You are going to have to justify that vote next time. Hell, I might as well call you out on it. It might make for some decent bussing material.

Being scum is stressful. I thought I was going to get lynched over some basic miscommunication.

It definitely is. Spent pretty much the whole day thinking about the game and got nothing out of it. We even almost got lynched. Wtf.

You are going to have to justify that vote next time. Hell, I might as well call you out on it. It might make for some decent bussing material.

Oh, you definitely can. I said I wouldn't vote for you but did it because I had yellow as a town read for me. Pretty precarious situation I put myself in.

But it's ok, I think I can get some material on you if it becomes urgent. No one commented on it yet, but your vote for Red Ranger minutes before rac claimed is the scummiest. You come in last after the 3 other votes and you justify it a lot despite having said your piece about Red previously.

Man, I really hope Green isn't a Vigilante lol, we can't jail him again with Mr. Tommy out there.

I love how much we are winging this. Winning this game would be ridiculous.

*ahem*

Anyway, we need to discuss how we are dealing with Tommy. The ideal way would be to jail + kill themc guaranteeing the kill and not having to think about protections anymore. Fact is I don’t think we can, from what you said the jail also protects the target.

@Sawneeks @melonrabbit, can you confirm this for us?

If we can’t do that, I think we should block them and go for one of the confirmed players. That would reveal we have a roleblocker, but I don’t think that would hurt us much now.

We don’t know if Tommy can self protect, I think they can’t but if they can it’s in this phase they’ll do it. Even so I think we should block them to avoid another deathless night.

I think the chance that Tommy can protect himself is fairly low. Most doctors I've seen couldn't. If you are nervous about it, I can Jail Tommy while you kill Green or Trini.

We should kill Tommy soon though. Alternatively, I can try killing Tommy while you try using your power. It is riskier, however.
 

Skull

Costume Account
I think the chance is low as well, if we can’t combo with your block especially, since that would mean even knowing who the doctor is, there is a chance we can’t kill him.

Normally docs that can defend themselves come with the limitation of not being able to protect the same target twice in a row. it’s not that uncommon.

Tommy mentioned some unsharable info he had on Trini, I think?

What would that be? No idea right now, will reread that and see what we fan find.
 

Skull

How do you think tomorrow will go? I think you’ll be a contender for the lynch again, so that means I’ll need to reread the accusations made against you cause they seemed mostly bad logic and I skimmed through them lol.

If we can pick, I think we should leave the Yellow Ranger pile alive as best we can. If you end up flipping before me, town won’t look for me in your vote, especially not one so close.

Well, the Green Ranger, Kimberly, and Trini all voted for the Yellow Ranger. So did Rita, the Blue Ranger, and Tommy.

On the other hand, White Ranger, Bulk, Zack, and Billy votes for me.

Now, the problem is that all of the confirmed townies voted Yellow, while all of the people who voted for me are the unknowns who might be lynch material.

Trini might be a safe choice, because she flip-flopped on the vote. That might make it harder for anyone to learn anything definitive from it. As a confirmed townie, she would be a natural choice anyways.

Alternatively, we kill Tommy or Rita. However, I am loathe to kill Rita, because the uncertainties that surround her are potentially useful.
 

Alpha 5

I will also certainly be up for a lynch again. If I survive tomorrow, I might be safe for a while. That could be a big "if" though.

I suggest you bus me, but we shouldn't be too obvious about it.

As far as Trini and Tommy, we could have a second gossip chat. Perhaps Billy had two shots of his gossip creation. That might explain why Tommy protected Trini. Alternatively, we could have lovers.

Thinking about it, either prospect makes Trini a more attractive target.

Anyways, for now:

Teleport destination set: that room Rita made with the green candle.

I can't answer this directly, but Jailing does Roleblock and Protect a target.

This info makes me want to go for Trini as well, I think I can leave the command here for now.

KILL: Trini

She is one of the few players still going for Rita though. Maybe it’s better we just go for Green instead?
 

Skull

Costume Account
I can set up a bus on you if it’s needed, but I’ll see how the discussion goes first.

I can justify that vote, and maybe even still be on you, but let’s see where town lands tomorrow. They might go for other leads after that vote.
 

Skull

My paranoia on Vig Green is still going though. We’ve seen town celebrity, 3-shot cop, doctor, a gossiper and maybe a BP giver. Gossip is the only one that could be kinda useful for us to copy, the rest is useless IF town doesn’t also have a killing role in their midst.

Maybe we blocked his shot on Trini or Pink Ranger, but I think it makes more sense for Green to be it, if there is one in the game.

