Open 179: B.I.R.D. 7P (Over)

[Budja]

I'm a vanilla townie.
I'd have acted exactly the same as a PR.

[Toro]

Budja is still scum. Budja needs to claim.
Toro, why are you claiming?

Pretty much just disproving the whole distancing deal, and to show that I'm not related to BudJa in anyway or sort. I still get that nagging feeling that BudJa is scum though.

[Taranski]

wtf toro, seriously? How did claiming disprove the distancing thing at all

i must be missing something here.

[yabbaguy]

Sure Toro and Budja, those *seem* to be legit employee ID cards. However, let's remember that the circumstances of the attack involved the infiltrators posing as employees, and that probably would include forging employee badges. I don't know their validities, of course. Just saying.

President: *shouting at computer* Of course you know the nature of their validities, you moron! You can play dumb with them, but I can see right through your act!

*President's computer suddenly statics, as an avatar comes on screen. It lights up when yabbaguy talks*

Yabbaguy: Hello. Just what do you think you're doing?

President + Johnson: (looking at each other nervously) Nothing, nothing...

Yabbaguy: Good. Let's keep it that way. *crashes computer that is receiving the audio feed*

*silence for a good few minutes in the office*

President: How the [beep] did this thing infiltrate our firewall? Get the Investigation Department Complex on the phone, we've got a situation here!

*Johnson dials frantically, phone rings. Within seconds, a gruff-sounding man in his 30s picks up*

Dispatcher: Hello, I.D. Complex.

VOTECOUNT:
Budja (3): saberwolf, Nikanor, Taranski
Taranski (1): dramonic

Not Voting (3): YamiJoey, Budja, Toro

7 alive, 4 to lynch. Deadline is Nov. 15 at 7 PM EST.

[dramonic]

Those were the two most futile claim I've ever seen.

Unvote
Vote: Toro

Seriously, just no.

[Budja]

I had no choice .
I'm going to reread the last couple of pages.

[Toro]

After rereading through the entire thread I've realized something...and even though what I'm about to do may seem premature, I know what I'm doing.

Vote: BudJa

[Taranski]

so toro's the lynch for tomorrow

[Budja]

Good luck.
I think you'll need it.

[Toro]

so toro's the lynch for tomorrow

With how I believe the Day 1 results will turn out, I don't think so.

[Taranski]

regardless of his flip, i think yull be the play

[Toro]

so toro's the lynch for tomorrow

Wait a second, BudJa claimed vanilla town, so from a statistical standpoint he has a 50/50 chance of being scum. How do you already know that I will be the lynch for tommorow? Yabbaguy has not even posted the D1 Results! If you already know that BudJa is town, then you must be scum.

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm now 100% sure that

Taranski is scum.

[Taranski]

lol
i'm clearly not scum, i already claimed town-alligned remember?
i know for a fact that I won't get lynched tomorrow

[Toro]

lol

How do you know this?

[yabbaguy]

Toro, for the record, you've been consistently miscapitalizing "Bud

j

a" on your ballot. You saw his I.D. card just fine, are you having vision difficulties?

Johnson: Yes, this is Harold Johnson from the B.I.R.D. Complex.

Dispatcher: With whom would you like to speak?

Johnson: The General of Communications, please.

Dispatcher: I'll forward you to Mr. Raskin.

*a groovy jazz loop distracts Johnson from a rather long 2-minute wait, then Raskin picks up*

Raskin: Yes Mr. Johnson?

Johnson: Raskin, the executive office's security has been breached. Basically, we were tapping the audio feed, then whatever weird robot personality they have running the place basically just tripped our computers and crashed our entire server. That thing is out of control. They even gave it a cooky name, I believe it was... yabbaguy?

Raskin: *slight chuckle* I'll try to investigate the virus, but I'd expect since it's localized in the B.I.R.D. Complex, tracing it wouldn't be much of a problem.

Johnson: I'm more interested in the specs of it, and its origin, because I'm not totally sold that it's an actual robot controlling it. I think somebody's having fun with a voice modulation machine to screw up all these subjects. There's evidence from what we've heard already that the survivors seem to be in a mentally crippled state. They seem to be getting in a slight argument with each other.

