Buzzfia - Party Preparations - Night 7 (10/22 live)

i grudgingly accept it.................for now..

vote: Thalia, this better work or I'll have to come after her on a night :manners:

I need to decide how I feel about Seedy. To be clear, I don't really care about the roleblock, but their reason for why I'm clearly scum is underwhelming to me (if me taking an night action == someone dies, kinda weird how A. the number of deaths each night has fluctuated between 0, 1 and multiple frequently, B. we know there's a comical number of extra lives, and C. nobody died due to Eclipse actions), and also Reasons. I know at the least I don't want to lynch them.

Also

Bid A: 2
Bid B: 2

I got shot in the night! Again! Rude!

also there's no night actions tonight so now + tomorrow if necessary is the time to kill Jwatch imo bc they still haven't done anything townish and scum can't shoot tonight!

Vote: Justice Watch

I'm not against a Thalia lynch though, I believe I was mentioning suspicions re: messenger role way back

my thoughts on the livelist

Robust Laser - probs benign 3P
Mirdini - town
Thalia V1 - probs 3P or scum
Numbers - ???
LegendaryQ - ??? (lean scum?)
Justice Watch - probs scum
Myeth - probs town
awkwardcarapace - probs town
Lordlyhour - probs benign 3P? (items etc.)
. - ???
Seedy - probs town
Sunspider - probs benign 3P
(NPC) Vending Machine - woop

if patterns hold would not be surprised by a jwatch/thalia/[legendaryq or numbers] scumteam

I agree with AC & Sunspider, the fact that they've not been taking the game seriously and contradicted their denial of 3p is pretty suspicious. Not to mention switching their vote for Wheat very early in Day 1, due to being put under a bit of suspicion. Overall, Vote Thalia.

Also, Bid one coin each on E, F, & G.

Both Dr. Liz and Pooky have visited you in the night, Mirdini.

how does that work exactly anyways -- mirdini can only be killed via lynch? because if not i uh, i have a self-serving solution

Bid 1 Coin On F.

Also, Of Course, The Night Of Sickness Happens the night AFTER I Eat My Healthy, Healthy Granola.
Just a theory, but Fairly Sure than Granola Clears out the Sickness Status Effect? 'course, Aint really all that effective on Me, Given I don't get Visitation Rights. Though a Little bit of experimentation with some granola and another Nice Item Has proven that Giving People Gifts Counts as a Visit.

Down to the Reason I was DOING experiementation; During The Solar Eclipse, I Was visited By Two People. One of them Gave me an Anonymous Message. The Other Gave me a Night Gun, A One Shot Night Kill.

Normally I wouldn't bother reporting this, because That's basiclaly no information gained. Except, Thanks to my Absolutely happymakng item, I Know who they were.

The Item In Question is a Window. It allow you to, Instead of going out at night, instead Look through your window an see the faces of your visitors. An Item of Questionable Value in a game where I believe almost everyone has some form of Visit Based Night Action. Except Fer Me. I Rolled High on them Fuzzy Dice.

One Visitor Was Thalia Who I;d say is the More Likely Message Sender, given their earlier roleclaim. If you could Repeat the contents of the Anonymous Message I Was Sent, that'd Go A Ways to proving you're Who you say you are.

My Other Visitor was LegendaryQ.

So, Like

Vote Legendary Q Until I Get a decent Explaination for why I got given a murder weapon

So for the record I lost a life AND gained a life in the night

(and also gained a bunch of coins and a ~branch~)

so I think Dr. Liz (if that's Laser? I forget what Myeth's nicknames mean) is in the clear, I forget who pooky is but they're probably who shot me and thus Probably Scum (and I suspect the my gaining a life is due to some weird inadvertent role interaction rather than my being given one???)

Bid 2 Coins on B

I thiiiiink given what's been said now about what happens if you have two branches you have a shared vote between other two branch stumps, if you're a three branch stump maybe you straight up get to keep your dayvote. Four branch stump as we know doesn't even stump you and just straight revive.

Vote Legendary Q Until I Get a decent Explaination for why I got given a murder weapon

You asked for items to put in your machine. I gave you one.

Also I think Thalia is either at hammering range or one off, just FYI

bid 1 coin on: E

reaaaally don’t like how fast that wagon happened. actually, vote: Numbers

i wouldn't mind getting lynched, i'd like to try something, but i don't think asking for it'll work

Vote: Robust Laser tho. just in case.

disclaimer this thing if successful will result in me attempting to extra murder dini, which either results in me getting extra lives, or mirdini becoming a super stump, or maybe both???? i don't actually want the extra lives tbh but i've made my bed here and i don't know if i've got three more nights to fill somebody else up with branches? Four more nights, actually, since I can't give a branch tonight which SUCKS. Five if i wanted to make somebody be super immune


i could also like wait to get a fourth branch on mirdini for another life but i think they're cool on that front. and like if dini survives this then i suppose they just straight can't die anyways. I don't know. I'm sort of going on a combination of 'wheat's idea sounds productive and also good for me personally if i can swing this????'

