"Lynching"

Wryly · a year ago

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

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!!

If Thoth is telling the truth this still leaves us with someone who's a whole species and someone who's a specific life cycle of that species, which is weird.

If Casey, Vader, or Rex are scum we just handed them a free pass here. Sigh.

I'm really trying to parse this out to make sure there's not some massive miscommunication/lost in translation thing here.


Your character is Facehugger, your role is Apportioner because Facehuggers impregnate people which kills them after a gestation delay, but the justification (as you said) is that Facehuggers work against the interests of Xenomorphs?

If adult Xenomorphs are scum, the flavor is that I'm stopping the night-kill.


But we don't know they're scum, and Kohai isn't claiming to be "adult" xenomorphs, just xenomorphs. And would Lunatic really give you a clue to the theme split like that?

In addition to how does it work against xenomorphs, how does it implicate Kohai?

Really didn't want this DP to close before I got some activity from Vader, Casey, and Rex

You've VTL'd Kohai, who has fullclaimed, on the basis that your role PM incriminates him, but won't share your role PM. You're going to get lynched anyway if you don't claim.

My role card implies that adult Xenomorphs are scum.


I can't analyze this unless you full claim your role.


Yes. I am positive I am the Xenomorph


All xenomorphs? Eggs, facehuggers, hunters, queens?

Wryly

The role PM sounds like I am a Xenomorph but the justification for my ability is that it goes against the interests of Xenomorphs. I know it's weird.


So then how does the Facehugger go against the interests of Xenomorphs? Color me confused.


Wryly

I hadn't considered that because I figured that's basically just the Xenomorph, but you're right, definitely possible.

So if Thoth is the Facehugger and Kohai is the Xenomorphs in their (I'm assuming) adult stage, and Mikal is also a nonhuman species, he could be the Egg, or a non-xenomorph species entirely, like these guys:
