FAM4: Thread 5 - Day 3

[WindwardAway]

Anyway gonna set an alarm so I don’t miss the ITA window

[WindwardAway]

Later, nerds

[Selkie]

if they did. lol yeah they can just die

even if they are town kp at this point it’s hard to justify keeping someone alive on content and we are ahead of curve. i can sleep at night if it’s wrong

[CarrotyReaper]

Isn’t the kill someone got given not even from their ability though? I believe they said they didn’t know why they got it(I may be wrong would have to check)

[an_gorta_slanktai]

can never know with him

but allegedly, yes

[Frostwolf103]

@FAMHost

Nyat Today
Passive — Key
When you are targeted by a killing action or an ITA shot, that action loses Overwhelming ( and Unstoppable ), this becomes Inactive, and you protect yourself from killing actions and ITA shots until the end of the Phase.

It doesnt look like it’s usuable action

[Hallia]

Welp now I know why she woke up at six

I’ll be more sporadic today

[neil_the_eel]

i mean generally miller type claims are going to claim early (ie asecetic, ita immune) because they realise their position itg and what it means. not claiming before ITAs start is -ev wholeheartedly

[Yawn]

Oh no! good luck.

[Ari]

I wholeheartedly endorse Meuh she is an angel.

[Zugzwang]

Ash ISO

@Ash

ChatGPT really cooking with that one.

@Ash

I just skipped to the end because we’re already at more than 550 posts.

@Ash

I feel like we will only be any sort of productive in the last half hour of D1 when we CFD a player.

@Ash

@Frostwolf103

Ari, Frostwolf103, CarrotyReaper, tutuu, ChaosNinjaGaming, Kork, Kelsier, Luxy, carbonated

@Ash

Idea was stolen from Tutuu’s legendary towncase.

@Ash

It’s kind of a running joke that every new player must be an alt.

@Ash

@the_mafia

@Ash

[vote]Carbonated[vote]

:))))

@Ash

My Ritual Mafia PTSD is kicking in hard.

@Ash

Panic time (I am straight and mafia).

@Ash

/in @FAMHost

@Ash

:impaledcat:

@Ash

Will take satisfaction in everyone getting my drawings almost instantly.

@Ash

I got 7th.

@Ash

Nya.

@Ash

I’d argue strongly against this, but ¯\(ツ)/¯.

@Ash

Slightly annoyed that FoL doesn’t automatically scroll down because it means I can’t lurk on another monitor while doing something else.

@Ash

Playerlist in the first post is alphabetical, and that’s probably just faster.

@Ash

Mafia pushing mafia.

@Ash

@spf

boob feels towny based solely on vibes but i havent paid too much attention to him yet

Just checked the thread again, and this is the first thing I see.

@Ash

Felt that the joke worked better if there was more context.

@Ash

Yep.
If it’s any consolation, I missed it by a hair too.

@Ash

Me when I mix up the event thread and the actual thread.

@Ash

Hi back, I’m Ash.

@Ash

Can confirm that Firinn is not an alt. Gummy and I have played with him before.

@Ash

Snowed in?

@Ash

Yes (they hard-carried me when I was Demon), but they did get fully read right after we secured victory.

@Ash

I personally townread Firinn, but I’ll cross-reference his ISO with my previous game with him.

@Ash

Maybe? I think it’s unlikely, but I’ll check.

@Ash

Chat, all the mafia are in this list, so we just need to kill everyone here to win.

@Ash

Forgot which game, but I remember town throwing her out the airlock after she admitted to lurking (which was cringe, but oh well).

@Ash

I think “Brad is cringe” and “Brad is wolf” got distinguished. I personally agree that Brad is town: his messages seemed far too weird right out the gate to sensibly come from a wolf.

@Ash

agnus has entered the thread.

@Ash

Still?

@Ash

benguined and I know her.

@Ash

Ok.
Let me finish the Firinn thing; been procrastinating.

@Ash

Click the user icon at the top right.

@Ash

Hit the down arrow at the bottom, and you’ll get a list of all notifications.

@Ash

Can’t wait for it to be a 60-13-10 game (I forgot how many people are playing this game).

@Ash

Ok, but what if I’m not a townie?

@Ash

Ok.

@Ash

Hi you, I’m Ash!

@Ash

ashlyn.

