How to Get AWWay with Murder Game Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
The funny thing is that we clear Nohika today, but that's all it's good for - right now. She could be converted, there could be some behind teh scenes working we don't know about. It does feel a little like a wwaste. Sure, it's nice info to have, but it doesn't do a whole lot in the long run.

This was my point. There's some overall weirdness going on and I don't love the implication that she'll be cleared as village after this, because it sets her up as an insta-target for a night kill, or a lazy lynch target later if she's not night killed.

It just feels too convenient, and the amount of emphasis on why we should follow the plan gave me the heebie-jeebies. But I'm the paranoid half of the Trippy monster.

Aggre with whoever mentioned Wally giving off feels. These posts in particular:

I'll be so peeved and I'll never ever trust STL ever again. But my second game playing WW (and first w/ them), I'll give it a go... unless anything drastic comes out/changes through the day, hopefully we get back to discussing other peoples tomorrow.

We can still duiscuss people. Just becuase Nohika's in the lead doesn't mean all conversation ahs to end.

Just to point out, if STL is wrong tonight, that is a certain death to come the following night.

And Coopah, you were a little over the top in your rant perhaps but I also don't understand the WW frustrations you've been through like others. Lol.

I'm not sure what the death comment is about? Are you saying STL should be wolf killed if he's lying to us?
 
LYNCH NOHIKA. Seems like a pretty safe bet for a Day 1 lynch because I think we get a wolf out of it either way. If nohika turns out to be village then STL surely is a wolf. And if nohika is a wolf then yay villagers! Really doubt STL would lie this hard on day 1.
What . . . what. If nohika is village, that doesn't mean STL's a wolf - that's not the point of lyncihgn her today at all.

All it does is give the wolves a free day and another kill. I'd be all behind that if I was a wolf.
 
I pretty much have to be the newest player here EXCEPT Mr. Coopah.
 
Isn't that the way these games work? I assure, if I sound "off" it's cause I'm a new player. Only ever played the circus game...
If he's lying to us and he's not village, it's not like the wolves are going to off him for us.
 
Yeah but I feel like a wolf is more incline to lie to keep alive, Whereas a villager doesn't have much to lose.

But if what he says will happen doesn't happen, wouldn't that mean every single non-wolf is sure voting him next? I wouldn't expect the wolves to vote for him. Well, maybe one of them to "lay low". I know Trilt laughed at me trusting STL this once since I've read about them pulling crazy stuff during this game. I'm open ears if someone really thinks STL is up to trouble instantly.

According to STL he protected Nohika so if she is village she'll survive this lynch. And then he will revive himself. So they both could possibly be village.

What do you think STL is lying about? What his ability is, how it works, or what? It would be odd for him to lie about the attack and his pending death and self-rez, since that's easily (and quickly) verifiable. It would be odd to lie about the Nohika thing, since if she dies today and she's village (if he's lying about how his ability works, or lying about having it), then again, that's easily and quickly verifiable and doesn't make sense to lie about. So I really don't see what your point is.

Oh, I thought you were expecting him to be a night death (wolf killed, or I guess assassin) and I was confused why you'd expect the wolves to use their kill on him. If you're talking about lynch that makes way more sense.

Yes, I definitely meant death by lynch.
 
I'll get behind the lyra lynch as she is kinda sounding like she did all the times she's wolfed before. Keeping an eye on wally, but I hate lynching the newest players on the first day. I don't think nohika is sounding wolfy and I don't really see the point in proving she is village just to have her be wolf killed or converted. I don't think STL is lying, I just don't agree with his plan.

If nohika is village and dies this lynch and isn't safe like STL said, it would be worth looking into STL cause that'd be wolfy for him to throw someone under if they weren't going to be safe?
 
Lyra is calling for more discussion without really tring to initiate any. "I'd like to hear more . . . " and "I'm also a little annoyed . . . " but she's not asking questions ro trying to look in any other direction, which seems like fasle sentiment. Also the "Lynch Nohika I guess" feels weird to me - giving herself an out in case she needs to claim "but I wasn't totally onboard with that lynch!"

I'm going to Lynch Lyra


Well, this game has gotten interesting quickly. I'm a little confused by all of STL's claimed abilities, it's definitely early for people to be making up elaborate lies, but considering it's STL I wouldn't put it past him to actually be chaos or something. I'd also like to hear more discussion before placing my vote.

I'm also a little annoyed that this means we won't have much discussion about anyone else today, or be able to analyze votes. I'm hoping the delayed death is just a today thing so everyone gets to play a bit or it's going to get old fast. I don't remember anyone on the show having a death like that other than Sam kinda (but that was over the course of a few minutes, not a whole day). I am inclined to believe STL is Meggy though, since the writeup mentioned the person attacked being in a hospital (Meggy's a medical student).

Lynch nohika I guess, but if this doesn't work I'll be pretty peeved with STL.
 
I'd be down for a Lyra lynch. It's better to have at least some feels rather than wasting a day, imo.

lynch Lyra
 
If nohika is village and dies this lynch and isn't safe like STL said, it would be worth looking into STL cause that'd be wolfy for him to throw someone under if they weren't going to be safe?

