Werewolf Town of Salem IX (Day 2)

[ZergMinion]

Yep. But last night’s block would’ve gone through so that could account for one of them. The target would know if it was a pirate block though as they’d have had to submit their rock paper scissors action as well.

Isn't it pretty damn obvious that the Pirates target didn't get roleblocked?

 

[por_please_ya]

I remember that game when Tarkyn_24 kept blocking you and you were both town

What a campaigner!

 

[MWPP]

Ocha905 (Pirate) shot by the Veteran they visited.

Exactly. Which is another reason I don’t think either of the people who claimed to be blocked are the play but I was hoping to not have to spell that out

 

[Gralin]

i believe there can be two non pirate roleblockers

the action priority list also indicates a guardian angel protection doesn't stop a roleblock

but its more fun not believing zerg and kt right now

i have no idea why you keep talking about the pirate in relation to zerg and KT's claims of being blocked

its 100% irrelevant

 

[MWPP]

I just don’t see what is to be gained by faking a block so am looking for reasons why people might claim to be blocked when they are really claiming something else. With vamps the usual approach of outright claiming isn’t as helpful.

Anyway, moving on

Who would target sante? I haven’t played enough recently to know. But has he been playing regularly lately for starters ? And if so did he do something memorable in a recent break?

 

[thewizardmelon]

What's my motivation for lying about being roleblocked out of curiosity?

No idea, if I had to surmise, it’s hard to fake role claim so early given all the roles and moving parts. Best to go with the roleblock, the ‘nothing useful’ or at worst, the I forgot, reasons.

TOS is an info based game, so I’m just using the phase to see what info is out there

 

[thewizardmelon]

I dunno why they can't both be roleblocked in a game with a random number of roles.

I’m not saying they can’t. I’m suggesting it’s less likely.

Or maybe I just know he wasn’t?

sante had first game back in ages last game

 

[thewizardmelon]

Very interesting to watch people rush to defend Zerg, an unknown role; make a random Day 1 roleblock claim. All I was doing is looking at all the possibilities

 

[Tarkyn_24]

I remember that game when Tarkyn_24 kept blocking you and you were both town

Unfortunately I have no such power this time, but I’m completely onboard with Zerg being blocked continuously irrespective of his alignment

Anyone announcing info from their night action might be a vampire tomorrow though so I wouldn't expect anything useful to be announced just yet.

I think MWPP is trying to be helpful/explain it out, but it’s really just a big word salad that’s saying nothing at all

Honestly, that would just be karma catching up with me.

trying to be helpful or trying to look helpful while being the opposite?

pirate has nothing to do with zerg and KT, it's also a unique role, its out of the equation

bringing it up all the time just feels off

It definitely feels like making a lot of noise to distract/change the topic. But it’s early days and everyone has a role. Far too early to be lynching someone off that alone.

 

[Gralin]

consort/escort are not unique roles though

apart from them is there anyone else who could roleblock N1?

I don't mean something like jailor either

I can't see anything else in the list but I do miss things (like the GA announcement in the night summary)

The hypnotist can give a fake block alert

 

[jannissary]

can roleblockers get roleblocked

I'm not looking for a lynch today I'm not even expecting most people to bother voting

High chance of being seen through immediately with that.

Usually by now at least in recent games with this format we’ve had Intel but last game especially we got lucky so I have to assume this time that the randomiser has done something else entirely and that people are a little bit more cautious given the addition of the vamps

 

[Gralin]

The hypnotist can give a fake block alert

which depending on the target and what they did could look legit or could reveal there is a hypnotist

its not a high percentage play i wouldn't think beyond giving investigation cover

yeah we dont know what roles there are

there might not be much in the way of town info roles

I agree on both counts.

Is KT someone who has played a lot ?

I have hardly played with them so I don’t know if they’re experienced enough to see through it etc.

But yes, experienced players would in most circumstances
