So what I'm hearing is, if we have nobody else to lynch today, we should kill Blarg before the cultists do. Our doctor is now dead, so if we want to keep him alive, we need to rely on the existence of some other role which we don't know is in the game. Also, he had no information so seeing his role will do literally nothing for us.

I don't really see a good reason to keep Blarg around, nor do I see a reason to lynch him either. He's not really a free lynch since all this does is prolongs the game for one more day, yet he's not really a free night kill either.

So basically, we should just move on.

Surprise, I'm still awake, and I can't stop checking my phone. Now that I'm not stepping on anybody's toes, I can elaborate on this post:

Rats Off To Ya said:
I probably won't vote for Blarg today because I think he's a Tourist and I'm not in the business of voting for people I think are Tourists. I'm also hesitant to argue too strongly on his behalf, for reasons.
Click to expand...

I strongly suspected that Blarg had some significant pro-Town role and was merely using his behavior as a disguise. Anyone who read the Star Wars game could have come to the same conclusion. The reason for my reluctance to get in his corner is that I didn't want to spoil his gambit by inadvertently shining a light on it. I feared that even saying I thought he was a Tourist was going too far.

I figured the best way to keep Blarg alive was to argue as passionately as I could for somebody else. I still think Coppanuva is our best bet today, though I admit the wind has been taken out of my sails a bit. It appears I read more into Blarg's accusations than I was intended to, and that caused me to overvalue my hand. But I stand by my original case, which was largely composed before any of this happened.

Yea, at this point I don't see the behavior of either player as pro-town. You guys both fucked us. Matt probably has an alternate win condition, but since Blarg agreed with the no night eviction element for lynch day than it will probably let us continue playing the game. Will probably vote on Blarg.

"The human race will disappear. Other races will appear and disappear in turn. The sky will become icy and void, pierced by the feeble light of half-dead stars. Which will also disappear. Everything will disappear. And what humans do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. Good, evil, morality, feelings? Pure 'Victorian fictions'. Only egotism exists." - H.P. Lovecraft

And so while playing as Lovecraft in a Lovecraft-themed game, I ultimately validate Lovecraft's outlook on life through my actions; that in the end, there is only insignificance.

  • 'J K R' are the initials of J.K. Rowling, she wrote Harry Potter
  • Harry Potter's initials are H.P.
  • "CORRELATE" with game's theme; H.P. = H.P. Lovecraft
  • ID_SOLVENT (the initials H.P.) + SOLUTE2 (the obscure reference to Florida-dwelling R.H. Barlow, a known associate of H.P. Lovecraft) = ID_SOLUTION, which is H.P. Lovecraft

  • "-/- DO NOT MIX WITH ID_SOLUTION" refers to me not being affiliated with the Cultists; once you reached the point in my puzzle where you worked out there were a minimum of 3 Cultists, this phrase is basically telling you that I'm not associated with their faction ("DO NOT MIX WITH")

  • "we thoroughly explained that you must provide" is basically me generally asking for everyone's help (as in, any one of you) to provide the Cultists' identities and kill them; however, me italicizing 'you' in my posts often, was also a constant reference to the Other that was hunting me, who turned out to be Matt Attack

You sure got me caught read handed, Coppanuva. Here's some mighty fine praise.

I'm so happy you're all so suspicious of my lack of activity but it was literally dawn of day 2, no one was active, Blarg was just craving attention in his poor way of trying to act like a possessed Mabel Pines from Gravity Falls in the AM, what ever was I to do? Shit post some more for the sake of being active? Fellow players, PLEASE. I was monitoring this thread regularly but yesterday early PM in Europe I was out for the entire day and I don't post mobile, I've already confirmed this early on. So you'll have to trust me on this much.

I've skimmed over this thread and Blarg, HOW COULD YOU? I defended you, I literally stopped you from dying day one, how could you make everyone assume I was worthy of being hanged? Then y'all claim shit posting/filler AND potential cultist? Huh... WHY NOT BOTH?

I could be your martyr if you wanted, hang me, take me out the game to prove my innocence, I'll do it for you all just to shut you up and prove you all wrong.

Blarg vs Matt Attack

Aside from play style, I don't see why Blargs role is "pro-town" neutral. It looks to me that the only thing in his role that truly helps the town is our lynching him.

Matt Attack is trickier because his role could fall any way.
It could be a straight neutral role in which case he'll be removed in the morning if we kill blarg, since that is almost certainly the win condition.
He could be completely honest that he's town with the bonus of knowing about a way to get us a kill free night.
He could be cult aligned but I struggle to see the cult benefit to the role so I don't see that being likely.

