Spectator Thread Every day they're out there making duck puns

Launch with a killer reads list just now. This comes at a good time, I'm not sure Zeke can bruteforce Bojack through today after Kyan so if they can start looking elsewhere, town could be cooking. I respect LP's hustle though, every time he gives thoughts he suggests like 4 to 6 people that could be scum then just leaves everyone else to home in on a name lol even Sneek's absolute refusal to let go of the Malus suspicion seems like it's getting it's hooks in there.

Kind of a shame to see WSD just whatever Launch like that, I thought this post/these bullets:

While I'm not convinced you're town, I can understand the frustration of not knowing how to contribute to solving (or look like it convincingly). Let me ask a few questions that might shake some things loose:
  • What have these three players done to help/hurt town?
  • Do you see them solving?
  • How much have they contributed to the game?
  • How do you feel like they're reacting to certain role claims or player flips?
  • Do you feel like they turn up for certain periods of time then disappear at others? What are those times?
  • How were their interactions with now confirmed scum?
This is what you ought to be chasing, rather than arguments about flavor.


Were really solid and really nice outreach to someone struggling to figure out reads. Hopefully something he can home back in on post game and carry forward.

LP gonna bus?

It's been quiet in here today but I think Launch,Ephi, Saw and Bojack have put in some killer effort regardless of how accurate their reads have been or not, just some really great indeoth attempts at solving. Wee quickly made an impact, will be interesting in the next day phase.

Ooh just saw the flip, feel like that might be game. Interesting that LP didn't go onto HP there, I think he was sus on HP so it wouldn't be hard to justify.

Wonder if LP will concede or if he's planning a scum + neutral gambit (get Launch + EC + ?? Towny to final 4?) If he does give up, hope he knocks out EC since Launch deserves the win here.

Aaaand they got malus. Only 1 scum and 1 neutral left now.

LP is killing someone interesting tonight, I'm curious to see what's going to happen with that :p

I'll explain my reasons later
Nice to see Malus go! And that was a good bus by LP, even though he had to be tagged for it. I still think he could make it all the way. Especially now that he only has two threads to keep track of (it is funny to think of LP juggling posting in three different threads).

Poor Wee ... been there.

Yeah, I definitely dont think LP is in concede territory. With the right night kills, if he can gain trust in the woodchuck chat and make way for them working as a unit/carrying a loud voice in the thread I think there is a version of this game where he makes it to end game. Maybe harder to imagine Zeke and Ephi picking LP over the other.

I have no idea who I would kill right now lol or what the smart play would be. Maybe you kill EC and have Launch exit the game since the money is no longer beneficial to scum and Launch is pretty much playing big townie and has been pretty dead on despite being neutral lol maybe you do just break the woodchucks up now since that being the final three isn't very favourable to LP. Also isn't town going to wonder eventually why the private chat hasn't been disabled by scum? Haha

that outcome works better for Launch too. LOL The longer the game runs the better his chances of actually winning. If last scum gets caught then game continues and he will probably be voted out because they think he's the final scum. :ghostblush:

I think based purely on woodchuck chat that Sneeks is going to be the main person pushed if Zeke gets his way. We'll see if the rest of the players agree, but it def feels like we may have a few misvote days before town finally decides to fully check LP lol

Neighbor chat was always gonna push Sneeks after malus.
town!malus - blocked Sneeks, the killer
scum!malus - working with Sneeks to fake a no kill.

BoJack makes it interesting, i think they'd need to push BoJack + Sneeks + malus to make sense of the claims.

Played well enough and knew enough of the lore to be a night kill, woo!
And because I self-watched, I know who killed me.
Well done for making it so far! This was a great game for you to be in with the heavy flavour solving haha

Are you scum?
My money being transferred to Gladstone certainly isn't a twist I saw coming, but, again, it fits within the lore of him being a lucky bastard.

Gladstone is actually second in line. It goes Donald, Gladstone, Huey, Dewey and Louie. After that, the possessions would just transfer to the scum team.

I couldn't have Glomgold winning automatically when Scrooge died because it would be too easy, but it's a huge advantage for him because other people can inherit the money, but they can't get more money, so Glomgold just has to catch up now. It happened maybe a little too late though :p

Don't think Ephi is being charitable enough towards HP (Sneeks as well to a lesser degree). It absolutely sucks as town when you know you are town and know no matter what you do you are going to be voted out. That's one thing that we need to be better recognizing in the moment and figure out ways to approach it.

