Sorry we lynched before you got back.

Even while I’m convinced you’re scum, I had meant to unvote to let you speak (traveling this weekend, so intermittently very busy).

What’s your full claim?

if you haven’t already DMed the host with your night action , you should do so now. Wyited or Earth is my suggestion, for a non-manipulated vig shot.

This is assuming that you’re  actually town, and that the power will still activate.

According to lunatics active player counter, most likely the officially passive players choose to not do the NK (therefore partnered with JoeBob, Barney, or Wylted… faking a successful defense), or both scum are among the active players and if scum targeted Wyited or Barney, the defense was successful… come to think of it,  a mix of the two is also likely: one in and one out, with the one who is in doing their thing and attempting a night kill, and the one who is out having a passive power.



Now off to go dance.

This is ending in a no lynch unless we all work together to pile the votes on one target right now.

Since Joebob is on and can lend needed support, I suggest we murder Moozer.

Please defend yourself.

Also if alive tonight, giving the cube to Wyited is optional… Actually, not sure if it’s still passed if dead, but locking him in now is a safe bet.



Oh everyone else,  due to JoeBob and I having such similar roles, please don’t lynch anyone without confirming we’ve DMed the host (we lock in targets during the day before the hammer)

Lynching JoeBob…

  • He’s terrible at defending himself, so if town will be an easy mislynch later. Seriously, I shouldn’t have to be the one explaining the flavor connections between his powers and character.
  • He is character confirmed due to the flavor text in the mod PM.
  • His role follows the same pattern as mine. This could be scum having DP1 role cop abilities, or the host simply reusing some of his work for briefly popular items (Rubiks cubes and RSVLTS… Beanie Babies too had anyone submitted that).
  • He could be a fake inventor as Pie keeps saying. I’d need to read up on Mr. Rubiks; but it’s plausible even if I’ve never seen that role.
  • Likewise, I could be a fake inventor. Are shirts really an invention? Do they really kill people? 
  • The two of us could be a lazy scum team, agreeing on a gambit of claiming variants of the same role.
  • I need to head to work, but lots of other possibilities

@JoeBob
nothing even remotely related between a Rubix cube and doctor 
It’s a commuter, via scrambling the locations of the pieces. Hence much of the issue with Mooney right now.

These roles share an uncomfortable number of aspects. No denying that.

As for the other problem, yes, we have a lot of protective roles in this game. Likely one of the mafia can strongman; that or something even better to make things balanced.

@Moozer325
I’m not as confident of your guilt as Wylted, but it is a pretty big coincidence that out of nowhere you said commuter instead of vigilante, and commuter happens to be a power that ends up in play.

Plus the confusion on what day you’ll be town confirmed. It seems like it’s not a simple wait to tomorrow, but the day after… That’s a lot of faith you’re asking for.

If you’ve got a better theory on who is scum, please lay it out for us. In the mean time…

I could have chosen to use a different power from the cube, but I used commuter. The power name is actually “Scramble!” In which you scramble the locations on the cube and likewise your own.

The other would have been pretty useful, but there was a high likelihood I’d be NKed, so best to use the protection.

Looking back through JoeBob, this post stands out as his only mention of commuter yesterday… which was to kill a possible rival to his power; which if you can do without directly counter claiming, it’s best to do so.

Reads:
  • Wylted - Town/role-confired. Obviously I think he's town, and was the most likely NK target after myself, hence why I passed him my protective item (I did so after verifying the vigilante shot would survive for another night). While scum occasionally deny themselves the NK, it seems weird that they'd deny themselves two. As for the shirt disabling his actions, as scum he'd know there were no lethal actions headed his way. I don't know if he was actually turned vanilla, or was just using that as a reference to being 'roleblocked' by accepting the "red shirt." If actually targetted by a role stripping power, I first dislike that anyone was so fast to say it's scummy, but it is odd since the only way his vig would be a problem is if they thought he was going to target one of them...
  • Barney - Scum, pure scum! As scummy as the Spanish Inquisition! https://youtu.be/vt0Y39eMvpI?si=_ntqdqQpEvYibd0Q
  • IlikePie - lean-scum/role-confirmed. It's mainly a gut feeling. The speed at which he jumped to being role-blocked (or vanilla swirled) equals scum, gave me a bit of whiplash.  And of course I'd bet money that he has more powers (anyone with one power is most likely lying in this game).
  • Joebob  - Town/role-confirmed. Had been someone I'm ok with lynching, but with no NK and me being on of two people protected (and I've played plenty of games with more than one protective role) makes me favor him...  Now to get back to playing with this box... https://screenrant.com/hellraiser-2022-puzzle-box-lament-configurations/
  • Casey - null/null. A big cup of null; so someone I'd be ok lynching (not that I want to, merely part of the lynch pile)
  • Moozer - scum/unconfirmed. It's a believable claim, but I don't believe it due to how it's been used. Investigative roles are the most important, and giving that up for confirmation later in the game... An investigation can reveal someone as scum, which was worth so much more than 100% town confirmation.
  • Lunatic - lean-town/unconfirmed. Not too much to go on, but I do like the bear and how the mod has handled it, plus the counting thing is not something I would expect from scum as it could lead to them getting lynched when more is revealed.. 
  • Earth lean town/role-confirmed. Earth is always a blank slate to me, but the power is confirmed. I am trying to imagine it as a scum power, and not sure if it would be.

I see a drama storm starting…

To limit the information available to scum, I fibbed (aka lied).

My role has two powers, to both kill and protect via items.

The fashionable shirt (red shirt as Wyited called it) is activated during any dayphase. Then during the nightphase the target may put it on or not, with donning it costing them any other active actions for the night as  they’re too distracted by how good they look… but who could kill someone who looks that good? So it protects them against all lethal actions. It does not destroy items (so the vig shot is still available, just not on a night they’re protected).

The Rubik’s cube gives two options. The one I selected turned me into a commuter for the night.

JoeBob stating that it’s also a day phase ability, makes me trust him more. Plus I can’t think of any game where Mafia actually had a protective role.



With the currently available information, Wyited or myself must have been the NK target.

Our host would have to be a true bastard mod to make a lynchproof scum.

Why did you assume Lunatic would be a lynch target today? And why not yourself since we pretty well all agree that would all but town confirm you?

First things first, Austin is bastard for making a townie vote thief. The role is insanely scummy. Public apology to Savant. 
How so? While it can be scum, it is most often town (I thought this was covered to death already)


Plus even if it were to be most often a mafia role, that would not assure a bastard mod until the end game when balance can be properly reviewed.

I honestly thinking barney was scum he would've waited on this until he could better control who got the vig shot
I would have waited for later in the game, claiming it’s to be really sure who is town… or even that the power only activates DP3.

DP1 town outnumbers scum by the highest margin, so while there’s a good argument for DP2, DP1 seems like a good choice. Also drumming up activity and reads (I will post reads, just busy today).

Both of you please vote on it.

Basically because you're both accused of being scum, remove yourselves from the potential recipients, while still trying to help town get a weapon.

If one of you is correct, then only one scum is out there trying to get it; that makes it unlikely for them to win, but it can be discussed.

...

Everyone else, let's please carefully get the votes within range of hammering, and if anyone jumps for it side stepping discussion, we lynch that person.

Nope. However, the winning number was random, but less than the total number of living players excluding me.

I actually made a minor mistake. I wrongly thought random meant it would be unknown until someone reached it. Still, maximum people alive gives scum a lower chance of getting it. Probably would have waited for day 2, when we have a better idea who to trust.
