DEFCON Mafia 5.0: GAME OVER - NEW AMERICA FORMED

[gorilla]

Whatever. I feel like I owe this one to LLD.

NUKE: Robert M Hunter

[gorilla]

RMH, if you're town, feel free to suicide

[gorilla]

10 years and I finally get to launch a nuke

Look how far I've come

[joqiza]

Okay, well that works too xD

How’s it goin’

[Bell]

Because I enjoy taking responsibility for vague feelings, I will simply state that I thought Robert’s emotional response wasn’t quite right to LLD. I also, don’t disagree with IV.

Watch me eat my words when he flips green.

Hi, I’m thinking of saving T3 if DN doesn’t recall. We’ll see

Otherwise things are okay. Have had quite a busy week!! Much exhausting.

How are you?

[DeasVail]

Also I approve of Robert death, contrary to my previous feelings

[Bell]

I am tired. I am still trying to figure out coping strategies to working as a human being. Maybe I'll find some mysterious battery that gives me more energy when I run low after a work day ends.

This seems like a strange time to claim interceptor.
Why that choice?

Why do you feel so strongly about T3?

[Toogeloo]

This seems like a strange time to claim interceptor.

They claimed it earlier when they did a bigger read list.

[Bell]

Yeah, but if you're town isn't there a benefit to not claiming interceptor and just waiting for a submarine shot?

[samantha97]

submarine already claimed too btw

[DeasVail]

From my understanding of the roles, a submarine shot wouldn’t actually be very defendable at all?

Also, my reason for claiming when I did was partly because I felt myself becoming an easy PoE suspect for people (largely due to my own negligence) and so I thought being more transparent would be a good idea.
I also was seeking feedback on what would be worth doing with my role.

@Titus: it’s not that I feel strongly about T3, but more that game events point to T3 being town and he is also the kind of person that could realistically survive as a townread if not nuked

[The Church of Skitter]

DeasVail why is intercepting T3 better than not intercepting. Wouldn't it be better to save it for a nuke that was shot by scum or am I missing something?

[Bell]

Uh, isn't submarine a scum role.

[DeasVail]

I’m assuming that scum making a nuke are not necessarily going to let on that they are scum nuking?

[The Church of Skitter]

I think the threat of your role existing is stronger than actually using your role if that makes sense but ig it's fine if you just don't see yourself using it for anything else this day phase :/

[DeasVail]

Uh, isn't submarine a scum role.

?

[The Church of Skitter]

Okay so I kind of sound like an idiot now huh.

But still aren't you like, the only thing protecting major town players?

[The Church of Skitter]

sorry please be patient with me I'm stoned

[Bell]

It literally fires off a nuke at a target, but doesn't say who fired it and makes i difficult to know who shot it. It's pretty much an extra scum kill that can only be stopped by your role or the player being immune/deploying a nuke defense.

[Bell]

This also stops them from retaliating if they're that vengeful role.

I think someone outing themselves as scum by making a silly nuke is a worthy trade off by someone who would have been night-killed otherwise.

Realistically I’ll probably be too scared of the possibility of stopping a kill on scum to intercept the nuke on T3, but I am going back and forth over his ISO atm so we will see how I feel.

PEdit: no worries, I don’t really know what I’m doing. I’m honestly surprised that I got my first choice of troop given that I submitted very late.

Bell, I need to know who nukes in order to intercept. Also my understanding is that submarine is a troop option for everyone, so it could belong to scum or town
