No. This is working as intended. The order of actions goes bomb is gifted -> bomb is received -> a notification is given. I never fulfill the second step, because I start the with the bomb that kills me. Thus, no message.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
Oh yeah that makes sense. Kyaa lets just hope you can get one more bomb off tonight, just in case you're in the shuffle the next day.

I'm sorry but I have to replace Salva. He already had a warning here for the pronouns and it happened again in the main thread
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
@SalvaPot the agreed upon rule when we talked about it in one of the recent review threads was one warning and then replacement. It was done that way because of how frequently the issue arises. Fran didn't make the rules, don't put him in this awkward position. I know it sucks, especially since you were doing so well, but that's just how it goes. Hopefully this helps curb it being an issue in the future.

Oh, didn't know that.

Ok then, sorry. See ya.

I'm sorry too Salva, I know it sucks for everyone. You still contributed a ton to help us get to where we are. Hopefully we can bring home the win - I look forward to playing with you again sometime!

I don't know I can play again, this pronoun problem I have is a psychological one, I got it checked with my brother-in-law last game it happened. It slips into my speaking speech and into my writing speech all the time, is the same reason why I skip words or replace. I also sometime refer to myself as female adjetives (in spanish). It's just... harder for me.

But I can avoid it if a proof-read, so really I don't have an excuse, if I post before reading in the heat of the moment chances are I'm going to screw up. Like I did.

It was a lot of fun and I love everything about this game. Good luck, everyone.
 

SalvaPot

YEAH
Just so we are clear I'm not sulking anymore, its sad but I get it, there are rules and I broke them and that is that. This is a shortcoming I need to deal with myself. So don't feel bad about me, fair is fair.

The fact that Zipped knew more than is publicly known at the day start is quite apparent.

Poke it I shall a bit. I am a good townie, I am worried by contradictions. It could be MEANIES, oh!

Yeah, the three of us agreed to keep his role in this a secret and then he went and literally mirrored our exact reads. Gotta be more coy than that Zipped! So push away. Don't go too crazy with it, but it's good to prod him some. Only Monkey and I should be really confident he's town and even we are downplaying it to preserve the info.
 

Kyanrute

Yeah, I spent at least half an hour wording just the approach to the matter.

You’re in a pretty good position FYI. I’ll let you get a baring on the game first before I worry about filling you in too much with scum only info.

tldr state of things infodump for gorlax:

you are not under imminent vote or lynch threat
dubs is getting bussed today, is inevitable and the loss is already accepted
a lot of townies are confirming each other so endgame might us versus confimed townies = rip in pepperonis
dubs sac + the future unveiling the way the current narrative spins it can get us to win around lategame, but various unknowns remain
natiko is deep wolf and will go to f3 and get lynched then
salva was our 2nd best undercover agent
blarg has a life expectancy of 1-2 cycles
my life expectancy is like a cycle or two better than blarg's
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
I think the numbers are on our side when you consider your boom and Gor’s extra kill if we get skittish.

hi folks, I hope I can be of help.
first time we're in a team, Natiko?

I tried to give my honest impressions in thread, sorry if I shine the spotlight on some. I'd definitely look at Kyan as town and ... Blarg, you're already dead :/ sorry
 

Blargonaut

SCUM UP!
sry to see you go, Salva :( Will try & pull this through to the end for you

I understand it being a psychological thing, my mom does that all the time unconsciously swapping he/she when talking about people; not with any malice in mind, for her it's some kind of language hiccup she doesn't realise she's doing when it happens

If you decide to replay but are still nervous about it, you could try as much as possible just to directly use players' nicknames / short-form names maybe :o

Dr. Monkey said:
[...] And yeah, Blarg posts a lot of things that seem like fluff or that appear unrelated. But there's a couple of things to say about that. First, honestly, posting a ton of fluff or noise is often town. It is an anti-town play - and I'll say it's my biggest weakness as town, too, besides being pocketed by Sorian when he's scum, because I don't know how to shut up and stop posting - but more often than not, it's town (I've seen some very notable exceptions).

But that's not Blarg. Blarg is very calculated regardless of alignment. I remember the first time I played with Blarg, it totally looked like he was posting just weird empty nonsense, except it was code, or it was stuff he was able to easily make look like code when he had to fake claim. And then the next game I played with Blarg, he did the same thing and he was town. [...]

