So how long until night falls and the thread is locked? Do we have to wait til the end of the deadline or is it just at mod discretion?

The Mob has locked in their answers. Nine blue screens behind them. No takebacks now. And Medea, with only a tinge of trepidation, looks to Sagat as she hits the button to illuminate ‘C’ on the center screen. “Let’s see if my hazy memories of high school science classes came through for me here!”


Sagat smiles as the ‘C’ box turns white. “You’re right! Now let’s see how many mob members you knocked out with this one.” The studio holds its breath as the screens hold steady. But then! A lone red screen flashes near the bottom. A Mob member has been eliminated. It would seem that amino acids aren’t so square as to number sixteen…


The eliminated Mob member’s screen fades to black, and with her elimination, it’s now 1 vs. 8. “You’re that much closer to the one million dollar prize! But onward to the next question, right?


Sagat clears his throat as the main screen shows that next question. “Here you go: How many levels are there in the traditional OSI network troubleshooting model? Is it: A) 5, B) 7, or C) 9?” Medea furrows her brow as the screen fades to black. Commercial break!

As the game show scene fades back in, there are eight Mob members. And eight blue screens. All eyes are now on Medea.


“Lucky number seven, here we go! Gotta make sure those network cables are plugged in first, eh?” She pushes the button with a bit more confidence, then looks to Sagat.


Sagat exclaims, “Correct!” and the ‘B’ box lightens. “Now, are you going to remain stuck at eight, or maybe seven will be your lucky number here…”


Blue screens abound. Until one lights up, red and wrong, wrong, wrong. “I could have sworn I pressed ‘B’,” the hapless contestant proclaims. But it’s no use; he is eliminated.


“1 vs. 7, let’s see what’s next! The new question: The Wade Ceramics Ltd. company has made Whimsies series of figurines based on which of these themes? A) Sports, B) Worldwide Flags, or C) American Heritage? Get those answers locked in, people!”

On the one hand, I'm glad we didn't lose any power roles, but on the other I feel bad that both my first and last suspects were town lol

Chronologically, since Johnny took Micc's spot

@Any more experienced players here, is it worth trying to sort out who would have killed Johnny? I had a scan and couldn't find anything which would make me go, "they killed Johnny".

NK analysis is more WIFOM than you really need to read the game but it's information nevertheless. Assume scum priority is hunting PR.

So somebody trying to out a Power Role would actually be worth focusing on? Not just somebody who say, didn't like Johnny>

First, I would analyze if Johnny indicated anything that he might be PR. If none can be found, assume scum found nothing and killed Johnny based on PoE-control strategy.

I will do my own analysis later on.

JV has already been discussed a lot, but here are some early posts that stand out.



JV's tone is interesting. They emphasize that they are making reads rather than talking about the people they are reading.

Then there's this post:

Sometimes I don't post and just read the thread for a small while in a tactical way. For example, if I feel like I am tunneling someone too hard I step back and just watch for a while to see what happens without my intervention etc. More reasons too but that's the way I feel is the best explanation.
I also do it as scum
so it's not anything to read me on
JV drops this subtle "I'm town" instead of just saying "I play this way as both town and scum."

And JV has placed an odd amount of emphasis on this being the normal way they play.

I'm not sure how much we can read from the night kill, but I think James may be on to something with JV-Dum being a pair, and James was spared.

You say I didnt say that I do it as both alignments when I clearly did.

The interesting part is how you phrased it.

Oh that's what you meant.

You expect me, if I were Town, to not actively think I am town and post accordingly? If you're saying I am hinting at being Town because I am scum, answer why I would not say that as Town.

Also I have small suspicion on HEM from the NK, and then instantly posting to back their own ass up since the top town didn't die.

I personally think this is because I'm honestly not much of a threat, considering how badly my push on Jackson went.
