It's also possible that a claimed rebel is unaligned or hostile, leaving the Imperials and Rebels at two each. E.G., Hapah could be a Machinator//Ghost, since that role and Snowman work the same way, and as far as I can tell, his Guardness is unconfirmed. Or he's a Snowman Sympathizer, or something else.

Point being, the Imperials having a kill isn't the only explanation.

Late day flavour

It was cold. Quiet. Toaster's breath echoed in his ears as he stepped into the room, the first through the breach. Eyes cast left, then right, and- Oh gods! He let's out a shrill squeek and stumbles backwards, nearly falling. Hapah, following him into the room, steadies him with an arm as he looks over.

"Bodies - we have bodies in the room." Hapah said. "Dead ones, from the look of it."

The others funnel into the room after - Think and Hapah kneel by the bodies, checking them, while Dariush stands nearby with the party's pistol, "In case they get back up".

"Well," Think says, looking up to the others, "No pulse. Pretty sure this one's actually dead. Haven't been dead long, though."

"Same story with this one." says Hapah. "Look like they suffocated when the power went out and we lost the air filters. We're lucky we didn't get here half an hour earlier, they'd have still been alive."

"Lucky!?" exclaims Jim, shocked, formerly known as zombie urist, "Lucky? We're lucky potential allies died just before we could reach them?"

Dariush's pistol whips up to Hapah's head. "I know an Imperial when I see one, and these men are all Imperials. Why in the bloody hell is them being dead a good thing?"

Hapah stands, and glares calmly in Dariush's direction. "Because if we HAD gotten here half an hour earlier, and these men hadn't been dead, they would have needed air masks to stay alive. Air masks that they don't have, but we do. Which we need to keep ourselves alive. There would have been no time to take them all back to suit room, and we'd have been unlikely to live through anyway, which didn't even have enough suits for them. We either would have had to defend ourselves, or they would have-"

"All of you, shut the fuck up!" yelled Urist Imiknorris. "There's plenty of dead folk around, whatever, look!" He shone his flash up, and into the darkness, along the sharp black lines of the nighthawk. "I found something way more important. A way out."

[Think0028]

I'm not an Enforcer, unfortunately.

So... the plan is to lynch Jim since we don't have any other leads as to what's causing the game to stall, and convert me to give the Rebels the numbers advantage and end the game. Correct? If so, Jim.

[Jim Groovester]

Lynching me isn't going to do anything, you lazy motherfucker.

Why are you unwilling to consider the possibility that one of the rebels isn't actually one instead? That's an equally likely possibility for the game not being over yet.

It's even testable. I mean, goddamn. Why are you being lazy?

[Urist Imiknorris]

Hapah, Toaster: Are either of you actually a cybrid sympathizer? Since you have no chance of endangering your victory anymore, it would be most helpful if you would claim.

And Think, we could no-lynch and achieve the same result, except the survivor gets to win too. I'll block Dariush tonight, and if the game doesn't end tomorrow then we can lynch Jim.

[Think0028]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if Toaster really is a rebel converter, then it's irrelevant if anyone else is fake-claiming, as Toaster will convert me and then the pure rebels will almost certainly have a numbers advantage. Thus, lynching you, someone who is almost certainly a Cybrid, when the game isn't over, is very much an advantageous move! Even if Toaster is lying, there's the fact that the game isn't over, and we have a Cybrid who's alive and kicking. Seeing as I don't trust you as far as I can throw you, I find lynching you a good first step. Do you disagree?

PPE: Unvote, then. I find his survivor claim unlikely (he's done ballsier fake claims before), but it does seem like that's a good alternative.

[Jim Groovester]

No-lynch.

Hapah should also guard me. He can verify his Guard claim by preventing me from trying to kill him. If he successfully blocks me, then he is confirmed. If not, then he was a liar and he will be dead.

[Hapah]

Once - just once - I'd like to know what the hell is going on on this game.

So just to make sure I'm getting this right: Jim is now a confirmed Cybrid (by his own admission, of all things. Never thought I'd see the day), Toaster may or may not be a cybrid, and we're going to test Toaster's conversion claim and my guard claim tonight. Then re-evaluate tomorrow based on what we learned. Do I have the gist of it?

GUARD JIM.

No-lynch.

Alright then. Let's do this thing. Would a shorten at this point accomplish anything, or should we just ride out the last 24 hours?

[GlyphGryph]

I probably won't get a chance to close until tuesday morning, so no, it wouldn't really do much.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Pretty much, except Toaster's a cybrid sympathizer at worst. Also, if Jim was telling the truth, could a sympathizer even win in this setup?

[Hapah]

I guess a sympathizer could win. Their wincon just says that a Cybrid has to live through the end of the game, and I don't see how it would conflict.

I'll try to check in tomorrow for any breaking developments.

[Dariush]

We have two confirmed cybrids and we're no-lynching. Nice.

[GlyphGryph]

Game ends... whenever I get back from my concert. Any time after 12 hours from now, so do try to finish up by then! ^_^

[Toaster]

No, I'm not a sympathizer.  I am, and always have been, a Rebel Officer Persuader.  I'll convert Think tonight.

No Lynch.


Dariush:  You're forgetting that if you buy Jim's claim, it clears me.  You can't have two confirmed cybrids.

[Dariush]

Dariush:  You're forgetting that if you buy Jim's claim, it clears me.  You can't have two confirmed cybrids.

Actually, I'm not buying it. The way I see it, he's scum covering you with his claim. For beginners, having one survivor, one SK and one killing role on the side of the rebels seems extremely unbalanced to me. What would prevent ZU/Jim from claiming D1, getting Tiruin lynched and instawinning together with rebels?
