Scum Thread Bandora's Palace

[Alpha 5]

I'm trying to approach that whole discussion as if I was a Town Jailer. If I do try to claim town jailer, then naturally I would have to be somewhat skeptical of a 1-shot bulletproof giver. I'll be careful and I won't push it though. I don't tend to say anything else on the matter unless I am forced to claim.

 

[Skull]

Rita’s claim is getting us some good reactions from other townies. Zack, Trini and Kimberly have posted how little the bulletproof vest is, and I don’t think our real doctor would say that right now.

 

[Skull]

We need to find that doctor to keep him jailed forever/murder him right away. Without Jason, he would really hurt us at endgame.

 

[Alpha 5]

Any chance that Rita's claim is true? If it is, what does that mean for town's protective roles?

 

[Skull]

I’m pretty sure it is true. It’s possible that’s what allowed Pink to avoid our kill actually, but that doesn’t matter now.

I think they have a doctor, with shots maybe, and that’s it. Doubtful that they have someone with built in BP.

 

[Zordon]

I will probably shake this but please one of you set up to bus me if need be. I am out for a bit though.

 

[Skull]

You’re ok, but I think the situation with Zack and Rita is setting up a horrible link that will eventually get you/us.

I’m pretty sure we were wrong and Pinkrazil was a fake. Zack might be my bro, which would suck hard.

(it means I’m a shitty brother lol).

 

[Skull]

I will push for Rita. I think I’m safe there.

 

[Zordon]

And before I move on to the other stuff I just wanna comment on this once more:

You're really saying I look bad because I'm rereading the game. And you're choosing very particular wording, too ("looking for anything to follow" seems really loaded).

You’re ok, but I think the situation with Zack and Rita is setting up a horrible link that will eventually get you/us.

I’m pretty sure we were wrong and Pinkrazil was a fake. Zack might be my bro, which would suck hard.

(it means I’m a shitty brother lol).

Maybe, could be. But uh
(sorry, Brazil)
has he ever been that right?

 

[Alpha 5]

I may need to bus you Zordon. I have no strong interactions with you in the main thread, and I have publicly town-read Zack before. Advice?

 

[Zordon]

That's fine. I wouldn't push too hard yet but maybe pick up a follow up question from Zack if you can. That way later if you have to jump on me there's a progression.

 

[Skull]

I won’t bus you Zordon, so maybe it’s best you do Alpha. I don’t think that will get much traction, but like I said the link is getting strong and I will push for Rita.

We can think of that later in D4 though, when we have more flips and more mess.

 

[Zordon]

I'm gonna suggest early that we look to Green or Blue as possible NK targets. Probably Blue. I feel like anyone Trini has cleared makes a good target.

What do y'all think of the silence today?

 

[Skull]

Wow, those string of posts from us lol

 

[Alpha 5]

It does feel a lot quiter than normal. I don't think we killed off all of the active players yet.

I think Blue isn't a bad NK target. While Blue has been pushed a bit as a lynch target, it doesn't seem to stick at all. I have no idea who is a PR or not, anyways.

I still think that there is a chance to lynch Green. Maybe not this day phase, but maybe on the next one.

If I had to suggest another choice: Kimberly. Pretty active but unlikely to be protected.

 

[Skull]

I'm gonna suggest early that we look to Green or Blue as possible NK targets. Probably Blue. I feel like anyone Trini has cleared makes a good target.

What do y'all think of the silence today?

I feel like both can still be lynched In the future, especially Green, but if we get PR reads on them I’m all aboard.

We got quite a lot on our plates with Trini, rac and maybe Zack. NKilling the doctor is our priority right now with this town circle growing.

 

[Skull]

Kimberly is a good pick too.

 

[Skull]

This time I will really try to reread the thread to pick leads on who’s our doctor.

 

[Zordon]

Agreed that we need to find the doc.

Tinfoil: could it actually be Rita?

 

[Skull]

She might be bs’ing her claim to throw off scum, yeah. lf she is, she will claim today to avoid the lynch, which could really hurt you.

 

[Skull]

If it gets to that though. Don’t know what’s going to happen.

 

[Skull]

Man, we’re up in shit right now huh? Jason’s flip really did a number on us.