(the reason it's dini i'd target is because i can grab copies of the branches of whoever dies as a result and that'll bring me to four, which means I could die happily. i'm feeling in a tight spot for my wincons and basically hoping i can leverage the town to be usable here. I'd give branches to somebody else but i'd need to get three on them to feel okay with it and bring myself to the number of branches i personally need. I mean dini can also give me the branches but like, i don't know if that can even happen tonight LOOK THIS IS HARD AND TRYING TO SNEAKILY MANEUVER MY WAY INTO IT ON MY OWN DOESN'T SEEM LIKE IT'LL HAPPEN

unvote: thalia Too Close For Comfort
bid: 3 on E

Wow, a lot happening, geez, two claims against LQ doing supposedly shady stuff (first the handcuff, now the weapons handing off)

Mirdini, did you happen to specifically receive a Crystalized Life? Related: you didn't visit anybody N5

Also, I've found more evidence that supports my theory that Thalia needsa go today:

In the Buzzfia role doc, it says this:

"Everyone has 4 points to spend on designing their role by adding mafia buzzwords."
"Remaining invalid submissions will be cursed to balance the point discrepancy."

Solaris, a cursed player, flipped like this:

[box=orange border=4]
Solaris was Lucy Vandertruc, the Deceiving Astrologer, aka the Cursed WIFOM HatedDayMillerCultist DesperadoSmith Sun.

You were responsible for writing the horoscopes in each newspaper WhatTheBuzz published. Every time someone commented on how their "stars aligned" or their "horoscope came true", you smiled wickedly as you thought of how you made it all up. It brought you great joy to see people read the horoscopes, and even more when they believed them.

Now, you’ve been granted a new opportunity to dupe your own coworkers? You will make the best of this irregular situation.

Each night, you may curse a player. They gain the roletag "cursed": while possessed, a player needs only 50% of the vote to be Hammered, and will appear as Mafia for alignment investigations. Players who are cursed also receive a Desperado Badge, that allows them to Day Activate to kill themselves and the player of their choice.

If a cursed player is lynched during the Day (they do not have to die), you may curse an additional player the following Night (capping at 3 curses).

When cursing a player, you may opt to send them an anonymous message.

You curse yourself automatically Night 0. This cannot be redirected.

Once per Day, you may Day Activate: Cure a player to publicly "remove any ailments" they have. You may target yourself, if you want.

You win if, at any point, every living player (of at least 1) has been cursed and then cured at least once. A player must be cursed at the time of curing for the cure to count towards your wincondition.
[/box]

I did the math according to the role points in the doc and "WIFOM HatedDayMillerCultist DesperadoSmith Sun" only adds up to +2, which I guess is a point discrepancy that got balanced out with the addition of a "cursed" role.

Thalia claims the following:

Thalia you mentioned a messenger thing, I’m curious, is it “every living player” like Solaris’ is? starting to wonder if all the markerlike wincons are just brokenly difficult in this game

Yeah, it is. I got confused and only put "messenger" down, when everyone else has these hUGE NAMES WITH LIKE 23 WORDS

If what they're saying is right, messenger is +1, way less than the required +4, so in this scenario they are most definitely cursed

In addition...

[box=orange border=4]
When cursing a player, you may opt to send them an anonymous message.
[/box]

I'm not doubting Thalia's ability to send anonymous messages, but this means that they're lying about either a) her wincon or b) her role in entirety, neither of which I like

If we keep on hopping on and off of lynch band-wagons, no one's gonna be lynched and a day would be wasted. Remember that next night, we won't be able to target anybody effectively.
And @Arlene
Pooky is [aC]
Dr. Liz is [Sunspider]

Bid: 2 coins on A, 1 coin on G

Change of plan, i bid 3 coins on A

Sunspider rolls Fuzzy Dice

With 13 votes present, it takes 4 to soft lynch and 7 to hard lynch. Day ends in 74 hours (24th November, 4:30 pm EST).

Hey I was on holiday, but now I'm back. I put my role as messenger anyway, so maybe it's just the addition that anyone I message is cursed, or maybe there was some compromise? If there was any change to the role I submitted, I wasn't notified.

Well, if my opinion is worth anything any more,

I'm pretty sure whoever killed me on night 4 was trying to nab all the items I loaded up on the day before. But they didn't expect me to survive, which means I would be a pretty safe bet for a continuous mislynch (and apparently also mis-desperado) because I probably had way more than two lives, which I do. What I'm saying is, I have a pretty strong hunch against LegendaryQ. But I understand if you don't want to believe me because he is a much better player than I am, and this is all speculation anyways.

Thalia has been vaguely suspicious to me all game, and if it weren't for the minty bs, I probably would have voted for them D5 instead.
Laser is almost definitely blue 3p, but if LQ flips mafia, I could see those two being on a scumteam together, especially considering all that branch-gathering Laser is trying to do.

Friendlies:
Mirdini, Myeth, Seedy, AC, Sunspider, Lordly

Neutral:
Numbers, Laser

Scum:
LQ, Thalia

Vote: Legendary Q
