But looking over his posts (ill try to double check), it does not look like he revealed anything about his role, so that would mean that the mafia would need a role investigator to determine if his power was worth a kill. Its definitely a possibility. I have never played with a bus driver before, so I was ignorant to what they did, thanks for clearing it up. If there is a bus drive, then its also possible that either the forced vote got deflected to me or the target of the vote got deflected to Chaz. But we can't know unless the buss drive either reveals their role (which is probably not a great idea), or they get contained and we see their role. Still looking over your post for any other comments.
Well I did bring it up, so it's only fair that I make it easier on everyone so they're more inclined to help out. Be the change you want to see kinda thing. If I've forgotten any quotes/messages, tell me so I can fix it up tomorrow.
With this, it's safe to assume that Shidoshi didn't slip up anything that seemed out of place. If there was a more shifty cause behind Shidoshi's death, then it's safe to assume that there's a role identifier that works during the day.
With bussing, I've never played with one either (unless there's one this game), so I don't know the limits of such a role. Faon might be able to clear that up a little since he brought it up as a topic of interest. Regardless, we should be wary of any unexpected twists, which was why I proposed that maybe the target could be changed, but we shouldn't be too hasty to accept anything we have as truth. It's still the second day :p
Niernen Wrote:If we go with this theory, then it is likely the bus driver think Chaz is suspicious, because it was obvious from day one that he could not defend very well. There were plenty of people that could defend themselves better than Chaz (or I). I need to read up on how they work, but how would the bus drives ability work with the forced vote? Would they need to be targeted by it or just know about it?
Maybe I wasn't quite clear when I wrote that, I meant 'save the obvious targets' as in saving those that seem the most threatening to mafia at the point of Night 1 from being vote affected. This was theorised in hindsight, but my reasoning was along the lines of that you were more likely to defend yourself reasonably than anyone else here (the suspicious part is only so I cover all bases, I believe that you're Town), so in essence the busser will have saved both the initial vote modifier target and you. This does imply that the busser is pretty damn smart in deducing who's weakest to a vote modify (which is likely a mafia role right now with these bus theories) and in deducing a townie that can defend themselves.
Regardless, we have no way of confirming it with what we have now, which is why I'm really looking forward to Day 3, or Night 3. Maybe we can finally get some unlocked skills and see what they do to affect the nature of the game.
A reminder to keep somewhat wary of time, and that we do need to pick a name from the our list of suspects to lynch. Chaz, Meta and TheBirds seem to be the most suspicious to everyone so far, and discussion hasn't really peaked beyond that because none of the accused are actually talking aside from Chaz.
I'll change my vote to [Vote] TheBirds by the virtue of the following:
- I've rolled the dice towards TheBirds, and was silenced. If we reveal the alignment of TheBirds, we might be able to find some sort of connection between results and alignment, or establish that it isn't the case and it's linked to the numbers.
- While I doubt they're mafia, I still consider a silent Neutral to be dangerous. They don't have a word restriction that delays post speed and value.
I highly doubt that my vote will amount to anything, but in case it does, I'd rather stick to my guns and put my vote where my mouth is rather than cower behind a self-vote and call names from afar.
edit:
(forgot to mention, school legitimately starts tomorrow rather than stupid guessing so I'm calling it an early night and I'm warning you guys in advance of less frequent posts.
goodnight everyone!)
