No one's supposed to be safe during the night, but no one died yet. Clearly, the night kill mechanic isn't unlocked yet, same as the voting mechanic.

The only winning move in this puzzle is not to play.

...ok, the one other winning move is to play and then catch all the scums, but that's way harder

I have a pet theory that there are no scum and this is an FRG, where we vote someone out every day and there are no nights.

we already had a night, but that was before we had nightkills.

We still don't have votes.

you can't claim more than two powers, I know this for sure.

Although it sounds like the serial killer might also be allowed to have a separate power.

He claimed a non vanilla role and was writing (what I perceived to be) nonsense.

didn't someone else claim to no longer be vanilla too? At the time I thought maybe old people get powered up or fleshed out as new people arrive, but then that was proven wrong with the big hunt for power roles.

b-minus1 posted:

Cool I have a dayvig now

b-minus1 posted:

I’m not vanilla

oh, it was you. And now it sounds like a joke nvm

Sal did claim to be vanilla though:

SalTheBard posted:

I don't even know at this point other than I am vanilla town

Which might be kinda suss since we weren't actually spelled out as vanilla town, just town. Not exactly a gotcha here, though

the dayvig was a joke.

and yes, Sal claimed "vanilla town" back when there were only four players, which I thought was odd. I was looking for simply "town" .

Nat had the same idea. Back when this rule was still in effect...

MMM Whatchya Say posted:

You may still talk to people not in the game about the game

he had a little chat with me about stuff to also talk me into signing up, haha

which makes me believe he really is town, cause pretending to be town and trying to look all interested and analytical already even outside the game seems a bit much even for him. I think if he was scum he woulda just told me all about his awesome scum plans for fun, and NOT pointed out that I could sign up :cheeky:

Natural 20 posted:

Yes.

It means he was probably fishing for the individual word as a response which means he had strong reason to believe that town had got a single word.

A scum player could infer that reasonably but it was too fast imo.

well, it was stated explicitly by MMM at one point, that he'd give you a one word PM, town or scum. But I didn't expect everyone to actually pay close attention to that, especially with all the cool puzzle things around to distract people.

I still got no idea about any of these puzzles, I just got lucky when the sheet came out that something was real easy to find using version history.

but it seems nuts that we got people putting in this level of effort and they managed to unlock day/night, nightkills, and SK but no votes.

maybe it's an intentionally delayed thing so it's like we get a night zero, and we'll just get votes automatically tomorrow, but if not I'm gonna be giving Rex and FL some major stinkeye here

Khris Kruel posted:

also ignore anything bif says. Never trust scum.

Hell is a fun discord server where Satan, his demons, and the Judge of all souls make new games and challenges and channels at their whim.

By taking part in these activities, you can gain various rewards. Flesh is the main currency, but some other events allowed for souls to gain the more rare commodity of blood. I'm not sure if that has any use anymore, it appears to have played a role in a one-off event to awaken Satan by making various sacrifices at his altar.

One other very special item in hell is the tickets. Fractions of a ticket were a frequent prize offered at the auction house. A full ticket allows a soul to face their judgement. I don't know if there's any actual requirements you need to meet for your judgement though, seeing as I've been quite the slackass even in hell. Maybe it's just some appropriate theatrics to set the mood before you choose which way you wanna go.

Actually, I wonder if maybe it's not so simple as popping right back to how you were, maybe the questions could have some effect on your returning alignment perhaps... I said I didn't regret anything I'd done, after all :cheeky: but it sounds like there's some new deep puzzle poo poo going on in the mystery world beyond. That must be where Nat went. Oh, so actually maybe don't bother going there, cause he's got a big head start on all y'all.
