Sounds like Mikal's plan is to lynch him today, because whether he's scum or town, that's workable for us.

Are you saying your plan is if he's town he'll be lynched tonight, and if he's scum we wait until it's 2-1?

Refer to post #199

Declare thyself, elusive cur

You'll still need a 4th vote to lynch Kohai when it's time. I assume people cannot VTL themselves.

where did we leave off at with the "we're forced to lynch Kohai today" exchange?

If Vader wasn't scum DP1 he's not scum now, or I'll eat my hat. The question is whether he was scum to begin with.

Then there's a possibility that Vader is the other scum and Casey picked whiteflame to convert, then whiteflame concocted this information handoff scheme to throw off suspicion.

She can?? Goddamn it I've only watched episode 1!

Kohai ban him for spoilers, smite him smite

I’m the engineers btw. I claimed earlier.

Called it 💅

This half claiming just gives scum time to think up what roles could go with their fake character claim. We should've full claimed.

I'm Wendy from Alien: Earth.

Aborting. I'll be in dodgy reception areas for the next 45 min.

I am pressed for time today and I could be in a no reception area on the road by the time you guys decide whether we're mass claiming or not. Kind of need to know if we're doing this at 1 EST still.

Turning in for the night. Hopefully I won't wake up to any more curveballs

But did you really need to full claim as well

This is assuming no protective roles are used ofc

So just to iron this headache out in my mind. Someone please check me here.

Kohai is town, is lynched, shoots the wrong person = insta-loss, scum reaches parity

Kohai is town, is lynched, waives = we're okay, but we're at LYLO next DP

Kohai is scum, is lynched = we're in the clear and at 3-1 next DP

Yeah that works. Why didn't this group change to that? Just an inconveniently longer word?

I’ll check. I think it’s voluntary though I intend on using it

If we lynch you this DP like Mikal and Pie are discussing, but you're town, we go from 5-2 to 4-2.

Then you take your shot. Let's say you miss.

3-2.

Scum makes the NK.

2-2. Parity.

You cannot afford to miss. If you're not certain of your shot, you shouldn't take it at all -- if you're town.

Who would you lynch and why

I'm not gonna make that determination before I hear from our inactives and process the variables on Kohai some more. I'd also like to hear the full claims. I don't want another rush into a blunder.

I’ll check. I think it’s voluntary though I intend on using it

If you are lynched this DP for math reasons, you intend to take the 66% chance of shooting a townie by mistake?

I never liked the word's use here. What would it be replaced with if it was changed?

who would you target and why?

It's been a really long day and I'm not sure what you're asking

also another possibility is they purposely did not recruit me to make me a lynch target and hope I’d kill town so they’d get three townies at once.

Is it possible for you to waive after you're lynched

I'm trying to crunch the numbers in my head rn, feels weird to be talking about a lynch based on math only here

Confirmed.

Last NP only Kohai's role was known to scum, and it posed a clear advantage for them if they recruited him. I don't understand why they wouldn't have chosen him tbh.

All I can say is mafia made a mistake by not recruiting me because my vengeful status does not deactivate in MyLo/LyLo.

Never mind I'm an idiot again. Misunderstood the Yakuza power.

But I wasted my last night action that's for sure.

Casey_Risk- You are Dr. Mason Wren, from "Alien: Resurrection". You are the head scientist onboard the Auriga. You are viewed as particularly immoral even among the scientists of United Military Systems. You take sadistic pleasure in your work. After 10 years, you succeeded in your goal of cloning Ellen Ripley, who would incubate a Xenomorph Queen. You used the newborn Queen to produce more Xenomorphs and betrayed everyone when they got loose. Though you didn't survive in the end, you are remembered for your efforts to convert fellow humans into fodder to recreate the Xenomorph species. You are thus the 1x Yakuza. On any night, you can choose to target a player and sacrifice yourself in order to convert that player to the mafia team. This can only be done in place of the mafia faction night kill. You win with the mafia.

Just like to point out that Alien Resurrection is still fucking me over 25 years later.

I saw this on VHS when I was 10 years old and the Ripleymutant in the lab who said "kill me" and the Xenomorph hybrid that said "Mama" to Ripley as she killed it were among the first movie scenes that mindfucked me. And 25 years later this movie is not done being a pain in my goddamn ass.

I don't understand how my role even matters if mafia have this power. How am I supposed to reason my way to a correct lynch or night action now ais;dfoaisd098sdfdp98g09!!

Will catch up when I get home
