    if im listed as scum we can lynch dob to kill me.

    so they have to risk cards on me if they want to. if blab lives and town!firms me we can make 0% doubt on my status.

    i dont want lyrim checked b/c of the minor doubt they mark her and toown!firm her. yes it can be applied to me, that why i am setting it up to counteract all possiblites

    ---------- Post automerged at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

    thats more no brainer: holys can only be town.

    all other roles are unknown b/c of card as well. that way if they try to track it against me it can be fixed.

    im putting everything in chain to where it can be set up. yes there are so many faults but i know im town, im town read, lyrims town read.

    so i want to remove all doubt and stop a WW game where one player pulls wool over all of us

    If I live I'll just ask for everyone's astrological signs and figure it out using their horoscopes.

    That's a good backup plan right?

    So here is the result of the astrological research:

    Lucky
    Ambitious, sociable, artistic, eloquent
    Element: Water
    Flower: Lily
    Fortune

    Snowvon
    Warm-hearted, amiable, loyal, inspirational
    Element: Air
    Flower: Rose
    Fortune

    Titus
    Confident, passionate, courageous, magnetic
    Element: Water
    Flower: Cineraria
    Fortune


    These three people, in my notes, are confirmed townies because only witches would be afraid of having their zodiac signs researched.

    Lyrium, go you for your effort.
    Here have a gold star. In fact, here, have all of them.
    If you can figure out a scum based on that you also get the sherlock smiley of sherlockyness:sherlock:.

    Last readpost (not really interesting but anyway):

    Readlist:

    blab: is town

    Riley: is basically guaranteed to be town.
    He is the only acolyte that gets away with putting me on top of his readlist and then not explaining why when asked...

    Citrus: is almost certainly scum. There are too many coincidences that need to have happened for him to be town.
    If he flips scum as I expect the only town!Citrus possibilities are Lyrium/Snowvon/Atum and Lyrium/Snowvon/ika with a heavy bias towards Atum...just no
    I eagerly await his flip.

    Lyrium: is almost certainly town by behavior, effort and interaction.
    (Also taking the gambler role out makes little sense with a witchtrick play)
    That makes
    Rubicon scum and
    KaiDASH town. Based on those alignments + Citrus + behavior
    fontisian is town.

    ika: is probably town. His thinking is coming from a town-perspective. Plus somebody would have caught him by now.

    LuckyLee: Eh, BOD play came probably from a town perspective. I could see him doing it as scum because he doesn't want to play on in this situation, but meh. Probably town.

    Snowvon: gets slight bonus points for cc'ing Citrus like he did. On the other hand he does fit with Rubicon+Citrus

    Bill Door: is probably town by behavior. I mean, he looks like town, but I think him able to fool me.

    Polysemous: is maybe scum. I waffle, on whether I want to protect him for being newbtown or whether to condemn him for being scummy.

    Atum: gets bonus points for the likelyhood that witchtrick has very likely happened. Rather observant in a way that makes me think he is town. Other than that, can fit very well onto a Rubicon/citrus scumteam, so yeah

    klackerz: May be scum. Fontisian vouched for him, though. I still don't understand why except for very meta reasons (like no switching judge to someone who has more experience).
    Note: I still want the judge plan to happen. If the scumteam wants to scum-firm klackerz, more power to them.

    Titus: has done +scum stuff (like bombing before flips).
    Suggested a lot of +scum stuff (like hypoclaiming).
    Had a scum reaction to votes on her(oversensitive),
    scum reaction to my case (hey contrast to Dermons reaction to ChocoPi's case in WH3, for a town reaction).
    Looked very much like looking for towncred early d1 for jumping on a lot of inane stuff
    Looks really bad by analysis of votes.
    Looks bad for giving preemptive excuses (if x flips town, I will look at whoever encouraged me to tunnel)
    Don't like her the reaction pre holyclaim Day 2 at all (didn't like Citrus's and Lyrium's either, Lyrium gets more slack for less experience though)
    Really don't like the constant misrep of my case and my motivation.

    fontisian and KaiDASH had townread her though, so whatever(for defensiveness, and looking like a townie that overplayed (plus a townslip, I guess?))


    Basically, I don't have strong scumreads left, except for Citrus and Titus. Which makes sense, cause there isn't really that much scum left in that world. A scumteam without Titus is possible, though.

    blab, you are epic. <3

    This was superfun. Doing the research just really confused me a lot so the next step will be how to actually analysis. I live for gold stars.

    A gathering of friends will bring you luck.

