That infraction system is amazingly broken.It was meant to discourage rules-breaking.
Hypothetical situation: Every single player posts a photo (and I mean photo, not screenshot) (harder to manipulate) of their role PM at the start of the game. Absolutely no punishment.
Edit: Hypothetical 2: every townie about to be lynched immediately edits 6 posts, gets 6 infractions, gets modkilled. Free lynch, no night!
It was meant to discourage rules-breaking.By declaring that players may cheat once before and once after death with relatively little penalty, and by weakening penalties almost across the board? Seems an odd way to discourage that.
Also, like the disclaimer above them says, those rules are not set in stone.True. Still, I strongly recommend using a standard mod discretion-based system with possible role-related modifications. Keep the power to quickly oust people self-confirming their townhood through rules violations. Keep the power to only warn in response to the minor inexperience/habit edits.
-No PMing other players. If you receive a PM from another player relating to this game, report it by PM to your local game moderator immediately (me). Players caught sending PMs to each other will receive an Infraction.So. If I got Scum alignment, I could share scumchat with everybody and not get immediately modkilled for ruining the game? Cool.
...
-Don't share [the scumchat] link with anyone who hasn't received it already from me, which falls under the same rule as no PMs.
In, for the time being. Is there a set number/upper limit of players you're going to have in the game?
Haha, there's X+1 spots, where X is the number of players who want to sign up. By which I mean there's no need to reserve, just sign up when I get permission to put it up. OP's all ready to go.
Is there a set number/upper limit of players you're going to have in the game?I'm just thinking a lower-limit of 9; no upper limit, because I doubt that there are that many interested players that I couldn't handle all the PMs in one day. ;P
Yes, but why would you do that? I mean, it would certainly count for not playing to win, as well, unless you somehow had a second alignment. So there's a second infraction, giving you a kick in the pants/powers, and there's the fact that town (or A town or third party player, if you PMed it to them) would now know who the scum were, which would mean you'd almost certainly be lynched, and have lost the game. It's within the rules of my Infraction system to do so, but it's still not something you want to do! ;)-No PMing other players.

[...]Shakerag has a reputation. :P
Flabort's High Powered Bring Your Own Role 2 (FHPBYOR2 for convenience, or FB2 for the lazy) is a Bring Your Own Role mafia with another twist thrown in. Like any standard Bring Your Own Role, when you sign up you PM me an idea; whether it's a phrase, a word, a wikipedia link, youtube video or song, a picture, a shakerag, a past mafia game, or a chapter of Worm, etc etc, whatever you like. I take that idea, and it becomes your role for this game. However, that's where the "Flabort's High Powered" twist comes in. You send me MORE THAN ONE idea! Players submit between 2 and 8 role ideas, and you obtain two of them at random as your roles (yes, plural). Any remaining roles are thrown into a mixing pot and randomly but evenly distributed to players as mini-roles. Your alignment is also separate from your roles; while one may be affected by any particular power, the other is unlikely to be affected by the same power.
Especially considering the Mafia legends that are signing up.Where?
Tiruin, 4maskwolf, Deus Asmoth...Hey, I'm a legend now!

I saw the NQT symbol shining from the spotlight off the roof of the precinct. Commissioner Flabort needs me!Yay!

Hey 4mask. I'm starting a Bastard mod after this game. It was one of your Bastard games that was my first, so I thought that was nice.Cool! Yeah, I remember that, you fake claimed a role even more ridiculous than the one I actually gave you and people almost bought it. You were a replacement, too. That was a well-played game by a lot of people.

Crap... I rolled a 2.I just broke my arm.Ow? Good luck on healing that.
If you only submitted 2 roles, then you are guaranteed to get those roles. If you submitted more than two, then the two you get that are for sure roles YOU submitted are random from that list you submitted. Less roles submitted means you're more likely to get the roles you wanted. More roles submitted means more craziness, and more chances to submit "negative" roles to stick other people with, but also more chance to shoot yourself in the foot if you choose to submit that kind of role.Seriously, how hard could it be to submit the full 8 roles?

Whoa whoa whoa, we're allowed to demand you give us certain ones of the roles we submit? :o

Yeah, I hear that. However, for me major life upheavals are likely to drive me MORE towards my escape (here) than away.

Eh, tumble's a little whiner. Seems he keeps getting KOd and forced back to consciousness. I think he's a ****y.
Nah, man. Seems I was created after the role pool was emptied out; don't matter, though, I can screw you over five ways to Sunday. Just take a look. As far as I know, though? Nah, I don't think I do. Possibly.
Quote from: Ragshake, Shakerag's Evil TwinYou've got that right, 31rotceh.
FoU: What's with the early interest in the roles, mang? There are frickin' eighty of the bastards. Perhaps not including the weird ass NPCs and spectator nonsense!True that. And I'm interested in the roles because they're what make this game so much different than normal.
Ah bugger it there are too many of you. The real fun is in all the role shenanigans, aye? I'm hungry.
31rotceh I torment you because I'm clearly evil, man. Mwahahahah. Oh, my wincon? Why would I reveal that so early on? Heheheh...
By the dubs, my pall weedy here? Can't talk, far as I know. Yeah, it's because I'm sitting on him. Yeah, I'm mean.

o inspect the truth of the whole "I have a role that stops everyone from winning" statement, how would you react? If you were scum, how would you change your gameplay? How about if you were a jester?Oh I see Ragshake... you can deface posts.
[/ scum. As for being a jester, I'm just glad that I'm not one.
For thse your truthteller ability on that if you have one.
Ragshake was here: Do you have as many roles as the rest of us? Do you come from someone's role?
How do you know that, OSG? I'll bet that YOU and TUMBLEWEED are MAFIA and IN CAHOOTS with each OTHER! You're just trying to THROW SUSPICION OFF OF HIM!I know that information because my role includes that information about him. Literally that's it.

Origamiscienceguy: I forgot to ask you a question earlier. So how about this: is there any other information about the Tumbleweed or Ragshake that you would care to share?I know nothing at all about Ragshake, and I have already said everything I know about the Tumbling Tumbleweed.
I have some information about the tumbling tumbleweed: It will resurrect every time it dies. So voting for it is pointless. Does anybody else have any information about it?Anope, sorry. I have information, but not that information.
4maskwolf: Do you have a post restriction that you are allowed to speak of?Wuba wub, wub wub wuba? Yes, yes I do, and I see no restriction in my role around my speaking of it. You should probably have already figured out what it is by now. If you haven't, then I can't help you.

Ah, wait, never mind. I misread 4maskwebadict's post as meaning "he has information on tumbleweed that directly differs from osg's claim". :v(and apparently contradictory information)Explain this, sil vous plait.
What's this nonsense about this "ragshake" person being "Shakerag's evil twin". I've played with Shakerag before, and there is no good in him. There is no possible way for ragshake to actually be the evil twin of that duo.
Just saying.
They are both evil twins, obviously. :PGo home Wuba you're drunk.
Yeah, but he's forced to follow the rules. :P The rules follow me. Plus I rock a wicked 'fro. O0
By the way, I actually have a truth teller ability.We'll just run 'em by FoU. We can then collectively verify if he's telling the truth.
And TDS was telling the truth about his "nobody can win" role.
Dangit.
~~~
To those who say I'm making myself a scum target, in a game where protections are useless: [REDACTED].
So does everybody agree that it is our best interest to try any and all methods to make sure TDS doesn't live?
Because I was somewhat startled by the whole "I have a role that prevents everybody from winning" thing.Mhm. I'll keep this in mind.
Okay, what exactly is it?So does everybody agree that it is our best interest to try any and all methods to make sure TDS doesn't live?
Yes, but not right now. Killing me off early makes it easier for the town to lose. Also, I have a power that can kill me.

I have a power with a 1/3 chance to kill me, a 1/3 chance to let me edit some posts, and a 1/3 chance to try to kill everyone.And that is the only way that you can die? And thus the only way that anybody can have a chance to win?
ORDEN
Mod question: Do role specifications take precedence over general rules? So, like, hypothetically, if a general rule was "nobody can use slang words, no exceptions" and your role said "you have to use American southernisms every post at no penalty", which one is valid?It depends on the role and the rule. If the rule states "this is an exception to the rule", then this one is definitely valid. In other cases, you would have to PM me to ask.
Ruh-roh. Sounds like TDS is in quite the pickle. Ahahahaha!
What the heck does Orden mean? Ah, nevermind, it's probably something evil that I'd like to steal; keep quite about that, 'kay? That way nobody'll try to steal it first. Eheheh. Mine. All mine.
4maskwolf: Any analysis to be posted about the public mechanics thus far?Alright, what I see from information so far:
Teneb and TolyK(and NQT): Same question.
TDS: How is your non-death worded, in general terms? "Cannot die", "cannot be attacked", how?
Anyway, exactly what do these 'boxes of Orden' do?You have two good options for learning about that:
Shakerag: You have an evil twin. Are you going to do something about that.That would depend on whether or not I -can- do something about it. For now, I think it's kind of hilarious.
WARNING: This post may trigger an infraction on my part but it's worth itYou're welcome.

Just saying.
TolyK: How much Shakeragian bullshit did you personally introduce into this game?I'm going to answer this question even though it's not mine. Because it's relevant.

So does any role I submit automatically make it Shakeragian? I'm not sure how this works. ???TolyK: How much Shakeragian bullshit did you personally introduce into this game?I'm going to answer this question even though it's not mine. Because it's relevant.
I submitted 8 roles. Half of those were shakeragian.
Hector13: how are you going to vary your gameplay for this obviously bastard game? (I mean, examine who is voting for you...)
kills of any sort have a 20% chance of failing (on top of any other chances) but bypass all protection abilities, and any other action has a 10% chance of turning into a kill.
Hector13: What question should I be asking you right now?
Are you interested in catching scum, or just screwing around? They are not mutually exclusive, but you seem to be focusing only on the latter. Furthermore, why spend all three votes on the same person?OSG with the triple vote. Yeehaw.Hector13 Hector13 Hector13
Whaaaaat? You see nothing...
4maskwolf: Any analysis to be posted about the public mechanics thus far?Way to go with being lazy with your questions. There isn't much to analyze that wasn't already. Not that there was much to begin with.
Teneb and TolyK(and NQT): Same question.
Can everybody claim their roles?This is a terrible idea, since an early massclaim aids only scum. Especially in outlandish setups like this one.
Teneb: Doesn't RVS seem even more pointless in a game like this?I used to be a firm believer in RVS, but now not so much. Yeah, it is pretty useless since it gives exactly zero benefits to a player, town or scum.

Since Hector will probably wonder, I got this info after my vote, not before.
Shakerag is a Jester
Not really helpful since there are three statements in that link. Can you trust whatever gave you that information?'Twas a day power. And it is a sane one. Let's pick the post apart:
Yes, but not right now. Killing me off early makes it easier for the town to lose. Also, I have a power that can kill me."Yes, but not right now." is very unlikely to be the lie, considering it was in response to a question about if we should lynch TDS.

Everyone, how likely are we to be able to trust this:Well, knowing full well that anything I say can totally be construed as WIFOM, I'd say that either someone has a power that can announce someone's role (i.e. a public day inspect) -OR- someone has a role that can make the mod post a message of his/her choice. Neither one seems terribly out of the question in a game like this.Shakerag is a Jester
Deus Asmoth has died! He was TownHuh. None of my roles in there.
So, two boxes left. The 'kill everyone', and 'powers'.PREEEEETY sure I have the Kill Everyone, but potentially not.
RIP DA.
Whoever has the second box should be looked at. I'm pretty sure it gives the "redact 5 posts" ability. Right TDS?)
TDS, can you kill yourself while targeting yourself?
Can you clearly state everything again/aggregate what you have stated about your wincon/death thing? Same goes for Teneb and everyone else with a strange wincon.
TDS, do you have anything that triggers on your getting targeted by an ability?
Not unvoting because I wanna see what happens next.
PREEEEETY sure I have the Kill Everyone, but potentially not.
TDS, can you kill yourself while targeting yourself?
I'll answer this soon.
Can you clearly state everything again/aggregate what you have stated about your wincon/death thing? Same goes for Teneb and everyone else with a strange wincon.I can only win when I die. I can only die when I win.
Huh.Any reason in particular for wanting me dead? Or just being your old scum self?
Awaiting DA to revive N4, I guess.
He can help kill DS or whoever, since Kryptonite.
Why?TDS, can you kill yourself while targeting yourself?I'll answer this soon.
flabort, if one player PM's another, is reporting an infraction honor-rule or not mandatory? Nothing of the sort has occurred, just asking.Well, I guess that's up to your interpretation. (Cop-out answer go!)
Why?TDS, can you kill yourself while targeting yourself?I'll answer this soon.
... what in the nine hells has been going on here?1. My sentiments exactly.
FoU, since you apparently submitted the role that made Ragshake, what was it?
One of my roles went to DA - the one that put people up for replacement. Also, I do not have a selfkill ability. Well, if the box powers are related to each other. If anyone has one to trade that can avoid protections, I could use it.Hey. TheDarkStar. I don't have a Box of Orden... but I have a role called Frogger that has a "self dies" clause that should be pretty easy to trigger. I have no real need or want for it, and having it is preventing me from using [REDACTED TO MAKE ME LESS OF A SCUM TARGET] every night. If you want it and you an take it, you can have it.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I have a role that guarantees correct role flips, so no.I submitted that one! It was one of my best ideas!
Attempting to murder all players after a player has claimed the ability to inspect boxes... that's not pro-town TDS.That's one. Plus... you're risking a kill attempt on all players... for the ability to freely change 5 posts a day.
Moonlit, don't use your box inspect on me (at least not first), I am 99% sure I won't be using my box in the near future.Here we go. Assuming TolyK isn't lying about having a box of orden... assuming TDS isn't lying about having opened the box that grants power...
How is post manipulation not a town power?
Anyway, my set of roles appears to be some kind of giant joke - I'm unkillable and can't win until killed and I prevent a bunch of other things from happening.You're unkillable... but you can't win until you're killed. Hold on. Is that "killed", or is that "dead"?
How is post manipulation not a town power?
How is it a town power?

TolyK basically has a nuke now.
TolyK: What are you going to do with your nuke?
I can't win until I'm dead because it makes the win-prevention role stop.Hmm. Duly noted.
I can't steal roles, unfortunately.
Unrelated: If TolyK uses his Box of Orden, hilarity will ensue. Not from me, but from a role I sent in.
I submitted a Shakeragian role that probably makes all investigative powers fail while a living player has it.Fun fact: Inspections on me will have a random random result either way.
I believe scum might get more use out of it, however.
FoU:Why is there a loaded question to TMS there? And why only TolyK in particular? [I mean others could've done the same] (And also with the rest being banter or stuff)Shakerag: You have an evil twin. Are you going to do something about that.That would depend on whether or not I -can- do something about it. For now, I think it's kind of hilarious.
Also, the Sword of Truth series sucked >_<
Tawarochir:
Looks like you got my trigger warnings role. Sorry bub.WARNING: This post may trigger an infraction on my part but it's worth itYou're welcome.
(also screw you, whoever submitted that role)
4maskwolf:What's this nonsense about this "ragshake" person being "Shakerag's evil twin". I've played with Shakerag before, and there is no good in him. There is no possible way for ragshake to actually be the evil twin of that duo.This. This right here. It likely should have been my good twin >_>
Just saying.
Tiruin: Define a "healthy" amount.
The Moonlit Shadow: Are you having problems accessing quicktopic right now?
TolyK: How much Shakeragian bullshit did you personally introduce into this game?
Ragshake: 'sup, buddy? Wanna go somewhere and get totally shitfaced and swap stories?
A Tumbling Tumbleweed: *makes tumbleweed noises*
Hector13: What question should I be asking you right now?
OSG: What's new in the field of origami science?
Teneb: Doesn't RVS seem even more pointless in a game like this?
Everyone: Who isn't afraid of dying, other than TDS?TolyK: U gon keel me nao punk? Bring eet! Bring eet! I ain't afraid of no dying!
I believe scum might get more use out of it, however.Fallacy
...Subtle intonation there? That's some kind of specific hypotheticals, TMS.I can't win until I'm dead because it makes the win-prevention role stop.What if I 'remove you from the game'? Would that work?
I can't steal roles, unfortunately.
Unrelated: If TolyK uses his Box of Orden, hilarity will ensue. Not from me, but from a role I sent in.
Query to everybody: why would DA want to open his Box of Orden? It would either kill him, kill everybody, or grant him limited edit powers... I'm thinking that he's actually a serial killer, but won't flip as one until day four. Because then: killing everybody becomes desirable, and using the box becomes less of a risk.Many things. Either he could be teammates with someone and opened it due to speculation of bonus. Perhaps also knowing he's town (unless there's a role/power that's hiddent hat converts flips to a certain alignment [seriously that's not nice -_- but this is me prejudging]), that there's little for him to lose and much more to gain (since the idea that 'oh wow, 1/3 chance to KILL EM ALL? Surely there's a defense to that' comes up) considering the any-3 clause there before opening it.
I am also going to reiterate on the mafia-cooperate-with-me-nao thing. We 99% have a mafia and it looks as if (from my point of view) that there's a way to make (nearly?) everyone win.You...could explain your idea out loud you know :v I seriously doubt you'd get a 'hey I'm Mafia right now! Look at me! Please tell me your plan :D' bit. I mean I could say I'm Mafia and any hint towards it will be for forward easy guessing. It's also a strangely straightforward idea since it's obvious that you considered the context of others here. Take for example me being town, and I want to get rid of the Mafia, now I don't know you--so I use my powers on the claimed Mafia :v That's only ONE of the many fun things that can happen when uncoordination occurs.
