Noobs...in SPAAAAACE - 5th Annual Noob WW Game

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
When did I say that? I said I'm more comfortable with them now but I'm certainly not comfortable enough to put anyone in my village pile right now.



Why?



I was saying I was weirded out because given the number of vouches and the way they were worded, the most reasonable conclusion is that there were too many people who likely had seer roles. With the new info from EM (which I believe can be trusted about that info), I no longer think that's the case.



I did think there were other explanations and I said that in my post. I just thought they were less likely than someone either lying about some aspect of their ability given statements that were made. Given what EM said I think there's an ability or two in play that I haven't seen before and am still trying to figure out what exactly they are.
Okay sorry, I just wanted to get more of your thoughts surrounding this. That makes a little more sense, for some reason when I read some of the posts initially I thought you were saying only m### could cause items. And was slightly confused, but I think it may have been just me being slightly slow.
 
Slightly more experienced players - is there anything like puppets/pupperteers?

I haven’t seen something like that in these games that I can remember. In Town of Salem that is an Internet quick version of this lol they have witches that control people. But like I said not sure about these games, maybe @Stagg737 or @CoffeeQuestionMark can correct me if I’m wrong.
 
So I'm finally back (woke up from a glorious nap) and can respond and give some thoughts.

Does anyone have any thoughts about the green-color and purple-color transmissions and narratives that have been posted in this game? It seems as if the green color text is a reference to villager, and the purple color text is a reference to chaos.

Is there a possibility that a player (who died earlier in the game and seems to have been forgotten) has returned to this game?

For instance, Ski was identified as “Marvin the Paranoid Android.” Ski initiated her own self-destruction on D1. In one of the mod transmissions, we saw a series of visual images showing droids, and the droids did not look friendly.

Would she be able to return as some *thing* different in this game (had a “faulty switch” at the beginning of the game but the faulty component didn’t become fully disabled and has since then been repaired)?

Two things. First, I do NOT think that Ski is secretly back. In past noob games there have a more experienced players whose role is to play just to die D1 so every noob gets a chance to at least play a full day and night. Considering her role was "Ritual Sacrifice", I think that's what happened and I think she is still dead.

Second, based off of write-ups and some of the game mechanics, I think there is a chaos role. We have the microbe or infection or whatever this post-restriction is. While post-restriction certainly can be village, it tends to not be. It is possible that it's a wolf ability, but it's also possible that it's chaos given the game balance (which I will talk about shortly) and the effect of it (which seems to be to cause chaos). I also question the transmissions. There have been some which seem to have parts that could be helpful to village, but there are also some which seem to have no discernible message (like the one with the daleks) and seem to be there just to make us aware that they exist. Idk if there is actual meaning behind those, but given that this is a noob game modded by Dubz, I think the presence of a chaos role is likely.

ETA: I will talk about game balance after lynch. Seeing as we're starting to get close to lynch though, I'm going to wait because I'd like us to focus on catching a wolf (or chaos) without too many distractions.

killerleaf did not die on D1. So, I'm wondering if killer avoided death on D1 because she was immune to a microbe? Any thoughts about this @killerleaf?

I think this is unlikely for reasons stated above.

There may be, but I'm not aware of any roles with those titles. I would ask your manators about this. What do you think their abilities would be? Why do you think that would be occurring?
 
Here is a summary for everyone to see:

1. Dolphin claimed she was first infected by a microbe on D3 (i.e., Saturday).



2. Ziggy asked her to confirm that she was infected, and Dolphin said yes, she had been infected. Before then, ziggy had been the last player who claimed to have been infected by a microbe.



3. On D3, ziggy posted some unintelligible comments and visual images (i.e., Ziggy Marlowe "Everything's Gonna Be Alright"and "Could You Be Loved - which appeared to have been directed to M935, Cops show theme song, Missy Elliot, "Lose Control" song). Everyone can go back and look at those visual images and songs because they're too big to post here.



4. Ziggy had also said she had been undecided about voting [e.g., to lynch mutt (wolf) or emlady on D3] and went back-and-forth on her voting on D3.


5. On D4 (i.e., Sunday), Dolphin claimed to be infected and was posting unintelligible comments, and seemed to have a post restriction.







5. According to the microbe infection tally I wrote above (see post no. 1575), Dolphin is the most recent player infected by a microbe (she is the 6th player on the list, after ziggy, emlady, shelter, grebes and pickles who have all claimed to have been infected by a microbe).

6. On D5 (Monday), Dolphin wanted to lynch Barkley.



7. ziggy asked Dolphin to answer a question about going back-and-forth on her lynch vote between Barkley and MSU.







8. Since changing her vote to lynch Barkley (and not MSU) on D5, Dolphin has not claimed she has been infected by a microbe or had any post restrictions (maybe she can't come back, or she's busy in real life, don't know and will have to wait to hear from her).

@dolphin106258 hoping you can say more or have some comments/feels?
It may just be an honest mistake but I was infected on Sunday, you said D3 at first and then D4 and just didn’t want there to be any confusion. But yes I was infected and said I had to speak incoherently, so I literally just followed suggested words on my phone. And used gifs without words when I felt they could convey the message best.

And yes for the lynch exchange you referenced, I lynched mutts bc that’s where I wanted to vote had I not had a post restriction. But I could see from the thread MSU was also in the conversation, I hadn’t really decided where she was as far as wolf to village. So I was trying to indicate by lynching and unlynching that I could swing to MSU if it ended up being necessary, or if something happened to push MSU to wolfy.

But no sense voting for Barkley I’m not post restricted, that’s definitely a good thought process, but I am definitely not restricted again thank goodness.

Hopefully I answered/provided some thoughts you wanted.
 
