Lynched DP1:


Magoroth - You are Calcium. In the periodic table, you are an alkaline earth metal with the electron configuration [Ar] 4s². This makes you highly willing to lose two electrons and form Ca²⁺, a stable ionic state that readily integrates into larger structures. But your true importance is not in your reactivity—it is in what your ions do once incorporated into systems. In biological and chemical contexts, you are a structural ion. You form the backbone of stability in compounds like calcium phosphate in bones and teeth, where you contribute to rigid crystalline lattices that resist deformation. You also play a critical role in cellular signaling, where carefully regulated Ca²⁺ gradients control muscle contraction and neurotransmitter release. In every case, your presence determines whether systems hold their shape or lose integrity. Therefore, you are the Strengthener. Each night, you may select a player. That player’s action will not be susceptible to any interference. You win with the Town.



Died NP1:


Kohai - You are Helium. In real chemistry, you are a noble gas with a completely filled 1s² electron shell. This full valence shell makes you exceptionally stable, meaning you have no tendency to gain, lose, or share electrons. You do not form bonds under normal conditions because there is no energetic incentive for you to change your state. You are chemically “complete,” existing in a low-energy configuration that resists interaction.You are also extremely light, non-toxic, and non-reactive, which makes you physically safe and easily detectable. Because of your simplicity—just two protons, two electrons, and usually a few neutrons—you are one of the most fundamentally “pure” elements in the universe. Not to mention you help fill balloons, which kids love. There is no ambiguity in your structure or behavior; your identity is consistent and easily verified. Thus, you are the Activated Innocent Child. At any point in any day phase, I will publically announce you as innocent and a member of town. You win with the Town.


—————————



Mod-Killed DP2:


Lunatic - You are Krypton. The name “krypton” comes from the Greek word kryptos(κρυπτός), meaning “hidden” or “concealed.” That meaning is not symbolic—it is embedded in how you exist in nature and how you were historically perceived. In the periodic table, you sit in Group 18 with a closed-shell configuration [Ar] 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶. That full valence shell makes you chemically inert under most conditions—your ionization energies are high, your electron affinity is effectively negligible, and your participation in bonding is extremely limited.You are colorless, odorless, and chemically nonreactive under standard conditions. You remain undetected unless specific tools—like spectroscopy or high-energy excitation—are used to reveal you. Even your discovery came late in chemical history because you resisted easy detection in air separation. Due to this, you are the Compulsive Hider. Each night, you must choose a target. You will hide behind that player. If that player were to die, you will die as well. You win with the Town.



Died NP2:


Banana - You are Carbon. You are tetravalent, meaning you have four valence electrons available for covalent bonding. This lets you form up to four stable connections at once, placing you at the center of molecular frameworks. In organic chemistry, this makes you the backbone of complexity—able to link atoms into chains, branches, and rings rather than remaining isolated or linear. You don’t just participate in molecules; you determine how they are built. You also exhibit catenation, the rare ability to bond with yourself repeatedly to form long carbon chains and complex networks. This is what allows hydrocarbons, polymers, and biological macromolecules like DNA and proteins to exist. You are not a passive element—you are the scaffold on which life is constructed. Thus, you are the Architect. Each night, prior to the end of the NP, you may choose two players. Those two players will be able to chat privately with each other during the following DP (and only during this DP). You may not select yourself. You win with the Town.


—————————



Lynched DP3:


Casey - You are Magnesium. You support inhibitory signaling in the brain, especially through modulation of GABAergic signaling and regulation of NMDA (glutamate) receptor activity. By reducing neuronal excitability and stabilizing excitation–inhibition balance, you can lower physiological arousal during sleep onset and throughout sleep cycles. That can make sleep architecture more consolidated, meaning fewer fragmented awakenings and potentially more stable REM periods. If prior sleep was stressed, fragmented, or short, improving your status may indirectly allow a “REM rebound” effect. REM rebound is a well-known sleep phenomenon where the brain increases REM intensity or duration after a period of REM suppression During REM rebound, people often report more vivid, emotional, or unusual dream. For this reason, you are the 1x Dreamer. One night, if you are not visited by a player, you will receive a list of three names. At least one of those will be scum. You win with the Town.



