Dammmit, Flux! Get your ass in here and let's talk strategy.

Oh, I thought you knew that, Time. I'm never the one to kickstart discussion, here or in the actual Mafia threads; I prefer someone else to take the lead. I'm not the best at co-op, either.

Well, we're vanilla and we're Town-aligned, so it's not like we have much to plan in terms of PR coordination. I guess what I'm thinking is that we should use this place as little as possible to communicate and just do so openly in the thread, since it's not like we have anything to hide. Those who would need their personal chat the most are probably those with roles and those who are Mafia-aligned; people with some sort of ulterior motive.
I feel like I should just come out at the start of Day 1 and claim that our Power Role is "Town-aligned Buddy Cops."

My strategy is almost exclusively to lay low, so I'm cool with that. And lol to the buddy cop thing. I'm good. What an odd pair we are, Flux. I know we've had our problems as a couple before, but I, for one, believe our love can conquer all.

Wait, do you mean you're good to the role claim? Because I'm totally ready to bring us immediately into the light like that. The way I see it, because we're vanilla, it's better if Mafia kills us instead of an actual Power Role on our team.
I think hate conquers all, but I might not want to say stuff like that too much in the thread, lest people get the wrong idea.

Well, what would you claim our power be?
|

Post by FluxWaveZ on Feb 14, 2016 8:44:57 GMT -8
Our role claim will be "Buddy Cops," with the power to see another team's Power Role name once per night (but not their alignment or what the Power Role actually does).
With this, we can early claim a role without having the responsibility to disclose our information on subsequent days, because that would be "anti-town." If we get killed by the mafia because they think we are actually a Power Role, that's fine; it means we might have saved an actual Power Role on our team instead. We have the choice to fake call out on someone if they role claim and we think theirs is a lie, too, claiming we investigated them and it doesn't match (risky). Our presence as a Town investigative role could also serve to hide any other who is on our team.
The other thing I want is so that we would be removed from the discussion of whether or not we are Mafia and wittle the number from 15 to 14, at least for the early goings. By doing what I have planned, I think we'll get a bunch of heat as to why we early claimed and what our motivation is and such, but doing it so early during the Day phase should make people naturally drop it over time. The common refrain is that Mafia normally don't want to expose themselves so highly like that, either.
If we're asked why we early claimed, I think we should say that it's either of the following:
1. Hint at larger significance for the claim that we refuse to elaborate on now. 2. Say that the Power Role of "Buddy Cops" is too cool not to. 3. Say that hiding Power Roles for too long when there are essentially 15 players and we don't exactly know the type of PR that would be in this game is dangerous when it can confuse things rather than help (refer to Heist), so we decided to clear things up in general a bit.
I think we should go with either 1 or 3.

This is fantastic; I didn't necessarily think the activity would jump as big as it did because of the claim.
Above I said that the way I saw it, it's better if Mafia killed us than an actual Town power role. That's definitely true, but now I'm realizing that it's ALSO better if Town kills us than an actual Town power role. Though, this is a less compelling argument, but Town tends to lynch Town D1 unless Mafia self-destructs like in Season 4's Wolf 1. It'd be better if it was Vanilla than having us lynch a doctor or something.
The one thing I'm regretful of that I didn't think of was this argument that a Doctor would HAVE to protect us on N1. I don't want to get any other roles involved with us, though obviously pulling something like this would do that.
Interesting.

This is getting out of hand. I'm gonna wait a couple more hours before I chime in. See which way the wind blows.

Didn't expect the second role claim. I don't want us to have anything to do with them saying they're corroborating ours with their own. If anything, that's pretty suspect.

Flux, I'm going to keep antagonizing you in the thread. I think it's gaining our team some sympathy. Pretend I'm still quiet, though.

We're totally in the clear for D1, though, so I don't think we really need sympathy. No way we're getting lynched now. This isn't necessarily what I sought out to do... in fact, I'm not even sure what I sought out to do in the first place. Actually, maybe this IS what I wanted to achieve. People have at least had a clear subject to latch onto, and it's better for a vanilla townie to get lynched or night killed than a power role.
Thing is, we're definitely not getting lynched on D1 now unless either of us cracks, and apparently we might have a trap going on so it seems we might not get night killed, either.
There was someone who brought up a "bickering couple" plan that we would have initiated if we were scum instead of comms being fractured, so we should be careful to not manufacture our interactions too much.
Though, really, either of us should do anything at this point. I think people are starting to get on your case because of the aforementioned silence, though, so do your thing and I'll follow up (or tag out).

I think we shouldn't say anything about how we're ordinary Town until relatively early on in Day phase 2. If we've gotten this far, we might as well, and we could at least potentially get someone to trip up by attempting to confirm what we did on N1.
Or we could get killed instead by Mafia who think we're actually a Power Role, which would still be good since at least we're dying and not an actual PR.

So what's your big plan for not having any info for them tomorrow, though?

Post by FluxWaveZ on Feb 17, 2016 20:25:40 GMT -8
Haha, well you know as well as I do, there's no big plan! I think when the time is right, you should be the one to tell everything about how we're not actually Buddy Cops. I think we'll have a Bad Time if I do it.
Right time's probably gonna be after most have said their piece on the Night events and the focus almost entirely (and naturally) shifts to us and Blarg/Kawl's team, if no one has anything to say about how we're liars or actually saying they did see us do something during the Night phase.

Actually, we could do the following on D2 as well:
1. Attempt to pursue the charade and try to guess at another team's role (not Blawl's). Something like Ordinary Lovers for a team that would come across like that. 2. Say that we can't actually investigate people and fake claim to yet another role; a defensive one that would somehow gain from either a lynch attempt or a night kill attempt.
Whatever we want to do, I'll leave the dance floor to you on D2. I think I've about reached my personal allotment for absurdity.

Ugh, shit. Letting you know now—if we live through N1—I'm gonna pull a Timeaisis at the start of D2 and be radio silent for a bit.

I don't care at this point, there's no way we can keep this up. Also, I was typing it up before he posted that.

Absolutely necessary "gambit" 2016. Besides, if all this has somehow implicitly confirmed us as Townies, I guess that's something. Like we had a Crazy Princess role.
