[TheWayItEnds]

i didnt join one.

[TheWayItEnds]

It moved.

To ME!. But I'm fine. :p

TWIE: can you please get massively townread somehow, so you win the beachpalooza, and then you can use the lightning rod while allied with SC, so that way we learn *every* sort of PR town has and how many, OR we learn every single slot who has a targeted PR? Thanks!

i dont really get massively townread.

and i dont usually participate in the early stages of day 1 either.

[TheWayItEnds]

ill see what i can do on day 2 i guess.

[TheWayItEnds]

or if day 1 goes late enough that i would normally start to participate more heavily

[TheWayItEnds]

but like even if i wanted to atm the only thing town me would be bringing up is that cakes post i hated.

[TheWayItEnds]

dude cakez if i was town i would never stop trying to lynch you for 2544.

[TheWayItEnds]

like i want to do it anyway because of how bad that post was.

[TheWayItEnds]

thats in the mechanics post.

[TheWayItEnds]

let RR address it.

[TheWayItEnds]

we cant beach can we?

blocking titus seems loose.

killing mastin is also loose.

redacted flip is real interesting

[TheWayItEnds]

if thats a town negative utility that should have been claimed yeah?

[TheWayItEnds]

traitor ability seems possible.

[TheWayItEnds]

-1 doesnt give us any enhanced kills does it?

unless i missed something?

[TheWayItEnds]

actually.

redacted flips could be in town hands so they theres no minus stress on mislynches and night kills now that i think about it.

[TheWayItEnds]

whats the point of redacting the flip if the stress meter tells you what the alignment of the player killed is?

[TheWayItEnds]

how would people know to be less stressed without knowing they lynched a mafioso

[TheWayItEnds]

Honestly as town I would probably just ignore the whole alliance mechanic unless I got a major buff from it. The fact that my role give better information if I stay unallied is just a boon.

[TheWayItEnds]

ugh titus's list of me with skybird is annoying.

[TheWayItEnds]

i could just accept that specific request first and that solves the problem as well.

[TheWayItEnds]

if skybird doesnt post its really easy to accept because shes vla

[TheWayItEnds]

either way though, we still end up with a scum/scum alliance. and i have to use the weaker version of my ability

[TheWayItEnds]

I think Skybird should try and take up the offer from xyk for sure if she can.

[TheWayItEnds]

I haven't read anything, I'll try and make time sometime tomorrow

[TheWayItEnds]

I should be able to.

I'm fine with those actions and I havent read anything for like 20 pages so let me know if I missed something big.

I'm pretending to ally with someone right?

[TheWayItEnds]

killing yume is like a waste of a night action tbh.

[TheWayItEnds]

Uh.

I have an alliance with DGB somehow.

[TheWayItEnds]

Nobody on N1.

DGB says that she has mod info that I'm scum and I have to tell her my teammates.

So nothing really.

[TheWayItEnds]

I've been quite happy to not submit anything myself.

But I can start if thats what you prefer.

[TheWayItEnds]

yeah i just asked asked if she was planning on saying that until someone fell for it

and she said i was mod confirmed scum

and i said oh right i forgot that part

then she said please tell me who my team is

and i said oh right because you're an alliance forcing traitor aesthetic mason cop.

[TheWayItEnds]

and she hasnt responded.

[TheWayItEnds]

its much easier for me to claim not to have voted because i didnt care who got it between titus/mastin i think

[TheWayItEnds]

yep

[TheWayItEnds]

dgb says she controls my vote today

and that she has a cop ability to find her partners

[TheWayItEnds]

i told her to claim that and she ignored it.

[TheWayItEnds]

Why would we do that?

[TheWayItEnds]

yeah but on the other hand moi is genuinely shit at mafia.

[TheWayItEnds]

i mean you can kill him if you want but ive played with him once and he was the worst player in said game.

[TheWayItEnds]

dgb is

possibly

our traitor.

she claims she has a cop ability and thats how she knows im scum but i know that no one targeted me n1 so i dont know when she could have done that.

[TheWayItEnds]

then why would she have claimed traitor to klingon?

[TheWayItEnds]

jesus christ is yume the most annoying person on site.

[TheWayItEnds]

And she gamethrows

literally half the game is treating her with kid gloves and shes still freaking out.

like fuck.

shes like the best person we could have hoped for to be unkillable conftown but like its not even worth.

