So I tried to inspect webadict but I couldn't target him.

But webadict claimed mafia miller mason!

I would have learned his win condition as well.

I also received an ability (from I expect ToonyMan) of uncertain utility since it affects one of the lucky numbers but not the one I know about.

Jimnosis.

Hmm. Jim is telling the truth, or lucky. Let's go with telling the truth.

Also I went to bed before a real knightwing bandwagon formed, but I can agree that spider wincon would have been bad news. He must have been busy because I don't see any reason why he wouldn't want to at least activelurk more, having two wincons, one of which requires ultrakilling scum and the other requires surviving to the end.

Spoiler: fluff (click to show/hide)


Jim Groovester
.

I inspected him, and he was cult.

I have my suspicions about what really happened with his "inspect" on Webadict tonight, as well.

Ah. I was going to say I trusted Jim now, because he claimed to use an inspect on webadict and was unable to target him. Since I prevented people from acting on webadict, I believed that Jim acted on him. Perhaps I actually parried a conversion attempt?

...Yeah, that would be the smart thing for scum to claim if their convert/kill gets blocked, wouldn't it?

Who is offering for me to give them one of my abilities, and why should I accept?
You should accept because we're very good friends.
Did you pick me for this? Did you think I'd be likely to want to give away my stuff for some reason?

It would. He's putting the pressure on Web immediately, which is the smart thing for scum!Jim to do given the KW elim and the number of people willing to kill Jim yesterday.

The only thing is, I think Jim genuinely wanted web out yesterday, and cult!Jim always, always goes after the other cult leader D1. So the weird thing would be Jim trying to recruit someone he probably thought he couldn't.

Describing the recruit as an inspect would make sense in that context though... because most multiball (multiple scum factions) games, it kind of is that. Because cult can't recruit other cult, as a measure to reduce swing.

I think it's plausible that Jim would use a recruit on someone he thought was cult. He's very confident in his ability to control town solo.

That seems reasonable. I did learn the name of one of the actions wuba used, which seems to confirm he's behind the hot dogs. It seems he tried to give a "deluxe hot dog" to somebody.

Which, I mean, that could be the name of a cult conversion ability.

I also learned some stuff about nqt which I'll take as not a real indication of anything.

I wonder if anyone can guess what silliness my role is from this.

Pfp

NJW, good job in the inspect. And yes, now D1 is done I'll be more circumspect with my voting. Why Jim?

Egan, why did you protect Web? I mean, what about Web on D1 convinced you that 1. He's town, and 2. Other players might mess with him?

As I said yesterday, I think we have at least one cult leader in the pool of players who claimed to uncovertible: Web, Max and EJ. I agree with NJW that cult aren't going to be convertible.

If Jim is a cult leader and was blocked from flipping Web, then we still have a more dangerous scum team unaccounted for who probably have two members today. After the last game where I failed to properly balance out the two scum teams as town, I'm wary about us ignoring one for the other. So either way, let's try to have a high scrutiny day.

Ppe: Egan, Knightwing would have murdered us all if he'd lived. I'm not shedding tears for a serial killer.

I can confirm this.  I used it on notquotethere.  And I also blocked NQT.  (It's sort of a package deal.)

Uh, downside to this:  He is now potentially unblockable Tonight.  So, I sorta regret doing that.  But I am able to track him, so we can see who he targets.  However, he may be redirectable, and if anyone potentially wants to redirect him into me, I am still nonconvertible.

Oh, now yall wanna do it. Just had to kill poor townie KnightWing first, is that it?
That's fair.
