I have arrived. Rejoice for it is good.

The two things that really stands out to me is Tulas for the obvious reasons, and Telas for his very ... strange reasoning and subsequent vote for Shadow.

I dunno how to approach this game properly when there's no one to follow to UB. I guess this has to be all gut.

Dammit, another game where the days are ridiculously short.

So, everyone alive must be silenced?

... That really sounds hard for UB, I can't think of a hidden mechanics that would balance that, unless he can silence more than one person per day.

Anyways, let's see. Has everyone shown up?

16 posted, and how many are we, 18?

Would be interesting to see if anyone else has funny posting restrictions. So far I only noticed Atrahal.

There's an obvious solution to the UB's win condition if I'm not a total ass: kill off everybody silenced, that way UB has to start over. But yeah I'm probably talking with my ass.
Anyway, it's worth a try to kill of Atrahal in case UB silenced himself first day.

vote Atrahal


Edit: forgot to bold and a neg

morning, everyone.

we got about 2 hours left, and without a killer in place, this may be a very loong game.


i've gotta shower, then i'll take a look see at the tulas train to see if I wanna vote that way.

That's actually not a bad idea.

Nasty, but not bad.

it's only a crutch, though: if every "day" UB silences someone and the rest lynch that someone, eventually it'll bpil down to just UB and 1 inno.

at which point UB will silence that inno and win.

I can see it being a viable last resort when we're stumped for any lynch tactic, but only as a last resort.

so, Tulas got 4 votes, for allegedly "gloating" over silencing Atrahal, and then the Osseric sequence

he says he's leaving, 3 min later Osseric votes, 7 minutes later he's back and defending himself

hmm
it could've been a "last minute check", I do those myself sometimes b/c i'm a hopeless addict.

or, it could've been lurking.

anyhow, people flyinh off the handle after a single vote on Day 1 are always suspicious.

so
vote Tulas Shorn

Yeah I kinda agree with that - but if we don't have a good target for a lynch, I say lynching the silenced is good strategy, although I also agree it's pretty nasty. But there is a chance that UB silenced himself the first day, and since day 1 lynches usually are shitty anyway, I'd say lynching the silenced is as good as anything we could do.

I highly doubt UB would silence himself Day 1, since (iirc), one of the "twists" is that the silencing is permanent.
meaning, UB would have to play the whole game silenced from the start.

I find it unlikely he'd do that.

which is why I like my tulas vote better for now.

Good point, I didn't think of that.

Does that mean we can be pretty sure UB won't silence himself? Because maybe he feels that he will be safer as silenced.

Speculating on the hidden mechanic: what if you become an UB symp when you are silenced?
