MiR’s scum hunting today is atrocious and he has to try to discredit every post about him. It’s a good lynch.

Some teeth long for ripping, gleaming wet from black dog gums. So you keep your eyes closed at the end. You don't want to see such a mouth up close. before the bite, before its oblivion in the goring of your soft parts, the speckled lips will curl back in a whinny of excitement. You just know it.
I like hambeet better for this (what kind of a response is ‘ha ha yeah i have been worthless! good catch!” and then leaving again?) and we’re just going to have to deal with this tomorrow now, but MiR does bug me. Let’s see what happens.

HEY NONG MAN!

After a very, very, very bloody day, when presented with the option of not throwing someone else into the chasm and doing so, the town elected to throw someone into the chasm.

This time, the unlucky person was Vivat Virtue, who everyone (including the Knife) called MiR for some reason.

"Mmm! Olives" MiR said as he was hoisted. As he fell, you could hear "Do my insides look like my outsides?"

Then the giant head floating head rthat was clearly wearing a tuxedo projection appeared.

"Hi everyone! I'm made of Janet, but I'm not of Janet. I'm still plummeting, but I just wanted to say hello and remind everyone that there is nothing wrong with being a childless adult in their 40s that loves Harry Potter and makes every podcast they participate in better for being on it. Make sure to see John Wick 4 in theaters... eventually!"

The giant head disappeared. For those who had seen the show, it made sense. Others sighed as the body didn't bounce.




Vivat Virtue, Derek Hofstetler, Messenger (Town-Aligned) has been chasm'd.

MY GOD THIS DAY IS FINALLY OVER NIGHT ACTIONS PLEASE

Another day has dawned. It looks nice. You head out, seeing what the number is today. Only one less than yesterday. Not bad, Could be worse after yesterday.

Sigh, yesterday. What could have been.

Today, however, is today. And I'm sorry to say that Hambeet was found blown up again and in his bucket, but reformation would take 10,000 years. But for the sake of continuity, he had a previously stated form of damage.




Hambeet, Glenn, (Town-Aligned), had his neck snapped Night 4

Alas, poor Glenn

Very, considering we'd likely have voted him today.

So... Janets are gone and we're searching an unrelated scum group, is that the best operating assumption?

I think SK is more likely than a second scum group. HP had two 4 person scum groups and it was very hard for the town to win and it started with more people. If we've killed scum every single day and are in lylo then the balance was messed up from the beginning

gently caress it. If the town power roles won't step up then the scum won't feel pressure to lie. Town Doctor.

Night 1 - protect Tom Tucker
Night 2 - protect Liger (yes this was the night he died - my best guess is two different types of scum targeted him or some sort of juggernaut role hit him)
Night 3 - protect Deadbeat Dad
Night 4 - protect Merk

And here we are.

I got some fun flavor when my restaurant opened, but nothing else happened.

I haven't had any flavor or any other information that would suggest any of my protections have succeeded. As far as I am aware I have not been roleblocked.

Regarding the night Liger died CCKeane was killed (Varinn claimed this, I believe). Sandwolf (VT) died of a broken neck, and Liger died with the "unlovely diamonds" flavor. This was the night MIR (vivat) had his vig kill as well, so presumably he got bus-driven onto Liger or Keane or Sandwolf, or some other effect happened. If this is the case my best guess for Night 2 is there were 4 kills out there (Janet, other scum, Varinn vig, MIR vig) and two of them targeted Liger, bypassing me. This would explain the lack of a ladle kill that night.

”Wait!” someone exclaims “Surely Liger can help us out! He said that Deadbeat Dad was on our side, surely he must have some additional news!” But Liger is nowhere to be found. You check the theater, the TV station, the Broadway stage on the edge of town, but they are also missing. Checking their house reveals the answer. Liger is on their bed, lifeless, with a pile of unlovely diamonds next to him.

Are the diamonds and ladling related? I haven't finished the last season.

