Stick. Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Good work elims, sorry village </3 For the record, my first post commenting on the elim team size was genuine - I hadn't checked my GM PM before posting that xD The Alpha+bloodsealing+crab legs accusation idea C1 was me trying to bring attention to Ash+bloodseal without being explicit about it, and I would've made the Alpha accusation had the new C2 clue not completely disproven the crab legs bit. The Archer+stone+bloodseal mix-up was intentional and I was waiting on confirmation from Araris about what would happen if I made an invalid accusation like that, but then Mat helpfully chimed in and pointed out my 'mistake' so I couldn't make that accusation anymore Archer is not elim btw. And then lastly I almost made that Mat+Bands+Rotspren accusation just to divert attention away from me but at that point I figured it'd be more suspicious if I didn't follow through on the chasmfiend idea.

Mat Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 So you’re saying I messed it up twice :| The other being when I didn’t guess the right thing before Stick did Three times if you count when I was the Assassin I wasn’t kidding when I said this wasn’t my type of game xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We kind of picked up on the Bloodseal thing, but we were also hoping the group was too hung up on whether or not Chasmfiend should have been accident or not. Although honestly I didn't think Araris actually meant Skeletal for an Elderly so I was more confused Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archer Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 1 hour ago, _Stick_ said: Archer is not elim btw. I've never gotten to fake claim elim before, that was just trolling :D. Well played, elims. Guessing the person who got the right guess is apparently a foolproof strategy, so I commend you for not over thinking it. 1 minute ago, The Wandering Wizard said: It's a pretty good environment to learn to be evil.

I didn't have any elim suspects this game, so you've got that going for you. Might have been eyeing Alpha actually. But point is you did well at going unnoticed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Paradoxical Phenomenon Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 Whoa I missed so much. I had a busy day and wasn’t able to look at the game very much. I was Village the whole time guys. I’m not sure why I was kinda trying to make it seem like I was an elim… I gueas I’ll never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kasimir Posted March 23, 2023 Report Share Posted March 23, 2023 2 hours ago, _Stick_ said: Nah, I think I should’ve just been more low key Should’ve brought out Toucan for this. Yes and no. I'd argue the issue with this format is that the Village especially if unlucky with tiles (imagine if we'd gotten a Time of Day tile instead) can often make a lot of really wrong guesses requiring nudges from the Witness. The secondary Elim wincon isn't so much a boon for them as a check on how much the Witness is allowed to feed the Village. Admittedly if they were going on an Accuser-is-the-Witness heuristic, it's possible to get burned, but given the last game, they were unlikely to not do it anyway. I would be sorry, but given my PoE was <Chasmfiend, Sandling, Nightmaw>, I wanted to hedge my bets against your being Evil and not burn my guess in case Chamsfiend was a scam, sorry not sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Araris Valerian Posted March 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Prompted by the Aracle, the SPF eventually concluded that AraRaash was guilty of killing the Ja, with Attic heading up the accusation. When the time came for AraRash's trial, however, Attic, who was the only claimed witness to the murder, was nowhere to be found. In the absence of his testimony and lacking further aid from the Aracle, who had gone strangely silent, AraRaash was released and the investigation was deemed inconclusive. As he left the SPF headquarters for the day, Aurel Kourrakis continued to turn some thoughts in his head that refused to be ignored. Nobody had heard of this "Aracle" until around the time of the Ja's death. It was rather convenient that a being capable of replacing the Ja would appear in the exact moment when the Ja was killed, and that this position would grant it unquestioned authority in the forthcoming investigation. Had ArarRaash been convicted, chances were that nobody would have thought twice about whether their source was questionable. As it was, Aurel intended to pursue his doubts until they were laid to rest. I want to thank everyone for playing! I had a lot of fun this game, and hope you all did as well. Congrats to @Ashbringer, @The Known Novel, @Fifth Scholar, @Telrao, and @xinoehp512 for winning round 2! Also a big thanks to @Devotary of Spontaneity for IMing for us.

StrikerEZ Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 I just wanted to say that despite how little I was around for this game, it was a blast to watch and try and wrap my head around. I think a game like this would be even more fun in real life. Also, huge thank you to @Araris Valerian for running this game and @Devotary of Spontaneity for IMing!

Ashbringer Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 AraRaash has gotten away with a lot, although killing the Ja is probably up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Ajah Posted March 25, 2023 Report Share Posted March 25, 2023 Someone should inform Brandon that he can longer write about the Ja because he was murdered by an worldhopping split personality Kandra with a tendency for solving and communicating murders. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
