Ivory Dragonfly Posted July 13, 2018 Posted July 13, 2018 Right, I'm going to go to sleep soon. I might not post again this cycle. So, I'm going to put up some thoughts on this lynch, and then call it a day. I can see a few possible outcomes to today's lynch: Falcon is lynched: Falcon flips eliminator: Coral, Weasel, Myself, and Scorpion would all basically be cleared, from interactions with Falcon. Coral defended Falcon too openly to be on the same team, and also initially voted for Falcon before changing to Vulture. Weasel voted on Falcon on the first day, and also initially voted for Falcon before changing to Vulture. Myself and Scorpion were some of the earliest votes on Falcon that stuck. Vulture would be nominally cleared, for being the main counter-lynch against Falcon. Take this with a grain of salt though, in light of what just happened in LG46. Dingo would look notably more suspect. I believe somebody may well have made some attempt to defend the first eliminator to be lynched, and there is already reason to believe Dingo is not a refugee. Falcon flips third party: Depends a lot on what kind of third party. Fortunately, we have reason to believe the title of the faction is self-explanatory. Probably, information-wise this could be treated almost like a mislynch on a villager. Mouse and crocodile would look a bit more suspect, because both of them tried to disassociate themselves from the prevailing lynch. Bandwagonners also would look nominally more suspect. Vulture is lynched: Vulture flips eliminator: Folks who tried to lynch Vulture the past two cycles, such as Coral, Dingo, Ostritch, and Weasel, would all be pretty cleared of being eliminators. Off the top of my head, I don't know if anybody except me really defended Vulture (which btw, maybe means that there is no team backing them, people), so I guess that would make me look suspect. I would maybe look for distancing patterns, because Vulture was in the spotlight, but not too much in the spotlight, making those patterns more likely to be visible if you looked for them. Vulture flips village: I am having a hard time coming up with any new leads this particular flip would create in of itself, tbh. Although analyzing specific posts from this cycle would still be fruitful, as always, and there should be lots to go off of in the aftermath of this cycle. Vulture flips third party: I think that would take basically everybody by surprise. I don't think the game is big enough to sustain too many third party peoples though, so I guess that would be another point against Falcon. Should otherwise be treated as a lynch on a villager, because that is most likely what the elims were expecting it to be. Also, a more full explanation on sudden death. The village wins if they kill all the evils before they can meet their win con. Not specifically before they kill us all. So, Seonid might just be covering all the bases with being vague, but there's also a fair chance that he took the trouble to phrase it that way because one of the evil factions has a sudden death win condition. So yeah. 'night everybody.
Azure Mouse Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) What's still annoying me is that our friend @Emerald Falcon still hasn't replied to my theory, or any of our theories. I've said that I will put off my vote until I can get a response from him, but I hope he does respond. I think it was Ivory who pointed out how odd it was that Falcon wasn't revealing their role even though they were pretty much going to die anyway, and provided possible reasons why. This is why, while Mauve's theory on the good Kandra/bad Kandra roles seems reasonable to me, I don't think Falcon would be any one of the Kandras. If he was a good Kandra, dying would fail his mission to find the bad Kandra, and if he was the bad Kandra, dying would also fail his mission to escape. I find Ivory's theory about how Falcon wouldn't reveal his role because it would jeopardise his wincon more plausible in regards to Falcon. If he was a Kandra Hunter, people would know that to jeopardise his wincon they would need to protect the Kandra. The possibility of surviving a lynch also seems like it might have some merit, but if Falcon really did survive the lynch I'm pretty sure we would all just lynch Falcon again anyway, unless his role actually prohibits him dying from lynch. This is also why I don't think his team (if he has a team) has vote manip capabilities and he's relying on that to protect him, because if survived through