Seeing as you missed my vote,

Vote: Wam

[Freddino18]

Request Extension (short)

[madge]

Vote post edited. If anyone else wants an extension in the future please PM me and Sabrar, to prevent angleshooting.

Fred, no need to PM, but please do if you change your mind.

[Seven]

Im not sure, I’ve never watched it. Role just says The Doctor

Flavor suggests he has a wife

Having watched the series, if you have a character image in your role PM, would you mind comparing with the pictures here? https://www.cbr.com/doctor-who-every-doctor-explained/

(The numbered doctors are the ones who had a TV series around them, most of the ones that aren't numbered were revealed retroactively)

i don’t see one that matches

[Wam]

Busy day.
I buy theas theory that they did the roles and did the alignments completely independently despite the weirdness.

vote santy

E-1

[Santygrass]

Just let me solve

ETA on this?

Going to be probably tonight , yesterday I just fell asleep after work

[Theallieza]

There's a reason I singled out Fredd.

Mak only started looking super townie on the Bessie flip. Seven was such an obvious protect target in this setup that I doubt scum would consider it. I WAS a nightkill. Night 1. You're also an obvious protect target.

But Fredd, Fredd has been disengaged. There's absolutely no reason for scum to think they couldn't sneak a kill in.

But why shoot at a player with weak powers who is disengaged? Over a cop? Or a doc? Or a JoaT that can do both? I'm sure they could have taken a shot at one of us if they had wanted to, but why?

Because they're clear. It makes more sense than rolling the dice on a random PR.

I started to write a long post about how objectively bad this is from a scum strategic point of view, but you are so deep in your tunnel I don't see the point in arguing with you anymore.

Vote: Thea

[Seven]

Thea I think it’s pretty absurd that you don’t seemingly grasp the concept of avoiding doc protects.

[Theallieza]

Thea I think it’s pretty absurd that you don’t seemingly grasp the concept of avoiding doc protects.

I understand it very well. It's just not the only, or even the most important, consideration.

I don't think killing Fred and clearing me is a good strategic choice. It's also not a particularly relevant one unless you think that we are also Mafia since even if we were some sort of indies or otherscum, Mafia would have just as much knowledge about that as Town does.

One scum like, almost never endgames if you are both alive and town, because its impossible for one of you to vote the other. In most worlds, scum HAS to get rid of you

[Santygrass]

Specially after getting a greencheck from Wam haha. Thats why I said scum nks make no sense, there are like the opposite from optimal and makes me think that they either have a sort of conditional nk, the deaths have been coming from an indy / godfather separated from.the scumteam that didnt knew who their partners are and has been shooting at who they thought were for sure town or something like that

[Santygrass]

Like, sorry thea but its super silly thinking that JC could be a good elim if I was scum because they were correct on a read. Like, they were a super PoE slot with potential to be misyeeted and had like, no threadpull at all to be a threat even if they had the best reads in the game .

Im at a point in where seeing objectively the game I think the kills have been suboptimal, and it doesnt matter who I think would be the scum. I could always see better targets

[Seven]

@Wam how do you reconcile the fact that Santy was tracked N2 and wasn’t seen visiting JC? It seems like from your perspective, Adum would have the best chance of being a hit.

[AdumbroDeus]

Thea I think it’s pretty absurd that you don’t seemingly grasp the concept of avoiding doc protects.

This is exactly the sort of thing I was talking about last day phase. The only difference I observed between Thea's scum play and his town play is as scum I've seen him have this subtle obtuseness which I haven't seen as town. I think things like this really only make sense as dishonesty from a player of his skill.

Vote: Thea

Maybe you could ask the mods which Doc you're supposed to be then?

Exactly. The JC kill specifically really stands out as nonsensical. Bessie just has such a powerful role (when she has a useful sanity) that clearing her from the board without knowing toMorrow's sanity makes sense, especially if they agreed with Seven's NAR analysis and thought they could stop her results from last night, even if a fair number of people had her as a POE.

I do think people were moving to JC town, but he definitely didn't have thread pull to be a serious threat.

[AdumbroDeus]

Btw, I am interested in who people think the NKs are coming from.

[Freddino18]

Thea is asking me to vote for Santy at the cost of guaranteeing that one of us dies tomorrow. I am mostly opposed to this (except for the fact that it would be funny), but I'd like Adum and Seven to weigh in

[madge]

Madge is perfect!

...Votals...

...Santy... 3 ··· Thea. Mak. Wam.
...Wam... 1 ··· Fred.
...Thea.... 2 ··· Seven....... Adum.

[Freddino18]

A convincing argument has been made. Tally-ho, Lads!

Vote: Santy

If I die it's Wam

[madge]

That is hammer. Santy has been voted off.

It is now Dusk.

Flip and flavour will come in a few hours.

The crowd had scarcely stopped murmuring in horror at the plastic-wrapped DeLorean and its hapless occupant when two young men jumped on top of it.

“Strange things are afoot at the time traveller’s party,” Bill said. Ted nodded sage agreement.

“Right on, dude. You people aren’t being excellent to each other!”

They pulled out their guitars and started playing some sick 80s riffs.

“Anyway, that’s it! We’re not getting involved with this non-non-heinous activity! Let’s go back to Rufus, the clock at San Dimas is still ticking and I don’t think Steven Hawkings will help us with our history paper after all!”

“Yeah, uh, party on, dudes?” Bill agreed, and they both jumped off the plastic-wrapped DeLorean.

A small noise could be heard from within the car: the doctor was holding up a hand-written note to the window, it said “THEY HAVE HAVE MY FLUX CAPACITOR!”

This prompted more concerned murmurs from the crowd.

“Hey dude?” Bill said.

“Yeah?”

“Where’d we put the phone booth?”

“It was right in this corner…” Ted said, gesturing to a corner that had indeed previously had a phone booth in it. Given the presence of no fewer than eight blue police boxes occupying the same area, the phone booth hadn’t taken on too much notice. And now it was gone.

“Bummer, dude.”

“No, no, let’s decide to come back here and now when we get it back! Then we can get out of here!"

“Oh yeah, good idea! So it should be appearing any moment now…”

Sadly, the phone box didn’t appear.

The two young men started playing their guitars again, this time with quiet anger that made it clear they weren’t interested in the “party” (or the time war) any longer.

Santygrass has been voted out. He was Bill & Ted, odd Bodyguard / even Loud Doctor, aligned with Town.

It is now Night 4. Day 5 will start at noon China time on Saturday, which is 5am in Berlin and 8pm (Sunday) in Seattle, which is in just under 3 days. See clock: https://www.tickcounter.com/countdown/6198854/d5-starts

Indicative deadline for end of Day 5 is here: https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/ ... T18&p1=196 - please let me know via PM during the night if you want it rescheduled (note: rescheduling it by less than ~24 hours is not possible, it will likely always fall at similarly inconvenient times due to my timezone).
