    I agree with what has been said about role revealing because I am not a fan of it myself nor of "role call" (like in Town of Salem).  I only did it out of desperation since I obviously have a target on my back now.  Hopefully this scan ends up being useful.

  • I assume that the non-aligned wouldn't need to die for town to win.
    I wouldn't assume that.
    There are 10 Cores, 4 Turrets?, and 1 non-game ending unaligned player.
    That question mark concerns me, as does Aragonn displaying that he knows more than he's willing to share. I know we're all assuming he's unaligned due to entering in the late game, but... wow.

    But Batman sounds correct here. @Ruguo, can you confirm?

    I never said goodbye, so I shall say so in a song.  Actually no, I'll just wave and hope for the Turrets to win against the pitiful cores!

    I've been trying to role-play as Wheatley this entire time, but I'm breaking character for this.

    I just looked at the rules in the OP, and it said to please keep to paraphrasing anything out of thread. I would assume that also means your given role. Not gonna lie, directly quoting your entire role PM was pretty nasty.

  • Apologies for the late post. I have been discussing things with the dead all morning, and beofre we get to night events, there are a few things I must say.

    Kane has spent his last night as seer, and the role has been cut from the game, though Kane may remain. This is in response to the blatant role quote when the rules do state to stick to paraphrasing.

    Additionally, while a single third party cannot win the game by themselves and will share the win with town or turrets like normal, there is a faction of third party players that could win the game together. These players do not need to be killed for cores or turrets to win the game. This effect was triggered by the "glitches" entering the game.

    With that out of the way, here's your night results:

    Madeline Norfolk, GLaDoS has been killed


    Day starts now and will run until the 29th at the normal 3pm EST. Please keep things civil. If you want to attack someone, my inbox and discord DMs are open.

  • With all of the clues, I believe that me, Sapphiron, and Imaginative Kane are town. I think that Wintermoot and Aragonn are the non-aligned. That leaves one turret, and the people in contention are Arenado, Barnes, Doc, and Excalibur. Can each of you post your role (paraphrased) and what you did each night.

  • I've said my role at least twice at this point, which suggests if you were looking at evidence, you weren't looking particularly hard.
    But I append the text of both claims below just to make it abundantly super clear:

    Also, Pengu, Doc and Gerrick should be thoroughly investigated in the next day phase. Doc keeps joining wagons when they're already guaranteed to succeed.
    I've made clear in the past, investigating me is a double-edged sword, because I steal powers.
    Not borrow, steal; we literally switch roles. If multiple people do this, I steal all the powers, and you all get my role instead. I'm not really sure what would happen if all these roles got concentrated in me, like if I'd get to use all the powers every turn, or just one, which would be sort of shit, but, y'know, it's a thing.

    Below is the post where I first made this roleclaim:
    I'm also roleclaiming right now to avoid accusations that I'm being pessimistic because I'm scum looking to destroy people's hope: I'm town, I'm a g__ (the two letters left blank for ambiguity so scum don't know what the Correct Word is; I'm hoping to use it as a shibboleth if the worst comes to pass) and I'm something like a ONUWW Robber, except I only roleswap when I'm targeted by a night action.
    I'll leave it ambiguous if I roleswap when targeted by scum. DO YOU FEEL LUCKY, SCUM?

  • I'm the Music Core. 3 times this game I can block someone's night action. I've used it once, on Vro on night 2, because I was incredibly suspicious but it did nothing because Vro did nothing in that night phase. I think Barnes is a town, I don't know what Batman and Aragonn's deal is but something is up with the two of them, I don't think they are wolves, though. I have no suspicions beyond Doc, I think it's convenient that their role claim is a shield against being scanned and, well, it's Doc and Doc is always a wolf, it's the law, but it's nothing concrete so I don't know what to go for.

  • I mean, would I like it to not be a shield? Yeah, definitely.
    Do I think the fact that it is a shield is pretty funny? Sorta, considering that if you'd all targeted me like I was trynna reverse-psychology people into doing that I'd be the Ultimate Power In The Universe because I'd have all the powers. Which would be pretty sick.
    I do feel the need to stress though that despite the fact that people are suspicious of my role, none of you have actually bothered targeting me, a fact I know because I haven't gotten anyone's powers yet, so clearly I'm at the very worst in that sweet spot between 'I find your story suspicious in some capacity' and 'okay I've decided it's worth the risk-that-my-power-will-be-stolen of targeting you with (power)'. I figured that would be a much smaller area, but we all learn new things every day, I guess.

    Madeline Norfolk, GLaDoS has been killed
    Where's my flavor text!?

    Confirmed not-Turrets:
    Aragonn (as Wheatley the Idiot Core), Batman (as Morality Core), and Kane (as the 'not anything anymore' Core)
    Probable not-Turrets:
    Wintermoot (as either Atlas or P-Body, who might be Core or might be Nonaligned), Sapphiron (on the basis of Pengu mentioning him as a protection target, which to me seems like it'd be a Freudian slip, in the sense of 'obviously a defender would only defend Cores, so I won't pick someone who they will retroactively know was a Turret to defend'. And of course, being added late), Barnes (he's been on the right wagons early since the start), Me (You'll note, also the right wagons, and, again, obviously not suspicious enough to bother scanning, but if you want, fine, put me in the section below for your own analysis)
    ???:
    Aren, Excalibur

    Of the two I'm going to be suspicious of (because obviously I don't suspect myself), Aren was the more obviously suspicious to me, but then I looked at post history and Excalibur has made a grand total of 4 posts in this entire game (which, for reference, less than 1%, there's been 445 as of my post). That reeks of an attempt to fly under the radar, which is classic scum play.

    Vote: Excalibur
    I’m really sorry everyone. I haven’t been paying as much attention to the game as I should be, due to my RL work. I’ll do my best to keep up, but at this point I might request to be removed from the game.

    However, that is really suspicious when the only evidence you have of me is that I haven’t been posting that much. I will
    Vote: Doc

    I don’t know if he confirmed town or not, but I will keep my vote.

  • I might not be able to fully confirm whether Sapphiron is a turret or not but my scan of them before my ability was removed suggests they are a core and not a turret.  (This is because it is possible that the cake effect could have Sapphiron having scans show him as core when they are a turret since that was an effect in the last game.)

    Could we get a button push count @Ruguo?  I think it should be at least 2 right now but I am not completely sure at the moment; also do the votes of dead players get removed? if so we would be back at 1 vote there.

    I will think about the posts more before truly accusing anyone of being a turret though.