Everyone who voted TDS: Why pick him firsthand other than the [everyone else] around?Because he lied (replay 211), of course. And town rarely have reason to lie.
The box has been successfully opened and it was not the kill box.I'm browsing via searchengine (As in I typed in boxes//box) and...you can see when boxes are opened? O_o (I don't have a box) but yeah.
I'm seriously re-reading someday soon, but I don't want to cross the OP 'one day' thing because of RL stuff! :IEveryone who voted TDS: Why pick him firsthand other than the [everyone else] around?Because he lied (replay 211), of course. And town rarely have reason to lie.
Everyone who voted TDS: Why pick him firsthand other than the [everyone else] around?Because he lied (replay 211), of course. And town rarely have reason to lie.
Well, TDS has claimed to not dying when killed, which is why I excluded him from that question.Everyone: Who isn't afraid of dying, other than TDS?TolyK: U gon keel me nao punk? Bring eet! Bring eet! I ain't afraid of no dying!
:v
What purpose does this kind of questioning lead to, and why're you excluding TDS straight out? :v Like, even in the sentence structure.
Well, if I were mafia, I doubt... oh, right, WIFOM. I guess I could be mafia-ally as well, if it really came to it...I am also going to reiterate on the mafia-cooperate-with-me-nao thing. We 99% have a mafia and it looks as if (from my point of view) that there's a way to make (nearly?) everyone win.You...could explain your idea out loud you know :v I seriously doubt you'd get a 'hey I'm Mafia right now!

So you explaining your plan is best for everyone. Currently at its vague state, it actually benefits the Mafia more.
Maybe YOOOUUU ARE MAFIA TOO. But that's me being silly. Usually when you do those silly things, you're not explicitly the one you call out in your plan >_>
So sup, TolyK? In the least hint about that everyone win bit.
It's not so much that... it's possible for town to use the Power of Orden to town's benefit...I believe scum might get more use out of it, however.And how does the role's utility make TDS scum?
It's not so much that... it's possible for town to use the Power of Orden to town's benefit...I believe scum might get more use out of it, however.And how does the role's utility make TDS scum?
Query, hector: At the time before TDS opened(if he wasn't lying) his box, the "kill self" box had already been opened. Meaning one box nuked everybody, and one box granted... post manipulation powers.
Why would a townie want to risk nuking everybody for... post manipulation powers, of all things?
kills of any sort have a 20% chance of failing (on top of any other chances) but bypass all protection abilities, and any other action has a 10% chance of turning into a kill.
... hector, are you trying to downplay a power that could have ATTEMPTED TO KILL EVERYBODY? Sure, 1 in 5 of those attacks would have failed. That still leaves the vast majority of the players.
I have some protection against such... but I imagine that a significant number of the players wouldn't.
Query: more players are town than scum.
Opening the nuke box would have been worse for town than scum.
Why are you defending the guy that was willing to risk nuking everybody... for post manipulation powers?
Town actually can have several reasons to lie in this begongled setup because of the powers that they have and don't want anybody else to know. Otherwise, there would be nothing to stop everybody from mass claiming all their roles right here and right now. Also, abilities probably has little to no affect on role if FHPBYOR1 is anything to go by.Refusing to give information (thusly, omission) is not a lie. Either way, TDS has not been acting like a townie. He lied, was dodgy with info and, more importantly, used an ability that had the potential to kill everyone in DAY ONE. Even if you dismiss the first two, the third is not something town does outside the toughest LYLOs (example: last day of BYOS).
Even if you dismiss the first two, the third is not something town does outside the toughest LYLOs (example: last day of BYOS).
DA using the box was also not town behaviour.Even if you dismiss the first two, the third is not something town does outside the toughest LYLOs (example: last day of BYOS).
Counterexample: DA.
But he was town.DA using the box was also not town behaviour.Even if you dismiss the first two, the third is not something town does outside the toughest LYLOs (example: last day of BYOS).
Counterexample: DA.
... yeah... well, on the other hand, it could kill all the scum if someone has revives.Keep in mind that the multikill can also kill whomever has these theoretical revives. If TolyK is town, or careful scum, he won't use it.
Uh... so... we really need to determine what alignmentTDSTolyk is then.
Again, assuming he opened the box and got power result.
Actually, he can do it to five posts per day. Check the wording of Deus Asmoth's role flip.
TheDarkStar. Just for emphasis.
Behold.Okay. Um... wow. Whoever sent in that troll role that prevents whoever has it from winning... allow me to express my anger towards you- RAAAAGGHH!!!
It could be worse - I have a role that stops everyone from winning.
Okay.
Everybody: I have a role called Frogger. If you have a method to transfer it to TDS, do so. Frogger has a clause that TDS can use to make himself die(not a kill, just a "you die" style effect) N2.
Plus I'm going to remind everybody that I used my truth detection ability today on TDS' statement of "I have a role that means nobody can win"(or whatever it was called). It came up true. Unfortunately.

Je ne comprend pas why football is so enjoyed by so many people...
What'd I miss?

Not at all. I just felt like it; it would be cruel to kill him while he's AFK... :D I like cruelty.
TDS, is it a waste of time me voting you: what will happen if you're lynched?
Assuming that you are not fakeclaiming. Fortunately, there is a way to find out (lynching you).TDS, is it a waste of time me voting you: what will happen if you're lynched?The lynch will fail.

This game seems to throw out all traditional strategies of winning other games. I agree that TDS needs to die, and I suppose that attempting to lynch him is the only way to. TDS x3I don't. :v 'This game seems to throw out all traditional strategies' on D1? Seriously?
Tolyk: Why... what was the point of that last post? What would happen if you were to be lynched?I meant for ONE person to vote for me, not everyone. :P
This game seems to throw out all traditional strategies of winning other games. I agree that TDS needs to die, and I suppose that attempting to lynch him is the only way to. TDS x3Well, we could try that, because at worst it basically becomes "nobody gets lynched", which I'm personally fine with.
Strategies: Find scum, Kill scum."Stopping everyone from winning" = scum? :v
I don't think they really hold the same meaning here, since TDS could very well be town with an unfortunate ability (Who gave him that one anyway?)
Yeah, we need to focus on TDS's 'stop everyone from winning' ability. I mean, anyone else want to win?Day. One. I'll reframe what you've said for clarity since I'm uncertain (and you're new :v)
Strategies: Find scum, Kill scum.This is basically what the role says, but I'm very optimistic on a joint victory condition.
I don't think they really hold the same meaning here, since TDS could very well be town with an unfortunate ability (Who gave him that one anyway?)
Yeah, we need to focus on TDS's 'stop everyone from winning' ability. I mean, anyone else want to win?I don't want it, I'm fine with it. Day 1 is basically a nothing day where few abilities (except the mystery boxes and several lower-key abilities such as truth inspection) happen, and with no history to determine anything, attempting to lynch TDS and potentially failing isn't really my greatest worry.
Tolyk: Why do you want us to lose one of our kills? At least some town have kills because of the rule that someone can't be lynched unless someone voting them has a kill, so we still have that, but this is the only kill that the entirety of the town decides on.
if my second day action hadn't failed... and thank goodness too.
I'd rather not spin around with TDS and the amount of attention revolving around him :v I mean, why?Oh hello.
Him stopping peeps from winning is paramount importance to scum BEFORE town...so why the curiosity, TMS, Teneb, and probably all the rest voting/making 70%+ of their post directed to TDS who I lack the time to include here.Okay.FoU What're your thoughts on why you're revealing this ON DAY 1 in the whole context of this game?

Why are you revealing you having a truth detection thingy in a statement that just gives out the fact that you have one rather than actually confirming TDS' idea? {Contextually inefficient :V}
Vote for me, let's see what happens.I'll support the idea that this sounds slightly suspicious. TolyK, are you a Survivor?
I have no vote manipulation powers. Do you?
((FoU, think a second...))What's that supposed to mean?
I believe that is a polite way for TheBiggerFish to call FallacyofUrist an idiot.((FoU, think a second...))What's that supposed to mean?
Tolyk: Going for an 'everyone wins' is kinda... ambitious, don't you think?No, I think it fits fine in any bastard game. There are some in which this is impossible, but this is a setup where it seems completely possible.
Everybody, do you have a role that prevents you from winning unless a certain condition is met? You don't have to say what the condition is.No, I don't have any role that prevents anyone winning. Well, except possibly the mafia, currently, but that can actually change. Hence the whole "everyone wins" bit.
Everybody, do you have a role that prevents you from winning unless a certain condition is met? You don't have to say what the condition is.I already stated this twice, but again since people can't seem to remember: I am town. I can only win while dead. I can only die if I win. This does not affect anyone but myself and anti-town players.
Let's see.I have a role with an auto that prevents me from winning as long as I have the role. However, I can get rid of it fairly easily since I have another role that has abilities powered by sacrificing roles I have.
Everybody, do you have a role that prevents you from winning unless a certain condition is met? You don't have to say what the condition is.
I do not, but It is possible that TDS is also blocking.
Everybody, do you have a role that prevents you from winning unless a certain condition is met? You don't have to say what the condition is.
Eheh. I think I know who that person is... :D Nope. Not gonna just because you asked. I'm not some do-gooder who does what people ask of him.Tolyk: Why... what was the point of that last post? What would happen if you were to be lynched?I meant for ONE person to vote for me, not everyone. :P
On that note, though, the lynch would fail.Hohohohector, that's not funny.Everybody, do you have a role that prevents you from winning unless a certain condition is met? You don't have to say what the condition is.
Yes. I have in fact lost the game already (and so have all of you! hohohoho /stupid reference)
Eat me, spectators.Scratch that; reading comprehension is hard.
So, it looks like we have a ressurector dude. Welcome back Deus Asmoth and Hector13.DA is only reviving the next day, if I recall.
He's alive, you numb-ass! Check the vote-count. Seriously. Ugh.So, it looks like we have a ressurector dude. Welcome back Deus Asmoth and Hector13.DA is only reviving the next day, if I recall.
Here's something fun: It's called Spin the Wheel of Idiots! You roll a random number, and I vote someone based on it! Hahahah!
Ragshake: 13Tada! The wheel spins 13 times and lands on... Hector!
What ho. I have been slain.
Somebody bring me back.
Also, I am sorry about Ragshake, Hector.
Hmm. I know approximately who isn't a dick. But. I'm guessing there's kinda a way around this? I can't do anything but talk (not even vote), atm, unless Flabort tells me otherwise. So... whoo?Your powers and autos don't work. The infraction system does not cancel your ability to vote.
Either way, I'm pretty sure we have anti-Town players other than the mafia, because I doubt someone would be going after me that hard if they were town + I can technically talk with the mafia (NQT flipped, so I know at least one :p).As Hector pointed out, there is no reason for town to believe you are town. They could think you are scum or another third party (since both the infraction-gift and your post were before 4maskwolf gave us the numbers (I am inclined to believe them).
Now. Everyone: Who has any information from the last two nights they would like to make public?
How did you find all this out?How do you think, Webby? I have a role that tells me this. Every phase I get a list of all alignments in the game.
InB4 that very statement reads as a lie. :P
How did you find all this out?How do you think, Webby? I have a role that tells me this. Every phase I get a list of all alignments in the game.
Unknown, but as it does not say it does it is likely it does not. Ragshake's alignment is an educated guess from the wincon for Ragshake given in your own role. Tumbling Tumbleweed I know because I also have an inspect. Machiavellian is the role that means everything I say looks like lies, fyi.How did you find all this out?How do you think, Webby? I have a role that tells me this. Every phase I get a list of all alignments in the game.
4mask Does that role take into account disguises or other alignment concealing things like that?
Does it have Ragshake's alignment?
Byraway, 'cause just so I don't forget, one of the roles I submitted was the word "Machiavellian" so... Could be an awful thing for us, could be good, depending on quite how Machiavellian flabort decided to be.
Why do you think someone who is not town is the one giving you the infractions, Tolyk?
True... It's possible for a town actor to want to lock me out of using my claimed masskill, as a sustained roleblock, but the way it's escalating it's looking like someone just wants me modkilled. I have 3 (!) of the same roles that block my other roles, as well as 2 infractions, so I can't do anything at all, except vote and die.Either way, I'm pretty sure we have anti-Town players other than the mafia, because I doubt someone would be going after me that hard if they were town + I can technically talk with the mafia (NQT flipped, so I know at least one :p).As Hector pointed out, there is no reason for town to believe you are town. They could think you are scum or another third party (since both the infraction-gift and your post were before 4maskwolf gave us the numbers (I am inclined to believe them).
Now. Everyone: Who has any information from the last two nights they would like to make public?
Care to give us details on how you can converse with the scum?
I have some information to share, as point of fact.Aha, so cult leader, by your words. Don't be surprised if I end up as a cult member as well (though I have... tricks up my sleeve... if I get to use them :-\), if this crap is a slowed conversion.
A Tumbling Tumbleweed is a town-ally and the third third-party (the first two are hector and ragshake, as outsiders)
There are two remaining mafia, after NQT's death.
There is one cult member, which has weirdly not changed since D1, so either they can't convert or they haven't yet.
All other players are town.
(TDS, right?) claimed an "accurate inspection for everyone" role.
Also Teneb, what makes you believe 4mask's numbers? Just because they make sense?The numbers match the number of players we have, and make sense from a balance standpoint. Of course this doesn't mean I think 4maskwolf is immediately town for this information, but I am inclined to believe the information.
I hope everyone knows you can target dead people, right?Can we? I see nothing in the rules, though I've already proven my ability to overlook things at the start of this Day.

My general ability to know the alignment list is not an inspection, however. As far as I can tell from the ability's description, inspection fuckery will not affect my ability to determine the truth.I have some information to share, as point of fact.Aha, so cult leader, by your words.

Inspections on me turn into a random alignment, so this could also be the case, however someone (TDS, right?) claimed an "accurate inspection for everyone" role.

your willingness to lynch me from *that* post is quite concerning, to be at least.Currently voting for TDS cuz why not he ain't gonna die.So you are willing to throw away your vote? That's some top-notch town play, TolyK.
We still have no votecount. Nobody knows what happened, yet, so voting for someone who can't die stops some shenanigans from occurring. You folks also realize we have a chat between TDS, DA and me, right? And NQT, in a different one, as talk with the mafia. I'd prefer that nothing shocking happens while trying to piece stuff together (I haven't revealed some info from both chats, mostly because I suspect my blocker to be not very nice).Quote from: RashakeGuess I'll have to use my other day ability and vote all the idiots.
We still have no votecount.In a minute.
So... what are the grey ones in parentheses, flabsy?Going out on a limb here, I'd say they Ragshake's ability allows him to place a vote on everyone, but that vote doesn't take affect unless that person already has another vote on them. Notice how the two people where Ragshake's vote is not greyed out are TDS and TolyK, who are the only two players with other votes on them.
Well, there's one way to test that...origamiscienceguy
Shakerag's Evil Twin, Ragshake
TolyK: Did you set up your private chat with NQT before or after his death?After. If you remember, I had asked to be contacted by them, but they didn't, so I called him instead. :P
Alright, what I see from information so far:
- 3+ people have boxes of Orden.
- We have an everyone-wins scenario, but not on the first day. It probably involves TDS killing himself.
- Shakerag's twin probably steals roles.
- We have a mafia, no SK (by the looks of it), and possibly a cult. At least based on "no double teams", which could be broken here.
Er... is that Shakerag or Ragshake?TolyK: Did you set up your private chat with NQT before or after his death?After. If you remember, I had asked to be contacted by them, but they didn't, so I called him instead. :P
That's actually an interesting idea.
Shakerag's Evil Twin, Shakerag, if you may.
Heh. You think you're clever. RagVote is much more than just duplicating votes.
Quote from: RagshakeHeh. You think you're clever. RagVote is much more than just duplicating votes.
Why would you even want to set up a chat with a known mafia?TolyK: Did you set up your private chat with NQT before or after his death?After. If you remember, I had asked to be contacted by them, but they didn't, so I called him instead. :P
To be able to ask for some information that the mafia members are willing to give up, but not to everyone/not publicly. Depending on how Ragshake-lynching goes (and if I don't die...) I might have a plan for D4/D5.Why would you even want to set up a chat with a known mafia?TolyK: Did you set up your private chat with NQT before or after his death?After.

Hey! Not fair. Just because I tap into my inner asshole to write for you doesn't mean I'm crazy!It's not me.Oh, but you should. It's so much fun. :P
I urge you. Take your revenge out on me. JOIN THE DARK SIDE! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAH!Anyway, I'll stop Raggy shaking things up for the rest of the day.And how will you do that? Blocking me? I've already USED my actions, you're TOO LATE! Eheheh.
Oh; I don't have to spread my votes evenly, I just said "all the idiots" and that's how flabort spread them, BTW. RagVote just gives me a vote for each vote already placed; I think the grey was because he was confused. Honestly, he's in a totally separate state of mind between NPC actions and processing actual actions; someone should check him into a shrink.
*sticks out tongue*Jerk.
This game needs more than this. -_- Side commentary helps nobody unless [ulterior motives//isolated-town-playstyle]Eat me, spectators.Scratch that; reading comprehension is hard.
Eat me, redirector.
No, I'm alive now. What is dead may never die and all that. We can probably rule out NQT's role being the resurrecting one, at least. I doubt there's a role that specifically needs me and hector dead to win.Since you're alive, can you
Anyway, D1 thoughts from a dead guy:
- Two boxes are open, presumably Tolyk's kills everyone unless each box is actually a random result.