@Ash

Really dumb tinfoil: w!Windward’s role gets information about people that vote on them if 6 or fewer people vote for them, so they’re having one mafia member vote so they can claim to have gotten them as town.
Iirc, Windward claimed that one of those six is randomly chosen to get their alignment.

@Ash

Having backread Firinn’s play during our game, I really think they’re just town here. In our game, they made it a point to centralize and control the flow of information, a stark contrast from his playstyle here. Combine this with - in my view - a towny train of thought regarding the Windward situation, and I’m more than willing to file them as town.

@Ash

Ah.

@Ash

I want to pull Firefly, but I desperately need Jade for Pure Fiction, and I only have 90 pulls saved at the moment. I do have pity, though, so if 2.3 gives enough Jades, I can just ball and hope for the best (which isn’t saying much given that I’ve lost every single 50/50 since the Ruan Mei banner).

@Ash

RNG it.

@Ash

Herta is the only good Erudition unit I have for PF. No Himeko, Jing Yuan, or Argenti.

@Ash

/In @FAMHost

@Ash

They’ll let you know soon.

@Ash

Not yet. Will do so when the event’s over.

@Ash

Did it just delete ash4fun’s vote and replace it with Apo’s?

@Ash

Oh, ok.
Thought for a second that Windward’s ability capped things at six votes or something.

@Ash

[stuffs Gocj into my pocket]

@Ash

Consuming food?
Wolfy behavior, kill 'em.

@Ash

Just…have you considered breathing?

@Ash

I think you’re taking this far more seriously than everyone else is.
Like, if people’s lives depended on it, you’d be able to coordinate things, but I don’t think people care about optimization as much as they enjoy clowning around, especially given that it’s D1.

@Ash

Can we all just calm down?

@Ash

No roles, just town and mafia.

@Ash

Welcome back to hell. We hope you enjoy your stay here.

@Ash

Roggenrola > Geodude.

@Ash

Is it possible to see all players’ post counts without counting them individually? The thing at the top doesn’t do for everyone.

@Ash

Was hoping it was automated, but I suppose it’s still fairly fast.

@Ash

Nya.

@Ash

With how antsy people are getting, D2’s gonna be a bloodbath.

@Ash

Every time I see “EVENT ANNOUNCEMENT”, my flight-or-flight kicks in to join.

@Ash

Working on it.

@Ash

Who is Manny?

@Ash

I will probably do the same when I actually focus on this game.

@Ash

We are all the same person on different alt accounts.

@Ash

Isn’t that an expected damage of 20?

@Ash

I’d like to avoid another “Luka in Stellaris” incident.

@Ash

#7 has aged badly.

@Ash

I have several questions.

@Ash

You think it’s a suicide-poison role, or is this a “who should the healer heal” thing?

@Ash

What’s the case on Marl?
Didn’t get a chance to backread everything from yesterday, but I remember not liking their reaction when Firinn initially pushed Wazza.

@Ash

Tutuu did something like this with May in Popcorny, so it’s not entirely out of their range.

@Ash

…would’ve been nice to remember that before I replied directly to Apo.

@Ash

WindwardAway (6): Daeron, Wazza, Apocryphal, Dum, Leafia, Jane

Patience.

@Ash

One of the six randomly gets it.

@Ash

I just now realized I was a role.

@Ash

@FAMHost

some of your games (such as Legend of Zelda Mafia) have been criticized as being “board game[s] that occasionally had vague overtones of mafia.”

It was the one game! One!

@Ash

@Ash

Without any abilities, everyone has 100 HP, and an ITA shot deals 10.
A shot can either kill the target or deal damage. The chance of killing the target is its damage divided by the target’s health. If that fails, it deals its set amount of damage.

@Ash

My question is why the wolves chose to kill SPF of all people.

@Ash

Greatly appreciate you taking up doing this, btw.

@Ash

I imagine there are consequences to ITAing them.
Fits the profile picture for sure.

@Ash

Hi not a fan, I’m Ash.

@Ash

Someone in the collective towncore compiles a list of general suspicions, ranks them, and posts them. Everyone else then shoots accordingly, from most wolfy to least.

@Ash

From what I understand, it’s usually categories, and you shoot anyone in the lowest category where there’s at least one person alive.

@Ash

There’s a really good article someone sent to Carbonated in the signup thread that goes over this much better, but in essence, the lists are written by a consensus townread on people wildly considered to scum, ranging in specific categories (it’d probably be, like, 2/3 categories that together contain around 8-10 people).

