"Let me get this straight..."
Did Gaspy clear TOML or just vouch for him?

I will say;TOML has consistently been on the Anidav lynch train (as have i except for the time gaspy doubted toml) since day one.

Which is encouraging.

No, I think he used his ability on TOML. I think he is assuming that Hiipfire wouldn't have come out swinging protecting TOML unless he Hiipfire was town. Scum would have just sat back and laughed as TOML was lynched.

gently caress - I missed the part where he couldn't target the same person twice. I thought he could only not use the same power twice

Oh, I have a character list too, since people might notice there are only 2 characters left and much fewer than 13 have said who they are.

I realised a while ago the Mod Flavour on Day Actions reveals your character even if you haven't outright claimed.

I'm surprised the serial killer didn't use that. Although, I guess, Animes. I look like a dude.

Yeah. We should still settle List 2 first, IMO, although if it becomes easier as the day progresses to spot between yourself or Bird we can go that way.


If Hiip wasn't playing for the scum team when he protected TOML by stating his Role PM success, which means TOML did have a successful night action and was also not trackable, which IMO lends closer to Ninja as a targeted ability "I target X to read their PM" should be vulnerable to bus.

Scum:
ONE OF Birdstrike, Freudian Slip, HiipFire, bowmore
?ONE? OF Gwyn, TOML, Kat

Gwyn has demonstrated TRUTHBULLET D3 on Anidav
TOML has claimed Even-Night Doctor N2 Bowmore N4 Kat
Kat has claimed Guard N1 TOML N2 BLOCKED N3 Gaspy N4 Bowmore

Birdstrike has demonstrated/claimed NOTHING
Hiipfire has claimed Night Action Surveyor was likely investigated Clean by the Cop
FS has claimed MONDO BIKER GANG LEADER highly situational ability (have we hit it yet?)
Bowmore has demonstrated HACK/SENSOR which makes him almost confirmed town.

Of the unclaimed characters we have:
Sayaka Pop Sensation
Byakuya Affluent

Basically, he was the person I was most sure was scum. In other games I don't really do the day one anidav thing, but I was doing it this time and most other days because of instinct I suppose. I figure if I bullet someone and they visited someone who was now deceased or someone who knew they got blocked then it might help the eliminations, doubly so if it cleared me at the same time. In the end I wasted it.

Well intentioned idiot, as usual.

I am probably not allowed to say this since I am on the bottom list but I'd really like to consider the top list instead of doubling down on us.

If we acknowledge Bowmore and Hiip as town because of their actions and the probable cop respectively our strike rate is 1/2 on the top list versus 1/3 on the bottom list.

ALSO. I feel like Byakuya might be a Survivor, 4P? Maybe not, but just a thought.

If BS is scum and we lynch him, it completely clears the rest of the Bif lynchers.

It's an odd situation we're in,really. Very close. Very tense. We're not sure who to lynch, but at the same time, through process of elimination, the scum team don't have many safe people to kill in either group. Could still go either way. I'm managing to stay interested even with Gaspy out of the picture, which is rare for mafia.

Full disclosure, even though I've hinted at it. I am lynchproof.

If two town vote for me, two scum will be able to pile on. The day will end. I won't flip, still and the scum will get a chance to do some nightkilling after the town has achieved absolutely nothing.

I wouldn't mind being lynched were I not lynchproof. I'd die, flip then whoever of Kat or TOML is actually town could be 100% certain of the other. And it's not like I'm that useful anyways.

But in this case? Really would just be a waste.

So much BS on BS, and look it's Kat behind it all again. She conveniently ignores my calling out of Anidav yesterday because it implicates her.

This is where if I was scum I would claim that I'm the bus driver, conveniently answering so many questions. But I'm not. My night action is to boost the effectiveness of another player's action by cheering them on through the power of the best pop singing voice you've ever heard.

I honestly have no idea how exactly it helps, but apparently it does. I used it on Beet N1, TOML N2, Gaspy N3 and TOML again last night.

I wanted to make double sure Guard worked the way I thought it did because of Gaspy's freak out where he thought maybe he could clear me.

Call it a one-way-Jail or a reverse role block. I reckon this pop song is a scum enable to get past my Guard.

I still don't buy Junko as First Aid either. Every single thing everybody has done maps out to their character's traits. Junko/Mukuro the mystery 16th student is a twinsie accessory-changing shapeshifter and I still think TOML is a scum team ninja.

i buy the first part of this post but not the second. i don't buy the second part for two reasons:

1) the OP says flavour is unrelated to alignment (which, i know, doesn't mean the same as flavour being unrelated to power/role)

2) i don't know anything about this flavour so i can't really back you up

i would be happy to vote birdstrike today and vote gwyn tomorrow.

birdstrike's role is really weird and he is super late to claim it, and as kat says it does make sense as a scum boost

gwyn was trying to lynch either me or hiip at the start of the day. when kat and i showed how hiip was probably town, gwyn backed off immediately and started cosying up to me. his use of the truthbullet plays like something the scum agreed to do, and his claim today is bizarre, probably bullshit, and really badly timed.

so yeah, birdstrike today and gwyn tomorrow anyone?
