You beaut! Welcome to Austraylya and crikey do we have some fun in store for you! My name's Steve Irwin and I just love animals! Everything about them. There is not a species on this planet that I don't love.



Here in Australia we have some of the rarest and most interesting creatures right on our doorsteps. I'm passionate about conservation of their land and their lives and want to bring the joy of these animals into your living rooms. There would be no greater thing for me in life than for everyone across the world to appreciate and protect animals.

Not all animals are friends with each other though and for my next show I wanted to show you the inter-species dynamics between Predators and Prey. So I have set up cameras across 1 million hectares of the Australian outback, I want everyone across the world to watch on as these animals interact and live their lives.

ROLE DESCRIPTIONS:

Team Prey:

1694569435255.png
Role: Kangaroo
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: Can't remember the Joey's name. However is desperately trying to find it. At night can nominate a player to check. If that player is the Joey they will be reunited via DM, if the player isn't the Joey the Kangaroo will receive no further info and must keep searching.

1694569466131.png
Role: White Ibis
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: At night, can nominate one player they wish to see the animal instinct of that player. As noted in the role descriptions not all animals on the Prey team present as such when the Ibis uses their animal instincts.

1694569478151.png
Role: Kookaburra
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: All seeing, always laughing. The Kookaburra loves nothing more than having fun at others expense. Can nominate one player to have their role revealed publicly on the Kookaburra's death. Nominated via PM and can be changed at any point.

1694569488051.png
Role: Platypus
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: Is the only player able to stop the Great White Shark's blood sense. Once per game may nominate to clean the waters, they do so via DM and must successfully pick a member of the predator team. Example: I choose to clean the waters and nominate XXX as a predator. If succesful the water will be cleaned, the town will also be notified that the clean was successful. If unsuccessful the platypus may no longer take part in lynch votes.

1694569499194.png
Role: Magpie
Animal Instincts: Unknown
Description: Magpies swoop and boy are they pricks. No one knows whether they are evil or not. Each night is able to swoop a player, that player is now injured. If a player is swooped for a second time they are now dead. Can not swoop the Joey, the Kookaburra or the Box Jellyfish.

If succesful in defending a target the wombat will be informed of the role, but not player, that attacked (in the case of the predator vote they will be informed as such). Once twice successful in defending a player the wombat becomes powerless prey. Protects against all night attacks.

1694569530986.png
Role: Koala
Animal Instincts: Prey
Description: While being cute and cuddly they are often infested with chlamydia. The koala can scratch a player with its claws during the day in an attempt to give it chlamydia. Their role will be announced to everyone when used as use requires a post in thread of "XXXX scratches YYYY" if the player scratches a Predator or Solitary Animal that player dies, if the target is on the Prey team the Koala is culled.

Role: Echidna
Animal Instincts: Unkown
Description: Spikey little fellas, they're slow moving but all seeing. At night, can nominate a player to check their role however doesn't receive the result of this check until during the next day phase. If killed before receiving their result the result of their check will be passed to the Joey (if still alive).

1694569573096.png
Role: Tasmanian Devil

1694569593107.png
Role: Veterinarian
Animal Instincts: Unknown
Description: You hold the anti-venom to protect the box jellyfish target, unfortunately you have only a one-time use as the manufacturer is suffering from decreased output following the return of a niche internet forum.
May select one player to target once per game as the Box Jellyfish (once selected can not change), if successful the Box Jellyfish will not be able to take another player to its death when/if they die. If unsuccessful you become a powerless human.

3.
1694569631420.png
Role: Great White Shark
Animal Instincts: Predator
Description: Once per game activates its ability to sense blood in the water (must be activated during the day). The predators normal nightly kill is guaranteed however everyone is alerted that there is a shark in the water. Sense is active until either the Great White is killed or the water cleaned by the Platypus

4.
1694569640873.png
Role: Common Death Adder
Animal Instincts: Unknown

5.
1694569651671.png
Role: Saltwater Crocodile
Animal Instincts: Predator
Description: Once per game at night can nominate a player to put in a death roll, that player now has two day phases to live. The only way to save a player from the death roll is for the Crocodile to be lynched. Can not vote with other predators on nightly kills.
If the Crocodile attacks the following roles it will also die at the end of it's death roll: Dingo, Tasmanian Tiger & Daddy Long Legs Spider

6.
1694569663841.png
Role: Cane Toad
Animal Instincts: Predator
Description: The most useless thing ever brought to Australia, literally told to kill them at night in Queensland. The lowest ranked predator they can vote but have no other powers

Solitary Animals:
1694569676938.png
Role: Dingo
Animal Instincts: Unknown
Description: The dingo's win objective is to find and snatch the joey from it's mother. Sends their attempted snatch at any point by DM to me in the form of Dingo snatches XXXX. If the snatch is successful the game is over and the Dingo has won. If the target is incorrect the Dingo is culled. If the Joey is killed by prey lynch while the Dingo is still alive they join the Predator team and win with them. If the Joey is killed by the Predator team while the Dingo is still alive they join the Prey team and win with them.