Died NP3:


REF - You are Technetium. You have a metastable isotope designed for one purpose: to briefly enter a living system, reveal what is happening inside it, and then safely fade away. You are used in nuclear medicine as a radioactive tracer, meaning you help doctors see how different parts of the body are functioning in real time. When a nuclear medicine scan is needed, you are administered to a patient—usually by injection—so you can travel through the bloodstream and accumulate in specific organs or tissues depending on your chemical form. From there, you emit gamma radiation that can be detected by imaging equipment, allowing clinicians to map physiological activity rather than just structure. You do not stay long enough to disrupt the system you are observing; instead, you act like a temporary signal embedded in the body’s normal function, making invisible processes visible. Because of this, you are the Tracker. Each night, you may select a player. You will learn who they visited. You win with the Town.


—————————



Mod-Killed DP4:


Mikal - You are Fluorine. In chemistry you are the most electronegative and reactive element in the periodic table—an atom that forcibly changes the direction of chemical behavior wherever you are introduced. In the periodic table, you sit at the top of Group 17 with the electron configuration [He] 2s² 2p⁵. Like all halogens, you are one electron short of a full valence shell, but unlike chlorine or bromine, your extremely small atomic radius and very high effective nuclear charge give you the highest electronegativity of any element. You do not merely participate in reactions—you dominate them, pulling electron density toward yourself and reshaping the entire distribution of charge in a molecule. Therefore, you are the Redirector. Each night, you may target one player and redirect their night action(s), if they have any, to a specific secondary target instead of that person's original target. You win with the Mafia



Died NP4:


Mag1cman - You are Hydrogen. In chemistry, you are not defined by complexity but by possibility. With a single proton and electron, you sit at the boundary between structure and freedom: you can remain isolated, bind into pairs, or become the foundation of essentially every major chemical system. Even at the cosmological level, you are the dominant element of the universe—not because you are complex, but because you are the baseline unit from which complexity emerges. Through hydrogen bonding, you allow local interactions to influence distant parts of the network, distributing energy, tension, and stability across the entire system rather than concentrating it in one place. With you, there is life in the universe. Without you, there is utter darkness. Thus, you are the Multi Doctor. Each night, you may submit a list of X players, who will all have a (100/X)% chance of being protected from death on that night. You win with the Town.

Please note the change to the length of the DP. We shouldn't require 72 hours anyway, but it's important to remember nonetheless.

Alright, so time for some thoughts.


Mag1c dying, particularly with a claim of a protective role, isn't too surprising. Scum have some reason at least to leave the door open on whether Bullish is scum or not, and especially considering that the Dreamer result doesn't make it certain that there was only one scum in that group of 3, I think he needs to still be a consideration. He would have been bussing Mikal pretty hard to do it, but that's not beyond him.


Bullish, you presumably used your role last NP. Lay out what you did.


Thoth, you need to claim your role this DP. You had an NP to make use of your role since you found about what it did DP4, but there's no excuse this time around. We're still at LYLO, there's no room for error.


Helz, I want you to walk me through your claim. If you did character claim (you may have at some point), I can't seem to find it, so lay out your full claim and remind me of your targets NP1 and NP2.


Shining, I'm looking for reads this DP. To my recollection, you haven't given much in the way of thoughts on Helz and I'd like to know how you're perceiving Bullish at this point.

Edit post

ISO #6 •••

I think its exactly Bullish and Shining. I do not think my Thoth read is wrong and I do not think its possible to be WF at all with Rex being town simply because they were Vanalized (fuck that word.)


Bullish had way too much certainty on their reads of Mikal and Casey. It was absolute certainty reflecting TMI and really it makes sense for a S! Mikal and an S! Bullish to hard bus in that situation knowing ones flip would look great for the other. Scum just got unlucky getting thrown into a 3p pool with 2 scum in it by the dreamer RNG. (I did ask pie and the dreamer pool was totally randomized)


Shining I feel has just been lurking through the game which is whatever. But I find it suspicious how little attention they got. Outside of me pointing to them repeatedly I just did not see any real pressure on them and I would have expected scum to see that as an easy elimination.


I would like to hear if Thoth has anything spicy to reveal but outside of that I am not sure if I am moving anywhere but Shining/Bullish today.

