Oh, storm it, Devotary was village.

I have some ideas about this kind of game, although they aren't very fleshed out at all and are just random vague ideas that I think would be fun. I was thinking about a mechanic where everyone starts off with a certain amount of silver, which acts as a one-use shield against a Shade attack, and instead of an elim kill, each elim has the ability to steal one unit of silver from a villager. Either dead players gain the Shade role (which restricts them from posting in thread or finding out living players' alignments, etc) and are given the ability to attack any player they choose (unless blood is drawn or someone runs at night, which causes a few random Shades to be drawn toward the person) and thus burn away a unit of silver or Players don't actually behave as Shades, but the number of Shades increases in proportion to the number of dead players or The number of Shades is randomly generated some other way and they act as NPC's (for lack of a better term) I would make it so there's a limited number of players with a kill. Their kill overrides any protection from Silver, but they are guaranteed to draw blood when they kill unless they have a one-use item (poison, a garrote, something like that) that lets them kill without drawing blood. I really like the idea of having interconnected networks of Shade attacks. I'm also intrigued by the idea of placing a restriction on changing votes too many times. I like that. I would definitely have some sort of Bounty Hunter role that gains silver if the person they vote on is lynched and has at least 1 silver. Anyways yeah here's my weird idea dump

. . . First of all, Devotary is probably going to be lynched anyway. Regardless of whether I voted on them. Secondly, there's 6 remaining players and 2 elims down. By the 20% rule, there may have been 3 or 4 elims total by the start of the game. So there are, at most, 2 remaining. If we lynch a villager today, it'll bring it to 3-2 and I'm assuming the night kill will bring it down to 2-2, which will cause LyLo. A mislynch will put us in a very risky near-losing situation, but it won't make us lose.

I find Devotary to be suspicious right now, and Fifth is probably suspicious if Devotary flips village.

@Ventyl, why is it poke voting if you express suspicion of me?

Whoops. I should keep better track of who I roleclaim to. XD Darn it, I meant Sart. *facepalm* It was mostly your tone. I felt like you were pushing for me to vote Sart, even though that was already what I was going to do. ... I was clearly not braining when I wrote that post. Sorry.

I still believe that Devotary is likely to be Aman's teammate, mostly because of Devotary's support for Aman's lynch in our PM and Aman's failure to write up an analysis of Devotary explaining why Aman voted on them. And yes, I have roleclaimed to Aman the same role that I claimed to Devotary and Fifth, which I will now claim in thread. I'm a Thug. @Fifth Scholar: I was wrong about Aman. You, of all people, should know that being wrong about someone's alignment is a thing that can happen. I trusted his claim as the SK because earlier in the game, he tried to discourage me from voting on Fura by claiming that the Kandra likely had a Jester-type role - which he later claimed for himself as Kandra.

Tanky ZomBoi shuffled towards... the nameless combat medic? and tried to push his stick out of his way. He was still working on his coordination, so instead of grabbing Nameless Combat Medic's head in pursuit of brrraaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnsssssssssssssssssssssss, Tanky ZomBoi grabbed ahold of the combat medic's arm and started voraciously chewing on it. nomNomnoMnOmNoMnOmNOMnomBRAINSSSSSSSSSSnoMnOmNoMnOmn0mn0mNOM

Tanky ZomBoi tore open his traveling pack in search of braaaaaaiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnsssssssssssssssssssssssssss. However, instead of tasty delicious human flesh, he just found... a stash of granola bars. Frustrated, he threw the bars all around the human campsite. Alright, Tanky ZomBoi thought. I guess I gotta actually kill people now. He stood up, moaned, and began shuffling toward the first human he could think of. "BRAINS!"

BRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think we should spend too long on building a structure, since we're supposed to be moving each night. I would focus on making reusable tools and supplies instead.

"Tanky Boi is strong! Tanky Boi does not need to worry about having enough to eat. Tanky Boi will gather wood to make a fire and keep watch to make sure everyone is safe."

Sure.

I noticed! Although, 2 of the times I was mentioned (and yes, I went through each one XD) were including Lum as part of another word that had nothing to do with me. So that puts Maill in the lead.

Oh, I did not see that! That is very game-changing. But I assume that the Kandra does not automatically win if the elims die and it survives. Is that correct?

Rath. If we kill the elims first, then the kandra won't have a chance to become the last player standing. In this game, unlike LG55, if the elims die and the SK remains, the village wins.

I don't think Aman is the SK. Him and Devotary are elims. I think so because in our PM, Devotary seemed to subtly be rooting for Sart to be lynched. If Aman is elim, Fifth might be as well... although if that were the case, Fifth probably wouldn't have included Aman in so many of his PM's. But basically they had a disagreement at first and might have made it look like distancing, when they really they agreed, and made it look very long and very genuine when it was just elims trying to distance. I find that rather unlikely though, as I think that Aman was pocketing both myself and Fifth.

I'm going to vote for Sart. Aman has privately claimed to me early in the game, which I think is more village than straight up claiming in thread mid-game. Also, I don't remember much content and analysis that Sart has been providing this game - mostly, it's been RP with short conclusions. This could be a sign of an elim trying to lay low and go unnoticed. It is of note that there are indeed vanilla roles in this game, which makes duplicate roles much less likely to exist. So, if Aman is indeed a village Lurcher, that'll make Sart less likely to be a Lurcher, let alone a village one. Aman could be lying, but at this point in the game, Aman's claim seems more trustworthy to me. I'll also note that if Aman is elim, Fifth very likely is as well.

It's not uncommon for Xino to play like that. He doesn't do it in every game, but in some games. I'm not sure whether it has any connection to his alignment.

"Tanky Boi has many many more pocketfuls of ammunition! This is only the beginning!"

"EAT THIS!!" Tanky boi displays his fistful of ammunition threateningly, a grin plastered onto his round face as always.

Tanky Boi reaches into one of his pockets and pulls out a generous handful of ammunition, passing it around to the people shooting. (Yes. I agree that we should shoot the zombies. Is that what I am supposed to say? XD)

@Amanuensis, so your reads are completely NAI or Village (just by skimming through this), and yet you still voted on Devotary. That's interesting.

"Look. There's trees here, which means plenty of sticks!" Tanky Boi announced. "How about we try to build some kinda fort around us? Or if not, then we can all fight back!"

"Don't worry, my friends, Tanky Boi is here by your side!" With a big grin and bulky arms spread out, Tanky Boi walked up to the man... Friedrich? That was his name? "Friedrich! You, my friend, look like you can use someone to protect you! Any of them zombies that dare approach you... well they gotta deal with me first!" ( @Fifth Scholar )
