The game is over!
The Imperials win!
The Rebels have failed to provide any meaningful threat at all to the Emperor.
The Cybrid has been eliminated//decommissioned//scrapped.
Yay! And there was much rejoicing! Thank you all for an excellent game, even if it was too lurky there at the end. A couple of thoughts:
a) The greatest factor in the win was Toaster's sacrifice killing the cybrid. That very much decided the game right there. Wow!
b) Since we lynched true D1, and correctly targeted Ottofar for a vigkill N1, the game could have indeed been over by D2! I don't think I ever saw that happening, excellent aim, town! Only Ottofar's unusual health saved them, and only then for a bit.
c) My admiration to
the three T's: Toony, Think, Toaster, for excellent play throughout the game; Phantom had that mind-boggling slip D1, but otherwise also played excellently, thanks.
d) I suspected we had at least two doctors, knowing that I had to be kept alive, so it made sense for the scum not to target me N1, but I was apprehensive a bit when Toaster flipped doctor.
Also, what powers did the Emperor have? [...] Should've infected him Day 1.
No powers you didn't know about. Kinging, talking at night, and inviting people to the chat. But targeting me N1 would have resulted in failure as well, given the doctors.
Did anyone notice the hidden message in my Message to the Emperor?
Read the first word of every paragraph.
No, I totally missed it. In fact, I just went back and I can't find it at all. But something did seem off about the way you were talking, which I read not as an attempt at communication, but as subliminal scumminess. I really thought you were scum D1, and would have asked Think to target you, but your outing of Servant made me reconsider (great move, by the way, especially if you weren't actually sure! it was totally convincing).
Anyways, int heir opening messages, I told all the rebels to be careful about talking in chat. I told them they might not be able to trust those they were in chat with. I made it clear to servant it was his job to ferret out the trustworthy folks and invite them.
None of them made any use of this.
This. It was their own fault for failing to be crafty. Once I saw Servant had infiltrated my chat, I realised there was something amiss with who had access to what. The rebels really should have done a bit of effort to conceal themselves.
In short, masterful play by town, coupled with mediocre play by scum, made this game short and almost an example of the fastest possible town victory. People should learn from this for the future; it's all about player skill and engagement, not so much at all about roles.
Finally, thank GG for a very fun game. I enjoyed the flavour, and you know I always like it to be able to RP a bit and be flavourful. I really tried not to overdo it to a point where it'd be too annoying or get in the way, but I'm not sure if I didn't go over the line a couple of times. Being a confirmed townie and a big red target from the start was certainly new. But it was fun throughout.
So the Emperor and the Empire lived to fight another day. Solomon Petresun opened a secret drawer in his desk, and pulled out several medals, asked his officers and loyal citizens to gather around, arose and spoke:
Excellent work. You made short order of those pitiful rebels, and the metallic cockroach was squashed promptly. This should go down in history as a textbook example of how to work to achieve victory for your cause. I am in your debt, and you have my admiration. My Officers are promoted to a post of their choice, and knighthoods granted to all other citizens in recognition. Also, we shall have a state funeral for Toaster, whose early diligence revealed a rebel, and subsequent valiant sacrifice secured this victory.
Thank you all. For Earth!
