Anyways, yes, just to make my claim more explicit.

I make cat ear headbands. I give out cat ear headbands. If you get a cat ear headband it forces you to wear it.

I said my role mechanics were suspicious day one. Now y'all know why.

I gave one to Jim specifically because I figured his destruction-thingy would let him destroy it.

Anyone else want one as proof they exist?

When you put it like that...no thanks to probably cursed brainwashing hats.

They don't do anything but get you stuck wearing them! Jim can confirm.

Okay, yes, my role could have some sort of control mechanic that lets me influence someone wearing one, but uh, it doesn't. Wrong spheres for that.

FoU.  I have no idea how or if this can help me or my wincon.  But somehow it feels right.  Are you interested?

Trade Six of Hearts for cat ear headbands.

[ToonyMan]

OMG.  It's D2, Toons is complaining, has a list.

And somehow I'm not the cause of or directly targeted as any of his things to complain about.

Maybe someday Toons forgives me and play is joy in that way too again.

You better scumhunt
You better not die
Better not punt
I'm telling you why
The Toons is coming to toontown

He's making a readslist,
And checking it twice;
Gonna find out who's been scummy and nice.
The Toons is coming to toontown

Now I will sulk at night and everybody should hope scum can’t compel me to act.

You've killed more players than scum.

What I signed up for by joining CYOS2:
1. Unlynchable ghost guy who is infecting everybody
2. No flips on death
3. Jim eating cat ear headbands

fantastic

Yeah, and the game is broken so we're nearly guaranteed to win as town.

Town: You win when all anti-town factions are dead.

Condition Update

To prevent unnecessary confusion, here is the corrected text of the Infection status.

{Infection}: You die after experiencing a full night cycle while infected. Ghosts cannot be infected. A player who is infected will infect anyone who they target.

I realise I have copy-pasted a draft version of the condition to people which stated infection could spread to people who target the infected. This isn't the case.

And Hector has shown that apparently ghosts can infect other people.

So...how does town not win by just killing everyone?

Yes yes, maybe the scumteam or solo scummer is "infection immune" or something like that.  But they'll have to dodge all the town vigilante kills and the town vote when they don't die from the infection.

Anyone see any flaws in that logic?  If Web or Vector were playing, they would probably calculate the odds of Town losing.

[TricMagic]

Tric: What did you do in the night, brah?

Or, more relevant, who did you target?

Egan. Were you not paying attention to day start?

Ghosts can't vote.

They count as dead for town wincon, but they can't vote.

If they can't kill except by infection - if Hector can do that.

I don't know about you guys.  But my sole way to kill is through infection that I just got.  Maybe we have a vig, I don't know.

If town 'Can't win' then mafia wins.  If we have an anti-town that we cannot kill through infection and kill everyone at once, maybe with infection.  And we have no votes, so we can't elim.

If there's live anti-town and can't vote.

I bet we lose.

Egan. Were you not paying attention to day start?

Not really.


Town don’t win if there’s an SK, so killing everyone might not work so well.

We lost the chance when Tric chickened out on targeting everyone, probably. Unless Imp and CM wish to coordinate N2…?

Still a curious thing that Imp was infected.

Long as the SK is dead, town wins just fine - wins with the SK as long as literally everyone is dead.

[hector13]

SK is anti-town though, their wincon is mutually exclusive with town.

Talk it through with NQT, I did.

The SK can win while dead, needs everyone else dead.

Town can win while everyone antitown is dead, even if all town are dead.

Everyone dies, SK+town wins.  I don't know that we have an SK.  But with the various hints about 'rocks fall, everyone dies' being possible, I was motivated to ask.

[hector13]

Well I don’t like that idea I refuse to go along with it.

We will not end the game singing Kumbayah around the campfire. Everyone wins, pfft.

That presumes there's no scumteam - they would be losers there, or winners if any of them are immune to infection and we tried to infect out like you wanted Tric to try.

Seriously, your story has more holes than your ghostly shroud, but that's fine and you this game, I get it.

Also, I have no reason to believe that there isn't someone anti-town who would survive that attempt.

The game's almost designed so there's maybe multiple ways to try and kill everyone still alive at once.  So I expect that's rigged to be unlikely to be as easy a win as it looks like it maybe could be.

Day Action Report

One of the warlocks slumps to the ground. Moments later, he stands up again, now somewhat transcluscent.

Jim has been killed and returns as a ghost.

[FallacyofUrist]

Oh god what the fuck.

[Imp]

spreads hands in a helpless gesture, then shrugs

Not me, but I was really wondering about Jim.  Now I for sure won't be tempted to vote there today.

Your last posts looked and felt good to me, Jim.  Sorry to lose your vote, no idea if you're town.  Grateful to be thinking of who else to elim, then.  Sighs in tired fear

[hector13]

Just give it a rest sweetheart, you can’t do anything about it if I’m truthing or lying.

I do reserve the right to rub your face in the post-game action report, however.

Bye Jim, hi Jim.
