Imp, do you know if you were roleblocked N1?

Weirdly, it's not townie for me to answer that at this time.

CrystrallizedMire: apologies if I've missed an account of this, but why didn't you use this inspect-ish ability earlier in the game?
My inspectish ability consumes resources. I decided to collect resources on n1 because I predicted that lots of people would target me last night. I was wrong. And then I have to place a worker on one player and then another on another player to actually check. So far, I've only placed one worker.

I wonder with all your claims... which make you a great maf kill target in my opinion.  You didn't call for many visitors of the non-lethal ability when you wanted them to target you.  I wonder why not and why not call for what you want town to do.  Fear of someone bussing you, like punch was discussed?  So you got no targeters at all or only bad ones?

Elephant these types of questions are why I'm thinking you aren't town. What am I supposed to do, go on old reads from N2? At the moment it's not entirely clear, so putting my vote on the one I think isn't playing the same game in the first place. This whole thing about Juice/Monday not being roleblocked when it would mean Jack/I got roleblocked doesn't make sense. That's way too many roleblocks. While they could have been redirected both, I don't think that's what happened. So info-wise flipping Juice makes far more sense to me.

As it's near end of day, I'll also be taking the Ice Cream tonight.

I'd be happy if we flip this.  Dunno if we can.  This gotta die.  I'm unsure about NJW now (hey, the feel is wrong... and then CM's claims oddly matching my target?  But now I'm a little scared about elim of NJW.... and what if my read's wrong?

I'm largely in agreement with Tric.

I was roleblocked by Mafia, since nobody is taking credit for it.

If Juice is also town I doubt my townread on Jack more.  So much weird confusion, including about if has results or what they are.  So weird.  Could be town weird?

NQT, yeah.  Wish we could flip Tric today.

My current high scum leans are Juice, Sal, Tric.

I think CM could be town.  EP seems likely town.  NQT seems likely town, okay iffy but I get what he's maybe doing and it looks town to me if I'm right.  EJ is likely town, but feeling less sure.  NJW is 'get on a chair and scream like I saw a mouse what is this what is this'.  So... dunno.

Who is the 9th I can't remember...

Oh, wait.  There's only 9 of us now, k.  This game is a lot of brainwork.  Guess that's how it scumleans in part.

There's not much I can say to that, but unless EJ claims his actions by EoD I think you might be wrong.

Imp or NJW please put the final vote on Juice? 3 hours left. This is getting silly.
I cannot imagine Imp failing to vote. I think we’re ok.

I can hammer nearer the time if not, but there’s an hour left.

I’m not sure I understand the confusion around EJ. They seem to have used multiple abilities - sure, that can happen. Is it that they claim to have used a genre role block N1 but didn’t?

EJ pre-claimed to intend to use Jalepeno Poppers with the inspect D1.

No idea if they did or not.

EP went smoothly into suspecting EJ gave me the blue vote.

Jalepeno poppers gives blue vote?  That's neat if y'all were expecting that.

It's D3.  All family should know what was used N1 of the family genre, or I misunderstood the claims about that.

So, I think the family that we know about, Tric, EP, and EJ, see 3 used family genre abilities... I'm guessing based on claims but that's what I think they mean is what's happening.

Now, EP suspected EJ gave me blue vote?  I know how/why I got 1 blue vote and I don't have 2, it would show.

EP should know what was used.  Tric claimed to use protect on EJ.  EJ claimed to intend to use poppers, and said he acted 2 actions on me.

Anything not making sense family folks?

N1, he performed two actions on Imp and one on juicebox. One of the actions was the auction-bought inspect on Imp, and one of the other two actions was the family roleblock (I don't think he claimed this D2, but I can confirm* it). N2, he performed Develop Property on juicebox for the second time. So either he roleblocked Imp and neither of them claimed it and Juice was roleblocked by either his personal action or someone else entirely, he roleblocked Juice (meaning that he either lied about only acting on Juice once or lied about his N2 use of Develop Property being the second on Juice), he lied in some other way, or something really weird is going on.

