    Why would I want to expose everyone's roles as scum, wouldn't it be in mafia's best interest to hold out on information? The reason why I haven't been offed by the scum after revealing is because I got protected/blocked 2 nights and because another part of my role gives me immunity to night kills. I've been completely honest with all my checks, and investigating EC or Klippy when they claimed tracker is pointless considering my investigations only give me their roles not their alignment. Why am I in the spotlight anyways? EC and Klippy should be telling us the tracker results.

    If Pecilia was mafia, it makes sense that he would confirm one of his own instead of investigating EC, which was currently being suspected. However, makes little for him as town, to investigate Nightkrow, given that we're at late game and another mislynch could cost us the game. Maybe Nightkrow isn't mafia, but I think Pecilia is most likely to be of all of us.

    I personally don't doubt Pecilia right now. But I do think NightKrow has laid way too low this game to not have something going on. :/ I also question the legitimacy of Naku's role since we've had the Switcher running around more than half the game. Who knows what he is now. Similarly Gunner has stopped doing her two vote thing, unless that's just because she's keeping her half votes on each person?

    Who did you block last night?

    Gonna employ the same tactic as yesterday and keep a name hidden. Right now there's a lot of unknowns on what happened last night still, so I have a few questions left to see answered.

    [redacted] visited [redacted]. If you have to have a name immediately though, I will give the person who was visited.

    Who did you attempt to track then?

    Wait, you're not exposing people as scum, you confirmed Nightkrow as what she claimed.

    Fair enough about EC and Klippy, I still think you're most likely to be scum, though, but that's subject to change.

    How about you Klippy, did you get blocked too? :P

    So I take it you blocked EC.

    I actually think the post requirement has backfired, especially in a game of super randomness like this one, where we are left to just lynch via bandwagon instead of any real information.

    Four posts still isn't difficult in the least, and there's plenty of info you can grab through posts

    I was just kind of expecting hoping to be dead about now.

    me in HGM said:
    so my activity will be a bit spotty over the next three weeks because it's exam season. Have been furiously revising the whole of Introduction to Neuroscience. yay

    ^This, but with Language in the Brain as well as Introduction to Neuroscience.
    just taken the Language in the Brain exam so now I've got some free time, gonna have to post 4x in the next 48 hours though D:

    thoughts about most of the other players:
    I don't think Gunner's role has changed due to the role switcher since she is still Superjolt in the vote tally. If Naku's role passed to another person, would we have gotten a notification about another person being confirmed innocent, or does that only happen at the start of the game?
    I'm pretty confident in Johnny's innocence since his N2 target explains the GM screwup and proves that he does have a protective component to his role.

    I think one of the tracker roles could be mafia sided, or mafia sided and not actually a tracker role (although mafia sided tracker role would probably make more sense, why would they lie about their role when the rolecop could easily prove they were lying? unless both the rolecop and a tracker are scum :o) If this is the case then EC would be the most likely to be scum out of the two trackers, still think something's fishy about those targets. Although I guess tracking Naku makes sense from a town perspective to find out whether his role has been switched at some point

    Personally, I think Pecilia made the right choice in investigating me because I am the least able to back up my role claim since, well, my role doesn't do anything. :/
    Investigating EC doesn't really do anything to prove his innocence, it just proves that he isn't lying about what role he claimed. However, I also think Pecilia could easily be a scum rolecop playing as if he was a town rolecop so that the town don't suspect that he is scum. But then idk, why would scum!Pecilia confirm me when it would've been very easy to get me mislynched? Then again, I don't really buy the whole "immune to night kills" thing on a cop role, seems too op for a cop.

    Summary: I'm questioning both Pecilia's and EC's alignments, but I'm kinda conflicted about both. aaaaa

    would be nice if we knew how many scum were left :/

    In that regard I'd like to refer to the game we're playing, albeit there's a lot of wacky roles.

    Four posts per day?
    That's too much.
    I'll be unavailable
    Tomorrow as such.

    Ok, thanks for letting me know! I can make exceptions for this

    I forgot this week (and probably next week) are finals/exam weeks for alot of people, so I can extend deadlines too if needed. For now I'm gonna roll with the current deadline unless people request an extension.

    I only put the rule in place as an alternative to the usual rules for inactivity, because a voting mechanic like this isn't really meant to punish players for not casting votes. While the game may have crazy roles/powers, it's no different from any other game - it's still mafia. Also if anyone is going to tell me there's no information this far into a game, I don't really know what to say lol :P

    Deadline update:
    The day ends in 30 hours, just before Midnight (12:00/0:00am) EST on Friday, May 5th.

    mhm yeah true. I've thought about it some more and I don't think confirming me makes any sense at all for scum!you, so I think I'll settle on you being town.

    Thanks, I guess. Not that I'd really mind if you ended up replacing me anyway since I don't think I've met the minimum post count at all during this game...

    I didn't block anyone. I was waiting to see if anyone would claim to have been blocked.

    ooo
    so EC is lying, hm?
    I wonder what he has to say about that.

    Sooooo...it's gotta be EC then, since he claims to have been blocked and that he attempted to visit Naku. I dunno why he'd track a proven innocent (since we know from Decidueye that the only things that switch are roles, not alignments), even if Naku had changed roles.

    EDIT: And for everyone else, I tracked NightKrow myself, and she visited nobody. It doesn't proven she's innocent, but it corroborates Pecilia's rolecheck that she doesn't have anything going on.

    I will admit to lying about something.
    But not about being blocked.

    If Johnny didn't block you, then it's quite unlikely for anyone else to have been able to based on revealed or claimed roles. Despite this, I've listed everyone and the people I most suspect of having a potential ALTERNATE role power.

    Gunner - double votes (though I suspect this is no longer her role)
    Naku - confirmed innocent, regardless of role

    Selena - poet role, so potentially has additional abilities
    Johnny - Dr. Jailer of sorts
    Klippy - Tracker
    Pecilia - Rolecop
    NightKrow - mostly proven vanilla-type role

    A RED name doesn't mean suspicious. It's merely denoting who has the potential to be a blocker/hooker-esque role, if EC is being honest about being blocked.

    But frankly the fact that he lied to us makes me lose all trust in him when we're at the cusp of losing. :|