If nohika dies, that means she was a wolf. It'd also be a super ballsy move for STL to openly lie when it can be easily debunked.

For those of you who think I went off without reason that's fine. I'd just like to let you know why. I've played this game for a few months now and for the most part have been enjoying myself. Recently I seem to gain the wrong sort of attention for a reason unknown by me. I realized that rant was going to put me under the microscope and that it would draw attention but I don't really care. I'm done trying to bite my tongue and keep my head down. I've been seered before and people still killed me because I was apparently just that sketchy lol. So anyways long story short I say what's on my mind, even if it gets me lynched. Bring it on.

I do have to say Coopah, I ALSO always get attention. Both in the first game and this one. Hard for peeps to distinguish new players vs. wolves I think.
 
Yeah. I get that. But the rant was allllll over the place about veterans dying early, not just the point STL made.

It was ... too much overreaction.

Thus, sketchy.
For what it's worth I realize the burden of being investigated early, but lynching you guys seems so much harder without that, sometimes impossible because you're good players. That'd not your fault and I acknowledge your point.
 
Outburst moved Coopah more village to me. She knows she is notoriously lynched early and was a much quieter wolf recently. Sure could be a complicated wifom situation but I'm a big Occam fan and appreciate keeping more talkative players around.

@SummerTheLynx, I would like to hear more about your ability and role.
 
Not sure where the sketchy feels for me are coming from. I don't really have feels for anyone yet, but it's hard to form any when we're pretty much stuck on the STL/nohika issue until that's resolved. I'd also like STL to come back and clarify his abilities. So he'll be automatically killed tonight but then can revive himself as vanilla?

Wally just seems noob-y to me. Coop's rant was a little over the top, but I understand her point as I've never heard this "rule" about not killing the last mod early, and it is frustrating as a newer player to always be killed or at least called sketchy right off the bat.
 
It's funny, but I've never been sketched out by you. 🙂 I don't really see why people think you're so sketchy.

It usually freaks me out when people don't think I'm sketchy, but you've said this in multiple games. Guess you really mean it then.

I swear, one day I won't be this way. I promise!
 
This will bother me for the rest of the game if I don't test it out.

Lynch nohika
 
Finally had time to for real catch up, y'all sure are chatty today but in general not saying much. I don't trust STL half as far as I could throw him (and I think I could throw him pretty far TBH 😉) so I naturally distrust this whole thing. I still suspect this isn't some crazy wolf ploy of his, though I also doubt he's telling us the entire truth, but such is WW. I wish he had waited to out everything so there could have been some legit discussion today, but I also get having a crazy schedule (having a stupid schedule myself).

I'm not feeling wally, coop or lyra ATM, but I admit to reading lyra poorly during LK, though there were confounding role issues. I hate d1 band wagons, but I'll be the first to lynch STL if nohika dies in this lynch, so I guess I'm the most ok with this since it does give us some info and hopefully doesn't cost us a villager.

Out of curiosity, what is LK?

I imagine he's either exaggerating his abilities (unkillable chaos anyone?) or lying about the effects or extents of them (ie vanilla rez) if he is lying.
 
Any reasoning behind that?
So I was reading on my phone before driving home, and it didn't load a bunch of posts, but PBC's vote for Lyra did load. Don't like that vote, but now that I'm home, I can see the rest of what she posted which actually makes her read village to me. So a mistake on my part, but I blame my phone.

D1 -

After her fall the previous the night, it had been rough day for Meggy. She probably should have been in the hospital as a patient rather than working, but she only wanted to help. You see, last night Meggy got a bad feeling that someone was going to attack District Attorney Todd Denver and she had been watching him carefully, ready to step in with emergency care if needed. Her instincts proved to be correct. Today, an angry, accusatory mob surrounded Denver and attacked. He was brought to the hospital in bad shape.

“Don’t worry,” Meggy assured him. “You’ll be alright. Why did that mob come after you anyways?”

“Them?” He could barely force the word out, weak as he was. “Girl was pushed last night. They found out I was involved..”

“You--what?”

“Not proud, but sometimes ends justify means.”

In horror, Meggy clapped a hand to her open mouth and backed away from the patient. She was conflicted, not wanting to let a man die but also unsure of how she help someone who had tried to facilitate her murder. As she wavered in indecision, she failed to notice that same shadowy figure creeping up behind her again. As her patient flatlined, Meggy was whacked in the head with a blunt object and she fell to the ground--this time dead for sure.

Dead is STL - Meggy, a med student and VILLAGER who could revive a dead player once and heal an additional villager, but only if she correctly guessed that they would die the night before.

Dead is Nokia - Todd Denver, a lawyer and WOLF who could discover the ability of one player each night.

It is now night 2. Deadline is 11pm EDT.

Heal; so are we "injured" at night, then die through the following cycle?

It's STL, everything's always sketchy. 😛

I'm Bonnie Winterbottom. I can 'check' one person each night to see if they're who I'm looking for (will gain an ability if I can find them). Am boring villager.

Not even bothered by a role reveal because last game I survived with an awesome role, which amused me to no end.
Cover roles likely based on this? Show people? wiki says she is a main character.
 
Wow. Thank you STL. Part of me is shocked you weren't lying, the other part is majorly relieved.