1694569690539.png
Role: Daddy Long Legs Spider
Animal Instincts: Unknown
Description: Lots of silly rumours exist about these guys have the most potent venom of any spider in Australia but just can't bite, really they are nothing to fear and are good for getting rid of other insects. Wins the game by being successfully lynched during the day. Loses in all other scenarios and if they are last alive the Prey win.

* camera pans the mangroves of northern Queensland to find Steve knee deep in water *
Crikey! Danger! I can't believe what I'm seeing folks!



The Saltwater Crocodile has attacked a player and now has them stuck in a death roll. They have until the end of Day 3 to live, there is nothing the prey can do now other than try and find the croc and cull it.

But that's not it, I've got more for you folks, you remember our friend the White Ibis? Well Terri and I took him home last night and we were going to have a little funeral with Bindi and Bob but by some miracle it's back from the Land of the Dead and walking amongst it's friends again. I love nature! You little ripper!

There was some news that made me really sad though unfortunately it looks like the predators attacked another animal overnight, thankfully the mighty Wombat has used his burrow and ample arse to fend them off. Poor fella has taken a few good whacks but he'll be right to keep offering protection to all the rest of his mates.

Wombat Fun Fact:
Wombat scat is cube-shaped. They act as territorial markers and in attracting a mate, and are left on top of rocks and logs. The cube-shape means that their poop won't roll away and can stay put in precarious locations. They also have super-tough butts (you'd have to have a tough one in order to push out a cube... ouch)!

Also get a load of Elle:

It's time for the Day 2 TD sus ratings.

Alu - 6/10
Honestly there's no particular reason for being above 5 other than it's Alu and I did say that moving forward I would assume he's always a wolf.

Benzine - 4/10
He's playing a game I've never seen before with gifs. He was upfront that he wasn't going to be posting a lot cause of work but he's here. It may seem like shitposting but I think there's a message in there and I think I understood the message. Maybe.

canadaguy - 6/10
Hard to get a read on currently. Hasn't done or said much of anything which isn't completely abnormal.

Christina - 8.5/10
Opened up with non game related posts. I tossed a joke out that Christina, Dean, kut, and Vash were hunting us. She got quiet after that. So did Vash. I played as a baddie with her and I think she's doing it again. She did offer up the concern about role claiming and the Dingo, but that impacts everyone. Telling people not to claim does also help the bads.

Dean - 4/10
He's been posting a lot. Although a lot of them have been game related. He's hinted at a role many times and he's playing very similar to last game. I was sus of him to start, not so much now.

Fool's Requiem - 3/10
On the surface, it's easy to say he's looking sus. But honestly? He looks TOO SUS if that makes any sense. The way he is playing reminds me of me and how I'm always sus. If he is a baddie he's doing a great job of hiding behind obvious sus behaviour. I feel very strongly though that he is prey.

Joseph Snapple - 3/10
Has hinted a role. One of my main baddie suspects went after him after I subtle hint from me.

Kat - ?/10
Did not see thread thread.

Local Hero - 7/10
Caveat on this sus rating because it depends how you feel about the Dingo being around.

shortkut - 8/10
In the same bucket as Vash and Christina except he didn't go quiet. Instead, he acknowledged it though which was good but he deflected it with a joke. Kelly saw something in him too which makes me feel stronger about this but then again Kelly did vote me. lol

Smacktard - 0/10
We know.

Tommy Boy - 3/10
I believe he is who he implied he is. That's really all I got.

VashTheStampede - 9/10
My top jellyfish candidate. Vet should consider a long hard look here. He's extreme sus for the reasons I mentioned with Christina/kut. He jokingly voted Christina but hopped off way too quickly when other votes happened. He also very bluntly implied something will happen with his death. A "joke" that's actually the truth? I think so.

So Zell is back.
The Wombat successfully protected.

Someone has been targeted by the Saltwater Crocodile.

Do they know?

@Smacktard
Should do the thing with his first suspect I feel.

I vote Christina.

Alright I've got a plan. But first,

If you are on the random list i.e. one of the following:

Kookaburra
Platypus
Magpie
Possum
Tasmanian Devil
Koala
Quokka
Echidna

You need to claim today. Anyone who wants to claim later on that they are on the random list is going to be instantly voted.