suspicious vote manip we'd lynch him again. Still, I'm not going to decide whether to vote for @Emerald Falcon or not until he responds. Falcon, of your reading this, I'm going to wait five hours for your response until I vote for you as an incentive. If your reply seems satisfactory, I'll remove it. I think that's fair. Edit: Just realised the cycle ends in five hours, so me waiting that time is kind of redundant. Honestly, since Emerald doesn't seem like he's going to be revealing his role anytime soon I doubt he's going to be adding to my theory either. Emerald Falcon , you don't sound like a conventional threat, but the fact that you could be a threat makes me solidify the lynch on you, just to make extra sure you don't have a team with some crazy vote manip powers. This might look like bandwagoning, but if Emerald responds I might reconsider. Besides, even if he's not a threat, with what he's been saying so far, the way he flips is going to provide us with valuable info. Also, the main reason I'll be reconsidering my vote if Emerald responds is that by responding Emerald helps the village. The theories and questions I have for emerald (as well as the questions and theories stemming off from that) wouldn't be dangerous to him even if he answered them (and if they would still be dangerous he could tell us). But the fact that he's not even going to help the village by answering non-threatening questions to help us understand the game better, speaks that he's more on one side than the other. Again, when he responds, he'll be helping the village and I'll reconsider, but for now Emerald's got my vote. Edited July 14, 2018 by Azure Mouse
Mauve Crocodile Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 Well, the Cycle is drawing to a close, and I don’t have anything solid. Amber Vulture’s interactions with Magenta in C1 felt a bit forced. At the moment it looks like pocketing. The most information is on Falcon, but it’s not Eliminator-y information. I think that lynching a neutral gives us more time, and that will give us more information. Additionally, Falcon may not even be at risk from the lynch, if they are the Kandra. However, they very well might not be a Kandra. We know that this game started with at least one Fleeing Informant, which I would guess is a subclass of a Village role. “Fleeing” implies that they are, obviously, escaping from something, and the blackout format may mean that they probably wouldn’t know what’s hunting them. Their goal may also be to survive, maybe for a certain number of Cycles or until the game is over. Given the fact that the arrival of the Pride of Terris in inhabited space probably doesn't rely on the fact that X number of people are dead, I would say that it's a timed victory. Or maybe the narrative states that once all of one side is dead, the survivors are able to sit around for weeks until the ship arrives. I'm not sure. On 7/13/2018 at 5:10 AM, Emerald Falcon said: Yeah, I’m not a refugee There would be no reason to screw myself if I was an elim, so I just sort of figured I’d go ahead and post what I thought anyway. I definitely think there are better people to lynch then me (dingo for one). Also when I meant survive I meant eliminate the elim faction (and maybe the hemalurgic monster). So yeah! I don’t really want to share my role, and so I’m not going to. For now If I’m correct, and Fleeing Informants don’t know about their pursuers and are attempting to survive, then this fits with Falcon’s behaviour so far. A Kandra would probably keep their head low, and use its powers to escape detection. Falcon hasn’t done that. If Falcon is a Kandra and doesn’t get lynched, then they’ll most likely vanish at the end of the Cycle, and someone will be impersonated. Probably the least active person here, if Charcoal was also hit by a Kandra and the pattern holds. If Falcon doesn’t disappear, then we can be pretty sure that they aren’t a Kandra. I think that’s a risk worth taking to see what happens. Vulture looked like they were pocketing Magenta, and even though it seemed a bit too obvious, I can’t ignore the fact that they were willing to follow Magenta on a vote on Tuatara for no reason. I don’t have anything solid enough to vote on anyone decisively, but I’d rather lynch than not. Amber Vulture, I like your RP character and Denesta wouldn't vote for you, but I still suspect you. I'll also add my voice in asking for @Emerald Falcon to say something. We're all waiting for you, and silence makes things look worse.