So I haven't been reading a ton but have they completely ruled out a godfather because that's the easiest solution to Sneek's "why didn't they block the cop yet" question.
From what I've seen about half of remaining town is pretty open to the idea of a godfather, but it's not their top scum pick

I feel like HP felt doomed earlier than he was, which is a shame since it kinda took him out of the game. I do think it says something that the days where town got a best result had multiple competing wagons. Short of a red check / open wolf, it's probably always worth it to create some discussion on a runner up or if X is town scum.

Totally agree with this. Given that he's not open wolfing or conceding it probably should be warning bells right now that he hasn't done either but wants to hurry the vote up. Its tough in the game though, and on paper it makes sense to want to clear that slot since he kind of threw the towel in a few days ago and hasn't done much because he thinks he's been done for a few day phases. It just doesn't speak to the actual human in front of them unfortunately which I think Hedin is getting at a bit.

It'll probably be worth town asking themselves after the game why morale has felt so low at times (maybe even on the whole) when they basically came out the gate extremely strongly and have a huge amount of leeway regardless of how many scum are left.

Woodchucks being the final 3 would be pretty funny.
I kind of hope this happens (partly since it means the game goes on long enough for Launch to win). It'd amazing if LP would somehow convince Ephi and Zeke to turn on each other then. XD

However, they are both suspect about LP I'm not sure he could risk it.

VA humored it :D
Hiiiiiiii
Hey HP \o/ Congrats on being free. Your streak may also be in tact if town can get LP :D

Wait, I was right? Fuck
Also I probably deserve it for Star Trek but if that's how I can expect every game I play to go from now on then I'm just not prepared to take part anymore.

Sad to hear you had a negative play experience HP. Your username is a nice reminder of the superiority of brown sauce to other condiments and I enjoyed playing with you those early days.
If you do end up taking a break, I'll keep rooting for town so you can hold onto that streak
 

HPSauce

Wait, I was right? Fuck
Yeah no I'm not done I was just a bit stressed out last night. I do think I'll take a break for a bit though. I think town have played really well so far in this game, it caught me off guard a bit lol. I'm glad I wasn't scum this time because people have been really on point.

Thanks for the game Leo! I thought my role was really cool.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! That role was one of my darlings, scum seemed pretty set on killing you N2 for a moment and I was desperate not knowing what I would do with my life and all that wasted flavor lol

For sure, D1 was probably the best D1 I've seen town have in a game.

I'm sure once this next day starts, everyone will take a step back and reflect on the choices they made, and how to avoid making those same choices again.
Nah, they'll just vote out wee next.
Honestly if I even get mentioned again I'll be surprised lol.

LOL and here you were hoping at sign ups you'd be scum. :laughing:See how town can actually turn it around sometimes :D

For woodchuck to kill woodchuck— that’s cold blooded! Cold blooded enough to make me start rooting for LP just because of the gumption, sorry Ephi. Definitely going to shake things up.

Would be hilarious if I planted the seed in everyone's head early on that Glomgold is a scum character, and they vote Launch out today because of it.

All actions targeting you tonight (nk) go to Dewey? With fate being the real target if LP was going for the 2 for 1?
How do the Gladstone events work btw? Is it pre determined or do you roll from a list?

We roll a number from 1-10 and pick the event from a list every night. I'm posting the list since only Fate had access to that flavor, but I'm keeping one secret since it might still affect the game significantly :spy:

1- Daisy accepted going on a date with you! Maybe you should bring her some flowers…? Nah, nevermind, I’m sure you will run into some roses and tulips just waiting to be picked on your way!

Your cousin Donald got so depressed with jealousy that they won't be able to vote today.

Donald Duck will get the following message on the next day: “Oh, no! Your nasty cousin Gladstone went out on a date with Daisy! What’s his big idea? This is too big a stab in your poor feathered heart, you don’t feel like getting out of bed today…

You are too depressed now, and won't be able to vote today."

2- You got nominated as the Duckburg Citizen of the Year! It's good to know those pheasants… I mean, peasants are finally recognizing you for the distinguished gander you are.

