Stick. she/her Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 I can maybe see the elim team having 2 coinshots if all members are low-actives/lesser-experienced considering we’ve already had 2 village protect roles. That could explain why they didn’t fight so hard for Xino. My thoughts in detail can be found in last turn’s thread but here’s where I’m at: Wiz is solidly village, Mat and Kas I’m still leaning village albeit not as strong as last cycle. <TUN, Turtle, Shining, Archer> is where the my suspicions lie mostly. If Archer can get turtle’s flip then great, since I don’t think there’s much we can get off an exe discussion on them. I still very much do not see sufficient reasoning to clear Shining but I still need to properly read the last two pages from last turn so I’ll be doing that soon Will point out that e!TUN could just use the elim kill on somebody and simultaneously protect that player for village cred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shining Silhouette he/him Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 1 hour ago, Matrim's Dice said: You’re not claiming Coinshot, I hope >> Well, I'm just thinking, there were 14 original players and 4 different Blessings, so there should be an average of 3.5 players per Blessing, if you do the math. In my headcanon, I was thinking that there'd be roughly four of each Blessing, and it makes sense to me. Is it too crazy to consider a game with four coinshots, one elim and three village? Or even more terrifying, two elim and two village? I can't really comment on how this works distro-wise though. @Kasimir, any comments? The reason I bring this up is because I think it's safer to assume we're dealing with 6-2 odds rather than 7-1. It's definitely possible we've seen some e/e interactions but haven't noticed it because we've assumed one elim left. We should keep our eyes open to the worse scenario rather than assuming that because distro, we're only dealing with one. And fwiw, If Archer's a Coinshot, chances are he's Vil as I don't see Archer falsely roleclaiming- the reaction to the rules clarification seemed genuine to me. So I'm leaning Vil for Archer at this point. I think we have a solid village core, though with <Me, Mat, Wiz> and probably Kas. Maybe Stick/Archer as well. We have a good list of PoEs in <Turtle, TUN> and I'm thinking that @Archer we should just go for it as we can't really confirm V roles mechanically. As far as my reads go: Wiz, Mat Kas Archer, Stick TUN, Turtle With those to the right being slightly more suspicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat he/him Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 In my experience, roles are rarely divided evenly because that’s bad for balance So if you’re not claiming Coinshot then no, I don’t think there’s three village ones. Kinda hesitating about there being three at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shining Silhouette he/him Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Actually I'll claim Coinshot Earlier I made a big scenario tree of what could happen if Archer and I killed <Two Suspects> but then it got too complicated and lots of the branches were risky, so I decided not to claim. But after thinking about it it's probably better to claim so the village can have more informed info. So if V!CoinshotArcher (which I'm leaning at the moment), we almost definitely have another two elims I think. I'm trying to decide if Archer and I just go for it and kill some of the suspects to potentially win the game because there's not really a way to prove our roles.

Mat he/him Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 (edited) I'll be honest, the last thing I need right now are roleclaims that go heavily against my idea of a balanced distro >> @Archer what do you think about Shining's claim? And Kas please weigh in some opinions Edited September 26, 2022 by Matrim's Dice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archer he/him Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 (edited) Huh. That's a totally unnecessary fake claim for e!Sil to make. I wasn't planning to mention this until after the Night round, because information given away now benefits the elims and we could, you know, just wait until tomorrow. Anyway, I am not a coinshot. The plan was to force e!Turtle into the position of needing to negotiate with me to avoid their death, which would be elim-indicative. Or if they embraced it, probably village indicative. I wanted a read either way. Alternatively, I was thought saying I was about to be village cleared for taking a Night action would lead a crafty non-Turtle-elim towards NKing me, because I'd be a problem later while being less likely that Mat or Wiz to recieve protection. None of that worked out. But now that you've gone and claimed, Sil, we're in a tricky spot. One, you're a prime kill target because you have a villagery role and unilateral kill power. A smart elim will kill you to avoid getting sniped. A very smart elim will leave you alive because they need the mis-kill to have a chance. But you're on their radar now for sure. Two, please don't assume 2 living elims are left. Maybe this leads you to guess an elim protection role, but it's not 3 village coinshots to 1 elim coinshot. Sorry for the confusion. I'm getting villagery vibes from the two claimers this round (three if you count Mat), so my shortlist is now Turtle, Stick. I'll add myself to the suspect pool because as Stick pointed out, JNV could have submitted the kill. So we're looking at something like: NK: Sil. Coinshot: Turtle Exe: Stick NK: Wiz Exe: Me NK: Mat Exe: tied for e!TUN or e!Kas to win. Not bad. Edit: I haven't RPed yet. Uhhh AarChur was having indigestion problems. "Bleh!" they said, blobbily.

Kas had some good posts last turn of why Stick is village. Here, I'll actually just go grab a quote: Quote At around 2.5 hours to rollover, JNV votes for Stick. I'm not entertaining E!Stick anymore. This is a lot of nonchalance if Stick is Village. This solidifies the Stick train. Stick is Village, end of. Found in this post, more detailed stuff in there. But I agree.

Turtle Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 reads rn: Wiz: killed jnv, basically clear unless it was like, conq who Kas- lots of interaction n stuff, in a game where the remaining elim(s) are probably inactive or were at least inactive earlier I say vil Mat- ugh mat is always hard for me to read. Vibes diffrient from the QF I specced though so tentative vil TUO- for the same reasons im reading kas as vil tuo is a bit sus to me Stick-jnv interactions make them seem v/e imo Shining-claimed coinshot and I don’t really see two coinshot on the elim team unless there’s only one elim left Archer-seems pretty v so far tone wise I think?

If you are V!Coinshot, take the shot before you are NK this turn. I always read NK as nuked.... Nevermind, but take the shot tonight or you won't have a chance to take it. RP I suppose: WiiZaad sat in his house waiting, for the shadows to move. He had always waited ever since the time the shadows had broken his body. WiiZaad shivered, he had taken the shot and now he waited for death himself to greet him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mat he/him Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 TUN claims to have protection, which adds another layer of IKYK to everything since they’re probably my number two elim pick but there’s a chance you have some security there, Shining.

Also imo JNV's reaction to Symph/Archer seems genuinely bemused, so I'm leaning V!Archer at the moment. Another point- Stick also reignites the JNV train at a couple different times. Currently leaning V!TUN, V!Stick, and V!Archer as well as E!Turtle @The Unknown Novel, might appreciate a shield sent this way also 1 hour ago, Turtle said: being attacked and but being protected shows up as “attacked but survived”, right? Just so you're aware, I'm planning on attacking you tonight. If you really are V and have a shield, then use it to protect someone who you read V right now.
