I've mentioned previously suspicions of Ash I think

Oh sorry I misremembered your post (the last one on the previous page) to be the one where you voted in, even though continuity wise that makes no sense xD I understand now

@Random Bystander can you RP as Bookwyrm tonight to find out if the Analyst role is real? / get double the alignment scans if so

Wait a minute.

Stick said they had a pocket troll that would make sure they protected their target. What if they said they were going to do themselves, but actually did me to actually have a chance of blocking the kill, but their troll was an elimmy elim and didn't block Stick, hoping to kill the semi confirmed villager, and instead got me.

@DrakeMarshall Who is the troll you have a PM with and why did they try to kill you?

They said 'Why [all] the fun.' What's wrong with that?

I didn't. My role is a Day action. Not vote manip though.

[Ashbringer]

What exactly are you pressuring me to do? Not exe Steel?

Also Shining, where were you for almost the entirety of N2?

[|TJ|]

okay -.- after archer said i targeted you and you saw aman mention someone said to them that you were village, you assumed i scanned you as village. which i felt was a bit play acting. lads, im a goodie roleblocker. i thought mats action got blocked and he was acting like he was scanned by me instead. but now if hes saying the truth he wouldnt know the action i targeted him with. 

n1 - rbed shining
n2 - rbed mat

@Archer, who targeted whom in n1?

Really? I thought my vote on Biplet D2, I think, was slightly within her e!meta, but I guess the only reason I had was “other people are contributing and seemingly more villager”

I heard in the AN that Mouselet tends to be more defensive as a villager and more accommodating as an elim when receiving votes, or something like that.

Also, re:Sart, if you think he’s an elim, what do you make of his extreme negative reaction to my Referee claim? Elims don’t have a Goalkeeper and called BS? Would e!Sart dare challenge v/n!Aman?

i wanted to look at tani connections before i voted but my head is aching and i need to stay awake for client support smh. ill add on ashbringer

[Ashbringer]

Interesting.

In a class rn but I'll come back to this. Suffice to say I'm fairly confident in my Villageness.

[Archer]

1 hour ago, |TJ| said:

im so confused. bro what claim?

So I've now realized that I made a mistake. What happened was I announced that I had scanned TJ. Aman announced that his PM Spider scanned Mat. Then because I'd told Araris that I scanned TJ targeting Mat, I thought that I'd publicly said that part too. Sorry about that. I'm also genuinely confused about who the PM Spider who talked to Aman is

58 minutes ago, Amanuensis said:

Why would Xino be RB'd N1 by the elims?

If there is a village RB'r role...?

You might be going about this the wrong way. Because Xino was RBed N1, he had to die is also a possibility. I'm wondering if there's some SE Buddy like shenanigans going on where players start knowing a Fact about another player (some got lucky and got alignment) but an elim got Xino's role, which they blocked then killed him for.

A roleblocker you say! Wait you didn't block Aman because you targeted Mat. And I doubt I was Trolled. 

PM Spider gets a random tidbet of info about their target every other Night. This was my first go at it.

@Channelknight Fadran who did you troll N1 if you trolled RandBy N2?

(Also, an RPer that is Trolled doesn't give the role to the troll. The RPer's target, whose role they would have stolen, gets the RPer role)

Wish you claimed this earlier so I could have asked you to troll Book smh

Walin. Also nothing came up, but I don't think I'm supposed to know if I succeeded or failed.

 

Also why the elims tryna kill my boi Xino? :(

[StrikerEZ]

I am so confused right now.

[DrakeMarshall]

The thing about a blackout game with a bunch of scanner claims is that some of them are probably fake

Ed2T:

@DrakeMarshall you sure that your previous incarnation killed TKN and not Xino?

Hm. Does Goalkeeper mean anything to you?

Why is this a thing everyone is so surprised by?

4 hours ago, Shining Silhouette said:

I liked Stick's thought from last cycle (was it then?) about how at least one of the people who claimed is evil. It would probably be helpful to go back and see in which order people claimed but the thought of looking through like 70 pages scares me.

This leaves Walin, Danex, Randby, and Fae. Danex is dealive, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But I don't remember much about the other three. I guess I'll go on Walin

 

Bless you, a description of the roles!

Some of these are very funny  

Are these all of the current claims?

I mean, yeah, I bet some of the role claimers are evil and/or lying but that’s like 10 people having an evil in such a big set doesn’t really tell us much right

Seconded

copying scanners both lets us figure out if the scanner is lying and gives us additional scanners, so all in all it is great

that said, it only works if the RPer is in fact village and is in fact an RPer which may or may not be true at all

Well if we do accept v!TJ from this, then it does mean an RB role exists. @|TJ| do you mind sharing the name?

Slight tinfoil of a Mat, TJ, mystery PM Spider team? Idk. I want to avoid revealing this Spider for as long as possible if they are Village. (Will note they PM'd me N1, before RandBy revealed I was a Troll and not Neutral Referee, so I never got a chance to see if they would reveal to me)

Also if the elims have an RBer why not kill Book the same turn they block my publicly announced protect?

wanted to keep it in case someone was to claim later i could test if they actually are the role or not. im wall-poster. flavor like i post so much with so much content it discourages anyone else from doing anything :P. 

interaction with troll. if im trolled, my target becomes immune to any sorts of interruption slash interference.