This was not a lie (I do find taco bell comforting and I did have it for lunch), but it was also my extremely clever breadcrumb -- the title of Gen's first appearance is "The Burrito". Honestly I cringed when it got quoted like four times in a row, I didn't want to be that obvious.

I can't be voted out, because I'm the Judge, I can't be judged. You guys can test this if you want, it won't end the day, I asked. I'm as vulnerable at night as anyone else, though.

If this is the case it's a super townie role so that's good but honestly I don't want to test it because you're so open to it and I don't want it blowing up for some reason because you're some crazy launch bomb.

"...and I'm Shawn, Dirtbags."

BANG

A shot rang out. You'd heard that noise before. Back when a different stranger pulled a pistol and shot poor Mr. Steak dead to rights.

Only this time, Hal was wielding the weapon.

"DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE CONCEPT OF DAMNATION DOES TO PEOPLE WHEN IT COMES TO THEM FORKING?... forking... fork..Ah drat, the bench of a filter is on in these Good Place neighborhoods.

Do you know what the concept of pain and torture does to the average human mind when it comes to immorality? It makes them try things that are so immoral that they just keep trying and trying and doing and doing. And I'm not talking about spreading pain and suffering, I mean pleasure. Do you know how many weird sex things humans do? Do you?

I do. I do because I count them. And for every new piece of progress humans make? They make an infinite number of new weird sex things. And I count them. Why?

Because they are there. Because beings like Shawn enabled them. And Janets enforced them. And idiots like Jason just wouldn't shut up about them for gods sake be quiet. So they must pay. Why?

For I am Matt, the Weird Sex Things Accountant."

And with that, Matt holstered his pistol, called for a train, and departed.




Tom Tucker, Shawn the Demon, Doctor, has been shot on Day 5

An Interlude, by Tom Tucker

"Shawn sighed as he popped the top of another can of “Brady’s Best Sparkling Rose”. There was, of course, no pop, the wine inside was not only flat but had a mouth feel that several sommeliers forced to drink it in The Bad Place could only somehow describe as ‘moist’, a new word in wine terminology. “No, Mark, you’re not in the bad place right now, you’re at my wine bar. I won a contest and I knew the experience for guests wouldn’t be complete without your wine.”

Mark Wahlberg’s forehead creased as he struggled to wrap his head around this new information. “But, I don’t get it…” Shawn smiled as the Southie accent washed across his body like expired molasses. “You say I’m still alive, but I also run a vineyard in Southie in The Bad Place, but I’m also…”Mark Wahlberg’s forehead creased as he struggled to wrap his head around this new information. “But, I don’t get it…” Shawn smiled as the Southie accent washed across his body like expired molasses. “You say I’m still alive, but I also run a vineyard in Southie in The Bad Place, but I’m also…”

Shawn cut him off. “Marky Mark you’re over thinking it! Southie, your vineyard, the bad place, it’s all one nexus of the most awful things in the world. The Bad Place couldn’t exist without you!” Shawn took another sip and felt his shoulders relax as something somehow grainy slid from the can down his human form’s approximation of a throat. He was so glad he had ensured he could feel such delicious discomfort.Shawn cut him off. “Marky Mark you’re over thinking it!

He was so glad he had ensured he could feel such delicious discomfort.

Mark Wahlberg’s eyes continued to dart back and forth in utter confusion. Shawn stood up and grabbed a six-pack of Belichick’s Best Hard Gatorade from behind the bar. “Just serve our guests Mark. And don’t worry, you’re a big part of a bigger plan!”

The latest from Wahlberg Vineyards, located just north of the UMass Boston sewer runoff line on the Old Harbor Embankment, it’s Brady’s Best Sparkling Rose! Every can is sealed right here in Southie by me, Mark Wahlberg, personally, and made using only the best Southie tap water from the men’s bathroom at the Stop and Shop. Located somehow in both the Bad Place and the real world simultaneously, Wahlberg vineyards represents the best and worst that both have to offer! Try the rose sommeliers forced to drink it in The Bad Place describe as “moist, but somehow crunchy” and “the beverage version of an ingrown hangnail”!