Don't push against me too hard Today though, wait until Tomorrow once my Unlunchable's active to fuck my shit up

For now just namedrop me once in a while or something
 
Blarg you're getting shot tomorrow, probably. maybe. by some. 10% chance
In other words what do we do to monkey

You think you are under that great a threat tomorrow? We could use a mislynch D4 into Blarg's Bizarre Adventure: Shitposter is Unkillable on D5 to minmax night kills, bombs and stuff.

Your read is correct Gorlak. He did that once already. Add unlynchable and we get the above anime series about it.
 
any chance we have a role reading the scum chat? (random posts, we've had this somewhere... hvv?) I just dropped everyones name in a single post :o
 

Kyanrute

kyan-rute
What a disgusting role that would be. Has a chance of automatic effortless victory on a high roll. I don't it gets in unless it has really stupid restrictions, like 1-shot, N7 only, one sentence.

Monkey should have a bomb on her, we hopefully kill her with that.
 
What even is this game. Reading our scum chat took way more time than it should have. All the planning and role speculations is wild.

Pressing issues:
Role thief a.k.a. Zombie - I was already iffy about the timing and erasure of PMs prior to replacing, but mentioning it now would potentially reveal extra insight, no?

Which was the second perk chosen from my role? Unlunchable yes?
 

Kyanrute

kyan-rute
We know that the Zombie is a separate entity from Dubs. Town can't conclude that yet and Occam's Razor suggests that Dubs is the one eating the roles. The edit times are a known disparity to town though, but they can't yet argue too far with that yet since Dubs has said nothing since the night.
 
There is a lot to look into, I love this game Fran. Do you all want to hear about nen types? That isn't really helpful, since we don't know Fran's original distrubition, but it's fun to me :)

Enhancer: Salva(me), Aeleus(claim)
Emitters: Sorian, Monkey, Natiko
Manipulators: Muffin(claim), Turm, Blarg
Transmuters: Geno, Sneeks, nin(probably)
Conjurer: Dubs, Stu, Zombie
Specialist: Kyan, Kalor

Unknown: Flush, Donna, Vere,
Zipped - created a chat, maybe Transmuter/Specialist
Malus (had a BP)

What I'm saying is, we've had a ton of emitters and transmuter, so more info for is town becoming less likely. Of the remaining players there will likely be another Enhancer and the Zombie as conjurer/specialist. Zipped also isn't info role. I'm thinking Malus might be an enhancer (possibly conjurer). So between Flush, Donna, Vere there is likely only one info role left. Barring a possible conjurer with x-shots.
 
@B-dubs Your window of opportunity (day-start) is probably gone but on the off chance it's not: you could target Sneeks power and "BOO" some confirmed player (Royal or Vere) into revealing their role.
 

Kyanrute

kyan-rute
Zipped should be the power gaining one, a conjurer.

He specifically said he sent the command N1. Maybe since it’s a delayed thing it’s different.

His role is conjurer, it builds over time. Tonight he has nothing next night he’s a self watcher and motion detects someone, fourth night he can do and investigate OR fifth night he can make himself mod confirmed at the start of the next day.
 

Kyanrute

kyan-rute
We can't fully count out there not being further info roles, since a town specialist could've rolled one. Geno might've been the town specialist though, he had the dankest role so far out of the town flips / claims. Alternatively the town specialist is the Zombie and if the Zombie is neutral, town might not even have a specialist.

tldr too early for dank speculation says kyaaa
 
kya 2 seriouz for dank speculation. I know there are still 1 or 2 info roles out there, but we can be happy that they are only so few and we can pretty much nail them down to a few names.
Alright Zipped = conjurer, with multiple powers. Probably also bulletproof. He convinced monkey did he?

I can't see Geno's role anymore, what was his deal? I forgot apart from creating a two player chat? Who was in there?
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
I believe this is the first time we've been on the same team! At best it has happened once before back on GAF, maybe? Geno had a costume account and pulled two people into a night chat with him. Those people would stay and more would get added each night.
 

Kyanrute

kyan-rute
Natiko can give a better read than I about where Monkey is with Zipped, I'd say she is considering him a something between a town lean and strong town but she could be faking the low town read part of it in the thread.

Muffin and Sawneeks were in Geno's chat N1. Geno pressed them both to claim and said if he was to die N1, one of them was scum. Geno died that night and Sawneeks outed Muffin's role and Muffin outed parts of Sawneeks'. If you are going to suspect Muffin, that is a possible attack vector right there, fitting for a replacement who is going through old topics. Other than that the quirk of Geno's role was- I don't know if this information is written out there. Be careful with it.