- Two post restrictions as far as I can see, nothing too severe.
- Hardly anyone actually had any interaction with NQT during D1 (He initiated interaction with TDS and 4mask, Tiruin asked him a question).
- Opening boxes with one in three chances to kill you is a poor idea.
Ragshake: 13
I am a happily paranoid girl :vWhat ho. I have been slain.
Somebody bring me back.

Re: Spoiler: Shakerag's Evil TwinFlabort: Other than the query in the spoiler for you, can I ask you to ask Mephansteras why he has no picture/avatar? :OSpoiler: To Flabort (click to show/hide)
Is Flabort asking Meph to edit posts? Or is he asking Tawochir to edit it?Post says that Meph edited the post.
I tried to inspect him with the "Guess Who?" role, and I wasn't able to, though I can confirm 4mask's revelation that Tumbleweed is a Town-Ally, as that's the result I got instead.Relevant to this, does anyone have any way of disabling NQT's resurrection ability? It's impossible for us to win unless we can deal with that.
Perhaps there's a connection between the two NPCs?
I'd also rather you guys didn't kill him. Flabsy confirmed there is a way to get him out the game, I just don't know what that is. I can stop Ragshake using powers with one of my abilities, and also stop him voting, though that might be a bit late...
Event!...So is there a role that blocks roleflips or is someone protecting TolyK. :v
TolyK is suddenly shot. Nobody saw the attacker, but luckily TolyK just fainted and fell over. (Ability to vote lost, ability for actions (still) gone).
Tiruin, that didn't feel very nuke-yI know right? :V
Where did NQT say he had a Resurrection ability?*rereads* Where did you get that idea? :v

Because it costs me nothing to state what I had assumed when I read the votecount? Am I not allowed to take any amount of time away from reading the players? Plus, these styles of games aren't won by finding the scum per-se, in my experience, so the day phase becomes less important.

4mask (woo, my rare blue 'votes' shine)
Why're you adding to speculation onto an NPC? What do you think about the NPCs present that I believe you have detailed in mention earlier and what is your current goal as of today: Figuring out the NPCs, or Figuring out the players?
Essentially, the ability resurrects a person that is dead who would prevent the victory of a faction if they are alive. So if the town is about to win, NQT will be resurrected as he's the first dead mafia....Yes.

Well, that's a lot to happen in one night.I did that to get your alignment-flip >_> (I mean, the people whose roles DO control the flips are back and revivified). [And rather 'your', but more 'people who are leading being voted' :V)
If I was actually shot, then I have no idea why I'm alive - I really should be dead by now. I have an auto that protects me, but it shouldn't be working by now.
Essentially, the ability resurrects a person that is dead who would prevent the victory of a faction if they are alive. So if the town is about to win, NQT will be resurrected as he's the first dead mafia....So the only way to win is to have a role which wipes either Autos, or wipes abilities.
Ragshake has post editing powers, I'm reasonably sure.So, uh. Why didn't you stop him earlier, and why do you refer to lynching Tumblewee even though we know he revives? That's bad, based on what everyone's telling me about my vote on TDS. :P
I also don't really want to be lynching Ragshake, for (hopefully obvious) selfish reasons. Perhaps we can lynch Tumbleweed instead? Or maybe we need to kill them both at the same time to get rid of them...
Anyway, I'll stop Raggy shaking things up for the rest of the day.
THIS is important because it made me mess up in D1! I was the one who Solid Snake'd TDS >_> (I misread my ability and thought it 'adds a vote' instead of what happened back there).Wait, so you have Solid Snake vote manipulation thingie. Then blocked N2, when trying to use a different aspect of the role (as stated below, tracking me). Correct?
Since I'm claiming it and someone sent in that role anyway, it's continued below.
Alright, so here're some claims I've to forward--I've that Solid Snake role which I used D1/N2. I got blocked N2 because somebody threw a crowbar at me :V and stuck me in the closet (har har, I'm in the closet. AGAIN[/OOC] ;V)
On my reads list because raisins, everyone is nominally gray. TolyK is of significant mention because I thought he was town; I used a TRACK on him yesternight but then crowbar happened. Hilariously, I misread that one TOO >_> [In which it reads my TARGET is notified of everyone visiting them, including MEE. Point was, at that time in my character-state, I felt he was town-ish.]I wish that would've gone through, actually; that way I would know who is a blocking sonovabitch. :P
> Stuff's goin' down because I really want to ensure what TolyK will be by killing his face. There's somewhat of a reviver anyway (notme) so eh. And that reviver seems to be playing the middleman by resurrecting everyone-not-mafia. TolyK, I'd like you to tell us all why you're contacting the Mafia and why you're being very open about it...when context provides that you're pretty much speaking about everything-but-nope (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6811987#msg6811987). <_< {I may be personally biased because of this attitude}, but dude, I really think you've an ulterior motive. The Mafia is 2+ people! [Presuming mostly a "3"]; it's half of the phone-line-conversation you're doing there. Why did you claim out firsthand that you've a 'power to chat with them' and then leave it hanging there? [as far as skim goes, you didn't expound it--I asked a question about it before]So, you want to know what's going on by trying to kill me. That seems reasonable. :D But your kill failed, so huh.
> My N1 action KILLED THE TUMBLEWEED for some reason, even if it was NOT a kill-action. [It was a one-shot bloody investigate aimed NOT at the tumbleweed >_>]Who were you trying to investigate?
Wait, wat. People are all suddenly voting an NPC? Please recall votes and put them on a person--I have already sent in a PM to Flabort that is the equivalent of pressing the Big Red Nuclear Launch Button.Spoiler: Which as far as I know, can't be redacted -.- (click to show/hide)
Sorry for the silliness. This is my way of coping with stress of RL and busyness. And not intentionally as a smokescreen, post restriction, or whatever.
So, you tried to nuke the NPC's too? Like a multi-kill or something? :PEvent!...So is there a role that blocks roleflips or is someone protecting TolyK. :v

Because I'm bloody sure that's what's happening now.Tiruin, that didn't feel very nuke-yI know right? :V
But what the fish. It seems like NPCs are not considered players I guess. Given the wording of the ability I just used.
Maaaaaan is this feeling like another round of 'Mafia/Town (shouldn't really fight) VERSUS Cult [or whatever]'.UI and I won BYOCards, where we were mafia.
It's like that one game...TolyK and Urist Imiknorris. I remember that one but am forgetting which one <_<

The reason I'm not telling everything is mostly trust: if I tell everything that's going on in there, some info that would be useful would not be given, most likely. Plus, it's not like you can silence me - I can still talk to people in quicktopics even when dead. ;)
Who were you trying to investigate?If questions like these were issued to everyone else, we'd have a more prolific of a game here!

The second aspect is me sending to the other person a track list of everyone visiting them. Re-re-re-re-re-reading it tells me that it's as if you get the info on being tracked (and I don't, which I'm ok about in a good re-read of the thread and knowing TolyK more). [This also pertains to removing infractions anyway since it's a kill! But I've no idea anymore since you're fainted.]

I know what's going on by trying to kill you == I'm killing you to check alignment :v I thought that would work anyway given the state of affairs and looking at what happened in the past days, this also included tossing the mental dice that 'hey, maybe TolyK is non-scum; hey, maybe the reviver is non-scum'. Stuff like that.
Also I think Flabort needs to be the one telling us this instead of your assurance.

Usually when you :P around, that means you've a nice schemata in place.Well, the biggest problem is that I can't action for at least 2 phases, possibly 3 or 4, so I'm stuck here chatting and maybe voting and apparently getting revived a bunch.

I get the distinct impression that TolyK is not what he seems and knows more then he lets on...Just to clarify (since I think I've read everything -.-): You know how many alignments exist in the game or...how many roles?
TolyK
Anyone think mentioning how many roles you've sent in or what role names you've sent in is a good idea to claim at this time?I sent in 2, and currently have the staple 5. o_o
Just to clarify (since I think I've read everything -.-): You know how many alignments exist in the game or...how many roles?I know the alignments of every living player. There are two outsiders, one town-ally, one cult, two mafia, and seven town. Of those, hector13 is confirmed outsider, his role flip makes it very likely that Ragshake is the other outsider, and Tumbleweed is confirmed the town-ally by several people.
Also do you have a post restriction?
The answer to your second question is yes, as I have stated before.I missed where you stated it ._.; Can you repost that please, in a reply later on?
I know the alignments of every living player. There are two outsiders, one town-ally, one cult, two mafia, and seven town. Of those, hector13 is confirmed outsider, his role flip makes it very likely that Ragshake is the other outsider, and Tumbleweed is confirmed the town-ally by several people.Err...the wording pokes me. It's like saying 'I know all your alignments' or something :O (Also you mentioned there's a Cult? I'm hearkening onto the idea that there may be a power that revives one [non-scum] as a cultist; can you recheck on this or is it an Auto power?)
@Tiruin: The DF mechanics were still in on N1. So it could've been you. 10% chance of any action turning into a kill, right?I do not know if my thingy became a kill or not <_> Or...I'll recheck my N1 Result action. I think it did though. Will post in the morning because I have a disagreeable colon in RL and hrrrrgh why during exams (and post-breakdown due to other RL reasons).

Does this update per day? Is it one-shot used? I'm asking on bounds of certainty because we've got revivers (and it'll be a very umphy bastard game if alignments get changed because of abilities which play with life and death -_-)
4maskwolf: Do you have a post restriction that you are allowed to speak of?Wuba wub, wub wub wuba? Yes, yes I do, and I see no restriction in my role around my speaking of it. You should probably have already figured out what it is by now. If you haven't, then I can't help you.
I get the distinct impression that TolyK is not what he seems and knows more then he lets on...I actually do know more than I let on, however it's not by much (the biggest things are already said).
TolyK
Tolyk: You said that you'd be 'apparently getting revived a bunch'. Someone would have to kill you first. Why do you think you're a target? Well, besides the 2 infractions, role that stops you from using actions, and being roleblocked in the 'EVENT!'.I think I'm a target precisely after the second (and third) role that stops me from using actions. Before that, I just knew that I would (normally) revive upon being killed.
Lovely. The end effect is still that I'm not dead, though, so hopefully it works out.Well, that's a lot to happen in one night.... I screwed up on two counts.
If I was actually shot, then I have no idea why I'm alive - I really should be dead by now. I have an auto that protects me, but it shouldn't be working by now.
A) I'm now realizing that the event shouldn't have gone through
B) If it had gone through, you'd be dead.
Mandatory "I told you".Flabort: Where is FallacyOfUrist's Roleflip? I flopped to the OP and flopped back into the game in order to write this next paragraph which went "Well we're back to square 1, sans NQT and *checks OP* FallacyOfUrist; we know a bit more about people's ROLEs and ABILITIES but a ton less on scumhunting--and the goings of people now are revolving around abilities and who did wut and "oh you prevent me from winning? Have a vote good sir." which gets answered by "Quite. I shall continue in vague." rather than 'scumhunting'" <_>Two posts below where he died.
Because I forgot to just edit it into that post.Flabort: What're the rules regarding dead people? What're the rules regarding dead people and quicktopics? Will the bastard-y nature of this game ever change those rules? Is there a deadchat?Dead people may not post in the thread. Dead people can still talk in quicktopics. Perhaps they may change, probably not. No, there is no deadchat.
Hmm... Tolyk, is it possible for you to create the equivalent of a Deadchat? Might want to do that, because of NQT's revival ability.It's completely possible, however not for another 3 or 4 phases because I'm duct-taped and tied and glued to the town's voting-post. :>
@Tiruin: The DF mechanics were still in on N1. So it could've been you. 10% chance of any action turning into a kill, right?That's exactly what I was saying about the Tumbleweed murder of N1.
Ragshake: In your opinion, who should I vote for? Also, who should I absolutely -not- vote for (yourself excluded)?Yourself; alternatively, an easy and vulnerable target, like Tiruin or TolyK. Also, don't vote Solid Snake; his name's not on the vote list.
Eh, screw it. Tiruin x3, TolyK x3, Hector x3. Heheheh.
I had another one, but FallacyofUrist revealed early D1 that he had a copy of the role (indirectly), so I gave it to him N1.So, you started with one, gave it to FoU, and eventually...
flabort, can modkilled players be resurrected? Also, do the roles of modkilled players that would normally function after death continue functioning after being modkilled?Missed this. I guess they can be.
It seems that ragshake gets one vote per person NOT voting him. That seems like a good enough reason to remove him from the game.
So Shakerag is apparently Confirmed Town. Don't know how much we can trust that, though. Yes, I know it's the mod but it's also an ability.
Redoing to Ragshake because so far my hunch is inconclusive and I'm tired.Care to explain what this hunch of yours is, or are you happy to leave it ambiguous so you can get away with just about any explanation later?
What's the actual point of lynching Ragshake at the moment? He'll apparently win regardless of whether he's alive or dead and hector's the only one that actually benefits from inconveniencing him.Ragshake is obviously anti-town, and has been screwing with pretty much everyone. He may win even while dead, but it will at least turn him into a non-threat.
Can I ask what the objective of an outsider is? I think it means a variety of things, but I dunno. I mean, if they all have the same wincon as the other outsider we've seen then, well, they can't.It means "Can't be defined by normal parameters", so no, not all outsiders are the same thing.

8 town, 2 mafia, 2 cult, outsider, town-ally.I am going to take a guess that both NPCs are town. We had 2 mafia at the end of the last day. The second cult member can be explained by a conversion in the night, since the NPCs certainly were not in play then. Hector is the confirmed outsider and tumbleweed is the town-ally.
There's 14 people on that list. There are only 13 players.My mistake. 1 less town then that.
I AM THE SARGENT. That is the reason I am called the SARGENT. I assure you maggots that if I needed to spell to rise to my rank, I wouldn't be here. Now quit slacking! 20 pushups! You'll never make CORPRAL at that rate!
NO! I am not a robot! It is an insult to all of shark kind to even speculate that!
Never met a Ragshake in my life. It's not relevant to your training, so get to work!
Right. Assuming that 4mask is telling the truth (would anyone be opposed to me giving him enough infractions to get him modkilled so that we can check if he's [still] town?) then the cult is actually capable of converting people after all. So it might be worth claiming if anyone blocked someone during night 1 and/or 2 but not 3 so that we can try to get rid of the leader before this becomes an issue.Oh so it was you?
Following on from that, Tolyk probably wouldn't be so open about wanting everyone to win as scum and TDS can't be lynched... so...WTF.
Tiruin, random chance tells me that you're scum. If you admit it now we can lynch you rather than forcing me to give you a bunch of infractions.

4mask, did you get a list of alignments during day 1, and if so was there a jester? We might as well sort out whether Shakerag is changing alignments every day.I'll shortcut my own findings for him (but I'm also interested in hearing from you, 4mask)
Private, obviously ;)Newbie, content please. In any other game we can go with banter, but considering all this--go forward with content <_<
Okay, this is... weird.And this is why we need scumhunting :v So despite any addition of hilarity, we'd at least be able to establish 'SOMETHING' on the PCs.
Guessing whether the NPCs are whatever is irrelevant; they are based on ROLES which is why they exist. Could I ask why you're rolling into that tangent? :O8 town, 2 mafia, 2 cult, outsider, town-ally.I am going to take a guess that both NPCs are town. We had 2 mafia at the end of the last day.

I guess the question is if the NPCs are disruptive like Ragshake or not.
TheDarkStar: Update thyself. You're a person who currently stops everyone from winning and I'm totally OK with it. Please extend that kind of attention and potential towards more activity, please.I misformatted and pressed post.
((Also OOC, please get well soon. Hope your nosebleed is OK :-[))
My wincon remains removing Ragshake from the game.Why aren't you a lyncher then?
I'm presently bemused by DA's voting of Tiruin. I can't see that being a serious vote given he's basically saying "I have nothing but a likely flawed statistical analysis based on an incomplete data set and many, many assumptions to support my vote on Tiruin."There're stuffs like pressure voting :P I've in my notebook that people do that sometimes to initiate conversation with others especially when the context is lacking.
Like, seriously bro?
Also, OSG is confirmed as town once he comes back I guess, since the non-town faction numbers are unchanged (besides cult going up one- unless the WIFOM laden thought that just occurred to me is true).DA, the 'faction numbers' are based on who is currently present at the start of the phase--as far as I presume, OSG's disappearance is a result of a night action; if it was a day action, it would be in a separate post from the day start post. If it was a hilarious day-action that was meant to start at the start of the day, then in the least there would be a notification (as I hope, Flabort [please confirm]?) that there is a difference, even if not direct.

Two more NPC's. Two.Two more? I don't see Ragshake, so I'm assuming role shenanigans happened last night (can confirm, had role shenanigans happening to me. But dear goodness this is a kindly one. I'm loaning a role \o/ and can return it anytime [and then the role that was borrowed from me has all its use-abilities being spent :V])
Well, anyone know what the plant's (Tumbling Tumbleweed) doing? If it's nothing special, I'm in favor for ignoring it. Spectatorkill always seems not to have killed, however. If we knew the Spectator's motivations that would be more useful.
DAI didn't. Check my roleflip from earlier, my kills only come into play today. And my infractions come in larger doses.Right. Assuming that 4mask is telling the truth (would anyone be opposed to me giving him enough infractions to get him modkilled so that we can check if he's [still] town?) then the cult is actually capable of converting people after all.

Could you please give details why you infraction'd them?
