ROSEHEART: Why did you thought the information collected on N2 needed to be postpone until D4?
Luckyowl, you remember when you were pressured by webadict at the beginning of the game? What if the game master suddenly gave you a PM that said your claims are incorrect? You'd have to backpeddle in the middle of defending yourself.
That's exactly what happened to me.
I mean... what does this have to do with the question. It's a response, but it seems to have nothing to do with the question?
It sounds like you are trying to blame your actions on being PMed, after the fact. Or you wouldn't have just brought it up, when you have been failing to claim for days now for reasons still unknown and unexplained.
Eh, I wasn't
going to respond to these. But this, wouldn't sit right with me.
N1I decided to use my detective role to investigate TricMagic.
I heard them talking to their dog from outside, I didn't enter the building.
D2My earliest stealth claim of my role was to TricMagic on D2.
Bit hard to if you haven't said what you did last night.
Well, I'll admit I already have a strategy planned for tonight. If anyone is a guardian, they should be all over owl like a watchdog.
jiiiii
Fine. Day 3 is going to have to be a role reveal day you know. Shorten
Back when I thought they had a role confirmed alignment.
I said this at the end of D2, I thought if they survived to D3, they'd support me as probable town.
N2I decided to investigate Caz. Going through some books and belongings I determined they were also a detective.
D3 - Part 1
The Mountaineer grabs a few bear claws, being a favorite of his.
"So, I suppose the dopp decided not to do anything, outside any claims otherwise. Any information today?"
Oh, I don't believe that for a second.
Isn't that right, roseheart?
Not sure what makes me a target webadict.
I'm not particularly motivated to reveal my role outright. But I have actually already revealed it to people I trust, who I will also not point out.
Since we are getting into the nitty gritty of a smaller game, I'll be holding my cards, be they good or bad pretty tightly, thank you very much.
I'm not going to be counter claiming webadict, because I can kind of guess what's going on. I just propose to them to rethink the reasons why they might have obtained the "evidence" they may be referring to. There's a pretty solid town reason to have it.
I assumed he was at Caz's place N2, and incorrectly
assumed I saw them, too. Perhaps their flavortext gave them the impression I spotted them.
That they were referencing something that happened N1, I wouldn't realize until
much, much later.
I wasn't sure why investigating Caz looked anti town, so I simply asked them to rethink their presumptions. I didn't feel I had anything to hide.
If TricMagic was going to have my back, this was my callout to them.
Roseheart, I don't really believe you to be town. Two investigators, two telepaths, one medium, and my own role? Good chance of you or Caz being mafia, and Caz shouldn't have a reason to out their teammate.
It would later be proven no roles were alignment exclusive, including Observant Guard.Lucky, I see your question, but I would like to postpone answering at this moment. Is that alright with you? Technically, you could ask me to do anything, and I'd be forced to, but if you could extend some trust to me, I'm going try to bring the number of suspects down to 2, if possible. It just requires the remainder to claim.
Seeing a chance to prove Web was scum, or if he infact could back up his claim, I was the
1st to support the plan.
That sounds interesting. I'll claim as Investigator. I guess I'd have liked to have claimed after the others that haven't yet did so. But I am pro this plan(and wouldn't be able to explain not claiming without implying). If Owl dies I'd like to be protected unless someone has something better. If webadict is Mafia then this stunt should atleast be fun to watch.
Shit. If you're mafia I feel like you are working something fancy. Especially because you got me to reveal that on Night 1, I discovered TricMagic is a bodyguard.
Alright. I will vote no lynch. I will also Investigate webadict tonight. A psychic can check my goal. If there are any deaths tonight I am cleared if I don't have a kill intent. If there are no deaths well I am still a suspect but there will be no deaths, and inevitably be new information we can use.
Alright, let's get this show on the road.
You should be able to confirm me if you're an Investigator. Is that true?
And by that, I actually mean you should already know my role.
I don't know your role.
I knew he
claimed Sneak, but I didn't
KNOW he was a Sneak, as he implied.
Suddenly,
Deus ex machina(correction)
I check my new message. The game master informed me I had infact discovered Web was a sneak.
Although, I missread it, I didn't realize it was harkening all the way back to N1, I missread it as my spotting Web at Caz's place last night! I guess since the correction had none of the flavortext, and was more off a "Oh shoot/Oopsies" type message, I was more concerned with the part that said my last claim was a lie, I did know Web's role.
I logged off.
D3 - Part 2
Oh rose, sweetheart that you are, I'm going to skip a page of reading. I'm the Observant Guard. that puts the roles which can reveal alignment way over the limit for belief.
You're either mistaken, or the other investigator, isn't. If this is your strongest reason for calling me the Dopp, then there are no good reasons being leveraged against me, because I am, and I can prove it.
When I woke up I had a plan. I'd get Caz the detective to verify I was one, so that the fact that I was backpedaling not knowing Web's role didn't lead to suspicion over the authenticity of my own.
That sounds interesting. I'll claim as Investigator. I guess I'd have liked to have claimed after the others that haven't yet did so. But I am pro this plan(and wouldn't be able to explain not claiming without implying). If Owl dies I'd like to be protected unless someone has something better. If webadict is Mafia then this stunt should atleast be fun to watch.
I think you mean Detective, 'Investigator' isn't a role afaik. Investigate is the action. (I can confirm roseheart is Detective, btw, since I investigated him last night. But ofc, this says nothing about alignment )
But hey, cool! Me too.
Am I missing who you 'investigated' N2?
I'm fine with getting rid of roseheart today though.
I...did not expect to return to multiple knives to my throat. I thought my willingness to cooperate [with Web's plan] was enough to satisfy....apparently it was not.
I thought I layed the groundwork for trust with TricMagic, with Web, and with any doubters with...
but I was on what seemed a sinking ship, and I felt too overwhelmed to address all the potshots being taken, regardless if I believed I could respond to each individually.
The votes were piling up. What ever was going on couldn't be stopped, and I did not understand it. It was death by a million cuts, and I was and am really only equipped to apply Occam's razor. But there was no clear place to begin, just a bunch of silly circumstantial accusations and more coming in faster than I could hit the reply button.
Nothing stood out.
But when Caz self claimed as a Detective and
also claimed I was(for the second time, but I missed the first), finally, I had a place to start. I could now reveal my N2, visiting Caz, and the game master error, without the later bringing doubt to the former. If I didn't do this, then any inconsistencies with Web's total reveal plan couldn't be leveraged on me.
I didn't know if Caz was mafia or not (I thought they just lynch voted early, I missed that they counter-claimed juicebox's role) so I had to assume I was the only town Investigator(sorry, Detective!), and (you know, Investigator is a noun) thus self preservation seemed like an extremely protown move.
D3 - Part 3
Oh, I just got new info. Web was at rosehearts house last night, and is a sneak.
That is false, he was at TricMagic's house.
Later, I again confused this, when double checking that I found them at Tric's N2, I already claimed Caz as my N2.
Pre-roseheart lynching (THE PRESENT)Ehh, I don't expect this to change minds (not that there is time for it) but really I just wanted to explain my struggles to play mafia at a competent level. If I play again, I'll explain more in detail why I am a slow reader/writer in greater detail.
