The Innsmouth Look game thread.

the only thing you are forgetting is that IF athene and b.t are in a faction together, b.t can still make a nk. putting it down to 2 - 2, coupled with the fact that you might be lying.

I don't get your math there. Let's say we lynch DP today that'll leave us with 6 players so if b.t. and athene are a separate faction now we'd outnumber them 4-2. b.t. makes a NK that'd leave us at 3-2. Yes, I could be lying but I think my record shows that I am not and I know that I am not.

Of course the other scenario is that UT actually converted to scum after Ob's death which means we'd be down to 2 town (whoever is alive between you, me, and r.c.), 2 man indie faction (athene and b.t.), 1 more scum (UT).

I'm really hoping that's not the case and if it is I am going to hate Aza for awhile.

oh ya. took your numbers and subtracted an extra. either way - the whole scenario is a bit much for my tired mind.

i don't think you're lying - and at worse, we just have to deal with the athene-b.t thing afterwards like you said.

[Athene]

I've ran through a few scenarios and even if we take out b.tern (and me), tonight, if you get it wrong tomorrow then scum will win. Who would you lynch tomorrow?

almost certainly dp, but keep in mind we have no roleblocker anymore and we still have a doc. with only one scum remaining mantis will have 2 nights minimum to work even with a mislynch. whereas if we mislynch today she only has one night and town won't have a tomorrow in all likelihood. I'm just not seeing a reason not to kill b.tern. And like I said I keep coming back to the killing of I.c., it just feels like after killing char she felt the need to kill a townie to balance things. that screams last survivor win condition, not town compatible.

From the pg

You are a denizen of Innsmouth. You win when all investigators have been sacrificed.

If b.terns win condition wasn't compatible with town, surely our win condition would say something like ''you win when all threats to town have been sacrificed''?

IMO the main issue is choosing correctly between dp and ksen, if we choose incorrectly

If we get tonight's lynch wrong

mantis
u.t
don't panic
ksen
athene
b.tern
r.c

a)night 4 ksen kills b.tern and gets me too, b.tern kills r.c

town win

UT
mantis
ksen

We win by lynching ksen

b)night 4 ksen kills UT, b.tern kills r.c

town win because my win condition is unchanged
athene
b.tern
mantis
ksen

otoh, kill b.tern and me tonight

mantis
ksen
d.p
u.t
r.c

night 4 scum kill u.t
ksen
d.p
mantis
r.c

day 5 we get the lynch wrong
ksen
mantis
r.c

scum achieve parity that night unless mantis manages to successfully outmanovure scum wrt who they are going to target

[Azathoth]

Just over an hour to nightfall

DP 4 (ksen, mantis,athene, rc)
b. tern 2.5 (DP,UT)

Almost missed it!

[Don't Panic]

Guys, I'm not scum, you're lynching a suspected scum player instead of a known serial killer. Doesn't make sense.

[Azathoth]

Nightfall!!

DP pulls out a gun as you advance on him. He fires a shot wildly but you are too many and quickly overpower him. The rest of the sacrifice goes smoothly and soon his still-beating heart is in the high priest's hands.

DP was an investigator.

Night actions due by 11 PM GMT. If they are in early I will start the day

[Athene]

Still one more investigator then.

[ksen]

Still one more investigator then.

Or . . . *eyes b.t.*

[Athene]

Or . . . *eyes b.t.*

we'll find out day 5 I guess.

[ksen]

Where is everybody?

[Uselesstwit]

I'm here now, so the game didn't end. Now let me guess what will happen. b.tern will kill someone that flips town, but luckily for us athene will "view" someone as scum thereby muddying the waters for tomorrow's lynch. Let's all just keep in mind that 4 scum + an sk with a recruit is to many for a 16 person game, especially with the uber town penalty that was ob's role. It's much, much more likely that an sk with a recruit does not have a town compatible win condition.

[Athene]

If b.tern didn't have a town compatible win condition then surely our win condition would be to get rid of all threats, rather then sacrifice all investigators?

[ksen]

Were you told in your recruit PM that b.t. has a town compatible win condition?

[Uselesstwit]

and how do we know it's not? Your word? You've been recruited athene, by a god who wants to take over the world by recruiting legions of followers. Even from a flavor standpoint it sure doesn't sound like a town compatible role.

I'm thinking if b.tern wants usto think she's town she should refrain from a NK tonight. I think town has a handle on this game and I trust ksen and mantis huge amounts more than b.tern.

[r.c]

I agree, if b.tern is pro town she should refrain from killing tonight.