@Ash

@Ash

Having played with Brakuren before, I’m pretty sure they’d choose not to rhyme given the choice.

@Ash

I’m trying to multitask this game and my HW, and I have ended up doing neither.

@Ash

I think it is just v!Frost and w!Carbonated.

@Ash

It’s still a lean - I don’t have much to go on - but they’ve been fairly conservative with their posting, and it aligns with the wolfgame that I have on record for them.

@Ash

May and Hazard should have access to that game if they want to double-check me on that.

@Ash

Pretty much, it’s “remove your top three townreads, and pass it on to your top townread who hasn’t gone yet.”

@Ash

Average person has 100.

@Ash

/In @FAMHost

@Ash

Probably too late, but oh, well.

@Ash

I barely beat you. You played really well.

@Ash

My goal is to not fire first and instead just follow the crowd.

@Ash

Oh, yeah, @Atlas, the Geoguesser game gave me a potion that gives my ITA shots +5 damage for the day. Don’t have to use it immediately, but I will probably just do so now because I don’t want to die holding onto it.

@Ash

Yeah.

@Ash

Hippo nearly beat me.

@Ash

Have fun!

@Ash

@Ash

a potion that gives my ITA shots +5 damage for the day

I have used the potion.

@Ash

Yep.

@Ash

5 seconds until a massacre.

@Ash

Huh???

@Ash

Someone ping me when this all cools down.

@Ash

FAMHost isn’t automated; it’s literally the half-dozen GMs scrambling to catch up to things.

@Ash

There’s either some strong chicanery going on here, or this is gonna be one heckuva backread through mafia chat.

@Ash

Finally caught up.
Hoo boy, this is a mess.

@Ash

Do we only get 1 ITA shot for an entire day?

@Ash

What does the shot list look like now?

@Ash

Alternatively, I can wait until the next ITA window; potion lasts the entire day.

@Ash

Why.

@Ash

Didn’t he instantly shoot Kiiruma, exposing the W/W theater?

@Ash

If your role is Arete, please claim so I can shoot you. I want to be able to say that all the QBCord roles died before we hit N2 (the Ash role, the benguined role, and the Gummy role are all dead).

@Ash

Still amazed ya’ll got Leafia because I had them as a townread.

@Ash

Should’ve ITAed him for the comedy.

@Ash

Oh, fun, an Enigmatic role.

@Ash

Does this game have hammer?

@Ash

Cool.
[vote]Jake[vote], then.

@Ash

For which event?

@Ash

Oh, yeah, what came of that?

@Ash

Still trying to wrap my head around the fact that there’s, like, 18-20 wolves in this game.
Like, that’s an entire game worth of wolves in this one mash.

@Ash

Where was the modpost, btw?

@Ash

Who would feel confident enough to coach?

@Ash

I enjoyed The Witch from Mercury. Hit me.

@Ash

No, like, coaching is a very specific thing that very few people on this site can do. If we establish that Leafia’s been coached, that gives us a strong list of potential wolfreads to work with.

@Ash

Yeah, you’re right. It could have just been Leafia.

@Ash

…can I see the train of thought on this? Atlas is my highest townread at the moment (aside from Zone).

@Ash

With every use of the NEIL THE SEAL OF APPROVAL, you should add to its length.
NEIL THE SEAL OF APPROVAL
NEIL THE SEAL WHO NEVER YIELDS OF APPROVAL
NEIL THE SEAL WHO NEVER YIELDS TO EELS OF APPROVAL

You get the point.

@Ash

Chat, is this a full mental breakdown or just kinda a mental breakdown? (/j)

@Ash

Yes. They and Kiiruma were mafia.

@Ash

I’m gonna be honest, I didn’t even realize Italy got ITAed until I checked the OP ten seconds ago.

@Ash

We should vote out the hosts.

@Ash

@Ash

@katze

SOMEHOW YOU ARE NULL I PROBABLY FORGOT ABOUT YOU OR DIDNT EVEN KNOW YOU EXISTED
Ash

Ouch.

@Ash

That’s a way more effective weight-loss regiment than anything else on the market.
You should sell it.

@Ash

My only point of reference for Dum is his village performance in Ritual Mafia, and that feels like an outlier in that he was all but confirmed town within that game.

