  • Allyrianne has a lot to deal with in real life these days, and has requested someone replace her. If there are any volunteers for the role, please notify me before this dayphase ends.

    Welp. Since I got prodded, now I have to throw out my voice. 

    Vote: Siam

    Why? Because only I get to be fierce make-out bros with Tarkenton. Get your own bear.

    Didn't we already put pressure on Siam and then subsequently remove it? Or am I thinking of one of the other Symphony of S's?

    (I've had a lot of stuff cropping up the last two days that pulled me away from the computer, plz2notLynchMe)

    @kiradawea Votecount?
  • Could anyone explain why? I mean, so far the only reason I've seen is A) I'm aggressive (which, to be frank, I don't see as scummy), B) I was protected by a scary chimaera (which, again, I don't see as scummy), and C) I argued with Shaddus (which I definitely don't see as scummy).

  • Okay, so I think I've got six votes, and considering I'll be at work for the next eleven'ish hours, I kinda don't want to get ninja-lynched. Thus, I'm just going to do this:

    I'm a jailor. Essentially, I scare people into keeping still, and I scare anyone who approaches them to back off. If I target myself, I only scare people from approaching me (I'm not scary enough to scare myself). This is what Celina experienced. These last two nights I've been targetting myself, which, I'm guessing, is why we had no kill the first night (since both blocker and protector was busy), and might be the reason we didn't have a kill last night too (in case they thought they found someone really interesting).

    I don't think they'll try again though, since they now know it's completely impossible to kill me. Odds are they wouldn't have tried again a third night, so hopefully we've lost nothing from my reveal, but I hope the blocker is lucky this coming night.

    Whoa ok that explains a lot of questions I had. Why was no one killed at night, for example. (Since I know I'm not scum, I couldn't think "maybe Xeria wasn't doing her scum vote?" so I was seriously stewing on that.) I was also like "is there a scum protector or...?" but this makes so much more sense. Mindblowing.

    I'm gonna Unvote because even if there's a chance that is a lie, this is a really really convincing one. And actually what's kind of beautiful about this is that Ssaliss is a risk for scum to kill at night, knowing that he's already "jailed" himself twice now. Which I'm sure they already kind of assumed, after two strikes now.

    Hmm, so who to focus on then? I'll hop I guess on the Vote Azureus train because I'm pro-lynch and this is gaining traction. @Azureus speak now or forever lynch in peace.

  • I really hate these vote counts:

    Ssaliss: Synkarin, Luce, Tarkenton (3)
    Celina: Saran, (1)
    Shaddus: Ssaliss, Celina (2)
    Synkarin: Ayisdra (1)
    Siam: Tremula (1)
    Azureus: Siam, Shaddus, Sylandra (3)

    14 around makes 8 for a lynch.

    Wait, wait. Ssaliss is claiming that he's protected himself two nights in a row, and the scum just so happen to have targetted him both nights?

    I believe it though. When I played another game and scum had a role blocker, they blocked me two nights in a row, even though the first night I took no obvious action. Weird stuff like this happens!

    And with Riluna dead this game they must have assumed no one would be able to protect Ssaliss the next night. After all, town was just as confused by Ssaliss's flavor text; we had protector theories floating.

    It's a really clean theory imo.

    I think I agree with the logic that scum targeted him night 1, and he was protected, then our doctor died and they assumed they could just pick him off that night, too.

    Unvote, Vote: Azureus

    Partly because he's been quiet, mostly because we're thin on options. 

    And since we have a logical explaination for lack of kills, has anyone else seen a jewelled mongoose statuette thing?

    I didn't say they targetted me both nights. I say it explains the fact that there was no kill during night one since both the doctor and blocker were busy, and unless the blocker got lucky the second night, it gives a reason they didn't get a kill the second (in case they targetted me hoping the protection wouldn't apply both nights). Honestly, I have no idea if they targetted me or not; for all I know, they could be sitting on their thumbs revelling in the confusion. I don't see who I scare away, or even how many, so most things is pure speculation.

    I have not seen a mongoose statuette thing, no. (First kitsunes, now a mongoose?! This game, I tell you.)

    Well, I mean. We've had Ermine since day 1, I was assuming the jewelled mongoose was his doing last nightphase. I'm slightly apprehensive that he may function not unlike an arsonist, where he targets several people at once by first priming them, then pulling the 'trigger'. (Arsonist douses several opposing players in gasoline, then lights a match to ignite/murder them all).
  • SiamSiam Whispered Voice
    I'm slightly hesitant about Ermine being an arsonist given the context of this mafia game. Ermine is imprisoned and needs a way out(through the help of pro-Ermine folks), after all!

  • No. No one yet, so it's likely that Ally's character will also be removed by nightfall.

    WHAT IF ALY IS ERMINE.

  • Then she'll still be removed. :P

    Town or scum. If you don't play, you're out of the game, which sucks for the rest but it'd suck more to have to use your lynch to get rid of inactives that bloat the vote-count and lead to nothing.

  • Just a small pointer: I didn't have much left to hide with my role at this point, since odds were they wouldn't target me anyway. There are, however, people who should definitely keep being hidden (protector and spy-vision-sender-person for instance), and the more people we reveal (even if they don't turn out to be those people), the fewer the scum will need to choose between to get one of our more important people.
