I am not a ghost. But Skelda is obviously the bad ghost. Read their posts.

I guess I misread how it worked. I thought BG could only kill from the same place they hid.

The only place the bad ghost can't kill is in the place the good ghost is hiding.

They can kill outside their own hiding place.

No, Gamma is the bad ghost.

The bad ghost isn't going to kill in their own location so you can eliminate everyone who isn't me or Gamma right now, there's nothing to narrow down. We can analyze the kills technically based on if it's a kill I would make, so having opinions on my innocence or guilt is probably a good thing.

Yeah the game feels a bit weird with both ghosts knowing each other but I'm the other ghost

I'm don't particularly want to set up a hiding plan when I think that just ends in a stalemate anyway so I guess the game's just kill analysis and trying to figure out where at least one of us will hide each night?

maybe we can add cheeky clue riddles or something for the next hiding spots though

Clumsy, want to agree to enforce the big gamebreaking strategy I think you've also got in mind if the other dies? I die, you push it and win the game, you die and I do it?

How to Play:

1.
Each round, the players will enter a new locale in the carnival and be asked to hide in one of four hiding spots. Once everyone has hidden, hiding spots will be revealed, and the Bad Ghost will choose one of the Visitors to kill. The Bad Ghost cannot kill a Visitor that is hiding with the Good Ghost, UNLESS all Visitors and the Good Ghost are hiding in the same location.
(If this happens, the Bad Ghost will also be shown to be hiding in the same location.)
The Bad Ghost may choose not to kill if they wish; however, that will extend the game and likely lead to them being caught.
the bolded section actually does break the game since everyone can hide behind one ghost after both have announced a hiding spot and then see whether or not the other ghost gets auto-moved to them.

Oh that's true, lol we're going to win. This is broken.

Gamma, go to location 1 tomorrow. Everyone else go to location 1 too. I'm going to go to location 2. When I'm not dragged to the place that the rest of you are in, I'll be the confirmed good ghost. We can then repeat it will Gamma and he will get dragged.

The carousel whirs and whirs, and you scream and scream . . . it seems like it spins for an eternity until you can start to feel it slowing down. With a doubt, the carousel comes to a stop, and you can hear a clatter of bones. Cautiously, you look around . . .

Hm. Most people seem to be alive and well . . . but
D3f3nd3r
isn't on a tiger anymore. He must be that pile of bones rolling about the floor of the carousel.

- - -

It takes a moment, but you realize what's happened and you scream and panic. Frantically, you all dash off the carousel into the heart of the carnival. Everything around you seems so intimidating--the rush of rides, the sinister jangles of carnival games--except for the bathrooms. They look surprisingly clean and lavish for a pop-up carnival, you think. Is this good to be true?

48 hours seems like a really long time to wait btw, if it were possible for everyone to agree in-thread to end earlier or something that'd be good.

So like, all you guys talking about breaking the game go ahead? But I'm not aligned with any of you other visitors and I think people are missing that.
The Ghost is allowed not to kill if you keep doing this. Mr. Bad Ghost, if you do not kill me I will continue not hiding where everyone wants to break the game at.
Until they're willing to play like Survivors and randomize where they go that is. :P

I suggest killing one of the people who tried to break it in the women's washroom, down with them! Grr and stuff. Go Bad Ghost!

He isn't going to kill you Shadoweh, you are with one of the claimed ghosts.

But Gamma knew that that was a losing prospect so of course he couldn't play along.

Next round I will be going into the first option. Everyone who goes with me is safe from death. Gamma, If you go with me that is claiming to be the Evil Ghost. If anyone strays, they will be vulnerable for death. If no one strays, everyone will be vulnerable, but straying substantially increases your odds of death since as long as you are with me, you cannot die.

The objectively best way for people to win is to stick to one of the two ghosts, as the bad ghost killing somebody with either of the two ghosts immediately gives away who is the bad ghost. This is true for -everyone- regardless of the fact that we are all effectively survivors. If everyone hides with one of the two ghosts, the bad ghost cannot kill anyone without revealing that they are the bad ghost, and effectively then just gets to choose who wins the game. Anyone who -doesn't- hide with one of the two ghosts becomes a target, and will continue to be until it's down to only people hiding with one of the two ghosts. Sure, only 1-2 people can win this game (that being the good ghost and the player who picked them, or the bad ghost), but it is still objectively playing closest to your win condition as a non-ghost to stick to one of the two ghosts. That's what most increases your chance to win. Meanwhile, it actually plays closest to normal players and the bad ghost's win conditions to try and convince -other- players not to stick to one of the two ghosts, as for normal players it makes their opposition die, and the bad ghost of course wants it because more safe targets. Theoretically it would also possibly be good for normal players to sometimes not stick to a ghost in the hopes of further convincing other players that they aren't just trying to trick them into not sticking to the ghost.

The bottom line, though, is that Shadoweh is basically playing optimally by sticking to a ghost, all the while trying to convince other people not to stick to ghosts.

Oh I'm aware I can't be killed right now. I planned to say this regardless. It would be easier if you'd stop claiming where you're going actually, since as long as one of the ghosts does it we can't play the game. (probably should have been disallowed for ghosts to do that tbh)

I think I'm playing optimally by making a deal with the Bad Ghost actually. :P If you all aren't going to play fairly, I'm asking him not to kill me and I'll keep stopping him from being automatically revealed. Which is what it seems will happen if all the visitors are with one of the ghosts.