Geno had a line with the dead IIRC, the townies he added to his chat and died would get moved to a second chat instead of the spec chat and Geno had access to this chat - a line with the dead townies. Non-townies would move to the spec thread as normal. A cool role, really.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
Kyaa you are going to get to explode magnificently at this rate. We could be in a position to win without it and you'll just get to stunt on them for the win.

Monkey and I have agreed to try and thread the needle on Zipped of not revealing why he's clear to us, thus keeping him in our "maybe scum" pile, while not actually thinking there's any chance he's scum. We'll only reveal the additional night chat we had with him if people are really pushing him.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
I'm going to laugh for all of time if they somehow vote out town. I expect Monkey to swerve back to B-Dubs though.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
@B-dubs Feel my energy calling out to you. Notice the thread like three minutes before day end and then force a tie somehow.
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
It's kind of a shame it didn't swing from B-Dubs. Was going to suggest we kill Monkey before this house of cards topples. No one else is worth letting eat that retaliate kill.
 

Kyanrute

kyan-rute
It never was going to swing from this. Everybody should see the bait in the "hey lets do some alternative trains choochoo".
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
Just because that's what Monkey intended doesn't mean a bunch of townies wouldn't trip over themselves to shit the bed at day end :P
 

Natiko

Send Blarg to do the deed tonight since he's invincible tomorrow, yes?

Monkey didn't say anything about the bomb either.

Well, not like there are guns out there, today should've taken care of that. I only BOOM :D under a lynch threat now.

i knew it was going to happen

*checks the browser tab is the right one*

i have myself a schrödinger's chat number 3
 
It's not like me being there would've changed anything.

Why doesn't monkey banter with me? She deserved that win, but let me tease you about it hrngh

I'm afraid of zipped investigatin me. Maybe.

Other than that we need to get rid of the "hard" confirms. Flush/Vere - 50/50 on protection. If there are any protective roles out there.

Kyan I laughed hard at your post two pages ago here about scum only killkill powers. lol

Any hunch on Monki using ITA? I would like someone to be unjillable. (Woops not correcting this mistake)
 

Blargonaut

SCUM UP!
just a heads-up I got confirmation of myself picking UNLUNCHABLE; got it as a 1-shot now

How it works apparently is that I have to activate it during the Night, and then I'll be UNLUNCHABLE during the upcoming Day

so,

I think I should use it now?

I think she'll sit on it and when she is never NKed she'll use that as the reason to scum read me.

I assume you can't use it in conjunction with sticky? Either way the answer is probably yes.
 

Blargonaut

one sec actually, just confirming with Fran if I can still use my STICKY Power Tonight if I activate the UNLUNCHABLE Tonight

btw I can use my STICKY Power again Tonight; target suggest(s)?

hmmm I meant for the "star" to be above the giant monkey monster as if jumping down into the destruction scene from a great height with the lightning flashes behind it as the background

SCUM UP!
I also clicked Post early by accident hence the cut-off bit of the DEATH BY A THOUSAND VOTES chain, although it still portrays the narrative quite well as you could consider the initial 3 votes as 2 of them being by "Montiko" and the biggest-sized one, the very 1st vote, represents B-Dubs himself as a metaphor for the Day's absence being the greatest hit against him and not the player's opinions themselves
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
I'm assuming Vere. I took his comment about B-Dubs' recap to be a soft about how Vere is gobbling powers.
 

Blargonaut

SCUM UP!
Also, easter egg: if you focus your attention on the dancing crowd at the beginning of the scene, you'll notice Spidermen which I specifically selected that GIF for as my self-insert cameo (STICKY me)
 

Blargonaut

There is one (1) Spiderman for each possible [Mafia] Alignment facet of Blargonaut; Town-aligned, Mafia-aligned and Neutral

just got confirmation from host Fran that I can indeed use both my STICKY and my UNLUNCHABLE simultaneously Tonight. Thanks, Fran
 

Natiko

Town's Friendly Neighborhood Serial Killer
I definitely say use it then. If we land on anyone but you tomorrow we're in amazing shape. Better to use it now in case it goes sideways and it still results in town wasting a day. It's basically a free NK at that point.

claims to be flush, used sorian-shot n1 to check kalor + monkey and that's the reason why he urged monkey to shoot kalor

he takes prs from dead players and uses them on the same night