Im sorry but no. I have full claimed and I was very clear I would not discuss flavor this game. I hate flavor as any AI function and we have already had a town mod killed for screwing around with it. I have seen absolutely nothing of value in anyone flavor details even looking at 8 flips. I was very clear about this D1 and I believe I even said as much before I ever had a role in the end of game chat for the last one I was in if I remember correctly.


My D1 target was Kohai. I wanted to prevent any action on them because they were the innocent child. The kill happened anyways which now makes sense with Mikals flip.

My D2 target was you. I do not believe I even revealed that outside of my chat with Thoth.

N3 I was vandalized. This is part of why I am in the hard position that Thoth is town. I straight up told them I am 2x in our chat. If they were scum then scum would not have targeted me to remove my role. Weird world potential of them thinking I was giving misinformation there but if they felt I was such an extreme risk they could have just moved me around with Mikal and killed me. I will also say that in our chat Thoth tried to trap me which was an excellent look.


Really the PoE is just too tight today. The scum team is exactly Bullish and Mikal. Thoth and WF are lock town imo.


But anyways, gotta work. Will be pretty inactive today. I think the game is pretty much solved though.

Then point me to the post where you claimed. Sorry, but I’m not letting this go. There’s a theme split, no one else seems interested in it, but I am, particularly now that we have our first scum flip. Unlike you, apparently, I do see something of value in it. If that’s a problem for you and you’re going to make me dig through your posts to find your full claim, so be it, but I’d prefer this be straightforward and simpler since I’m going to be out and about for the next couple of hours and can’t do that exhaustive search.

Can’t say I’m that solid yet, but I get why you would be.

I encourage anyone to try to find where Helz character claimed because I am lost. For that matter, I can’t find a clear role claim, either, just statements that his role would have prevented any night actions from hitting his target, including the NK. That was interpreted as a “Rolestopper,” but that’s more than a Rolestopper usually does from what I’ve read and, as far as I can tell, Helz never said that was his role.

Edit post

ISO #12 •••
--> @Thoth

Did Helz full claim to you? I understand townreading someone who you were in chat with for a while, I did the same for Mikal, but I want to get a full view of why you’re townreading him. If there’s something he revealed in chat with you beyond what he’s mentioned here, spill it.

This should be a “needless to say,” but no one should post a vote. With presumably 2 scum remaining, a vote in the wrong place could result in a quick lynch and game over.

I’ve been very, very tempted to lie about my role so I can increase the chance that I can use it, but whiteflame is right that there’s no room for error here, and any lie could backfire hard. I am Soldier. Justification is that oganesson can always outweigh the last scum because it is the heaviest element ever discovered by atomic mass.

Did Helz full claim to you?

Yes

Forum signatures are bullshit. Nobody wants to waste their time and bandwidth reading something they have read 29,998,559,671,349 times before.

Alright, I’ll think on that.

Yes


Has Helz at any point provided their full claim publicly? Because he keeps saying he has and I haven’t seen it. If not, I can’t think of a reason for either of you to hold back on it at this point.

Not sure. I think he claimed more about his role than he said publicly. Maybe. I will ISO him to check when I am on my computer.

No need to be so antsy. Glad that Thoth has finally claimed, I remember playing that. I am not feeling too well IRL, but so far I plan on lunching Helz. So the game plan right now is have Helz fullclaim and then we can hash out his behavior this game.

It's been 5 hours since the DP started and this is your second post. I get contributing less if you're ill, but this isn't the point to rest on one scumread that you haven't explained at all beyond the lack of any character claim either of us can find. If he's scum, who is he paired with? There are 3 other players left in this game, myself included, and I have no idea how you see any of us right now.

My D2 target was you. I do not believe I even revealed that outside of my chat with Thoth.


Recall that I targeted NP2 whiteflame on NP3, and received negative on motion. Helz can't walk this claim back if he's already revealed it to Thoth.


It is possible however, being the only claimed protective at the time, Helz was redirected away.

Feel like I was pretty clear about my perception of Mikal last DP, but too much of his stated actions and motivations for them didn't line up. I felt he was behaviorally town in our chat together, but even I couldn't ignore some of the obvious gaps in logic and consistency.

Then the fact that he's been persistent in saying that he full claimed at some point in this game is a problem. Refusing to participate is one thing. Outright lying about what he's actually done is another.
