You just called Sal out for making a similar post to this.

"Don't end the day early" = "Wish we'd hear from more people"

Potentially. Solus reworked the game down from 22 to 12?

I'd go out on a limb and hazard a guess at 2 scum + 1-2 3P.

One other thing I would like to throw out. I understand that this end day early thing might be 1 shot or every other day so throwing votes out willy nilly might not be the best idea.

P sure that was an OP scum ability

Tobbs Gnawed posted:

Y are you not immediately thinking it was scum who offed 3 townies? Feigned innocence?

Conversely, if anyone is town and wants to own up to being the one who's responsible for that moronic usage of a day ability, I can probably help make things better.

These are the people who posted prior to the end of D1:
toalpaz (flipped town)
gulag
yami (flipped town)
imgay (flipped town)
tobbs
asf (voted)
icephoenix (voted)
sal

While it's certainly viable that it was someone who DIDN'T post and simply hit the big red button, I think the two living voters are the most suspect but would not ignore gulag/tobbs/sal. (That being said, I strongly feel that Sal would not blow this kind of power instantly on D1 especially after what went down in the CYOR game recently.)

Suss on IP for dropping the 3rd single vote before ability use. Also doesn't he have heart? If he's town why not kill him?

It was ASF that dropped the third vote.

I did some thinking over the IcePhoenix dilemma, and either he's scum holding the heart or he's town that got protected last night. I'm not sure there's a great way to resolve that particular dilemma without a protective role claiming, and that feels like a bad idea right now.

K re-explaining

Above post looks fake to me. Was pretty obvious it was a scum masterplay.

Having 3 townies flip D1 with practically no info fucks us pretty bad, so coming in with upbeat commentary like this rings false.

Like, I saw those flips and was thinking "gently caress, we're hosed already." Townie holding heart dead, heart being held by A) scum or B) town who scum knows has it is the worst thing, literally.

Happy to put my vote where my mouth is.

##vote Sal

And would love to hear from people who haven't chimed in yet.

Strongly disagree with this, Sal plays emotionally rather than logically and you're reading too much into it as you usually do. Don't get hung up on what you think is a crazy gotcha when it's his first post of the day.

Gonna claim this since the masonry rotated last night: I am in an unconfirmed masonry known as "best friends" (which is not mentioned at all in my role PM). Day 1 it was me, Yami, Icephoenix, and b-minus. Content was largely nothingburger, other than b-minus engaging in what I had come to believe was his usual townie crackpot theorizing. Yami is still able to talk in the masonry even though he's dead, for reasons unknown (but mod-confirmed as allowed), and if you look back at his flip it does kind of indicate that in a subtle fashion. Nobody has claimed responsibility for this masonry. The members of the masonry rotated overnight - I'm now in there with Gulag, Tobbs, and Yami (still). No conversation yet today.

The reason I bring it up is that I think b-minus would have said something in the masonry if he was going to go for the sacrifice play, and he didn't.

Yikes this is a bad post.

The mod specifically said this:

SolusLunes posted:

The sky suddenly darkens, the sun replaced with the moon.

The day has been cut short by anomalous power.

Flips incoming, flavor to follow.

Clearly indicating someone used an ability that instantly ended the day. 3 people had 1 vote each, and it's plurality voting, so all three were plurality hung.

SolusLunes posted:

There are a few rules: The team who controls the Heart at the end of the game, wins.
This game will last for four days and four nights, no longer.
Lynches are conducted by majority vote- but if a majority is not reached by the end of the day, there will be a plurality lynch. If there is a tie, there will be multiple plurality lynches for anyone tied at the top.
If the player holding the Heart is lynched, it will be randomly distributed among the players who voted for the Heart.
If the player holding the Heart is nightkilled, it will be given to the player who conducted the kill.
If the Heart is shattered... well, don't do that. Trust me.

Admittedly this doesn't specifically say that the heart distribution would be public, but also when there's exactly one vote on the person with the heart who gets executed, it's not rocket science.

They could both be scum, I had some thoughts about setup predicting alignment but they went nowhere.

Heart was hidden AFAIK. The vote chain-lynch and heart movement were separate, but very lucky for scum.

You read b- flip closely enough to notice he could have drawn the kill to himself, but you missed that?

Yes. I felt IP's vote was a D1 joke vote. I mean they were talking some bullshit about cheesecake. Suddenly right after IP's vote, ASF swoops in (literally a minute later) and then 7 minutes later the day is over. I believe that scum were coordinating when to use the "day ends early" ability to maximum efficiency and seeing 3 votes on town players (and thus 3 dead town players) was the ultimate way to do it.

So you think ASF had a joke vote saved and constantly refreshed the page so he could post it within a minute of another joke vote?

Within a minute is practically simultaneous. You can't believe what you're saying.

What makes ASF's vote less of a joke vote than IP's? They both functionally took place at the exact same time (within a minute as you point out) and the day did indeed end seven minutes later.

On the topic of scum coordinating, what do you think of Birdstrike pushing so hard across multiple posts today to get us to vote ASF instead of IP? I quoted them for convenience.