There may be, but I'm not aware of any roles with those titles. I would ask your manators about this. What do you think their abilities would be? Why do you think that would be occurring?

I was just curious if it was possible. Only due to how Shelter has acted recently, as I said before she was very talkative, helpful, actively wolf hunting and forward, but recently was more quiet and was tentative to fully answer anything related to her connection to Em, where once Em logged in she gave way more information about their connection, but still Shelter seemed to say very minimal about it. I feel like if there was a rule that could "control" another player that it would make sense.
Granted could just be a bunch of tin foil or Shelter could not have noticed that she wasn't answering parts of people's questions or just due to the holiday bustle as well. Just has bothered me.

As far as my leans at this point go I still am having a hard time, I tried going back and look at the days surrounding the night if poss conversion and the players I was looking into most Killer, Dr., Em and Barkley said very little that stood out to me to make notes of/has not helped me make a better decision, and due to the holiday I don't have a lot of time to actually go back and read the forum for those days so I'm working on where I think I should put a vote tonight - while my boyfriend gets more and more annoying about me taking a few minutes to do so.

@Matthew9Thirtyfive , can you give us a rundown of the timeline for making and giving away/using items please?

On N1 I made an affiliation seer item and gave it to pickles.
On N2 I made a protection device.
On N3 I made a 1x kill device.
On N4 my protection device went into general circulation and I used the 1x kill device on pickle.
On N5 I got my protection device back and made a new item that I would prefer not to share yet; however, it will help village at least as a side effect of how it works.
 
Questionable pile: Dolphin, M935

This confuses me and peaks my spidey sense a little. Both you and doc seem to be the only people left who question my affiliation or aren't at least leaning village despite me doing nothing but helping village, calling all 3 wolves, and making an item specifically to kill pickles (whom we couldn't lynch).

So you're suspicious of me because I'm suspicious of you? Let me ask you this, why do you think I'm suspicious of you?

Edit: Accidentally said "you're not suspicious of me because I'm suspicious of you?", removed the "not"

What? I'm suspicious of you because you're doing a much more subtle version of what the other wolves have done. Say that my affiliation is questionable, etc. despite having no evidence that I'm anything other than village (which I am).
 
Lynch MSU

Because I was suspicious before and I'm having trouble deciding due to possible conversion. It sort of feels like D1 again plus I'm in a food coma. Merry Christmas everyone!

So you made a protection item on N2, then lost it N4, then got it back N5?

I didn't really lose it. I was told when I made it that it would enter general circulation after a night of use. So I made it N2, used it N3, then it went into general circulation on N4. Now I'm not sure if it just randomly came back to me or if someone gave it to me. All it said was that I received a protection item, and the description was exactly what I made on N2.

Either this tinkerer role is completely different from any other tinkerer role I've seen/heard of or you're lying, because that's not how the tinkerer role works.

And now I'm convinced you're actually a wolf or a neutral. Doc probably is too, but I'm less sure there. All 3 of the wolves we've outed so far have latched onto me and then tried to convince others I was a wolf. You're doing the same thing.

I actually don't have a good wolf read on anyone and don't want to bandwagon. I was MIA yesterday and today because of travel and Christmas. I feel like at this point it would be more of a bandwagon vote than anything else.
This is my feeling, not I'm worried I'll be on even more ppls **** lost for not voting. But I'm not 100% on Barks. And now I have to drive home

Even if Matt is chaos I see no reason to Lynch him.

You said multiple times that you made a protection item on N2 and used it the same night, which was consistent with you being able to make an item and either use it or give it away like you did N1. Now you're saying you didn't use a protection item on N2 but used it N3. However you said this on D3:

Well I did use a protection item last night.

So you said you'd already used your item the night before. Then on D4, you again said you used your protection item on N2:

I think it's that (edit: by that, I mean they're trying to get the rest of you to lynch me, hence people who are known to be wolves focusing on me) and someone using some sort of protection on me (and I used a protection item on myself N2). Keep in mind, I voted to lynch grebes and pickles, both of whom turned out to be wolves (pickles didn't die, but I didn't know that would happen).

So you've said twice that you used your protection item on N2 and now with your new timeline you're saying you used it N3??? That doesn't add up.

Additionally, you previously said you were able to send or use your items on N1 and N2 and then on N3 you said it would take you 2 nights to make your kill item and use it. That's not consistent with what you had previously said. And now you're placing a retaliatory vote because you're panicking.

You're right though, you have been actively hunting wolves. I don't think you're a wolf though, I think you're chaos.

Ah, I see your confusion (which is actually my fault). I did not understand that you had to make an item one night and use it the following night. So the first night, I was able to make it and give it to someone, which they could then use the following night (I think). On N2, I made a protection device that I thought I also used that night, but apparently I did not. When I made the kill device, I was told that it takes a whole night cycle to make it, then you could use it the following night.

Basically, I am learning stuff as I go since this is my first game. I initially thought I couldn't use items myself and had to give them away (which was why I gave it to pickles instead of just using it). Then I thought I could use them the same night, which I then found out I couldn't.

So yeah, the confusion is totally understandable. But it's not because I'm chaos, it's because I'm a total noob who didn't read all the rules or any previous games before starting.

For real, we need to actually read posts, because other than Ziggy we are missing some very obvious problems.

Yeah, your post dropped my suspicion down a lot. I'm still not totally convinced because that's exactly what grebes, mutt, and pickles did, so you'll need to convince me more that you're just trying to piece things together. But you've been skeptical for a while and have been actively hunting wolves.

But no, I'm not chaos. Just inexperienced. I'm village, and I think it's pretty obvious since I've literally done nothing that would hurt village and have actively hunted and killed wolves.