Fixed roles, hang on with claiming until we sort out this dingo mess.

I disagree with this plan.

We can't let the Dingo narrow it down and get a lucky guess.

I think so.
So I'm not going to bother with this TOO much after this post because you're my top SUSpect so I feel like it's a waste of time, but I just want to address some fallacies (or outright lies?) so you hopefully don't continue to lead the rest of the innocents down a regrettable path.

I didn't know about the "third vote is sus" thing really until the last game when Raine pointed it out. Now I keep looking for that. When Fool's made the quick jump on the Christina vote, he was the third, so thats why I jumped to him (especially because he was already being so erratically sus). Usually when he has a positive role in my experience, he plays tight to it.

Also my vote on Christina may have initially LOOKED like a joke, but I was hoping to get a reaction out of her because I had no idea how she would respond.

If I "got quiet" after your initial lob at me and others, I can assure you 100% it was a coincidence. If I got quiet every time you specifically accused me of being sus in one of these games, I wouldn't have a post whore badge.

Did I imply something would happen when I die? Hm. Interesting.

Either this is a horrible read by you or you're using circumstantial evidence to frame me.

Either way, you're seeming a detriment to the pack right now, so voting TD until further notice.

Didn't realize I was supposed to freak out about somebody with zero evidence calling me a predator at the start of day 1. It's always been a weird thing to me in these games that people just randomly accuse each other on day 1 with no evidence. The seer bird that could have seen anything died on night 1. We had nothing to really go on. I don't see the logic in just pointing random fingers at people that are more likely than not to be good guys. So no I didn't feel like I needed to say anything.

Did I disappear after that? I don't know. I might have been trying to look up a good Bluey gif or maybe just trying to read everything. Or maybe just personal life. Wasn't trying to as I didn't care.

It really feels like TD is pushing people to get culled real bad when there is no evidence of anything. So I'll vote  TD because that's sus as all get out to me. He's trying to take over and lead the heard here for sure.

I'm going to try and be on as much as I can, but I'm working a half day do to an appointment that I've got mad anxiety about. I'm going to be in the car a lot and I have a lot of work to get done. I'm going to do the best I can today, but I don't see having a lot of time to defend myself against TD's feelings today.

Fixed roles shouldn’t be claiming today. Don’t want to narrow the Joey down too much
He's claiming literally every role.

And narrowing down who the joey can be can end the game at literally any moment. If we're about to lynch the dingo they can just guess on the now narrowed down list and win. They can guess at any moment.

Yeah, what you guys don't seem to understand is that the evils are never going to kill the dingo or the joey. And they know the exact roles of those they kill, we're never going to get lucky here. Every single day that goes on, the chance of the dingo randomly guessing the Joey increases.

Our only chance to avoid an instant loss is to aggressively pursue the dingo here. And that means forcing out some claims. Sitting back and hoping it all works out isn't an option.

You didn't seem pleased that I joked about not everyone being able to do it followed by voting for you with my 69th post and then not posting again.
Omg I didn't realize that was yours too

Ok thats brilliant in retrospect

Way better than my 69th just being the word "Nice" in response to Jawneh's death

Hmm

Anyone recall someone trying to purposely avoid a culling yesterday? Might have been trying to slow the game down for this reason.
 
But that's not it, I've got more for you folks, you remember our friend the White Ibis? Well Terri and I took him home last night and we were going to have a little funeral with Bindi and Bob but by some miracle it's back from the Land of the Dead and walking amongst it's friends again. I love nature! You little ripper!


I honestly don't know how you did it.

I lasted 14 minutes.
Hey, don't be ashamed of how long you last during or after 69.
 
  • Haha
Reactions: TD
FYI I'm really only asking two people to claim here.

Tommy Boy already claimed Quokka.
Kelly is the Koala.

Two random roles left.

Also if you are currently being killed by a saltwater crocodile might as well mention that publicly as well, that confirms another townie.

I initially thought Vash was implying more with his "I'm grinning like a shot fox" comment and could've been subtly role claiming as Quokka, but now I don't think so.

Also I vote Kat. Either she is an evil laying low or a townie making no posts. Either way hurts the town, vote her off.
I'll add that like 10-15 minutes before the day ended, she still hadn't seen the thread.

My guess is genuinely that life got busy and she didn't have time.

Doesn't mean anything from a role perspective, I think.

How confident are you? Asking for a friend.
The thing is - I could be overthinking it. I have a tendency to do that. However, that overthinking leads to good cold reads more often than not.

I'd put myself at about 60% confident.

We also shouldn't worry too much about the jellyfish until we look to kill it.
