Open 856: Deputy cultists (Game over)

[RH9]

There is also the route where we let cult recruit because then if we kill the recruit

No, unless you want play mindgames with cult.

I agree.
Killing the recruit just lets the Cult use the Vengeful to take out Town and help them win.

[Beat]

Yeah, that's what I thought. But what's optimal?

Not in terms of claims, like I clearly am not that girl, but in terms of scum hunting - coz surely the non leader cultists almost want to be elimed, so that recruit can happen?

So we are looking for someone scummy but not too scum y? Even though in a normal game it's maybe worth elim-ing like...korina, as they could well be 'scum'? Or not? In trying to work out how associatives work too.

@enchant, can you explain more about cultists making the leader look good?

@beat, cool, I've asked you to explain your reads twice already. I work a lot better 1 on 1, so please chat things through with me.

You feel especially non confrontational as well as not feeling particularly pressured.

Effectively you are playing how I would expect the Cult Leader to play.

[Bellaphant]

Tbf I'd love a bit more pressure and engagement but what you've basically described is bella playing mafia, especially on day one. Titus, bbt and cat can probably confirm.

Is there anything specific you want to ask me about/discuss?

[Cat.Jpeg]

Yea I think this is NAI for her, from the one game I played with her.

[Cat.Jpeg]

I almost feel like CL is in the vengeful claims

[Cat.Jpeg]

I don't think Korina, Bella, or Enchant are CL.

Explain literally any of these?

Enchant: D4 gov
Korina: too risky for CL but I don't know their normal playstyle. As someone who loves cult games you would think if they got CL they would be putting more effort in.
Bella: Seems in line with town bella. It is just day one though.

[Jacket]

Somehow I wasn't actually expecting a fakeclaim. Think Rh9 makes way more sense as cult doing it than Nathann considering he was significantly more likely to be voted.. But wouldn't bother because cult leader is probably outside the vengeful claims anyway.

[Jacket]

I'd rather we just played.

I disagree.
I see no reason why CL would want to do that.
It's too risky.

[RH9]

By the way, Venging a Cultist doesn't activate the recruiting ability, right?

[Enchant]

It does.

[RH9]

Thanks, Enchant.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Me thinks Titus needs looking at

[furtiveglance]

Here's a thought: What if CL decided to claim vengeful.

This is partly because I'm not over my RH9 sus.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

I thought that, too.

Just seems too risky I think

[Bellaphant]

VOTE: beat

Out tonight, around tomorrow.

P-edit something about the beat/rh9 interactions are weird.

[RH9]

Bellaphant, you think that Beat is Cult?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

No, she thinks they're town.

[RH9]

Oh.
Got that.
Then, what's read about her interactions with me?

[RH9]

Oh.
Got that.
Then, what's weird about her interactions with me?

EBWOP

[BlueBloodedToffee]

So, I'm guessing, and bare with me because I'm just spitballing here...

She thinks you're cultist and Beat is Cult Leader... Shock! Drum rolls etc etc.

I know, I know. I'm really good at reading between the lines.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

But that's impossible if Bella is Cult Leader, right?

[RH9]

But that's impossible if Bella is Cult Leader, right?

Yeah.
I never thought that Bella was CL, but it does make more sense to me that town!Bella's worried that I'm aligned with Beat rather than us being T/S.

[RH9]

To be honest, I dislike the wagon on Bella.
I can find nothing wrong with her posts and no reason why anybody should vote for her.
