Upick 2: Electric Boogaloo

[Book Wombat]

I'm still catching up with this matter about Neutrals/Serial Killers/Survivors, but I feel it has been missed my power also mentions them:

More precisely the wordings are "a Serial Killer", "a Survivor".

- - - Updated - - -

Although they're not really a key component of my role.

I sure do hope it doesn't have a negative effect on me.

[Captain Cap]

I sure do hope it doesn't have a negative effect on me.

If you're a survivor I'm not touching you with a ten-foot pole.

[Book Wombat]

If you're a survivor I'm not touching you with a ten-foot pole.

What about an 11 ft. pole?
To be serious, that sounds good.

[Rogan]

Yes Rogan. I can win with the role who only wins if everybody else is dead. You got it in one.

As far as I know, a standard SK can win together with a Survivor?

[Snowblaze]

Probably going to leave it here for the night. My legacy, in case I get horribly murdered:

Meta/Elenna/Batcathat
Taffimai/Fext/Moonfly
Rogan/Captain Cap/AvatarVecna
Supagoof/gac3
bladescape/Xihirli

Note one: Book Wombat left off as neutral claimant. Given what Captain Cap said it’s almost certainly a true claim.

Note two: this is in terms of least to most wolfy. Whether someone could be SK doesn’t factor into this at all.

Note three: bladescape in case he still cares about that.

[Book Wombat]

Random observation, UPick #1 ended on Night 3 with 11 pages (12 counting the "aftermath") while #2 is already over that on Night 1. The difference in having 16 players as opposed to 10.

There was no Survivor in UPick #1.

[Rogan]

There was no Survivor in UPick #1.

Maybe it was in the recruitment for Crazy Idea?
I am quite sure I had read this somewhere...

[Book Wombat]

~ 2.8 hours left...

[Rogan]

NIGHT 1 START

This phase will end on 19/10/2021 at 21:00 GMT.

A few notes:

• You'll notice the day is 47 hours, which shouldn't make much of a difference but don't get caught out by it.

~ 2.8 hours left...

Tonight is extra long. More than 24 hours.

...
Me dumb.
Ignore this and my previous message please, thanks a lot.

[Rogan]

ROGAN: Xi
FEXT: Xirhli, Bladescape
SNOW: Xihirli, bladescape
BATCATHAT: Rogan

Night action vote overview. Since blades seems unlikely to target himself, it seems like Xihirli and I are the preferred targets right now.

I can live with this - at least I hope so...

Me dumb.
Ignore this and my previous message please, thanks a lot.

Never!
You are trying to create a false sense of urgency. A classical scammer move. You should die immediately

1. If there's a seer, check AV. I don't trust 'em and their powers sound weird.
2. If there are two seers (or the like), check Fext too. The overlap is giving me some pause.
3. I don't like Xihirli's reluctance to comment on her night kill post, but she's a wildcard. We can deal with her later.
4. I don't see what Bladescape's game is. If he's town, the dogs know, so he mostly just confuses us.
5. Rogan owes us a very good explanation (he defended Caoimhin and the Cape might have defended him early on). I'd also like to hear moonfly's reasoning for defending CTC, for that matter. But those can wait 'till daytime rolls around.

Also, am I even in this game anymore? No one suspects me of anything and only Snow is on the record that she does not suspect me of anything.

Just a note. We don't know if wolves have a watcher. So take these as suggestions. Don't necessarily stick to anything said publicly.

To clarify: I don't actually think Captain Cap is a wolf, I think I mentioned in my gac3 ISO that seeing Caoimhin's vote for him made me feel a lot better about him. I just want to try and get a bit more certainty on that read.

I want it pointed out that while I am not a wolf, I don't think Capes vote should clear me or even make me look better. If it's the vote I'm thinking of, it was for a reason that was incorrect and easily proven wrong. So if we were both wolves, it's an easy distancing move that could be used without having to give a real reason for moving the vote off me.

Still catching up.

Huh? So this is my hidden power.. makes sense. But where is the role reveal?

Ha! You nearly got me. But now I know your role. You are Elan, the Bard. And you used your illusion magic to fake your death.

If this is true then two people have basically revealed their role name?

[Rogan]

Two people?
No comment about the truth of the Elan reveal

[gac3]

Well then maybe I'm wrong if other people didn't see it. Or it's the type of thing drawing attention to would out. Either way, I don't want to make it more obvious since I think this person is town and there is a chance based on the opening posts that making their name more obvious than they already have, will cause them some kind of trouble.

