Spectating the greatest event of the year!

I haven't been keeping up with the game, but I am surprised Faddy hasn't been voted out yet.

I called out his inconsistency on the Day1 vote, I remember someone agreeing with me and he's still alive 4 days after that? And he isn't just alive, he never came close to being voted off?

:surprised:

Faddy said he targeted Terra night one and Blarg night 2 an both claim getting their shots refunded the night Faddy targeted them.

"Oh yeah Faddy is totally a x shot cop guys"

Also Aeleus was not a infinite shot Lighting rod.

:alpha:

He was one shot. That was a fucking typo by me not saying one shot.

Or at least I thought we agreed on one shot. The spreadsheet too doesn't say one shot.

What the fuck I 100% remember us agreeing to a 1 shot LR. Why the fuck is everything for it infinite? How did I forget that shit?

My role PM definitely said 1-shot lightning rod

The first knight of the round table, you were one of the most loyal to your king, so much so that you were put in charge of returning the holy sword Excalibur to its original place after Artoria died. While still being a knight loyal to your king, you are ultimately a servant and will serve your master like you did your king.

You are Sir Bedivere and you are a 1-shot Lightning Rod.

You are a: Servant. Your class is: Saber.
Your master is: Zippedpinhead.
Your team is:The Einzberns.

You are trying to get this greater holy grail war back on track dammit! (that is Town)

Once, during the night you can use the command Airgetlám! All night actions will happen to you during the night!

There are some contradictions here that you wouldn't know without the full picture (Scum gets it now, because they have all the required information) but others that are still hard to parse when you're involved. Possible to though.

One drawback from the day is that scum have almost completely organized a master/servant list while town hasn't even gotten started.

Yeah, but scum can safely speculate in scum chat, meanwhile doing that out in the open feels like asking to get modkilled lol Like if you say "I think Player A and Player B are paired" and extrapolate from that eventually you're going to confirm (through lack of listing) who your partner is.

AH That's where my confusion lies.

I'm super fucking tempted to go fix that PM in the flip now because of this. That was a fucking mistake on our part for getting it from the google doc instead of the edited version.

And the same time it probably proves someone was a liar... so probably should just clarify it at the end >>

If that person is scum then I definitely think you should come clean now, definitely a good reason to do it, honesty is always the best policy

Okayyyyyyy so I'm putting it in a spoiler post so don't read this until you want to know the truth about what happened night 1. I'm doing this now, because I really just want to talk about it lol. I'll probably link this post in the main thread at the end of the game as well, so peeps can yell at me if they hate what happened.

This is our community night action priority list LOL. This is what Vere and I use to decide what powers get priority because it's the order every game runner is supposed to use to keep games consistant.

As you can see the LR is under Redirect, meaning the powers listed above it can interfere in it's ability. For example if say Z-Beat had targeted Aeleus the LR wouldn't have gone off, because LR can be roleblocked.

The priority list works that powers can interfere with powers below them, but powers below something can't interfere with the actions above it. So a Rb can't RB a commuter or Copier for example, but they can RB an inspector or killer.

LR can be RB'd, but only if they are directly targeted. Or at least that is the belief I have held about them since i became a game runner, and it's what modchat agreed on when we discussed it. I believe Review chat also came to the same conclusion but Monkey and Flush can say otherwise if that's not the case.

Anyways the reason why in our opinion an LR can only be RB'd if they are directly targeted is because:

1. The RB shot would have already gone through before the LR activated because the RB has higher priority. The same thing happens with Copiers. They have the highest priority so they'd go through as would a commuter. If Z-Beat had jailed someone other than Aeleus that night then the person targeted would have been Jailed and the LR would ahve gone through affecting all other powers. Same with if a commuter or Copier had used their power.

2. If say the RB/Jailor shots doesn't get used up before the LR activates, then this becomes a paradox. If the RB is targeting someone else, but the LR forces them to target the LR, then the LR gets RB'd instead, which then means that the LR doesn't work, so the RB targets their intended target after all and the LR goes off and then the RB is force... and so on and so on.

In my personal opinion the only way the LR could affect a jailor, generic RB, or even a copier is if it has higher priority because that's how the priority order works. But if the LR has higher Priority than all those powers, then it can't be RB'd ever and that makes thepower even more OP. So yeah this is why we went with this decision.

TLDR: The LR doesn't affect powers above it because they are used before the LR activates.

