For the record I dlnt have any mech pointing to you acting on me, just was what I assumed and made it seem like I was sure to make you admit it in the case you wanted to hide it haha~

What did you mean by this?

Quick at work posting-

I meant that I took a gamble making it look like I had some sort of mech knowledge that Sabrar targeted me when I didnt at all.

It was mores to force scum!sabrar to admit they targeted me in cases they did and wanted to keep shut about it (I was assuming they were Roleblocker, didnt consider them as possible Jailer)

So you didn't receive a message about your night action?

Updated plan:

- BF guards somi
- Santy guards EGW
- both cops still check JC
- I jail JC
- heury still shoots Santy
- phillip targets either heury or me but doesn't reveal choice ín advance
- JC tracks phillip for fun

I received a message saying that it failed, and I made an assumption that Sabrar was likely the cause of it, which is what prompted me to act like I knew that Sabrar acted on me

I'm okay with this I think

@phillip can you ask if you are able to motivate killing actions? Wether that is mafia factional, or a vigilante shot

Can the cops check me if I am naked, because I know I cannot track Philip if I am

EBWOP
JAILED!! stupid swipe changed the word to naked

Lol. Yes, they can check you.

Sheesh JC , put some clothes on...

Then I'm down with that. I have no problem being checked, because if one of the cops lies we'll know after I flip town.

I'm going to make a few more assumptions.

1. heury will be fully resolved either way D4. I'm trusting bessie to provide sufficient info regardless of our questions, so the only way heury will not be confirmed is if he suddenly claims to have been blocked from chat, which I don't believe to be a role in the game. Therefore for any further analysis we can assume heury is town, otherwise he becomes the automatic yeet D4.

2. There is no more redirection. Redirection is the single most powerful ability as it screws over all other targeted powers. 2 redirections given to same scum-team should not happen, and 2 redirections on opposing scum-teams is a logistical nightmare, especially with a motivator existing. Also we have not seen any evidence of a redirection so far.

3. Flavor cops always give accurate results (i.e no godfather or similar role exists). 2 cops having to work together is already a huge deal, if you introduce fake results there their worth is almost nothing.

With these assumptions above plan should be able to fully clear JC with both cops being protected. If there are any conflicting reports then yeeting the two players involved should give us the win. Trust somi over EGW but keep an open mind and don't rush things.

Just doing my contractually obligated daily check in! Putting my boxes at the door, etc.

Not gonna happen

Damn.

How I wish I were a cop right now

Seems there is no activity, which is understandable. If everyone checks in and confirms to have read and follow the updated plan we can end the day early.

I would prefer to check Phillip, but I'm not going to mess up your plan if you insist. So far from this day I've gotten a stronger town read on you Sabrar.

Sorry for the absence

Santygrass wrote: ↑Tue Feb 04, 2025 9:09 pm Sabrar , wouldnt one cop being scum render the other useless be the same as if one of the cops dies? While I do agree that the role feels towny dont think its good logic to clear them because of that. Regardless, both coordinating should be able to give us valuable info so not a priority regardless

Well no, unless town is unlucky enough to have one of the cops die N1, the cops aren't useless from the outset

Santygrass wrote: ↑Wed Feb 05, 2025 2:19 pm I do think that if there is other mafia/scum , its unlikely that they are able to kill imo, again 3 deaths per night is too much.

But that second mafia not having a factional kill or like, inheriting it if the other is gone could be a possibility in my mind.

Like, specially considering how each role of death had a part that let people keep talking (Mak's role making the corrupted by malevolence mafia be stumps, and heury kill masoning their targets. Another third kill just seems weird to fit in, and too bloodlusty or killing power heavy in a setup in where I feel wasnt intended for people to drop like flies)

Multiball with one mafia kill but also an SK or vig feels a bit convoluted to me. Then again I don't think it's worth debating setup spec much, we'll see what drops out by tomorrow.

Please use your power tonight either on heuristically_alone or myself. Don't claim today who your choice will be.
Please vote for Bop (in bold, on a new line).

@others: if you don't object to an early hammer then please start voting Bop once phillip confirms.

I'm not allowed to condone this.

I am allowed to say it would be nice to not be dangled over the spoiler thread for an extra day. I have been denied a quick, graceful exit and at this point would settle for an awkward shuffling off where some people look to the side and cough to cover the sound of the door.

"been denied" is dramatic but those spoiler tags have been mocking me

I know the feeling and fully sympathize.

@phillip can you ask if you are able to motivate killing actions? Wether that is mafia factional, or a vigilante shot

i can't motivate a mafia kill, but can motivate a vigilante

vote bop

Personally I think Sabrar's claim is more powerful than mine
