[Blargonaut]

okay.

1st order of business: I say we activate Mr. Hedin's EASY UPDATE event now (for D2)

Fat4all: 205
weemadarthur: 164
TheChuggernaut / Chugg: 157
Conditional-Pancakes: 131

according to vote tool these are the 4 top Post Count players, and the EASY UPDATE event would make it a D2 Thunderdome between them.

It's D2 and it behooves us to stress everyone out now the most while there's still a lot of players. The fact that all votes against these 4 must rhyme (according to the stipulated rules of EASY UPDATE event), and that only a MAJORITY VOTE actually ends the Day (nothing less); that's pain, and that's what we want for Town

Mr. Hedin, IMO do the thing

 

[Blargonaut]

besides this EVENT activation, these are the rest of our tools at the moment:

ACTIVE FOR USE:
Mr. Hedin: NINJA-kill
Aeleus: Odd-Night (N1) ROLEBLOCK

PASSIVE:
Blarg: (passive Power) Godfather (shows as Town to Alignment Investigators)
Sparks: (passive Power) Nexus (deflects Actions, but not being killed, away to a random other player)

so...

FOR NIGHT 1:​

​

Mr. Hedin -> Activate: EASY UPDATE
Aeleus -> ROLEBLOCK: _________???
Sparks -> Kill: __________???​

 

[Blargonaut]

Era's own thread post-count (not the Vote Tool's) also shows Fat, wee, Pancakes and Chuggs as TOP 4 HIGHEST POSTERS

 

[Blargonaut]

also please kindly confirm how much DON BUCKS each of you has at the moment (personally I have $0.00 as you all may know).

 

[Aeleus]

I still have all of mine

 

[Hedin]

@Fanto can I do the Easy Update and ninja kill in the same night? I don't see any restrictions in the PM.

 

[Hedin]

I also have all of my money.

 

[Fanto]

@Fanto can I do the Easy Update and ninja kill in the same night? I don't see any restrictions in the PM.

Yeah you can do them both.

 

[Blargonaut]

SO WHO TO KILL?

Personally I'm thinking we off either Lone_Prodigy or Vincent Alexander Tonight.

Thoughts on choices?

 

[Blargonaut]

I think Sparks should do the Night-kill for now because he's Ascetic (nothing can affect/interrupt him doing it)?

 

[Blargonaut]

How about we attack Sparks and let RNGsus decide who's Night-killed

 

[Blargonaut]

gives us all plausible deniability

 

[Hedin]

That would interesting

 

[Blargonaut]

FANTO is our Mafia Don Bucks like a cash-pool? Can we as a team buy something, or do we have to have the individual balance each to pay for whatever

 

[Blargonaut]

oh no wait shit lol Ascetic explicitly says it redirects everything EXCEPT kills which I just said myself before I said that woof brain-fart

 

[Hedin]

I'm good with ninjaing LP and then doing the update right when the day starts.

 

[Fanto]

FANTO is our Mafia Don Bucks like a cash-pool? Can we as a team buy something, or do we have to have the individual balance each to pay for whatever

No, purchases must be made individually. No cash-pool.

I'm good with ninjaing LP and then doing the update right when the day starts.

Easy Update is a night action, so you'll still have to submit it before actions lock FYI, unless I'm reading this incorrectly.

 

[Blargonaut]

My own Actions proposal for us would be:

Sparks -> KILL: Lone_Prodigy​

Mr. Hedin -> EASY UPDATE (btw Fanto, could Mr. Hedin activate it now during Night-time, so it kicks in immediately at D2-start?) oh just answered k​

Aeleus -> ROLEBLOCK: uhhhhh ???​

 

[Blargonaut]

Mr. Hedin your NINJA is useful but we got DICE in play and NINJA makes you unseen but still possible for you to be redirected by the DICE to someone else which would be not good

Sparks can't be redirected so IMO he brings the meat back on the menu Tonight

 

[Hedin]

OK that works, if Sparks doesn't show I will put the command in though.

As far as the RB goes I have no idea, maybe Kyan?

 

[Hedin]

Easy Update

Let's get that out one in.

