Also, remember that E-2 is E-1 and halfasleep is hammer-happy.

This sounds like bullshit given that as I have stated, my role informs me when I am targeted by a role

Specifically like, in the middle of the night

and then I get to make the call on whether to redirect that to anix

A random redirection element existing in the setup in addition to the way my PM is worded would not make sense

Also, this is an 11p game, so any fart noises about a malicious 3p in a game where we have had a single nightkill on a slot that wasn't even in the game at the start will not be entertained at this moment

though I will be surprised if ITF's partner has an arson-like kill
and
a regular night kill.

I assumed that ITF's arson-like thingy would have people be told when they get warned but can't remember if that was in the PM

Official Vote Count [1.3]

With 11 players, it takes 6 to Ban. Deadline: (expired on 2024-05-13 11:11:11).

Voting
ITF:
5 (Dannflor, Skygazer, PookyTheMagicalBear, The Cabal, halfasleep)
The Cabal:
2 (ITF, WePick)
WePick:
1 (humaneatingmonkey)
Klick:

not voting [2]:
, ɀefiend, Klick


ETA: There was non-material mistake in the vote count. WePick was listed as having two votes despite only humaneatingmonkey voting for them in the final count. This has been corrected. All other aspects of the vote are correct


Honestly, I think five is close enough to six, DON'T YOU? I know at least one of you agrees.

ITF is Banned. They were
The Color Red
.

You are
The Color Red
. Red is the color of Administration on this site. The head honcho. The big cheese. The one true Administrator. And it is time the userbase started to respect what that means.

You are part of The Administrative Team and your [NUMBEROFTEAMMATES] is [NICETRY]. You may talk to them here during night phases and confirmations. You may NOT post there during Day Phases, but your [NUMBEROFTEAMMATES] can.

Each Day Phase, you may choose to Warn a player. This player will be considered Warned for the remainder of the game. These warnings are not public. You will be told every player who has been Warned, even if it is not the player you targeted.

Once per day, if a member of The Administrative Team took no action the previous night, you may choose to Ban a Warned player.

You are
Admin-aligned
and win when all
User-aligned
players are Banned and at least one
Admin-aligned
player is not Banned.

Please respond to this PM within 48 hours with a brief summary of your role to confirm having read it.


It says the warnings aren't public, but doesn't say whether the warned player will be informed that they've been warned. It also says that ITF could choose to ban A warned player, not multiples.

hmm

So you're told that you're targeted? not by whom or what action?

In post 580, Dannflor wrote: I guess WePick's vague "70% chance HEM is scum" thing reads to me like a pocket read they hope becomes more clear mechanically, i kinda think they'd be more upfront if they had something like a soft guilty

which is not to diminish WePick's read, but I don't particularly have an opinion on HEM and I have a selfish interest in MY pocket read being correct

as far as Zefiend, their awkwardness could be attributable to this being their first game back on this site in years, I don't deny that

but i think they kinda overreact to suspicion while trying to maintain a jokey demeanor in [posst]471[/post]. that cross of being genuinely annoyed by someone taking your RVS post as suspicious while still trying to be like "lol idc im jsut being silly" is the type of contradiction that comes from scum a lot. you'll see townies drop the playful tone and just get annoyed, or stay playful and not seem annoyed at all, but scum ends up doing both a lot of the time

also idk what they are saying in . it's hard to figure out what position they actually have and it reads appeasey. like yes they don't mind mass claim but also they don't want to claim but yes they realize that's suspicious but maybe someone smart can figure out how to work around it. idgi

This is all a fair explanation. I'm trying to show intent on scum hunting and understanding the game but 1) it's bastard, 2) I legitimately missed a whole Day, 3) I reply to Cabal and get nothing in return (either strategically or because of having 11 heads)

I feel like HEM's done less than everyone to that end except Klick at this point so no problem going there. But if somehow Klick's role overpowers a prod then there is some serious bastardry going on.
contrast this to zefiend’s attitude towards me today

You are the
Benevolent Chaos Lord
. If you are targeted by any ability action, that action will instead be randomly redirected to a different target. You will learn what you were targeted with, but not who targeted you or who it was redirected to.

Each night, you may choose to extend this ability to another player. If you do so, if that player is targeted by any ability action, that action will instead be randomly redirected to a different target. You will learn what they were targeted with, but not who targeted them or who it was redirected to.

Each day, you must make one new false claim about your role. This claim can be any new information about your "role" and can be as specific or as general as you want, it just cannot be something you have previously shared and it must not be anything actually true about your role, name, or alignment. Edge cases will be subject to mod discretion. If you fail to do so, either by failing to make a new claim or claiming true information, the following night your role will become "Ambivalent Order Peasant" for the duration of that night and all night actions that could target you will.
