M16 Empire Chat

If you need to back off, I’d recommendgoing away from thread for a while, then changing your mind so it seems less abrupt

Tell me how this sounds:

Ok. After reviewing what has transpired earlier I really feel like GKB and/or Laser could be aligned with catty.

My plan for today was to try and divert sus away from catty and put it on a couple other players. To see if anyone would take the bait and jump on a wagon. As soon as I mentioned EK being a little sus, they both fell in line behind me.

This tells me a couple things.

  1. EK is likely town.
  2. Either GKB and Laser are both scum and Catty is separatist or one is scum along with catty.

Be honest. Let me know if it is unbelievable or comes on too strong

The after reviewing what has transpired earlier part is kinda sketchy imo

The rest sounds fine tho

Yeah good call.

Should I just go ahead and completely bus catty by sharing the information on why I think she is seperatist, to help me deep wolf?

Hmm

I’d wait for more town to get in thread before doing it

To be honest for town it makes the most sense to vote out EK and tell him to kill catty if he is town. That way you can clear two spots and still be at MYLO…assuming you are pretty sure one is scum.

Should we push that or is it better to keep EK around for tomorrow?

Hmm

I think if we do push for it, I should be the one doing it - you’ve been kinda moving around posts wise (if you get what I mean), and I’ve already interacted with laser with a conversation slong those lines before

Yeah. Good call.

Also I’m planning to wallpost with opinions on everyone in the game so far

Gonna try to avoid hard clearing as many people as possible, but I think quin is one I gotta let go into clear (or at least, not PoE for today)

Dang…quin just sniped our plan.

Thanks, buddy.

So if Catty is voted, tomorrow it will. Be 2v4, right.

If we somehow got town to vote out EK and he kills Catty. Tomorrow it will be 2v3. So it doesn’t make much difference. We still need a miss ly*nch tomorrow. But it would give us an advantage is one of us is voted out tomorrow.

Maybe you could frame it as…

If we vote out catty and are wrong, we lose.

If we vote out EK and are wrong, he then kills catty and if she is scum we survive another day. If she isn’t scum…we would have lost anyway, so not harm.

I beleive Laser and/or GKB made this point earlier but I didnt really understand it at first and ignored it.

God, if we can somehow get EK voted out and he kills GKB…that would be epic and I can’t wait to rub it in EK’s face in postgame.

(Hey, future EK reading this. :kissing_heart:)

@cattypaws_f, you should go ahead and vote EK when you get on for self preservation.

If we see an opportunity we may be able to vote him out.

Okay I fleshed it out some more

Basically it’s a gambit that’s disguised as another gambit

It goes like this

Also please tell me before we hammer

I have an extremely important legacy post I need to make

Dear Mafia,

I bet you think you’re pretty smart. You’ve made it to mylo, and if all goes well you’ll either win or get to lylo. You must feel proud, having made it this far.

But just when you thought you had this game in your pocket, let me tell you something.

I am the doctor.

@cattypaws @GoalkeeperBoss @LaserLab @EricKline @brandn03 @k.aylee2412 @quin

I want you scum to see this. I want the town to see it. I want everybody alive in this game to see it. And here’s why.

I’m telling you right now that I will protect one of myself, brandn, or quin. All 3 locktown have a chance of being protected. I will also tell you that in no circumstances I will protect laser, GKB, or kaylee. So you have a choice. Attack the locktown, and risk losing your kill when you need it most, or kill someone in the PoE.

I know what you devious little scum with your notes are thinking: “didn’t squirrel claim vt on the stand eod2?”

You’re absolutely right. I did. I didn’t claiming on the stand would not save me because the doc/rber is not alignment indicative because of how powerful scum rber is.

Of course, this could all be an elaborate bluff. A last-ditch gamble by a VT who knows he or another locktown is going to die and wants to try to mindgame the mafia into slipping up. That’s probably more likely.

But I know you. I’ve seen how you’ve danced around attacking high-value targets. Are you really bold enough to risk it?

And before you even think of killing me, I will straight up tell you that I can heal myself. I selfed N1, healed Arete N2, healed Arete N3, and brandn N4. You can’t bank on a guaranteed kill on myself.

So what’s it gonna be? Risk the heal, or do us a favor and kill within the PoE?

The apparent gambit is to intimidate mafia into attacking someone in the PoE pool, making our jobs that much easier as town. The gambit is to fakeclaim being a doc on me or you or quin, in hopes that mafia will be too scared of the potential heal to attack either of us.

The actual goal is to give town a plausible reason why mafia didn’t kill me or brandn (because we’re scum hehe) and put suspicion on the remaining members of the PoE.

That said, I don’t really think we need to do this, it would just be nice to not have to explain why we’re alive come next day.