Raskin: *Slight* argument? I'd be livid if I learned there were people in there who wanted me dead. What else are they doing?

Johnson: Well, I'm hearing mentions to people "voting" others-

President: JOHNSON! OVER HERE!

Johnson: Excuse me, the President would like to see me now. I'll keep you posted.

Raskin: Please do. Goodbye.

President: We have a mute and poor quality video feed, but look at this! What are they doing to that person?

Johnson: Oh... my God. I think they're beating him to the de- OH GOD! *looks away*

*they witness someone (Toro actually) slicing a knife into Budja's throat. Budja immediately becomes good and dead.*

Johnson: My goodness... it's out of hand in there. Is this Mafia manipulation?

President: It could be mob justice. It's not always right, but it may be employee desperation. Either way, we need to accelerate our timeframe. Get more people involved in this project. From anywhere. Go!

Johnson: Yes, Mr. President. That would probably explain all this "voting" malarkey.

I take it Budja's dead?

Everyone: Yup!

Then I'm sure he wouldn't resist being investigated. Pat him down and see if he has anything. Meanwhile, keep going with your discussion.

Flip will come sometime tomorrow. Twilight continues.

[dramonic]

tomorrow?

You and your damn suspense.

[Toro]

BudJa, Budja, meh.

Taranski, if I were scum and Budja was my partner, why the hell would I throw him under the bus on D1? It doesn't make any sense.

[yabbaguy]

dramonic, I informed you Twilights were 24 hours before we formally began our mob justice system. It's for your own good. Trust me.

[Toro]

dramonic, I informed you Twilights were 24 hours before we formally began our mob justice system. It's for your own good. Trust me.

If I get the chance I'm

so

lynching you in Open 175 for this.

[dramonic]

you shouldnt reference ongoing games.

[Taranski]

can yu post the flip please

[yabbaguy]

I'm content with calling it a joke and moving on.

What is that?

Umm... we kind of found a bomb, and a note that said "Sorry we had to kill ______. We're just doing our job." I'd say that note was going to be pinned to their next victim.

Get the cover and let's safely detonate that bomb. Meanwhile, I think we're one step on our way to eradicating the evil infiltrators.

Budja, Mafia Goon, Lynched D1.

Good night! *turns off lights*

You have 72 hours to submit Night actions. If all are submitted sooner than that, we'll start sooner.

[yabbaguy]

*BOOM*

A boom heard round the world, for that matter.

GNN- Second Explosion Erupts in Locked Complex

Police and witnesses report the sound of what was believed to be an explosives device detonating inside the Complex. Police are now unsure of the safety of all inside, and are uncertain as to whether or not the employees inside will make it out safely.

Police decline to comment on the progress of the situation at hand as technology experts continue to attempt to crack the encryption code blocking the security bug in the Complex's system.

Some family have camped outside for several hours on end now. The fate of their loved ones could still be at stake.

Oh God... not another explosion.

Taranski, Vanilla, Detonated N1

"Sorry we had to kill

Taranski

. We're just doing our job."

Let us begin another round of investigations, in that case. Day 2 starts now. 5 alive, 3 to lynch.

[saberwolf]

I have to say my two suspects as of right now are toro and dramonic, with me leaning more towards dramonic.

Are we all good for a massclaim? I think we can win now if we do.

assume the following hypothetical situation:

Nikanor -doc
YamiJoey - cop
saberwolf - VT
dramonic - scum
Toro - VT

1. Nik and YJ claim PR, cop says they investigated and found scum, scum CC and say that they are cop and that cop is scum. We lynch cop worst case scenario, one of us is NKed, and we lynch scum day 3 ftw.

2. PR claim, and say one of the VTs was investigated and came up clear. We then have two claimed VTs left. We lynch one, one of us gets NKed, we lynch the remaining one day 3 ftw.

3. cop investigates doc or Tar, our worst case scenario. The two PRs claim, we lynch one of the remaining three, cop dies in NK, and we got a doc and two unconfirms in mylo.

therefore I propose a massclaim, but doc has to start us off in the PR claims. If cop has not investigated doc or tar, he then claims, and the rest of the game is won. If cop did investigate Tar or doc, he remains silent, and we at least play the odds.

Dammit, idea/word stealer.