[TheWayItEnds]

yeah.

she said i didnt answer her questions.

i said thats because she didnt fullclaim.

then back to nothing.

[TheWayItEnds]

not like that. but i can bring it up more sarcastically

[TheWayItEnds]

Doesn't really matter to me TBH. I dont really care about my event so we can hold it or use it whenever. What are you aiming to find out with it?

[TheWayItEnds]

dgb did ask me who she should target next

[TheWayItEnds]

whoever she targets for alliance gets put into one with her.

cause i didnt target her.

[TheWayItEnds]

id just think the scum team had done us a favor as town tbh.

[TheWayItEnds]

varsoon in the original event you called the kill event message received instead of remote detonator.

[TheWayItEnds]

so titus said shes town reading me based on we the purple.

i look noting like we the purple, i just went and glanced at that game.

oh well.

[TheWayItEnds]

if we're using my even we should have something specific to get out of it.

otherwise we probably shouldnt.

[TheWayItEnds]

i mean are we looking for a doc or something?

its also possible that people will just truthfully claim on their own and we get some free info.

[TheWayItEnds]

I can still claim my self watch, but i'll be left eventless which i agree could be a problem.

[TheWayItEnds]

Yeah thats fine.

Actions

TWIE kills Not Chara
TWIE uses Historical Fiction on Episode 1.

can I also use my self watch?

if so use that as well.

if not those actions are fine.

[TheWayItEnds]

i picked shiro snarky and skybird.

skybird submitted that she tried to kill RR. like at some point that just fucks us when the doc claims.

shiro claimed to have an ability that she could forgo and looked like she was hard town reading grapes and seemed very at ease attempting to 1v1 farside.

snarky made that post where he voted cakez 5 times after he claimed that i thought could have been him being a doc.

other considerations were creature who i eventually ruled out as doc, menno who i actually think could be doc still, and titus because of the post where she claims that if fire wasnt the scum kill her flip gives a lot of information.

then it was like 5 am and i just picked.

[TheWayItEnds]

i didnt want to do titus though because it makes it impossible for me to claim that this was a town event.

[TheWayItEnds]

also in my pt with snarky he wants to exchange claims for some reason

[TheWayItEnds]

i got a message that all of my climax actions will fail for as long as i am allied with snarky.

i could claim having a season finale vig shot that i cant use.

[TheWayItEnds]

i could claim that in conjunction with the event that just concluded.

that seems like a reasonable amount of power

[TheWayItEnds]

actually i kind of like that story with my event giving me info for my vig shot.

[TheWayItEnds]

only real flipped scum.

see if we could find the missing kill.

i can claim to have checked dgb too because snarkys calim didnt change

[TheWayItEnds]

but picking dgb doesnt make sense if im trying to find someone to vig.

[TheWayItEnds]

theres no reason for skybird to submit her actual kill target though.

thats potentially verifiable when we get a doc claim

[TheWayItEnds]

nah.

skybird is the only group scum we know who did shit night 1.

picked her for information

i think thats easier to swing

[TheWayItEnds]

oh yeah.

easiest way out ever.

[TheWayItEnds]

im going to not have a partner for return to earth, but i think thats fine.

[TheWayItEnds]

that hammer from farside is interesting.

i didnt even get a chance to claim that varsoon said i should be able to shoot.

[TheWayItEnds]

did anyone even suggest a vig target for me?

[TheWayItEnds]

it was supposed to be random but he didnt join. it was just me and snarky.

[TheWayItEnds]

and we really just went into night with unstoppable kills

[TheWayItEnds]

gems effectively have to flip someone to prevent that right?

also, it occurs to me that i have no flavor justification for having a vig shot and i dont know shit about this show.

[TheWayItEnds]

yeah i think im pretty fucked when no one dies to a vig kill.

might as well go for full value on the titus kill.

[TheWayItEnds]

i should absolutely submit the kill.

[TheWayItEnds]

my lifespan in this game is finite.

[TheWayItEnds]

sounds like a plan to me.

[TheWayItEnds]

im glad mastin guiltied me before i showed up to the thread though.

yesterDay i was going to have to start being lategame TWIE

[TheWayItEnds]

i think missing vig kill might be too much coincidence.

i need to decide who im fake shooting too.

[TheWayItEnds]

-4 does specify scum factional kill though.

and because there was no direction it could be argued that i was rbed because they didnt know who i was going to shoot.