    Totally the best fortune, especially for mafia.

    I would say that's a pretty accurate description of me too. Nice horoscope.

    PLEASE STOP POSTING IMMEDIATELY.

    DAY 2 IS OVER!


    The sun was dying, and its blood painted the heavens red.

    There seemed to be no other way to describe what the inhabitants of the little town were seeing. The day and its horrors were dying with the sun, the last struggling red lights would be swallowed by the dark, and it would be night.

    And they hadn't chosen.

    Amidst the accusation, the confusion and the alcohol, chaos had reigned with a currency of finger-pointing, and they all came out bankrupt. They could not choose which of their own would die with the sun.

    Could they be faulted, though? The terror was real but these were human beings – what's more, they were lifelong friends and family. One did not condemn such relations to the fire without condemning their own souls as well! Men, women and children were not cattle! How could they be expected to make such a choice? It was monstrous! It was insanity!

    These were the thoughts that ran through the many, a comfort that they have done the right thing.

    One by one, these thoughts muted, as every eye drifted away from the ground and each other, coming to rest on an old building.

    The only building in the town almost as big as their church, and much better kept, of the white color of polished marble and the artistic design of wasted money. Its strong oak doors were also painted white, though a duller shade that comes from constant use, and before it was the statue of a woman.

    It was small symbol, but at that moment the woman towered over them all. She was naked but for her blindfold, yet nothing about her could be called sensual, simply rigid. On one hand she carried carefully balanced scales for all to see. In the other, almost hidden behind her thigh, she carried a scythe.

    She was their Justice, and in not choosing, they had invoked her Sword.

    But with the sun on its last breaths, how long until the Sword was unsheath--?

    The sound of trumpets broke their musings, and the oak gates opened.

    They all sucked in breath: A decision had been made.

    The sound of rattling chainmail filled the air as the town's guard moved into the streets with implacable symmetry, and perfect formation. Inhabitants, witches and mortals alike, hurried to seem to go about their business, but no eyes left the guard in the middle for long.

    While the rest had a hand over their swords, this one carried a pillow, with a single envelope in the center.

    People breathed in relief when that one walked past them, ignoring their existence, and as they kept on marching, the ones left felt the anticipation, the panic, slowly rising...

    The guards stopped before a man.

    The man, too, stopped, as still as the statue these knights spoke for. The one in the middle held out the envelope to him, while the rest moved so that they were around him.

    After a few endless second, the now-pale man reached for the envelope, broke the hammer seal, and read:

    "Citrus, son of Lime, you have been invited to audience in the Courthouse."

    Citrus licked his dry lips and looked to the guard, "I...heh, I don't suppose this is voluntary."

    The guard didn't reply. Citrus' new entourage stepped closer to him with equal silence.

    Swallowing, the man nodded, and they walked back. He kept his chin high, and his back straight.

    But the more perceptive of the villagers saw that his eyes were a storm, dancing all over, searching for something, anything, that would allow him to escape. Searching. Searching. Searching.

    He was still searching when the oaken doors closed with a booming clang, Citrus behind them.

    NIGHT 2 IS OVER!

    Glare. Stupid glare. The sun comes up on a brand new day. Birds chirp to celebrate the new dawn. The grass smells just a little bit better, like from a fresh cut lawn after a gentle rainstorm. Nothing is ever that perfect.

    The recent judgment of Citrus still loomed over the quiet brisk town. The courthouse doors creaked open again and the town guardsmen marched out at the dawn.

    K-CHINK, K-CHINK, K-CHINK the armor of each soldier moved with eerie precision as they moved to each person’s bunk in turn attempting to wake them for the dawn of the new day.

    One never knows when their last day or night will be their last, and the guards’ rotation was the not so subtle reminder that they may never wake up.

    As they come to each person’s bunk, a simple twist of the foot to wake them up usually works and they awaken with a groan or the occasional swear word as the group moves on. 1, 2, 3 so far so good.

    Everything seemed like it’d be okay. That everyone would awaken from the last night of slumber okay, but then at the last bunk…The drummer boy changed the beat from one of repetitious alertness to one of somberness. One of them did not make it through the night.

    The drumming got louder and louder until it felt like it could split heads. Those that new morse code would recognize the pattern of quick beats slow beats and pauses as a simple phrase repeated over and over and over. “Blab is dead. Blab is dead. Blab is dead.”

    With their requirement done, they turned back to the courthouse and towards their bunks and the group was all awakened with one less of their comrades, or was he a comrade? With the town the way it was, who could really know anything anymore?