I felt at the time that Magenta was truly a villager, and I was trying to help them. As I had made clear through the whole cycle, I felt one of our options if we couldn't find someone actually suspicious, would be to go after someone who was not as active. Tuatara fit that description. Also, most of the arguments that started the lynch on Magenta were for voting on someone without reason, the same thing that Tuatara did. I felt that if the arguments against them were the same, I'd rather go after the less active one. The other arguments presented against Magenta just didn't feel right to me. They had been targeted for an unknown reason for placing a vote on Ivory. Not the first vote, and not the last. I still don't see how others saw them as elim. I wasn't trying to pocket someone. I was trying to help someone I truly (and apparently rightly) thought was village. It was a gamble, but I wasn't going to just sit by and do nothing while I thought a teammate was going to get lynched for no good reason.
Emerald Falcon Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 silence is fun! It just builds the lynch even against me even greater! Plus not answering anyone’s questions just adds to the chaos! I’m bored. Time to speculate. (We all know how that went last time) The Elim team is probably 3 people. A scanner, a Kandra, and an assasin. The scanner to find informants, the assasin to kill them, and finally the Kandra to replace them. Since no one on that team is dead, that leaves us with 8 other people excluding me. Assuming we have some kind of neutral faction, with most likely 2 people, that leaves us with 6 people. 2 are likely those informants, assuming as before that they’re a spectate village faction, and 4 are just vanilla refugees. This is probably my last post of the game, just wanted to say this has been way fun.
Azure Mouse Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) Wait wait wait. While speculation is helpful, the main reason everyone's calling you to talk is so you can have your say on the theories about you. If you read them, none of them seem like they would affect you badly, but answering our questions would help give the village a better understanding of the game, and would prove to us that your at least not that bad, as your helping the village. So, could you please answer our questions? Like is your role reliant on another role that you don't know the alignment of? Additionally, letting people know you're helping the village by answering our questions will definitely aid you in getting tons of votes removed from you. I, for example, would remove my vote on you if you answered the questions satisfactorily. @Emerald Falcon so you don't disappear on us. ~~~~~~RP~~~~~~ V tossed the spare cadmium-mind to Bailey, pale in fear. Space was scary. A vast, empty, nothing. Kind of like the ocean, V thought. Though they'd discovered many things in the depths, much remained. For this reason, V had always been scared to go for boat rides. If it sunk, V would be completely alone, nothing but terribly large stretches of water to the sides, sky above, and, who knew what below. The scariest things were the things you couldn't see. People weren't afraid of the dark, they were afraid of what lurked in it. V hadn't been scared of the ocean, he'd been scared on what lay below the surface. The same logic could be transported to other settings. V thought on Bailey's words, and came to the conclusion he was right, but for different reasons. Sure, a murderer was easier to defeat than something non-human, something that was beyond your understanding. But it wasn't because that thing was scary, or that thing had 'sharp teeth', no. It was the mystery. Nobody knew what was hunting the ship, but people had ideas. And when you left a bunch a bunch of starved, scared, cold and alone people together and left the monster to their imagination, they replaced the parts they didn't know with things much worse. Yes, fighting the monster was not the real challenge, but understanding it was. For as long as the Pride of Terris crew didn't know what was hunting them, they would not know how to beat it. Confusion was an ally for the beast, and when men and women didn't know where, or who the monster was, they turned on each other. Like savages. Space was not scary. What lurked in its dark depths was. Something bit V's shoe, screeching a terrible, horrid sound. "Aaaaah!" V dropped his cadmium-mind, twirling around his flashlight to see a small rat scurrying off. Oh. V could be so jumpy at times. But where was his cadmium? Getting on his knees, V searched for the small disc. If he didn't find it soon, he would suffocate here, alone. He could only hold his breath for so long. As he held the flashlight in his mouth, V tried to hold his breath, keeping himself slowly dying. He just needed the cadmium. He just needed the cadmium. V reached over and felt a small disc. Holding it, V realized it was just a piece of junk metal. This was it, V couldn't - There. V sat on the floor, relieved. He made a mental note never to distract himself again, and went on his way gathering more boxes. Edited July 14, 2018 by Azure Mouse Clarity and RP 1

If we could at least get an answer, it would help. I would probably even take my vote off you if I really felt you were village. Mostly because one mislynch is better than two, and I think I may be not long for this game even if I survive this round. Too many people are still suspicious. However, if you can prove you're at least village-friendly, you save the village a valuable lynch that could instead be used to take down an actual elim. If the eliminators kill you, so be it. As has been said, you could be dead either way. Because you're not answering the questions, it makes me believe more so you're an eliminator, or at least elim-friendly. EDIT: RP, because why not? Understanding people had never been Liseran's forte. She tended to leave that up to him. This hunk of metal is where that had led her. Usually, she relied on him to talk their way out of tough spots. Liseran liked to fight her way out. But his silver tongue had betrayed her. He had promised great things, adventures across the worlds. He had given her just a taste of that life, then abandoned her on a colorless rock. She wanted to hear from his lips why before she killed him. Unconsciously, her hand rested on the holster of the gun hidden at her waistline. While it's frame was small, its bullets packed a punch. She hadn't had cause to use it lately, but had been impressed when she acquired it. Until she made it back on solid ground, she likely wouldn't use it again. It was too loud for such close confines. Besides, she had other ways of taking down threats. She just hoped she would have the chance, in order to help the other poor refugees stuck on this forsaken ship.

