while i'm not sure if i trust bk, 8flight hasn't done anything (and his mii did vote for himself) so he's just slowing the game down.

Vote Summary
  • 8flight 5
"So, last night one of us managed to take down a troll," Hoeloe addressed the crowd. "Sadly, sedron was taken by Hackers shortly afterwards, so we can't count on that again."
"Something has to be done," said Mikkofier.
"I let the Talkhaudatchi Island decide, and 8flight voted for himself. I'm going with them, so I vote 8flight," said bkamakaze.
There was a strong feeling of agreement from the crowd.
"So, it's 8flight's turn then." Hoeloe walked up to 8flight's avatar, and swung the hammer.

8flight was banned. They were a User, a regular Talkhauser with no special abilities.

Swiftly through the night, the troll approached their target. Their prey was hunched over a computer screen, running repeated IP traces, to try and track down the attackers. Sturg heard a noise from the window, and looked up to see...

Image

"TROLOLOLOLOLOL."

Sturg screamed, face contorting into a horrible, grotesque expression and was still. The troll made their escape, and the Talkhaus had lost another member.

Sturg was trolled. They were the Webhost, a respectable user who could determine whether or not another user was a Hacker.

FluffiMasta heard the scream from Sturg's place, and began to run. Ducking into alleyways, climbing past abandoned threads, Fluffi kept moving, trying to get as far away as possible and then...

"ERROR: Username not recognised."

Dread began to creep over FluffiMasta, who tried to run another way.

"ERROR."

Fluffi tried again.

"ERROR."

The walls closed in, and Fluffi screamed.

That morning, there was only a pile of ash left.

FluffiMasta was hacked. They were a User, a regular Talkhauser with no special abilities.

So we learned that Talkhaugotchi Islanders can't be trusted (they might be on the side of the trolls, which would make sense) and we lost three of us, one of whom could've been real useful. Last night could've gone better...
Could there be an anti-troll version of the Webhost (assuming there's not more than one Webhost)?

bk, how did you choose which four players to go with in the poll?

I'm guessing I was put in because I said I was suspicious of you and this was a way to potentially retaliate.
8flight was idle
Fluffi was a regular user and the only reason anyone had to be suspicious was him misinterpreting the OP and roleplaying at start.
And Pholtos has been relatively quiet but nothing else.

What did you have to go on?

At this point I think it's safe to assume that I'm the only town person left and you're all out to get me, haha.

I'm the "Spellchecker" who figures out who's a troll or not. I reckon I've got a reasonable chance of dying tonight so here:
NIGHT 1: I didn't realize I had to send in my night action during the day so I got nuttin'
NIGHT 2: Sturg is innocent, also he dead.
NIGHT 2: Pholtos is innocent.

Not much to work with, but hey Pholtos is innocent. That narrows it down to:
Mikkofier
KobaBeach
Whimsical Calamari
Elgadika
bkamakaze
Falky

I suspect Falky and calamari the most, but that's just hunch. I'm not exactly sure the town can even win at this point.

At this point I just don't know what to do.

Koba's silence is weird to me and bk still bothers me, but that's all I got at this point. And like last time, not voting because that bandwagon didn't end well.

i think we're all a bit too scared to put up a vote
the last time i did ended in spectacular failure

but knowing both holy and pholtos are innocent at least gives us someone to trust

Holy's claim sounds reasonable enough. I'd like to point out that Willhart, a troll, quickly jumped on raekuul's vote for me on d1. Does it seem likely that a troll would vote for a fellow troll on d1 after only one other person (or two as he thought) had voted for him?

im nightposting

but it's apparently ok????????



Hoeloe's "any side could still win" post on the discussion thread is strange to me...

Window Squeegee, who would you accuse of being Scum?
Holy, what seemed suspicious about Falky? (And I guess you could clarify why you're suspicious about me for the sake of the rest of the Town.)

Now let's see what everybody remaining has done:

-Pholtos and Holy are (presumably) innocent
-Window Squeegee was the first to jump on sedron's NL bandwagon, and the only other post was the recent "well we can't do anything now." which seems a bit odd to me.
-Kobabeach has been silent the whole time but online
-Elgadika has not been posting in any threads the whole time, posting once today and once four days ago
-Mikkofier has been posting generic observations and jumping onto bandwagons fairly late
-bkamakaze jumped onto the NL and Vergalon bandwagons pretty quickly, and used questionable methods to determine the target of an RL (who ended up being a sitting duck anyway, but regardless)
-Falky was providing lots of strategy, and most recently quickly jumped in to defend himself against Holy's inclusion of him in a list of possible Scum, using a classic form of reasoning that's bound to sound suspicious to someone like myself who is currently grasping at straws to find any possible evidence. ("Why would a troll vote for a fellow troll so early?")
-I voted for Vergalon thinking that we could get some information to drop in a doomed-to-fail vote (things didn't go as planned), and I've been voicing my suspicion of bkamakaze ever since.