Today, and only today, you can enter the command Hello, Peasants! in the game thread to modconfirm you as Gladstone Gander (your alignment won't be revealed).

3- A Hollywood agent just called and told you you got cast for playing the leading role in the upcoming blockbuster, "Duck Avenger vs. Goosezilla"! You don't really remember auditioning for it, but it's only natural that they recognized your talent.

You will be too busy with the shootings, so you won't be able to vote today.

4- You were walking in the neighborhood, just minding your own business, when the TV people came and asked you for an interview! They wanted to know your opinion on the murders that have been happening, and of course you did your civic duty and shared some of your brilliant theories with the public. They should appreciate it!

You can put a double vote today by entering the command Double: <Player> in the game thread.

5- You just got a call from someone saying you won the lawsuit and are going to inherit the fortune of Sir Quackly McDuck! You didn't even hire a lawyer, Uncle Scrooge must be furious! Oh, well, sucks to be him!

Scrooge's night action didn't work last night.

Scrooge will get the following message on the next day: "Blast me bagpipes! Your nephew Gladstone won the lawsuit and is going to inherit all of Sir Quackly McDuck's fortune, including a castle in Scotland that was supposed to be yours! That hackit-faced eejit didn't even have a lawyer, how did that happen?

You were too infuriated to do anything last night, so your night action has failed."

6- It seems all of your mail got exchanged with someone else's? Apparently, they had ordered a vacuum cleaner, just when you needed a new one! Finders keepers!

All of the night actions that targeted you last night were redirected to someone else.


7- The Duckburg Times ran a prize draw for a trip to the Canary Islands and you were the winner! That's funny, you don't even have a subscription for the paper… Oh, well, pack your bags and don't forget to bring your best swimsuit*.

*Trunks or any lower body attire are completely optional.

None of the night actions that targeted you last night worked.

8- By Mother Goose’s feathers! You called the plumber to check the pipes in your backyard and they ended up finding petroleum! Right there, in your property! What are the chances? The Gladstone chances, of course!

Nothing of importance has happened.

9- You found a lottery ticket on the sidewalk the other day and guess what? It won you the prize money of 1 quackillion dollars this morning! You, sir, are a rich gander now! Uncle Scrooge better watch out, or you will end up buying his property!

All the stealing actions were redirected to you last night.

Now Launch is two kills away from the victory: Fate and Zeke. That or he wins with the money on D10.

Yo I think I did okay with this prediction haha he did EC then the woodchucks. No idea where he goes from here. Probably tries to get behind Zeke?

I just stumbled into his way, he wasn't aiming for me.

I would like to briefly say that I wrote several different responses to the tinfoil post LP made in woodchuck chat overnight. I was just going to say no and explain why, but hesitated because I thought maybe I'd be better off engaging -- not because I was considering it but because I was suddenly interested in what he'd say, only to find that trying to phrase that so I didn't sound potentially incredibly dodgy to Zeke seemed tricky. So then I debated just asking him to please elaborate, just to see what he'd follow up with. In the end I decided to say nothing and resolved to just come into the thread today and tell them that was a thing he was doing. But then I was dead

I really, really regret not making better use of the chat during the night, but it's hard when you don't really trust one of them and can't work out how justified it is (and it's kinda your fault because you pushed for that invite).

I tried really hard to be more open in the main thread this time. It's so difficult x_x

Oooh I see it was a redirect now lol just catching up. I guess he does want Launch out of the game. And don't worry about it! You threw some incredible effort in for where you dropped into the game, and it's always that much easier to see and/or second guess what you could or should have done once you're out of the game. You did a good job Eph :salute:

Didn't say anything the first time I saw it, but now that someone quoted it, wee going "EC has never looked town in his life" is hilarious since this game is the towniest I have ever looked.
 

Ephidel

How do you do, fellow mafia?
In our chat we've kinda been operating under the worst case assumption there are two left, not one. That means we've been juggling more than enough suspicion to chuck at multiple people.

I'm finding it a little painful watching them point fingers at each other over a list trying to find the missing item while Malus is on the list though.

No don't ask for my last reads, that's a sensible question, but I didn't actually post anything more before actions locked so all that's there from yesterday is my very boring POE for Bo/Sneeks/LP/Wee

What actually happened was that Haw was blocked on the same night she was killed, simple as that lol no one got that item
