oh
big oh

it ain't me or i'd throw in the towel but i guess that makes things interesting

I would like to dedicate this town stomp to Hoopla. She may be the only factor stopping a perfect town win, but she definitely made the carnage possible.

chilling with hoopla in the dead PT would not be that bad then i can say sorry for N1'ing her in that one game way back

lol this game

Can’t wait to vote petapan

that one game? you mean open 794?
pls say hi from me if that's how it goes

My investigation was SS. He is the roleblocker.
Damn I thought itd be more spicy than this

Who still hasn't claimed? Icon obviously, who else?

no as i was not a player in this game on night 1

i mean open 427, the other game where a solo scum won after bussing their partners

i regret to inform you the mafia is not me but the remaining claims are probably going to be enough to sew things up anyway

datisi/grumpy cat, who are town by numbers

anyway this should be obvious but if you guys do yeet me (likely the objectively correct mechanical play), do not do it before all the claim stuff is settled. you seem like good smart people so this should be obvious but i want to stress that so there are no accidents

Peta doesn't feel like scum right now but that's probably not going to stop me from voting him.

like i said i'd throw in the towel as scum but i agree you shouldn't go off script

remaining claims will be important in laying out the roadmap to victory

on a surface level clover seems he should actually be the correct answer but who knows

Now that I'm at my computer I can elaborate a bit on why I picked roleblocker, because I'm sure people are curious.

First. In looking at previous games, roleblocker seemed to be the most common scum role. This isn't really a surprise, as they get the double whammy of having a strong role and knowing there isn't a doc. So immediately, if I'm looking to deny scum PR's, this is the slot I want.

Second. Let's assume for a second that scum did go for a roleblocker and didn't get it. They are, naturally, going to assume that there is a doctor. This is going to lead them to make kills that a doctor wouldn't protect-- Hoopla being a good example of this. Strong player, sure, but not very high up in the draft and not super obvtown or anything. And even if they don't try for roleblocker and fail, it's a pretty safe bet for them that there is in fact a doctor, which means that part of the power of the doctor is just in scum THINKING there's a doctor, whether or not there actually is.

Third. Roleblocker is not a weak role for town! Especially in a setup like this, where scum are not multitasking, and it's easy to spot the players who are unlikely to be PR's. If we figure that probably a vanilla will be making most of the kills, and I target a player who's likely vanilla, then I have pretty decent odds of stopping the kill even before two scum are dead, and of course once two scum are dead it is a stronger role than cop.

peta like absolutely should be elimmed or unambiguously cleared before endgame, but on the balance of probabilities basically everyone can be eliminated or cleared before endgame

pedit: you're currently literally better than an alignment cop.

contrary to popular belief, things aren't happening. this is quite possibly the lowest content 25+ page game i've been in.

it's been largely pointless waffling, people jostling for allies, and empty threats that don't carry the risk of execution.

lets actually put someone to L-1 and see what happens.

marquis will do.

lol damn what a post


up to page 32, the game is a very weird one because it was mostly a bunch of town talking to each other and scum doing nothing and i'm not sure how much can be gleaned off of all this

i really liked that post hahah

Im vt

Took thé backup thing

Assuming this is what Datisi is talking about.

sorta. since there wasn't a kill, i was thinking there was a doc with a save...

has s_s claimed his targets yet?

i'm big brain assuming he targeted peta last night but where did the kill go? scum wouldn't purposefully no kill to put us back into odds right?
