As the sun rose from the horizon, the sunlight peered into everyone's windows.

A diner at two blocks opened their television. A psychology show was in the timeslot. It was hard to figure out what they were talking about, but some words like "The Dunning Kruger Effect" and "T-T-T-Triple Kill!" stands out in the conversation.

FIRST BLOOD: The Dunning Kruger Effect is dead. It is Wojjan. Alignment Town.


The diner's manager got bored, so he clicked the remote and flipped it in to some anime channel. Episode 8 of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann was playing.

Kamina is dead. He is Quaraezha. Alignment Town.

The episode was then interrupted by urgent news. The news anchor wiped her sweat dripping from her disheveled hair.

"Rebecca Black, known for her hit single "Friday," died in a tragic car accident while loudly trying to decipher which seat of the car she should sit in. Both her and her producer Patrice Wilson were killed instantly in a head-on collision. "

Rebecca Black is dead. She is Mashley. Alignment Independent.

"In other news. The Whole phylum Tardigrada went extinct according WWF. Tardigrades are able to survive in extreme environments that would kill almost any other animal. It was a surprise to every scientist how did the mass extinction happen. 'They just, disappeared.' according to Adam et al (2046)..."

Tardigrade is dead. It is adam2046. Alignment Town.

"This just in: Local spirit healer and worship leader found dead on some back alley in New York, NY. According to the police it was probably an assasination by the business big player Phari C. Inc...."

The Messiah is dead. He is dkun. Alignment Classified Information.

After the news was over, a commercial of Justin Bieber's world tour appeared. The manager of the diner instinctively flipped the channel to Discovery channel. The show was Man Vs. Wild, but the faces were not familiar in this case.

"Bear Grylls, our fellow comrade, went to an expedition to Panau island. He was officially declared missing.... uhh... *sob*... uhh... One informer said that he was caught in the crossfire of the Panauan government and a terrorist named "Scorpio". No body was found however. Let's pray from Bear Grylls, everyone."

Bear Grylls is dead. He is bmin11. Alignment Neutral.

The manager sighed. What an eventful night he thought. Several customers entered the door, and the busy day started again.

Day 2 has officially started. You can talk now.

Kaiba has informed me that no lynch was unfair and it should be illegal, like how mentioning death in 4kids is illegal.
I replied: "You read the rules, didn't you?"
"Screw the rules I have money!" he said in a cliche way.
He made an offer I can't refuse.

Rule 4 is re-amended:
4. No lynch is not fine. Lynch will be by majority. If no majority occurs after the deadline, the player with the most votes is lynched. If voting ends up in a tie, a random player would be lynched.

As a result, this game now has slight bastardry, :( though I guarantee that it is for balance reasons.

Role names are revealed. Alignment is also revealed.
So it's Role names and alignment only. The ability and everything will be revealed after the game ends.

always always always always
intermu
Holy shit. Hahahaha, goddamn.

6 dead in one night.

I can't spend a lot of time tonight and tomorrow, I have finals to tend to, so apologies beforehand. Will try my best to keep up though.

So that's 3 town, 1 independent, 1 neutral, 1 secret. Also no more NL.

Bear Grylls and Rebecca Black did make me laugh; now everyone around me thinks I'm a weirdo.

Also we have 2 votes on DxS and bmin, but the one that is lynched is bmin. What
Lybydose
WELL THEN.

Since the person DxS copied was a neutral aligned person named Bear Grylls, it's very likely that he's some sort of Survivor role that wins if he's alive at the end, and it would certainly explain his confusion over his win condition. He might have additional powers, but I doubt they would really be anti-town, probably something that helps himself survive. I don't think it would be best for us to lynch him since there are still an unknown number of mafia running around, and none have died yet.

dkun is probably some sort of self-reviving role, based on the role name.
intermu
Also small observation; if the flavor writing is of any significance, only three is actually confirmed dead (counting out the dunning kruger effect since idk what to make out of it).

but one is messiah, so probably can revive in some way, and the other 2 are just described as "missing".

Anyway, off for the moment, will be checking this next evening.
Rantai
Something has been bugging me: 5 nights kills occurred.

- I suspect Kamina was some sort of protective or pro-town killer type role, if so he may have contributed to the kill count depending on what Kamina actually is (I don't know the character well).

- Of the others, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the Dunning-Kruger effect - was that meant to be a trait where the player grossly overestimates their ability and ends up producing mediocre results? I'm not sure what that would really translate to in terms of abilities...

- Most of the deaths seem to be non-aggressive people/roles (Bear Grylls, Rebecca Black, Tardigarde) and The Messiah, I bet, is a cult leader of some sort. If not, Jesus (see you in 3 days?)

- No mafia were harmed this round so there is at least 1 killer left among us.

- Assuming Kamina was the only killed killer role, there are 2 killer roles that I see so far, leaving 3 unaccounted for. Unless the mafia has 2 killers, or there are 2 families (which would be a scary consideration) but even then, that leaves 2 unaccounted.

Of course, can't rule out that some of those deaths may have occurred when they tried to target someone and got reverse attacked.