 

[Aeleus]

wee wants me to set up a claim for her, we either kill her now or I do it.

 

[Fanto]

For the record, you guys can submit actions for your partners if they are AFK.

So, if you want Sparks to do the night kill, just say like, "Sparks: Kill: Player" and Sparks will do the kill

 

[Blargonaut]

[...] Easy Update is a night action, so you'll still have to submit it before actions lock FYI, unless I'm reading this incorrectly.

WHOSE GAME IS THIS REALLY

 

[Aeleus]

wee wants me to set up a claim for her, we either kill her now or I do it.

done it, pray she's not a weak gossip

 

[Fanto]

WHOSE GAME IS THIS REALLY

Lol, I meant reading his post incorrectly, not my game rules lol.

 

[Blargonaut]

wee wants me to set up a claim for her, we either kill her now or I do it.

hmm.

If we kill wee that changes who 4 is in the EASY UPDATE Thunderdome participants...

Fanto, for EASY UPDATE; when you're picking who's the Thunderdome 4 top posters, will you go by the ERA THREAD POST COUNT ("Who Replied?" post count) or the current Vote Tool post count?

Because going by current Era thread post count; if we kill wee now, it would become Top 4 posters: Fat4All, Pancakes, Chuggs and Maol.

But by Vote Tool post count; it says I would be in the Top 4 if we kill wee now?

 

[Blargonaut]

also Ael, got any thoughts on who to Roleblock? I dunno rn

 

[Fanto]

Fanto, for EASY UPDATE; when you're picking who's the Thunderdome 4 top posters, will you go by the ERA THREAD POST COUNT ("Who Replied?" post count) or the current Vote Tool post count?

Vote Tool post count.

 

[Blargonaut]

wait Aeleus; what do you mean set up a claim for her?

A Role-claim?

One of our MAFIA STORE items, the Greater Potion; it forces a player to say their real Role-Name at Day-start. It's worth $1,000 and if one of you buys it RIGHT NOW and uses it on wee RIGHT NOW, wee will be forced to truthfully Name-claim?? Would that be sabotage

OR

what if one of us buys the Greater Potion and uses it on you Tonight, Ael?

So your true Role-name ("Cold Blooded") becomes mod-confirmed at Day-start? I'm thinking too fast to consider possible consequences??

 

[Fanto]

So your true Role-name ("Cold Blooded")

To be clear, it's not the flavor name that they would need to say, it's the role name. So for Aeleus, that would be, "Odd Night Roleblocker/Even Night Strongman"

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

Who should I nk?

 

[Blargonaut]

To be clear, it's not the flavor name that they would need to say, it's the role name. So for Aeleus, that would be, "Odd Night Roleblocker/Even Night Strongman"

oh shit this changes everything

QUICK WHOSE ROLE DO WE WANT PUBLICLY MOD-CONFIRMED???

Buy the Greater Potion and we can Role-flip somebody to be revealed at Day-start!!!

 

[Blargonaut]

ok so I just read back and you said you don't wanna Roleblock anybody right now, understandable there's just too many moving targets and no need to expose yourself for the slim chance you Roleblock someone important right? Understandable

so our moves for N1 are:

Sparks -> KILL: Lone_Prodigy​

Mr. Hedin -> EASY UPDATE​

Aeleus -> n/a​

Blarg -> n/a​

​

and if any of you want to buy an ITEM right now and use it right now on somebody...?​

 

[Hedin]

Do we want anyone to be mod confirmed? I mean it's basically a one shot role cop for us.

 

[Blargonaut]

ooooh okay priorities; first, are we all okay with Sparks killing LP?

Ael, did you want to off wee instead? But if we do, EASY UPDATE will put me in the Thunderdome of 4, instead of wee

 

[Blargonaut]

Do we want anyone to be mod confirmed? I mean it's basically a one shot role cop for us.

hmmm I dunno actually thinking

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

What about killing wee?

 

[Aeleus]

Don't kill wee, I think it's too late now regardless

 

[Blargonaut]

Fanto, query; the item that Sparks bought, the Lesser Potion? Does that effect of, "Have your target's alignment show the opposite in any investigations," last FOREVER on the player we use it on? Or is it for that particular Night only when we used it on that player?

