Wisp was fairly sure he was going to be the NK.
In my wild ass guess I figure the reason that Wisp's premonition, for lack of a better word, turned out to be true was that the killers were working from the same base assumptions as Wisp was.
It was therefore reasonable (in this case) to assume that the killers aren't in {bessie, Madge, wam, Suzaku}, meaning the people who primarily played on the old xkcd forum. Unless of course you or one of the others have played with Wisp or some of these other people during the hiatus.

OK, I'm back. Apologies for missing most of D1.
I'll have some time for a proper read through D2 and a decent post later this evening.

If there's anything anyone wants to draw my attention to or specifically wants my reaction to, please let me know.

I think the only people offline were Madge and Suzaku. Perhaps the entire mafia team was already on SuperJedi. I don’t do wagon analysis but if you want to try go ahead.

This is total nonsense. Every townie is fairly sure they are going to be the NK every night (this should be confirmable in the Gojoe thread after the game). When I’m non-town I’m still worried I’m going to be killed every night.

I am suspicious with this remark you may be interested in deflecting suspicion from yourself.

Info: Sabrar, BoomFrog, Seven, LaserGuy, and I have all played with Wisp. Maybe Wam.

When you claimed you said you got a non-player neighbor later in the game. Will your neighbor be someone that is not in this game?

@Madge no results from me. Also no breadcrumb. I just thought of you when I was reading it because it's like historical fantasy-fi.

@bessie that's how it was for 3DSNinja if I recall correctly. He was given a set of nonplayers he could choose from at the beginning. Which means no return of Wisp :(

Seven why shouldn’t we policy you?

Because imho to me it’s between you and Morgan.

I don’t know my post count and have work so been quiet.

I don’t see how Morgan is town considering they know me if they are indeed Vaimes.

Finger guns.

Wisp is experienced enough that he could probably conduct himself in a way that he felt was less likely to be night killed. But yeah. Assuming he was going to be the NK because he did and ergo assuming everyone would feel similarly and ergo assuming that the kill was done by an outsider has me a bit confuzzled.

I am remembering a game (admittedly a couple of years ago now) where he had a confirmable role, and so played a lot less ambitiously so that he'd get closer to endgame. Scum ended up shooting him because of his role, but he wasn't a consideration for an early NK.

I've played with Wisp a few times and followed a fair few games hes been in :)

ok u literally did

I'm anti "lim all liars" as a policy (its good as like, a holistic meta ploy to correct a poor play across several years; but it's also unlikely to win games because town lie too, all the time :P)

but reading the room, you trying to walking back on it like this is going to rub people the wrong way

if you have more to add about your misplay at the start of this phase, I'd encourage doing it now. if you don't, I'd encourage owning that you misplayed and moving on.

it sounds like it's "risk free" for scum and i don't like that

vote: seven

@bessie as my living townread do you have anything to tell me

BESSIE'S READS SO FAR TODAY:
Morgan scummy
(no reads in next post but I'm keeping eye out)

WISP'S READS FROM YESTERDAY:
Wants to kill Jedi (seems to want town to vig)
Last will was that they think wake/morgan/bessie/seven contains at most 1 scum
Previously had a scumread on moody that they kind of abandoned

CLAIM RELATED NOTES:
the worst visited wisp (claimed by Seven, recanted???)
mathblade blocked the worst (claimed by mathblade, confirmed)
the worst doesn't have a targeting role (claimed by the worst)

Just ftr I think if mathblade hadn't counterclaimed seven would have proceeded quite differently so my vote is there in spirit as well I was just being nice to lull seven into a false sense of safety

Actually
[v]Seven[/v]

one scum in {seven, mathblade}

I don't think I did. I implied it.

As for why I recanted the implication after you posted, well that's all I ever intended was to your response. Had I continued on it with, town would have been confused throughout the day. Didn't want people working with wrong info for too long.

Last post for me for the 24 hours. I think this dynamic is good. I think there’s one scum in Madge/Seven leaning Seven here.

Depending upon what happens in the next 24 will vote accordingly so Worst can sheep.

Interesting. In what way do you believe it is risk free? If he was eliminated, I would be eliminated or vigged soon after, no?

As for what I learned. I learned that Ducky doesn't have a targeting role so if we eliminate another mafia member that's not Ducky, then we will know that any visits from him are night kill/mafia actions (assuming 3 mafia). I also learned that he is indeed just as scummy as yesterday. His reaction to my claim wasn't genuine. This is way overdramatic:
the worst wrote: Sat Nov 27, 2021 12:05 am actually stuff it

Seven can u pls explain why I shouldn't turbo eliminate you for outing power roles for no damn reason?

What was your intention here? Even if I'd visited Wisp last night what do you think I would do lol
He's acting like being a PR is something special when this is a role madness game. Additionally the answer to the last line is obvious as WMU already pointed out (killing Wisp). Lastly, if you look at his responses to me so far, he's been approaching me from the perspective that I'm town, not scum. He knows I'm not scummy enough to eliminate so he's been pushing the policy angle. This is not the response of someone who thinks mafia is going at them:
the worst wrote: Fri Nov 26, 2021 11:43 pm
Seven wrote: Fri Nov 26, 2021 6:09 pm the worst visited wisp btw
I don't have a targeting ability just fyi :c
For what it's worth, I also think your response, Madge, is overdramatic. Considering there were all but 6 hours between my soft claim and retraction, "making your job harder" is a bit much. Additionally, you're well aware of my playstyle. I lie in every game. While I don't expect you to remember any of the past xkcd games, you did just host a game with me as a player. [If you want a good example though, see Stellaris mafia where you and I directly engaged in the same manner].

Anyway, notice this whole policy thing is only being pushed by those outside the town core. It's pretty obvious that scum are reaching for an elim here. Most likely I think The Worst + Mathblade I think (as opposed to The Worst + Madge) as I don't think The Worst would have voted their if Madge was his partner. He was waiting for a town member to vote first.

Nah,it's a soft. Hard claims involve a reference to the self. I already answered your other question: nothing, I just wanted to see what would happen. We flipped mafia day 1 which means the rest of this is going to be a slog as people are insistent on using all of the day time each Day rather than just hardbodying / quick eliminating everyone outside of the core. So I'm just sitting here doing whatever to pass the time until the end of the day when we eliminate one of you or MB.

Is Math blocking the worst literally the only reason anyone is townreading him? Is that what we’re working with?

Math, based on my memory, your play is incredibly milquetoast and careful. You’re being self-conscious with your vote and it’s another reason I think you’re mafia.
