I guess the "I might not be town better shoot me just in case" strategy is like the much calmer version of the good ol' "Do it bitch" line haha.

just quietly how great of a concept is the potato pass

why the fuck don't i ever get a potato pass?

I like potatoes

i'm growing potatoes! a shitload of them. i'll show you all if they actually come out good lol.

Man I wish I had the patience to grow my own veggies.

I do believe they just burrowed under the door enough to squeeze in... they ignored it til it was obvious that there was food in there and then got busy

Gotta lay down chicken wire on the floor bb.

The rabbits ate half of my stuff before I did that. Fucking rabbits.

[protocultures]

proto, why would nutella shoot you again? Explain it to me in a sentence.

Shooting into Nutella night 2 protectors. Dizzy TSP Dunya Proto.

What did you think of my criticism of that plan, re: Rogue Elements and Alien Risk Assessment?

There are arguments for that sure, but you didn't explain the merits and likelihood of aliens picking that path in a way that convinced me it was more likely.

You pushing out of the savers indicates you may have a partner in there like TSP or Dunya. If I had to pick one, probably TSP for you specifically.

Unless it's because you would just prefer to shoot Sabie for Tutuu's sins.

i kinda wanna play video mafia with proto tho.

do we get turns talking or talk over each other?

I like video mafia but you need to ruin your sleep schedule to play it. I don't play video mafia anymore and am getting my fix here.

If you want to play realtime text/audio mafia that can be arranged. There are games that run at EU friendly hours.

My non forum game is different than here though.

[protocultures]

hi

i kinda wanna play video mafia with proto tho.

There's a video mafia?

Search "daily mafia" on twitch.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

I'm in for video mafia tbh.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Though I'd rather do with people I already know.

Mini Mafia is a bit less upsetting tbh

nutella can I take day 4 off plz i'm dyin over here

Can I predict Mac and Nanook townread eachother on day 4 and then continue to ignore eachother?

Alison can probably host a mini one for syndicats on discord ;p

Also down for audio on the weekend.

Like I'm trying to be less shy lately but chatting on video with random people is a bit too scary.

Same tbh. Plus it's more fun with my friends <3

Survival

After Dizzy's death, there was a serious argument among the politicians and prominent figures of humanity. What that laser gun plan a good idea? Weren't the aliens just tricking them? Maybe they had already gone away, since the previous night did not see as much violence?

Humans are complex beings, especially in the 21th century, and getting then to agree on something is almost impossible.

But on that night, they were again reminded of their most primal instinct: survival. Because the aliens launched a full scale attack and killed a lot of people.

And the disagreement was again replaced for the widespread conviction that the only thing they could do was fight.

The laser cannon started charging for another shot.

Long Con (Bunker) was killed.

Day 4 Begins!

Well.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

When you think about it the double no kill means we’re actually basically at D3, otherwise known as pre-nanook locks in time.


(Video mafia with syndicaters sounds fun, I’d love to play with you guys and gals!)

[dunya]

Rip LC.

I'm going to sleep. Will assess stuff...tomorrow

I was isoing Dunya to see what her LC angle was and see they flipped town. Assume I don't need to reply to that now.

Mac is in POE if game doesn't end after savers die. Nanook I townread. I just remember a weird interaction between Mac and Nanook where they agreed to ignore eachother and reconvene day 3/4. I thought it might be potential partner interaction to justify no partner interaction.

I didn't save epi btw. I just wanted to reduce POE but leave epi alive. I still have 3 bunker saves.

Aliens NOT no killing again makes me think they aren't pushing an agenda of keep POE wide and makes me want to kill into TSP, Dunya, Proto more.

YOU ARE IN TSP DUNYA PROTO. I think Dunya can be independently scummy not considering the mechanics but I’m changing my mind a bit from her night three talk and the LC kill points away from that.

I know I am in the list. What was dunyas night three talk you reference here. Dunya said a lot on N3. Not sure what conclusions you draw from the LC kill. That confuses me tbh.

