M55: The Last Party - Game Thread

[Chaqa]

If I'm not mistaken, Chaqa had said that his power was spent, but now foodcoats is making a veiled claim that appears to be that he has gained access to Chaqa's QT.

If people keep lying or showering us with half-truths it is very hard to read them as town.

I bet it Tom was the one who had been involved in all this you’d be praising it as brilliant play. Bias, much? lol

[e.m.c^42]

As for EMC, I wonder if he was compelled to go all-in because of Chaqa outing him?

You think I'd commit this much as scum? I'm flattered.

Have you ever committed this much as town?

I think so, but not with as much available free time. Main difference is all my posts were consolidated into large paragraphs and response percentage was low.

[e.m.c^42]

We are assuming the NK was redirected to foodcoats and failed, so would the scum performing the NK get a message saying foodcoats was not NKed?

You are presuming his whole thing about commuter was just for show then? Since unless we have a third party jailer type of action, then he obviously already knows what happens.

The only way this works is if they were aiming at food in the first place.

I do not think that is what happened, but the scum performing the NK probably knew what was going on.

Hmm. But there are probably other actions as well, yeah?

Lmao, we ain't got the reputation to pull it off.

DID SOMEONE ACTUALLY SAY THAT THEIR ACTION FAILED? BEFORE THIS? I DONT REMEMBER THAT AT ALL

If scum dont have daychat this might be someone signalling the correct answer

My purpose with that particular phrasing was to try to draw a bad answer from EMC. Others had already discussed the jailer and that actions hadn't gone through since the target couldn't be found. When Brain asked, though, he basically led EMC to the right answer. Go back and read his question to EMC. I forget exactly what he said, but my recollection is that he asked EMC what happened with his action, and then basically gave him the answer by asking "did it fail or were you unable to find the target." My hope was that if EMC saw my clarification, he would mimic it in his response, and thereby out himself as having lied. Which is not what happened, obviously.

Interesting.

But there was something with eclipses right? Because EMC guessed 3?

@jamiet?

Anyways, whatever.

This is fair, to an extent. I was actually feeling mainly town vibes coming from Donny in all his posting, and was fearing it was just deer-in-the-headlights town. There was a reason why I was pushing him to respond to me with the quickfire questions. There was a reason I kept asking him about the way he found the information. I was really hoping he'd at least give me a reasonable out how that thing couldve ever come from town.

As scum pushing town I wouldn't be doing that.

This doesn't make any sense. Who steps on the gas when there is a deer in the headlights?

Why are you refusing to answer the question about the crumb?

Because they are crumbs for a reason

[e.m.c^42]

emc really doesnt ever play like this. hes been scum before and it was nothing like this

I've been town and 3P and nothing like this, haha

This is scum trying to pocket and be on the right side of a wagon with fake or underspecified reasoning.

Youre seeing it as well EMC.

Help me wagon brainbomb.

You've become me, haven't you realised? But also puppies and positive feedback for good behaviour.

[e.m.c^42]

Where did teacon come into this from all of sudden, I'm confused.

[Vecna]

I found foodcoats absent and unfocused, but I am convinced he is a Bolt, and that is likely a town role. I could vote for neph, Bismarck, or someone else (tin foil hat theory) that I will probably post when i return tomorrow.

Holy motherlord of all unicorn dildo's, what a scummy post. Instant-add darg to lynchlist.

Is it significant that a number of people have called the Lighning Rod role "Bolt" or "Bolt Thrower"?

It seems to me that if Bolt Thrower was a related role, it would be one that is targeted at someone rather than activated on oneself. Could it be the case that someone threw a bolt at foodcoats that made him attract the rest of the actions, or is that too far fetched? Why are people calling this role Bolt Thrower?

I get your reasoning, but the flavour though xorxes....the flavour strongly implied the lightning was focussed on the guy yelling wasnt it?

When Vecna crumbs it's always more to troll than anything else lol

and that isn't entertaining enough to be one

Vecna said he was soft claiming his role, I think summit_fever was looking at the wrong words in that post.

[xorxes]

Also, think of all the games where you feel the need to scumread brainbomb while he's town. Yet here you do not feel that urge. Why do you think that is?

Read my posts on his progression on certain people.

He is just positioning. He's not actually trying to solve. He is carefull. Tries not to piss off people.

Why does scum!brainbomb claim to know food's role at start of day, apparently thinking Commuter? That's something I have been trying to figure out unsuccessfully.

I think his initial reaction at being told "you cannot find him" was that Foodcoats had commuted.

I know. The question is, why would brain, if he was scum, want to tell this out loud to everyone?

[e.m.c^42]

Neph, come back? Or have you gone back to sleep.

[Jamiet99uk]

There was a Lightning Rod, Vecna.

That's how a Lightning Rod works. It redirects your action from whoever you meant to target, onto the Lightning Rod, in this case apparently Foodcoats.

However in this case, if there was also a Jailor or similar, then they would be redirected onto Foodcoats, jail him, and thus prevent all other actions.

This was all explained in some detail earlier.

I know this Jamiet. Its just very unusual for the mod to tell you who you were redirected to.

That is not lightning rod canon at all. But it was later specified the role is also called differently.

I don't think that was specified.

The person claiming to be the Lighting Rod specified that it was called Bolt Thrower.

On the (reasonable) assumption that both Town and Scum visiting actions would get the same result?

Town points and the fact that he is at no risk outing himself unlike any other sort of night action alignment?

[e.m.c^42]

But I'm not sure I completely see it.

[kgray]

Nope:

The "Bolt Thrower" ?

Could you explain your role?

I assume it is like a Lightning Rod, but...

Im the Lightning Rod.

[Vecna]

Vecna. What are you thinking regarding your vote?

I wanna lynch:

Brainbomb
Maybe Bismarck (but ive cooled off on this)
Maybe darg
Maybe RHK

let me check my catchup notes who else was a scumlord
