Edit4: Anybody have any theories for why this game has no voting minimum and forbids a "no exe" as a vote? Both of these are deliberate, not entirely standard rules for voting, and must be for a specific reason.

Most of Kas's games specifically have No Vote Minimum. I don't see a "no exe" vote rule, but that's not typically a rule, is it?

Kas usually runs no vote minimum games?

Kas is this tru

I am pretty sure its at least a little weird not to have any vote minimum

there is not a "no exe" vote rule explicitly stated in the rules or whatever but I asked about it

I am reasonably convinced that this does actually have a specific purpose although it probably isn't actually a mystery we need to solve

Well MR61 specifically had it in the rules, so…

Yeah. It has the function of forcing players to exe and bypassing the no D1 exe debate, when coupled with 'ties kill via RNG.' Classic Tyrian is one vote minimum and ties don't kill. These days I feel it's an even split between one vote minimum and no vote minimum rulesets, but ties kill via RNG tends to be more common.

Whether there is an additional function given this game set-up, PAFO.

May I recommend that our resident meme makers each check one of the PM spiders scanning tonight?

I think that is the main type of action tonight where knowing if trolled or not makes a big difference, right?

[Biplet she/her]

At this point I'm not sure what to do with my trollscan, so I'm gonna open it to y'all to see what we want to do with it regarding the PM spider stuff.

I think you should probably use it on JNV?

[Ashbringer he/him]

I'd prefer Bip on Wizard and Araris on JNV, but it doesn't matter that much.

[Biplet she/her]

I can scan wiz then

Honestly, I'd prefer to have Drake shoot JNV tonight and Aman protect him, above unkilling Aman. That should math out to D9 (Drake/Wiz/Ash/Araris/Mat/Bip), N9 (Drake/Wiz/Ash/Araris/Mat), D10 (Wiz/Ash/Araris). Versus losing Drake tonight leads to D9 (Aman/Wiz/Ash/Araris/Mat/Bip/JNV), N9 (Aman/Wiz/Ash/Araris/Mat/Bip), D10 (Wiz/Ash/Araris/Mat/Bip), N10 (Wiz/Ash/Araris/Mat), D11 (Ash/Araris/Mat).

I can see a logic here, but it's interesting how you assume you won't ever be targeted by the elim kill.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm fairly well clear, but not clear as day. No one ever actually scanned me. And the Elims need to take you out to stop the NKs and that only happens once Aman dies. Killing me doesn't actually change much.

You supposedly can't be exed though which if you're village the elims might not like to deal with in the endgame ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

well I suppose I technically predicted both kills although one of them you could say I had a rather unfair advantage for

 

[Ashbringer he/him]

Oh good I thought Drake shot me to prove a point

UGH

KAS

THAT IS NOT WHAT YOU SHOWED ME ON D3

WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE THAT

[Amanuensis he/him]

Shame. For a while my order was protecting Ash, but I switched to Trolling Sart expecting to die myself

... did that work? I mean obviously I'm a little dead but did the action go through?

I was PAFO'd before I tried it. I got a success PM but it seems Sart didn't submit the kill, unless that RNG'd to you

[JNV]

My scan came back with evil Biplet so good job Drake now the question is whos partnered actually I can answer my own question if I consider Drake Adavantos Wizard clear for the protect shenanigans and trust my Matrim scan then Im left with one option but before I just plop my vote down question what was the ambiguity around the Araris village scan I remember some talk about that

[Ashbringer he/him]

Also I made a thing

[Mat he/him]

A Drake/JNV team is too obvious to be right, yeah? Someone tell me I’m not crazy. Cause that kill and that scan seems real neat and tidy which makes me nervous.