Either way, don’t think we can do much about it now. That’s too much of a gut feeling to risk copying it now while you do the kill on Tommy. If he is, he’ll probably use his shot today too so I’d be unable to get it. Let’s just hope I’m crazy and he doesn’t use it on you.
 

Skull

Since we are running out of options, I think I’ll have to use it on Rita to check what is her PR exactly. Maybe there’s a tracker though and that could end the game for us since he’s probably running out of targets to follow, easy to find me doing the dirty work.
 

Skull

Alpha, let’s discuss a bit on the kill. Yellow was after Rita and wanted her lynch at the end before having to vote for you for self preservation. Trini has been on Rita’s ass for quite some time now, it’s a pretty long tunnel actually.

What do you think? I don’t think we can push for Rita’s lynch, but having some vote spread can help us along the way. Would killing Trini bring more suspicions on Rita, or would be forgotten?
 

Skull

I love how we just took Kimberly claim at her word. What if she had more shots and didn’t say anything cause she didn’t get a red check? lol
 

Alpha 5

Sorry, I missed your post this morning.

To be honest, I can never predict how town will react to anything. I still think offing Trini was the right move though.

I'm just disappointed that she was just another ordinary townie.

I think if Kimberly had another shot she would have cleared another townie yesterday, though. She must realize that she's on borrowed time.
 

Skull

Costume Account
Yeah, it was the best option in the end yeah.

Annoying that they are onto you again, and Zack will push for me later. Ugh.

Welp. Didn’t think my vote was that bad, it came in a rush and I had explained myself earlier, but arguing over here won’t do us any good.
 

Skull

Costume Account
Huh, thought Tommy would know that they were blocked. That’s kinda good to know, but not sure what good it will do today. Town has too many players and they’ll default on your vote I think.
 

Alpha 5

Costume Account
It is still a weak reason to vote you yet. You actually were late to the vote and had to rush your choice.

At least Billy was kind enough to fish out Tommy's limitations for us. Of course, what Tommy doesn't know is that he was roleblocked anyways, so it didn't matter who he protected.
 

Skull

Costume Account
If things get rough, I think it might be stupid gamble time. Better to go out in style that just lay down and wait for death.

Thinking of claiming my PR backup thingie, but with the + that scum have a role cop and have found that out. That’s why no other PRs have been killed, even the claimed ones.
 

Skull

I guess I am hahah. I’m follow the lead for now though, let’s see how today pans out.

Not going to drag you into it if you don’t feel like it. I’m not CoolestSpot.

(love you CS:heart:)
 

Skull

We still need 4 mislynches right? We are talking about Day 9 here. If you get lynched today, I’d need to go till Day 10.

Don’t think I’d go that far with ordinary mafia play there, I’m not that eloquent lol. Maybe with sole stupid sprinkled in, might be able to fool some more. I know Zack ain’t getting that though.
 

Skull

We still have Tommy, Kimber and Green as confirmed town. Don’t see Rita or Zack getting votes too.

Hmmmm.
 

Skull

What would’ve happened if we got Kimber before she shared her checks lol, this game would’ve been funnier.
 

Skull

Good post Alpha. I was thinking how to bring that up without disarming my own set up on you.

Rita seems to be second guessing her self right now.
 

Alpha 5

Costume Account
Thanks. It's all true though.

Well, I technically AM scum, and lynching me is the correct move for town, but they don't need to know that.
 

Skull

Costume Account
I take your rational posting style is to our advantage right now. Think you can pretend to take the high ground convincingly? Something like, you know going for you is a mislynch, but since town is in such an advantage that it wouldn’t hurt so much.
Important to point out that it was town/town yesterday so you didn’t see much vote movement.
 

Skull

Costume Account
Thanks. It's all true though.

Yeah it is. I’m still kinda lost on your push. I think your voting record is bad, but that’s it.
 

Skull

Costume Account
I think now is a good moment for me to bus you. I don’t think we can lead a zack lynch today, so when he comes back the tide will probably change.

I’ll need to reread to actually get something to push... playing too passively right now, there are too few leads to go for it feels.
 

Alpha 5

Costume Account
I think I'm dead to be honest. The one bright light so far is that no one else has jumped on the vote train.

Though I do wonder where Zack has been. He hasn't posted at all today other than at the start.

If I'm lucky, he has been busy rereading and second guessing himself again.
 

Skull

Costume Account
Hahah yeah, that didn’t happen. Sucks that they just defaulted on your lynch, no other leads were brought up and we couldn’t do much this phase.

In the end, we played too passively the whole game. Being scum is too hard lol, tried rereading looking for something to throw at others but couldn’t come up with anything.
 

Skull

Costume Account
I’m not even sure Zack is Brazil, but bringing that up should be fun. It would be pretty funny if he’s not lol, but I don’t think I’d lose anything on this.
 