More spoilers from what I've heard through the ol' grapevine:
I think you are absolutely correct in believing a RB can only stop a LR when the RB directly targets the person using said LR. I don't think you're in any way wrong on that one. The one bit that I think makes it tricky is iirc from what I was told second hand - the player with the RB has a secondary ability attached to it, and THAT ability in and of itself would typically be slotted as miscellaneous. That's where it got weird here. Generally speaking though, yes a RB should not be redirected onto a LR and stop said LR.

yeah I could see that being the case. For me with the jailer the rb would have rbed the intended target but the protection part should have been sent to Aeleus since it comes after the LR

however
that secondary power is a copy power lol that doesn’t get redirected either.

Then yeah, not even any weirdness imo. I think I had heard it was a:
Thief ability which would have been misc. My bad

it’s a thief ability yeah. Just the variant the copies some powers.

some powers can’t be stolen because they are items that aren’t stealable (EC’s tracking power was finely tuned martial arts skills which you can’t steal). If a power can be stolen it has a chance of being rb’d (tho day powers and passives can’t be rb’d) and certain powers can be copied (flavored as the thief using the item they stole).

basically if the thief steals from someone an item they get told what the item is and it’s a hint of what their power/flavor is.

if the item is a power they copied then they get told what the item is and that they have to use it before the end of the next day phase (if a day power) or the end of the next night phase (night power).

they aren’t told what the power is but some can give hints towards it such as being told they need to say want they want to send to the targeted player being a hint of it being a message power.

so say if the thief had stolen from Aeleus they would have been given an metal arm and told they have until the following night phase to use the arm at night with a command we give them.

The thief doesn’t know it’s an LR so they take a risk using it as they do with any power they get.

obviously we made some negative powers copyable so scum has a chance of getting bad powers just as we made some powers purposefully unstealsble so they can’t be rb’d or copied.

Ahh, that makes sense! Clever way of implementing it. Does it steal a shot away from the target if said player is X-Shot or no? Sorry, now we're just nerding out over game design, but I think game design is half the fun.

It doesn't, the target just gets their shot refunded which is standard for how I handle Rb's. Them stealing a shot does seem like a fun idea tho so maybe if I do a thief in the future I will totes do that LOL. :D :D :D

And yes Game design is sometimes the most fun part for me and honestly it is right now :/ Game running can be fun but also chaos DX

LOL yeah you def would have been killed for that. If I wasn't working through out the day I would have told you to knock it off with the partner = partner crap.

I really did like your posts tho the whole Iskei'd joke was hilarious considering your flavor.

It's just I noticed you quoting lover chat (that was why he was killed by the way guys :surprised: ) and had to tell mod chat. They had the meeting about it while I was IRL in a meeting lol.
So what’s the deal with this game
Scum is covered in grease. Seriously

:surprised:

They have nearly been voted out so many times this game but they keep avoiding it at the last minute.
At least I can take solace in the fact that I did loki's absolute favourite Fate character Waver Velvet justice through my award-winning nuanced portrayal
LOL again the Isekei'd joke had me laughing so yes I can give you that.
yeah honestly I do apologise to you LoVe, my performance was subpar and I didn't mean to throw my life away like that. I owe you two & Town some traditional hamburgers
it's okay x3

Also well done Zipped for surviving for so long, feel bad that people used you upholding my legacy as a reason to be suspicious but I'm still glad you did!

The next time we're paired we'll take them all on! For the Einzberns! For Camelot!

Agreed, I think if I hadn’t stuck my neck out on the crazy theory I think I probably would have gone another two days.

But the pressure! The immense pressure! It was drawing near.

final scum guess:

faddy, pandora, and then maybe wee and Reki.

But I did read that one spoiler.

Also, you DID use the LR night 1 right? I thought that was obvious based on our conversations in the chat and what happened.

i also thought I breadcrumbed it enough that I was your pair but…

I was saying 8 Mafia but it's probably really 6? So I'll say my ULTIMATE POSTMORTEM INSTINCT guesses now are: Zem, Terraforce, ATP, Fate, Faddy and Ty4on

It'll be a team of 5.

Let's see if I need a 6th it would be between wee, HP, and Hobo. I feel like wee was honest with Launch yesterday so I will go with HP.

They have a lifeline if they get a scum master. Depending on where scum hits tonight:
L= Light (Town helpful)
D=Dark (Stabby)

Pair NK--16 (10L 6D)-> 14 (8L 6D) needs maj. 8 so at least 2 more days if a scum master is voted out. Misvote ends in a town loss unless NK is impeded.

1 NK--16 (10L 6D)-> 15 (L9 6D) needs maj. 8 giving town 1 more day making this volo.

Oh I'm not saying it's technically impossible, I just think it's very improbable at this stage lol And honestly, town probably deserves to lose if you go this far without a mafia flip tbh.