[TheWayItEnds]

So creature is definitely Ronaldo fryman, the keep beach city weird guy. Role cop that gathers false information fits him perfectly.

Farside's hammer waa a scum claim, quite literally.

Snarky was at 4 votes when farside used er quintuple vote.

Casting a new vote removes previous votes, so snarky was at 3 votes.

Farside quintuple vote would ONLY lynch town, never scum, thereby implying thst she KNEW snarky would flip town, and just didn't want to use her points.

Town expectation should be that she's going to use the rest of her points to hammer someone else tomorrow, after the cluster etc, and get her team a shot to win the game through her sacrificing herself to force two mislynches.

This is kinda why im unsure about shooting farside.

i actually dont know if it will help or hinder getting her lynched.

[TheWayItEnds]

town TWIE would probably just shoot a lurker.

townTWIE probably payed more attention to this game though and has actual scumspects though

[TheWayItEnds]

everyone knows moi is a gem.

he just said gems are all town

then lynch moi.

okay.jpg

[TheWayItEnds]

i could say i tried to shoot farside.

i can also claim i thought all kills succeeded at -4 if anyone asks why id shoot someone whos aesthetic

that might be risky though.

[TheWayItEnds]

does farside know how many times she was targeted?

she should right?

i claim to have shot farside, someone else claims to have targetted her and then i dont know what happened to my bullet.

[TheWayItEnds]

i can claim that i thought kills couldnt be stopped at -4 and just be really surprised that farside is still alive.

[TheWayItEnds]

i can try to claim i tried to shoot menno, but thats not a super likely kill for town me to make.

i think id always have shot random as town.

[TheWayItEnds]

i thought kraskas power increased stree

[TheWayItEnds]

i think im going to claim i shot farside.

i kinda want to wait for mastin to post first before i show up though.

[TheWayItEnds]

i havent posted onsite since game open

[TheWayItEnds]

nah its as lazy as i can make it

[TheWayItEnds]

people need to buy that i didnt read that only scum kills are guaranteed at -4

[TheWayItEnds]

i mean obviously i think there is or i wouldnt have made it.

[TheWayItEnds]

welp

as in shit.

i just found out im retarded.

and everyone else already knows that.

and theres nothing else i can really say about it.

because how do you fuck up that badly on your only night action.

[TheWayItEnds]

i think scum would be much more likely to try and explain themselves.

whereas town is just embarrassed.

so im not explaining myself as of yet.

[TheWayItEnds]

i might need a day or two to get remotivated after that horrific blunder i made, but yeah when i start working back through shit ill being that up.

[TheWayItEnds]

i think if farside decides to lynch me im dead anyway. but yeah i'll see if i cant avoid that.

[TheWayItEnds]

i could try pointing out that farside knows she was targeted and just make whoever else targeted her claim.

then i can just go back to being confused.

and then i can bring up the shiro thing.

[TheWayItEnds]

if they ask for flavor for my vig shot im literally fucked.

[TheWayItEnds]

hopefully farside doesnt live through another hammer.

[TheWayItEnds]

hmm. i was thinking that mastin wasnt buying it.

maybe she actually was but shes being too practical about her lynch lineup.

[TheWayItEnds]

i dont even think fuzzys claim prevents my fakeclaim from being in the game. between the 2 of us we can shoot twice every 4 days.

but whatever.

[TheWayItEnds]

its kinda hard to predict how people will react to me throwing shade at mastin and magnas reads/play once i flip scum but neither of them have scum as top suspects.

me shit talking mastins vca, flipping scum, and then mastin dying might push people to follow her reads. but also she'd push them better if she was alive.

[TheWayItEnds]

i think its way too late to add something to my claim.

[TheWayItEnds]

especially since i claimed i did the event.

if i had another ability i probably would have claimed it there.

[TheWayItEnds]

i dont need to be allied.

and i have the event.

[TheWayItEnds]

meh.

i dont think the claim was the problem.

getting guiltied sucked but whatever.

[TheWayItEnds]

id probably kill grapes or moi

[TheWayItEnds]

will we?

arent we currently at -2?

[TheWayItEnds]

also, the value of killing mastin is removing *effort* from the game which is certainly something.

i just think she'll push something incorrect for at least tomorrow. so it might be better to kill a gem

[TheWayItEnds]

actually now that i think about it, it might be possible to get farside lynched once it becomes clear that i had no way of targeting her last night and no one counterclaimed targeting her