Hello Everyone, I'm going to try to be more active today. I can confirm that I was unable to perform any actions tonight. If I could have I was going to track Elephant Parade.

@Elephant Parade Why track Jack instead of someone you were suspicious of, like me or Imp?

CM targeting themselves is also a bit suspicious to me, with that plus their focus on the auction, it really seems like they're playing for themselves instead of playing to help town.

CM are you more or less suspicious of anyone now that everyone's claimed their night results?
Will you say how many actions you performed last night, then?
Yes, I performed three actions. Two targeted Imp, one targeted Hyper/ Salvatore Monday.
Will you say how many actions you performed last night, then?
Yes, I performed three actions. Two targeted Imp, one targeted Hyper/ Salvatore Monday.
Then something funny happened, because I tracked you (via a Family Genre action) to Imp and juicebox. I was holding this back until you claimed because I thought it was mildly odd you had only targeted two players.
Sorry, recalling sent PMs on the forum is HARD on my phone.
I actually targeted Imp and juicebox. I didn't target Hyper/Salvatore Monday. My apologies for the confusion.
I used Punch on Crystalizedmire.

I also used Develop Property on juicebox.

@Tric: I used Develop Property on juicebox twice.  When I used Develop Property on the same location twice, it roleblocks everyone but me at that location.
Bad news, it might be my fault.
Good news, I think this means we can't be night killed.

Also: I got no night action results.  Like...I was told nothing.

* Technically, it's possible that, rather than Tric using the family protect and EJ using the family roleblock, EJ used the protect and Tric used the roleblock. But even if they were colluding, I don't know what the point of that would be.

I think I get it. So either EJ lied about the second develop property to explain away Tric’s night results, or EJ used an extra roleblock somewhere on N1, as well as performing two personal actions, one of which targeted Imp. Who was NOT roleblocked. Or EJ lied about N1.

Yep, that is definitely not right.

EJ seems to have gone from not role blocking Juice to having roleblocked Juice N1, if I’m following correctly.

And I'm not sure what is going on here.  I do wish we were elim Tric today.  That said.  I had wished we were elim NJW days 1 and 2, so I'm confused and maybe wrong.  But I have more mech related reasons about Tric.  Consider my flip careful if I flip.

I guess we're playing juicebox's game. What do you have for us, juicebox?

juicebox unclips a small pouch from his belt. Inside is a set of 16 cards.

I'm not sure this counts as a board game... but sure, let's play. Can you set it up?

juicebox deals two cards to each player (don't do the math) and briefly explains the rules. It's a quick and simple game, but seems fun.

"So that's how you play! Hold on, before we start, I just need to put on my reading glasses."

He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a pair of spectacles. A red spiral is painted on each of the lenses, making them look like something out of a 1950s magazine ad. Donning them, he flips a switch on the side, and the spirals begin spinning slowly.

"Okay, I'm ready now! Hey, why'd you all put your cards down? You're going to have to look at them to play!"

Unamused, the rest of the crowd rises from their seats and kicks juicebox to the curb.

Wow, you folks sure are passionate about board games! It's just too bad we haven't played any yet. Oh well, maybe tomorow.

Your host takes a deep breath as you walk into the main hall. An uneasy smile stretches across his face.

Alright. I think I've got this figured out. Everyone loves the Game of Life, right? How could you not, it's basically just like real life, which everyone loves. Right?!

TricMagic looks a little sad. He can predict what's about to happen, but can't help himself from stepping forward and correcting his host. It's his favourite game, after all.

"Um, Magma? You've put the spinner upside-do-"

Arrrghhhhhh!! Those despicable cheaters have done it again! I'm sorry Tric, but your game's gotta go.

TricMagic nods solemnly while Magma Mater flips the table. Tiny pink and blue pegs shower TricMagic's face.

Spoiler: TricMagic's Flip (click to show/hide)

Alright everyone, it looks like our friend from yesterday wasn't the only cheater. You know what to do!

I used an investigative personal ability, whose results I'd like to claim after everyone else claims if that's OK. I did not use a genre ability.

I'll save for confirm(s).