No, when I say random chance I literally mean random chance. There are eight candidates for four scum roles currently in the game, not counting myself for obvious reasons. TDS is definitely immune to lynches and I'm inclined to believe when he says that he's immune to kills, so regardless of whether he's scum he can't be a candidate right now. Tolyk's play doesn't seem scummy to me, putting us at six candidates for four (or three is TDS is scum) roles. Then I rolled a dice, because I'm currently in a risk taking mood for unrelated reasons.Following on from that, Tolyk probably wouldn't be so open about wanting everyone to win as scum and TDS can't be lynched... so..."Random chance" is a much better way of saying anecdotal evidence. Doubly so when you forward it up with false bravado.
Tiruin, random chance tells me that you're scum. If you admit it now we can lynch you rather than forcing me to give you a bunch of infractions.
Seriously: For posterity, this is why people scumhunt.I'm scum hunting right now. Effectively? Perhaps not. But in a fashion that amuses me, which is much better.
And basically for you: Have your only targets of mention being those that are actively speaking in game?I'm not discarding TDS as a suspect, I'm saying that I can't get him lynched right now. I can disable his kill immunity tonight though, which is probably something I'm going to do.
You discard TDS because 'he's unkillable'? This is VERY strange behavior of you DA, because despite your character strength being your forwardness and straightforward attitude--you push away this ONE person because of what happened in D1.
Alone.
And you are not "confirmed town" {Though I like that you worded it as 'I know I'm confirmed town' >_> "I remember I'm town! :D"}. If we remove the idea that 4mask is scum (mafia or otherwise), then you may be cult or otherwise--given the latest count.Yep. I was confirmed town yesterday, but not any more since the cult has grown. Today I only said that I know I'm town to avoid reading over the post and thinking that I'd left someone out. I didn't say I was confirmed today as far as I recall.
DA, for a 'confirmed' townie, your play is abysmal thus far. >_>Not my standard play, certainly, but it should generate some interesting results.
Someone that I think is mafia, probably. I might drop it on the Sarge to check if he and Grif are actually the new cult members and OSG is the leader. It'd be an interesting twist. Though I'd need to day and night kill someone for them to actually die, which kind of sucks.4mask, did you get a list of alignments during day 1, and if so was there a jester? We might as well sort out whether Shakerag is changing alignments every day.I'll shortcut my own findings for him (but I'm also interested in hearing from you, 4mask)

NQT, if you were alive--even if you were Mafia, I'd enjoy your positing of ideas <_>
DA: Who are you planning to use your Daykill on?
Currently PFP'ing and also something just hit me while I read Hector's post.Not quite getting what you're saying here. If OSG disappeared as a result of a night action (which I'm assuming is the case), he wasn't present at the start of the day and as such wouldn't be part of the start-of-day faction count. Since he's been excluded from that count, but the number of mafia remains the same and the number of ult has actually increased it's therefore reasonable to assume that he can't be a member of either one unless he exiled himself to spawn two NPC cultists. Hmm...Also, OSG is confirmed as town once he comes back I guess, since the non-town faction numbers are unchanged (besides cult going up one- unless the WIFOM laden thought that just occurred to me is true).DA, the 'faction numbers' are based on who is currently present at the start of the phase--as far as I presume, OSG's disappearance is a result of a night action; if it was a day action, it would be in a separate post from the day start post.

So...scumslip much? :P
Nope, my infractions come in fours. My role has already flipped, you know. This shouldn't be a shock.Right. Assuming that 4mask is telling the truth (would anyone be opposed to me giving him enough infractions to get him modkilled so that we can check if he's [still] town?) then the cult is actually capable of converting people after all.

My wincon remains removing Ragshake from the game.My vote on Tiruin is pretty obviously not very serious given that I admitted while doing it that it was randomly placed from among six candidates. And if you check my roleflip, I have a role that exiles players for a phase then returns them to the game. I didn't use it on OSG, but it seems reasonable that if it's similar to my power it wouldn't just get rid of him forever.
I'm presently bemused by DA's voting of Tiruin. I can't see that being a serious vote given he's basically saying "I have nothing but a likely flawed statistical analysis based on an incomplete data set and many, many assumptions to support my vote on Tiruin."

Woah son ._.flabort, if an NPC is given four infractions, can they be replaced by a PC?o.O
I... guess...
-Players that accumulate 2 Infractions will be unable to use their roles for a cycle, and again for every 2 more infractions that they incur. Players that accumulate 4 Infractions will be put up for replacement.I don't even that kind of logic. But...woah.
Relevant roles:I didn't. Check my roleflip from earlier, my kills only come into play today. And my infractions come in larger doses.Eeeyeaaaaah ._.
That isn't in your roleflip either, so the mention of you + infractions = o_O
And I (at least) made notes! Your death-time (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6792045#msg6792045) plus the first instance of the infraction-thingy (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6797946#msg6797946) minus when you came back to life (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6802520;topicseen#msg6802520) equals a hilarious equation not written in symbols. (Meaning I'm poking you on this since I already knew you weren't the infraction-dude [UNLESS THAT CAN ACT ON DEATH :I or ABILITIES CAN BE GAINED ON DEATH which I doubt])
Seriousness aside, I'll submit a hypothetical then:

> When did you get that power to infract...-tion [may be optional to answer; can be general time]

Thoughts on a massclaim?Well, we know that everyone that isn't one of the already-known outsiders/allies is going to claim town. Unless there are people that can confirm player's claimed actions it's a little pointless at the moment.
Good lord too many things to reply to via phone. /not actually reading things... eventuallyWell, I can remove him for a phase, but that'd require predicting when the game will end. If you lose the Ragshake spawning role, do you know what your wincon will become?
Anyway, most salient (other than DA's vote, so unvote, for the moment) was Tiruin's demands for my wincon.
One of my roles (reply... 404? has either my flip or a link to it, will correct that if it's wrong tomorrow. Late and tired) is an instant loss while Ragshake wins. Ragshake wins by being in the game, and he's in the game whether alive or dead, so yeah. I voted for 'im, no feckin' closer to figuring out how to remove him from the game.
Perhaps the new NPCs have something to do with it?/thinking out loud
So what did you do anyway? :vActually, I guess there's not much point in not answering this. I had a suspicion that Ragshake would be coming back, so I took his toys away. If he does come back, he won't be able to Ragvote any more.

As for what I plan to do with them... selectively disabling the powers of people I think are scum seems pretty useful. Forcing someone to get modkilled also seems useful. So I'll probably do that.
[2 mafia]+[2 cult] = 4 scum.(Yeaaah I'm dum >_>)
My wincon remains removing Ragshake from the game.Why aren't you a lyncher then?
Also do you agree with the massclaim? Since [from my perspective] that seems the best way (even in the face of the mafia) to get coordinated here.
I'm presently bemused by DA's voting of Tiruin.

Like, seriously bro?
Anything of content for him there?
Anything for the rest of us?
Massclaim as you suggest would be not useful at this point I think. 80 roles in the game with God knows what abilities attached split among... 10 actual players and a handful of NPCs? Even though we know my roles and DAs, there's still a ridiculous amount of room for someone to fabricate a role. If my suspicions of Tumbleweed being an investigation magnet are true, then we can't even rely on watchers/trackers or the like to confirm any particular claim :oI'm a fish on mud. Plop plop plop x_x
Might also be some distancing going on between you two. /thoroughSure, I'd distance myself from someone who started the game as town. :P (Also I did some thinking back there and decided to indulge a baseline that Flabort won't bring in bastard-y roles that 'show {x} alignment on roleflip [but actually {y} alignment!]'), so it's pretty much why I didn't VOTE DA but instead fingered him--because he is not Mafia, and in the least "could" be cult.
At least you're thinking about advancing the game. Some town-cred there regardless of your alignment :PPlayer-cred, really. :P
I'm sure someone claimed an ability to force flips to be true. I'd check but... phone and tired unsleep :( I think it was TDS or DA. Maybe Tolyk...Oh, thanks for cuing my memory.
Anyway, my set of roles appears to be some kind of giant joke - I'm unkillable and can't win until killed and I prevent a bunch of other things from happening.
(TDS, right?) claimed an "accurate inspection for everyone" role.
No, it just forces roleflips to be accurate.
Right. Ugh.
TolykNope, my infractions come in fours. My role has already flipped, you know. This shouldn't be a shock.Right. Assuming that 4mask is telling the truth (would anyone be opposed to me giving him enough infractions to get him modkilled so that we can check if he's [still] town?) then the cult is actually capable of converting people after all. So it might be worth claiming if anyone blocked someone during night 1 and/or 2 but not 3 so that we can try to get rid of the leader before this becomes an issue.Oh so it was you?
-.-
This deserves some attention, IMO.flabort, if an NPC is given four infractions, can they be replaced by a PC?o.O
I... guess...
8) Is this too many questions? :PThe smiley was intentional I believe? :v
Thoughts on the massclaim?I think it may be time.
Flabort: Made a few mistakes, but doing pretty good as far as 80 roles are concerned IMO. Don't know if we can believe him, however.Anything he did catch your eye? Expound on what you mean by the last sentence, thanks.
I meant the 'Shakerag confirmed town' part.Where did you get that from? I have proven repeatedly my ability to overlook things, but I saw no indication that Shakerag is confirmed town. Right now, we only have perhaps OSG as confirmed town (DA might've been converted).
Flabort once said that Shakerag was confirmed town.Could you quote or at least say where Flabort confirmed Shakerag?
DA died from opening the box or Orden. Seems kinda hard to miss, if you went back.
Actually, he was revived on D4. So he wasn't actually alive last night. So it's not him.No, he didn't. He revived D2 (brief as it was). Look (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6802520#msg6802520). DA even corrected me about it:
No, I'm alive now. What is dead may never die and all that.
And here's where Flabort said that: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6815971#msg6815971I hope it is true (bastard game an all), but okay.
Teneb:The tangent was figuring out if they were anti-town (in behaviour, if not in wincon).Guessing whether the NPCs are whatever is irrelevant; they are based on ROLES which is why they exist. Could I ask why you're rolling into that tangent? :O8 town, 2 mafia, 2 cult, outsider, town-ally.I am going to take a guess that both NPCs are town. We had 2 mafia at the end of the last day. The second cult member can be explained by a conversion in the night, since the NPCs certainly were not in play then. Hector is the confirmed outsider and tumbleweed is the town-ally.
I guess the question is if the NPCs are disruptive like Ragshake or not.
Could I also ask you your main overview of the game thus far?
Mandatory Shakeragian ShenanigansIt belonged to NQT.
(Auto) You cannot win while...: If any team or player would win, the first person who died who's living would prevent that victory is resurected. They retain their access to the dead-chat.
(Auto) ...this role is in play: This role functions even if it's owner is dead.
ShakeragAnd OSG had an ability (taken by me in D3) that exclusively targets Shakerag (with a kill, block or redirect (chosen by user)).
(Auto) You are Shakerag: Any abilities that only function when targeting Shakerag, or that automatically target Shakerag, affect you too.
(Night) I'm 'a chargin' my Shaker!: Gain a Rag Token. You start with 0 Rag Tokens.
Eat me, spectators.
TDS: Has a kill. He basically asked us to lynch him D1, so now we think he's unlynchable. Not sure if anyone tried to kill him. It's possible he has a role that makes him unlynchable on D1, however.
Only two posts so far today are about the new NPC's. And not too important posts either. I think he's scummy. He's got us to think that he's unlynchable, which is huge for scum (and not exactly huge for town, why town want to waste a lynch like that).
TDS: I'd like to know what those other things you prevent from happening are.
7) Can dead players take non-targeted actions?Also this. I'd like this question answered.
Necromancer with a Jetpack and a BazookaI think we found the reviver.
I'm still not sure why I submitted some of these.Uh-huh.
@Fallacy about infractions: Then you've ruined the game."Ruined" is sort-of a strong word here. He hasn't given game-breaking info, or ratted out teammares or anything. Plus, if I had lived through, I'd add him to a merry little chat as well.
I can easily rule out that Tawarochir is NOT the cult leader because I did something to him last night. :V Do you feel lucky like that? Well do you, punk?I haven't been keeping up with the game much, but flabort prompted me to do something last night. I remembered there was a lot of suspicion on TolyK so I used a power of mine on him; it was late and I was too tired to check the thread for updates on his status. I'll explain about the power in a moment.
Tawarochir -- lacking posts/content to develop an experiential read; is not the cult leader as far as I know what happened since my action was successful on him.
Tawarochir: What did you do last night? I'd like to know because I checked up on you--and your unconventional ability.
Tawa: Poofed. Either lurking or blocked. I'd say lurking since there's no reason to block him - we want more content. So... I dunno. We'll see if he shows up.I'm here! Again, sorry for my inactivity.
Now that I think about it, DA was killed D1 and Tiruin had the only daykill (it says on the role it is the only daykill, if you are wondering), so...
Tiruin: Why did you daykill DA in D1?
Tiruin: Recall my role, Eevee, which caused any kill targeted at me to be randomly redirected. I think you're mafia that tried shooting me. Since I'm dead, this vote is a bit symbolic, but it gets the point across, yes/no?Tiruin can has facepalms?
Furthermore, we need to find a way to completely remove this role from the game:I'm at least happy to see that despite missing my posts, there's something that goes parallel to a query I asked earlier :V [because I feel ignored and such]QuoteMandatory Shakeragian ShenanigansIt belonged to NQT.
(Auto) You cannot win while...: If any team or player would win, the first person who died who's living would prevent that victory is resurected. They retain their access to the dead-chat.
(Auto) ...this role is in play: This role functions even if it's owner is dead.
This is further confirmed by Shakerag's comment here, that seems to imply that there was a kill attempt on him.Shaekrag is right there. I believe it is better to talk to the person rather than bring up what he says with unclear or vague content. Which is something Shakerag should acknowledgeEat me, spectators.
Sure, I could be wrong, but I find that unlikely.
You need to expound on that one. I kept notes and tabs on you (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6821935#msg6821935) and somehow this 'kill' immunity pops up? That's one high-powered package there with all those roles.TDS: Has a kill. He basically asked us to lynch him D1, so now we think he's unlynchable. Not sure if anyone tried to kill him. It's possible he has a role that makes him unlynchable on D1, however.
Only two posts so far today are about the new NPC's. And not too important posts either. I think he's scummy. He's got us to think that he's unlynchable, which is huge for scum (and not exactly huge for town, why town want to waste a lynch like that).
The important powers/autos I have are these: preventing anyone from winning, lynch and kill immunity, forcing accurate roleflips, and allowing spectator kills (and I think this might have caused you to see that I have a kill. Either that or the Box of Orden). Also I can roleblock a bunch of times (but only once) and I can do some silly things with other people's night actions.
I've also realized that I haven't answered some questions/comments. There ended up a lot of them, so I'll answer them tomorrow morning. Quickie tho: 4maskwolf "hunch" was that he was faking his alignment inspection role, but it currently seems legitimate to me. I am still town, still can't do anything b/c of the garbage roles, not sure if I'm still killable tho.I still wish to know 'What-the-HILARITY' (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6816169;topicseen#msg6816169) you and 4mask were vaguepoking each other there for.
So, anyway. The power I used was judgement. It kills somebody if they kill anybody. It can't be prevented. Sorry, Tir, but you did nothing. Not sure where TolyK stands at the moment, but he didn't kill anybody last night.
Well then.It feels so conspicuous though. Dead person comes back to post without any indication by FLABORT otherwise, dumps a load of post, overlyrespectfully asks to be revived [pls], and gives a throwaway vote without content (without context), and purely (IMO) to serve as smokescreen because I talked about my actions beforehand and they don't even get mentioned! (And somehow I get picked out of the everyone else? COME ON)Quote from: FOUNecromancer with a Jetpack and a BazookaI think we found the reviver.
Tiruin: There's no deadchat, btw.That's what I was thinking. Looking at FoU the only method he could've actually done that is
Tawa: That role seems pretty bullshit. It makes the most sense for it to be an auto (as it seems like you have to use it the same night that your target kills), but then it would kill scum every time they NK'd. So it'd be impossible for scum to win, thus game balance means that role is, overpowered. Because if there isn't a prevention for it... most of my roles are actually pretty shit, so I wouldn't know ;PIt makes sense to be an action, rather than an auto, really. If you target someone with an unblockable thing that kills them if they do kill, it's considerably more important to make that an action [maybe a one-shot].
I asked flabort about posting while dead after I opened the box. You get one infraction for the first post and three for any subsequent ones. I didn't find out what the result of dead players getting infractions is, but presumably they can still get replaced."Oh let's post everything in giant posts for the result of one infraction" >_>
Substantial proof that people don't read -_- or are being deliberately obfuscating.I did read that. I fail to see how that refutes the fact that you killed DA during D1. You had the only daykill then and you (seemingly) killed him at random. If you can justify the kill, I may find reason to remove my vote.
Teneb: I linked the EVERYTHING with kills/deaths/whatever (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6821935#msg6821935) <<<< here. Please tell me what led you to posting that.

WHATTawarochir, your action is a KILL. I have word that my roleblock worked and yet it is also an unconventional roleblock. It is a roleblock that blocks the target from using any abilities that are NOT Kill/Doctor/Cop/Roleblock/Jailkeep.Spoiler: Excuse me but (click to show/hide)
You've got some 'splaining to do, punk. That is obviously a kill action, and it is obviously written in FlabortTM that the block was successful.
Being "can't be prevented" is not an alibi in this case, which I scrutinizingly poured over in reading that one ability.
