Night Actions

Here are this game's night actions! Players are sorted by the order they die as usual.

Spoiler: Night Actions

This game was largely designed around trialling the new Serial Killer as well as trying out a new role, the Clown. Despite being solo parties, we thought it would be interesting to see if the comp itself rather than specific roles could aid and hamper these two parties. There was a faux mafia party in three death millers, as well as a freeman that the two non-towns could hide behind. We deemed this little core of semi-pro-towns necessary for the single SK to hide behind + create some competition for the Clown in terms of sus candidates. Police Officer is there to catch the criminal serial killer (only the workday of the cop ends around dinner while the serial killer prowls around at midnight ).

We thought the standard core of Doc, Det and Prost complemented by Cowboy would be sufficient for the town to win with, aside from their numerical superiority. Troublemaker is a double-edged sword involved for everybody. NVD and Bomb are passed along town and can completely debilitate any of the TP's; especially the Bomb could have coldly ended the careers of either one of them. The strongest asset Town had was their numbers; SK would have to survive 4~5 phases whereas Clown has to inversely fight impatience while getting lynched early. If not, the town has enough bodies to throw at the Clown timer.

Overall, maybe aside the PO, we thought the comp was relatively balanced; it was also pretty close. The Clown almost died D1 but then deflated around D5. DD was on the chopping block the whole game, and could have still died rather easily had the last vote been unplaced or just stacked on Faust. Very entertaining! Hope to see all of you guys next game again.​

So, from today we have a clown loose.

 

[Asako]

So many inactive
I want to hear more about faust tatsu and holt
For faust even tho yesterday he was active he really was active in name only don't remember him doing anything significant even tho he was there at the end
Only commenting but not really sharing his thoughts about others
Tatsu she did yesterday the baee minimum and dip out, and today mainly doing reaction posts
Holt ... Is being Holt
We miss active holt
The new zasz



Honestly clown is bad for this game considering how easy it is to be suspicious for being inactive and that make it easier for mafia to blend in

The clown had to survive day 1 and night 1, we should see who suddenly changes their approach to the thread. Of course the main focus is lynching mafia.

Something specific you want to hear from me ?
Also would the clown be very inactive ? If you're like 1 out of maybe 5 inactive people, you can't be sure you'll be the one lynched.

 

[digitaldude]

I wonder if sakura blocked anyone, anyone got blocked result?

 

[Tatsumaki]

Baka Taichou died prosti / Erinyes diedcowgirling /James died doc

SirSam is active
Faust is active
DD active
Farf passive
Tatsumaki passive

Asako then wojak then Hermit claimed vanilla

Gry ??
Holt ??
Brandish ??

For now there are/were 6 actives vs 5 passives known (vanillas included). So depending on what the other 3 are game might be 50-50 balanced between active passive (if no one is lying of course)

Does the active want to share something ?
Could the clown hide in the vanillas ? Clown is a passive role after all.
Of the 3 vanillas I only like Asako. Dont like the posts of the other two.
I find Gry very quiet and secretive, very unlike him. My first time seeing him like this.
I agree with him on DD tho, I find him weird.
Holt and Bran are acting like usual tho. And I can't read them well.

Hope my post is readable it's hard to type on a phone. Sorry for any typo.

 

[wojak]

The clown role is fit for

Asako then wojak then Hermit claimed vanilla

I used my night action successfully last night FYI

??
Did he actually claim vanilla in day1?

The clown role is fit for the usual brandish play

--- Double Post Merged, Oct 14, 2023 ---

I guess he becomes a bit more serious when he is mafia

--- Double Post Merged, Oct 14, 2023 ---

That being said how one approaches playing clown? Act quiet or normal in day1 and suddenly change behaviour to act intentionally act sus? To get lynched?

What other could one approach playing this role?

 

[Farfalla]

Also would the clown be very inactive ? If you're like 1 out of maybe 5 inactive people, you can't be sure you'll be the one lynched.

You can't control other peoples inactivity tho

 

[wojak]

Cannot risk Mislynching the clown

 

[Farfalla]

Ah yeah Hermit asked to be checked at night. Would a vanilla do it considering they can be millers? Isnt that a total waste of investigation?

Just your thoughts that you shared later
Stay with us later and don't disappear

He did claim vanilla today..

 

[SirSamuel016]

Three vanilla townies are too much for a game this small imo.

Potentially yes, but potentially no- depends on how hosts have balanced the game out. Out of you, Asako, and Wojak it'd be Wojak or you imo if one was to be scum.

Also just checking, you're referring to NVD here correct? Why Asako?

 

[digitaldude]

How would a check at night help, they can't tell if its a clown or mafia.

 

[Tatsumaki]

No, early day 2 he did.

You can't control other peoples inactivity tho

True which is why I'm not sure the inactive road is the right one.

Just your thoughts that you shared later

Well sorry for also having irl stuff to do lol.
But yeah I'll try to check thread more often or warn before disappearing.

Edit: typo

 

[SirSamuel016]

I agree that going the inactive route is lazy, especially with so much time left in the day. Plenty of time to press everyone, get some info and views from them to figure out who's the best lynch candidate.

@GrySun I think you should talk more about yourself, you're a bit reserved and more like red grysus than townie grysun to me atm

Do you have anything contributive to add? Analysis so far, who you suspect, what you got up to etc.

 

[Farfalla]

Ask that to Hermit, I'm just trying to follow his logic with the assumption he's indeed a vanilla and failing to see how that det request would serve the game.

The vanilla bois are always suspect. Three role claimers already died townie.