Mauve Crocodile Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 Alright, if Falcon isn’t willing to help the Village, then I’m going to assume that their role is entirely neutral at best. If they’re the Kandra, then that represents a pretty large threat to the Village. The primary disadvantage of the Village is a lack of information, and the confusion sown among it by hostile factions. The bodyswapping of the Kandra exaggerates that immensely, as the Village cannot trust anyone nearly as much, even with hard-clears like scans. Falcon has offered nothing to help the Village, even as the lynch approaches. They initially refused to roleclaim because it would get them killed by someone, but since they’re likely to die to the lynch regardless and they’re still not giving us anything, I’m assuming that they’re either hostile to the Village, or neutral and unhelpful. (Bolded numbers are my own). 2 hours ago, Amber Vulture said: 1. I wouldn't say I voted on Tuatara for no reason. I felt at the time that Magenta was truly a villager, and I was trying to help them. As I had made clear through the whole cycle, I felt one of our options if we couldn't find someone actually suspicious, would be to go after someone who was not as active.

I was trying to help someone I truly (and apparently rightly) thought was village. It was a gamble, but I wasn't going to just sit by and do nothing while I thought a teammate was going to get lynched for no good reason. I suppose that’s fair. I never really like lynches that aren’t justified by anything other than silence, but I suppose that others might not feel that way, especially about D1 lynches. I personally believed that the way that they were acting seemed more suspicious than not, and they hadn’t offered much to help the Village to outweigh the information value of lynching them. But again, that’s a super-subjective metric, and I understand that others may not have it like that. Reasonable. I would probably have done the same in your shoes (assuming that they aren’t Eliminator shoes, because those things would be terribly uncomfortable). Amber Vulture, despite the weirdness of their posts in C1, has proven that they’re willing to help the Village. And I’d rather not drive this game into inactivity by killing vocal people who I can examine later. Emerald Falcon is refusing to help the Village, and because of that almost certainly has a role that doesn’t help us. Not to mention that Amber has defended themselves adequately, and while I’m going to have to trust my own observations more than their defences, I think that it would be unfair to keep a vote on them given that I find their defence reasonable for the moment. I would add more to this discussion, but I'm late for something. I can expand on things if people have questions.
Melon Dingo Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 Might I suggest those claiming falcon is completely umwilling to help the village take another look at his speculation wit the info that he's non-village? We probably have to lynch him to get the most out of that info, but I suspect that's going to be a valuable final post. Lastly, can I point out that if falcon's an elim, or explicitly anti-village, there's no reason why he couldn't have just made up some answers to placate you all? The fact that he hasn't suggests that he doesn't have a team that could take over if he dies, and/or that such subterfuge would harm his win-con. I've said this before, but this is the perfect mislynch for the elims. We aren't gaining a cycle, as crocodile claimed, by lynching a non-village, we're losing a cycle by doing a lynch that'll get us almost no information on the identity of the elim team.