So, anyway. Let me get this straight. Your roleblock stops anybody from using a power that isn't kill, doctor, cop, roleblock/jailbreak, right? Were you told you were successful, or that my action failed? And it says that I was "interrupted" and blocked; perhaps I was targeted by you and somebody else?It says I was successful :o So you pretty much did not do a Kill/Doctor/Cop/Roleblock/Jailkeep.
Either that, or you're lying, Tiruin. Or possibly somebody has a role that stops me from doing something.
DA: Probably town. As confirmed. Possible rolechange (I guess, always a possibility in these games), but he can't be the Cult leader. Could be cultist. His kills can't be protected from, but replace the target instead.What exactly are you trying to say here? Am I probably town or not? If so, why do you want to lynch and/or kill me in the first place?QuoteI'm scum hunting right now. Effectively? Perhaps not. But in a fashion that amuses me, which is much better.
Stated that he's not exactly scumhunting at his best. Worrying... especially when you realize all the commotion that his scumhunting stirs up, which only gets people to suspect him, which is bad for the town. On the other hand, he doesn't feel too urgent. Which... normally, I wouldn't say is a terrible thing, but since there's a Cult Leader, that's pretty big. I'd give him a scummy lean because he is outright making himself seem scummy. Scum usually wouldn't do that, however, and there lies a problem. Still, he's wasting time.
Also: With his logic, no one is going to vote with him. Doesn't seem like he's actually scum hunting.
And it's gonna be hard to kill him. He still has a revive. If we lynch him, we're basically roleblocking him for a night.
I used a kill power. There's either a third party, or TolyK has a power that's screwing with our results.... why me, specifically? I have only made chats at night and tried not to die, so I don't see how I got into all this.
Flabort:1) Due to hopefully any replacements being due to lack of activity, this won't come up. If it does, I think so.
1) If a PC is replaced, can they still post in quicktopics?
2) Does their replacement get their infractions replaced?
3) Can a replaced player replace the player that replaced them?
4) If a player is modkilled (via 6 infractions), can they be revived?
5) If (4) happens, do they end up with 0 infractions and have their powers work?
6) If a player is killed and they end up with 0 infractions and their powers would cause them to not die, what exactly happens?
7) Can dead players take non-targeted actions?
8) Is this too many questions? :P
If you previously occupied that player slot, I guess. I don't know in what situation an NPC would have replaced into your player slot, but anything's possible. I never foresaw this line of questioning.7) Can dead players take non-targeted actions?Also this. I'd like this question answered.
So my question is this: If a player/NPC got four infractions, could I replace in for that player?
Also, another question: What happens when a dead player gets 4 infractions? What happens when a dead player gets 6 infractions?Why would you ASK this?! I don't know!
Sargent: If you resurrect me, I'll join your squad as a recruit. Sound fair?AFFIRMATIVE PRIVATE ZOMBIE FALLACY. I AM NOT A MEDIC, THOUGH, AND CANNOT CURE DEAD
Day action: Eat notquitethere's soul.EVENT!
Flabort: On distributing the roles, along with the base '2' roles people submitted [if they only submitted 2], did you randomly pick and roll who to send what to?Yes. It's the design of the setup.
Flabort: What does 'successful' mean when pertaining to an action with limitations?It means successful. Define "limitations". Sorry for being curt, but I need more context; Are you asking whether or not the claimed power is directly or indirectly a kill power, or whether it counts as one for the purposes of your power, or what? Because I can't answer questions about specific powers here, or about other people's powers in PM.
Also:RAAR buck buck
Sargent and Griffin, what alignment are you?
Also:NEVER REVEAL YOUR ALIGENCES TO THE ENEMY, PRIVATE. 20 laps around the subforum, GO GO GO!
Sargent and Griffin, what alignment are you?
Ineffective scumhunting, drawing attention to yourself while diverting attention from your target.I'm pretty sure this is the definition of bad play, not of scum play. :P
Votecount pls.I had another one, but FallacyofUrist revealed early D1 that he had a copy of the role (indirectly), so I gave it to him N1.So, you started with one, gave it to FoU, and eventually...
Hold up. Hold right on up.
I'll elaborate on this in a bit (as time allows - I still have lots to do as well as sleep before tomorrow -.-), but it seems to me like something doesn't add up. 4maskwolf for now.
Care to explain what this hunch of yours is, or are you happy to leave it ambiguous so you can get away with just about any explanation later?
Tolyk: Yes, I'd like to know too.I suspected 4mask being the original infraction-giver, who I believed was anti-town, and of faking the "which alignments are at the beginning of the day" role. This is also partially because I said something about a cult, and there, magically, was a cult alignment.
8 town, 2 mafia, 2 cult, outsider, town-ally.So I dunno what to make of it.
Anyway! Someone exchanged with me a role that I most likely believe they knew the name of (hint: It's specifically dealing with what happened yesterday--and given the shift of mention today,Did you give any more info about this?
I can easily rule out that Tawarochir is NOT the cult leader because I did something to him last night. :V Do you feel lucky like that? Well do you, punk?Not quite sure how what you did rules it out, tho.
I'm basically asking everyone's reads as of this moment. Also is massclaiming a good idea? I'm all for that too.I'm ok for claiming like 90% of my role. The 10% would be insurance. ;) Actions I have already claimed (2 chats).
I also would like to forward the idea of those who have flipped TOWN to claim everything they did earlier that they are comfy with [ie Basically claiming anything that helps narrow down the scum-spects] because this works as a double-edge for them if they have revived under another alignment[/b]
TMS -- Newbie. I'm leaning neutral because despite the >_>'y ness of his posts, he reminds me of TolyK.:D
TolyK -- >_> I don't know anymore. He's been a hectic bunch of tumbleweeds [mafia-relation not meant; figurative mention really meant.] because of his attitude the whole game. HOWEVER I don't think he's Mafia given his blatant outrightness in going 'everyone can win! I need notes on the Mafia ;D' <_> Though I usually assume that Mafia = teamplay and his play is...not team-oriented. Especially with that presumed 'Nuke-in-a-box' he's holding; still doesn't strike somewhat town-y because HE HASN'T USED IT. A very noteful thing for later on.Elaborated harder, ma'am.I'll elaborate on this in a bit (as time allows - I still have lots to do as well as sleep before tomorrow -.-), but it seems to me like something doesn't add up. 4maskwolf for now.Elaborate harder, now.
TolyK (II): Since you can speak, and since you can boat, update on your current everything-you-can-tell.I initially thought you were scum for suggesting this. NQT didn't elaborate. :P
I've also realized that nobody can win while NQT is...existing. I have a power to wipe him from existence but it activates only at night (inclusive with his roles--so he's basically not playing, as far as I know).
You kill the person dictated in the set of people who probably-aren't-the-cult-leader. :3Oh, so scum #'s and cult #'s are the same, and scum + cult = town + outsider? Whoo! :D
Why I say so is because
1. I fail math.[2 mafia]+[2 cult] = 4 scum.(Yeaaah I'm dum >_>)
But that hilariously means 3 town and 1 Outsider :v and I'm sure as fish that I'm town [barring a role I have that makes me silly :V]
But anyway. Logic time.
There are 9 players here. (Maybe barring yourself since you see 8? :V).
I'm grouping them into the roles we initially know, to seek out the C. Lead.
Tawarochir = ?
TheDarkStar = ?
The Moonlit Shadow = Possibility due to not having posted yet :v
Tiruin = I acted last night on Tawarochir; if I'm suspected to be the cult leader, that means I'm tied with him--I however have BLOCKED his [unconventional] action and he must have received a note from that, so awaiting his notice.
4maskwolf = ?
Shakerag = ?
Teneb = ?
Deus Asmoth = Is Grima. Can Daykill. Then the dude that gets killed has infractions.
TolyK (II) = Cannot act; is not cult leader [unless hilarity means he can act despite being infraction'd.]
Hector13 (I) = Outsider.
*FallacyOfUrist has not come back to life? Is TolyK the reviver then? [since he can't act and nobody has been revivified] :V
PFPIt was unintentinal, but I kept it when previewing. :>8) Is this too many questions? :PThe smiley was intentional I believe? :v
TDS has a kill.Where do you know this from?
I'm scum hunting right now. Effectively? Perhaps not. But in a fashion that amuses me, which is much better.
This seems legit, though. Wonder if that extra town was OSG?QuoteThere's 14 people on that list. There are only 13 players.My mistake. 1 less town then that.
TolyK: No longer seems to think everyone can win. I think he can use his abilities now - his two infractions only blocked him for last phase. We'll see what changed.I still believe it's possible for everyone to win (or at least most alive people), however I have 0 information on the cult.
He can talk to others, which is a pretty big deal. He's a big cultist target now - he can make a cultchat (assuming that there isn't one). That being said, he can also lie very easily. So... just remember that he could still lie. Just because it's only you and him doesn't mean he can't. And who knows? It might not be only you and him.
If the infraction giver was scum, then he's probably not scum. The only reason I can think of would be to stop one of his auto's if it was a bad auto.
His questions about the NPC infraction stuff is well deserved. However the only other thing he's done is a 'WTF' to DA's random voting which could be a reprimand (though that's dumb, if he wanted to do that he wouldn't have to tell us), or a fake. Since he really didn't back it up.
Neutral lean, a little too jumbled up.
Tawa, does eating NQT's soul prevent his other roles from working?Yeah. They get removed from the game entirely.
It didn't work though... anyone know why?
You roleflipped town. But your play is anti-town. That makes me think you're a cultist, DA.
TMS, I'm going to make this fairly simple for you. Back that up with something that isn't a petulant excuse or I will daykill you....Seriously.
You said it was ineffective yourself.But you're on my watch list. Even if you are Grima, dear.
Sorry for purging your reading comprehension :-\ and thanks for having the TolyK patience of reading through it like a nice guy :DIneffective scumhunting, drawing attention to yourself while diverting attention from your target.I'm pretty sure this is the definition of bad play, not of scum play. :P
(OR HE'S A JESTER!!!1! /jokes)
I feel really shitty (headache etc.) so I'll answer the standing questions directed to me and yeah.Tiruin: Those huge sentences with interjections sometimes burn my reading comprehension out. :PAnyway! Someone exchanged with me a role that I most likely believe they knew the name of (hint: It's specifically dealing with what happened yesterday--and given the shift of mention today,Did you give any more info about this?

I still believe it's possible for everyone to win (or at least most alive people), however I have 0 information on the cult.That's some pretty convincing stuff to give you that kind of hope :o
I also don't know who the other two mafia members are (never told :3). However, why the eating-NQT thing failed is unclear. Lots of things still unclear.
At least some of my roles still work. :3
Okay, quick question TolyK: Why the actual fuck would I fake claim and an ability that is ridiculously easy to check and prove the falsehood of? All it would take is a single neutral-or-friendly-to-town third party that wasn't on my list and I would have been immediately caught out in my lie. I could buy me doing that late in the game, but early on with most of the players still alive in a decently large game? Nope. You either think I'm an idiot, didn't think through the implications of your accusation, or are really, really stretching to try and implicate me.That's only one out of the many abilities a single player has in their hands, so I kinda see reasoning in TolyK's post there.
He dodged my question once, ignored it the second time and then made the same assertion that I'd asked him about without explaining it any further. I got annoyed. Sue me.So...could I ask why you're throwing the daykill out with an announcement when you can do that everyday?
Flabort: I think TolyK also mentioned he'd Extend other than me?I was lucky to see yours. It wasn't in an eye catching color.
Everyone: Please extend.
PFP (because posting 20 minutes from first uni class felt like a good idea :V)Hold on, didn't you try to daykill me yesterday? Hypocrisy much? :P
DA while I have TMS under my newbie cardzone, I can see some merit in his case (despite being somewhat mostly based on...your self-description of *being inefficient >_> TMS, expound on that* bit)TMS, I'm going to make this fairly simple for you. Back that up with something that isn't a petulant excuse or I will daykill you....Seriously.
While I get having a daykill is a nice bit of leverage you can thrust onto people, you're thrusting it...right in people's faces, without the open consideration people have onto OTHERS. While I also get that the orange bit is more of an intimidating force (which in my notes is a characteristic of your general play), there's a...lack of content in your posts thus far. This is somewhat correlational to my 'DA Scumhunting track' because it is narrowed down--not a bad thing (since you're in my green-zone of not being cult lleader//Mafia), but...
You have...like 6+ other targets. "Several" other targets. :v
TolyK<3
You're sweet and I love you just as much as anyone else, and the smilies are a topping on me seeing you as my silly playerbuddy [OOC], but bleh. :P
OK, so someone can suggest a (voluntary) role-swap with others.Sorry for purging your reading comprehension :-\ and thanks for having the TolyK patience of reading through it like a nice guy :DIneffective scumhunting, drawing attention to yourself while diverting attention from your target.I'm pretty sure this is the definition of bad play, not of scum play. :P

I feel really shitty (headache etc.) so I'll answer the standing questions directed to me and yeah.Tiruin: Those huge sentences with interjections sometimes burn my reading comprehension out. :PAnyway! Someone exchanged with me a role that I most likely believe they knew the name of (hint: It's specifically dealing with what happened yesterday--and given the shift of mention today,Did you give any more info about this?
[1]Quote from: TiruinI can easily rule out that Tawarochir is NOT the cult leader because I did something to him last night. :V Do you feel lucky like that? Well do you, punk?Not quite sure how what you did rules it out, tho.
[2]Quote from: TiruinI'm basically asking everyone's reads as of this moment. Also is massclaiming a good idea? I'm all for that too.I'm ok for claiming like 90% of my role. The 10% would be insurance. ;) Actions I have already claimed (2 chats).
I also would like to forward the idea of those who have flipped TOWN to claim everything they did earlier that they are comfy with [ie Basically claiming anything that helps narrow down the scum-spects] because this works as a double-edge for them if they have revived under another alignment[/b]
[2]Quote from: Tiruin's ReadsTolyK -- >_> I don't know anymore. He's been a hectic bunch of tumbleweeds [mafia-relation not meant; figurative mention really meant.] because of his attitude the whole game. HOWEVER I don't think he's Mafia given his blatant outrightness in going 'everyone can win! I need notes on the Mafia ;D' <_> Though I usually assume that Mafia = teamplay and his play is...not team-oriented. Especially with that presumed 'Nuke-in-a-box' he's holding; still doesn't strike somewhat town-y because HE HASN'T USED IT. A very noteful thing for later on.Elaborated harder, ma'am.I'll elaborate on this in a bit (as time allows - I still have lots to do as well as sleep before tomorrow -.-), but it seems to me like something doesn't add up. 4maskwolf for now.Elaborate harder, now.
But points!
[1] Not really...because I only received word of it today. Thing is, the role given to me was noted in my PMbox this day start. It had the option to return it to the one sending it to me as a free action, so...I did. And now have my initial role taken from me, back. As far as I know, it seems to be a role-switcher thing, in which the one who switched it (AND HASN"T CLAIMED YET) knows the role.
Now on the 'I most likely believe they knew the name of' bit, that role that was borrowed from me has a very specific name wording that I believe the player who submitted it and it was rolled randomly given, knows, given the instance of how I used it yesterday :P [Seriously.]
[2] ...I targeted Tawarochir last night; while that claim is non-evidence...ial, 4mask did note a change between cult #s. I'ma ssuming the cult leader's action is a night one (because that'd be hilarious if it was DAY), but yeah. While I can't offer any substantial proof that I'm not the cult leader (other than, y'know, telling you I'm not, since that's what anyone would say on bounds of an infraction UNLESS they back it up with cleverness-in-a-way :V), I'm curious how you see me as a possible target.
Y'know, other than connecting me to Tawarochir in a creative way. If that was one possible factor, I'd like to know that too!
4mask: Detail the #s given last N3
[2] 2 chats?Chat with TDS and DA (N1). Chat with NQT (N2). Free-action as insurance (unclaimed as of yet). Nothing N3 or any day, because blocked.
Expound, good sir.
Okay, quick question TolyK: Why the actual fuck would I fake claim and an ability that is ridiculously easy to check and prove the falsehood of? All it would take is a single neutral-or-friendly-to-town third party that wasn't on my list and I would have been immediately caught out in my lie. I could buy me doing that late in the game, but early on with most of the players still alive in a decently large game? Nope. You either think I'm an idiot, didn't think through the implications of your accusation, or are really, really stretching to try and implicate me.First off, neither the mafia nor cult would counter-claim. Secondly, it's a fairly decent gamble. There were also talks of role/wincon obscuration, so you could've fallen back on that. No, I don't really think you're an idiot or implicating, just stating my suspicions. Defensive much?
Not defensive, fed up with idiocy. Pretty big difference there.Okay, quick question TolyK: Why the actual fuck would I fake claim and an ability that is ridiculously easy to check and prove the falsehood of?

4mask: Detail the #s given last N3Detail the numbers... what? I gave the numbers I received from flabort, and that's all the information I'm given about those numbers. What more details do you expect?
Let's Extend.I'm sure everyone has actions which might make everyone else suspicious. It's the nature of this kind of power-heavy game. But, anyway, IDGAF if my powers are suspicious or not, I just wanted everyone (mostly scum) to think I was a Jester and leave me alone. That didn't go quite as planned.
Shakerag: You 'broadcasted' your alignment as Jester, but didn't post too much D1. So... I'm guessing you have some actions which might make us suspicious?
You apparently visited the Tumbleweed twice N1. Explain?
