JOAT uPick | FIN!

[Sakura Hana]

I use my remaining day activated ability to can move between targets every 24 hours until end of day freely to confirm the redirection

I understand confirming, but i dont understand what this does.
P-Edit: oh nvm my question then.

[Sakura Hana]

@Mod requesting a fresh vote count

My ability acts as a single anti-vote, and the difference in votes to eliminate WILL be reflected in the vote count, per my role wording.

So as i understand it this will make HST loved but if reflected it will make you loved instead? have you confirmed this can be redirected?

[Sakura Hana]

Well i guess Ircher got reflected at least since my vote went away.

[Sakura Hana]

I'm confused about LTO's action tho, it's supposed to be an anti vote but i see something in Not Voting instead of her?

[Sakura Hana]

Who the crap is Jimmy Hoffa?

I'm gonna assume is related to LTO's ability.

[Sakura Hana]

I'll vote LTO just in case to see if LTO needs to have any votes to verify
VOTE: LTO

[Sakura Hana]

Although Ircher's seem to have gotten reflected anyways so i'm not sure if it's necessary.

[Sakura Hana]

@Mod: New vote count pls

[Sakura Hana]

Do you still need my vote on you?... Well doesn't matter it's not like you're gonna get eliminated anyway.

[Sakura Hana]

UNVOTE:

[Sakura Hana]

Hmm...

[Sakura Hana]

Btw, whatever the scenario please hold off on eliminating whoever we're going to eliminate (Hu Tao by the looks of it) i'm talking with HST in the neighbor who already knows my abilities about using one of them.

[Sakura Hana]

Uh wait

[Sakura Hana]

Let me know when the lovebirds are done. I think the game is relatively "over" from here, though.

Probably, just waiting from a reply from HST in the hood before i proceed.

[Sakura Hana]

I have a doc that protects me during night and the following day and I can also self-target w/ it.
I'll just use it.

Oh ok, i was gonna use something that could potentially prevent you from dying tonight, but knowing this i probs dont need to use it tonight.

[Sakura Hana]

Only problem with my ability is it has a lot of downsides, specially early game.

Can I act?

No... you know what screw it, i'll just mention it. It's a... Lightning Rod, a regular one. So i'd redirect all night actions INCLUDING FACTIONAL ONES towards myself. Best case scenario, i draw the NK and a heal and no one dies, worst case scenario i die instead.

[Sakura Hana]

I wanted to mention this ahead of time coz if im using it i dont wanna screw up any night actions you guys have planned.
This is also why i was sus of MariaR's lightning rod at first, but i guess it's the balance of MariaR making someone a lightning rod, and i being able to only do it on myself.

[Sakura Hana]

Originally had planned to use it if people got suspicious of me so i'd just self-resolve during the night by dying or blocking the NK by drawing both a NK and a heal towards me, but im very townread right now and i cant find a good moment to use it.

[Sakura Hana]

I mean, it's either we risk scum having a strongman and shooting joyboy or risk scum having a strongwilled and shooting joyboy.

[Sakura Hana]

Considering MariaR's LR-izer was restricted to not attract factional abilities im guessing strong willed is less likely.

[Sakura Hana]

I’m fine w/ Sakura using LR

This does force mafia to show their hand if they have a strong-willed modifier, so in theory I am onboard, but I do want Titus to confirm she is on track for her things.

Ok so im activating LR tonight
VOTE: Hu Tao

[Sakura Hana]

If anyone has any objections mention it before hammer (unless i hammered then before lock)

[Sakura Hana]

Eh actually nvm, that's confusing, i'll just use it.

[Sakura Hana]

Seeing an old face like HST was what motivated me mainly to inning here, i usually dont take 2 games at the same time and figured i was gonna die soon on the other... ha... yeah right, well both are over now anyway.

[Sakura Hana]

Under normal circumstances i wouldn't have claimed when i did, but i didnt want to screw up MORE roles with a lightning rod for a 2nd night in a row, so yeah (in hindsight maybe i should've asked for a day roleblocker, who ever asks for those)

Hi Sakura! I missed you too.

I was surprised to see you playing im bad at guessing alts so i didnt figure out you were LTO while i was alive lol

[Sakura Hana]

As i said in the dead PT, i feel like Lap and Drew both kinda saved the game at the end there when everyone was giving MariaR a pass for her "self-resolving" claim.
Drew for spotting MariaR targeting Joyboy and Lap for saving Cabd from dying.

[Sakura Hana]

Also i think MariaR saying she targeted Joyboy on N2 was iffy, like, why would she target the most likely NK after we were discussing it at day end.
If she was a legit 3P she clearly wasnt trying to win with that move.

[Sakura Hana]

I was wrong Pooky, I sorry.

love you too buddy

i still cant believe i misread you XD

For the record HST told me that it'd make more sense for scum you to just townread a town Bell than push that miselim, which is what made me realize i was getting tunneled onto you and changed my read on you.

[Sakura Hana]

Also props to HST and Cabd being the only ones that figured out what MariaR's Lightning Rod did and (According to the mod at least) not even MariaR figured out herself.
(I more or less figured out her Lightning rod was sus the moment Light ganski flipped, but we got spoiled afterwards anyway)

[Sakura Hana]

On another note, i think this was a neat idea for a game, and would definitely play it again.
I asked for the instigation role coz i thought it'd be a cool idea, and i didnt even realize it until Night 1, but more powerful than a regular redirector if i target 2 scum lol.
And Lightning Rod was mostly for fun lol.

I still don't understand how Hu visited Joy though

Probably Day 1 using her ability checker, couldnt have been day 2 coz otherwise she couldnt have used the vengeful.

[Sakura Hana]

When i saw the vengeful i was like "Welp we've been had" then thought "Wait if she used her day ability cop then she cant fire", but then i died so that was wrong

[Sakura Hana]

Funny thought i had after i died?
If bell had been blown up by the vest, after we elimmed Hu tao, that's 2 deaths, Hu Tao wouldnt have been able to fire either. Either that or Bell survives i guess.

My role said specifically only people who visit at night

Then idk, maybe she used a factional ability on e N1.

[Sakura Hana]

Honestly, idk how the maelstrom of redirections worked, i do wonder if my role would've been redirected or MariaR's if she had been one of my targets N1.
I also dont know how im higher in NAR than a bus driver but not a redirector, but welp, i guess you gotta do what you gotta do with so many redirections.

[Sakura Hana]

Heh, i thought the Instigator role was pretty cool, at least i havent seen one that forces 2 people to target each other before, so i thought i'd give it a try. I picked it mostly for fun, then realized later that if i picked 2 scum, the chances of redirecting the NK towards themselves was pretty high lol.

[Sakura Hana]

I knew that most players would probably ask for dayvig

I mean, your signup thread literally was asking for it.

[Sakura Hana]

Either way i had fun, i've always liked role madness/upicks

[Sakura Hana]

I actually forgot i asked for an alignment cop lol

[Sakura Hana]

Unless your Role PM explicitly says otherwise, you cannot multitask (use more than one ability during a day or night phase).

So uh, where does twilight fall in this? iirc Twilight is supposed to still be part of the day no?

[Sakura Hana]

You know, the only role i've never rolled is Mason
