They brought this upon themselves.

You win when the Demons control the majority vote, or when nothing can prevent this from happening.

VC 3.0

Not Voting (6): Dumb and Dumber, redtea, BananaCucho, catboi, Starbuck, Jackel98

Deadline is in (expired on 2020-08-22 18:00:00)

With 6 players alive, it takes 4 to eliminate

[BananaCucho]

Damnit. Goodbye Norwee. You will be missed.

[BananaCucho]

So I haven't reread things with Porkens flip in mind because I still thought I was gonna die

So I'll try to do that tonight

[BananaCucho]

Also with just 1 death Norwee might have been right about us not having a 3p. Cause Bell and Porkens could have both targeted SS night 1

[catboi]

Yes, I re-thought the death after the flip - likely explanation is S_S got 1 corruption from using his ability, targeted porkens, and got 1 corruption from somewhere else. Just really bad luck there.

[catboi]

Also I have no idea who the last scum is

[BananaCucho]

Giving mafia a possible 2 kpn (basically if they dole out the corruption together) plus 3p is impossible

There's likely just 1 scummy left

[redtea]

Didnt get to say: I didn't say it was

likely

lol.

I got one corruption!
And fucking Norwee is dead??
...interesting choice

[BananaCucho]

If there's no 3p Norwees death makes sense as scum is gonna try to use corruption to take someone down

[catboi]

ｍ（＿　＿；；ｍ Yeah, I realize that now, but I couldn't help but tinfoil it b/c my imagination was too limited and didn't see how s_s could've picked up 3 corruption in 1 night.

Σ(`‐ｪ‐´) It would be

weird

if it was just jackel, 3 VTs, even in a theme game seems...too low. But then...I dunno where else to look.

okay so last scum hands out a point, and that probably caused the s_s kill, that clears that up

[BananaCucho]

We could also be living in a world where mafia has 4 players and today is LYLO

[BananaCucho]

If anyone else got corruption please claim it thanks

[BananaCucho]

I want to review DD today. They were on the Porkens train at the end but basically pushed Starbuck relentlessly over Porkens for as long as I remember

[BananaCucho]

Even though I want to review DD, I don't think pre-Bell death that scum team is likely to bus tbh. At least not hard. We did see Bell try to pull up at last moment off of Porkens

Because tbh if the team is Bell+Porkens+catboi/DD, they are sitting so pretty with 2+ roles that can dole out corruption. Bussing not even required

[BananaCucho]

BTW WIFOM says that Redtea

could

be the last scum here, decided not to dole out corruption and then claim it for himself

I need to review his interactions with both Bell and Porkens

[BananaCucho]

Their* interactions, sorry

[BananaCucho]

The question I have is first: why Redtea? Why not throw corruption at myself or Starbuck? Raising me or Starbuck to 2 corruption is efficient, they can then give one of us a 3rd corruption the next night in addition to the night kill

Possible explanations:

Starbuck is scum, and is banking on 3P talk today getting me eliminated and so they went for the cleric CC hoping to kill them slowly

Redtea is scum and lying - this seems most obvious tbh from the action perspective alone

DD is scum and has a trait like Porkens where if they are visited, they give out corruption

[BananaCucho]

6 alive. Eliminate 1, kill 1 at night. 4 alive MLYLO, we cant sleep if they dole out the corruption to Starbuck or myself cause then they kill 2 and win

Yeah doesn't make sense to me

[BananaCucho]

Red’s post are the worse in the game so far; exclusively showing a scum pov, being almost too self-aware, apologetic, not inquisitive by answering for the person hes asking/talking to. He sounds like a monologue and NEE “What’s a joke?” Is more towny to me than red’s 3 last wall. It says a lot

I have to wall! I've been such a slowpoke

More seriously:
Joey's very recent hardass posts #340 and #343 have me reading him as town. That and the fact that after people pointed out he wasn't posting well, he really stepped up his game and has been going strong. The fact he both changed and kept it up is very town to me. I feel like maf are more prone to having a surge of posts before falling back again, or will pick a fight to have something easy to respond to without really hunting. This might be a big reason others are tr'ing him now, and I agree.

Also

I maf-lean Norwegian and possibly banana (I have a couple things to go back to) and I don't think Norwegian would implicate two scum partners in #264 in his town reads so. Any ill-feelings I had towards Joey before don't really have room here.
Not to mention the likelihood of grouping together any three players and having

one

of them flip maf. So take this as me teasing the idea of Norwe/banana, though either/or is more realistic.

Oh, and I just remembered I have a WILD idea. I know how this sounds. Trust me, I know, I knew immediately how it would sound. But what if bananacucho needs corruption for, not voting, but for wincon/to unlock a special ability. Because he can't vote, then he must gain corruption a different way, as we know. So, should we be more wary of a possible corruption-giver giving corruption (town or maf role)?
No, because it wouldn't really be a big deal given what the mod's said.

But

maybe something will be different Day 2 and we should look out for it.

lol in retrospect this comes off as TMI, just like Porkens when Bell flipped and they were like "see I knew they wanted more corruption"

[redtea]

sorry banana, I'll read what you're on about in a bit when I'm not tryin ta listen and read at the same time. Wanted to get this out though

2/3(?) maf claimed PRs. Is it likely the last would be a VT claim? Y'all think it likely they

all

claimed a special role? Though I thinkk it's a little more likely in a themed game..?
I don't think anyone else alive beside banana, Starbuck, and I claimed PR? From what I can find.
Starbuck's was considered strange though. I'll have to double-check who pointed it out.

Was worried Norwe or me would be killed.
What's weird imo is that I was given corruption, which implies I'm not gonna be NK'd tonight.
Which is even weirder, and I'll come back to that.

[redtea]

Mm. To be honest my habit of speculating wildly rarely hits close to home. Wouldn't have even thought to go back to that post.

Another thing weird to me is how Starbuck didn't negotiate with us to avoid acquiring unnecessary corruption. Inherently, that hurts town, for reasons you described banana.
Wish I or someone said something about that at the time.
No one can take credit now.