He had a 'The Role That flabort Gives To People Who Have Annoyed Him' which is currently stopping Hector from winning (if Tolyk did the only thing he could, give that role to someone with an infraction). Hmm... if someone gave you an infraction, you could give away all of those roles, right? On the other hand, giving someone at least 2 more votes might be dangerous.
I currently have 3 of those roles (because I had them AND two infractions, which delayed my ability to use actions for yet another cycle), which I intend to drop off to someone who can get rid of them. Or anyone, really, because I'm selfish. :PI turned that role into an NPC. Now, in theory, you should be able to give those roles to said NPC ...
Shakerag, if I were to give one to you (to not block), could you transformigify them?
If he's going to insist on being a liar and hypocrite, I see no reason not to remind him that my words are backed with nuclear weapons.He dodged my question once, ignored it the second time and then made the same assertion that I'd asked him about without explaining it any further. I got annoyed. Sue me.So...could I ask why you're throwing the daykill out with an announcement when you can do that everyday?
Other than the cause being annoyance :O
My case against DA was that he was being ineffective and wasting time earlier.How?
He has his vote on an NPC, and has only been talking to me.Demonstrably false.
No scumhunting.How?
DAWhat does that have to do with whether I was wasting time or not?
1. Didn't get votes on whoever you thought was scum.
2. (was) True. As you can see by that votecount.Perhaps you should consider the possibility that that's not what I was referring to in my reply then.
3. Still only talking to me.I talked to two other people in the same post that you're replying to. If you're going to make bullshit cases, you could at least make ones that don't rely on nobody else actually reading the thread.
Don't even have your vote on me, or a FoS, so you aren't even scumhunting.Should I have my vote on you?
Ok, you just say that my case isn't a real one, then why do you even respond? You just repeatedly say that I 'didn't explain' my case and vote on you. Which... I did. 3 times.So, what? I should just ignore you and hope you go away? That's not how this game works. And no. You didn't. You threw out a few half hearted buzz phrases in the hopes that it would pass for an explanation. It doesn't. What evidence do you have that supports anything taht you're trying to push on me.
And considering that you're accusing me of wasting time, I'd like to know how you justify talking about no one other then myself today. I'd also ask why you seem to have a problem with my apparent wasting time, but have no issue with using the lynch on someone that you know is going to immediately come back to life.
Shakerag, are Griffin and Sargent guaranteed to be non-scum or just not mafia? It just seems odd that it'd take three nights for the cult to convert someone and still be able to.My ability says the NPCs can not be mafia, but they may be any other alignment. So ... technically they could be cult-aligned I guess? The cult wouldn't be able to control their votes though.
Going for an everybody wins scenario is honestly rather pointless: while it would be nice to figure out a way to do it, all it takes is one person sabotaging it and it doesn't happen, which could result in a town loss. I'm not willing to risk that in order to ensure an "everyone wins" that could be undermined by the mafia or cult.Not a fan of the prisoner's dilemma, eh?
4maskwolf:Not a fan, not a fan.Going for an everybody wins scenario is honestly rather pointless: while it would be nice to figure out a way to do it, all it takes is one person sabotaging it and it doesn't happen, which could result in a town loss.

So who are your top scumpicks then?
1. Look:Ineffective scumhunting, drawing attention to yourself while diverting attention from your target.I'm pretty sure this is the definition of bad play, not of scum play. :P
Tolyk agrees too. Fairly sure most everyone does.
Ok TMS. Your case makes no sense, I think you are a jester, and it would be good if you got daykilled.There isn't a Jester. Unless you don't believe 4maskwolf's list, in which case you should say so. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you are scum (of either persuasion), though I will not bother with setting up a case since you are currently unkillable.
Aren't there a few outsiders and third parties?1 outsider. Hector. 1 town-ally. Tumbleweed.Spoiler: Action claim (click to show/hide)
Aren't there a few outsiders and third parties?1 outsider. Hector. 1 town-ally. Tumbleweed.Spoiler: Action claim (click to show/hide)
DA:That's stupid. Do you want to know why it's stupid? I'll tell you. You think I'm the newly converted cultist. The thing about cultists is that even if you lynch one every day the town will still lose because the cult leader can just convert more. Even worse, you already know that I can just immediately come back if you lynch me. So you're trying to lynch someone who is both completely expendable even if you're right and immortal in any case. You've given no indication of who you think could be the cult leader if you're right. So you're pursuing a dead end case with no idea what to do afterwards. Waste of everyone's time, especially mine.
In response to your question: I think you're scum. So me focusing on you isn't wasting time.
1. Look:This doesn't say that Tolyk agrees with you, regardless of whether you're saying it's about being scum or playing badly.Ineffective scumhunting, drawing attention to yourself while diverting attention from your target.I'm pretty sure this is the definition of bad play, not of scum play. :P
Tolyk agrees too. Fairly sure most everyone does.
2. Then what were you referring to?Well, gee, mister. I quoted something with two points in it and told you that the first one wasn't the one I was referring to. Hmm... I wonder what I could possibly have been talking about then? This is a tough one. Perhaps if we think about it together, real hard we can figure this puzzler out.
3. You talked to Tiruin about me. You talked about the NPC's, who are the only ones besides me and Tiruin you've said a word to.Incorrect. False. Lies. Untrue. Bullshit, is what I'm getting at.
4. Then what are you doing?I'm pointing out that your 'case' on me is idiotic.
Hmmm...So increased activity means that I'm scum now? It's a good thing that there's absolutely nothing else it could be linked to, like me getting access to my role actions.
Furthermore:8 town, 2 mafia, 2 cult, outsider, town-ally.Right. Assuming that 4mask is telling the truth (would anyone be opposed to me giving him enough infractions to get him modkilled so that we can check if he's [still] town?) then the cult is actually capable of converting people after all. So it might be worth claiming if anyone blocked someone during night 1 and/or 2 but not 3 so that we can try to get rid of the leader before this becomes an issue.
Furthermore, we know that neither hector nor the tumbleweed were converted (unless Sargent or Griffin feel like claiming outsider or town-ally), so that's two people we can rule out. Griffin and Sargent are also unlikely targets since the cult leader likely wasn't aware that they were in the game when targeting their conversion. So that leaves 9 players as potential conversions or scum. I know that I'm town, meaning that there's a 50% chance of hitting scum of some sort even by just lynching randomly. Those odds aren't entirely awful. Also, OSG is confirmed as town once he comes back I guess, since the non-town faction numbers are unchanged (besides cult going up one- unless the WIFOM laden thought that just occurred to me is true).
Following on from that, Tolyk probably wouldn't be so open about wanting everyone to win as scum and TDS can't be lynched... so...
Tiruin, random chance tells me that you're scum. If you admit it now we can lynch you rather than forcing me to give you a bunch of infractions.
4mask, did you get a list of alignments during day 1, and if so was there a jester? We might as well sort out whether Shakerag is changing alignments every day.
DA's activity spikes on D4. The same day a new cultist appears.
Shakerag, by reordering the action resolutions, can you do stuff like putting kills before protects?I'm not sure what else you think I could have meant by what I said. Yes, that's what my ability does.
Deus Asmoth:I just wanted to clarify. It seems odd that it's worded that way rather than just negating protects since it seems to be essentially the same thing, but eh.Shakerag, by reordering the action resolutions, can you do stuff like putting kills before protects?I'm not sure what else you think I could have meant by what I said. Yes, that's what my ability does.
I don't personally see any benefit to me or anyone else (non-scum) from using it, but if you've got a brilliant insight I'm all ears.
1. So we should ignore converts? That's cool. If we kill you, at least you can't do anything that night.Do you think that lynching me will give you any indication of who the cult leader is? Because since you don't seem to have any idea at the moment, I'd like to know how you think that wasting (at the very minimum) three days to get me to stay dead and giving the cult leader free reign in the meantime is a good idea.Quote2. I don't know. Just say it.Seriously? Wanting you to read something you've already quoted is too much work.Quote3. ... Not much I can say. It's pretty much true...'Pretty much' true or actually true, which was what you were arguing before? And three points. No, it's not, you liar. Second, you seem to be ridiculously surprised that someone is addressing the arguments you're using to vote for them rather than rolling over and playing dead. Third, you're a massive hypocrite for even pretending that it's a valid reason for your vote on me.Quote4. But it's not though.Yes. It is.Quote5. Reaaally? Did you use those actions to get that analysis? You had access to all/most of that information the day before.I'm sorry you feel that way.
...That was never part of my argument.
DA's activity spikes on D4. The same day a new cultist appears.
You've never pointed that out.Yes. I have. Repeatedly. Are you actually being serious or are you just trying to annoy me?
This part: your accusations are hypocritical and could apply to almost any other player in the thread
Why now?
And considering that you're accusing me of wasting time, I'd like to know how you justify talking about no one other than myself today.The same post also points out that you'd be wasting a lot more time than I ever could even if you were right, but you don't seem to think it's wasting time if you do it.
Also, I think TolyK is jaded from all the stunts I have pulled in the past :PEeh, I've stopped you in your tracks when it mattered.
A mysterious force warps and slows down time!The actual fuck?
I read that as "A mysterious face".Define "good".
Bahaha. xD I need to sleep.
Either way, this is good.
Please do.Oh?
I mean, it's good for me. But it's too obvious if that's it.
Oh there's a tie.So you note there's a tie between two players who each have two votes, so then you vote for someone who isn't being voted for at all. And it looks like a pressure vote, mostly. Keeping up appearances much?
Humph.
Tawa, are you going to say anything of consequence for the rest of the day?
Oh there's a tie.Sorry! I've been playing the new FE game a lot lately, haven't thought much about Mafia. :I I'll post observations and such in a little while.
Humph.
Tawa, are you going to say anything of consequence for the rest of the day?
I've already stated I don't think either of them is scum, so why should I vote for either of them?So convince me to vote for someone else then.
Heeheehee!Hey! Didn't you get your bah post yet?
I hadn't had my bah post. Now you've coaxed me into posting after my bah post. Do I get an infraction?Heeheehee!Hey! Didn't you get your bah post yet?
4maskwolf:If I had any serious suspicions I would, but right now given the lack of actionable information a random lynch is as good as any.I've already stated I don't think either of them is scum, so why should I vote for either of them?So convince me to vote for someone else then.
You sound like DA, minus the statistics. Reads on him?Oh for fucks sakes... how many times do I have to say I think both of you are town. That means you and Deus Asmoth, as shocking as that may seem.
Eeyeah, uh, this is me. :P One of the unclaimed powers I have is that if I don't vote or act during the day (non-inclusive of this power anyway :V)--the day doesn't end, since it's a day power.A mysterious force warps and slows down time!The actual fuck?
Considering who keeps talking about them (reminded of Teneb and 4mask but I do feel there're more in the periphery of my memory), I'm pretty blunt. But I'm glad I'm making that read list :VErm... I think you've got the wrong people. I don't talk about the NPC's outside of stating the known alignments of the original NPC's in the context of the alignment list I received.
Uh, see: Webster's.I read that as "A mysterious face".Define "good".
Bahaha. xD I need to sleep.
Either way, this is good.
Too obvious: It's so much buddying that it's framing.Uh... sure. I'm not quite sure where the buddying comes in? Not wanting to see you die?
Jokes aside, as to why an extension is good here: I don't think either of them is scum, at least at this point (TMS is doing some meh things, but more dumb and less scummy).Why I extended is on behalf of quite much everything thus far--people aren't in general, scumhunting, and from what I see [on the lack of explaining why people targeted each other], there's a lack of reasoning behind it and a rather 'more' reliance on roles and abilities.
Alriiiiiight.Yup. Also, apparently flabort is crap at wording things. So I can't actually control how those NPCs vote. Bugger all.
You can give your roleblocking roles to THE GRIFFIN. THE SARGENT was made with the sharkwerm role, and Shakerag said each of the NPC's is also given the role they were made with.
Of course I mean GRIFFIN. Ugh.I suppose the technical answer to that question would be: flabort.
Is there anyone who can destroy roles?
I think DA can. I can get roles, though not today.Is there anyone who can destroy roles?
I'd like that. I'd totally like that.
I can destroy roles if I have them. Why?No one can win while a certain role, currently held by the deceased NQT, exists.
I can't. Tawa said that he could, but only for people that are dead. Plus he can end up with the role he wants to destroy, which is troublesome.I think DA can. I can get roles, though not today.Is there anyone who can destroy roles?
I'd like that. I'd totally like that.
Tiruin: You said the day only ends when you make an action, but wasn't your returning my role and getting yours back one?
Mod: What happens to a player if the game ends while they are temporarily out of the game, like OSG is now?They do not win or lose. If they have to file it under win or loss or tie, tie is probably the best way to file it.
Tiruin: You said the day only ends when you make an action, but wasn't your returning my role and getting yours back one?. . . ???
*cough*I can destroy roles if I have them. Why?No one can win while a certain role, currently held by the deceased NQT, exists.
Mandatory Shakeragian Shenanigans
(Auto) You cannot win while...: If any team or player would win, the first person who died who's living would prevent that victory is resurected. They retain their access to the dead-chat.
(Auto) ...this role is in play: This role functions even if it's owner is dead.
Unrelated to the above but...
Mod: What happens to a player if the game ends while they are temporarily out of the game, like OSG is now?
About TDS: He's always claimed to have a kill immunity?Where?
I have reason to strongly suspect that all investigations will fail.Details, TDS
Which is what I mean by my memory :PConsidering who keeps talking about them (reminded of Teneb and 4mask but I do feel there're more in the periphery of my memory), I'm pretty blunt. But I'm glad I'm making that read list :VErm... I think you've got the wrong people. I don't talk about the NPC's outside of stating the known alignments of the original NPC's in the context of the alignment list I received.
Can we get a votecount up in here?Not right away; as soon as I'm able, though. (IRL stuff)
I actually trust TDS the most, here. Shakerag is also kinda close, however for no apparent reason... >.>
DA: I still don't trust you and think that you're a cultist, but we've got more important things to do for now. Such as lynch mafia (or cult leader). Both of which you aren't (unless of some cult leader role that passes to the newest convert.) So Unvote.
Everyone: I'd like to know if someone can get rid of NQT's Shakerage Shenanigans role. Don't tell us how if you don't want to - you may have reasons for hiding it AKA might tell scum too much. Anyone?
Speaking of roles that stop people from winning: TDS. Very inactive. Dropped a 'Who can get rid of roles?' question, which if he'd been paying attention he'd know Shakerag did. Before that, remarked on me and DA early, before most others. Thought I was Jester at first, meaning he's not paying attention again.

Eheh.
That's cute. There is in fact invisible text, but it's not listed in the "change color" dropdown box.
You tried white text for invisibility in a forum where a decent percentage of people use darkling.
1. It might specifically say something something about scum that it would help scum to know.
2. It means TDS. Well not really. But you'll see why.

Why do you think I'm scummy and why are you wasting your vote on me? Everyone has already tried to lynch me once, you know.
I've told everyone that I'm kill immune and people still don't seem to get it, so I provided evidence that yes, I am actually kill-immune.I'm PFPing for now because the lurkertracker//post tracker is being silly, but no--you have not provided evidence other than your word and vague posts alluding to protecting the self [ie What actions you've claimed all throughout].
I've told everyone that I'm kill immune and people still don't seem to get it, so I provided evidence that yes, I am actually kill-immune.
If you don't believe me, then go ahead and try to kill me. The only problem is that you're wasting a day that could be used to find scum.You aren't proven to not be scum, by the way. Unless I missed something. This subtle reinforcement was an underlying note in your posts in my notes :O
TMS, why did you suddenly realise that lynching me is pointless now?Here's the first question I actually asked you, from that post. Note how your response doesn't answer that question in any way. Also note that you were initially planning to use the extension to convince people that I'm scum and have given up on that aim after a sum total of no effort whatsoever.
No, it isn't. It's just that yours have been questionable (and questioned, as seen), and it's GOOD that you've been having interactions, because that way when (if?) you flip we get more information.
I'd personally prefer you were a cultist, though, instead of mafia. Or cult leader, even better.
Ragshake wins whether he's dead or not, and I can't win while he's in the game. *shrug*We're having much fun with paradoxes here in the roles and the game seems heavily skewed towards people who HAVE THE ABILITY TO WIPE ROLES which is blatantly unfair [and/or makes some town cred, if town, or whatever confirmation towards alignment there is] because the only other person in my notes thus far is Teneb's 'can only win if dead, can only die if win' (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6792409#msg6792409).
I can't daykill Shakerag. I already tried to use my kill and someone blocked it.There was no EVENT! unlike the rest of us who actually did our actions :P
Ragshake was lynched actually. OSG was banished (presumably; he has been removed from the game)...Well there goes a big paragraph out of my post :V
TDS Could you have been more clearer? (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6791314#msg6791314) I've scanned the deaths in the night thus far and I feel like a hypothesis comes to me--that significant note of yours has been the reason ALL kill-type actions have failed [ie Mine and Tawarochir's] that was after FallacyOfUrist's Death which had an auto that MADE kills be unblockable (20% chance of error) (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6806719#msg6806719). Linking it to your attitude thus far, you've been very lackluster in scumhunting, and you haven't come forward in details into your action claims. This coincides with my request to DA for confirmation--DA must act and make his daykill to give credence to this since I DOUBT that two people could've been roleblocked into day-kill-acting.
I have sent Flabort a query as to DA's ability to daykill. This can be reconfirmed by Teneb [if he isn't scum :V]
Everyone We have an accountable number of unspoken incidences, one of which (since I'm not yet done MANUALLY drifting through the thread since ALL lurkertrackers/posttrackers are broken :'( ) is this significant note (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6791782#msg6791782). It has Ragshake's poke, but we can confirm that Ragshake wasn't the one who did all that MASS VOTE REDIRECT (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6816852#msg6816852) and TMS hasn't noted any information about doing that himself//knowing anyone doing that to him. [Either/or, accounting for all possible scenarios here].