Now, what can we make of this information? It's too late for today's vote, and two people on this list are likely to die come morning, but here it is.

Vote Summary
No votes

"Things are not going well." Hoeloe addressed the crowd. "We've lost a lot of good users, and only managed to take out one troll. We need to make some progress."
There was a lot of muttering, but no-one stepped forwards.
"Nobody?"
Whimsical Calamari stood up. "I'm suspicious of bkamakaze, but I'm not sure enough to vote."
There was more muttering, but nobody put a vote forward.
"So, this is what you're doing? So be it."

No-one was voted to be banned today.

The trolls scuttled across the rooftops, working their way towards their next target. Holy was busy writing an angry response to a post on the Talkhaus, and didn't notice the figures descend.

"...and therefore, you should have used "you're" not "your" in this context."

Holy finished typing, and looked back, satisfied.

Something moved behind Holy, and a horrifying image came into view.

Image

"U SUX! I H8 U! LOLOLOLOL!"

When the trolls fled the scene, Holy was lying on the ground, face contorted into a horrible smile.

Holy was trolled. They were the Spellchecker, a respectable user who could determine whether or not another user was a Troll.

There was a chill in the air. Those who felt it were sure of just one thing: something had changed tonight.

A player has had their role changed!

A figure stood silhouetted against the moon, cape fluttering in the wind. They grasped a glass hammer, glinting against the light. It bore some resemblance to the one weilded by Hoeloe, but smaller, and more fragile.

The figure saw its target and dived towards them. Mikkofier heard the sound, and turned to see the hammer swing down. As the hammer struck, it shattered into a million pieces, and Mikkofier exploded into ash.

Mikkofier was banned by a mysterious vigilante. They were a Hacker, an offending user behind some of the attacks!

Well that was unexpected.

We can't be sure that there's no chance of another two-death night, but now that we have one of each faction gone we still have a fighting chance.

Any others with information-gathering roles, if you exist, I think we might need you to come out now. There's no excuse.

Most recently Window Squeegee and Falky appear off to me. Window Squeegee because of the only two posts being "we should stay safe," and Falky because of how quick he was to defend himself against an accusation that didn't really occur.

Intriguing. I wonder if this was like a turncoat or something? If so, that's not good news.
Whimsical Calamari wrote:Pholtos and Holy are (presumably) innocent
Seems like pholtos is confirmed inno now. Possibly a third party or something, but certainly not a troll at least. Seems safe enough to me.
Window Squeegee was the first to jump on sedron's NL bandwagon, and the only other post was the recent "well we can't do anything now." which seems a bit odd to me.
Difficult to say. We apparently don't need a majority to lynch in this game, so it would have made some sense for a troll to vote an inno there.
-Kobabeach has been silent the whole time but online
-Elgadika has not been posting in any threads the whole time, posting once today and once four days ago
Yeah, those two aren't being very helfpul. Hard to say whether that means they're a disinterested blue or what though. I just checked, they both posted during the last game (Koba was a tracker and Elgadika was a blue, for the record)
Mikkofier has been posting generic observations and jumping onto bandwagons fairly late
I suspected him somewhat myself, hence why I killed him. I'm the vigilante mentioned in Hoeloe's post there. A Moderator, to be exact. My power was that once a game, I could choose three people in order. The first of those still in play the night after I activated my power would be banned. Mikkofier seemed a bit fishy and I thought if I was going to use my power, yesterday would be the time, so there you go.
bkamakaze jumped onto the NL and Vergalon bandwagons pretty quickly, and used questionable methods to determine the target of an RL (who ended up being a sitting duck anyway, but regardless)
Not too much to add here, except that 11 people voted NL d1 and 5 people voted for Vergalon d2.
Falky was providing lots of strategy, and most recently quickly jumped in to defend himself against Holy's inclusion of him in a list of possible Scum, using a classic form of reasoning that's bound to sound suspicious to someone like myself who is currently grasping at straws to find any possible evidence. ("Why would a troll vote for a fellow troll so early?")
The main reason I defended myself there was because I'm a PR and Holy seemed relatively clear. If he was going to lead a lynch, which seemed like it could be the case at the time, it would either be on you or me, as we were the two that Holy specifically stated he suspected the most. See above for my claim.
I voted for Vergalon thinking that we could get some information to drop in a doomed-to-fail vote (things didn't go as planned), and I've been voicing my suspicion of bkamakaze ever since.
Any more clarification on your suspicion? As you said, you also voted for Vergalon there.
