill has been inherited...

You have 29 hours to PM me (Night will end at ~4PM tomorrow).

Wouldn't it have been awesome if my kills died with me?
Grodd luck, my heir!

[DREAM]

OMG I just read I was buried alive...that's like my real life nightmare!

[Marmot]

Yay, nice result.

But I don't like the sound of a more brazen opponent either.

[Marmot]

Anyway, have a good weekend y'all. If you all really want to lynch me, go for it. But I'd still rather be alive when I get back.

[Long Con]

Inherited kill, eh? See ya, Grodd! Welcome back to the cruel world of Mafia, DREAM!

[thellama73]

MONKEY GRODD IS DEAD!

LONG LIVE MONKEY GRODD!

[Long Con]

I never really took the game seriously when I knew there was a freakin' monkey playing anyway. A freakin' monkey! And that's terrible.

[thellama73]

I never really took the game seriously when I knew there was a freakin' monkey playing anyway. A freakin' monkey! And that's terrible.

Amen.

[Sophie]

Yes! Great result! Too bad it has been inherited

I dont think we shoul Lynch mm, he seems civvie, imo

Rabbit, on the other hand...

[DREAM]

[Black Rock]

Yay, nice result.

But I don't like the sound of a more brazen opponent either.

Maybe Soneji got it.

[Bass_the_Clever]

Yes! Great result! Too bad it has been inherited

Rabbit, on the other hand...

How does MM seem civvie?

[thellama73]

Yes! Great result! Too bad it has been inherited

Rabbit, on the other hand...

How does MM seem civvie?

The way he is always helping and never killing civvies.

Llama who do you think we should lynch?

[Draconus]

Awesome outcome! Byeee DREAM! And great to hear that we created another serial killer

[Long Con]

Did anyone get a movement PM result tonight? I didn't. And I just got to a place that's something rather than nothing - I wanna see what it does!

[Bass_the_Clever]

I didn't get a movement PM yet either.

[Draconus]

Nope

[DharmaHelper]

Me either you guys.

Night 6 - I Blame Rube Goldberg

The adventurous criminal mastermind looking to have their revenge on the Gem Cities was poised to strike. They prepared to kill from the shadows, eliminating a hated opponent.

However, as the killer wound up and hurled a large knife at his target, a balloon popped...no...exploded...? The small blast wounded the intended target, but left them far more alive than the assailant had planned.

Meanwhile, the knife was flung back into the killer's direction. They thought fast, deflecting it. The blade was hurled up into the air and flew an unusual, almost cartoonish distance through the night sky. It's trajectory dropped and it fell into the heart of a passerby, tragically minding her own business before being struck down.


Spacedaisy has been killed.

It is now Day 7. You have 48 hours to find out who threw the wacky knife!

[Turnip Head]

Rest in peace Daisy

[Turnip Head]

I think Plunder is dead and that whoever inherited Grodd's NK is not killing in favor of the Old Rogues, otherwise they would not have killed Daisy.

Llama, did you ever check Roxy to corroborate Bass' story about her?

[Turnip Head]

I voted the marmot for now, he said he should be back from his backpedaling trip tomorrow so that leaves him plenty of time to participate

[Long Con]

Llama, did you ever check Roxy to corroborate Bass' story about her?

I agree, which is why we're getting this mystery killer instead of Plunder. Probably the New Rogues inherited Grodd's kill to make up for their lack of one, or something.

[Long Con]

A reread of the night post... it seems as though Daisy wasn't the intended target tonight. The intended target had a balloon pop/explosion that sent the knife back at the killer... who then deflected it to Spacedaisy.

So, clearly the killer is Dharmahelper, in the Conservatory, with the Sadistic Grin.

[timmer]

So what do people think of Grodd's kill possibly going to Zoom? To me it makes the most sense to keep the Arch Villains kill in-house, as opposed to giving another one to the New Rogues, unless Plunder is dead?

As for today's lynch, I'm still inclined to distrust MM and think that's where we will find our Top.

[FZ.]

Sorry for not being around. A good friend killed himself (jumping off a building) and I'm devastated. Trying to do my best to catch up, but I'm going to the funeral today and I don't know how much I'll feel like playing today or tomorrow

I read the night story and thought maybe what happened could be related to this:

The Trickster – The most inexperienced Rogue and a notorious prank enthusiast. Leaves a “trap” on one player during even nights. If that player is ~ar~e~e~, the a~~~~~ ~s re~erse~.

I don't know if someone already solved this, but I read it as: "If that player is targeted, the action is reversed".

So it made me wonder whether the Trickster trapped the victim of the killer tonight, and the action was reversed. If that's what happened, then it means Daisy could have been a killer

[FZ.]

And TH, I'm not sure what it is you asked me exactly when you asked why am I putting so much faith in llama, but if you're referring to the night, I forgot there were no actions that night, sorry.

I think you're right, someone definitely tried to kill The Trickster last night. Not entirely sure if SD was that killer, as the post writes her as a passerby minding her own business, but that could be just fluff writing for obfuscation.

[Draconus]

RIP Daisy

FZ, I read the mystery phrase the same way. I doubt Daisy was the killer, though. I think "innocent bystander" is exactly what she was in that scenario. I think it was quite literal in meaning that the killer deflected his own knife.
I also agree that the trickster could have set the "trap" on himself, but the may not necessarily be the case.

[S~V~S]

So what do people think of Grodd's kill possibly going to Zoom? To me it makes the most sense to keep the Arch Villains kill in-house, as opposed to giving another one to the New Rogues, unless Plunder is dead?

This makes total sense to me. Looking back, he was kinda annoyed when we tried to find alternatives to "Timmer" during the Timmer curse, didn't he? And I have never been forced by the Top, and if that role was connected to Timmer, I think I would have been.

I am going to trust Bass, who I am like super sure is not bad. Voting MM.

Based on that word "reversed" I am not sure that that is exactly how it works, I think the Tricksters TARGET was the attempted kill, and it was deflected to that persons target, perhaps? I have been wondering about this since the Bullz kill. The vagueness of that post made me think there was a deflection role of some kind.

[S~V~S]

Also, if it is true that MM is bad, and not you, I am sorry I have been kinda dogging you.

[S~V~S]

Ebwop, Also, TIMMER, lol.

Yes, absolutely... the Trickster wasn't targeted, the Trickster's target was targeted. Either way, we've quasi-confirmed an Old Rogue still out there.

However... The Top: Night kills targeted at him will be redirected to a random player.

The Top is our new killer.

[timmer]

If the host post points to the top being the new killer, my vote goes to MM, I think it's the best chance at hitting that role.

[DFaraday]

Jailbreak pls

[Turnip Head]

And TH, I'm not sure what it is you asked me exactly when you asked why am I putting so much faith in llama, but if you're referring to the night, I forgot there were no actions that night, sorry.

That's not what I meant.

What did you mean then?

[Turnip Head]

I meant why did you interpret Llama's tone as more than just his opinion?

[FZ.]

I meant why did you interpret Llama's tone as more than just his opinion?

Because he came in after Dream had already more than a few votes, and said it was Dream was the right way to go. After he said before, he doesn't like info dumping, or something in those lines, I thought that he decided to finally put his own thoughts and vote in a way that won't influence us. But I forgot that he couldn't have had that information that night anyway.

But that's kind of my point... Llama doesn't want us to be influenced by his vote, but you used that as a reason to be influenced by his vote. Just seemed off to me, given the specific players that are involved.

What do you mean by the underlined bit?
