Mafia/WW Red Atlantic Cruise

[Caerulea]

Come aboard, all, and join a few weeks of beautiful nature, exotic cities, and unique experiences. The rumours about some crazy person targeting our cruise? Nonsense. It's even endorsed by the heads of several nations! Come, one and all, and let the games begin.

Hacker:
There are a suprising amount of camera's and mikes around the place. At night, you can watch one person, learning who targets them and if they target someone. If you target the same person as [REDACTED] then you are informed that they targeted the same person.
Cook:
You're in charge of providing food for everyone. No one will notice if you slip a little extra in, right? Once per night, you can select a player. That night, they can't take actions.
Medic:
You are tasked with saving lives, and keeping everyone safe. Once per night, you can select a person. If they would die that night, they don't.
Newlywed couple:
You are on your honeymoon, and everything was going great. Was. Now that it seems you're in danger, you'll have protect yourselves. You do know one thing, however. You can trust each other. The Newlywed couple starts out in communication with each other, and know each other's role. However, if one of you dies, the other dies of grief as well.
Psychologist:
You can select a person each night. You learn if they are capable of killing at the end of the night.

Additional Town roles will exist, but have additional win conditions and powers.

Madman:
Who knows? You're insane.

Days and Nights will be 48 hours and end at 00:00 EST. If I'm not able to be on, I won't count votes/night actions after that. In the case of a tie, the person who reached that count first will be lynched.

AvatarVecna/Least Trustworthy Person*	4

Caerulea	1
All Twelve Wolves	1

To nobody's surprise, AvatarVecna is on track to die.

In other news, Unavenger is currently has a slight lead over AvatarVecna in the polls to become mayor.

[flat_footed]

Avatar Vecna. There! I said it!

[The Outsider]

Don't let last game make you lose sight of the real enemy. Rest assured, Xihirli is still a menace.

[Xihirli]

That hurt my feelings. Now apologize or I shall never return your cousin's thumb bones!

[gac3]

I'm still on board with Avatar Vecna

[Silent_Interim]

I'm still on board with Avatar Vecna

gac3 for what was probably an unintentional pun but which still made me mad with its sheer casual brilliance.

[Snowblaze]

Grek, because the RNG said so

[gac3]

Oh.... Because of the cruise ship thing? Yeah that was unintentional.

[AvatarVecna]

AvatarVecna is the only logical choice, so much so that I haven't even checked my role yet before posting this.

(Also Snowblaze, you wanna put your vote in [color=red]Vote goes here[/color] to have it stand out.)

[BasketOfPuppies]

Hey Caerulea can you put the recruitment post in the opening post?

[Valmark]

So... Every two times I wake up someone will be dead The Outsider? (Nothing personal, you were the first on the list without votes)

Had to select four colors because I couldn't find red, didn't think daltonism would come in play here.

[Unavenger]

Snowblaze for inviting the wrath of RNGsus upon us.

[Snowblaze]

In that case, I shall vote non-randomly: Unavenger.

[gac3]

I feel like we have lost track of the real enemy here.

[Caerulea]

Hey Caerulea can you put the recruitment post in the opening post?

Very well. Done.

[Valmark]

Isn't the real enemy ourselves though?

[Elenna]

I dunno, I'm still down for AvatarVecna.

[Unavenger]

Isn't the real enemy ourselves though?

I thought we established last game that the enemy was wolfery (and the role keeps out the enemy, etcetera)

[Valmark]

What a twist would it be if there was a game with ALL wolves. I think I actually red it somewhere of someone wanting to run a game similar to that.

[JeenLeen]

I feel like we have lost track of the real enemy here.

Indeed.
We were told not all is as it seems, so I'm voting Caerulea. Let's see if anything comes of it.

More rationale: AvatarVecna mentioned a hypothetical game where the narrator was the wolf and the game was figuring that out. I kinda doubt Caerulea is playing a game like that, but maybe voting for her will reveal something somehow about what's true and what's false.

[BasketOfPuppies]

At this point the idea that you need to lynch the narrator is a bit too jokey to be a good twist. Unless that’s why Caerulea wants me to think, in which case that’s exactly what’s going on. But wait, I hear you say. This is sounding like a WIFOM moment, so I should probably stop. But what if that’s exactly what Caerulea wants you to think- that because this is too WIFOM-y it isn’t a path worth exploring? It’s not just WIFOM, it’s fractal WIFOM!

Ok I need a nap.

True. But maybe she'll do a vote-count at the end of the day. If her name is missing from it, that could be a hint that she's not a valid target for voting. ...but she said she'd lie in the game, right? So maybe her excluding it is just misinformation?
Yeah, fractal WIFOM.

But on a serious note: I plan to do this for Day 1 when we have little to no information to work on and see if anything bubbles to the surface from the narrator. I don't plan to continue it, nor do I think enough people will jump on this to try to actually lynch the narrator. Though that would be informative: if we vote Caerulea in majority and the person with the second-most votes dies... tells us something for sure. Something nigh-useless to know and usually assumed as true, but something nonetheless.

[Grek]

All Twelve Wolves

I'd also like to know whether everyone being allowed to PM everyone is a standard feature of all games on Giant, or if it was just a thing for the Corporate game.

It is a standard part of games on GitP. It is allowed this game, if I am included on the PM. AvatarVecna, however, is advised to use restraint and their best judgement when determining whether to PM someone.

[Lady Serpentine]

Someone did run it; I played in that game.

[Valmark]

All Twelve Wolves

Am I missing a quote or a joke?

Someone did run it; I played in that game.

How did it go? Is it readable somewhere?

[Grek]

I am both asserting that this game includes at least twelve wolves and that I am allowed to vote for all of them at once, without actually knowing who they are. I would also like to point out that Caerula has registered this vote in the official vote count. Make of this what you will.

[The Outsider]

I always did love to go against the grain. Let's press Unavenger and see if we can't start up a counter-wagon.

[Erin666]

May as well pick AvatarVecna since it looks like it'll be them anyways.

Too late.
