I'd like to give a short simplified recap of things from the perspective of the townie thread. It may help everyone to see what was going on from our POV.
Day 1:
- TXjen investigates and clears Meow starting the townie thread.
- Doctor is lycnhed: via of vtoes by Cheby, steelnole, and nikr
- cheby is nightkilled
Day2:
- I was surprised to see that Cheby was nightkilled. This thread tends to go after people who lynch the cop or doc. So I figured cheb (or spitfire) would have been lynched soon anyway. Sure enough the town lynched spitfire that night. I mocked the mafia in the public thread for their redundant nightkill choice.
- My comment looks sus, and I get investigated. I am cleared and join the thread.
- duran encourages cop to investigate me in main thread. Which, with the doc dead, paints me as a target since its a free nk of a confirmed townie.
- Spit is lynched.
- I am nightkilled.
Day 3
- Duran is investigated because of his comment the day before. he is cleared and joins the townie thread.
- salty is lynched
- jean is nightkilled
Day 4
- It's clear to townie thread that the mafia is targeting vets.
- It's do or die for the town today (and everyday thereafter)
- My WPA analysis is quite weak and seem to contradict player behavior. It gets tossed.
- There was a consensus that EG95 was maf based on her behavior. So we go for high risk-high reward strategy and try to find another maf via investigation.
- Some of us reach out to a few players via PMs to try to feel people out. Flange doesn't respond so she gets investigated.
- She comes back townie and is invited to the thread.
- EG95 posts about the funeral and it was decided that she was highly likely townie.
- Txjen's gut says Nikr is maf. wihtout anything better to go on he becomes the target.
- flange abstains from the vote, but the other three known townies vote for nikr.
- It's a tie.
- RPS works in our favor and we live to fight another day.
- nikr is lynched.
- duran is nightkilled.
Day 5
personal note: I was surprised txjen wasn't NK'd becuase she cast the critical vote the previous evening.
- cop has three investigations left. We could use POE to figure out the mafia. We could seal it today by finding a townie. We think eyehate is the most townie of the bunch and investigate him.
- nope, he's maf.
- We have enough known townie votes to guarantee a tie. But still wanted some unknown townie votes to help.
- we recognize that there are only two vets left in the game. And its thought that txjen might be nightkilled that night. So we take a risk. meow makes herself a target and claims to be the cop. This also directs the unknown townies to vote with us. Unfortunately she says that she's out of investigations so she's less of a priority target.
- Blue is convinced immediately and votes with us.
- eyehate is lynched
- gambit doesn't work and txjen is nightkilled
Day 6
- It's obvious that Doth is mafia
- Most debate is on how to convince the unknown townies to vote with us. We had enough votes for a tie again. Probably could have relied on blue and maybe eg95 again by just asking.
- much ado about nothing and it happens both before and because of his gambit.
- Doth is lynched
- As a hedge against meow being nk'd, meow announced overnight that flange is a confirmed townie
- blue is nightkilled.
Day 7
- POE says djl is the only maf remaining
- djl lynched
- town wins
- town can finally unclench it's collective buttcheeks.