Alpha 5

Costume Account
Yeah I'm dead. I don't think there is a single thing I can say at this point to dissuade them.

I could claim, but odds are that would do nothing anyways. I probably could have counter claimed Tommy yesterday, but I think that would have backfired anyways.

Well, it was a decent run as first-time scum. My critical mistake was piggybacking on Zack's scum read of Zordon without making my own arguments. I was too transparent there.

I'm still not sure what is supposed to be scummy about my Goldar vote, I would have done the exact same as town. That's just my playstyle. It probably would have gotten me lynched even as town.

Anyways, sorry Zack! I actually just have a bad head for fine details and a poor memory, so I honestly forgot all that stuff you posted! Saying that in the main thread wiuld just get me scum-read faster, so I'll let you read it when the game is done. I'm not good at clever lies and manipulation.
 

Skull

You had a good game Alpha. We kinda just got chain lynched from the start, and town PRs had a field day with us.

Had real fun with you guys. Wish Zipped and Monkey could’ve played more with us.
 

Alpha 5

Yeah, sorry I probably won't be around to help you much longer. Still, I wish you luck! Suspicion against you is still undeveloped. I hope you get an opening to shake it.
 

Skull

I will kill Zack this night if he doesn’t finish his case on me. No way I’m leaving that open.
 

Skull

Oh, and who do you think I should finally copy after all this time?

I think going for Rita to confirm her PR. Or maybe go for someone else and see what I can get.
 

Alpha 5

Costume Account
I'm not sure who you should copy. I guess it is too late to copy Billy and create a gossip chat. Though that could be a hilarious way to mess with people.

There probably was a vigilante, though I presume they wasted their shots at some point. Not much use now though.

And sure, I'll self hammer. Let me get caught up.
 

Skull

Let me plagiarize Sophy senpai and make this my diary, only without the funny parts since I suck.


Now that there is no voice of reason to dissuade me from doing stupid shit, it’s time to gambit a bit.


I’ll kill Zack. Not gonna lie, big part of why I’m doing that it’s because he’s probably Brazil. I bet he thinks I wouldn’t do it, but he deservers a NK, he has been too right this game, only right I give him something in return. It’s a big risk though. He pointed his finger pretty decisively at me, and him waking up dead will rightfully point town towards me. Town is pretty comfortable too, so they really shouldn’t think too much and just lynch me and be done with it (this is 100% why I’ll die).

The thing is, I can also use that to my advantage. If I wasn’t the last scum, I’d definitely kill Zack today to get town on Skull’s ass. It’s the easiest mislynch ever. Why wouldn’t everyone just pile on me and see what color I flip? Scum still needs 4 mislynches after all, so that’s a easy chip on the difference.
Well, I’m not that scummy after all. I did more bus votes over the game than real votes, D3 was the only day I DIDN’T bus someone. I pretty much bathed in the blood of my own team so far. I think I can pull some cover to me.

Finally, to add some more idiot, I’ll also fake claim PR backup and deduce that the last scum is a role cop that found me out. That’s why Tommy or Kimberley weren’t targeted after they claimed, since I’d earn their role either way. Scum didn’t go for me instead because we’ve had rac as a confimed town since D2, and then Trini, and then cop claim with 2 green checks...

I’m not sure whether I should reveal that I’d get 1 shot back even if the dead PR had none, but that could get me some retro points by how weirded out I was with Rita’s claim, since her having only one shot makes my weirdly too strong. That’s one of the reasons why I’ll copy her.

Anyways, that’s what I thinking. Town won’t have other leads just as they didn’t this phase, so I’ll need to do some work to pull this off, but let’s do it. Worst case scenario I’ll kill my brother, so that’s alright.
 

Skull

Humm.. I’ve changed my mind.

COPY: Blue Ranger

I trust Rita, I believe she’s telling the truth. It’s best if I use this to get more info on other players.
 

Skull

Costume Account
I suck at gambiting hahah.

People got way more hang up over my fake claim than I expected. Thought Zack getting NK'd would be the main issue, not the claim. Maybe if I had just defused Rita instead of claiming I would've gotten another day in, but at least I had some stupid fun while at it. Don't think I'd get 4 more days either way, can't even come up with a push on those players despite rereading the thread ad nauseam.
 

Skull

Costume Account
Maybe Blue will take the bait there and say something about the killed players.

I think Rita will double down for a bit and then back down... she had the tendency to second guess herself despite being completely right along the game. Albeit I think she got more confidence now so she'll probably end up voting for me.
I don't have much to push for White or w/e, so they'll default on my lynch like they did with Alpha's, which is completely right since town is so conformable right now.
