Well since all except two had already voted for one of the two at the time of the announcement I have to say, wtf are you on about.

loving tell me about it

This is a pretty clear case of a player having a really fun ability that they want to use before they die, and deploying it just for fun. But that explanation is too straightforward for mafia, it must be a reverse double miller bluff, now with added lightning rod

In case of night death, busb for misdirection, birdstrike for the bs post on mith, mith for her votes yesterday, gwyn for being hella suss.

Misdirection from my theory being correct there was a lightning rod? laffo
Given the information i had everything i posted made sense, except i made an error that kat picked up regarding the double target redirection thing though, that was my bad. But at least Kat knows her own alignment now right?

Oh you reckon? I thought maybe Gaspy put it in to let people set their votes before bed but that's maybe because I'm thinking a lot about bed right now.

Misdirection about all actions coming back successful in the case of a lightning rod. Basically setting up the lynch on WMB.

Scum predicting a lightning rod.

Hai guys, why didn't any of our amazing powers work last night? That sure is loving weird. What could the cause of that be (googles)...

Literally the only people that could get that information in the time you got it, would be collaborators.

Nah, go have a look at ken's post, it is pretty identical to what I had to do when I had the gladiator ability, which is what allows one player to challenge another such that all other candidates are excluded. I can't imagine Gaspy intervening like this on his own initiative

A lot of us are in a 90+ player mafia game where a town lightning rod was used Night 1. It is fresh in our memories.

I know you are sick of mechanic talk but it was genuinely used to start the ball rolling:

busb posted:

You're right I only ever dismissed the lightning rod when someone proved it couldn't be possible. If more than one targeted ability with different success or failures then there is no rod or soag is lying. I don't think he's lying, so i'm going to deduce that there wasn't a rod.

No joke i don't see what you're on about here but either vote me if you think i'm lying about my action or lets move on.

busb posted:


No then the roleblocker would target the lightning rod too, but the LR would go before the roleblock so the roleblock would be 'successful' even though the LR action has already occured.

Anyway what we're really arguing here is that Soag attempted the nightkill was told he failed, right?

If he were scum and worked out a lightning rod he could have got you to reveal yourself by getting miffed about the missing investigation.

Please point out the lie because i honestly dont see it - a vig would return, theoretically, the same result as the scum NK action. I am pretty over today maybe we should just kill them both and go at tomorrow fresh because this is going to be a huge loving distraction all game long now.
