WW 31 Game Thread PARANOIA

[Rowain]

MJW did not target me though, and I didn't hit him.

You get that much info from your ability?

[Bobchillingworth]

I was concerned he'd target me due to accusations he made against me later in the day, and I also suspected him of being a serial killer due to his ability to hoard more abilities.

...


If you aren't lying... good lord, Catwalk. The guy voted for either me or Gazglum like the entire day, voted for Gazglum in the end (who was revealed to indeed be a SK- just one who counted for a village win), essentially begged people to use powers on him- including powers which presumably could have really screwed over a SK (Ryan, any alignment seer, a tracker if he killed), voted for Azza, got wounded by someone who wasn't Gazglum (so almost certainly scum), and generally gave every indication of being village. Gaaah.


And, since I guess revealing is just at this point the thing we're doing and I don't want to leave the scum a safe claim if Ryan detects another killer- I'm a 2-shot Strongman Vig. I praise Friend Computer, who in his boundless effervescent wisdom decided to give me an even more restricted version of a Scum's power. Truly, Friend Computer's foresight and comprehension of Game Theory is exceeded by none! So, not as potentially useful as someone who gets a shot every day, but on the bright side I don't have to shoot random villagers if I suck at picking targets

[Serdoa]

catwalk, I believe what you state as your ability in general but would also like to be certain: You are really told all that stuff, including if the person in question did visit you or not?

Also, sunrise089 please explain what you did this night.

[novice]

Thanks Rowain GG MJW!
Just a quick FYI: I will be offline for the majority of this day and the night that follows (it is possible I will have intermittent internet access, but not certain). As a result I will probably be locking in a vote at a very early stage before a lot of the discussion (so if anyone has something that implicates me or a case on me, saying so soon would be best).
Zakalwe hit makes me think third party.

Answer this then, why are you thanking Rowain?

[Serdoa]

Because he gained a clone and assumes (or know?) that Rowain gave him the item I gave Rowain.

(Not meant to upset you that I yet again start answering questions novice, but this one did seem pretty obvious to me so I assume you did forget about it and not that you had some more in mind.)

[novice]

Which item, Serdoa? The experimental body armor?

[Qgqqqqq]

I get the feeling that a full clain needs to happen soonish, potentially today (in which case I hope people are fin with me revealing last, I don't think anyone paticularly suspects me). Catwalk, are you sure he didn't target you? I doubt it as well, but it would be good to know.

I would like to hear more from Ryan and sunrise. Ryan hasn't been giving any reads to me, pretty much everything has just been him saying who he scanned and lobbying for the death of those he had scanned. What's more I find it interesting that he can tell if a vig can kill - a power - and a scum - a factional ability but not any other powers. I'm not saying I necessarily think he's scum, but tbh he hasn't done anything to prove he's not, and I don't think his power role clears him (I find it perfectly reasonable a scum role in a vig-heavy/potential third faction game, especially from BRick who gave us the traitor seer), so I'd like to hear more from him about his reads.
Sunrise I'm not getting much of a picture from in terms of alignment, he seems to be just popping up once in a while to post some comments and never really committing to a strong case or read. Also his eventual votes have been questionable (MJW day 1 who I read as town then, Old Harry for day 2 which is quite null and Rowain yesterday). So I would like to hear some summation of both of your reads (suggestion: top 3 scum reads and why in sentence form, and possibly top 3 town reads and why).

I also worry a little that we're getting too locked in (in general, includes me), what with voting day 1 Q voters, killing a vig and so on. While I agree with all of these lynches that have been made, and still find myself wanting to take out novice, I feel worried that we as a town are focussing too tightly on these big events and the issues that spiral out of them and are thus allowing quite a few players to slide a little, and not pursuing many new cases. (This is why I wanted to open with the above)


novice, I gained a clone in the night, so I presume he healed me.

[Mattimeo]

N1 actions:
Mattimeo visited ?

Thought I'd (indirectly) claimed this; went back and actually looked and it turns out that with the assumptions currently being made I kinda hadn't :/

N3 actions:
Mattimeo visits ?

geez, you should know this one

Answer this then, why are you thanking Rowain?

I'd assume the +1 life, given Rowain has been attributed responsibility for the last one.
Don't *quite* understand the logic, given the last one was ostensibly from an item, and the item Rowain had for use last night didn't sound like a regen one, but seems most likely option.
