Doctor Willenloss and his splendid invention, or... [Concluded]

[Montmorency]

Either way, if everyone thus far has been truthful with at least their names, then there's a 50% chance that Igor will die. My gut says that, of my sons, Igor is more likely to go nuts or whatever.

Immanuel: The Prodigal Hunchback

Can't he kill Ironside or something?

[robbiecon]

I would be willing to kill on your behalf father, if you can save me from this fate today.

[robbiecon]

Unvote

Vote: DaveShack

[Askthepizzaguy]

Actually, Dave was in the lead.



So you were the SK! I knew your limp and drool were all affectation.

In my last major Operator role, I wielded an SK to my ends. Perhaps we could spare this one and use him to strike against the scum at night?

Perhaps my son could even be redeemed.

As much as you may wish it, SK are anti town and in a lose-lose situation where they will be killed by the town, will work against town.

SK gotta die, Monty. They don't get redeemed, didn't Andres teach you that?

[Montmorency]

As much as you may wish it, SK are anti town and in a lose-lose situation where they will be killed by the town, will work against town.

But they can be useful.

The one whose body I appropriated as a weapon of the town did turn on me upon realizing that he was the only obstacle to official victory. When he did it, I anticipated and crushed him like the bug he was.

If he kills Ironside, he gets a few days. If he doesn't, he gets lynched. Why not?

[Askthepizzaguy]

He could kill an additional townie instead. You don't win chess games by playing moves assuming your opponent will play moves that are also in your favor.


Simply put, you're being a dreamer in a situation where pragmatism rules and is the rule.

[Montmorency]

That SK killed a couple of the scum.

IIRC, you spent that game proselytizing the end-times for Town.

But you are set. Fine. Six lynches ought to be enough for two scum at this stage, even if you happen to be one of them.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You're right about one thing, there's no need when we have the time and the lynches and the suspects narrowed down.

The risk you're thinking about taking is unnecessary. The people town decides should die will be slain by town. Allowing a SK to "maybe" do us a solid, maybe if we were in a bind. I don't see us in a bind.

Kill Scum A, removes murder 1.

Lynch Scum B, removes a scum from team B. Much better than lynch town A and allow SK to kill town B.

[robbiecon]

Lynch scum B, he uses time machine to rewind the day yet again ;)

[Montmorency]

I'm afraid it's not that simple.

[Diana Abnoba]

And if you truly had the time machine power you would already know that robbiecon, unless if you really are Igor, then you plan to let the mafia have use of it. Either way that post sealed my vote to you to stay.

[robbiecon]

Oh, I can use the time machine. I can also use the coffee machine, if anyone is interested.

[Ishmael]

unvote, vote: robbiecon. I'm sorry Monty, but I cannot see that the (small) benefits of working with a SK outweigh the risk they pose as a wild card.

Also, confirming that I will scan Chaotix tonight.

[Diana Abnoba]

Good then can you get me a cup before you die.

[Thermal]

Maybe someone could double up on Chaotix? I imagine he'd be able to dodge a singular scan, especially since he was so reluctant to reveal his role. Just the feel I'm getting anyway.

I just think it'd be better to get a few results that we can trust rather than lots of clouded ones.


Not changing my vote for now, in order to make SK victory a real possibility robbiecon would probably have some insane time machine abilities or something, I'd say scan before trying to lynch him should we end up regretting it later. His premature role confession is suspect.

[Montmorency]

That's the idea. For now, this should be set. We have time to go through others later.

The key to a strong network is to always be expanding the roster of cleared names.

Referring to Chaotix specifically, he is supposed to be in a doctor chain with Arjos. Two actions should be enough to pinpoint.

[Thermal]

Well I was questioning the usefulness of blocking him tonight, but if you can establish a cause-and-effect chain as a result of his none action then that should work out well then.

Although, amongst those you've assigned, some of them will probably disobey, since not everyone is telling the complete truth of course. Which gives all the more reason for concentrations on night actions on a select few I'd say.

[Chaotix]

Your doctor chain is not going to work. In both of our role PMs: there are some circumstances in which it may not work.

An unbreakable doctor chain is too overpowered for a game like this. One or both of us will fail the protect, even if we try to do it. I'd bet 1 million Vietnamese dongs on it.

As for robbiecon - is he claiming to be the killer from both Night 1 and rewinded Night 2? Both of those kills involved choking from behind, so I had assumed it was the same guy. In which case... I don't know, Igor is supposed to be handsome then?

It makes no sense for him to claim SK and be lying about it, but something just seems off about this whole thing.

Vote: robbiecon

[Montmorency]

Oh no, that was changed. I'm having him scanned.

I wanted to see how it would go. I suppose there is a better arrangement, however. You think you can only protect women? Protect Adele.

@Arjos: Tell me whom you've protected.
@Ishmael: Whom have you scanned so far?

As for robbiecon - is he claiming to be the killer from both Night 1 and rewinded Night 2?

He didn't claim such a thing. Only I can rewind.

Igor is, well - damaged.

THESE ARE THE FINAL ORDERS FOR TONIGHT:

DaveShack: Claim. Include name.
Askthepizzaguy: Protect me.
DianaAbnoba: Scan Ironside
edse : Track Daveshack.
@Ishmael: Scan Chaotix
Chaotix: Protect ATPG
@Arjos: Protect Chaotix
@BSmith: Watch Daveshack.
@NinjaCow64: Block Ironside.
Brickfaced: Stay put.

Edse: Whom did you track N1?

[robbiecon]

Here you go Diana :p (Apologies about the drool)

[Arjos]

Vote: robbiecon

So far I've protected BSmith and Diana in that order...

[NinjaCow64]

I will block that Iron man tonight professor! *salute*

[Askthepizzaguy]

Why do I get to be protected by the guy I was certain was scum 24 hours ago?

Why do I get to have all the "fun".

Regardless, my role is to die in service of protecting Willenloss anyway; it seems odd to protect me in the first place. My role is essentially to die.

Should I be roleblocked, the Doctor is vulnerable.

I would request that Chaotix at least be given the option to protect either myself or Monty tonight, of his own judgment. I'd feel a lot better about this if the open vulnerabilities weren't so exploitable by a mafia team that simply needs to block certain roles and kill with impudence.

At least a bad move in blindfold chess might win; here, our mistakes are being made known clear as day.

[Montmorency]

There are two claimed blockers. One of them claims a severely restricted one-time use. One claims a free block. If there's a lying player who is a blocker besides one of these, we'll wink him out soon enough with the Sherlock duo.

If I die, I can still direct stuff. My secondary power is only useful for saving my own butt, and the primary probably won't recharge before the game ends.

My survival is not imperative in this circumstance.

[NinjaCow64]

Rereading my role PM, I noticed that next to the word roleblocker in brackets are the words "Night Watch". I think a dead person had this next to their name as well. That might be useful or could just be pure flavouring. I dunno.

[edse]

Edse: Whom did you track N1?

I can only use it three times so I decided to not track anyone night 1.

[Ishmael]

@Ishmael: Whom have you scanned so far?

I scanned Ninjacow N1 (roleblocker), and Montmorency N2 (unclear).

[Askthepizzaguy]

Unclear?

I guess he's not a traditional role.

[Jarema]

I may not be around when day ends. But it ends according to the schedule.
If you know what you want to do, you may send night orders in advance

[Askthepizzaguy]

This. If you're having trouble, say, forgetting to vote in certain games, please send in orders now.

Otherwise I show you no leg. Conquer these worthless scums, we must.