 

[Zordon]

She might be bs’ing her claim to throw off scum, yeah. lf she is, she will claim today to avoid the lynch, which could really hurt you.

Yep. Take note though dudes: apparently all it takes is one longer post and some buildup to change the whole game. Zack’s post was not accurate in all points but here we are.

 

[Skull]

Man, this game is messing me up. This pressure on us is horrible.

 

[Zordon]

A thought - if I'm still high near eod, should I fake claim tracker? I can use the jailed targets sine they did not move.

 

[Skull]

Oh yeah, if push comes to shove yeah. I don’ think this game has a tracker, I’m leaning more on a watcher.

 

[Zordon]

Agreed. Okay, that gives me something to work with.

 

[Skull]

And what about going all in and claim you saw Alpha move to Pink at D1? That could backfire since you had zero interactions with him at D2, but boy would it mess the game up.

Wow, I sure love some stupid gambits.

 

[Skull]

I’ll pressure Rita on this and see if we get something. If she’s going to claim, better if it comes right now and not 1 hour from day end.

 

[Skull]

Thinking about it some more, Rita definitely has more shots. Just look at my own role: how can I copy such a 1- shot BP giver? We don’t have a role cop to help us out.

 

[Zordon]

Oh, good call.

 

[Alpha 5]

I'm sorry Zordon, I have to bus you. I think my own survival is at stake if I don't build a lot of town cred now.

 

[Alpha 5]

I think jailing Rita might be safer than aiming to kill her this night phase. I still think someone unexpected like Kimberly is a safer target.

Would killing Zack work? Arg, might not be safe.

 

[Skull]

Let’s think about our night actions when it comes to that. The game is such a mess right now that we can’t know what we will be able to do.

 

[Skull]

Alpha, unless Zordon adds you in his claim, stay on the vote.

 

[Skull]

Yes rac, see the light!

 

[Zordon]

I'm sorry Zordon, I have to bus you. I think my own survival is at stake if I don't build a lot of town cred now.

That's fine, I still love you.

 

[Zordon]

ugh, thursdays are just so bad for me but I'll be back in a little white. I breadcrumbed my claim.

 

[Alpha 5]

I... don't know how but people seem to be getting cold feet on the Zordon vote. We might have a chance here.

 

[Zordon]

I'm a slippery weasel who will now be lynched d2 in my next game. XD and if I don't have to use my fake claim today I can easily save it for tomorrow since I crumbed it.

 

[Zordon]

Will put this here in case I need it so I don't forget

If I claim tracker I will reference the starting flavor and a missing ranger. I will say n1 I saw Pink target Kimberly (since I'm 99% sure Kimberly is NOT febe) and n2 I targeted Trini since her certainty made me think she was a cop and I wanted to be able to back her up if so but Trini didn't visit anyone.

 

[Alpha 5]

Um, do be careful, Pink and Trini are the two people I blocked as a Jailer. If you claim you tracked them it is going to cut off my ability to claim Town Jailer in case I need to claim.

 

[Zordon]

oh hmm

Those are the two I can most easily justify. I think you could still claim Trini; there was legit reason to "protect" her n2. Wish Skull was here so we could ask him what he thought.

 

[Zordon]

But yeah, I can't say I tracked Pink Ranger if you jailed them, eh. Fair point.

 

[Zordon]

if I can come up with a reason I can say I tracked Red Ranger who wouldn't visit anyone.

 

[Zordon]

FOR LATER: Kimberly, since I'm pretty sure you're Gotham, I'm sorry for the way I'm going to try to set you up for a future lynch. I like you bunches, please forgive me <3

 

[Skull]

Kinda here, hey.

I think we could go for another Jail target on D1, maybe even one of us if need be. It wouldn’t matter much if it came to that I think.

I say that because Zordon’s plan is really good and would make sense for him.

 

[Skull]

Trini D2 is really good though. Keep that for later.

 

[Skull]

Can I make a quick stupid gambit for some townie points?
Thinking of pushing for an Alpha lynch.

 

[Skull]

It won’t get traction, not enough to change the lynch (almost sure of that). If either of us flipped later, it would be great for the other
Can I?

