Vote: Anubhav Ghosh

Me too. About the cult and arsonist thing.

But also if we are gonna vote the silent we should still vote better silent.

Works for me

Who's in your neighborhood Neon?

They get to decide if you get to know

and lol I'm not letting you lynch moot

Why?

I REFUSE to believe we had a cult and an arsonist in the same game

Why does the wagon on me looks like a desperate move to cut more down

Also I won't mind getting lynched, since I have exams starting off, and I will probably not even be able to put the same amount of effort that I did earlier, when Lau was alive

Is Dolby dead ?

The silent return from the silence when death is on the line

Is Dolby dead ?

No. 

and lol I'm not letting you lynch moot

Why?

because he's a pretty important role for late game town

Please stop the defeatist mindset, if you're gonna be busy ask to be subbed out rather than bringing down your whole team with you.

This might be the last day if we have another double kill tonight. We need to start weeding out the known threats. If NoName is unlynchable for now we should aim for the head of the second known one, Neon.

Okay here me out. Scum being in my neighborhood is a good thing for town so yanno you actually want that.

Please listen to me I'm the one who is running the neighborhood and trust me I'm well aware of how it works. There is no way for me to say what I mean without making obvious wolf targets that hurt my chances of doing what I need to do to win the game for town. I'm not lying.
I was not lying when I said I suck at this game. Or that I just like to roleplay and cause chaos. But this is the ONLY time that I have ever known what I'm doing in a game of Werewolf and I just need you to trust me.

The point of this neighborhood is NOT what you think it is.

I've been thinking about Neon claiming to be blocked and had initially just assumed that someone on the scum team has blocking power. But after doing a bit of investigating to try and figure out how to kill NoName before he burns the village to the ground I found some interesting tidbits in previous games. There was a game here, I believe it was WW7, that had a role called The Stranger. I've seen that name mentioned at least once in the flavor posts by the hosts, and possibly more often. The Stranger in that game had some interesting powers. They carried a machete and a Flamethrower, plus could use a roleblock on 3 different nights. The Stranger was actually part of the town that game, so not everything from the role has carried forward to this one, which isn't surprising since a lot of people have said that their roles/powers don't exactly match with the same role from previous games. So instead of being town aligned, we have an arsonist who is a 3p this game and wants to kill us all, but he's immune to lynch right now. That last bit wasn't part of The Stranger's role in the previous game, but there was a different character in the same game who DID have some form of invincibility - The Wendigo. The Wendigo was scum aligned and couldn't be killed by anything until all of the scum were dead first. I believe that our arsonist may have a combination of abilities/powers from both of those roles. He's a 3p who can douse anyone unless he gets blocked, he can block others (not sure if that's every night or just a one time thing, maybe 3 times like the original role). Abi did say that she knew Vro got blocked every night, and since NoName was her N1 neighbor selection it makes sense that she knew that he was blocking Vro, especially after Moon scanned Vro and told Abi that he was scum. I think it's possible that NoName is the one who blocked Abi the other night. Which begs the question of why? I think he figured out that she's a cult leader with her own victory condition and that she's getting very close to that win con and so he did what he had to do in order to keep her from adding to her following. In a lot of games that have a cult leader, if that leader gets killed then all of their followers also die. I think that's why NoName didn't come right out and vote for her after he discovered her true nature - it's quite possibly the easiest way for us to kill him. Just read the words she's said, and that I quoted above:

Scum being in my neighborhood is a good thing for town - this is patently ridiculous, but makes sense if we view her in light of being a cult leader with her own agenda instead of a town aligned neighborizer. Adding scum to her team gives her power over that member, remember that she said that Vro openly admitted to being a wolf in her chat, why in the world would he do that unless she had some sort of power to control his future. He didn't choose to reveal who his teammates were so she decided to get rid of him via lynch - a lesson for others in her cult?


There is no way for me to say what I mean without making obvious wolf targets that hurt my chances of doing what I need to do to win the game - yes I removed the final 2 words ("for town") because I think those were the lie tacked onto a truthful statement. She wouldn't divulge information that she knew because it would paint targets on some of the wolves and 'hurt her chances of doing' what she needed to do to win.


The point of this neighborhood is NOT what you think it is - and finally, the most bold and open statement of all. She told us herself that our views of what her group was (an innocent collection of neighbors trying to further the chances of town winning) was WRONG. She didn't lie. She has her own victory condition and that makes her as dangerous to the town as the scum team and NoName. We're having to fight 3 opposing teams instead of the normal 1 this time. I'm not sure that we can ferret them all out before they overwhelm us, but I do know for certain that we can take a step in the right direction by chopping off the head of the beast, and pray that her death also takes out NoName and any scum that she's recruited.