Still waiting on the post :PThe most horrible thing about having unstable internet (at home) is to think that you sent in a HUEG post and then coming back on a more-stable internet and then seeing NUP, no post.
Deus Asmoth: You can give people infractions, correct? How many can you give at a time?DA wasn't the one, and I believe the one giving the infractions did not claim their role :O
'cause I think nobody would be interested in doing it, seeing as Ragshake is already dead.Well, if you revive Ragshake, I can NK him, which also has the added effect of removing him from the game for two cycles. If the game isn't over by that time, they re-enter the game still dead.
Ragshake wins whether he's dead or not, and I can't win while he's in the game. *shrug*
If I had another role, I'd be working toward that. But I don't. Ah well.
Anyone wana do it anyway?
That depends. What's the average cult wincon? If they lose when the leader dies, then it'd be less worth it. We'd still know that he's Cult Leader then, and we could roleblock him forever.Hold on. If you're a normal townie, why would you roleblock the leader forever?
Here. 4mask said he gave the Annoying role to FoU N1, which FoU "revealed (indirectly)" that he had. That means that there were at least 2 copies the first day. And I currently have 3, including recieving one early on with an infraction.I had another one, but FallacyofUrist revealed early D1 that he had a copy of the role (indirectly), so I gave it to him N1.So, you started with one, gave it to FoU, and eventually...
Hold up. Hold right on up.
I'll elaborate on this in a bit (as time allows - I still have lots to do as well as sleep before tomorrow -.-), but it seems to me like something doesn't add up. 4maskwolf for now.
Currently I'm fine with lynching TMS since he's become very active and (more importantly) very defensive this last day (don't even remember any valuable content from BEFORE he jumped on DA, which is actually a point in his favor) AND (Important!) I don't believe the other candidates (DA? that's it?) are worth lynching, at least not yet. Lynching DA, for example, would only give us information on whether he's a cult member now or not, while TMS would give a lot of abilities + possibly alignment.That's cuz you've thrown in your lot with TDS or DA and are grilling TMS, without making sure what he's saying is actually what he's saying instead of implications or impressions or assumptions, as per vote patterns and banter has given me insight into :V I'm also aware that you possibly know the OTHER PEOPLE WITH LOW DAY-SPEAKING-STUFF have said things and somehow are not within your mention of comparison to TMS [while I agree his mentions of cultist//DA is strange, it's reasonable when you see DA's erratic behavior from a non-team-oriented eye. This correlates my idea that a newbie would be invested in. And somehow he's being hit for it {esp when you include DA's playstyle being like a brick wall. Tough and grumpy.}]
After that, we'll see what comes of TMS. At worst I'll be speaking through TDS or DA. :P
Shakerag: In this post (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6843052#msg6843052), what do you think will happen in 2 cycles? The wording has a certain tone to it.Like, if I use that ability? Well, whoever I kill is returned to the game, still dead. Otherwise they are removed from the game. And dead. I'm not sure if the "removing from the game for 2 cycles" thing happens if the kill doesn't happen.
DA's playstyle being like a brick wall. Tough and grumpy.:'(
Well you're definitely allied, if that was questioned :P::)

After dinner I'll type up a post about why.

Aha, so cult leader, by your words. Don't be surprised if I end up as a cult member as well (though I have... tricks up my sleeve... if I get to use them :-\), if this crap is a slowed conversion.This is weird as shit. Out of all of the possible and (by Occam's Razor) more likely scenarios for why the cult didn't convert nights one or two, among them "The cult leader had other powers to use", "the cult leader was role blocked", etc., TolyK picks "Slowed conversion". Without more than one conversion there's no way to be sure that he's right, which would be suspiciously prescient, but it's one of the things in his play that pinged my attention.
Alright, what I see from information so far:This last point also pinged my notice, because he says, supposedly without any prior knowledge of the actual roles in the game, "no sk, possibly a cult". Obviously if he were actually a cult leader he would be able to surmise that there probably wasn't an SK due to balance issues, but even with the excuse of "I have a power that turns someone into a serial killer" (which is a really weird power to claim to begin with, even in a game like this). This was another post from his early game that I noticed and took note of for later.
- 3+ people have boxes of Orden.
- We have an everyone-wins scenario, but not on the first day. It probably involves TDS killing himself.
- Shakerag's twin probably steals roles.
- We have a mafia, no SK (by the looks of it), and possibly a cult. At least based on "no double teams", which could be broken here.
Also, since people didn't get it:Hmm...
The Quicktopic I made N1 was between Box of Orden holders/users. Night 1! By then there was only 1 cult leader and that's it, by 4mask's words.
Stop trying to fit your damned cult in everywhere, jeez. :p
It's probably also worth mentioning that the chat was created on night 2, and the number of cult members only increased during night 3 if 4mask is to be believed.Oho! :o
Well you're definitely allied, if that was questioned :P
Funny, I'd think I'd belong in that category, don't you? Though now that you've said that... it's possible that you are the one with the box of Orden that changes posts. I'll check tonight, ;)Yo, lots of questions directed to you up there dude :O
Hope it clears up soon!Have patience, my young padawan, beyond a quick poke in here to bitch about anti-beaglerush I've been busy all evening. I'm here now, though, give me a bit to put together my case from my scattered thoughts.TolyK

*waits*
I'll try to write up a post pretty soon. Today was not an easy day, since I did not sleep last night and the appropriately-named "waters of march" have started. In short, the entire city (plus others) are in complete disarray (exploding power lines, fallen trees, flooding...) thanks to a storm.Yoo tew \o/
I didn't mean it that way ._. I mean your scumhunting playstyle sometimes has a rough but astute tone (which is why I made it like a brick wall, it gets the point across--not bluntly, but plainly and acknowledge-...etically :P)DA's playstyle being like a brick wall. Tough and grumpy.:'(
Just got home. More to follow, hopefully.
I checked just now. I did make the chat N1. They got invited starting D2, technically, but I made it N1.Where is that opened the 2nd box and how in the world is that even possible? :V
Why those three and not the person who claimed to have made them (who has the role that makes them)? I felt 3 was enough, + DA already flipped town by that point.
Also, has everyone forgotten that DA claimed to have opened the 2nd box and gotten post manipulation powers? Where everyone voted him?
Also, Tawar has basically been absent indeed, though his (her?) actions were trying to... eat NQT's soul (and failing) and... well... :PTawa is a He, and an awesome He at that. I'm the only She here :P
Either way I'd be OK with a day end now, this has been dragging on for a while and it seems the last 2-3 pages have been slight back-and-forths with little knowledge gained.That's cuz very few people have been posting :V [like yoooooooooou], especially on 'hey, day end please? :)' but lacking note on how I can day end -_- I offered a plan darn'it! (but seriously: I get no feedback on what I said.)
... Also, has everyone forgotten that DA claimed to have opened the 2nd box and gotten post manipulation powers? Where everyone voted him?
ButQuoteWhy is there specific differentiation when...nobody even knows which box does what? What's the use of that?Because if they're cult, (which I think TDS is) we'd need to lynch the one with post manipulation powers first. So that's out of the way.
...Any thoughts on my plan on day end though? Anyone? .-.I... can't find it. Unless you mean daykilling whomever has the motes votes, causing number 2 to get lynched instead. Also, have you noticed that role is lying? It says it is the only daykill, but now DA has one too.
Anyway, Shakerag, how do you feel about the fact that OSG will try to kill you when he returns?Wait, what? Since when is this a thing?
Teneb:I traded one of my roles for his role that lets him try to kill you as many times as he wants. He can undo the trade at any time as a free action, as I found out when Tiruin did similar (as in, I found out it didn't cost an action). The role I traded with him will be pretty useless since he used its one-shot and all that will be left is a rather useless auto.Anyway, Shakerag, how do you feel about the fact that OSG will try to kill you when he returns?Wait, what? Since when is this a thing?
Hold on. Can you trade roles if you know the action/role name, or is it random?Random (on their end, I pick which of mine). Once a day, already did today.
Can you do this only once a night/day/phase?
If nothing happens within the next 18ish hours, I will change one of Tiruin's posts and force a lynch. This day has gone on far too long and there is almost no more discussion - we need info from a roleflip.'Almost no more discussion' because people haven't been proactive in as much as I would like -_- (esp Shakerag and several others).
Can we please end the day?Votecount first
Ahh, mah gawd.All the bloody activelurkers who aren't posting and instead giving token posts instead. Also not-DA, FoU, Hector (Tawarochir having a very lackluster streak of content and activity thus far! And is contending with my darn claim on him but it'd be WEIRD because if it's not a kill-despite-him-saying-it's a kill, it doesn't make sense to say it's something a cultist would do, so he's either Mafia or Town.), and probably-by-memory Teneb because he acted last night on me to swap a role, and didn't use it (also @Teneb, I asked Flabort about it and his answer was straightly...cryptic o_O), so his attitude thus far doesn't make me think he's scum, on a team, or the cult leader since any discussion about a cultist's ability-actions cannot have occurred before this MORNING thanks to 4mask. Which is another tangent I'll pull up--this goes parallel with TMS' actions; how he worked with suspicion, despite seemingly feeling narrowminded, makes reasonable sense! [Do note logic != reason]
Tiruin, who are you most suspicious of and why?
Wait, you tried to daykill me again? Well, this might be interesting.Dude :v Content analysis. I was only saying that because I stated what exactly my daykill works on explicitly many times before. :V
Worst case is that you fail yet again, I guess... >.>
Assuming I can action tomorrow and I get a bit more knowledge, I'll spill some more of the teams. :DHow townlike. :V Y u no spill moar now Mr. Middleman. (They're baddies because of the lacking content analysis and I am a grumpy old hag :I)
(If dead - through TDS/DA, and if they don't talk then they're baddies :D)
Bwack? Grrrrr... Buck Roar Buck RrrrrolyK.
Well said, soldier. TolyK, 30 laps around the compound.Votecount
I think that merits another Shakerag for you.Oh my god, you blatant scumbag. TMS TMS TMS
You... stole OSG's votes?No, you scumbucket. All three of those votes are mine.
This game is clearly flabort just exercising a vendetta against me. >:(
Hey NQT, did the scumteam try to kill me last night?
And how do you know that?Hey NQT, did the scumteam try to kill me last night?
Nope. TDS, who is unkillable it appears.
I'm also curious. Especially because I can't kill anyone.And how do you know that?Hey NQT, did the scumteam try to kill me last night?
Nope. TDS, who is unkillable it appears.
EBWOP: Some messages relayed from Deus Asmoth:
Shakerag: Did you survive a bomb or something similar? If you did, what happened to TMS?
NotQuiteThere: You are mafia and so you kind of need to die.
Everyone: Does anyone have a role that they can use to give NQT two infractions to stop all his powers from working?
Hey NQT, did the scumteam try to kill me last night?Well, someone did, since I protected you from a kill (I did get told I stopped a kill).
Mandatory Shakeragian ShenanigansWe have a cult, so how could the town win? Unless its one of the third parties, but... it doesn't make sense. So... did the cult compromise half the living players before NQT revived?
(Auto) You cannot win while...: If any team or player would win, the first person who died who's living would prevent that victory is resurected. They retain their access to the dead-chat.
(Auto) ...this role is in play: This role functions even if it's owner is dead.
Which role do you want me to return?The one I gave you? Discworld's Death, you know, the one you used to leave the game?
Could someone maybe revive Ragshake?I think I am the only reviser (necomancer with a jetpack and a bazooka) and both it's uses have already been used. Whatever that dead guy said about being a reviver is complete bullshit I revived Deus Asmoth night one, not him. And I revived you, Hector night two. Your Welcome, I guess.
TanebYup. See, I got it off NQT. Quite lucky. Since I gave your role to him, you got it instead! Too bad DA is super dead, though, but if you are willing to play along, the both of us can get rid of that role tomorrow!
You didn't give me back my role. You gave me this one:

I am pretty sure I figured out how to win.
No.I am pretty sure I figured out how to win.
Details?
Oh, well that's useful.
Lets see how to break this game now...
I believe I have a strategy for how everyone can win, now. Literally everyone, except maybe the NPC's.
It would require coordination, and I'd tell you now but I'm still making sure this would work as I intend it to.
I'm bad and I'm back! Did you miss me?So, uh, you get 3 infractions now? Plus the one infraction or you just got 1 infraction? :P
Okay, kids this is a puzzle. Team Mean is going to keep resurrecting when they'd lose otherwise so there's no point killing me just yet. We've got more pressing matters. This is going to be like one of those episodes where Ash teams up with Team Rocket to face down the bigger threat. In this instance we got a cult in our midst and I need to know what you all plan to do about it.
WHERE'S YOUR INFRACTIONS D:<Hey NQT, did the scumteam try to kill me last night?
Nope. TDS, who is unkillable it appears.
Guys, I seriously think we can't reply because we're dead DESPITE BEING DEAD and infractions :vI'm also curious. Especially because I can't kill anyone.And how do you know that?Hey NQT, did the scumteam try to kill me last night?
Nope. TDS, who is unkillable it appears.
We have a cult, so how could the town win? Unless its one of the third parties, but... it doesn't make sense. So... did the cult compromise half the living players before NQT revived?By LYNCHING OR KILLING CULT and then GETTING MAFIA OFF :D
The Moonlit Shadow has died! They were Mafia! The have been REMOVED FROM THE GAME (until day 7)!TEAM THE FOR THE WIN!
This game is clearly flabort just exercising a vendetta against me. >:(This game is clearly flabort just exercising a vendetta against ME! :V
From Deus Asmoth:How's about y'all find cult instead of being itchy towards NQT, hmm? It's plaintively obvious that EVERYONE knows NQT's stuff by now. He's like the elephant in the room and you're still giving direction onto him. Dude. Seriously.
Lynch NQT to force Tiruin to revive. Then have Shakerag kill Tiruin (and this will apparently bypass NQT's role). If it works, then we only have a cult left to deal with. If it doesn't work, then there is no cult and my role blocked the kill.
How's about you break down your 'everybody wins scheme', Cult Leader TolyK? (No I can't vote or anything. :V)Oh, well that's useful.

[color=]Red Tiruin[/color]I..I'll just cry in a corner now.
I know Flabort said somewhere that there was no deadchat. So how could you have put it in the deadchat.
But I'm SERIOUSLY disappointed in our competition this game -_- Especially in SHAKERAG. I looked up at you(r activity) dude. :-\*pat pat*
Fine UnvoteIt used to be Deathsword, no "s" in the end. But, if you want to lynch me so bad... Teneb.
Deathswords
Did I spell it right?
Shakerag: Did you survive a bomb or something similar? If you did, what happened to TMS?Well, it was my bomb on TMS ... but, yeah, I technically was caught in the blast but survived it.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaah.So, targeted TMS last night too, eh?
NUKULAR BLAST!
I have one that will randomize targets of whoever I target, with the chance of success getting lower the more people I target.Have you used your target randomization? If you target only 1 target, is the success rate 100%? Also, is this who you target PER NIGHT or PER ACTION?
And finally, I have Donald Trump's political career, which gives me three votes, and I can build a wall around someone, making them immune and blocking them.:P
If I target one person, 15% chance of failure. If I target 2 people, 30% chance of failure for each person. 3 people, 45% chance of failure per person. etc.OK, so it's you targeting. That means what I thought of won't work.
Teneb, has the "take a vacation" ability gotten refilled?No.
Teneb, has the "take a vacation" ability gotten refilled?No.
Shakerag, I'm still pretty annoyed that you decided to stealthily vote me through your NPC's. Why?For the last time, you #%&$, I do not have any control over the NPCs. If I did, why wouldn't I have had them vote TMS at the end of the day as well? (REASONS!)
Also, does anyone happen to need more actions the night after next? I can give people a few more. I can also double actions tonight but all doubled actions will hit the same target.I could do with some more actions, that'd be handy thanks.
Once we remove the other disruptive role (and probably remove the mafia), I'll have Deus Asmoth give me a bunch of infractions to get me modkilled (unless someone can remove the role from me first). I don't block losing, only winning, so we should be fine lynching the mafia after the other disruptive role is gone.The problem with your plan is that it seems DA is not coming back (since it was OSG who revived him).
Also, does anyone happen to need more actions the night after next? I can give people a few more. I can also double actions tonight but all doubled actions will hit the same target.
Alright, the Big Plan.I'm listening. What would the plan require?
Theoretically, we can break the game by turning everyone into town. Literally. It requires cooperation from at worst everyone (to not screw it up) or at least the anti-Town roles. Those who wouldn't comply for some reason would just be killed off, I guess, or replaced. :p
Also, it would be super awesome if everyone would give me a list of potential cult suspects. If I happen to die somehow I have the potential to take ... a number of other players with me.I don't know but I would advise not wasting a kill on someone kill immune, also I haven't been compromised by the cult (as proved by my role flip and the fact I was revived as a mafia member). So Anyone But NQT is good. If anyone kills me, they'll just get Tiruin back (who is lovely, but might appreciate a break from all this madness).
Whoever made the griffin and the sargent, didn't it say they were randomely assigned a team other than scum? I think that means that there is a 50% chance that each of them is cult. Unless they could be assigned to some neutral group or something. It's all I've got.Yeah, they get assigned to a random, non-mafia alignment.

I'd say hold off on the multiple action thing for now.