@Ash

At least you don’t have to match syllabi or a meter per line.

@Ash

Like, imagine being told you have to write all your stuff as Shakespearean sonnets, with the correct rhyme scheme and in iambic pentameter.

@Ash

Yeah, I feel like most people want to be in every event by virtue of events being fun. It’s not worthy of a scumread on its own.

@Ash

May said they were holding onto what they got.

@Ash

No, it’s just them being funny.

@Ash

/In @FAMHost

@Ash

Wait…

@Ash

Me when the fight-or-flight mode kicks in.

@Ash

Reading takes too long.
You have to act fast to get into the events.

@Ash

Boo.

This post was not given the NEIL THE SEAL OF APPROVAL.

@Ash

Who survived the last ITA despite efforts to kill them?

@Ash

Ok, I was thinking of Cape for some reason.
Debating whether I should use my shot here or just wait ‘til tomorrow afternoon.

@Ash

We’re only half an hour away, though.

@Ash

Oh.
Never mind, then.

@Ash

Italy, Leafia, and Kiiruma, in reverse order.

@Ash

Who else but Neil the seal who doesn’t yield to eels?

@Ash

Sure, we won’t.
Sure, we won’t.
Sure, we won’t.
Sure, we w-

@Ash

Oh.
Sorry.

@Ash

Why is the VC still linking posts? I woke up to 23 notifications.

@Ash

UNVOTE

@Ash

[vote]JakeTheWolfie[vote]

@Ash

18-20, probably.

@Ash

Doubt it’s more unless there’re a bunch of Goons, and doubt it’s less unless we’ve got a wild number of 3Ps.

@Ash

The shots missed.

@Ash

I find it kinda funny that you haven’t marked yourself as town.

@Ash

I remember people townreading him last night, so check the previous thread.

@Ash

Have a safe flight!

@Ash

There should be more games that do what Persona does.

@Ash

Ok, so it’s apparently not “climate change”.

@Ash

Alexandra (wolf) and Magnus (town) died in ITA 2.

@Ash

Pfps-wise, Greninja/Ash-Greninja, Leafia, Uraraka, ??, and Cinderace/Scorbunny.

@Ash

It probably is.

@Ash

Change.
It’s Morse Code.

@Ash

How’d you get “Order”?

@Ash

They were signups 31, 6, 14, 25, and 20.

@Ash

Nice job!

@Ash

Nutella got a night vig from the event.

@Ash

Ok; I’ll probably shoot Gori, then? I remember someone mentioned that if [person; forgot who] is town, then Gori has to be mafia.

@Ash

Duly noted.
Who was the other person, though?

@Ash

Ok.
What’s the case on Ranta, then?

@Ash

Ok.
Should I shoot them, then?

@Ash

I really just need some direction here.

@Ash

No; I held my shot because I was offline for most of it, and it was too tumultuous to determine who would be the best shot.

@Ash

Bro is on a hero-shooting spree.

@Ash

I mean, I could shoot ‘em.
Would be extremely funny.

@Ash

I am currently working on schoolwork and trying to figure out who to shoot.
Debating between Gori and benguined.

@Ash

Who do I shoot?

@Ash

Cool.
@FAMHost, ITA benguinedparbecue.

@Ash

We are omnipresent.

@Ash

Wait, were they mafia?

@Ash

Graveyard hasn’t been updated yet.

@Ash

It failed, and Jake claimed it was because Brad is a Guild Leader.
They also had three ITA shots on them miss.

@Ash

What did crazynuto claim?

@Ash

Sadbi’s already got enough to be killed by Tutuu’s role.

@Ash

I mean, I superliked Catbae D1 and May D2.

@Ash

No?
We’re trying to figure things out under the assumption that nuto’s telling us the truth.

@Ash

@Jane

Ash

Heavy wolf energy.

@Ash

Millium’s stated that they’ll be waiting at EoD if Jake jumps off.

@Ash

We are not winning Best Town Performance for this game.

@Ash

Why a wagon if we’re not expecting them to be voted out?

@Ash

Gotcha.
[vote]Pandora[vote]

@Ash

My tinfoil on Marluxion defies reason and persists.

@Ash

Ok, but consider: it was extremely funny.

@Ash

Claimed wolf, shot a widely-townread player, claimed said player was a Guild leader when they’re not in a guild, and had three ITA shots on them miss.