I'm not going to vote right now, because I might not be back for a while and I don't think the decision needs to be rushed but right now I think we kill Blarg.


Questions for others/blarg

What in Blargs role makes him pro-town? I'm not talking about how he decided to play the role, I mean in the role itself what makes it pro-town rather than straight neutral. Personally I don't think that role is written expecting that the player uses their own sacrifice as a pro-town move.

In what way would Matts role benefit the cult?

-----------------------

So as for the matter at hand. I still think Blarg needs to go. Guaranteeing no cult kill is a lot different than hoping the cult will kill Blarg at night, effectively wasting their kill. That being said, I have another fear on this matter. Blarg seems like a prize, killing him by lynch gives the town a reward of no lynch that night. I'm willing to bet that there is a specific role amongst the cultists that specifically has the job of sacrificing Blarg's role and if they succeed then the cult has the opportunity for an extra kill that night or the following night. I notice some people brought this up already and I made it known before I went to bed last night that this was my worry. It's too risky to let him leave the day phase, I don't have faith that we have a way to protect Blarg tonight because there is no guarantee that we have another shield to place on him or a switcher role. Seeing as how Charleston posted already, my work is done with my vote and I want to cement my stance on Blarg

VOTE: Blargonaut

Don't push him to 11 to end the day though, there is a lot of good discussion here and we may be missing something.

I think our main issue was you kept your head low whenever big topics arose and this post kind of reads as you doing it again. The big discussion piece right now is Blarg vs. MattAttack but you go right to Coppa instead. It does read as odd but I do think there are bigger fish to fry right now. This post doesn't help in my eyes.

well this is a headache

conclusion: We should probably lynch Blarg now as a night free of a Cultist killing gives info roles more of a chance to gather intel, as opposed to saving it for later when some are likely to have already died.

The result will likely be the same from a numbers perspective as if the Cult had killed one of us off anyway, as I think this is MA's win condition and he'll be removed from the game, but at least then we're down to Town v Cult without any added mess and we can actually focus on pointing fingers at people who look really fucking shady but are easily gliding under the radar because of these continued complications offering an easy way out.

This is where I'm at too. Blarg has already confirmed himself that lynching him will give us a free night. I was already pushing from the beginning that we just need to remove distractions so we can focus on the real problem of cultists. Killing Blarg now has added benefit for us and clears those distractions right up. Then we will head into day 3 just about the same as day day 2 was and we can start fresh on all of our thoughts. I say almost the same because there is still another killer out there but we have no way of controlling that variable at the moment.

You should be aware of the dangers of passivity, though.

Whew. That was a fun read.

OK, so I believe Blarg's role (as it was corroborated by Matt Attack). However, I don't know if he's town-sided or not, still. As far as I can tell we've got three options tonight:

Lynch Blarg: Get all the information about his role and likely save us from a cult night kill. Sounds good to me.

Lynch Matt Attack: Get all the information about his role, probably find some more info on Blarg. Problem here is Matt Attack could very well be town (as could Blarg). But lynching him doesn't gain us as much as lynching Blarg.

Lynch Coppa: He continues to act suspicious and is our most actual cult candidate for today. Given the new information, I think he might be our best bet.

It's important to note, if we decide to keep Blarg around for another night we probably should protect him. Cult killing Blarg and getting two night kills is very, very bad. And here's the unique thing about Blarg: we've got to kill him eventually. The longer we wait, the more opportunity the cultists have to take him out. So we've got to tread carefully.

That being said, I'm unvoting for Blarg as of now. My current thoughts of Blarg's alignment is that he's either neutral or town. I don't think he's a cultist any longer. As for Matt Attack, I simply think he's a town who thinks it's in our best interest to lynch Blarg as soon as possible.

UNVOTE: Blargonaut

In my personal opinion, we need to either lynch Blarg today to ensure we get the kill-free night or let him live tonight, protect him, and try to go after one of our other cult leads. The problem with the latter plan is the longer Blarg is left alive the greater the risk.

VOTE:Coppanuva

I change my mind. Don't kill Matt Attack today. He's a Town investigator, right? Or at least, that's what he claims to be.

If what he says is true, that means the two of us are extremely powerful pro-Town roles. One investigator. One insane night-kill blocker. OUR ROLES ARE ALREADY KNOWN TO ALL OF YOU.

So you gain nothing, no info, by killing either of us tonight.

By keeping us BOTH alive tonight, you divide the Cultists' attention between two high priority targets; they'll have to divide their forces to engage both of us, which, if there are more protective/switcher Town roles hidden amongst you, gives you a greater chance of saving the either of us.

So, we lynch Coppanuva, just as we had planned before this whole debacle; that way, we shed some light on a completely unknown quantity that already has a record of acting suspicious.

