Coral Swan Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 I'm kicking myself about not unvoting Ostrich, having seen that the game is still going. Should have realized that a Spiked who has given up on the game probably wouldn't backtrack on revealing themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chartreuse Penguin Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr Murph was cutting a log with a saw. Ideally it would make another bolt for the ballistae, a weapon to use against the koloss. Something for the town. Realistically, it was a log sawn a third of the way through. He hadn’t made any progress in the last three hours. No weight was behind his cuts. Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr He was under house arrest, or it certainly felt like he was. A few people had reassured him that he wasn’t under suspicion of being a Spiked, for all the nothing that meant. That they suspected the Endsayer too. It wasn’t the bloody Endsayer. It was Elephant. Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr Elephant had been suspiciously quiet. Most of the town agreed. But he’d been innocent after all. … and he’d just been standing there, and Murph had shot him in the head. Bartelby was ultimately half of what Murph had suspected him to be, and killed by the Endsayer. The Endsayer was self-defense. Elephant? Elephant was murder. One more murder in the mess of Tyrian Falls executions and Spiked, maybe. But this one was him. Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr Tyrian Falls. The town that crashes and curses and crumbles and takes. Aarne had been right about this place. He’d tried to talk to Murph earlier today. Murph hadn’t let him in the door. He didn’t want a lecture, to see how Aarne could try and see the point of view of a man who killed and killed. They’d both been killers, once. Guards, soldiers, Hazekillers, counter-Hazekillers… whatever they were called, whatever reason they each had for taking the job, at the end of the day that job was to kill. Aarne had found a better way to live. Murph had thought he had too. Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr But here he was. Murph. Carpenter. Armorer. Hazekiller. Sniper. Smoker. Accuser. Abandoner. Murderer. Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr Outcast. Ssshhhrrrr Ssshhhrrrr Sssssssshhhhhhhhhrrrrrcrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amethyst Scorpion Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 17 hours ago, Opal Lion said: What made it seem fake to you? I have my own opinion but I want to know what yours is. Ostrich was lock village in my mind. He had heavily pushed Vulture to lengths I don't think ever would come from a teammate. The claim itself was inconsistent. He first went from claiming solo Mistborn (which would create a distro that wouldn't make sense given the player count, imo) to claiming Ele as a teammate and then citing that as the reason for claiming. If that was true, he would have said it the first time. The timing of his claim doesn't make sense. It's one thing to openwolf to a thread that's killing you anyway (AG8 Hyena) and it's another to claim to a thread that has locked you in as village. People were even moving away from Ele at that point. Ostrich's playstyle. It's no secret who he is, and he literally said it multiple times. You'll be hard pressed to find a game where e!Ostrich doesn't fight till the very end. And then some. I can point to a very personal example of this! There was no world where e!Ostrich folds in a threadstate where the trains were on people other than his proposed elim team and people very solidly village read him. It would not happen. There was a post where he basically admitting to faking it. After I first called him out on this, he said "Aman? Trolling? Never..." which. Like. It's not hard to read between the lines there knowing anything about Aman as a player. 15 hours ago, Quartz Zebra said: If Croc is evil, we're assuming three inactive elims, which would be pitiful! Pitiful, yes, but possible. There's no way for GMs to use inactivity while balancing reliably so there's no way to use it to clear. The reason I want to shoot Croc is because there's no way they're going to do anything except filter dodge for the rest of the game. Killing them now means that if we fumble this further to exlo we don't have to blindly vote people we don't have any information on. 12 hours ago, Oxblood Beagle said: Why didn’t you vote Penguin there if you never believed it to begin with? If I'm honest, it was largely because I didn't read the thread after he initially claimed. I had IRL stuff, so I didn't log back on until ten minutes till rollover, and I skimmed everything too fast and missed Ostrich's initial reveal (which came a time that makes way more sense than when I thought he revealed around eleven minutes to rollover). This miss + a misunderstanding of how close the trains were + my busy day + an annoyance and apathy towards the thread + the village read of Penguin I still kinda have = me staying on Alb. Which was obviously the wrong choice but I'm kinda whatever about it because every single person yesterday also make a mistake /shrug 1 hour ago, Quartz Zebra said: My strategy is to collect the votes from tonight and do a weighted RNG for who to kill!

Iguana too I'd rather solve in thread because it's actually possible to do so, and Kangaroo is the null slot I village read the most. ...With you on Beagle, tbh >> Oooh and Iguana claimed.