I can buy into that plan... though someone needs to be willing to die (alongside me) in the last night of the game.
We'll also need to take down the cult leader or they'll just keep converting.
Also, the thing about actions is not a one-time offer. I can give TolyK as many actions as he's likely to need and then some.
So, it seems reasonable to assume that one (or two) of the two NPC's (The griffin or the seargent) may be part of the cult.It's reasonable in theory, but not reasonable to assume - players are much more useful to the cult leader. :p
From Deus:I already said it: I protected Shakerag. I even got a message saying it stopped a kill. I said it in my first post of D5.
We need an action claim for N3 from Teneb because he is one of the suspects for cult leader.
On N3 I tried to forcibly reclaim my role from OSG, but it failed due to him going on vacation.That's Ironic :P
Teneb, what did you do N2?DA should read the thread. I claimed it. But since I am feeling too lazy to go dig up the quote for it, I'll just repeat it: I jailed (roleblock + protect) Tiruin.

Let me guess, the next one is "Teneb, what did you do N1?", so let's get it out of the way. I tried to protect hector, but due to the rules that were in effect, it turned into a kill. Which is impressive since it bypassed one of my other roles that prevent me from doing a kill, ever (OSG can confirm this).
Shakerag, was creating the NPCs the only thing you did N3? Why could you make two of them?Yes, and because I can take 2 actions every night. ANY PROBLEMS WITH THAT, PUNK?
I thought you were a likely kill target, though I can't remember the exact reasoning.Teneb, what did you do N2?DA should read the thread. I claimed it. But since I am feeling too lazy to go dig up the quote for it, I'll just repeat it: I jailed (roleblock + protect) Tiruin.

:o you bitch! >:(
Even if it was meant as a protect.
Why were you protecting me anyways?
We could technically destroy it through Shakerag, right?
But he's already claimed to be able to turn roles into NPC's...If you can get the role from hector13 to me somehow, sure.
I could transfer a random role, but theoretically I could transfer all his roles to you. Hm...But he's already claimed to be able to turn roles into NPC's...If you can get the role from hector13 to me somehow, sure.
Still, town don't need to be alive to win and we need the cult dead, so we should probably still lynch today. GriffinWhy Griffin, specifically?
Day end, anyone?Still here! Sorry bout the delays, for the past couple days Ive had no time for myself, what with funeral preparations and all. One I get access to my work station and notes back, because right now the area is being used to scan and print photos, Ill do a proper day end. For now, xontinue your day posts while im on this brief hiatus.
Flabooooooort...
Only one person piped up to speak, nobody else even getting a chance, when somebody draws a gun and obliterates Teneb's skull with the butt.I overlooked this, so... nice daykill attempt on the guy that claimed immortality, whomever did it.
"Ow", he replies.
Yes, I still have the role. It is called:I suppose. Kinda hard to make it happen, though.
(Auto) You cannot win while...
Wasn't Shakerag the one that can turn roles into NPC's though?
For the record, counting last night I got: redirected to the damn tumbleweed (tried to protect OSG, so I wouldn't have to fish the role from his dead self), daykilled, and now dayblocked. Not that the last one matters, since I already used my day action.
Anyway, you know what? I know I am town, I know DA is town, and, unless he got converted this night, OSG is town too. That leaves TDS, NQT, TolyK, Shakerag and the NPC. NQT is confirmed scum and pointless to lynch. TDS cannot by lynched. I'd rather not bother with the NPC. That leaves TolyK and Shakerag with at least 50% (if not 100%) of being non-town. And anti-town factions cannot win due to the Role and because I can't lose. So... TolyK.
You're right. Who the hell had the role removal ability?I burn roles to power some of my abilities. So if you give me a role (somehow) I can eat it and turn it into more opportunities to kill a lot of you.
I guess if we managed to remove a person holding that damn role from the game for a cycle and win that very cycle it could work. Unlikely.I have a NK that removes a player from the game for two cycles, then they're brought back dead if the game hasn't ended. That would technically work.
Well, let's wait and see if TolyK can actually do something about this bullshit.
However, Shakerag has been busy protecting NPCs and TolyK has been setting up a plan to end the game, so Teneb.How am I protecting NPCs? At night, I've mostly been busy abusing my powers for the sake of amusement, and trying to turn myself into a gigantic bomb. I wouldn't recommend lynching/killing me, but if you do it's going to be hilarious.

And why have I been doing that you're going to ask? Because I tried to be all "responsible townie" for the first two nights and I kept getting redirected to that damn tumbleweed when I tried to watch/track anyone. Then I said screw it and embraced the crazy-ass nature of the game.
And no, I'm probably not going to vote for you unless Teneb flips town.I will totally flip town if TolyK doesn't return that role. Mind you, if he does return it, it pretty much confirms him as anti-town for me.
though nobody would have to vote anyone if I hadn't screwed up last night. :'(Explain.
Alright, I'm fine with keeping the role, if you want. I confirm that I got the flip obstruction role. Also, if the consensus ends up in lynching you, then you probably should commit suicide so we could lynch someone else as well, potentially. ;)And no, I'm probably not going to vote for you unless Teneb flips town.I will totally flip town if TolyK doesn't return that role.

I would suicide, but I can't. Can only use one day action per day.

Explanation: If I hadn't messed up time zones we would already be executing the everyone-wins plan.
What will happen if you die then Shakerag? Killing a whole bunch of people seems to me to be exactly what we need in this game. All the role complexity and interactions makes it impossible for anyone to coherently act or pursue their wincondition. Less players = less roles = less headache.Aw, you just want me to kill a bunch of townies, you big dumbface. Although I suppose that still wouldn't let you win due to that one problematic role swimming around.
OK Shakerag, you keep turning yourself into a bomb. We should lynch you in another day or two to maximise damage.No. But scroll up to the daykill and you'll see what'll happen. Hopefully, there will be a flip too this time.
Teneb, are you lynch immune?
Teneb Shorten
You shouldn't. Don't worry your pretty little head about it: I'll nightkill you later.Quote from: SARGENTTHIS IS BULLSHIT, SOLDIERS. Why are we letting a mafioso run around unchecked? Why are they collaborating with shakerag?
NotQuiteThere! Why should I shoot you where you stand?
We alredy tried that. It ressurected.You shouldn't. Don't worry your pretty little head about it: I'll nightkill you later.Quote from: SARGENTTHIS IS BULLSHIT, SOLDIERS. Why are we letting a mafioso run around unchecked? Why are they collaborating with shakerag?

Trying Teneb is probably a waste of time. I want to lynch TheTumblingTumbleweed as I'm sure he keeps redirecting folk.
We alredy tried that. It ressurected.Huh. OK OSG as you're the one redirecting to the Tumbleweed, right?
Oppose Shorten for now.Why?
I guess I"ll waste next day trying to fish the role out of OSG's corpse so I can then give it to Shakerag on the next day.
What was your idea?My idea was that technically, everyone alive could win if they were all converted to cult. Then I thought that this was your idea and you were cult. Still could be cult.
... You do realize that I guess the cult leader is probably you, right? :p DA is pretty sure you're the leader, and I think so too. But currently I don't care - I'll start caring if something bad happens.What was your idea?My idea was that technically, everyone alive could win if they were all converted to cult.

See, those kinds of sentences (punitive/stingy, specifically: "that's cute") are fairly indicative of having struck the right spot. :PSo, to get this straight: you are voting me because confirmed townie DA said so, despite neither him nor you providing any actual case on why I am the much dreaded cult leader. Ok. Great to know.
But the fact of the matter is that I'm not even voting for you, since AFAIK you're not against an everyone-wins plan and aren't planning/don't have the capability to prevent/delay it (by much).

Now, not 100% true, but AFAIR:See, those kinds of sentences (punitive/stingy, specifically: "that's cute") are fairly indicative of having struck the right spot. :PIn what way?
Can I get a full schedule of how this plan meant to work?Basically, most of everyone's roles gets transferred to someone, and then the alignment-changing role is passed around. Voila, everyone is town. And as a bonus, dead people who aren't town get resurrected and get to become town, too.

I'm not voting you. NOT.
His logic logic is: OSG was cultist, so Shakerag can't be cult leader, so it's you.
oppose shorten
Why are we lynching an NPC and not Teneb, our top cult suspect?

Why is Teneb the top cult suspect?
Already did.Yes. It would've happened last night, however I hadn't sent an action in by the deadline (as I said). -.-That excuse won't work twice kid. Send in a PM in advance if you need to.
'ccording to some of the vote counts flabsy posted, day should've ended around 30 hours ago heh.Miscalculations and stuff!
Shakerag just explode already.Can't. No roles to explode with.
Sweet, that's at least two of you without roles.I guess the "pissed off" couldn't be detected in my last post. Yeah, I got no role.
Teneb, are you currently roleless then?
Alright, now that that's been settled we're going to do a bit of juggling to get my alignment-changing role to each of you non-townies. TDS is probably blocked though, due to the annoying roles? I haven't checked up on that. Either way, any other concerns currently?
Did anyone recently receive some roles? I'm missing all of mine.That 50/50 killing role was mine. I turned it into an NPC.
Also, I have almost everyone else's roles. And killing me would be 1. useless, because I'm kill-immune several times over, and 2. a very bad idea, since I have the bomb roles from Shakerag.
I should also draw attention to a suspicious role I got. It has a mark (essentially a douse) and a 50/50 mass-kill of everyone who is marked. It appears that we have a hidden serial killer/arsonist.
Last, I ended up with the roles where I win if Ragshake doesn't. Was he ever removed from the game?
Do we know who killed FoU? It's been a while since then (he was killed N2) but I can check if we don't know who did it.I'm not sure on either count.
Also, who killed Tiruin?
I strongly recommend that we get out act together and actually lynch someone. I suggest Teneb-who-might-be-a-cultist as this is the rare moment in which we can strike at them.I am not a damn cultist and I am surprised no one else is even slightly worried TolyK might not be town.
We're on D7 and dealing with some wincon-blocking-resurrection bullshit. I think a lot of us are running out of fucks to give at this point.I strongly recommend that we get out act together and actually lynch someone.

eep.
TolyK
I can copy roles and give them to people if I want.Those were mine originally. Pretty sick, huh?
Finally, I can remove people from the game for two days.
NotQuiteThere has died. He was a Mafia. Tiruin has come back to life!I LIVE?! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7nzml-zZ9M)Spoiler: roleflip (click to show/hide)
Girlfriend, what are you talkin' about?
Also I keep trying to remember that 4maskwolf isn't dead but is totally dead.
Uhh, my shenanigans in writing in the mafiachat .-.Girlfriend, what are you talkin' about?
Also I keep trying to remember that 4maskwolf isn't dead but is totally dead.
Tiruin, if you don't have time to read stuff, could you refrain from doing silly stuff? :p
You won't kill me either way, but it'll be annoying.
Just to check: hector13 and OSG are the two cultists while NQT and Tiruin are mafia, correct?Yep!
It's the aftereffects of academic strain. I live in the past and be forgetful in the present.Ahh. Well, I can sympathize. Although I'm more forgetful in the past and present.
Also...um, how do you do this "slang" thing...Yo pops, huntin' some scum, yo.I think that's the first time I've been called "pops". I'm not quite sure how to feel about that.
Isn't tumbleweed kill-immune?I don't think so? I tried searching up my list of kills ~D4ish (http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=155426.msg6821935;topicseen#msg6821935) but I discovered that the Tumbleweed hasn't flipped yet.

And I have received no word about any editing of my roles so I can nuke someone right now. :D
AND announce it out loud!
Why didn't my nuke work on you before, TOlyK :I
I am role-impaired.
Its a clever way of saying I got no roles.I am role-impaired.Explain?
I am role-impaired.
So by breaking the rules FoU enabled his own possible victory. Maybe.If this is legitimately what happens, this will be the goddamn funniest thing ever.
Tiruin: TiruinI just had to use the [/me] tag... :V
...I want to nuke somebody already :v Can I hit the cult leader who isn't TolyK?So by breaking the rules FoU enabled his own possible victory. Maybe.If this is legitimately what happens, this will be the goddamn funniest thing ever.
Another explosion rocks the vessel, but on investigation nobody was hurt. The body of Ragshake is missing, though.Can I has infraction point+ by pointing out that you copied the vote list from Day 8? :P
Ragshake has been removed from the game until Day 11

Calling you out in public, Flabort ^ ^
TheDarkStar has been the target of the spectator kill! The kill failed!the spectators are dbags. :P
Well...Yes, this is true, technically.
Due to having those infractions, the "Attack of the Rags!" auto I had didn't function.
But of course, that would mean I would be town. And seeing as there's no mafia left, I would have won anyway.
~~~
That's just a minor technical thing I believe is correct- but it didn't stop me(and everybody else) from winning.
This is over. It's finally over. I never thought I'd see the day.
I think we can all agree all these anti-win roles are a terrible idea and this is why.
There are no Town remaining.Except for me! Except for me, I say!
Somebody should put together a large post full of funny quotes from the game(and the quick topics, there were a few gems there).I'm seriously considering sigging this one:
Also...um, how do you do this "slang" thing...Yo pops, huntin' some scum, yo.
I find it ironic that submitting a role that allowed the spectators to target a kill lead to multiple kill attempts on me.
Roles Submitted, and in the tabs at the bottom of the page, tabs showing how the set-up started (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1u2hYfNZxCzbGBPH0EprKxQbd7qntnRDCnSUykjr9uZM/edit?usp=sharing)You can check this link if you have questions.
Also, there seems to have been an incredible amount of confusion over what my roles did.Oh, you're a cute and cuddly teddy bear that I'd hug with just as much initiative as anyone else on this Mafia subforum :>
Oh, and Tiruin, hmm. I guess I just wanted to know how intimidating/brick wallish I'm acting. I know I have a tendency to be blunt and irritable, but if it's going too far I'd like to try reign it in before it becomes an issue.
This is over. It's finally over. I never thought I'd see the day.I'd say this is worse, overall. :V The role that requires a certain specific action to actually make the player vulnerable.

The FHPBYOR2 Role That Can't Ever Be Killed In Any Way For The Duration Of FHPBYOR2Or maybe kill-stab funtime! :I
(Auto) As it says: Lynches and Kills fail when targeting you. Yeah, you just get this ability straight up, how weird is that?
A 418-foot giraffeGrawrgghh. Those are OP roles! D:< I had a feeling that (in a conventional battle wherein the players are all minmax gamers with little heart towards others and more towards wincon) the Mafia would lose :P
(Night) Lookout [Target]: With your incredibly long neck, you can see anyone visiting your target. But... they are kind of blurry, being so far down, and you'd pass out if you got a closer look, so you only know how many visitors there are.
(Auto) 6 hearts: Being so bizarely tall, you had several extra hearts transplanted to keep blood pumping to your head. If you are attacked, instead of dying you pass out and cannot act in the following cycle, until your extra hearts can fix the damaged ones. If you are attacked again while passed out, you cannot act for a further cycle, and being attacked again before recovery will kill you. Being lynched counts the same as being killed for attacks!
(1-shot) Naturally Prey [target]: You can't really see predators coming, or even your own body very well. It makes you a very good target, and you can distract any attackers in the area of your visitor. Of course, once your body catches on to where your head is putting it, you won't be able to do this again, so make it count.
You can say it, but I don't think TDS was ever cult. At least not in my cult...I was being silly with the whole TDS being cult because he survived past N1. :P (I didn't really believe he was cult but I was being silly when I typed it...oops!)
OSG was the CL, so we were both having a wee chuckle in the cult qt regarding that[...]

Checking the third page, 4mask got the one you asked about.
So turning to 4masks page, it was a steal a role ability; OR give a brand spanking new role to the target.
To be fair, being unkillable is a pretty big problem, but there were role-stopping roles. With most of those gone, these were indeed a bit OP. :PQuoteA 418-foot giraffeGrawrgghh. Those are OP roles!

I just feel like a tiny brown mouse that my two biggest suspects were the most OP <_< >.> (Well...straight up with singular roles that is).
It occurred to me partway through the game that if I was scum I could have converted everyone (with a normal conversion, not the one OSG had) in the same night. That was basically how I convinced TolyK to trust me - if I as actually scum, there was nothing he could do about it.Well, I could just change who my 50% went to, and you'd have no more infinite actions, but since you were initally town and scum can't convert (as an educated guess; if cult - all hail our new overlord?) I felt reasonably secure about that.
I should also explain the giant post filled with numbers in the Orden quickchat. I had a role that would give the target an additional night action the next night that could be self-targeted and one that would double the target's actions the current night that could not be self targeted. I gave myself extra actions for the first few nights and ended up with 8, but then TolyK mentioned that anything targeting him had a 50% chance of targeting me instead. So I give myself one extra action and attempted to double TolyK's actions 7 times. Each time, there was a 50% chance that all my actions would double and then I would be able to double things again. The list of numbers was flabort running a random number generator to see if there was a string in the first thousand (ten thousand) that would terminate or if I would end up with a functionally infinite amount of actions.
I think the infraction system was a little bit completely broken as well. It might have worked better if you didn't tell people how many infractions each thing was worth, or just awarded them at the mod's discretion depending on how much they were gaming the system (like posting while dead, or sending PMs whenever that revealed otherwise unknowable information would be worth at leave replacement level infractions) but then I guess that wouldn't be any different to the standard system.Heck, the only reason I won is because I abused the infractions system...

Breaking the rules in order to win? Yup.Oh pff. It's certain people. Not the whole forum :V
Normal day at the Bay12 mafia forum.
