quote:

You win when all threats to town are eliminated

You start out with 5 charges in the Automated Non-Lethal Laser Defense Grid

As a public day action you may **##Set up Automated Non-Lethal Laser Defense Grid on "player/s"**, this will cause any players targeted to be untargatable for the rest of the game day. This will spend 1 charge for each player targeted.
You recharge one charge each night somebody visits you.

It's Maer or Foo. I still want Maer to use her inspection and claim what that does for her.

You were the last to show up and vote for Cube. If it were Tsi or wologar they would have claimed so that Fancy could shoot you safely and then gone for voting me out per the hated stack.

Okay I'm caught up, that was fun

I do know Grandi is telling the truth about making players untargetable (I tried to inspect him after he did the first grid action and it failed)

I think I'm leaning Foo as scum, mostly because the "shrug, guess I should vote this person" felt reluctant

i want to return to this post...are you claiming you have or had a non-public day action?

Tsietisin

I would have normally claimed later, but as we appear to already be near the endgame, I am the Billy Joel song, We Didn't Start the Fire.

There are multiple references on my posts up until now.

I can send a message to someone at night. So I sent Foo a mock-up of a sociological research paper on The Bee Movie.

:shrug: As a starting point for trying to make sense of people's behavior, it's the only one that's ever made sense to me and while I am not a merk I'm no slouch when it comes to that panning out. I'm also just explaining from my perspective why I'd case you, you're definitely not who I'm interested in pressing at the moment especially with Tsi vouching for you messaging him.

It's definitely the right time for a massclaim. I'm a Day-and-Night Hostage Taker, but only one hostage per game so I'm vanilla now.

Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

I did not realize this yesterday unfortunately due to admitted mod oversight. It was argued I should have realized based on the restriction that I can't be protected after my hostage dies, but y'know, it should still say that it's a once per game thing. :colbert:

Also worth noting while I'm here this exchange:

Ignatius M. Meen posted:

If you have the ability to, inspect me. I'm open with Cube dead and I'm curious what that does.

Maerlyn posted:

I can try

I was gonna ask you to capture me but with Grandi's protection I don't think you can

Did Cube share anything in the masonry?

[...]

Ignatius M. Meen posted:

If it's a nonlethal action, you can target me and your action will succeed. If it's a lethal action then I guarantee nothing, which will make reticence to use your action on me fine and I will only press you on why you tried to kill Grandicap with it.

Maerlyn posted:

It's nonlethal but I don't know that you will be alerted whether I did or didn't visit you (unless you have something as part of your role)

I think you may be untargetable due to Grandi's grid as well, so it may fail

Ignatius M. Meen posted:

I don't necessarily expect that I'll know whether you did anything or not, I just want to see if you're willing to do it or not. I will not be untargetable because that grid landed on Cube while I held him hostage.

Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

Either she uses her action on me and tells us what that does, which we will then read as you would any claim, or she does not because either it's bad and will cause her to get turboed or she doesn't actually have a day action.

I am Ilya Ilyich Oblomov trying to get out of bed for 50 pages while being watched from afar by the anthropomorphization of the child of entropy and the sum of all sins of the world with an Hombres G cover of Ievan Polkka blasting in the background.

At night, I can ask someone else to help me out of bed, which roleblocks them. I can only use this action if I managed to engage someone in conversation about entropy, sin or music during the day.

I did visit you last night (I was the only visitor apparently) but you're gonna be disappointed because it's not alignment related.

You're not a Blind.
Wol is (checked as a day action today).

I needed to find 5 people who are "a Blind" - AFQM, Cube and Zoya were the first 3, Wol is #4 and the last is between Foo and Tsiet. It's not a vig/traditional bounty hunter role, the player isn't killed but I get some enhanced night actions as players are identified.

I'm town/share the same town wincon but I can abscond if I locate the last player.

"Blinds are the main obstacle that the player must overcome in Balatro. For each round, the player has to get enough score to beat the Blind, losing the game otherwise. Defeating the Blind may earn some reward money."

It's not quite a 1:1 match between flavor and role but :shrug:

For the purposes of this game it seems to not mean anything, other than for me to "find 5 randomly selected players and use an action on them"

Action is like playing a poker hand - last night I targeted Meen and was told only 1 person visited him, I'm assuming that was me. The next night's actions are stronger but I have to choose.

Weird but the promise to resolve yourself is appealing. If the last player dies, do you still abscond or are you stuck here?

I can abscond if the player we vote out today is a blind, and I target Wol tonight (that's my understanding of it anyway).

I only am at 4/5 because 3 of them were Cube, Fancy and Zoya.

If Foo is the last scum then I just win with town.
