BotF XVI - Calm Before the Storm - Shattered Futures [Starseekers Win]

If I had lived and you died as klutz I was 100 percent the klutz pick

Not really? You were “confirmed” from YBW, I would’ve picked the source of that information.

If I was going to pick someone further down the stream, I may as well have picked Prisma.

So you’d have picked YBW

Damn I was so sure I was the pick

But I absolutely sold a paranoid townie act D1 really well

What are your thoughts on the whisper cap?

I personally think it makes the game much easier for good in a script that already has a good-favoured win-rate

However I also “get it” so it didn’t bother me

3 whispers mean whisper tracking is significantly easier, if you find one you might find them all if you follow the chain.

Example:

A minion seems pretty sure about their role, but they get confirmed evil somehow later on. They spoke to 3 people 2 of which are dead. The third person who isn’t dead ends up being the demon who passed them the bluff they were using.

You can’t use that logic on me I’m insane and don’t need bluffs and exactly 0 of those things are true

Philosopher, Snake Charmer, Clockmaker. You had a good net if any of those claims were initially taken.

I did snake charmer because I made atlas mad as it and I wanted to double claim them and make the real snake charmer if they existed also come out so I don’t have to deal with it later

I did clockmaker because it’s easy and I absolutely adore philo as a fake-claim

See if the snake charmer charms the demon, the demon themselves gets to play for good now but the minions get thrown under the bus hardcore because why wouldn’t you out known evil team members as a good player

I’m saying this like I had a plan but I absolutely did not have a plan and I just stumbled into the bluff I had. Trust me I’m not as smart as I probably sound.

I’m not sure how to feel about Snake Charmer as a role. If you swap places with the Demon, the two Minions are outed and practically forced to not play the game. I get the role’s purpose is to confirm players as “not the Demon”, but you can’t effectively do that without testing questionable slots.

Oh yeah and philo clockmaker makes one of the easier to solve information roles harder to solve by virtue of the fact I am claiming it’s fake

Why Clockmaker 4, though? That makes you look poisoned.
Were you planning to claim Mutant all along?

And philo clockmaker sounds so whacky that you might just believe a real philo actually picked it because why would a minion claim that

I figured the number was wild enough that people might chase it. Then I realised a clockmaker 4 is actually impossible. Oops.

Well not impossible but very specific. I then decided, “hmm yes I’ve actually always wanted to do this”

I’ve always wanted to philo into lunatic N0 btw. I did it once.
