*wakes up to over 10 pages of discussion.*
And hey, I can't help being inactive because I'm asleep and you all post when I'm not here. We don't all have the same timezones y'know.
Seriously you said the same thing yesterday. Plus 10 pages is quite a lot to read through. Plus I like to not post often but post long posts which is kinda my thing because rushing through posts just makes things confusing for everyone involved so please stop saying I'm inactive just because I can't happen to read the thread and over 10 pages gets posted during that time making me "inactive". x)
I agree that we definitely need an actual vote count.
I'm going to agree and feel Jolt's roleclaim is more scummy than Duffies, for some reasons stated by people before.
1) I still feel it's weird Jolt dodged the question for awhile about visiting Notty after erik's claim and took awhile afterwards to even start to explain it with the role-claim. Plus I feel like with the trend of people saying their flavour name and their role name usually in the same post, it feels weird that Jolt only mentions it later. The second part involving the flavour name isn't strong, its a personal thing I find strange. I don't consider the "flavour name too similar" to be a good argument and can probably be ignored.
2) I also have a flavour-ish rolename, similar to what many other people are saying they too have. Simply being called "the town Jailer" feels too vanilla. Remember: Priz has been hyping this game up to have incredibly unique/strange powers and roles we haven't seen before.
All we know about that so far are the Day Zero deaths in which all we learned were the "Vanilla role names" which doesn't make sense unless we are deliberately having information not being provided to us.
This is what makes Duffie's role more convincing: because with all this talk of potatoes and the sort of "something might happen to Tim/Notty if one or the other dies" sort of speculation has that aspect of "not knowing what to expect" with this game.
Duffie being "afraid" of clocks, which she stated earlier on, has some degree of validity, and seems unique amoungst the current discussion.
As far as I can tell, Jolt hasn't mentioned anything unique about themselves so far and has remained vanilla "Jailor."
Also
"Curfew Enforcer" makes sense in this game. Does anyone remember the flavour text of yesterday/beginning of the game by Priz?:
You are awakened by the sound of the pre-recorded message that plays every day at 6am to make sure the citizens are up and ready for work. As a result, you are tired and bump into a lot of people... but who do you recognise as untrustworthy?
This town obviously has some kind of strict schedule we keep together.
Since we all wake up at 6am sharp, obviously we must have some kind of curfew installed on us which makes us all go to sleep at the same time.
It also explains why some people end up breaking curfew to do actions (Power roles/Mafia/third-parties/etc).
I also have a possible theory about Duffie's "Afraid of clocks" statement.
From what we can gather with the information so far, it has to be involved with Vatu's role as being a clockmaker, which would make sense.
We obviously don't know everything about the powers of the roles people had on their deaths, but let's believe it probably has many similarities to the vanilla epicmafia clockmaker which is a killing role third-party.
My theory is that with all the current
hidden information that must be in this game (the "vanilla" appearance of roles/information not being revealed entirely on death) which leaves us to a lot of speculation, my thought is, because Duffie is the
curfew enforcer and
afraid of clocks. While out on patrol, Duffie was
visited by Vatu who was the clockmaker and because of Duffie being afraid of clocks, Duffie unknowingly killed Vatu.
Any evidence for that theory? Nope. It's a personal theory.
It's either that or we go with the idea thrown around already that Duffie would've died / ran-away (thus her jailer power not working) on the clockmaker if she visited them.
Or Vatu was just killed by some other party, I don't know.
I do think Notty has been fairly iffy in the beginning of the day.
Admittedly I do think she's effectively dug herself out of the hole, although I'm not entirely sure how it was dug when Notty was the one who even told us about their "inn" in the first place.
If I was Mafia I wouldn't even attempt that, especially as Notty, because I definitely think Notty's crazy role-claims aren't usually trusted at all after so many past games of Notty doing that.
I don't think Notty is a viable person to lynch at this time. With the evidence and claims that has been thrown around things point more toward Jolt than Notty.
There's probably more stuff to say but more people keep posting and I doubt Ill be able to keep up if I keep typing this out instead of reading and then posting again.
I'm also holding off on voting Jolt yet even though I likely will in the future because I'm waiting on a votecount and I don't want the day to end quite yet if certain players decide to jump on a bandwagon when we can discuss more things going on.
