ChopBam Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Glad my intuition on Louis was correct. If shade really has a heart you can stab, he is probably who he says he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do we think of the interaction between Louis and ILTS? Though it could be Shade, but he's already under our thumb. I actually don't think it'd be KY, despite the dragonball angle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iLikeToSnipe Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Here is one thought. IF there's a mafia team (which is still a sure bet and there's likely just two), their win condition most likely means they have to take out town AND third party. I'm neutral and have a win condition to survive until the game ends, so I know mafia doesn't need to eliminate neutrals to win. But a living TP towards the end probably counts against a win condition to exceed the number of town players. So, mafia would win when they meet or exceed the remaining town + TP. If I remember correctly, that's how Endgame worked. The game went on when I was Loki even though mafia would have outnumbered town. So yeah, taking out TP Louis was beneficial to town (I assumed she was going to be mafia after that one comment) it was also beneficial to mafia. At this point, I would be honest if I was actually TP and not neutral because you can't afford to lynch either alignment right now. If you go after a neutral, you forfeit a chance to get mafia. If you go after a TP, you eliminate a potential threat to town (if it is a TP with anti-town goals) and bring mafia one kill closer to winning. So, have it your way. Scum hunt or go after neutrals/TP and lose. My offer still stands to actively help in scum hunting, but it's going to require protection that I believe is guaranteed. Until then, I'm only providing minor help if any. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Category 5 Hurricane Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 I'm conflicted. I think Louis has a teammate and the most obvious way to advance would be trying to establish who that is. Going after a Third Party at this point though is probably counter productive. At the same time, I think my suspects for Mafia are pretty much the same ones as Third Party, unless I decide that Mafia are hiding amongst the quiet ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of what compels me to sus on ILTS so much is the previous Loki gambit, but another part of it is what if this isn't a Loki gambit, but a different gambit designed to take advantage of the fact that we're all aware of the Loki gambit. Instead of being TP pretending to be neutral he's mafia pretending to be TP pretending to be neutral. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There would be ample opportunities for me to blend in as town. However, that's bad for me as a neutral that needs to survive. If I pretend to be town and mafia believe it, that makes me an NK target. In other words, I have every reason to claim neutral if I really am neutral or if I'm TP pretending to be neutral. I would only claim town if I was town or mafia. I'm only on your list to lynch right now because I've chosen to act this way. This isn't a case of "subverting expectations". Claiming mafia and saying "lynch me!" as mafia would be totally against my meta and "subverting expectations". It'd also be completely idiotic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Category 5 Hurricane Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 See, one of the things I haven't mentioned before is that the idea that you can sabotage after death suggests that you have to be on a team.

OrangeP47 Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Like, I'm sorry, but it also comes down to the fact that it's YOU ILTS. If anyone is up to something with a role like that claim, it's you. Or me, or Shade, but definitely you. If it was like KY or Cat 5 I'd believe the claim, but with you, I just can't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing_You Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 I can't help but be reminded of Nintendo Mafia. He claimed Neutral despite having some questionable (and possibly damaging) actions, yet he was actually Mafia. I've noticed bits of that peeking through here, but I don't really feeling like pressing a case without confirming Shade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Category 5 Hurricane Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 And now I'm sitting here trying to figure out if you were on the same team as Louis.

What point is there in a neutral trying to wreck people when they've already lost the game? Because it's something I requested so I could test it out? Just to rephrase what I said before, the standard way a neutral survivor is setup gives them a strong incentive to just be another member of the town. What I requested shouldn't do that. Yeah, there's still a little more incentive to help town than to just be neutral (town controls the lynch). But it's not "help town as much as you can and just hide behind people so you don't die". Anyone with a standard kill action can just kill me, I'm not going to deny that. But it does carry the "unprovable until it happens" risk that I will cripple you and/or your faction for the rest of the game. You may not see the point in that, but I do. So we can agree to disagree, and you are free to waste a lynch on me and see just what I can do in retaliation. The very fact that you're hesitant to do so proves my point about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
