I'm a little confused as to how this game ends now. Do we just keep playing until everyone meets/fails their win con? Or are there more Reckoners out there? (also, what is SK? )

SK stands for serial killer.

Do we just keep playing until everyone meets/fails their win con? Or are there more Reckoners out there? (also, what is SK? ) Seonid can't say this because he's the GM, but most games like these end when a major faction fulfills their win con. There are likely no more Reckoners, but I guess it's possible for there to be another one alive. My game analysis is strongly against it, though, and if you want I can tell you that reasoning. SK is serial killer. SKs almost always have 1 kill per night, and a win con to be the last person standing. They also usually have an extra life, which is why Ripple's extra life concerns me so much.

I am neutral, though. I don't really want to reveal my specific role, but a way you could help me achieve my win con is to tell me who you think may die next, if anyone (not lynch). You mean who the night kill could be? On 02/09/2017 at 11:17 PM, Shqueeves said: I've been unable to follow what has happened with any sort of attention, but I was summoned here twice in rapid succession, so here i am (at least, for a little bit). @Elenion, you asked me to claim, so claim I shall. I am a neutral player with the ability to make PMs (not that I've used it much) and will win by surviving and observing 3 people perform actions How will you observe people perform actions? Is there a night ability you have apart from PMs? Ripple. Right now, I think Ripple is most likely neutral due to the retraction of vote on Len. I have some sort of suspicions on Shqueeves and rebecca, mainly due to the quotes above. I don't think I fully trust Cole either but for now, anything important in that PM? That could help us win. @Sami Can you shed any light on your win-con. Can be vague like the others but at least some indication of what we're dealing with? Sorry if you've said something already, I've not read all the cycles so far. Elenion, do you have any ideas about the end-game conditions or any other suspicions? Edited September 4, 2017 by Megasif

Here's where my tactical notes get sketchy, but I do have some ideas. Even my own win con isn't clear as to exactly who constitutes a threat to Balelight--I'll ask a PM clarification about that. [For this I will assume that Drake was telling the truth about believing there is an SK, which makes sense considering that without an SK the Reckoners would likely have won last round, or if they needed to kill me than I should have won this round] Loyal Citizen: Destroy Reckoners, SK, and Malcontent Malcontent: Destroy Cabal, SK, and Loyal Citizen Reckoners: Destroy Cabal and SK Cabal: Destroy Reckoners and the SK SK: Destroy all other players The reason the game hasn't ended is because none of these have accomplished their win cons yet. The Loyal Citizen (me) hasn't killed the SK yet. The Malcontent died early. The Reckoners destroyed the Cabal but died before killing the SK. The Cabal all died before destroying either of the threats to them. The SK hasn't killed everyone yet. So basically, apart from the Neutrals working on their individual win cons, I think that I'm trying to kill the SK before the SK can kill everyone. Hence why it's in everyone's best interests to help me with my objective.
Megasif he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Can we assume that balelight is a role that someone currently has? From your win-con, an SK is most likely confirmed. And the game-ending win-cons are most likely just yours and the SK's at this point? Unless there's a member from one the groups still alive. There have been 4 Epics so far, I think it's a good possibility there's another reckoner? And from the discussion so far, if you are the SK's target, then he knows who you are if he didn't already. You say Elith is a confirmed black market, but do we know why? Sorry if it's already been mentioned. As far as I know, from the players list, the neutral roles have been unique, so it's hard to imagine that there would be two black-market arms dealers (Flash was the first). He could easily claim the role as there would not be anyone to dispute it. My role-name also is most likely unique as none of the players that have died have it and I think no one living has it either. This leads me to believe this could be a fake role-claim. It would be an easy pass to not ask for any additional info and input from the player.
Elenion he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 I have a win con clarification in from Seonid: for my win con, I actually didn't need to kill the Malcontent, but I needed to destroy the Reckoners, Epic Cabal, and any SK-type roles. Makes me really surprised that I've made it this far, but doesn't really change much game-wise. Hold on: @RippleGylf are you Balelight?

Sami she/her Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Lol I actually did at one point ask Seonid if Balelight could be killed. He said "not yet" I was like "wait, what?"
RippleGylf she/her Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Wait what?! Can you give some reasoning behind your vote change? 1
Elenion he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 I'm glad that Ripple isn't Balelight, because the claimed second life was reminding me of Balelight's daughter's role abilities, and if Ripple was Balelight then I'd likely need to protect her. Sorry, Ripple, but I don't know much about your role and what I do know implies that you're an SK. 4 hours ago, Sami said: Lol I actually did at one point ask Seonid if Balelight could be killed. He said "not yet" I was like "wait, what?" This might be LG28 all over again. In that game, the Heart of the House could only be killed once all eliminators were dead. Maybe, in this game, Balelight can be killed, but only in RP by a faction that has won the game.
RippleGylf she/her Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) Hold on... @Megasif, it's you, isn't it? You're Balelight.Elenion, would I really be daft enough to reveal to everyone that I'm Balelight? Edited September 4, 2017 by RippleGylf
Elenion he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 I didn't see that vote swap when I made my previous post, and it's got me worried that Megasif might actually be the SK.
RippleGylf she/her Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 (edited) Megasif, if you would have provided any modicum of reasoning behind your vote swap, I wouldn't be quite as suspicious of you. Elenion, as I stated before, would I be daft enough to tell everyone that I'm Balelight? Please don't kill me. I get the feeling you're either the SK or Balelight. Edited September 4, 2017 by RippleGylf Forgot to put in the actual vote :P
Elenion he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 @everyone, if Ripple is lynched neutral and I die tonight from an SK kill, put hard scrutiny on Megasif as possible SK.

Steeldancer he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 I was upset when I died. But great game! That was so much fun. Best game I've played in a while (in terms of enjoyment and RP).
Jondesu he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Sparks that was a bad start for us Reckoners. I knew I was drawing flak, but I also knew it might be too suspicious if I was posting but not going after anything. Well done to Majestic for pulling that off so skillfully, though! Len, I didn’t believe the Loyal Citizen claim, so even though I was long dead, I’m sorry your hard work didn’t convince very many people. And phew, that was a weird but fun game.
King Cole he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 And elith lost me the game. I'm sad now.
Seonid he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Author Posted September 4, 2017 Alright. All of the doc links have been edited in. Later today or tomorrow, I'll do a comprehensive listing of all of the items and epic powers in the game. And this game certainly deserves a detailed retrospective. I will do that in a day or two also. 1
Lemonelon Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Thank you everyone for a great first game <3 1
Megasif he/him Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 Yayyy lol Knew Ripple was the right choice.
