What sentence do you think your VT role is based on?

huh second VT, i think any other vanilla town should claim right?

also i thought about something, maybe like, the roles we have got assigned
before
the alignements? that would make sense with nic's information

so if i'm right speculating if a role is scummy or not wouldn't actually make sense

These are the only two votes.

Which leaves this as what I have:

mastina, TheGoldenParadox
Akarin (1):
DoubtingThomas
not voting (1):
Gypyx
In hindsight, I should've asked the mod if we could get a deadline extension on account of a holiday, earlier, so that I would have time for him to have answered.

Unfortunately, I didn't even realize there was a holiday until like...today or yesterday or so, so the thought of asking slipped my mind. (Whooooops.)

At this point, though, because I am going to bed now and won't be up until tomorrow afternoon, like six hours after the day's deadline.

I have to do this.

VOTE: DoubtingThomas.

I really really was hoping someone would come on and change their vote. Gypyx, Akarin, one of the two could've swung it onto SKYEscrapers here.
Unfortunately.
I can't rely on them hammering after I go to bed (I don't know when they'll be awake) and I can't rely on schadd_ giving an extension when there's no guarantee he would.

So I well and truly am sorry, DT. :(
We just...don't have the time and having an elimination > not having an elimination.

Before I go to bed tho and before the thread is locked.
In post 1063, SKYEscrapers wrote:ok, so a 1-shot alien has been scum before. and? why can't it be town?
It can, it's just that between it having been a scum role in a game schadd_ conceived literally simultaneously to this one and your role being a soft-cc to my own with your role looking like it was built to stop my role, your role being scum looks more likely.
In post 1064, Dunnstral wrote:VOTE: DoubtingThomas
I just want to say that I really fucking hate this vote, it's absolutely disgusting from Dunnstral and I really really REALLY fucking HATE that I am hammering the wagon that this scumfuck put forward as the only viable lynch today.

He's just scum.
In post 1066, DoubtingThomas wrote:y'all are so bad y'all would never be able to solve me if i were a wolf lmao.
I am more and more sure you are town, DT. I really really hate being the hammer vote, it's just. We needed another vote on SKYEscrapers, we needed more time, we needed
something
, and we didn't get it. I'll try to make it up to you tomorrow if I live through the night. <3
In post 1068, DoubtingThomas wrote:at least one of dunn-akarin is a wolf. if one or both of you are town, seriously reconsider your play this game. horrendous
Akarin is hard-town here; Dunn is hard-scum.
In post 1079, Gypyx wrote:huh second VT, i think any other vanilla town should claim right?
Well everyone aside from TGP has either roleclaimed (Dunn, DT, SKYE) or softclaimed (you, me, Akarin), so tomorrow we should be massclaiming anyway. (And if, as I suspect, it's lylo, treat any hard-guilties/innocents with the appropriate grains of salt deserved for xylo situations, and be cautious with the voting.)
In post 1079, Gypyx wrote:also i thought about something, maybe like, the roles we have got assigned

Possible, but I doubt it. Doesn't really fit the theme of MBOS games as I know them.

And with that, going to bed.

To reiterate:
If I am not alive tomorrow.
You power-fucking-lynch SKYEscrapers and Dunnstral; you do NOT eliminate Gypyx, Akarin, or TheGoldenParadox out of paranoia.

SKYE and Dunnstral are your scumteam.

Okay I lied, not bed quite yet.
I feel the need to reiterate the SKYE-Dunnstral interactions.
To wit.
SKYE lists Dunn as null here.
Dunnstral-SKYE interactions here reek of scum-scum.
Dunnstral has SKYE as town.
SKYE was unusually interested in Dunnstral here.
While SKYE states a preference for Dunnstral and briefly votes him, their very next post is unvoting him, and pushing a counterwagon to him.
They've had mutual townreads on each other the whole game, and neither one has really explained why.

Between the two of them they've done everything possible to derail wagons on each other, supporting counterwagons (this doesn't show up in iso very well, I need to actually point to areas of the game with wagon sizes to demonstrate this but I'm too tired and lack time right now), and basically just.

Are very, very, stupidly obviously.

Just the scumteam that makes the most sense.

I wish I could write a better case than this, this is incredibly rushed and lackluster and I realize it's poorly timed but it's better now than never if I die because if I'm nightkilled I won't have the ability to present a more eloquent sufifcently advianced version tomorrow. I would rather post an incomplete half-done case that needs to be fleshed out than die having not presented it at all but I just. Really feel they fit as the scumteam better than any other combo possible,

Butyeah am very very rapidly losing my coherence here cognitive is in the decline and while I want to do better than this, it's the only thing I can do right now, need to just do better tomorrow if I kive so see you then if the scum don't nightkill me.

(Soyeah bed now.
Sorry, will try to do more if I live, realize I haven't done enough in hindsight, realyze in twilight that it's not the time to have efforted and made cases, that it should've been done earlier whe nwe had the time when it'd matter but I just...didn't actually think about it until now, didn't have the passion/fire within, I'm usually quite passive and struggle to be proactive, been passive whole game reacting to people and bouncing off of them but I realize that if I wanted to push EDunn-Skye harder that being reactive/passive wasn't enough and that I needed to be proactive but I didn't think about that until tonow so that's too little too late but I promise I will try to be more proactive tomorrow if scum don't kill me because I need to be in order for us to win this game because I'm pretty sure DT's flipping town now, DT didn;t do the survival thing and was actively antagonizing their own allies (DT fingered me when I am one of DT's only defenders, not something scum heading to the gallows would probably do), will try to make it up to y'all then.

@SKYE:

Coinflip between Mastina and Dunn

(provisional in case thread gets locked, lets talk this out)

I think you should aim for scum, and probably different targets depending on if DT flips town, but this is the best placeholder in case of thread lock.

Mastina, if it makes you feel better I'd have been very reluctant to change my vote anyway even if you'd been online at the same time as me. (Should have said I'd be back before deadline, was just really exhausted when I went to bed last night.)

I don't really buy there being 2 VTs in the setup unless they're flavored VTs and DT didn't indicate any flavor.

I think the setup would have had some attempt to balance it, the way I interpret Nic's role is that Schadd designed a couple setups and rolled dice to decide which one to use.

In post 1, schadd_ wrote:the nine roles in this game each took inspiration from one of the following sentences which were provided to me by list moderator Isis:
Larger radars usually are used for longer range, while radars designed for detailed imaging of objects may be smaller.
NicCage
My cats' eye colors were virtually the same at birth, but diverged during their adolescence and became the best way to tell them apart.
MathBlade
Once in Washington Square Park in NYC, I came across a man making music with empty containers, and I really liked it.
Five lefts make a left.
It seems inherently impossible to decide the appropriate amount of time to wait at midnight to assume that a traffic light is stuck on red and it is okay to ignore it.
Dandelions are exciting because you can see their reproductive strategy so clearly.
There should have been more than one season of Firefly.
Drink lots of water every chance you get.
Playing piano by memory and by reading sheet music are satisfying each in different ways.
My guesses.

Mine should be obvious with my flip.

ok.

and, yeah about the vt thing. that makes a lot of sense. i was surprised when math flipped vt because i was thinking that everyone had something since it was based on the sentences, but it makes more sense if there's only one.

I've been thinking that our role might be based on "There should have been more than one season of Firefly." though that doesn't really fit because there's no aliens in firefly. i haven't been able to figure it out otherwise.

But actually I can kind of see the 1-shot thing making sense, esp. if there's no other 1-shot roles. Maybe Schadd was just thinking SF=Aliens and
was
doing that.

1-shot = 1 season
