Only one item may be purchased per night.Long Con wrote:Ok, Items... specifically the ones which can be bought, Bananas and Grog. Can more than one be bought at once? If Stan gets the Shovel, then he'll have 30 Po8 (Pieces of Eight). Can he immediately spend 28 Po8 and buy fourteen Grog (at half price) and slam them down on a player, ensuring their lynch? Maybe even better, he could buy a bunch of Bananas, and save them for a rainy day, and never get lynched. It doesn't look like there's any lynch shenanigans among the baddies, so it's all Bananas and Grog.
That's for them to know.Long Con wrote:What exactly do the Pirate Leaders know? What is there that Civvies and/or Cannibals do not know? Maybe they get to know when someone buys something, or the details of Stan's dealings or Carla's fight results.

He's more like a thief who pays 2 gold for whatever they have. If they have nothing, he keeps his gold.Long Con wrote:Stan - His role says he can "offer players 2 pieces of eight for an item which they must trade to him." They must. Does that mean he can force the Head of the Navigator to sell his Necklace for 2 Po8? Does Stan have to know they possess the item, asking for a specific one, or is he more like a thief who pays 2 Po8 for whatever they have?

Hey Snow Dog, what's up buddy? Are you bad?
Mostly. I feel comfortable enough with townreads on you/Mac/Quin, which, if they are correct, gives me a 41% chance of hitting a baddie if I throw drunk darts at the rest of the playerlist.

I think that's a remnant from an earlier draft of the game. The civvies need the pirates and cannibals dead to win. If only Herman, the Head, and the Cannibals are left alive, the game will end and the cannibals will win.DFaraday wrote:Llama:
The role post says the civvies only need Lechuck, Bob, and the Cannibals dead to win. Does that mean the game will end if the other two baddies are still alive?
Also, the civvies need the cannibals dead, but the cannibals can win even if Herman Toothrot and Head of the Navigator are alive. Does this mean that the game will end if any cannibals are alive and only Herman and Head are remaining for the civvies?

The thing that I like about Quin is the self-vote; not sure he'd do it as mafia when there's a chance he locks down on his vote on himself the entire day and makes himself that much easier to lynch. As town, he's not really expecting to get lynched at all and he doesn't want to fuck over a townie accidentally, so it makes more sense.MovingPictures07 wrote:Nachomamma8 wrote:Mostly.

I can dig the town read on Quin as well. I think I need to see just a bit more from him though; hopefully he can provide more thoughts soon. I also need to see his mafia game. He's a ridiculously solid townie, but I'm not sure I've ever seen him as mafia, which scares me.

Did I do something to offend you?Snow Dog wrote:I don't like nachos.
I mean if he's scum he's doing it with the expectation that someone will have the same thought process (or because he straight up doesn't give a fuck); seems kind of wonky for him to expect people to think like me and showing that sort of spirit period is the type of thing that at least earns a D1 pass from me, especially in a slow game like this.MovingPictures07 wrote:There's a lot of WIFOM there, but that makes sense I think.Nachomamma8 wrote:The thing that I like about Quin is the self-vote; not sure he'd do it as mafia when there's a chance he locks down on his vote on himself the entire day and makes himself that much easier to lynch.

It seems like there's some disagreement over whether this is a good or bad move. I find it rash; why vote solely for that purpose when there's still over 24 hours of daytime to go? Surely someone else would vote for suspicion reasons in that time, then report as to whether that vote was changeable. My gut says this is a convenient way for Quin to get out of voting for anyone else Day 1, and thus drawing early aggro.Quin wrote:I self-voted for the sake of figuring out whether they're changeable or not.

It might be a worthwhile gamble as a baddie so I don't discount it.Nachomamma8 wrote:The thing that I like about Quin is the self-vote; not sure he'd do it as mafia when there's a chance he locks down on his vote on himself the entire day and makes himself that much easier to lynch.

Trying to avoid voting someone D1 is not a big deal if you're still expressing suspicion of people; more often than not, people get more perturbed by calling them scummy than they do by simply voting them. A vote is more valuable to mafia early game than town; town don't know shit about shit, while mafia know exactly who they need to lynch to win and so making sure their vote is in a good place should be top priority on their list.Boomslang wrote:It seems like there's some disagreement over whether this is a good or bad move.
