[San Franpsycho]

If that's Salva (and it could be), I'm thinking about how he fucked off and then came in and won Costume Party.

Still have 30 minutes to change if we want to change.

KILL: HYDE MONSTER

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Maybe we'll get lucky and they're secret lovers instead.

 

[San Franpsycho]

That would be so great.

 

[Woodsman]

Lol, one can only hope.

 

[San Franpsycho]

gl gl gl gl

 

[Aeleus]

Command Received

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Psst Ael - on a scale from 1 to OH NOOOO how fucked are we

 

[Aeleus]

Captain Skunkbeard was A Wild Ambulance Appears, Vanilla Town

 

[Aeleus]

Psst Ael - on a scale from 1 to OH NOOOO how fucked are we

I think you'll be happy about the beginning of the day at least

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

At least we can put that concern aside

 

[San Franpsycho]

whew, okay. Not a bad start. Operation RIGHT THIS BOAT is a go.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Also I forgot to mention, but we probably NEED the arsonist to light everyone on fire to have a chance here, so we probably don't NK the doused people and hope the arsonist just has to kill X to win and that X ends up not including us lol

 

[Aeleus]

oh sorry that was meant to go to the other scum team, you guys all got killed by the ninja arsonist, sorry for the mix up

 

[San Franpsycho]

Also I forgot to mention, but we probably NEED the arsonist to light everyone on fire to have a chance here, so we probably don't NK the doused people and hope the arsonist just has to kill X to win and that X ends up not including us lol

i am really hoping they needed three and ignite tomorrow - or even tonight and someone just didn't report n1

 

[San Franpsycho]

oh sorry that was meant to go to the other scum team, you guys all got killed by the ninja arsonist, sorry for the mix up

I will go into all your games on OM and wipe your spreadsheets, i swear to god

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

oh sorry that was meant to go to the other scum team, you guys all got killed by the ninja arsonist, sorry for the mix up

Well, at least we got put out of our misery then

 

[San Franpsycho]

thank you for attempting to murder me, Nat, malus
it's what true friends do for each other

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Say hi to Chuggs for me when we murder you

 

[San Franpsycho]

I will.

I have prepared my opener on Woodsman. We are as ready as we are gonna get.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Shit yeah, god speed our arsonist friend. I hope even if we fail you get to fly free and true.

 

[San Franpsycho]

partial ignition I guess? wow

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

partial ignition I guess? wow

Honestly makes me worry they're like a SK arsonist and have to eliminate everyone lol BUT if so - I will root for them should we meet our demise. Does mean the moment malus or I get doused we need to try and pop them if they're still alive - or QUICKLY get them voted out.

I think narrowing the pool will help. Fingers crossed, at least. today before I die I will try to find them.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

I will say, with Baba gone I almost wonder if we could have skated you by. Ghost and Neon will still be on your ass though so it probably was inevitable, just maybe not 'this phase for sure' inevitable.

 

[San Franpsycho]

You can bait me a while and we can see, but here's the thing.

If incredibly everyone jumps on malus... I look amazing and we don't do the other.
If this somehow becomes a thunderdome between me and you... the winner looks amazing.
If it goes as planned and I die... you both look amazing.

So no matter what, we should be good, right?

 

[San Franpsycho]

Snow C being all "aw you're great" is making me feel a way

Luckily tonight is D&D so I have good reason to not be here for a while and see how things go.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Yeah, I'm gonna sit on the info because that's what I would do if town. I wouldn't immediately out myself so lets just play it like we are and see what comes of it.

 

[San Franpsycho]

I confess I am sweating, since I don't think we'll hear from other Snow for a while.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Did my best to bury you, inb4 nobody buys it and I get voted out

 

[San Franpsycho]

I think when Stan, Snow G, and Neon are around, we get a different situation - so we'll see how that goes.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Jman gonna be big big mad that I gaslit him on the name thing when he sees my role lol

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Also Ael I wanna say this as an aside - the role in PR was much more hyper focused on sleuthing for a specific player and the wincon was directly tied to it. I think the situations are pretty different. This one hasn’t led to the level of stalker Faddy’s made him go lol Don’t want you thinking I’m trashing your design, I’m just spreading misinformation.

 

[San Franpsycho]

If no one really seems that dedicated to any of us... I can just reevaluate my Woodsman read? lol
what a weird day start

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Just deathly silence

 

[San Franpsycho]

sweatingman.gif

 

[Woodsman]

What a strange day start, Town seems absolutely directionless. But I've seen it a couple times now that Town just goes into auto pilot when they get a few Scum in a row.

