Thoth

I love the intelligent exchanges we have on here.

I noticed earlier that the writing style of Casey's tailored role PM was obviously not in Lunatic's hand, which should have been a dead giveaway, but I missed it and so did everyone else. Let this be a lesson in how you can miss the most blatant tells if you are not looking for them.

Aside from scum's nasty anti-claim mechanic, which was what I guessed it was except that I figured it could likely only target one person per night, my ability was something of a town anti-claim mechanic, hence why I suggested the possibility in day 1.

I have to admit that agreeing with Mikal's win condition was effectively quoting my PM, that I was therefore partially responsible for this game turning into a shitshow, and, if I had been summarily modkilled because of it, I would have been angry but I think I would have considered it justified after I calmed down.

Re: the mafia anti-claim mechanic

Permanently roleblock, meaning during all future night phases? Jeez, that is nasty.

Could the anti-claim mechanic be applied if town fake-claimed?

DVC?

Wait, extra NK? Jeez. I gotta re-read this whole thread.

It made us kill you over Mikal lol. That and the fact that Mikal was more of a known quantity.

So you caught that I was the lie detector? And how did Unsaid die? I thought I just read that Lunatic was scum.

None of y'all realized that I said, "Unsaid's role is investigative", so I could lie-detect my own statement, and that it probably made Unsaid shoot me and die? Only three people had claimed basically nothing about their role near the end of day 1: myself, Rex, and unsaid. I knew I was town and felt okay about Rex, so I said something about Unsaid's role so I had the option of lie-detecting it in case I decided not to test anyone's claims.

Already beat you to it.

Then I suppose it was wise of me to not vote Vader, since I knew that someone could vote Vader while I was writing that post. I guess I learned my lesson.

Although in this case I think the hammer needs to drop.

I'm ready to break the tie by voting Vader.

Wait what?

Forget that statement for now. You'll understand when the time is right.

explain?

Can't.

Unsaid's role is investigative.

I was talking hypothetically.

More or less.

If Airmax adds someone to his neighborhood, do they get into the chat that night or the start of the next day?

I’m ready to vote Vader also.

Let’s say that I had an action which, when used on someone, does one of these two things with equal probability and without telling me which one:

1. If they are town, I see “town”. If they are scum, I see “unsure”.
2. I see “unsure” regardless of whether they are town or scum.

Who would you most want me to use this ability on?

Unvote

Unvote

Vote: Pie

Unless I missed something big, I’m actually feeling worse about Pie.

If whiteflame does say how his role works, I might be able to clear him, but that will depend on the role. With mean anti-claim mechanics publicly known to exist, it might be better that he does not. I guess if he is 100% the elimination today, he might as well tell us during twilight.

I would be okay with voting whiteflame, Pie, or unsaid because they are all in my scum pile and, with no claim that I recall, I doubt that I can clear them.

I have not caught up completely on everything, by the way. I got on, saw that we were close to hammering with two claims, and needed to ensure that the day would not close before I could check whether or not I could clear awesome and Vader, or, much less likely, catch them in my wolf trap. Sorry for the inconvenience.

"awesome's and Vader's claims" meaning probably only one of them, but there's a small chance that it could be both. I don't want to give away which one I thought I was more likely to be able to clear.

I was thinking that awesome's and Vader's claims interact with my role in a way that I could clear at least one of them overnight, provided I make it to tomorrow, but, after asking some questions to Kohai, I don't think I will be able to.

Carry on.

DO NOT DROP THE HAMMER YET

I'm catching up with the thread now.

Do not hammer anyone until I have caught up or end up day is less than an hour away.

Trust me on that.