 

[Zordon]

I think it would be a good plan for today but we do need to be careful that it doesn't gain traction since we need Alpha more than we need me!

 

[Zordon]

but yes, if we can think of another n1 target for jail claim I agree my tracker claim works well with Pink-Kimberly and then Trini n2 but I can make it work if we can't. Again, I think Alpha's more important than I am.

 

[Alpha 5]

If you want? But I am having a tough time fending off votes as it is.

Come on people, my Green/Red vote was the towniest thing I've done in this game. I would have done the exact same thing if I was town.

 

[Skull]

Kinda did it already. It will probably cause a mess.

And yeah, I can’t even weigh in on you since I’m still not seeing what is so scummy on you. Will force it though.

 

[Skull]

Oh lol. Didn’t expect that. That might spill some votes around.

 

[Alpha 5]

I am still surprised by Rita's willingness to talk about power roles.

 

[Zordon]

If you want? But I am having a tough time fending off votes as it is.

Come on people, my Green/Red vote was the towniest thing I've done in this game. I would have done the exact same thing if I was town.

honestly town is WEIRD AF THIS GAME

 

[Alpha 5]

Skull, to be honest I think you might have dragged us into more trouble than we were in before.

 

[Alpha 5]

We survived another day!

 

[Zordon]

WE LIVED
and we will discuss strategy for next phase. I think this night is 48 h.

 

[Skull]

Yup. That was horrible lol. Would be great if I got vig’ed after that.

 

[Skull]

I kinda have a backup case against you already though. Tomorrow we can see if it pans out.

 

[Skull]

Surprised we didn’t see much traction considering Rita’s claim, but oh well.

 

[Skull]

That was so out of nowhere that I think people will cut me some slack later.

 

[Sawneeks]

FOR LATER: Kimberly, since I'm pretty sure you're Gotham, I'm sorry for the way I'm going to try to set you up for a future lynch. I like you bunches, please forgive me <3

Can't believe you'd even think about backstabbing Gotham. What happened to #GirlSquad? ;;

 

[Alpha 5]

Yeah we have 48 hours. Nice.

I am glad you have a plan skull, because I have no idea what to suggest.

I had earlier suggested killing Kimberly, but we actually have some lynch momentum there. I doubt killing a statue like Billy will net us much if that gossip chat is as dead as Rita claims.

Kill Trini? Rac?

 

[Zordon]

I was going to suggest that we kill Trini because I think tonight Zack/rac will be most likely targets for coverage but that hammer, I wonder if it'll change some minds on her. I think we leave White/Yellow/Billy/Tommy alive; they are such low posters that we don't need to worry about them yet. My suggestion would be jail Zack, kill Trini. But I suggest we dig for PRs. I probably wasn't the only one to breadcrumb today.

 

[Zordon]

I love rac, my dope ass blob, but only Trini seemed to be leaning on him for his thoughts today, which is some bullshit for a confirmed town but town is is acting wild so I don't know what they're doing.

 

[Zordon]

Also unless someone seems to know where you went, I should be your claimed jail for tonight since you were scumreading me if you have to claim, right?

 

[Zordon]

Any thoughts?

 

[Alpha 5]

Sorry for the late reply.

I suppose it wiuldn't hurt to kill Trini at this stage. She is mostly past suspicion, and if you are right that she has a PR, now would be a good time to deal with that.

Earlier I had suggested Kimberly, but she is actually getting heat now, so might not be the best time.

Why Jail Zack though?

 

[Zordon]

Zack is a good cover if you have to claim; he kind of is the town leader right now. He wasn't super high key the first two days, either, which could indicate a PR. I'm looking over the list and I'm not able to figure anyone who could be left as a PR. It really could be Kimberly, I suppose, but I'd guess if not Zack then a middle of the road poster, not doing too much. Maybe Yellow.

So far we have:

a confirmed celebrity
a claimed 1-shot bulletproof (with either more shots or another protective role out there since Skull's power exists)
a possible gossip chatter (that may be x-shot?)

 

[Zordon]

Plus Pink's neutral role.