 

[Hedin]

I'm still good with targeting LP unless we want Blarg in the Thunderdome, whatever it is, for cover.

 

[Fanto]

Fanto, query; the item that Sparks bought, the Lesser Potion? Does that effect of, "Have your target's alignment show the opposite in any investigations," last FOREVER on the player we use it on? Or is it for that particular Night only when we used it on that player?

That night only.

 

[Blargonaut]

I'm still good with targeting LP unless we want Blarg in the Thunderdome, whatever it is, for cover.

"Thunderdome" means for the whole of Day 2, only 1 of the 4 players in the Thunderdome can be voted out that Day. You won't be able to vote against anybody else except those 4 players. Anybody NOT in the Thunderdome is safe from elimination that Day.

like dropping select ppl into an arena pit and having them fight to the death

So if I was in the Thunderdome I'd be entering the DANGER ZONE

 

[Blargonaut]

I think we're okay with our current picks...

Fanto, one last? query: can Sparks do the Night-kill AND use his Lesser Potion on somebody too?

 

[Fanto]

I think we're okay with our current picks...

Fanto, one last? query: can Sparks do the Night-kill AND use his Lesser Potion on somebody too?

Yes.

 

[Blargonaut]

I think Sparks should use the Lesser Potion on weemad Tonight, RIGHT NOW

maybe an Investigator will try to look at wee after this Night-time Gossip claim; WE CAN POSSIBLY SABOTAGE THAT RESULT

 

[Blargonaut]

WHATEVER I'LL DO IT NOW OR NEVER

Sparks -> SHARE LESSER POTION WITH: weemadarthur

 

[Fanto]

Commands received.

 

[Hedin]

Sparks: Kill: Lone_Prodigy

Getting too close to the wire to wait longer.

 

[Blargonaut]

WAIT WE COULD'VE USED THE POTION ON ONE OF US INSTEAD

MAYBE I SHOULD USE IT ON AELEUS TO SAVE YOU??

 

[Fanto]

Sparks: Kill: Lone_Prodigy

Getting too close to the wire to wait longer.

I was counting Blarg's posts above for these as well btw:

Sparks -> KILL: Lone_Prodigy

Sparks -> SHARE LESSER POTION WITH: weemadarthur

 

[Hedin]

I was counting Blarg's posts above for these as well btw:

So just to confirm since it's getting a little messy, we are confirmed for the Easy Update, Kill, and potion right?

 

[Fanto]

So just to confirm since it's getting a little messy, we are confirmed for the Easy Update, Kill, and potion right?

Yes. Easy Update is in, Sparks is killing LP, and Sparks is using the potion on Wee. Those are the actions I have down as of now.

 

[Blargonaut]

ahhhh offense Frame weemad or defense Alignment-switch Ael?????

 

[Hedin]

Cool, thanks.

I think with the potion of A vs wee it's a little WIFOM.

 

[Hedin]

Monkey did notice wee had been crumbling, I don't know if that would make it likely a cop picked on it and wanted to check or not.

 

[Aeleus]

I'm going to log off for the night now so I can have some rest and come back refreshed but currently I'm really considering subbing out.

Some questions in the meantime
A) If I sub out should I try to sort out the weemad thing first, she's been ignoring certain parts of what I've said in the gossip chat and misrepresenting others in order to get this read out but I'm also really upset at her for other reasons which might just make my replacement look worse.
B) Should I do the neutral claim? I realize it's reducing our chance at winning but currently it's the only thing which could lead to me having fun in the game, but how do yall feel my sub would feel if they were dropped into that?

Really sorry about putting this on you guys but I felt it would be unfair to not include you all in the decision

Go team \o/

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

so we do have dead townies right?

 

[Hedin]

I don't really know what may be going on with you and wee (and it ain't my business) but I think calling them out about game stuff might sow a little bit of distrust that way as long as you think that call out is relevant.