Huh I wasn't expecting this night kill
Hmn I don't know who are the last two anymore

[Epignosis]

like, people in nutella's poe. they aren't surviving three phases. better use protects on epi/proto tbh.

like, it's reached a point in the game where coordinating a little bit wouldn't hurt because we can catch the bad guys if we do.

When the math teacher I work with tells me the bells are off, the bells are off.

proto says the bells are off and I've woken up and I believe him. Set those fuckers back 37 seconds.

Nobody needs to protect me. I don't want that.

Nobody needs to protect protoman. Proto doesn't want that (sorry if protoman bothers you- Megaman character).

This is trying to burn up protections and now that I realize proto isn't a scoundrel and honestly believe that shit, I'm all aboard.

i also kinda believe TSP is town from how he kept asking if anyone used their bunker save on someone who isn't nutella yesterday. seemed really damn authentic.

as such, i'm leaning towards this was all wifom and the mafia literally skipped a kill or tried to kill nutella anyway, with the hopes of creating this 4 player elimination game. we know dizzy was town, i know i'm town, i know proto is town and i feel tony is town.

epi is town.
sabie is town.

my poe goes back to:

long con's "i saved" epi on night 1 also seems...authentic. but i have to check what LC reacted when Rej claimed to have protected epi on night 1 now. it makes a big difference in his reaction imo.
nanook comes back into my poe for pure wifom and agreeing that eliminating us 4 is a good idea.
Mac because he doesn't wanna figure shit out
Alison because she's my biggest scum lean atm
Carot i've spoken about and waffled on a lot, but can't remove her from the pool though the soneji/rej stuff is almost open wolfing lol. so idk, least ready to shoot carot.

I can't even post one time about this without being done.

"long con's "i saved" epi on night 1 also seems...authentic. but i have to check what LC reacted when Rej claimed to have protected epi on night 1 now. it makes a big difference in his reaction imo."

Phony.

LC is dead now and you needed an ellipsis on him to call him good, and then there's a but.

I'll come back to this later. Right now I just want to get CAUGHT UP.

[Epignosis]

What if they scumread Rej for having a low postcount? Its kinda how you got scummier that one day you were afk.

i don't theorize on why a player could be scum reading another player. if they list them in bottom three of their POE and repeatedly shade them and pair them with our flipped mafia, they should have made it OBVIOUS why they scum read them. otherwise, this looks like distancing to me.

I am less inclined to suspect rej due to his admission that he protected Epi last night.

@Long Con but wifom

an alien saying they protected someone who was universally town read by the thread in case they get nkd is going to sit well in people's minds than him coming in and saying he didn't do anything, is still behind in the thread, short on time, etc. right?

WIFOM is always a possibility. Rej insinuates the idea that he has protections into our minds.

I did not use my protect last night.

are u sure you didn't protect epi?

I'm feeling slow, why ask this?

uh, rej? ring any bells? it was a joke. now i explained a joke and it's lame. ;p

Ok, sorry... I mean, everyone is asking everyone to reveal what they did last night, and I just got caught up and shared my non-action. I didn't get it because I'm, like, one of the only players who hadn't reveled it yet, and you didn't make the joke on any of them. I thought it was personally directed at me, wasn't sure if it was Rej-related shade. Or psychic vision, since...

Spoiler: show

I did protect Epi the first night.

so this is the series that is relevant. i definitely think LC can be soneji and rej's teammate.

his first instinct was to defend rej, but decides against it based on thread mood towards rej so he throws an accusation at rej. why didn't he back it up with "i think rej is town because i saved epi n1 too"? because it's fake, that's why.

when i threw that joke to LC, it alerted him. look at his reaction "why ask this?" basically: what do you know? what are you implying? he wants to know what i mean. am i catching on to them being teammates? i mean, the game setup is clear, it's not like i visited LC at night and saw he visited epi.