The main reason we were trying to get Falcon to talk was so he could answer our questions. Now, your point about him lying does have some merit, and I didn't think of what would happen if he did do what you say. But if this supposedly suggests that he doesn't have a team to take over from his death, meaning he's a loner, than why wouldn't he give the correct answers for a chance of life? To trick us one last time? Honestly, I don't know, but I don't think so. As for this being the perfect mislynch, the things is, we don't know if the elims are our only enemy. Sure, this may be using a cycle to not kill an elim, but we're using it to kill someone who's still suspicious. They might still be a threat, so, in my opinion, we should still lynch them with the same confidence as we would lynch an elim member. Though he might not flip elim, he might flip something else that would have been dangerous if we hadn't stopped it. A worthwhile lynch, in my eyes.

Seonid he/him Posted July 14, 2018 Author Posted July 14, 2018 Cycle was over a half hour ago! Sorry for the tardiness of rollover today.
Seonid he/him Posted July 14, 2018 Author Posted July 14, 2018 (edited) MR30: Cycle 3 - Failure to Fly Day—if it could truly be called day, with the persistent lighting all around the Pride of Terris—rose anew. The crew’s sleep cycles still in tune, the members groggily dragged themselves into the common area one by one, and they ate a meager breakfast of the stale emergency rations they had come to expect. With their stomachs feeling just a little emptier each day, mealtimes were welcomed, and the crew of twelve gulped down their stale bread and dried fruit in grateful silence. The first to finish, a man dressed in Emerald, rose and began to speak. “I’ve thought about things a bit, and have figured something out. I bet most of the people aboard this ship just want to survive until the end of this whole bloody mess. However, some of us are being hunted. Yes—you all saw Hyena’s corpse lying dead—there are killers stalking this ship, and we need to band together and survive until we reach the safety of Scadrial.” Bailey stood up. “How dare you presume we care only for our personal survival? I’d sacrifice my life to save anyone I thought more important than me on this ship. But moreover, I’d rather find those among us who wish us ill than to save my own skin in some cowardly, craven manner, which is clearly all you care about. And that is the mindset of a hidden murderer.” Several voices shouted agreement with Bailey’s words. The crew pressed closer to Falcon, who attempted to stave them off. “No, no, I knew this would happen! One of you, killer or innocent, wants my head, and you’ll do anything to get it!” Bailey spoke again. “If you’re actually innocent, why would you worry about the other innocents here killing you? Even if you aren’t a killer, your stance as a third party isn’t helping any of us either, and seems like a convenient excuse.” V spoke up hesitantly. “Don’t you think it’s more logical to leave Emerald alone? A third party isn’t necessarily hostile to us. He may just want to survive until the end of this.” “No,” Bailey said. “V, we have no information on anyone’s motives but our own. We must kill if we are to find them out. But first, I want more ingredients for my stew. Would anyone like to volunteer to help bring up supplies from the airless room? I’ve got these.” The double-sided coins glinted in the dim lighting, the unsealed Cadmium-minds offering air to any who went down into the storage room. V and Denesta volunteered to help, and the three walked away from the commons area. The rest remained, still hotly debating, but unwilling to take action with three of their most vocal members off on a fool’s errand. Eventually, an Ostrich spoke up. “Should we retire to our own rooms and alcoves for a while as we wait for the supplies for the stew to come up? We aren’t getting much done here, and I’d rather relax in peace than huddle together in this cramped space.” The others murmured assent, and each filed off to his own corner of the ship, some napping, others simply resting peacefully, few noticing that the three had returned from their trip to the storage room. Meanwhile, the killer among the crew smiled. There was work to be done. Bailey stood over the bubbling stew, smiling and rubbing his hands. Perhaps the others could survive on what amounted to stale haggis and thin gruel, but Bailey wouldn’t stand that for a second. A hot stew in the evening was just what the body and soul needed to recover from a stressful