VOTE: Scorpious

[implosion]

i'm not sure if i thought there'd been a third vote already or if i forgot that no one died tbh but at least i got post 1000.

[Noraa]

someone hammer

[ItalianoVD]

Come on Scorpious. So is the honors.

[ItalianoVD]

*Do

[ItalianoVD]

*Do us the honors.

[Scorpious]

So my summary of thoughts before bed.
Italiano will jump on anything and as I said before, no original content .. most likely bored vt
Can’t figure it out, but 90% Nora is a muse.. but not scum
Implosion comes off as scummiest to me, not even knowing where we are at in voting, then just dropping in saying “let’s not talk, let’s just vote for the second time, and I’m gonna marinate on this hammer.. just hard to believe that’s a genuine mistake by them..

Forget me reading Titus. If Titus is scum we’re screwed, that’s the bottom line

[Noraa]

muse fishing now i see

[implosion]

can someone please hammer. they're openly claiming scum here.

Albrecht Dürer,

Tuft of Cowslips

(1526)

This

was what he needed.

As the Artist wandered beyond the walls of his house, exploring well-tread paths and new delights alike, he took it in. The vibrant cerulean sky, and the sizzling azure of the birdbaths. The shy laguna dappling a caterpillar, and bold ochre striping a tabby cat’s fur. The smooth carmine of the apples in the tree, and the playful salmon glinting off a dragonfly.

The blues, the yellows, the reds. He saw it - he saw

all

of it! The colors spoke their sweet songs in hues aplenty, tones swaying in the breeze. This was it. This was what his Muses were trying to show him.

The Artist rushed home. He was ready to paint.

Scorpious, aligned with

Mafia

, has been eliminated.

Congratulations town! But...

The

Painter’s Blocks

have one last chance to undo all the creativity you’ve blossomed these past days. We will have one final night, which will end in 2 days or once all 3 of them confirm their guess for who the

Muses

are, and what their colors are. If they guess successfully, they will win.

Night 4, and the last gasp for the fate of the Artist's creative potential, begins now!

GG peeps

yeah we went a little too hard near the end I think xD genuinely would've gone for it if we weren't a muse too I think Nancy is the scum finding queen and all credit to the solve goes to her - don't care what she says she pulled most of the solve and the work for it.

[numberQ]

Excuse my technical difficulties if anyone saw me post my placeholder game end. Seems like the placeholder flavor text is still there too, but oh well. It wasn't much more than that anyway.

Thanks for playing everyone! Really interesting setup to watch. butterflies was a solving powerhouse, but it was fun knowing town still had to be careful with outing the muses even after the solve.

[Enchant]

Ha, so furtive was close

[Umlaut]

Sorry about being kind of useless while I was in the game. I got massively overcommitted IRL and probably should have quit sooner instead of trying to stick it out.

Woot! I’m absolutely floored that they thought we’d actually vote out a fellow muse.

So they got 2 muses correct but only 1 correct block.

[Enchant]

That's what i would do as Muse tbh

[Enchant]

Or i would claim in first five seconds.

Depends.

But you really helped so much. Your were an awesome hydra partner, I’d rate you 12/5 on Yelp.

[implosion]

wp nancy/flea. I feel like you two being kind-of-obviously-a-muse gave us a lot of room to cover ourselves.

I have lots of thoughts and I think this setup is maybe really good, actually. Who were the VTs that scum knew were VTs? I'm a bit surprised to see Dunn as a guess, I figured fireisredsir and Noraa were gonna be the ones relatively likely to be misplaced as muses.

[implosion]

(and also you two solving the whole setup helps :p)

I think that playing as a muse is really interesting - my early play was like, objectively scummy, i was a little bit terrified to out anything important. I was thinking "shit i'm playing like i'm scum here". But the soft masonry is really interesting - there's a lot you can do just by listening to the other muses. And I imagine playing as a VT is interesting too because it's also kind of about figuring out when to say things and when not to.

Incredibly I was also backwards on which of the other muses corresponded to which scum (I imagined butterflies were muse to Umlaut who successfully read Enchant/furtive and then used those reads to justify why Umlaut would have to be scum).

This is the list the Mafia were given at the start.
