lolol
polter definitely has fandorin dw he pretty much outright just said he was scum

I do wonder who Fand actually plans to try and lynch.

rac and Polter are both the only real possibilities obviously but I can't see a good enough case for either.
 
Can scum even do that? <_>

I wonder this myself. I assume not but would be cool if you could >_> Suicide yourself at night!

rac and Polter are both the only real possibilities obviously but I can't see a good enough case for either.

There is no case for them that is better than Fandorin. Everyone else has been green checked or has a verified ability and most likely does not have a second active ability (which would be day killing)

Same, I imagine rac could be easier since other roles have been weird though. Say that town having an odd night doctor and vig/full doctor made no sense either so scum could have one npc and a npc/day killer. It'll be interesting to see what he tries.

Kay-lor? Kah-lor?
I wonder if they'd consider a no lynch and hope scum narrows down the suspects. Though the day kill would probably stop them from doing that.
 
But this is too much, we are not discussing 5 players right now. We shouldn't even consider Ynnek and Kawl at this point.
  1. rac replaced Ferg (he/him; EDT) NEW?
  2. Poltergust (he/him; EST)
  3. Fandorin replaced Xbro (he/him; UTC-6)
Scum is here.

Fandorin has even just laid it out.

Now all they need to do is wonder who has no verified status.

Rac is verified NPC creator
Polter is verified fake deather
Fandorin is unverified Vanilla.

By ANY amount of logic, the choice is obvious.

Stuart going to quit mafia forever if Ynnek is the final mislynch.

I honestly can't believe polter hasn't scrolled up, ynnek says why it wouldn't make sense to have him and stu on opposite teams.

THINK ABOUT IT why on EARTH would scum!ynnek out a town read scum!include :(?

I can't believe this shit

rac - NPC creator, unlikely scum had two
Ynnek - as good as a greencheck via Stuart flip
Polter - proved his role by dying temporarily and couldn't have killed anybody
Kawl - literal greencheck and scum already had a godfather
Fandorin - vanilla town claim lol
 
"Don't kill based on the claimed roles because then I die"

"Also somehow Mafia has two factional abilities, one being an NK, one being a Day Vig"

Lmao Fandorin literally posted the list I made in this thread and they still aren't lynching him

COME ON

No-one remembers what dead players said in this game. If they managed to die they mustn't have had anything important to say in the first place.

Okay

so RIP someone, probably Kawl later on I'm guessing.
About that...

Town will lynch Fan when Kawl shows up. It’s really easy to overthink stuff late game though so I’m not surprised they’re rehashing this all.

Well Ynnek is MIA, Kawl is MIA and Fan can submit a kill in 20 minutes or more from now iirc. and Polter has gone to eat.

I have a feeling a kill will go out before a lynch happens.
 
Fandorin just thinks he has one vest. There's been no reason to suspect he has multiple beyond the event item he won.

So we might have no day kill.

That would confuse Town even more. It shouldn't lead to lynching Town but it might confuse them enough for Fandorin to take advantage >.<

Kawl gets notified every time he loses a vest so he would know a day kill happened.
 
This too, I don't feel like finding it but I thought it was public info that he had two even though no one has said as much for awhile.

Yeah I remember seeing it but again, I just thought they overrode. Also didn't know that he was told when one got taken out.

The more you know.
 

Kalor

Kay-lor? Kah-lor?
Now that you mention it, I vaguely remember Kawl mentioning double vests. I mustn't have really absorbed it at the time.
 
Huh,

I'm bothered that I didn't highlight one of those. That was unintentional before someone starts trying to divine something weird from that.

I never actually noticed that myself

(I'd probably go back and highlight myself if it was me since that would annoy the hell out of me. I prefer consistency >_<)
 
Got busy and completely forgot about this game. Final 5 wow. Fandorin is the only scum left, right? Hopefully it should be an easy win for town at this point.
 
I really don't know what to make of all of this. The only person I can see myself voting for is fandorin, but it still doesn't feel right. Whoever the remaining scum is, you've blended yourself in very well.

IT IS RIGHT.

IT'S THE ONLY LOGICAL CHOICE

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF POLTER AND VOTE FOR THE SCUM
 
There is only one good option and 4 bad or outright STUPID options.

Kawl: Green checked. Godfather already dead. Unlikely to be 2 Godfathers.
Polter & Rac & Ynnek: Verified powers. Unlikely to have day vig abilities
Fandorin: Vanilla

Out of all of those. Ynnek would be stupid, Kawl would be stupid, Polter and Rac have a stronger case because of their verified abilities.

Fandorin is the only choice.

To be fair that’s over simplifying matters. Having an ability verified doesn’t preclude it from being their only ability - especially in a game designed by Sorian. Look at BladeSymphony’s role for instance. It’s also very hard to just default into the ‘obvious’ lynch in lylo. Everyone loves to reference the town hooker moment - well in that game several of us scum read Sorian, but I was SO SURE this other group was scum and that if we hit scum I would be the next person to die that I forced the issue and said to leave Sorian for another day. I was completely wrong and threw the game, all because I didn’t want to take the “easy” route.

It still makes more sense than lynching Oreo. If Oreo had been scum, they'd have probably fought harder being the last scum around.

He was aimed at because his power didn't seem towny/they didn't think about what uses it might have to town (like delaying kills if Oreo had managed to hit scum with it) along with being quiet and not fighting his lynch. If he was the last scum, he'd have tried harder I'm sure. Oreo's lynch was completely unneeded.

