SWN II: The Curse of the Nekomata (Game over!)

[animorpherv1]

I guess I should explain why I said I think Pom is town. Very simply, I say someone is a VT untill they claim otherwise.

[SpyreX]

(Its really sunk in if there is no other bastardry SC gets mad props for this damn vig role because I swear to god he took the best thing in the world and make it the worst)

Ani:

Every damn scum now is going to claim VT. As tech as it is watching you shoot cops you're gonna have to bite the bullet and shoot a vanilla at some point.

Now, since you don't seem to want to read the game aside from checking your shots we need to come to some consensus.

A) I know that. I'd just rather put it off until la late game dya.

B)Yes.

[SpyreX]

Late game day? We're not lynching ANYONE until you shoot and based on your own hesitation those cards are laid out. I'm not going to be down with you going half-cocked on another frakkin PR.

Hows about this: Shoot Dramonic.

Right now.

[animorpherv1]

*headdesk* that wasn't what I meant. I meant late game.

but, sure. Your fault if Dramonic is a VT. Not taking any of the blame.

daykill:dramonic

[SpyreX]

This, in essence, IS late game unless you're opting to not shoot ever again.

I'd rather have you take the shot and move from there.

Like you did. Huzzah!

[animorpherv1]

Really? I always took late game as when there's very little (1 or 2) scum left.

Right now, even if we only had 2 scum for each faction (Russian, American, Greek) we still have 4 scum.

[SpyreX]

I think we're talking circles but (lets assume I'm right and Dram is scum and you get more shots).

At this point, if you're unwilling to shoot a VT claim you're going to be doing nothing until we're whittled down. Which takes FOREVER. And assumes that you actually, you know, don't get killed between now and then.

So, if you're gonna hope to cruise until late game this is, in essence, late game for you.

[SpyreX]

Or to put it differently: Your life expectancy regardless of alignment isn't much longer.

[StrangerCoug]

"Shoot dramonic", SpyreX told animorpherv1.

"I was meaning to save my shot until later, but OK," animorpherv1 said.

animorpherv1 pointed the gun at dramonic. The latter, as predicted, started to panic.

"No, no, no,

NO!

" dramonic yelled.

animorpherv1 couldn't believe his ears. dramonic's voice was much higher-pitched than usual. He also managed to drop a box of matches he picked up earlier.

The gun went off, and dramonic fell to the ground, screaming in pain.

"

I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL, ANIMORPHERV1 AND STRANGERCOUG!

"

A check of dramonic's body—and animorpherv1's hearing—confirmed dramonic as the nekomata torturing everybody. She, or he, or whatever, had a lot of ways of doing so, too, not just burning people.

Could this nightmare be turning around for the better?

dramonic, who was the

nekomata, an arsonist jack of all trades

, has been shot on Day 3.

Still eight to lynch, if my math is not mistaken.

[animorpherv1]

I understand.

[SpyreX]

Ok, who is the man?

Yea. Thats right. I'm the man.

[animorpherv1]

Also, EBWOP: Great job there SpyreX.

[animorpherv1]

If my random guess is right, the nekomata was keeping all the Mafia "together". So, as such, we may get several odd-even night SKs instead of 3 mafia kills.

[SpyreX]

I'm thinking that Ivy is a total red herring (the bastardly part) and we're looking at just two scumgroups at the moment.

I REALLY want you to shoot again but I can't decide who.

[SpyreX]

Lets talk about this (since you now know I'm awesome):

What are your thoughts on taking a VT shot today? (Amished, Starbuck, and we'll go ahead and assume Pom)

IF not them, who would you take a plunk at?

[animorpherv1]

let me read several players I have not yet seen post first.

[SpyreX]

Aight.

Here's another one: What if there's someone you're about 75% sure is town AND if they are scum you're PRETTY sure they're American?

Would you take that shot?

[animorpherv1]

If I get multiple people telling me to dayvig them.


Also, I only had to read zoraster and Rifka V.

zoraster has done nothing to help anything, so I'd shoot him.

[SpyreX]

Thats one I was thinking about.

I'll lay it out here because, like you, my time now is obviously limited:

High shot priorities:

Amished (VT), Starbuck (VT), Pom (?)

Med shot priorities:

Zoraster (?)

Low shot priorities:

Ray, Poison

And my HUGE conundrum:

Rifka.

This is the one that I'm really going round and round about. I get a town itch but I could REALLY see partnered with Kai. I just don't know.

That one bothers me a lot and I can't decide which way.

[SpyreX]

OR it may be time for the most fun of games called:

MASSCLAIM ON DAY THREE AND ARGUMENTS AGAINST IT ARE DEALT WITH BY BULLETS.

I'm not sold on this yet, but this may be happening. I have a plan a brewing.

[animorpherv1]

I'm now wondering abot the nekomata:

A) Is there a backup nekomata?

B) Did anything actually happen to the mafia?

The Nekomata must have been in there for more than Story reasons.

[SpyreX]

A.) No way to know at this point (I sure HOPE not because a JOAT SK is pretty tech but you never know).

B.) I really doubt it. I think Dram was just the SK.

[SpyreX]

Just to be sure ani: You will only lose your powers if you hit a vanilla town. Nothing to do with post restrictions. Additionally, hitting mafia of any type will not cause you to lose them?