LC is lying. if he did indeed protect Epi at night 1, he would have shown more sympathy and understanding towards rej. instead, he threw him under the bus just like he hammered JJJ in ziggy. i can't believe this is the reaction of someone who townmelded with someone else.

dunya gtfo

I love you but just...go

[Epignosis]

Alison and Carotte being yellow probably actually means they're town and Epi and LC being yellow probably means at least one of them is mafia

I don't think that's a good conclusion. I think we're both town. Look at Epi's entrance to today, is his Soneji analysis illegitimate? Is he manipulating? I judge it to be genuine town using a D1 mafia elim for solid analysis. Also, I'm town too, bank on it and I promise no disappointment.

this is another instance where he is trying to manipulate epi into town reading him imo. "why does one of epi and LC have to be an alien, epi looks town, right? and so am i, we're both town"

also a good example of how he plays with words. look at the words he uses when he makes us think of epi (someone who thinks is genuine). "is it illegitimate?" "is he manipulating?"

negative words used to describe someone genuine to cause us to reasses.

LC did not mention soneji even once before he flipped.

i need to check soneji's mentions for LC actually.

Who were you trying to convince with this? nutella or yourself?

[Epignosis]

Dizzy flipping town kind of ruined things in my head. It was supposed to be Dizzy and Tony and we all go home and chew bubblegum.

So you're not a math genius who has this all planned out?

[Epignosis]

I mean, what I really believe, is that Epignosis didn't waste one of his valuable protects on Night 1. Him saying it was enough, I hope that I'm right, because that would be awesome... we'll find out after the game. I mean, it should be a big part of the game, claiming one thing in the thread, and doing another, to mess with the Aliens. I get that there's a Bunker Plan that everyone should follow, but that doesn't preclude the temptation to become a rogue element in order to gain advantage later in the game.

Is the plan to kill a specific three players in order really that solid? Does it consider rogue elements and the risk calculations that may be happening in the Alien camp?

I flirted with the idea of Epi being a 5heads pretending to be a 3head ages ago. They would do exactly this type of play you suggest. Its kind of what Alison did with epi as well. Think they are scummy and then townread them assuming they are doing some advanced strategy. In my deepest of hearts, I I hope so (because thats so much more awesome), but I wouldnt bet money on it. The problem is that by saying it, it gives Epi the opportunity to do it and the idea (if they didnt already).

I am all for lying closer to the endgame when every bunker save counts and we might need to bluff. Early game I dont think its particularly good to lie/bluff town - again, I could be wrong.

My kill 3 plan - assumes aliens dont value keeping POE wide over taking out bunkers. If my premise is wrong, my proposal is bad.

I have been asking people up and down to discuss potential merits. In addition to merits, perception of merits, because if its close or not that clear, aliens might just reach another conclusion anyway. Havent managed to get anyone to bite yet.

Also, I am committed to the plan now since I pushed it and someone within the 4 died, and it looks scummy AF if I get a kill within the 4 and then deflect off the plan.

I havent been convinced the plan is bad and nobody is trying to explain why.

Aliens value POE wide over taking out bunker saves. Thats the argument I would need to be moved on specfically. Also because if there IS scum in the 3, and I abandon the plan, I will feel pretty bad, and I like being able to look at myself in the morning.

Now I get to be in your shoes.

5heads?
3heads?

I understand the references as they might have existed 10 years ago. Your meaning doesn't exactly fit. I know it's Twitch shit. Still doesn't help me understand what you're saying here.

[MacDougall]

someone with a fivehead has a brain too big for a regular fourhead get it?

therefore a threehead is a small brain

[Epignosis]

Yeah, culture jumped the shark a long time ago.

[Epignosis]

i am pretty sure dizzy in their grave is telling you to abort this fucking plan lol.

Unless nutella decides proto's plan is shite, I'm abiding by it.

[Epignosis]

Well, I am going to do something uncharacteristic.

I basically think Epi is now so hard town now that it may as well be mod confirmed and I am locking in a save for Epi, so please dont stack saves on them.

You are a wild one.

I only wish you had done this without announcing it first. Then you make aliens question things.

But I see you. Good play.

[Epignosis]

Epi/Proto alien scum theater firming up in the betting market

Fade that.

[Epignosis]

Though I'd rather do with people I already know.

Story of my life.
