Yeah the link is pretty much a way to certify the role claim.


Also it means she collected the quotes over night fully intending to use the like that. Tricksy little bugger that one
I immediately regretted not taking the "post:XXXXX" anchors out. I had them sitting in a Notepad, and just copypasted while caught up in the moment. I thought editting them out after the leeway that would result in "Edited by XXX at XXX" would be even more of a giveaway. :blush

You'll notice the second quote from you, about shortkut, was remedied before posting!

I'm the one that suggested to @Zell 17 that the Jailer probably shouldn't be allowed to just tell their prisoner who they are, even. So I assure you I'm all about leaving room for doubt and giving everyone a fair chance. :^

Edit: Also on the subject, I had no intention of humoring Tubby's request even if Zell allowed it.

There’s risk to the jailer in giving up who they are. If they jailed a wolf they’ll pass the info along, or even just make a play during the day like “I jailed (insert real jailer) last night and they claimed gunner, does anyone dispute???”

I did jail Local. I didn't want to end up killing a villager though so I was just going to try and see what role didn't get to act overnight. Should have just done it for the sake of it!
So, I said in the living thread I would give you an explanation.

It's... that everything I said about Jailer/Warden being extremely powerful is true. But, only if people don't know who the Jailer/Warden is. :chuckle

I gave Alu the Spell over you simply because most people are still somehow unaware that he's claimed Marksman.

If you are committed enough to winning one of these wolf game by doctoring a screen shot, I say we just let that person win because they apparently need the self esteem boost.
...Oof.

I've done both fake quotes and fake screenshots in the past! :rofl

They actually aren't that hard to fake. Even the anchors are really easy to spoof, especially if you consider that most people aren't going to actually click on them.

I kind of want to see if I can pull it off. Pretend to be the ritualist and just make up stuff the dead chat is saying.
I'm so disappointed I wasn't the Illusionist. With the way things are going, I could have made a good shot at claiming some sort of Seer role and coasting through.

Who in their right mind is going to claim Seer as the Solo Killer? It's brilliant!

Any links to this quoted posts in this forum should redirect to a no-permission page, so best case scenario… everyone in-game knows that a post from the dead thread is referenced, and the players know who’s dead already, so even if it’s a quote directing to you… everyone there already knows you’re going to be posting here.

I might have some ways around this, @Zell 17 … I’ll look around and see if any options would fit however you plan on changing that rule.
So, it's a semantics thing in my mind.

Instead of being taken to a permissions page, how about seeing if it's possible to have it do a 404/Not Found instead if you don't have access to a thread? Functionally the same thing for non-game purposes.

Conversely, I and others will just need to take a chill pill and exercise a little caution when pulling quotes. 👀

Oh, absolutely. I just used that as an example of things I've said/done to establish no ill intent on this.

I am, regretfully, a bit of a fucking ditz a lot of the time. :bah

Anyway, the wolves are undone unless FR is lying.

Sheriff
Aura: Good
Can watch a player at night. If the player watched is killed by the wolves/solo, the Sheriff will be given two possible suspects for the person responsible for that player's death. If the Sheriff watched a wolf kill, the Sheriff will be given info on the lowest ranking remaining wolf and another villager at random (who may be any role). A jailed wolf will not be selected. The player selected is made at night by PMing a name to watch.

3. Shaman Wolf
Aura: Evil
Can select a player to enchant for the night. That player will show as the wolf shaman to all seer roles. This ability has unlimited uses, but cannot be used if the shaman wolf is the only wolf alive. The player to shaman will be selected via PM.

4. Berserk Werewolf
Aura: Evil
Once per game, can activate berserk status. The ability must be activated during the day. The wolves' normal nightly kill will be guaranteed to die. Anyone attempting to protect that player is also guaranteed to die regardless of role or role attributes. The berserk can be activated anytime for the current or next night phase by sending a PM. The berserk ends immediately if the berserk werewolf is killed, including if killed by the solo player immediately prior to use.

Where I'm at now:

guessing_game_update2.png

TD wouldn't let the wolves do this, I refuse to believe that.

...But the possibility remains that the wolves saw me as the Solo Killer through the Blind Wolf.

Which means 1) I'm marked for death and 2) Local Hero is not the Illusionist.

FUCKING VAAASH?!

LMAO honestly brilliant strategy that I will now ALWAYS pay attention to. With all the pages of posts and various shitposts, that's fucking brilliant. Props to you. And sorry I came at you, I fumbled my role claim and tried playing it off as spirit seer after I fucked up the aura seer fake claim. You and a few others saw right through it, and my feeble attempts at lying. :chuckle Bravo!

I was trying not to, but then Jawneh or whoever it was started pointing fingers at me and I felt I had to make a claim to deflect from that. Of course it turned out to be a dumb move and just got me killed in the night anyway. 🤷‍♂️

Everything I do in these games has me thinking "Am I being played here and making a really dumb move?"

You could actually be lying even here, if you are wolf.

It’s not that simple, because that permissions page is the only catch-all page used for inadequate user or user group permissions on the software. You’ll notice, that same page will appear if you try to do any function on the forums beyond your user group, not necessarily just posting or viewing permissions.

I do forget that others use PC and not mobile more than I do. Not that you can't use mobile to fake stuff too, but it feels like way too much work to me. It could be a good reminder to people to not believe everything they see on the internet. I wanted Vash to give fake quotes when he was the medium in the game I played. The idea of the medium being untrustworthy to the dead seemed like an amusing turn of events.

TLDR: I need to stop running my mouth and not be a bitch.

I looked up the Illusionist timing, prior paranoia doesn't hold water. Will be curious to see who drops dead from Local's disguise today.

Also I'm thinking about taking some of these posts out of context and putting them into the living thread. 'Cause otherwise today's going to be pretty dull as we run a train over Tubby... possibly repeatedly.

You can thank/kill me later. 👀

I feel ya. I sort of ended up doing the reverse to Dean, and am now using that to brutally murder his entire team... which very likely includes Jawneh himself.

Something to keep in mind, is all. Role claiming has become super dangerous. 😂

TLDR: I need to stop running my mouth and not be a bitch.
Pfft, you're fine. Obsessive may as well be my middle name for all of the ridiculous shit I get into.

If it sounds remotely entertaining, I'll do it.

Alright, it's time to get dinner started and so probably last post before my removal. :wave
(assuming I've survived lol)


If @Altoona Pizza finds himself in here: The moment you're revived you need to take the shot on Dean (or whomever). Assuming it still works the same as when @canadaguy was pewpewing, you should be able to reload the same night. Target Vash, kill him before the wolves can re-kill you the following night courtesy of the priority system.

Edit: No I didn't actually read my role, do I look like a goddamn forward-thinking person?! I don't know if revival targets see this thread or not. BUT ALL THE SAME.

Complete disclosure, I made up that I saw Ben's death. I just distrusted Tommy and Raine so decided a play needed to be made and took their names and threw them to the town. Hence Tommy was not the lowest ranking wolf remaining, assuming @Fool's Requiem is telling the truth.

I'm relived I don't have to lie anymore. That shit sucked. I do NOT want to be a wolf again lol. My team was very supportive but I struggled the whole time. They had to coach me in the PM lmao
You're such a better person than me. I'm here completely making up checks and you're worried about having to lie as a wolf.

I genuinely hope I didn't offend you with my post yesterday.
