Gotta sleep but I did get through the game
My vanillaizing is negative utility so I didn't use it.
Also a reminder that elusive probably gladiated me and farside, because the other claimed roles were confirmable and it makes no sense for farside to do this (peace is dayvig, persivul got not-SK as FBI agent without knowing the existence of a vanillaizer, I think)
Reads: peacebringer strong town, farside lean town, persivul weakest town read, elusive scum
I feel confident about elusive-scum.
If I'm lynched and farside is also town, I recommend farside shoot elusive tonight.
Will post on my computer later.
Oh and also I'm guessing farside has been making nightly kills regardless of alignment.
Gladiating only makes sense from elusive, but my read on elusive is based on play.
Farside we should discuss a lot before you vote me or whatever happens today
Unless all outside the gladiated vote together, then day will go on

I am essentially a VT right now. I was a 1-shot gladiator. I could target two people at night to be lynched the next day, provided neither one dies.
Problem is, I targeted Tazaro and Guille Night 1 hoping to get Tazaro dead D2 lol, because gut feeling
Hammering Tazaro was worth it, especially evident in twilight, and I have no regrets.

Never mind I forgot RC replaced errant.
Okay so I agree with Bert about elusive being scum and lied about his ability. He's the only one that makes sense to do this with who is left.
Obviously scum put me up because I'm immune to being shot.
Bert is a claimed vanillizer so probably fear of being targetted.
This fucking sucks.

Don't have much time right now but FWIW:
- Since RC was killed and was mafia kill immune, that seems to indicate we have a SK or other third party left. Is there anything like a town-aligned night vig or other town role that can explain that kill?
- If there's a SK, then unless there was only one scum to begin with, it may be that town has already lost, and we're just playing along to see if SK or mafia win

I agree, I think I've been trusting farside because she agrees with me but I realized that she kind of pushed Soren after I found him suspicious and kind of pushed my pushes so I don't know how to make sense of that. I have no strong read on Bert and I doubt he and farside could be aligned at this point so he's probably more town lean.
PB was my strongest town read. It's possible he made one of the kills but I thought he was only a day vig?

LOL, that's actually how you and Bert seem so maybe Bert or you are the Gladiate and partners and this is all some ploy to get town credit? Idk.
I feel like just because Persivul and I are thinking or talking doesn't mean we're hooking up
PB also should come in and speak.

ah I thought you were going along the same thoughts as pervisul for the NK talk.
The only reason I was thinking you were lying was your claim was the most questionable to Soren.
Yeah I don't have a killing power so I have no clue where you are coming from.
I like the idea of no lynch, I think scum put this gladiate up because of mine and Bert's claims.
Why would you think scum would put themselves up? That's just beyond bad thinking.

Yeah, if Farside and I were a team, then We would gladiate two other players outside the team - which would be effective in forcing a no-lynch or a mislynch (assuming no-lynch is possible) in 2 vs. 3.
My understanding is this, in a nutshell:
If PeaceBringer is already confirmed to be a dayvig (the Jeanne shot), he can't also have a gladiating ability.
If Persivul is actually an FBI Agent, he can't have gladiated. He claimed FBI Agent that got not-SK on Errantparabola BEFORE Errantparabola claimed SK ability, right? (someone correct me if I'm wrong)
I'm assuming one ability card and thus one ability, as there is no dayvig gladiator or gladiator FBI Agent in this setup.
So that narrows the gladiator down to Farside or Elusive, and Farside putting herself at risk like this doesn't make any sense.
Someone is lying about not being a gladiator, as evidenced by the mass claim. Nobody is owning up to having gladiated. Thus the gladiator is almost certainly scum. I'm actually not sure if solo scum (or one scum on a team) can execute a factional kill AND gladiate in the same night. I guess it depends on the moderator or the setup.
That is my logic.
VOTE: No Lynch
If two out of Persivul, Elusive, PB are on the same team, this game is over. If all three are scum (as this game could have started out 6v7), then it's over. Well, if Farside is scum and two out of (Persivul, Elusive, PB) are scum (not all on the same team), it's about which scum wins unless scum cross kill. If all three were on the same team, this game would be over. So it's either <town:scum> 2v1v2, 3v2, 3v1v1, 2v3 or or (best case scenario) 4v1.
Also @farside: I kind of assumed that since your ability card said 2-shot immune SK, that you were essentially a vigilante if town. From what you're saying, I guess you're just 2-shot BP without any other abilities.
Oh, and lastly:
scum gladiator shooting himself/herself in the foot by gladiating a teammate or himself/herself is really ill-advised because there were three kills N1 (and no one has claimed a role with a night killing ability). That, added onto two kills N2. N1 should have been enough hint to not try a gambit like that.

tl;dr scum self-gladiating is just an ugly ugly situation
Also I will look to see if there's a role like a JOAT where, Persivul could have daycopped my slot and then tracked me. That is actually pretty far-fetched, so probably not worthwhile, as now I'm grasping at straws to see who can be the gladiator and who can't be.
ever since the day started, I feel like I'm way too focused on getting the gladiator since he/she is the only KNOWN scum to be alive, as evidenced by no one owning up to the gladiate....all despite there being the possibility of more than just one scum (who happens to be dirty dirty gladiator)
and yes I have played with PB before twice in past games, but that was two years ago. And I think once in a past game (again a good while back) when he was an alt (SKOT).
he's kinda stubborn here about reads, doesn't seem too worried about what people think (lack of evidence/explanation beyond the surface for reads even though he seems to believe in those reads, plus reads aren't really with the flow that much - like the ones about farside/elusive/et al yesterday). not really capitalizing on easy targets. and checked out a bit after using up the vig shot, which makes sense even if it looks scummy on the outside for it.

One player?
Personally I assumed everyone read that it's between you and bert today and were already discussing in that context.
I have little experience with gladiator battles but I thought they had to come down to a death.
Mod: is no lynch an acceptable outcome today?
Not that I think that's the best choice right now, but we should know all our options.

it looks like two factions because two kills and no massclaimed roles of having a night-killing ability. NL isn't that terrible if scum try to cross kill.
I don't know why it's being thrown around that there's likely an SK rather than Werewolf, Mafia, etc., but regardless, whichever scum who might be BP or immune to kills or whatever, gotta hope he/she/they shoot the unaligned scum. I still want Elusive shot (gladiator IMO based on POE), but in certain scenarios I doubt scum will cooperate unless their life depends on getting rid of nonaligned scum. Killing off town right now for them might be desirable, although it's still possible tomorrow becomes deciding which scum faction wins (assuming more than one faction) if the game isn't over by then.