 

[San Franpsycho]

Right now, probably:
9-1-3

If we get Kook and Alien out and arsonist ignites one more and leaves (best scenario in two days):
6-3

But then possibly we're still on the hook. If we want to use the track thing, we do it today, because it will seem worse if you don't, probably? If not... where do we go from here? What's the best plan?

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

If I don't do the track thing today I never do it. We would just commit to this bussing that maybe isn't even working and whichever of us flips will paint others of us in a good light, but I will say with people out here second guessing Stan who the fuck even knows anymore lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

Alternate:
I lean harder on Woodsman, I get red-checked, I die
9-1-2

Nat + Malus = clear
Arsonist takes out one more and exits
-2
one more gets voted out (Alien or some of the others who sussed me but didn't vote)
-1
6 v 2
but you're cleared, essentially

hmmm

Sticking with the plan may still be the way? Takes a little longer but is safer?

 

[San Franpsycho]

Yeah, I mean... it's really hard to figure out what's best here!

The only thing I know is that Jman is DYING to claim lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

The other thing is... while the track strat may take longer and is safer, what today has taught us is that a directionless town can probably be led. BUT--

The arsonist has to douse someone else tonight, probably. And it looks like there's no firefighter. So you may become the best target if I'm redchecked and you masterminded the flip. That's my only hesitation.

Eh, they would probably want to avoid someone they think is NK bait. I doubt myself, Stan, or Wax get doused tonight. Woodsman could happen depending on how cleared he gets from your push (assuming we go the track strat).

 

[San Franpsycho]

If you think that's the case, I lean toward suggesting we do it. It's possible we can power wolf at this point while the game is in chaos but it seems like a bigger risk.

Ugh, I really don't know.

 

[San Franpsycho]

I mean, I have a lot of town reads at the moment so... I don't know?

I'm trying to determine how much work I need to put into today lol.

 

[San Franpsycho]

I know one thing: Aeleus, somewhere, is both laughing their ass off and also sad, because I said when I died I'd help count votes.

 

[San Franpsycho]

I’ll be checking in on mobile while my computer updates if y’all have any ideas.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Sorry - been busy at work today with meetings so I couldn't multitask. Yeah, I mean.. idk. I kind of feel like maybe we just play this out with you bussing malus and me bussing you, but maybe not doing the track stuff? I don't know how much claiming the track will do for us, like I don't think me having role info to reveal is inherently better or worse than if you flip from just making a case. Reading the room I kind of feel like Alien gets tossed here, and I think it might be plausible you're now the most town read of us - though who knows. I think I'm just gonna keep tunneling and see how the day continues to play out. We have the track fake I can reveal later tonight if it starts to feel like the better play but as of right now I'm not sure it is.

 

[San Franpsycho]

That sounds reasonable to me.

I love that we constructed this elaborate fake plan and then just... put it down lol. but maybe that's the smarter play here?

I DON'T KNOW AHHHHH

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

I mean...town gonna town, I guess. Me going hard, while picking up heat can at least help you. Not sure what it does for Woodsman, but you know. Shit happens lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

I just hopefully raised some interesting points about everyone else on Woodsman (look at me solving wow) so maybe that will help malus.

 

[Aeleus]

look at me solving wow

What are you? Some kind of teenage sleuth?

 

[San Franpsycho]

It’s almost like I am! See, we are the good guys.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

I never doubted us. We're innocent here.

 

[San Franpsycho]

Now we're all wagons lol

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Flawless execution of our super bus, or something

 

[San Franpsycho]

Nothing has been flawless but by god we are gonna get SOMETHING out of today, even if it’s at great loss.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Kinda feels like big loss lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

It is not great.

gonna have to bus you, malus. would rather just be misreading you like usual :P

 

[San Franpsycho]

You're the kingmaker here, Nat. It's your choice.

I think if malus flips here, I'm better positioned, but not in a great position. We are all of us on the ropes somewhere.

If I flip here due to potential gambit, you look great, and malus looks better but this town does not seem willing to let someone go just for making wagons.

I don't think you'll flip so that's off the table.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Hmm, I’m too drunk to reread Malus and back off this read. Let me do it before day end though I do have a very busy work day. I’ll make it work though. Sorry mal. I thought this was gonna work but now it just feels like the track claim might make the situation worse for us. Idk. I think if you just focus on killing those critical of monkey she might be able to carry us. I think she has the best shot of living due to sustained activity tbh

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

But me shifting might be worse honestly. Maybe I’m best riding this ship down. Idk. Monkey I’m too drunk advise me

 

[San Franpsycho]

I really don't know. I did not want to be the one who carried the ship so I'm fretting lol. I have book deadlines coming up. But I think that's the way today has fallen out and honestly I AM SHOOK but I should know better by now than to expect anything to be what I expect.

