Raskolnikov died to poison.

"I am the very model of a scientist salarian, I've studied species turian, asari, and batarian.

I'm quite good at genetics (as a subset of biology) because I am an expert (which I know is a tautology).

Raskolnikov, you are Mordin Solus.

:scholar:

Mordin Solus is a salarian geneticist, professor, and a former operative of the Special Tasks Group, where he performed reconnaissance and participated in the modification of the genophage. In 2185, he is recruited by Commander Shepard to assist in a high-risk mission against the Collectors. Mordin has a moral character best described as consequentialist, believing the ends justify the means, though he dislikes taking life without good cause. His actions are often guided by an impersonal logic, refusing to let his conscience, personal, and emotional connections cloud his judgment of what he believes is truly best in the big picture. Though he is affable, quick-talking and friendly, Mordin bears physical scars of his time in the STG and is still handling the consequences of his past.

You are the Town Odd-Night Poisoner.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

1. Every odd night, starting Night 1, you may target a player and attempt to poison them. A poisoned player will be announced as such at the beginning of the next Day, and will die at the end of that Day. For example, if you successfully poison someone night 1, they will be announced as poisoned at the start of day 2, and die at the end of day 2 (unless they are healed).

2. Additionally, you have a one-shot heal that you can use to heal a poisoned player before the end of day. This is a day ability, and you must PM me at least one hour before the end of the Day phase to use it. If successful, the poisoned player will immediately be announced as healed and not die at the end of the day. You may only do this once.

You win when the mafia are eliminated.

ok that changes how i look at the world slightly

replace numbers with the following

v
v-ish
eggsecute

My gut feeling is

manasi doesnt yolo vote dyachei while somewhat lurking, esp when dya would likely Hitler Gets Bussed in that situation

Exciting!!!!!!!!!

My first thoughts upon seeing the dya flip is that it probably won't be quite as informative as I was hoping, due to dya generally being under suspicion from the get-go, but... hey, we take those red flips, still very hype!!!!!

Some basic thoughts from dya's ISO:

Liked Esooa from it, felt like her interactions with them were quite genuine in general!!! An example of which is them pushing on the point where dya forgot about the stuff they were nodding to with my posts that seemed fairly solid, as well as dya's general response to them... noting that dya was under a lot of pressure and aware that they were likely to flip sooner than later, though!!

Good interactions stuff from Hally and Ephemeral that I feel fairly comfortable about, don't sense a need to elaborate!!!!

I do not think the Visor/dya interactions from day 1 are clearing; they are okay but still not something I'd confidently say are not w/w!!!!! dya not realizing Colonel was Bop isn't clearing either, for that matter, though I still think he's towny!!

Still strongly dislike the GH/dya w/w thread that was pushed from SoD 2, with half the game agreeing; don't know why people thought GH would openwolf to that extent!!!

I think your numbers system is a fun and colourful way to never clear any villagers and constantly have the entire game opened up to your PoE.

But at least you're open about it.

Yeah, that's pretty much where I'm at; would have preferred poison but, oh well!!

Having read nothing, I was so hoping to get my free v-read and coast.
Now it looks like I have to put some work in.

Also, Colonel Lubriderm, you have no idea how disconcerting it is to see you take that avatar and have me think that GH was dead posting.

OK, anyone want to give me cliffs?

you shouldnt clear me for dya not knowing who i was the same way you shouldnt clear manti for posting that dya AtE photoshop

i wish vig sheeped my legacy of dont kill gh

What are you talking about?

I forget; is there an easy way to ISO on the org, or no?

Vote Visor

Will be around in a bit, would like to discuss why people think he's towny!!!!! Is it mainly stuff from day 1? Both day 1 plus day 2? What in particular?

Where do you want to go today, Visor? Where's your head at?

ara did you think i was the poisoner yesterday? jw

Not going to lie, that is the single best part of GH dying!!!!! :p

Hi Logic!!! Cliffs are that day 1 had Dya/Amy/Csargo (who subbed out for Rask later) at very high suspicon, dya/Amy for reasons of being underwhelming!! Day 2, the dya elimination was a bit of a given for most of the day, had a fairly meaningless EoD!!!

