Darkest Hour

nutella moved to the control room. It was time to fire the laser gun for the 5th time.

The pressure was huge. People were starting to question if she was fit for that job. Some were saying the alien kills in the frist two nights were flukes. Some even said it was fake news by some political group to make her look competent. But nutella knew she had made good calls at the time. She had the skill. She just needed to find it again.

Well, she would have to keep looking.


dunya (Bunker) was killed.

Night 5 Begins!

Basically need to try and keep the people Nutella want alive tomorrow alive through the night and everyone needs at least 1 save they can credibly claim to aliens that they hold going into night 6. After night 5 I don't think we should confirm any saves at all to anyone if it confirms you have no bunker saves left.

Not going to push any plans unless Nutella wants one since I suspect paranoia is high everywhere. I will say though that Epi and I are almost never aliens together because of Sabie flip. It's almost mechanically confirmed. Basically it's confirmed to non-pedants. This means you can get by on 2 of us for tonight if you don't want to pick one person. I would be scared to pick 1 person in your shoes.

I'm getting a bit scared of epi again ngl simply because all the world's keep shrinking. Nutella keep telling me that's literally impossible so I don't start posting again on why they could be.

Alison let me know if you still lock townread epi. I'm assuming yes because from your perspective it's carotenoid/TSP?

It doesn't change much and it's a strategy that require a minimum of trust so nah, whatever.

If Nutella can bet the game that epi is town, I think we can mechanically force some interesting results. It's like a pseudo dayshot in the night.

We can force a no kill, or they can only kill your one selected person at night.

That's the benefit of betting the game on 1 person being town.

I think it's worth the gamble in our situation.

Do we gain another shot if nobody dies over night 5?

Someone double-check my idea.

Are we still forced to hit alien in day 6 or insta lose?

Well okay, to be fair, we insta loose N6 if we don't hit an alien before unless aliens do a level 5 bad play.

I'm just gonna work it out on mobile.

4 bunkers alive now in night 5.
If nobody dies it's 4 bunkers alive on day 6.
Nutella shoots a bunker. 3 bunkers left.
3 bunkers alive going into night 6.

Why do we lose? Didn't this buy an extra misshot if aliens no kill?

But it would still be technically possible for the protections to shake out.


It's not likely but it's not a literal auto loss.

Right so 2 KP on night 6.3 bunkers. Can't kill 3 bunkers and can't kill Nutella. Town tries to protect Nutella and land a save.

Day 7 Nutella gets a shot. If we hit mafia and landed a save the prev night, we get another shot day 8 but that's it.

if we misshoot then we probably get another shot but there's no backing off. We have to be dead right. If we miss on day 7 it's more forgiving.

So let's say epi protects Nutella.
Everyone else chain.
One person unprotected.

Means aliens can only kill 1 person or no kill in night 5.

I think killing is better for aliens because if they kill tonight and we ML on day 6, aliens auto win I think.

So we get a pseudo shot in night 5 by chaining. Right? Out the scunmiest person unprotected overnight and see if they die.

If not they prob mafia unless wifom

Not saying the chain is good, just let's try and help Nutella get an alien on day 6. No point having bunker saves if we run out of bunkers.

If I made mistake somewhere ideally point it out early so can fix it before end of phase.

It gets an extra ML I think if they no kill.

If they kill, we reduced Poe.

We spend a LOT of saves as a trade off along with Nutella needing to bet the farm on one saver