You want to see if the Cult/remaining players are capable of a double Night kill? You want info on an unknown role? You want to potentially keep both your pro-Town cards in play for a bit longer?

LET'S FUCKING ROCK. WE GOT THIS.

Uncalled for, but I understand your reasoning. Aren't you now doing what you're faulting me for? After all, you were (admittedly) inactive daytime yesterday, and are now trying to get close to others by joining one of the lynch bandwagons on me.

That said, I agree with Sorian that you're not the most pressing target for the time. Today is for us to deal with this whole blargonaut/Matt Attack debate.

Important question: CAN we protect Blarg? We have no Doctor. I agree that saving his ability until closer to the end is wise, but can we actually do that? If not, it would be wiser to trigger the ability now,before the cult takes it from us. (and if Sorian is right, uses it for themselves.)

BTW, I apologize if I seem argumentative. I'm just trying to see the puzzle from all angles. The HP Lovecraft reveal seemed ridiculous, especially combined with the Neverending Story as Terminator twist, but Blarg's puzzle reveal makes me think that it must be true.

You want to see if the Cult/remaining players are capable of a double Night kill? You want info on an unknown role? You want to potentially keep both your pro-Town cards in play for a bit longer?

LET'S FUCKING ROCK. WE GOT THIS.

No. Nope, no no no. What makes me suddenly so suspicious in your eyes Blargonaut? Last night you admitted you singled me out just to fuck with me. Now I'm the best option despite the fact you labeled 4 other potential candidates? Why? What justification? It seems to me like you're simply pushing me out there because I'm the target you can push votes on most easily.

We have plenty of time left. Let's see what some of the people you suggested we look at have to say. OceanicAir's replacement seems to be talking, but I haven't seen much from Neuromancer in a while other than a vote for Sorian which we seemed to have ignored for the most part. So neuromancer, opinions?

Vote: Neuromancer

Uncalled for, but I understand your reasoning. Aren't you now doing what you're faulting me for? After all, you were (admittedly) inactive daytime yesterday, and are now trying to get close to others by joining one of the lynch bandwagons on me.

That said, I agree with Sorian that you're not the most pressing target for the time. Today is for us to deal with this whole blargonaut/Matt Attack debate.

I'm not really clinging to anyone though, I'm definitely the biggest wild card because I seldom EVER agree with anyone and yet the majority of times people come to conclusions together about me or think I'm a true mastermind who is keeping his power level low in order to usurp victory when the time is right. I was inactive for a period of time though, that much is true.

People are coming to the conclusion of Blarg right now, I won't take my vote away, not just yet. Blarg promises things but it's not really hard to lie.

I change my mind. Don't kill Matt Attack today. He's a Town investigator, right? Or at least, that's what he claims to be.

If what he says is true, that means the two of us are extremely powerful pro-Town roles. One investigator. One insane night-kill blocker. OUR ROLES ARE ALREADY KNOWN TO ALL OF YOU.

So you gain nothing, no info, by killing either of us tonight.

No, I do not want to see if this is a possibility. At this stage in the game, the only way we'd know if that is a possibility is if they activate it and I do NOT want to allow them to have a double kill. The problem with keeping you alive is we don't know if there is any way to protect you and I'm not handing you over to cultists on the off chance you are worth something to them. On the flip side, the cult might ignore you thinking that a possible switcher will switch you tonight so they will go for someone else instead which would not give us the free night of no kills like we need. This is the best time to use it, we probably are going to lose two tonight without it because of that third party, now we can just lose one and it will be to someone who already killed on cultist. I don't want to lose a real investigator role because we sat on this instead of using it.

To RetroMG: I agree with Blarg on this one, do not ask for hints on anyone else's role. We had one needed role claim today, we need no other hints to give the cultists more targets.

Wasn't my intention, just trying to discuss whether or not keeping Blarg alive is even a feasible project. If so, we should definitely do it. If not, we might be best served using the ability today.

I want to point out that the vote for me was ignored and Flame_AC even said later that he would place a vote on me because he knows I won't get lynched. Sure, I know I'm town so that's easy for me to gloss those over but I urge everyone to be careful on assumptions like that. Not all of our cultist kills are going to be so easy, you shouldn't be giving anyone a free pass unless you know for sure that they are town and at this point, information like that should, theoretically, be scarce.

Just a helpful reminder, I do know what you are getting at though and I don't think we have any way of knowing that keeping Blarg alive is a feasible project. It's always safe to assume that town has at least one protective type role but we already saw our one dead. We can't know that there is more than one and I don't feel comfortable gambling by keeping Blarg alive, it seems like a bad bet.
