Akkila

You just accuse me of nothing. What so "sus" have i done.

Only the fact that Hood has 1 more accusation needed to turn another card. We just to make progress before more of us die. Hood thus far has been most suspect. I TOTALLY could be wrong, but it better than not trying anything. ... After I die, it will potentially 3 witches vs 4 town or even 4 v 4?!?! We have to do something

Akk, did Ten send you a message last night about a very transparent plan?

Quick heads-up for tomorrow: we're considering making Hood the next concentrated test instead of scattering accusations across everyone.

When cards are dealt, please HOLD any Accusations, Evidence, or Witness initially and let me know what you have. Don't play them on Hood yet.

The idea is to count our total marks first and, if we have enough, coordinate them in groups of exactly 7. That lets us force a Hood Tryal, wait for the reveal/reset, and potentially immediately force another without wasting extra marks.

Nothing is locked in until we see the cards, so please don't announce or start the push early. Just send me what you get and we'll coordinate from there.

2 nights and no kill - 1 witch attemp. Town cant kill at night
17 cards turned w/o a witch being found (town started with 45 cards witches started w/ 10).
3> crads were willing confessions. (Witches dont have to confess to be safe at night) only for scum cover
1 good save
1 waisted save.
Only if witch's new Jacob was saved would they have attacked him for cover. I am 99% They didnt know. So in my books jacob wasnt a witch at that time but could be now with the new cards.
Jacob missed the night so that may be why there wasnt a full agreement with witches kill target.
Was Vic and akilla also MIA night 2?

the way i read it , there was only 1 confession - and that person was not named like the night before. that person was saved since there was no reduction in marks indicated.

I know who was saved via chat. No attack so save was not used but should have canceled the confession cost I thought.

Hoodlum

Hood asking GPT.. "so i kind of understand pat would be annoyed because of my moving the asylum thing on jacob. did the witches try and kill jacob n1?
why would that make me sus to pat/clubs/tenn?"

Spoiler (click to show)

I don't understand ChatGPT's last bit of reasoning. Why would protecting a known witch target make Pat mad at you?

[quote=Hoodlum]Hood asking GPT.. "so i kind of understand pat would be annoyed because of my moving the asylum thing on jacob. did the witches try and kill jacob n1? why would that make me sus to pat/clubs/tenn?" [spoiler] Yes — [b]Goryh is right on that point. The Witches tried to kill Jacob on Night 1, and Jacob survived because he was protected.[/b] Tenn explicitly went back to the Night 1 report and confirmed that distinction earlier. So the timeline matters: [b]Night 1[/b]: Witches target [b]Jacob [/b]→ protection saves Jacob. [b]End of Day 2[/b]: you Scapegoat Tenn's pile onto Jacob → Jacob receives [b]Tenn's Asylum[/b]. Night 2: no Witch kill occurs, apparently because the Coven didn't reach unanimous agreement. That means [b]Jacob could not reasonably have been one of the original Witches on Night 1[/b]—they were trying to kill him. However, because of the Conspiracy mechanic, Jacob [b]could have become a Witch later[/b] if he subsequently received a Witch Tryal card. So Tenn's present-day Jacob suspicion isn't impossible; it just means Jacob would have to be a [b]converted/new Witch[/b], not an original one. And yes, this makes Pat's frustration with your Scapegoat play much easier to understand. From Pat's perspective, you moved [b]Asylum onto someone the Witches had already demonstrated they wanted dead[/b]. That inadvertently gave Jacob continued protection. But crucially: [b]we didn't know any of this when we picked Jacob as the destination[/b]. Jacob was basically arbitrary; our strategic decision was about moving Tenn's pile, not protecting Jacob. So I soften my Pat read too. His wanting another Hood flip may partly be: “Hoodlum accidentally protected the Witch target!” :) rather than Witch behaviour. The really interesting question now is [b][b]whether Jacob could have received a Witch card in a Conspiracy after Night 1[/b][/b]. If we reconstruct exactly what happened to Jacob's Tryal cards during each Conspiracy, we may be able to assess how plausible the “converted Jacob” theory actually is.[/spoiler][/quote] I don't understand ChatGPT's last bit of reasoning. Why would protecting a known witch target make Pat mad at you?

I am going to rince and repeat if I survive the day. Also not the one chat Ajs replies.
Actually we both can be hiding a witch card but our plays greatly reduce the possibility.
Again I am not a witch and town shouldn't waist discoveries on me.
♧♧ purest white 100% 101% 110% etc

Note nobody has played the Cat Scratch Card.?.

THE CONSPIRACY STRIKES AGAIN
A bone-chilling mist rolls across the cobblestones as the church bells ring out, signaling another hour of reckoning. Suspicion turns to outright panic in the town square—the Conspiracy Phase has officially begun!
All active thread posting is temporarily paused while the Moderator resolves the following mandatory steps:
1. CAT SCRATCH
The sleek black feline lingering at Notoriouspat's heels lets out a low, unsettling hiss before darting between his feet. In the commotion, a sudden gust of wind sweeps up from the ground, catching Notoriouspat's 1st Tryal Card and flipping it wide open for all of Salem to see!
TRYAL RESULT:
Notoriouspat: Tryal Card #1 — NOT A WITCH
Notoriouspat’s soul remains clear on this reveal—Card #1 is confirmed NOT A WITCH! He retains his active blue cards, but the village edges closer to knowing his true deck.
2. THE SHIFT
As paranoia peaks, all pretense of unity vanishes. Paranoia grips the square as each surviving citizen reaches through the heavy fog to secretly claim 1 face-down Tryal card from the player standing directly ahead of them in the turn order:
Goryh claims 1 Tryal card from Akkila
Hoodlum claims 1 Tryal card from Goryh
Vicious claims 1 Tryal card from Hoodlum
Tennesseelogman claims 1 Tryal card from Vicious
Notoriouspat claims 1 Tryal card from Tennesseelogman
2ofclubs claims 1 Tryal card from Notoriouspat
Crywolf claims 1 Tryal card from 2ofclubs
Jacob24 claims 1 Tryal card from Crywolf
Akkila claims 1 Tryal card from Jacob24
(Please post in the forum with your target card slot selection ASAP. If a choice is not submitted within 1 hour, a slot will be chosen at random.)
3. THE REDISTRIBUTION
Once all 9 snatched Tryal cards are gathered, the Moderator will shuffle them together and redistribute them completely at random among all living players.
CRITICAL ALIGNMENT RULES:
Initiation: If you are dealt a Witch Tryal card during redistribution, you are immediately inducted into the Coven as a new Witch and added to the secret Night Chat!
Once a Witch, Always a Witch: If you were already a Witch and end up losing your Witch card (or hold zero Witch cards after redistribution), you remain a Witch forever and must continue striving for a Coven victory.
The Constable Shift: Holding the Constable card grants you the Constable title. If you lose the card during redistribution, you immediately lose the title and its powers.
The town square remains frozen until all card choices are submitted and the redistribution is completed!
