Salty runback time.

I need to start doing some pregame prep work.

Jjh, can you guarantee we can have some time before you start the game proper to strategize?

Non-Consecutive Activated Counterattacker: During the night, you may choose to go on alert. Any killing actions targeting you that night or in the following day will fail, and you will kill anyone attempting to target you with a killing action. You may not use this ability if you used it in the previous night.

Doombringer: Once during the game, during twilight (the time between when a player has cast the final vote to eliminate a player and the time when the flip is announced), you may PM the mod to activate your ability to allow for a second elimination to occur during the day. The day will resume after the flip with either the same deadline or 3 days, whichever is greater. However, the mafia will be invited to make a prediction as to who the consensus elimination will be. If they guess correctly, they will be able to redirect this elimination as per a Governor ability. This will be made public knowledge. If you are eliminated by vote before this ability can be used, it will be used automatically.

As Jibril, you are an Informed Game Participant.

Informed: You are informed that what would normally be a dead thread is an isekai thread in which players compete in games to win abilities with which they might be able to influence the main thread.

Game Participant: You will be informed of and may anonymously participate in games taking place in the isekai thread. You will lose your ability to participate in games after the first mafia member is killed.

Your mafia buddies are Dunnstral and Marcistar, and you will find the PT here.

You have a factional nightkill as normal and can use this in addition to any other abilities. You are also informed that you may instruct LadyLambdaDelta to carry out the factional nightkill on a given target instead of any mafia members.

You win when the mafia controls at least 50% of the vote during the day phase.

Meta:

No Game No Life is a good anime, but I'm glad it didn't get a second season. Honestly, the first half of the season was good but there's a noticeable drop in quality in the second half. The characters just kinda aren't much beyond their capabilities, so while the premise is fun and there are definitely some well done bits with the games at the beginning, I reckon this is an overrated anime. Jibril as a character slots nicely into this game, as it makes sense that she'd be informed given her obsession with knowledge, and this means that even without anyone dying the baddies (read: you) can be baddies in the isekai too.

Is it implied that lld is a killing role or is it possible she is just a beacon we can use our night kill through (and she would know it potentially)

She's going to be on the lookout for people acting weird about her

Dead image is dead.

Also, like, yeah, the anime went way overboard with the creepy shit. Not that the novels were like, SUPER tame but they were certainly better than whatever the fuck the anime was running with.

Character wise who are you two?

@JJH


1. When I am able to participate in the games... is this via a mod-provided alt? PM? Some other means?

2. How exactly would marcistar's ability activation look as far as what gets posted in the thread? Specifically, what does this:
In post 4, marcistar wrote:This will be made public knowledge.
imply? "The mafia has picked a target and if they're right they get to pick a lim?" or?

3. How does Dunn's ability look to a watcher or tracker if activated?

4. Is the "use LLD" option gated behind a number of shots, or "as long as she's alive"? Or something else.

Notice that my role also says it works on the following day

Could be being thorough, could imply killing actions during the day. Maybe related to the games?

Confirmed Town
Dunnstral
Cabd
marcistar



Mislim Targets
Toogeloo - Low content poster, has some experience with the players in this list. Not a bad player by any means, but tends to get left behind in hyperposting meta, which is something we ABSOLUTELY want to keep up with and in fact encourage here.

ssbm_Kyouko - Similar to Toog, but a little more willing to spam with the flow.

DrippingGoofball - Reminder to use "it" pronouns! It is on a slump recently and so motivation is touch and go. If we can make it feels isolated as far as not being believed rolewise or intent-wise, it often spirals itself into an elim. I doubt it keeps up with hyperposting, either.

WhemeStar - Clearly third party, snortle. But yeah wheme is not an easy elim when he tryhard towns, but his towngame isn't something that is easily recognized in a lot of noise... which is absolutely what we're going to be creating here.

ManateeGal - Manatee Lass is on a MASSIVE improvement streak so paranoia is the angle we can play up here.

GuyInFreezer - Returning to mafia after a long hiatus. Sometimes tends to be misunderstood, but also petty good at towning it up. We'll try to prevent that but if he DOES town it up and connect with ffery, he slides to the nightkill pool instead.



Nightkill Targets
unwnd - Unwnd is a mega tilter but I think his mental in this player list is strong enough that if we give him the "right" high priority targets to suspect and go after, he'll ignore us. He tends to try to go for the big fish before the small fish these days..... the two of you can worry about being small fish for him and I'll keep him off of my own back. If he DOES megatilt, then he could possibly be limmable.

Lady Lambdadelta - Priority to remove from the game. In fact, in some ways, I want to suicide her onto Dunn night one if at all possible. Depends on how Dunn wants to play his claim though.

Kate Bishop (hydra of notscience and fferyllt) - ffery will either love me, hate me, or waffle on me indefinitely. The best strategy when facing her is to make it up as you go. She's trying to read you based upon a model of your play from past behavior. Just straight up ignore your normal playbook and go based on feels, and you too can TENETMEGAKILL. I doubt the cobra kai side of notsci will be out to play.

Lukewarm - Has a bunch of meta on marci, and is rapidly growing to have experiential meta on the rest of the player list. Is still prone to overconfidence, and if he goes down the wrong path, we can encourage the shit out of him and let him do some of our dirty work pushing for us.

Does this mean we'd use our nightkill to target me to indirectly kill her?

The BIGGEST factor that will contribute to our victory here is posting often.

We want there to be a mountain of bullshit to wade through jsut to catch up.

Play "in the moment".


If you're ever unsure about a post or path forward, run it by your team.

1. This will depend on the nature of the game(s).

2. Following the flip for the previous elim, I will announce the deadline for the second elim and with it state that the mafia are invited to guess who the elim will be and that if they correctly guess they will be able to redirect the elim.

3. Dunn will appear to target anyone who targets him with a killing ability.

4. The 'use lld' option is until stated otherwise

I find that we have no ninja, or strongman, or informational roles of any type, so we're gonna be flying blind. Spotting EVERY little crumb attempt and reporting it here is going to be vital to getting info and working up fake claims.
