Alright, here's the gimmick

I wanna know how this is the first time I get a kill role in almost 10 games, and someone like Vash gets a kill role every game.

Something is rotten in Denmark and it isn't (insert something Denmarkian here).
Even though it would indeed be funny as shit to give Vash a gun again, the roles were randomly generated this game.

All I'm hearing is excuses.


Listen man... I don't get kill roles... I'm sorry I was trying to actually kill a bad guy because I was excited.

I had CG blindly targeted night one, and didn't kill him or move it night 2. He'd have been town night 2 so I would have suicided anyway.

LOL! I just thought of this too... the ONE time I get a kill role and the gimmick is to NOT FUKCING KILL. :link

Just my luck, lol. I swear Zell did it on purpose.

Does being a wolf not count as a killing role?

I don't think there's a snowball's chance in hell they figure out the gimmick.

I bet they all just think the gimmick is no one knows how many of each role there is lol.
It's a tough one to guess. I don't think I would've figured it out yet. IMO their best chance is to kill all the evils.

Not to me, no. But I was specifically referring to village roles either way.

I think the part that makes this tough/impossible is that no one knows they are supposed to guess the gimmick. Couple that with it's actually part of the win con and I stand by my assessment for now. Add to that the evils change daily... I don't know what everyone was assigned, of course, but you'd almost have to have everyone have a kill role and just blast with impunity. Which is ironic since the actual way to win is conservative.

lol... I don't know how many people are like me and just don't vote day one, but I actually had the right idea and strategy (unknowingly) and yet I'm the one that died. :rofl

I think as time goes on, there will be more "proven" townies like me who get revealed as wolves.

As long as Alu stays alive they'll get it
They will probably figure out townies are showing as evil when they shouldn't be, but will they figure out they need to not kill? It's not generally on the list of possible solutions in this game.

I guess the only "hint" is that the first post always says that no deaths results in a tie, and now it no longer does.

If they figure out that everyone is a villager then I think it's well possible to come up with "Hey, maybe we shouldn't kill people we know are villagers".

You have FAR too much faith in this bloodthirsty group. I think it's more likely they feel something up but still DeVito the place.

I still can't wait for Vash to realize he didn't actually kill a wolf. :link

Also they know that there is some kind of gimmick and the whole "The only winning move is not to play" is a pretty well-worn trope.

I think it's solvable.
You think a lot of positive things with our towns.

You're often wrong because we find new and exciting ways to fuck things up. :link

Yeah, if they get down to a group of proven townies, they'll figure it out. Or once they've run out of bullets (possibly has happened?), and they only get one kill per day and the evils do the same at night, they might realize the gimmick after a few days. It just depends if they run out of townies first or not.

I completely agree it's solvable. The question is whether people can see through their blood lust long enough to consider what's going on. The fact that the number of people on each team isn't specified is a huge hint too. Obviously you didn't leave it at the normal number, but pretty much everyone is playing like they assume you did.

I think there's a real chance they just start believing everyone is lying too, though. The assumption that they'll just assume everyone is real and town seems optimistic to me.

Short of every single person having a provable role, anyway. But the fact it's all trickster and shaman throw that off.
 
Not sure if there could be a shaman wolf that could have just happened to hit shortkut night one. Since shortkut popped up trickster wolf, I checked Local to Vash a known townie being as he shot somebody yesterday. They are not on the same team.
Is Christina saying she checked me and Vash and we are on opposite teams? How does that work if we're all townies?

For that matter, how did Christina and shortkut come back as opposite teams night 0?

Wolves don't exist and the townies don't matter
Also, there are no wolves and no solo killers. Everyone was assigned a villager role. Each night, 5 players at random will be masked/shamaned to appear as wolves/solo. If they get killed, they will show as wolves/solo killers to the village (much to your/their surprise, I am sure). If a masked person is killed, there will be one fewer masked person the next night.

Oh right, that's a good point.

SOME wolves and SOME solos? Village gotta move fast, voting Benzine anyway nbecause bandwagon lol

Ditching the "trust cg to prove himself" plan in favor of blood? I jive with that. Kinda felt I was being pier pressured into that judge-proving plan.

Voting Benzine.

I think Zell said he can't judge if they lynch Benzine, even if he blocks it.
Here's the thing:

If they don't vote to lynch, the Judge can chose to strike the hammer and lynch someone themselves. If both Benzine AND CG die as a result, someone is BOUND to realize some shenanigans is going on.