Amethyst Scorpion Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 (edited) 39 minutes ago, Amethyst Scorpion said: I'll do another megapost later today regarding what I think the results from Ostrich's thing are. Later is now, apparently. Going player-by-player: Cham: Initial reaction: "You claiming Elim mistborn with bad luck?" followed up by "[vote]Ostrich I guess?" From here on out Cham radiates major Aftermath Energy (a term I just made up, but what I mean is that Cham's interactions with Ostrich feel exactly like the vibes of after the game is over and we're all just chatting in thread, which to me heavily indicates v!Cham) Iguana: Initial reaction: "Haha what" followed up by "Haha what ????" Asks about jesters as well as expresses doubt wrt Ostrich being solo (but not to the validity of the claim) Sort of just vibes around for the rest of the turn which I don't really liiiiike but I also can't point out specifically why I wouldn't like it so idek Agree that I don't like Iguana's haphazardness towards the claim, before and after, in general. Beagle: Initial reaction: "... This doesn't feel like a deserved win at all I'm so sorry" (with two further edits expressing how they feel they played like crem and a comment on the inactivity guidelines) I think this is really indicative of v!Beagle, actually. Which makes me happy because I was dreading finding the opposite read here loooool. But no, I think the continued edits and the comments on OOG stuff are v!indicative despite their surprising acceptance of the claim for someone who I would have thought would know Ostrich well enough to doubt (though admittedly i have zero idea who Beagle is) Their desire to vote for a draw is also majorly v!indicative. I think they also dropped their anon persona a bit which goes back to Aftermath Energy Penguin: Initial reaction: None. Jumps straight into the banter and ignores the claim completely. I have no idea how to read this. e case: He's avoiding showing TMI on the situation v case: The claim was a page back by this point and the reactions had kind of run their course. Secondary reaction: "Anyway what is going... what" Again have no idea how to read this. Could be a villager realizing they should probably mention the matter at hand or an elim... realizing they should probably mention the matter at hand. Lion: Initial reaction: "Sigh" followed by an unrelated quote, but then followed by (technically thirding) the call for a draw. Again, I village read this, but if someone wants to tell me I'm confbiasing my village reads that is a totally fair thing to think. I also village read their reaction to Ostrich's retraction. Zebra: Initial reaction: "Guys, I had this epiphany that Ostrich might be evil! Why are there so many pages, what did I miss!" followed by them saying their two shots would have been Ostrich and Ele. That reads very conveniently evil to me but at the same time I don't know if e!Zebra says that knowing they're both village. I do like his line of 'Sorry about your luck, I'll ask questions after the game' though. Albatross: Initial reaction: First post back is unrelated. Second post back is a VC. Third post back is an activity update (still unrelated). This looks like a far worse version of Penguin ignoring the claim. With the VC, there's no way they don't have an idea of what's going on, so they're blatantly dodging making any kind of comment on what happened, which looks like they're dodging revealing their TMI. @Quartz Zebra it's definitely worth shooting here tonight. Swan: Initial reaction: "I think I'll vote for Ostrich. Sorry that your team went inactive, I was having fun. I think I'll stick around and try more of these." My read of this heavily relies on if Swan is actually new. If they are, I village read this. If they aren't, I elim read this. Meerkat: Initial reaction: To naked vote Ostrich, after Ostrich revealed it was a gambit. Funnily enough I'm willing to lock this village because surely an elim doesn't vote wrong here with their TMI after Ostrich just gave them a reason to not. Kanga: Initial reaction: None, because Ostrich revealed before they could see it. They posted to say that, which I think is NAI. TL;DR (but do read pls): Cham village because of Aftermath Energy. Beagle village because of apologetic reactions and offering for a draw. Lion village for confusion and seconding the draw. Meerkat village for voting Ostrich after Ostrich revealed the gambit. Zebra village for apologetic reactions and for guestbook comment. Swan village if new, evil if not. Albatross evil because they were actively avoiding commenting on the situation. Iguana ??? because Iguana. Penguin ??? because. My PoE right now is [Penguin, Swan, Alb, Croc, Iguana, Kanga] 28 minutes ago, Quartz Zebra said: so now I want to shoot Scorp! Trust your gut.

I dislike how much effort you put into explaining why your reaction (seeing through the claim) was reasonable (and not TMI)! And your post was very much playing not to lose! Hitting Croc is just stalling! Tell me the two players you think make up the elim team right now! Two people who are paired! If your answer involves a filler person like Croc, it's not compelling! We killed all their filler people, I hope! Everyone's looking like a nail now that I have a hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your answer involves a filler person like Croc, it's not compelling! We killed all their filler people, I hope! Everyone's looking like a nail now that I have a hammer. Fair, but everyone else’s failure to catch on tilted me and I put an absurd amount of thought into Lion’s question so I wanted to give it an absurd answer. A small part of it is my pride wanting to prove how right I was as well, honestly. I mean… yes, but no? You can’t honestly prefer to have an exlo with you, Swan, and Croc to having an exlo with you, me, and Iguana. I mean maybe you do but I sure don’t :P. So the only compelling/possible teams are those with active players? It would be nice to know we’ve killed all the filler people but there’s no way to know that. But to answer your question, my best guess is Alb and Croc, the latter because I have a reason to village read other people. If you shoot anywhere in my PoE I’d be satisfied though because I don’t actually have a reason to e read Croc. But shooting outside of my PoE (or any serious PoE) is unnecessary deepwolf hunting at this stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chartreuse Penguin Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) I’ll second that I would prefer the lurkers (Swan, Croc, Kangaroo, EDIT: and Albatross) get taken out soon / before the more active trusts (Scorp/Beagle, etc). Both for solving effort and to not get Dingo’d. Edited January 15 by Chartreuse Penguin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saffron Iguana Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 (edited) Tbh it might be better to not shoot tonight if you trust I’ll keep you safe? Idk if mafia can double stack here if they do have a mistborn and a shot but regardless if you don’t feel secure with a shot you either shoot Poe or don’t shoot here. edit: side note but scorpions progression on me has being weird tbh. like between saying i should be the vote/kill and now saying “i kinda v read them anyways” is rlly pingy fmpov Edited January 15 by Saffron Iguana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opal Lion Posted January 15 Report Share Posted January 15 I also wanna comment that if i was an Elim I also might not kill zebra tonight simply because if his intended targets he's said so far are village then theres the chance you get multiple kills And if he starts to suspect you then you can prob get the village to back an inactive exe Think the shot should def be in the less active players and I would towncase myself right now if i cared to but I think zebra is just tunneled on me for some reason ? And I don't know really why at all so if he shoots me he shoots me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that’s what you mean. I think you’d be a useful slot to flip because of how polarizing you’ve been and I can understand a lot of the e cases I’ve seen (like on a base level I agree with Beagle’s and Lion’s suspicion of your reaction to Ostrich and I don’t like you suddenly flipping on me when other people have begun to do the same) but I do like your vibes and the metacase is real so I’m at a solid ???