day. He reached for the garlic to add to the stew, and with horror realized he had forgotten it when they had ventured into the storage room. “V, Denesta!” he called. “I forgot the garlic for the stew! Do one of you mind quickly nipping down into the storage room to get it? It should only take a minute.” Denesta stood up. “I’ll do it for you, since V went down there last time. I’ll be back in just a second with the garlic. Where’s that Cadmium-mind?” Bailey flicked Denesta the coin, and she accepted it gratefully, moving towards the hatch that led to the storage room. Sliding down the rope, she disappeared into the darkness. In mere seconds, she was back up the rope, looking nauseous. Bailey frowned. “What’s wrong? Was the garlic not down there?” Denesta shook her head. “Forget the garlic. There’s a body that someone threw in there after we left it the first time, and it looks to be Ostrich’s.” Nobody enjoyed the night’s stew, despite its excellent quality even without the garlic. The specter of Ostrich’s body being found hung over the heads of the crew, a patient shadow biding its time. None of the crew dared to break the silence draped over the room, and none dared accuse another of the weighty crime of murder. Eventually, one of the voices—it little mattered who to the rest of the crew—broke the long silence. “So...even with the murder that just happened...we’re still resolved to kill Falcon for the suspicious things he said earlier, yes?” The others nodded in grim assent. Falcon attempted to resist, but several hands grabbed onto him, and dragged him towards the airlock. It was opened just a crack, the body was flung out, and it was quickly resealed. A quick murder, but a murder nonetheless, thought Bailey. But it had to be done. Denesta, who had hung back from the group dragging Falcon away, rummaged through his folder of papers he had left behind. With a gasp, she found a group of documents. They looked official, and said EYEWITNESS TESTIMONY at the top. Denesta shuddered. “Guys…” she spoke haltingly. “I...think Falcon was one of us.” --------------------------------------------------- Vote Count: Amber Vulture (3): Coral Swan, Indigo Weasel, Melon Dingo, Emerald Falcon (8): Amber Vulture, Amethyst Scorpion, Azure Mouse, Chartreuse Penguin, Fuchsia Ostrich, Ivory Dragonfly, Mauve Crocodile, Fuchsia Ostrich has been killed!

Amethyst Scorpion Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 What the storms If PMs were open, I'd suspect that there's some faction out there with the wincon to eliminate these fleeing informants, considering what the last kill's (hyena's) role was. But as it is, it could've only been a coincidence, or a lucky guess.

Based on what his last post, it sounds like Fleeing Informant may be a two-man sub-faction in the village. Which probably means there are none left. Unless the Fleeing Informant is the Kandra role. And falcon is still alive in a different account. What if Falcon on C2 was Hyena C1... We don't know how that mechanic works, and it's possible that they submit a name at the beginning of the cycle of someone they'd take over if they were to die. The original post said something to the order of roles that allow an account swap. What if their role goes with them? I need to get some sleep. I'm starting to get conspiracy theory-ish again.
Seonid he/him Posted July 14, 2018 Author Posted July 14, 2018 There was a mistake with the vote count. It is now correct.
Amber Vulture Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 If that's the case, there is definitely vote manipulation. There's one extra count on Emerald that isn't accounted for in the names. I'm not sure why they'd use it, unless it's an inherent 2-vote weight whenever they cast a vote. Emerald had a pretty good lead all cycle.
Azure Mouse Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 I would have thought that vote manip would be left out this game, considering everything else we have to deal with...but I guess not!
Amber Vulture Posted July 14, 2018 Posted July 14, 2018 Now that I think about it, having a third faction is not very likely in a game with so few players. That would make vote manipulation less unbalanced. If that were the case, and we have a 3-member elim team, we are down to 7 village members. Also, Azure, who was it that asked you how good you are at counting?

Maybe a little bit of the meta-game though. But it means nothing alone. It goes along with the series of 5 questions to have any meaning. except that the 5 was bolded, and the name of Azure's character is bolded
