We now know what happened and we'd rather we didn't.

It's fair to say it's been a rough few weeks for all things West Coast Eagle. Murders on the ground, Murders at sea, and Murders in space, plus a particularly brutal Murder on the Gold Coast.

Thankfully there's some light at the end of the tunnel. The newly refurbished Mineral Resources Park is ready after that definitely planned controlled demolition a few weeks back, and Trevor Nisbettt (Definitely not a clone) has unveiled a new state of the art Holodeck with full state of the art safety protocols where groups of past and present Eagles or lucky fans can experience anything from playing at a full house MCG to visiting a 1930's SpeakEasy during prohibition to walking on the moon. After passing Quality Assurance it is now time for the first customer testing. Unfortunately a couple of Freagles may have weaseled their way into the first test group, and the safety protocols may have been deactivated.
Roles:
Freagles - Every night, the Freagles choose a player to murder. They are allowed to murder each-other if they really want to.

Seer - One of the Eagle players is incredibly good at noticing fine details and is pretending to be a psychic as that's easier to explain. Once per night the seer may ask if another player is a Freagle, and receives a yes/no answer.

Doctor - One of the Eagle players is a master in the art of preventative medicine. Every night, the doctor chooses a player who will definitely not be murdered. If that player is murdered during the night, they recover by morning. The doctor may use their ability on themselves. The village only finds out who the doctor protected if that person is murdered during the night. The doctor can save players from the vigilante.

Vigilante - One of the Eagle players has had enough and is going to take out some Freagle trash. Once every two nights, starting on night two, the Vigilante has to choose a player to murder.

Eagle - Everyone without one of the above roles is a vanilla Eagle.

Sequence of play:

Day/Night 1:

Day - Eagles introduce their characters.
Night - Freagles choose their first murder target.
Night - Seer chooses a target
Night - Doctor chooses a target
Morning - Murder is announced. If the murder is prevented, you find out who was murdered but not their role. If the murder is successful, the victims role is announced.

Day/Night 2/4/6/8 etc:

Day - Eagles vote to murder one of the players on suspicion of being a Freagle.
7pm - Voting closes. Votes at or after 7 will not be accepted unless they're splitting a tie.
Evening - Role of murder victim is announced. The doctor cannot save someone murdered by Eagles.
Night - Freagles choose their first murder target.
Night - Seer chooses a target
Night - Doctor chooses a target
Night - The vigilante chooses a target to murder.
Morning - Murders are announced. If one murder is prevented, you find out who was murdered but not their role. If the murders are successful, the victims roles are announced. It is possible for the Vigilante to murder a Freagle, and for the Freagles to murder the vigilante in the same night.

Day/Night 3/5/7 etc:

Day - Eagles vote to murder one of the players on suspicion of being a Freagle.
7pm - Voting closes. Votes at or after 7 will not be accepted unless they're splitting a tie.
Evening - Role of murder victim is announced. The doctor cannot save someone murdered by Eagles.
Night - Freagles choose their first murder target.
Night - Seer chooses a target
Night - Doctor chooses a target
Morning - Murder is announced. If the murder is prevented, you find out who was murdered but not their role. If the murder is successful, the victims role is announced.

End of the game:

The game ends when the last Freagle is murdered, or the number of Freagles is equal to the number of Eagles.

Hickey thanks
Avoided yesterday’s bandwagon but posted so was around
Laying low
Waited so he was neither too early nor too late to get onto Guero
And has contributed least amongst those still alive so least deserves the win

This is hardly fair. I played basically the same last game, and I was voted out then for not posting enough. The link between activity and the likelihood of being a Freagle have, really, been shown to be quite arbitrary.

Every single thing I do in this game just ends up with me getting killed, even though I’m innocent. Remember what happened last time?

You also have won a game as a Freagle...

And how did I play that time?

It’s my own fault for not being active enough, but that is hardly a reason to evict someone. It killed me last time, and I’m sick to death of it happening.

This is a bad way to play as a Freagle, assuming I am one. The sole reason I’m not as involved is because I’ve just been busy.

Your problem now and then is you're focusing on what's the best strategy to keep yourself alive. That is not the goal of the game if you're a villager.

Except that isn’t my strategy at all. I want to village to win, and yet I’ve been targeted again because I don’t match the posting threshold. To think that someone posting a large amount makes them more trustworthy is a bit dangerous, as it means that the Freagle can just do that to hide in plain sight.

I’ve just been busy, to think I’m only thinking about myself is little more than unfair

It's much harder for the Freagle to hide in plain sight when everyone is contributing, and they have to post content that can give away clues.

I disagree, it was quite easy for me to keep up the guise when I was a Freagle (a couple games ago) by posting a decent amount.

A freagle could just as easily post a massive amount as keep a low profile.
 
Look, this is the second time I’m being accused on the basis of not posting enough, and I can’t be bothered trying to change people’s minds at the last minute for a third time.

Kill me if you want.

The one thing they can't do is something markedly different to everyone else as it will attract attention. So if no-one posts, they won't either and it will be easy game for them. If everyone posts it forces them to follow suit.

Interesting. I have him near the top of my good guy list. What are you seeing?

Changing my vote to Darling just to keep it interesting.
Call me a coward but I'm basically abstaining. Uncertain on Hickey now. Want to see how my switch shakes things out.

Fair enough. Your switch makes you look very villager since the Freagle wouldn't care if Hickey went quietly tonight. As it stands we're going to OT.

I don't think anyone really believes Darling is this Freagle, so be suspicious of anyone who tips the vote in that direction now.