Wha– what? How did you— ehem, What could you possibly mean? I'm... uh.. Neal, that's my name. Yep, definitely Neal, don't know what you're talking about.

Fair. I won't ask you for more speculations. Maybe after the death of a scum member with a power related to the identity.

Neal..? Ahh, yes! Of course, you are neutral after all... I'm sorry for taking you for someone else who is totally not related to you in any way. I'm so stupid sometimes.

You know, it's a pleasure to talk to you, but I'm afraid we might disturb everybody else. They probably want to sleep at night. But let's talk again tomorrow, okay? *Wisper* And don't worry, your secret is save

[Supagoof]

You do know how to make a good entrence, Goof. Am I the only one who imagines this the way a professional wrestler enters the ring?

Are you ready to RUMBLLLLLEEEEEEE!!!!!

Takes notes.

So, my thoughts thus far...

Role claiming. I don't have a SK role , and I didn't play U1, so I'm unawares of the OP of that role. Can someone give me the quick notes breakdown of it?

Last game I did the song and dance to ride the razors edge of "looking wolfy to avoid the night kill/not wolfy enough to avoid the day lynch". This game, I have reasons to not worry about that. So here's my thoughts on everyone.

AvatarVecna!Town - I want to point at you tomorrow because OMGUS still from our last game, but I'm not seeing anti-town (which again, is a reason why OMGUS). Got me eye on you.
Captain Cap!Mafia - just maybe because I haven't played with him before, or maybe because the erraticness of his posts.
Snowblaze!town - I got nothing on ya. Feeling townish at this point.
Batcathat!town - Cause

Spoiler

Show

SupaGoof!town - I know my role, it will kill BTW, only in the Fugees sense, and it's not the SK....
CaoimhinTheCape!Mafia - cause that Unavenger guy got it right. Need to pay attention to him, I feel his posts are the only thing I can count on.
Taffimai!Sus - not getting the townish vibes, but I may need more input
gac3!town - Not enough to go on from the posts.
Book Wombat!Neutral(townish) - Cause

Spoiler

Show

Fext!Sus - why no point? You did post, unlike me because of AFK
Moonfly7!town - I'm seeing townreads.
Xihirli!Sus - I'm not seeing townreads, which is usual for Xi's style of play, but makes you sus still the same to me.
BladeScape!town - Because needs more syrup.
Elenna!town - Only motivation was to kill Xi for prior games.
Metastachydium!town - Pinged Cao right off the bat. For even the most advanced level of wolfiness, that's would be a bad idea.
Rogan!Town - for similar logic to AV, though I'm not seeing as much townread, but he's so very very helpful. @V - see?

Book Wombat!town - Cause

AV as the serial killer had 3 powers. A (public) daykill with no way to protect against. A night kill immunity. A nightly scry for role and alignment. She also had the ability to swap any of her powers to something else (random, didn't use it). So pretty strong and in conjunction with her skills, enough to win the game.
She posted her complete power descriptions here some posts ago.


Book Wombat, the True Neutral Neal, is a natural. Not town. But he seems nice, so he can be an honorable townie as far as I am concerned.

Also, I think I might now what gac3 means because of a random comment on a Discord server, emphasis on "might".

I hope, this random comment was not made by anther player of this game. Outside communication is not cool...

Very unlikely, was in the form of a meme in a server about a web serial

[Rogan]

Okay, that's a relief.

And now for something completely different:
It feels like I could die tonight and I still would have more posts than some of the other players at the end of game...
Does this mean I speak to much? Or are those other players too silent? (Goof is excused for the moment, because of WE)

I honestly don't think you can quantitate what is too silent or too much talking. I think some people just talk more, some less.

[Book Wombat]

Hey gac3, is the person you're thinking of purple? Really not sure, I might be totally off.

[bladescape]

Me: I have a power, who should I use it on.

Multiple people: Use it on yourself lol.

Me: I'mma not do that.


So Cap/Xi/Rogan is my list right now.

Cap and Rogan tied rn.

You can use it on me. Unless it will kill me. Can't guarantee it will be useful without more info but feel free.

Since you asked for wolf reads, I am going to assume it is either an harmful power or something to detect evil. I would rather not die (at least, not for receiving one vote), but a scry or something like that would be fine.
If I had to pick between Gac and Cap, I would go for Cap. Gac volunteering seems more likely to come from town.
In theory I have a vote left, but I don't really suspect either one. So unless I find something suspicious, I won't vote for another one.

I will also go to bed soon. If you need me now, hurry. Otherwise, wait til tomorrow.