@Ash

Plot twist: this is just one giant game of BotC.

@Ash

I think everyone’s just on edge.

@Ash

Should we play SPF’s Ash role, then?

@Ash

Saving this as a future Music League theme.

@Ash

Some Western dueling music.

@Ash

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFa1-kciCb4

@Ash

Take your pick.

@Ash

Was ITA 1 not entertaining enough for you?

@Ash

I shall return to lurking, then.

@Ash

Text-based role cards are easier to parse, but image-base role cards are more interesting to share.

@Ash

As a player, text-based role cards.
As a GM, image-based role cards.

@Ash

The image-based first to see it, then the text-based one to understand what the role actually does.

@Ash

I, uh, forgot to do that event.
And the Sheep event.
And all the Guild propaganda events.
My attention span is at rock-bottom.

@Ash

I didn’t open SPF’s role until later; I was mainly focused on Tutuu flipping mafia.

@Ash

I don’t remember, Zug; I just remember processing that SPF was town and then realizing that they were me when I went back to see what their role did.

@Ash

Check the homie thread for that.

@Ash

Wait, never mind, that’s the villa post you’re mentioning.
Me when literacy.

@Ash

I understand the logic, and I don’t have much of a response to that aside from me just making an assumption about my logic based on remembering myself seeing SPF as town, then realizing they were me when I went back to read their role.

@Ash

Wait, when did Brakuren stop rhyming?

@Ash

Can’t wait for this to somehow end up becoming game-relevant.

@Ash

I think two shots into an angel is enough to confirm them as such.

@Ash

[vote]Gorta[vote]

@Ash

Kork’s been on the shotlist for a good while, haven’t they?

@Ash

Ok, never mind.

@Ash

Am I allowed to veto myself?

@Ash

Truly 1948.

@Ash

Three mafia got killed.
We’re on a roll.

@Ash

It’s over for the “Brakuren eating a shoe” fandom.

@Ash

Really want to shoot Carbonated solely because it determines whether my scumreads were majority right or majority wrong.

@Ash

Three shots on them missed.

@Ash

Death.

@Ash

May, you have my name, and that’s probably enough to figure out where I live.

@Ash

Something funny.

@Ash

Four hours.

@Ash

Hoo boy.

@Ash

What’s the role?

@Ash

I’m at the point in my sanity arc where I can’t tell whether May’s being serious.

@Ash

Get some rest.

@Ash

What does any of this mean?

@Ash

They are, and they flipped mafia.
The joke is that May had them as a townlean.

@Ash

I feel like we could’ve made better use of that, but I say this as someone who firmly wasted the nighttalk.

@Ash

Mods, kill this man with hammers.

@Ash

How…?

@Ash

Just now realizing I got ITAed thrice during the second window.

@Ash

Ok, I was apparently only shot twice.
Me when I have to count.

@Ash

Millium’s a strong townread, and Jane is probably a townread.
No thoughts on Hallia or Beancat.

@Ash

Scroll to the OP, then click on “Died [phase]”.

@Ash

No, I think they’re saying that they’ll save the post and send it during a brief window during the ITA period.

@Ash

Pandora and Hippo, both mafia.

@Ash

Don’t worry.
You will be wounded further.

@Ash

Artemis was, and they’re probably town.
But they also shot me, and I have an obligation to bully my fellow QBCord members.

@Ash

Took me a bit too long to realize this is the film version and not the theater version.

@Ash

Eh…
I dunno, I’ve been posting more than I would have as wolf? Firmly feeling like I’ve been floating along this entire game.

@Ash

I don’t know. Combinatorics Mafia had me as one of the lowest posters, but I also was just incredibly busy during that time and couldn’t play nearly as much as I wanted to.
The only other scum game I have on this site is SFoL 70, and I don’t remember my posting being that substantive.

@Ash

Like, I have this game open on a different monitor while working on other things, so I’m not making reads on more than just moment-to-moment vibes.

@Ash

Paradox Hazard (town game):
Paradox Hazard - GAME OVER - MAFIA VICTORY!

SFoL (mafia game):
SFoL 70: Last Stand of the Virtous IV - DRAW AND HEADHUNTER WIN

@Ash

I’ll try, but I don’t remember half the people in this game.

@Ash

It’s in an hour and a half.