 

[Zordon]

Tommy, Bulk, Blue, and Yellow are the ones I think might be hiding in the weeds, in this order:
Blue > Yellow > Tommy > Bulk

 

[Skull]

Didn’t get the time yet to do a reread, but I will.

Right now, I think killing Trini could work, although I don’t think she has a PR. I think Yellow might have one, or Green. Neither have been especially town read so unsure if we can get a lynch there eventually.

 

[Skull]

Blue might be it as well. I will do a reread with these in mind and see if I can get anything.

 

[Zordon]

I more think we should kill Trini just to silence her and jail one of those mentioned.

 

[Skull]

Yeah I agree. She won’t be lynched so we need to get her eventually.

Should I shot at Rita? I don’t think we can gain much there, even if she’s telling the lying and has more shots. If town can kill us, we should just take it sincerely.

 

[Alpha 5]

I'm okay with jailing Green. I can justify that at least. I do think they have been laying low for some reason.

 

[Skull]

It’s a good target yeah. You can justify it later by saying you scum read him too, right?


That aside, what are the lynch candidates for tomorrow? I think I’ll get some heat initially but it will shift towards you two as the day goes on.

 

[Alpha 5]

I doubt Zordon is out of the woods yet. I think Kimberly and I will probably see at least some pressure. It is hard to predict what this town will do, really.

We might still have a shot at lynching Rita.

 

[Zordon]

They’ll get me eventually maybe but it won’t be today. Not if they let Rita slide by outing another PR. I will claim and it will be fine if I’m up for lynch.

 

[Zordon]

I think Kimberly and Green will be lynch targets. Alpha may also need to claim but we will cross that bridge when we get there.

 

[Alpha 5]

Okay, time for another teleportation accident.

Teleport destination: Sea of Tranquility, the Moon

Jail: Green Ranger

 

[Skull]

I think my stupid gambit will distract a bit from you guys, which is good since I was being ignored mostly.

The idea is that I’ve been playing as a PR backup, and so I need to try and be scummy a bit to survive and use my role.

 

[Skull]

Zordon, can you do the kill this time? It’s Trini right now, but I’ll be rereading the thread now.

 

[Zordon]

Sure can.

KILL: TRINI

Can change it if we need to.

 

[Sawneeks]

On mobile, but I got the jail command. Still haven't received a kill command.

 

[Sawneeks]

Whelp, nevermind. Damn you for posting at the same time, Zordon.

 

[Alpha 5]

I hope this works.

 

[Skull]

I reread D3 fully, and I don’t see any soft claim or breadcrumbs. Might be I suck at this, but I don’t think anyone did it.

Which makes me think there’s a PR in one of these players not posting as much, like Blue or Green. Let’s see what our jail nets us today.

Would a tracker be on you today Zordon? I don’t think so, sincerely.

 

[Skull]

I will see if there’s a fake lead for us to push after rac revealed himself. Thinking about the idea that scum tried really hard to protect Jason that day so he could strongkill rac. No one brought that specific angle so far.

 

[Zordon]

I don’t think so either.

 

[Zordon]

I will see if there’s a fake lead for us to push after rac revealed himself. Thinking about the idea that scum tried really hard to protect Jason that day so he could strongkill rac. No one brought that specific angle so far.

Oh, good call.

 

[Skull]

Oh, good call.

Well, there’s not much for us there.

With Red claiming, we have Jason and Black tied with 4 votes. Would make sense for scum to go for Black, instead we see a push for Green. Alpha quickly votes there (first vote) and then Zordon comes in. That sort of created his push.

I guess Alpha gets some points, at the expense of Zordon lol.

We could frame it as scum wasn’t on the Red vote and couldn’t move votes after he claimed, but that doesn’t get us much too.

 

[Skull]

Wow, we suck ass hahahah.

 

[Skull]

Another deathless night... I really hope we the cop, if he even exists, is a X-shot or/and failed to scan at least one night.

 

[Zordon]

Goddammit

 

[Skull]

This is pretty despair inducing. Two nights in a row without flipping someone. We are not even scum anymore lol.

 

[Skull]

Well, I think it's safe to say town doesn't have a vigilante if he doesn't show up today. At least I would have used my shot a long time ago.