- That lynch was suspicious too, there might even be someone who can manipulate ballots.

- DxS (assuming he's not lying) sits as a neutral survivor (can't see Bear Grylls being anything else)

To sum, where does that leave us?

- 11 people; 3-4 killers remaining; 1 ballot manipulator; 5-6 other roles which haven't done much yet; 1 survivor

- 11 people; 2 killers; 1 ballot manipulator; 2 reverse attack roles; 5 others; 1 survivor

- 11 people; Some combination of the above.

Thoughts?

Speculation about other roles:

Mashley (Rebecca Black) was probably a cult leader type role.

Quaraezha was some anime character. I don't know anything about it, but a quick wikipedia search gives me this: "This attitude often manifests itself in dramatic speeches which have the power to rally all those who hear them to his call". It's possible then that he had some sort of super voting lynch power.

Wojjan was the Dunning Kruger Effect, which is a psychological phenomenon in which an unskilled person believes himself to be highly skilled. In short, the person is so bad at something that he believes himself to be good. He may have not even known his powers. He also could have had some ridiculous powers that don't actually work right. Could be anything really.

adam2046 was Tardigrade, a microscopic animal that is able to survive in extreme conditions, such as extreme cold/heat and even the vacuum of space. In other words, I have no idea.

Flavor writing is not that significant. those 6 players are confirmed dead dead Dead.

DOUBLEPOST:

Now that I think about it, it seems more likely that bmin's "lynch" was actually triggered by some sort of one shot day-vigilante role whose identity is NOT revealed when he takes the shot.

The only thing off about this is that Bear Grylls was classified as neutral, while Rebecca Black was independent. I'm not sure if they are the same thing or not, but wouldn't it make more sense for a survivor to be of an independent alignment?

Yeah I noticed that. My reasoning is that a neutral character is indifferent towards the various factions. The survivor fits perfectly because he wins if any other faction wins. Contrast this with independent, which suggests a faction of it's own. Unlike the neutral faction, the independent faction is not indifferent towards everyone else. They want everyone else dead and/or recruited to their faction (such as a cult leader).

Ah right, I forgot that survivors simply need to be alive at the end and not be the last one standing.
LadySuburu
The only thing I'm minorly worried about with DxS is that since Mafia > Town, and Town > Mafia, is it conceivable that Neutral > Independant. and Independant > Neutral?
Kokizi
ok, so no scum was nightkilled. this isn't going so well is it?

Well technically scum is the least likely to get nightkilled. After all, scum usually is the one who nightkills.
From the amount of kills over the night, I guess we have multiple people who can kill though.
DeathxShinigami
I'm classified as neutral just to clear that up.

So wait...it doesn't seem like bmin got lynched rather that he got nightkilled instead which makes me think...Could there be roles that could only be nightkilled?
Rantai
Actually I was going to mention that bmin was hanged to death then shot to death some time later. What a champion.

That aside, I'm pretty sure the mod made it clear that he was lynched and the story was just entertainment.
intermu
Took a short break from the books before this escapes my mind:

Haven't checked the vote again, but possibility of someone having 2 votes?
Rantai
If we're talking about bmin...

At most, he had 5 votes on him. It took 9 to lynch.

Basically everyone had to have double votes or someone was worth five in order for a majority lynch to happen like that.

We should get some people in here, and decide on a lynch since there's no no lynch.

Vote: TBTE
Rantai
Speaking of TBTE where did he disappear too?
DeathxShinigami
TBTE = Bad Player?!

Probably the least likely to seriously play this game...
Firo Prochainezo
Probably he forgot about it. woohoo.

I got nothing ;_;

I guess I could list off people I semi-kinda-trust for whatever reason? Rantai, Kokizi, 0_o, TBTE, maybe Firo if I'm being generous. I am okay with voting for anybody else. If I am completely wrong then oh well.

About TBTE, I remember checking in at 6/20 to find out if Night had ended. It hadn't, and both TBTE and dkun's last log-in dates were back at 6/18. If the Mafia is communicating by PMs I would imagine they be on more frequently and not simply at the very beginning or very end of Night. Not a good reason I know, but if I had any good reasons I wouldn't be lurking around so much expecting someone actually smart to come up with something.
TBTE
lol my sitting back and letting everyone argue with each other and sit on the other side tactic isn't working,i have been active in this thread but do to my stupidity, I felt like anything i had to say was gonna come out being stupid, so why raise me to be a bad guy, I'd rather just sit here until i get a vote (Which just happened) then come out of the closet (no gay jokes needed).

1st, My mom was hogging the computer for like the last 2 or 3 days and i decided that i didn't have shit to do, I knew it was night, but i wasn't involved in anything having to deal with the Night process, and since tastelikecoke said don't talk about the game anymore I just decided that Nobody would vote me for not talking. I was wrong.

2nd, no i am not that stupid that i don't have a plan to find out who the mafia is, but my plan doesn't kick in till there is less than 7 people in, I don't want another bloodshed, But if i do it now it will make me look more mafia than anything.