I think for the fake claim if that's what you need to have fun then go have fun. Just because I am risk adverse I don't want to get in the way of anything that prevents enjoyment from anyone else. I do think if you do replace out then it might put your replacement in a tough spot.

 

[Hedin]

so we do have dead townies right?

Hawthorn
Nin
LP (I was wrong about the doubling)

 

[Blargonaut]

sorry to hear that Ael :( It's okay if you have to sub out, don't suffer for this game

I can't be certain how any replacement would handle picking up your Neutral-claim if you do it; some players thrive in the chance to be creative with a cover story, but others may be frozen in fear about speaking anymore because of the risk of possible story continuity inconsistency...

Game's supposed to be enjoyed so go for it if you want; best offense is defensive offense yeah

Maybe it'll throw wee off so much to the point of tunnelling against you in the midst of being in a Thunderdome, which would look mighty desperate and desperation's a real scum-tell

 

[Hedin]

OK I want to keep track of these so we don't miss anything. Known town roles:

Wee - gossip
Turmoil - gossip hunter hybrid?
Chugg - house money generator

Did I miss any and does anyone have thoughts on any potential abilities? I feel like Kyan might have something.

 

[Blargonaut]

ATP claiming as Alignment Investigator, Post #2923

P E R F E C T

now all i have to do is lure him into Investigating Godfather!me then publicly announce it, and we're SET FOR LIFE

 

[Blargonaut]

now to foment a further air of aloof mystery about myself

 

[Hedin]

He did say that his role cost money to use? Should one of us funnel a little bit of money to him?

 

[Aeleus]

Hey cold blooded from the future, if you see this message then that means our memories must have been wiped during the easy update.

Somethings to note:
-I think chuggs is Don, so that's why I shaded him a bunch in D1 to possibly set up the yakuza claim, I switched to town reading him after faddy flipped because I realized it'd be near impossible to get him lunched so instead wanted to go for my second win condition.
-Another possible yakuza mechanic is needing to spend don bucks to get a don cop shot, I didn't use them night 1 because I'm pretty sure who don is and want to get the $ required to win.
-I've haven't left any breadcrumbs but you can pretend I let you know I had but didn't tell you where they were to be a tease :P

Good luck \o/

 

[Aeleus]

Also nothing I said about wee was a lie FYI

 

[Hedin]

Wow, Maol has us all in his read list.

 

[Blargonaut]

Lucky guesses, I'm sure nobody will listen to Maol

 

[Blargonaut]

We'll be perfectly fine

 

[Blargonaut]

He did say that his role cost money to use? Should one of us funnel a little bit of money to him?

might be too forwards, let it happen naturally from someone else first IMO

 

[Verelios]

It's a me, Vereasy.

 

[Blargonaut]

I guess we're Allies

 

[Verelios]

Of Destiny

 

[Blargonaut]

fuckin' hell, post #3369 by Dr. Monkey is also the entire scum team

We got this

 

[Verelios]

Super shot today peeps. You say the word, I say EASY.

 

[Hedin]

Hmmm...will Fanto bring the hammer down on Chugg?

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

eggs und ham

 

[Verelios]

Nope, would be great to get Chuggs out this early though. Buy 1 get 1 free, haha.

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

@Verelios we need you to vote lmao

 

[Verelios]

They hammered before I could even catch up bro. At least 15 hours left of the 48 hour day too.

 

[Blargonaut]

boo I wanted to see DBSM

 

[Verelios]

Who do you guys want me to hit, I'll trust your judgement on this.

 

[Verelios]

I can smell Salva's lies from here. He's getting a gamecube party ready and we weren't invited.

 

[Hedin]

Man it's been nice to have a proper night phase. Damn that N64.

What is everyone thinking about for the kill? Should we go after one of the dome contestants with the idea to try to keep information as low as possible or elsewhere? Monkey might be hard to take unless we can ID and block any doc or bodyguard.

 

[Verelios]

I got a strong shot tonight, so unless there's another redirector, I can hit them.

 

[Hedin]

That is true, you have some suspicion on you because of A so you could be watched so if we want to use that we would just need to be sure the target is worth the risk.

