To gain trust, I'll start by sharing all night actions and info gathered thus far (which is technically nothing, but nothing can sometimes be even more valuable).
N0 - Ghost of the PastThis role was breadcrumbed in my very first post.
I'm targeting kaempfer13 tonight.
If you had clicked on quote on this post, you would have noticed that at the end of the sentence there are two random colors with no text. Yellow and dimgray, the respective colors for time and darkness. The only role that has ties with time and darkness would be ghost of the past due to its usage in ghostmare. I did in fact target kaempfer. Partially for the memes, partially because I had already started to suspect some odd play out of him. First, we have the fact that he pushed quite hard for a no vig scenario. Second, it felt like he was being a little more aggressive than normal and looking to establish control a lot earlier, with more assertive statements rather than questioning from the past. Now, this means absolutely nothing because N0 reads are absolutely worthless in my opinion and I will always believe that. But it was more than enough to justify using ghost of the past on him, especially because I knew there was a high chance he would try to policy lynch me and I wanted to spite him. Terrible town play? Maybe. But at least if I go down, he's useless for the rest of the game so maybe he'll think twice before randomly lynching me.
N1 - PsionI breadcrumbed this here:
Lastly, at least one other person should already know my role. So maybe try asking around.
Obviously, I had no way of knowing if someone knew my role. But what's the only role that does let people know other roles? Well it's psion. Psion has 5 letters, "so maybe try asking around" has 5 words. No other role in the game has 5 letters.
I did indeed use this role on andretimpa. There was some discussion about how Calindu (if i recall) messed up by giving away that andre targeted serprex and was potentially a crusader turned golden nymph. I figured it was possible andre gave out a fake role to hide this potential scenario and I wanted to check for GN in case I rolled crusader soon after and could grab a GN with 100% certainty. It potentially increases my odds of GN by 50% because now I can roll vulture, GN, OR crusader.
However, I will acknowledge that this is a potential mafia move because knowing if andre is GN or not would let mafia know if they need to kill him immediately or not. But then why would my theoretical teammate waste an anubis on andre as well? I'm going to use Anubis to get a guaranteed kill on someone if I already plan on killing them, not a conditional kill that only happens if a player happened to have had a role. Also, lowkey, I'm pretty sure using Anubis on a town to guarantee a kill that's pretty much always going to go through anyways, and on someone who isn't even close to a confirmed town is just such a bad play for mafia. I won't waste my time ranting, but the latter part of this post is going to talk about who the mafia Anubis is, because that's a real lead and we should witch hunt this, because it's all we really have besides "our feelings," which we know are not always 100% accurate, and are sometimes -500% accurate.
N2 - Iridium WardenThis was breadcrumbed here:
I'm targeting coffee tonight.
Within the earth lies the secrets of the elements.
If you click quote on the post, you will notice that a sentence is written in transparent color. The message reads, "Within the earth lies the secrets of the elements."
The only roles that are earth creatures are graboid, shreiker, and iridium warden. Iridium is an element on the periodic table, hence the word "elements at the end of the sentence. "Lies the secrets" indicates that I lied about my visible statement, meaning that I did not target coffee. I, in fact, targeted no one as I wasn't planning to block anyone, but I did want to see if anyone would react to this post, either by commenting or through night actions. It appears that Coffee forgot to use his ability. I was hoping others would share their roles first because I was curious if anyone visited either me or coffee last night, expecting me and coffee to visit each other. Luckily, this lack of info is irrelevant to my revelations so I don't mind posting now. It's also quite likely, that this bait did not result in anything noteworthy.