Unrelated, forgot formatting:

Vote: Visor

we cleaned up v/v/w wagons and v gh was killed for being tied to w dya

is literally all that has happened

pretty boring game so far, all things considered

Are you implying you don't know about the GH godread of me, every single game?
This is Manti, right?

I'm going to be very confused in either case.

OK, if you are manti, you acting like you don't know about the GH godread is really [redacted] odd.

If you are not manti, it's a mighty strange coincidence that you are using one of his aliases and a related avatar.

Narrator:
They weren't

Eph and Hally are my clears at the moment.

I think esooa looks good on spew, but there is a specific line where I can see it be faked.

I gave my manasi read earlier, and I'm going to be okay with it for now.

Ara came to more or less the same conclusions as me last night, apparently, so I'm going to call her good for the moment.

Everyone else is broken into one of three groups: voted for dya; voted for cargo; voted off wagon.

I don't really have strong preferences inside those lower groups, and will likely spend the day deciding who we should kill.

manasi can def bus so wouldnt put it past her but i think her play is kinda just not paying attention

I think if she votes dya there, dya pings her 5 times in wolf chat and yells at her until she changes her vote.

I haven't really wolfed with manasi, but my feeling is that she'd pay more attention to wolf chat than thread in this activity level, i'd think just cause its discord.

Thats more or less the basis of the read atm.

That does seem her play regardless of alignment (but slightly more likely as town, iirc)

fuck it take my energy.

especially if it leads yo to voting me

this isnt sarcastic tilt. im a-ok dying if everyone promises to follow my legacy this time

I'd put visor as better than a coinflip v but not real strong feelings; visor's best connection was w/ amy and the dya stuff was a lot weaker. There were positive but fakable posts, more or less.

I was thinking of claiming masons with visor for the lolz this morning but instead posted a meme

im trading eph for ara on my list

I have a slightly less selfish take of "I'm a-ok dying regardless of whether people listen to my (probably garbage) reads."

Actually, it would have been better to pretend not to have a read on manasi and pressure her to hopefully get some play out of her slot, but you know how it be

Off a glance, Dya seems obsessed with talking to Maple and Hally.

Gut says she's trying to pocket one or both.

Dya is somewhat legally obligated to talk to and/or about us somewhat at length, based on meta things.

Dya was definitely not bothering trying to pocket me, calling me a wolf lol

I policy lynch them for calling me w

the only person i actively want to kill on csargo d1 is montecorenot

outside of that i could see ara/manti being wolves but i dont have aan active desire to go there before people on rask(dolby/cuth)

looking forward to your takes @Logic
@Arapocalypse

https://i.imgur.com/Zjwo4.gif

Anyway

those are my feelings for now

hf yall

you're going to have to explain how i am a busser

when sunbae and i (and hally a bit too iirc) were the ones really pushing dya, and then sunbae stopped and i kept doing it instead of backing off once given an out

and then i kill sunbae who is village reading dya (i guess this is a really wifom argument but still)

you need to say

a) why i would play it this way
b) how it is more wolfy than other people making actual wrong votes

if montenot is a wolf then i might lay off cuth. im concerned cuth was villa reading dya. I'm concerned cuth was, what i feel like, lying about my intent of my posts to fit his narrative.

However i dont think the same way cuth does and it might be a miscommunication. He wasnted to go montecorenot and if that ends up being a wolf the world where he was a villa wrong on dya increases alot.

the more interesting question is why sunbae and pzelda died

both widely village read i guess?

Vote: Cuth

hmm i wonder if they scanned him n1

i couild see that actually

@Montmorency

if you dont step up you are likely dead pal

the think that irked me the most about cuth other than the dya defense was how he characterized me saying to giver her a chance to do her thing was me defending them. it was an attempt at me trying to get people not to badger them so it doesnt turn into an AtE where we have to decide is dya annoyed as a villa or a wolf(which it did)

i guess i could see how it could be interpretted that way. still hate having my thoughts misrepresented.

my plan was the initial one i suggested at the end of day which was poison dya, kill somewhere else , evaluate but then i reread the thread