I think you stay the course (sans track gambit) and we see what happens. It took me a while but I found what I think is a really good way to spin Kook so let's see what happens there.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

So tomorrow I throw the track claim and let you play it as you will?

 

[San Franpsycho]

The track claim is dead. Unless sentiment turns wildly in the last eight hours of the day. We can assess then. But I think there was too much against malus, which I think is really weird, because I thought his bus was good?

Let's see how things shake out and see where we around around ~6-7 hours to EoD. That would be the ideal time to do it if we were gonna anyway at this point. I would advise you to just stay away for now, no need to risk drunk posting. If malus can come in and make something else happen, glory be, but I think we just have to pivot and go with what we have. The team wins; the team is what matters.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Okay I’ll ghost for the rest of the night (even though literally Tech said it was okay to vote Ghost and Char but somehow that’s being ignored and it is KILLING ME)

 

[San Franpsycho]

we can bring it up tomorrow

 

[Aeleus]

Nat you're playing chain of memories? I couldn't take more than 10 minutes of that game before I skipped to KH2 (which I still haven't finished...)

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Nat you're playing chain of memories? I couldn't take more than 10 minutes of that game before I skipped to KH2 (which I still haven't finished...)

Yes, sadly. It's truly awful. I drunkenly agreed to play every KH game all on the hardest difficulty because CERTAIN, INCORRECT PEOPLE say how great KH2 is on the hardest setting. Why that had to morph into me playing all of them I do not recall. It is a nightmare.

 

[San Franpsycho]

you were not legally able to agree to a contract in that state
you can stop at any time
YOU DON'T WANT TO

 

[Aeleus]

I mean... are you streaming it lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

also the incorrect people are ambulance and chuggs
let's name and shame

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

You know how kind and cheerful the ones that roped me into this are! How can I say no?! D: I at least have to make it through KH2.

I mean... are you streaming it lol

Yes actually lol But sans voice because we're on a discord call

 

[San Franpsycho]

you can loop that into the stream, you noob, just git gud

 

[San Franpsycho]

ANYWAY, BACK TO BUSINESS
plans? shenanigans? what say you, friends?

 

[Woodsman]

Today would be a good day to get removed for me because I'm moving on Sunday, so Friday and Saturday will probably be very busy for me.

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

you can loop that into the stream, you noob, just git gud

When streaming directly from an Xbox?

ANYWAY, BACK TO BUSINESS
plans? shenanigans? what say you, friends?

Not sure, the votes are allll over the place. I would assume mal goes here unless we stack somewhere but that seems like it would be obvious lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

When streaming directly from an Xbox?

git gud(der equipment)

All right, malus, I will bus you into the ground and try to carry your shield to victory while you move.

mafia sucks

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

You're gonna be carrying mine after the next day phase or two as well I suspect lol

 

[San Franpsycho]

i want to lie down and dieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

 

[San Franpsycho]

I apologize for gaslighting all these people with good and accurate reads/votes.

^me, probably, at the end of this

 

[San Franpsycho]

Should I have a faux fit over being the counterwagon or should I just be chill? @Pazzo the Ghost Clown help and advice needed

 

[San Franpsycho]

someone is carrying someone's shield after today, that's for sure lol

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

But what if they swerve Kooook. Do it town.

 

[San Franpsycho]

i REALLY do not want them to unless she is really the arsonist or we replay this day all over again

 

[San Franpsycho]

today's tinfoil: Blarg is in this game but is playing it remarkably normal. and has bribed A into never revealing it somehow.

I was very upfront about how he was 30 foot shaggy

shut up or i will taunt you a second time

 

[Aeleus]

No comment

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

SWEEERVE. Give me the deciding vote on scum yessss

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Also sorry mal lol Getting to do a two vote swing tiebreaker that's gonna result in scum just feels like it'll look better than tunneling into Monkey, especially if she didn't flip exactly today. Errbody would come at me for being your teammate 100%

 

[San Franpsycho]

Yeah, it was the right call here, I think, but man this game is cuuuuuuursed for us

WE HAD SUCH A GOOD PLAN AND THEN TOWN HAD TO BE ALL WEIRD

 

[Pazzo the Ghost Clown]

Gonna need to actually fully breakdown the vote count because now it looks like maybe I was wrong and it was me piling - not sure if I misread the count or what. RIP if so, though I was probably in a bad spot either jumping on him or staying put if he flipped so whatever I guess.

 

[San Franpsycho]

nah, i think you're okay since you broke the tie at the least. or I think you did? close enough.

I love that everyone is fighting. More of this. More fighting, everyone.

 

[San Franpsycho]

good luck moving, malus. send us your spare energy while you pack and haul.
