Flavour
There is a sudden whoosh as the vessel enters Temporal Space.

And then nothing... Just pitch black outside...

The center console turns on and a pre-recorded video message begins to play....


Pooky: "Well if you're seeing this message it means somebody on board has sabotaged the vessel.

Don't worry though because I've programmed an emergency override sequence into the ship so that it will find its way home.

However it's going to take a bit of time for the thrusters to recalibrate so why don't you try to see if you can maybe kill any terminators on board before you get back?"




Game RulesCompulsive Plurality Elimination Rules are in effect for the Next Two Dayphases in this PT and a different PT for the other players.[5 Day Deadline]

The player with the most votes at deadline end will be eliminated, ties will be resolved by seniority, if nobody is being voted I will eliminate whoever was last unvoted, if nobody was ever voted I will let the mafia decide privately.

Flips in this game thread will not be seen by the other PT until after timelines merge on Day Three.

We will resume playing in the Main Thread after Two Day/Night Phases. The Mafia will have a nightkill during the night in exactly one of the PTs.

These PTs will
remain Private
until the end of the game - do not quote from them into the main thread

That's disappointing to hear. I will consider this tomorrow

Wait, spewed scum in both groups? What does that mean? You mean that I was pretty much under the assumption the mission would fail?

That's vanilla ice cream reasoning.

I think you posted something under the assumption of that, which I feel like you shouldn't have believed to have happen as as I'm pretty sure you TRed most people in this group

So you think that I should have had more confidence in this group being all town.. why? I can't say it's terribly often the game is consensus solved that hard D1, and much less so when we're not playing with eliminations yet.

Like, don't get me wrong I do think everyone here has a higher than average chance of not being a terminator. It's not quite the same as saying I've total confidence. I don't really have much else to say that isn't redundant.

I'm in this weird place where I had high hopes that we would pass but also am not that surprised the mission failed. In hindsight maybe the team was approved with too little resistance

Might as well start somewhere

That’s not my point that I’m making

This feels like knowing the game would’ve continued if the other team had been selected

I don't get it.

I thought the game would continue regardless of team choice.. I'm really just not sure what you're getting at. Had the mission succeeded I'd have been fairly surprised.

I don't think plan B is referring to if the mission fails, I think it was if I wasn't selected for the mission. That makes more sense to me than your interpretation. It's not really a post that was particularly thoughtful of me so I suppose I'll just leave it at that.

So, since we’re here, my theory is one scum on team 2 - duh, 1 off, toog and probably one on team 1 - RR.

I have no idea who our saboteur is.

Not really sure where to start. What did scum want in the last phase, or what did they know that we did not.

When given the choice between sending {Aisa, CSF, Fidget}
(B TEAM 1)
or {Radical Rat, Ejjnami, Andante}
(B TEAM 2)
, the thread decided to send the former group alongside the guaranteed {NAHA, Loki, Gamma}
(A TEAM)
.

- Scum in the A-Team would obviously explain why it didn't seem to matter for a large portion of the thread which team goes through, between the disgruntled town and scum without a reason.
- Perhaps there's one scum distributed within both of the B-Teams. This would make the team selection ultimately not terribly important for scum. Unless they really wanted a particular member to go, but I kind of doubt it and if they did I can't account for it much.
- There is the intriguing possibility that the A-Team is pure and our B-Team is contaminated while the other is not. Maybe that could explain why so many people seemed to vote Team 2 despite scumreading the people in it? Dunno though, it seems a bit too exciting to be reality. I would have hoped I would have picked up on the phase mattering that much to at least one terminator.

If there is scum in the A-Team then analyzing who voted for which of the B-Teams would be.. probably at best unhelpful, and at worst easily manipulated by scum. Tricky to account for, but can be taken out of the equation more easily too. Does anyone even read my walls? I'm sorry for my lack of brevity.

...

Just out of curiosity. Looking at the votecount, Andante, and PenguinPower, and Enchant, all who weren't on Team #2, voted for Team #2 despite expressing not liking the team. But it is worth noting that Enchant said he would "vote against both teams" and Andante, well, don't get me started on that but she has her reasoning. PenguinPower I think just doesn't like the cut of my jib.

It's a lot more fun if this information matters... although in all reality I'm probably just overanalyzing mainly town and scum alike just wanting to proceed the game further. Individual reads are probably a safer bet but not really a bet something I'm well enough researched for yet.

I have an extremely difficult time believing team 1 is pure especially since my most confident scumread voted team

So maybe we figure this out by having everyone give reads, not just on team 2 but on the rest of the playerlist.

I think there’s at least one scum off either team: toog

Penguin is town offwagon. Not really sure about anyone else but Fire could be town since he sr toog. Enchant no idea? Don’t remember who else didn’t get picked.

On team 1, I think Andante’s probably town. Have some possible worries about ejji depending on who’s scum in team 2 but think RR most likely.

On team 2, I know I’m town and think CSF and NAHA are as well and beyond that not sure. NAHA suspects Gamma and he suspects you and Aisa could be town but no idea. So that’s where I’m at.

So
@Pooky. do we have to lim two players - even if we get lucky and lim the terminator first?

because NAHA’s right. I seriously doubt we have more than one scum in this pt.

there will be two days played in this PT.

your post cap applies to each day - so you can post a max of 150 times in Day One[now] and 150 times in Day Two.

You must eliminate one player during Day One and another player during Day Two.