 

[Verelios]

Yeah, that's true. Can you guys sum up the basic argument against A?

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

I'd take out wee

 

[Blargonaut]

gah! sry haven't been around as much as I'd like, past week's been busy and on it goes

Ok so I was thinking hitting in the low-middle range of Post Count again to continue to keep them mentally drained with high posters. But Dr. M and Maol seem to have the scum team figured out, weemad isn't being scum-read, Fat claimed a PR...

I'm thinking offing either Launchpad or weemad

If we off wee, Vere can at least resolve the wee-Ael situation without any further interference/clarification/challenge from wee, and I think most ppl will eventually accept Vere as Town-ish due to that new replacement-ness, and move on after some final sniping reads against Aeleus

Launch seems a relatively out-there kill to happen right now; he's fairly active/contributing so IMO it'd be a solid anti-Town hit, but I'll admit I haven't gone to check back what his last reads were so dunno if he's been one that's on to us or not recently.

so....

OPTIONS:​

​

Mr. Hedin -> NINJA-KILL: ???​

or​

Verelios -> STRONG-KILL: ???​

or​

Sparks -> (NEXUS) KILL: ???​

 

[Blargonaut]

I think either Vere STRONG-KILLS weemad, or have Sparks (NEXUS) KILL Launchpad

and also, can we get a pocket change check? How much money do you all still have?? I sitll have $0.00

Any items we may think will help rn?

 

[Verelios]

I have 1500, so starting capital.

 

[Verelios]

If we think I'm close to the fire then I can spring for a potion, or the switch.

 

[Blargonaut]

$1000 - Greater Potion

: Use the command Share Greater Potion With: <Player Name> at night to hypnotize your target into saying the name of their role the next day. You can only use this command once.

$1500 - Cursed Amulet: Use the command Curse: <Player A>, <Player B> at night to cause any actions performed by Player A to instead be performed by Player B, and vice versa. You can only use this command once.

I just realised, we can use this CURSED AMULET to make a Town kill someone for us; e.g., we use it on our executioner Tonight and someone else, that Townsperson will do the kill instead of our player

 

[Blargonaut]

I'd really like to save for the last 2 $4000 or $5000 items for myself, but dunno if I'll come into Don Bucks ever again

If none of you feel like the higher-priced items are worth it, one of you could buy the CURSED AMULET for $1500

Then we'll use it on Fat4All and our own killer Tonight; to have Fat kill our target, and our killer will do whatever Fat would do Tonight

OR... we could use it on AllThingsPurple (who claimed Detective)... so ATP will kill, and our own would-be killer would do an Alignment Investigation of someone... (how this would be positive utility for us as Mafia is hmmm though.) ((if we had the HYPER STRIKE to scrub ATP's Role PM upon death, then one of us accuse him as having Watched him kill someone after we used the CURSED AMULET on him to have made him actually do it))

but I need ATP to Investigate me to clear me as Town!Godfather, so...

 

[Hedin]

ATP also has no cash to buy another shot supposedly.

I'm at 1500, I would also like to get up to be able to afford the big ones but I don't know how likely it will be. I'm trying to reason out what benefit we would get from switching Fat, I think it only works well is if we know he would be checked. The potion might be useful though.

I would go with wee or Pancakes.

 

[Blargonaut]

I think our consensus is weemad Tonight then?

Who will do the deed?

I nominate Sparks again because his NEXUS thing prevents him from being interfered with, but if Vereleus you want to do the STRONG-KILL in honour of your predecessor you can totes do so np

 

[Blargonaut]

Looks like the Night-kill is the only thing we can/will do Tonight.

unless we POTION or AMULET somebody at the expense of Don $$$.

 

[Verelios]

I think our consensus is weemad Tonight then?

Who will do the deed?

I nominate Sparks again because his NEXUS thing prevents him from being interfered with, but if Vereleus you want to do the STRONG-KILL in honour of your predecessor you can totes do so np

I've read through D2 but I don't know the relationship web of D1 enough to say that's a good idea. Who were A's supporters/detractors?

 

[Nomad Sparkster]

I would be up for a wee lunch