Besides that, only JOATS have had several 'active' abilities, the rest have been only active or passive AFAIK or one of each. (RB & Godfather for instance). I'd say it's highly likely that only one person is likely to have the day vig ability and it's the only vanilla left alive.

tl;dr: Oversimplifying or not, there is no case to be made for anyone but Fandorin. There is no reason where Town!Brazil is dead but Town!Fandorin is left alive considering scum has been prioritizing active players to basically confirmed players like Ynnek.

I mean yes, we know the best case is against Fan since he’s the last scum. Like I said though Sorian has a penchant for unconvential roles and BladeSymphony with both an active protect and active kill ability show it’s not impossible. As far as the final scum defending himself, Polter is the one mainly going out of his way to defend himself currently so that’s not always a good route to take. The best argument for Fan is that he’s alive. The better choice would have been to leave Brazil to be the final kill before the winning death since that would mask Fan living a bit more, but I can understand why Fan would just want to get rid of him once he was delayed.

tbf i could totally see last scum giving up like that, it's an uphill battle especially with all the confirmeds. maybe projecting, but i personally couldn't imagine having a lot of posting motivation in that position.

and delays are just bootleg roleblocks, which this game had of either alignment but they usually shake out to hurting town more than scum. oreo's target record wasn't showing the best and it was floating around that his delay on blarg had maybe killed zeke. i don't think his lynch was that bad, brazil had a list of other stuff oreo had done outside his role that was also rather convincing i feel.
 
oh man i knew fandorins behavior was going to come back. there's like nothing actually concretely scummy there that i can remember :x

town srsly needs to be dumb and just go lynch on merit of roles

Please Fan, for the love of everything shoot that day kill out on Ynnek before the day ends. Don’t try for Kawl again D: If he times it right he can wipe Ynnek then vote rac to end it at this rate.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
Hey Sorian, out of curiosity do you count posts between when you say to standby and when you post the flip? Like let’s say Kawl and Polter have voted rac, Fan submits the kill, and you post the standby post - if a vote or unvote came in prior to the flip would you count it?

What I said is still a good enough case to me. Not the roles part but also the fact that Town!Brazil is dead. Scum has gone after active players a lot. Why would they stop now?

If Fandorin is alive yet Brazil is dead, it leads to the idea that Fandorin is scum. If he was Town, he'd be dead by now (and certainly by the day kill today)

It's not even a dumb idea and it's FAR more concrete than going after Rac because "idk, rac feels more likely than Fandorin"
 
I feel like I'm left with no options here. A vote on either Kawl or Fandorin aren't even remotely justifiable for me now, Ynnek7 has been considered town for nearly the whole game due to his role, and rac shares a similar role to scum, so that redundancy gives points in his favor.

NO Polter. NOO
 
It all hinges on how rac reacts when he shows back up.

He can either turn things around with a single post, or throw his hands in the air and give up angrily.

Riveting.
 
Kawl is prepared to defend Ynnek

Kawl is invincible more or less

Polter isn't likely.

Rac needs to defend himself well enough to shift things away from him. The only one left would be Fandorin at that point.

Come on Rac.

I see your point, it would be strange for town Fandorin to be alive. But I hate to say it, I probably could explain it away that Brazil died bc he had more town cred. With him starting the train on ET and Kalor taking a shot at him there was like no chance he was scum. Fandorin has been townread but I don't think he's had any moment where people definitively said there was no way scum would do this.

It's easy to ignore/explain off one wrong thing when the overall posting and behavior of someone has been so good :(

but also go sleep the game will still be here later lolol
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
Just waiting for Polter to jump to the next step in his concern and decide that’s why Kalor shot Brazil instead of rac and why rac still went with faircure, both were scum of course!

This really doesn't make sense btw. Fan and Brazil trusted each other, killing one of them breaks up a possibly anti-scum voting block. If anything Brazil's death makes Fan look more town.

And survival isn't suspicious while there are still confirmeds alived.
 
*sigh*

townies, this is really simple ;-;.

- polter couldn't kill while dead
- scum!ynnek wouldn't help out the most townread scum at that time
- why would scum have two npc creators? why wouldn't town have one at least if that was the case thus not rac
- why would scum!kawl take the 50% chance of hitting team mates

thus it is fandorin :(.

Hey y'all, it's always easier to look at the game from the spec chat and see the way out for town; if they were here and you were there you'd probably be playing in a similar way to them. Because of this I'm going to ask everyone to tone down on the comments saying how logical/obvious is Choice A, and that Town is bad/is dumb/can't think to be thinking about Choice B.
That doesn't foster good discussion and puts the remaining players below us, when like I said most of us would be doing the same thing. Lylo is just hard.

Is Kawl an e-sporter?

It seems simpler when you're able to watch from afar. It's better to go over your options carefully and not rush into a lynch.
 
I'm sorry, I don't want the remaining townies to think I'm having a go when they get access here.

Instead, I'll cheer them on as best I can :).

Also I looked it up and kawl's game isn't a videogame, you got me confused by mentioning smash up above, lol.

Yea, I could make a case for rac still being scum. Play style > can trump your role claim (with the role rac had neway)if you did some scum read things. The only thing giving rac town cred is “why would there be two scum npc creators”. So I don’t blame town for looking at rac.
 
Let's say he day kills Ynnek, mislynch rac. Kawl(1BP), Polter and Fand remain, if he shoots Kawl then they can win because he can't dayvig in the first 2 hours, so we do have a chance even if they mislynch.
