A flavor PM at the end of the last phase says I'm coming down with a cold and the flavor of my ability references sickness. I assume the Poisoner is Pestilence flavored.

I meant the kill flavor, but now I see they all just say "killed" so that's sort of a dead end.

Not necessarily, it is also partially explained by there being no N1 kill.

Finally home from the holidays, and there's a shitload to catch up on this time.

Met posted:

spacing in vienna is just talk talk talk talk talk talk talk with the strategy and always in the discussion but hasn't been dealt with via nightkill.

Randomly: I dunno why, but I don't get NK'd a lot. I died N1 of GOP Primary mafia and that's the first time I've ever died N1.

Met posted:

I believe the Mafia kill is poison. I suspect this because I'm a Poison Doctor. If I target someone the night they were poisoned, they don't die the night after. I can use it each night and I can't self-target. I breadcrumbed it:

I have never seen the role Poison Doctor before, and I am not sure what to make of your claim, especially now that Hal counterclaimed straight doc. Two docs in a game, one with restrictions, seems like a lot, unless you're there to counter a particular role like an SK. But SK really doesn't work with how few NKs we've had.

Met posted:

Targets
N1: spacing in vienna
N2: TMMadman
N3: Epsilon Plus

Can you explain the reasoning for your targets?

imgay posted:

3 town+2 scum+me, and I can win with either team. its lylo and if town lynches me they lose

This would be a brilliant play if you were scum trying to avoid being lynched. But I think I believe you for now, which means we have bigger fish to fry.

Epsilon Plus posted:

Something about this is bullshit. Am I the only one who thinks breadcrumbs are the stupidest thing in mafia?

I do not like this post. Being skeptical of Met's claim after Hal counterclaimed makes sense. Right here, you're just throwing out vague smoke against an un-counterclaimed doc, in mylo, because ... of a breadcrumb?

Hal Incandenza posted:

Hmmm I'm a bit busy today but I will be home tonight. My feel is that spacing is my top scum choice.

Why?

Flavor never indicated poison that I can tell. Two docs, if legit, makes me think we'd have to have mafia and an SK, and one doc just handles the SK, but we've got a low body count for that.

The only other explanation I can think of is a little out there, and I should probably stick to Occam's razor.

I was going to ask you to claim your targets and just realized you did -- I thought you hadn't named all of them but that was me not realizing it's only D4.

Ridiculous concept: Met comes up with poison doctor because he is the poisoner. He knows he can fakeclaim poison doctor because it's a ridiculous role for this small of a setup with other nightkills available.

hal says he a doctor, could be why

Hal Incandenza
Feb 12, 2004

I could see imgay as a poisoner and met as who knows what alignment poison doctor.

Scum having only a poisoner seems a little hard to buy, especially since I am a regular old doctor and seemingly I could only stop one kill from birdstrike if scum only had a poisoner.

Also it is weird no one has mentioned having a common cold or anything on D2 or D3. It's possible on D3 one of the three dead people could also have been poisoned but that's a weird thing to omit if someone got poisoned on N1.

Also who knows what Vimes did, but in most other games with a poisoner if there were someone who could cure it they could do it the NEXT night and didn't have to be there the same night. Met could be just altering his role a bit and he can save the next night and saved some scumbro who got poisoned N1.

I am still going to go over post histories because that's still what matters, but even if you believe Met's claim that doesn't clear him as town. Also survivor with no other powers is pretty rough in a game with as many kills as we seem to have here so imgay's claim is very suspect to me.

I didn't blow my load out of the blue here. I'm pretty sure I can see my death coming and I revealed everything I knew and my suspicions for what's going on.

As for my targets, Night 1 was Vienna because he wasn't on the Turbo. I don't remember TMM. I think I just liked the cut of his jib that day. I can't easily scroll the thread right now to see what it was. Epsilon Plus was because I thought it would be odd if two Mafia got mod killed on the same day. Felt like a safe bet.

I've already revealed all I got here. I called for not turboing when Kash was at -1 because it doesn't do us any good to cut the phase off days early. Could have voted him out and been jokey and simply looked like everyone else.

Hal, what can you tell me about your role? I echo others sentiment that it's odd to have two Doctor roles if the mafia use poison. You would only be useful to protect people from Birdstrike (some sort of multi-vig town?) making bad calls? Or hindering him making good calls.

Worst case I think we should no lynch to extend the game as much as possible.

Let's push this day phase as long as we can. We have plenty of time to puzzle things through.

TMM presumably would have been the one poisoned N1 if the scum only have a poisoner and he posted a ton on D2 and didn't hint anywhere that he had a cold or that anything had happened to him in the night.

Stupid question alert. Hal, do you save people the night they're supposed to die, from anything and everything?

Met's poison doc claim is that he stops poison the night it's administered. The only way I can see both roles working is if town is getting two bites at the apple, that someone can be saved either night, but that implies a really heavily powered scum team, or scum + SK.

My role says I can visit people and keep them from dying, no more specifics than that, but it basically looks like your standard doctor role.

One scum flipped as vanilla so I'm not sure how powerful they can be. Neutral killer makes it work but we haven't had any of those kills (other than a non-standard multi use day and night vig) and imgay claims 3P Survivor.

One mislynch from a scum victory and you're insinuating there was a player who was merely a single-use nightvig when he was clearly more than that.

You're going to be really embarrassed if you're town. But somehow I just don't think that's the case. You didn't really do much except joke around until this phase and then went all-in on me during mylo without a real explanation.
