God doesn't need to care if the cult leaders die, he wins on his own. Although yes, dead cult leaders is also a good thing.
That was my first instinct when I heard that there were 3 cults...but read this:
Mod, in Signup Thread wrote:Edit3: Game ends when Nietzsche or a cult wins. God just leaves the game.
If we kill 2 cult leaders, the game ends and we lose. Killing recruits is the second best thing to killing God.

Vote: mask man
because God is definitely a masked man.

The second one I'm not so sure. Going after recruits means one/two of the cults will be stronger than the other.
Which is only a problem if one cult achieves an absolute majority, right? And I'm not suggesting going after recruits. It doesn't really help us. But killing Nietzsche means that we lose (unless recruited), and killing a Cult Leader brings us closer to a Cult victory.

QFT. If you think someone is Nietzsche,
don't say it
! It helps God, hurts the Agnostics, and indirectly helps the cults.

If we kill two, then game ends with a town loss. So the first one is good to kill, not so much with the second.

And Jebus, you make no sense. Actually, I'll do what I jokingly said in the sign-up thread: D1 bandwagon on Jebus!

zwetschenwasser wrote:Why are jebus and zakeri God/Nietzsche/whatever again?
I won't accuse anyone of being Nietzsche. But Jebus is scummy for not being clear, and possibly speculating who has the role Nietzsche. Zakeri is scummy for thinking that Jebus was speculating on who has the role Nietzsche.
Or at least that's my level of understanding of it...
And scummy basically equals God? I guess?

Wait, do you believe that? Because you're voting for Jebus now for being unclear but you also said he's possibly speculating. What's the difference between you and Zakeri?
No, I don't believe that. That sounded like it was the argument being presented.
The difference, at this point, is that Zakeri backed off of Jebus. I have not.
Jebus wrote:I thought that the "I wouldn't be so fast to use a one-shot kill" line meant that he had a one-shot kill to not be so fast to use. I didn't see it right away, but I can see how it could be easily taken as "If I were Nietzche..."
So you thought he had a one-shot kill? How did you think that was worth noting in-thread?

And Zakeri, how did his statement clear up your suspicion?

So you thought he had a one-shot kill? How did you think that was worth noting in-thread?

And Zakeri, how did his statement clear up your suspicion?
because, looking over Jebus's claim of not linking what he quoted directly to Nietzche and the way he phrased his original concern, it's apparent to me that he didn't have an end to the thought process he started and was asking others what that end was. It's something I've tucked under careless mistake, again because it sounded too silly to be fake :/
What???? YOU are the cult leader scum!
Sounds like something a cult leader would say.
DGB: You're right! I'm the islam cult leader. Lynch me now!
OK

Reverse psychology will backfire on you.

What just happened here? I wish I could vote for both of you.
So you think he had no apparent reason for saying what he did? That makes very little sense. I don't buy it.

I seem to be missing the point here. I have read the roles, and reread, but why only 1?
Game ends when God dies (Agnostics & Nietzsche win) or when 2 Cult Leaders die (remaining Cult wins). God's win is the only one that lets the game continue.

More Jebus votes, methinks. Nothing else is as scummy so far.

Why is it inconsistent, and why is that bad enough to vote for me?
Both questions have the same answer: First you say that you were reaction-fishing as your explanation, then you say you weren't thinking about reactions at all.

This is bullshit and you know it. Zakeri admitted to having tried to give a logical explanation for his in reality unplanned actions; when you actually
admit
to having lied, there's no fucking
inconsistency
. And don't tell me that as town you have never acted more confident than you actually were.
No, I don't know it...if you
lie
, it is
inconsistent
with the truth...no?

I have only acted more confident than I actually was once as town, and that was my very first game.

I think Jahudo's point is minor. mask man is simply being infantile, and ZSW has such stupid comments as part of his meta.

Well how often do you think others do it? For fuckssake this game has to start somewhere be spontaneous.

BTW X is also cult. SilverPhoenix also might be.
Wow, your logic is crystalline. Actually, what does faux confidence have anything to do with this? First she says that she was reaction fishing, then she says that her random vote was purposeless. This means she was trying to shake attention off of her by giving a fake reason.
zachattack wrote:People seem to be trying to take heat off Zakeri. Namely zwet and maskman. Therefore there is a decent chance he is god, it's more likely to be him then anyone else at this point. Therefore I agree with Jahudo, and didn't feel the need to post anymore.
Huh? ZSW is even voting for Zakeri.

Jahudo wrote:I was talking about the inconsistency X explained in post 149 but I looked at it again and I agree with you, she didn't say a lie.

If I read it correctly, she wasn't thinking about reactions at all, not that she didn't know what reactions to expect.

Only a retarded cult leader or a retarded God can dare the whole town to lynch him in D1 (policy reasons, antitown behaviour, etc). Or a genious and I dont think you are that good. (Are you an alt of someone?) I buy that making fun of things can be a lifestyle. And meta reasons.
And it's exactly this logic that gets me killed every time. As in, very bad logic, even for this setup.

So I ignore this altogether (as much as I hate it) and assume it's a joke. I thought I unvoted zwet already, but either way,

Agreed. On the surface he is stating the latter is true, but since the results and implications of these reactions were not part of his motivation to change his vote, I think that either:

A) he was not looking for reactions but instead getting his way out of a serious situation to a non-serious one, or
B) he wouldn't think about the effects until after the experiment and also not care about suspicion he received because townies aren't afraid of being under suspicion.

So if/when he does have a case for these reactions his motivation may become clearer.
Okay...I gotcha. It's a nulltell. And you just made me realize that Zakeri's a guy.

Hm, so back to my old hunch, or a new one? I'll see what Double A says first...

Well, not really. There were conflicting descriptions about what DGB thinks lurkers are and I asked to clarify.
Both want to not be lynched just as much, which is a motivation for lurking.

mykonian, zachattack, the logic brings you in a circle. If everyone agrees that scum go with the flow, then scum will try to differentiate themselves. I suspect mykonian because he has jumped to a conclusion that would theoretically eliminate himself as a suspect. zachattack, I doubt a CL would do that either, but there's no reason for anyone to do that.

Here's my current list of players that stand out as important to watch:

Bloodmoney:
Can't quite understand - trying to filter out the profanity and person-attacking. I wish he had completed games that I could look up his meta for. Not quite suspicious, but worth keeping a close eye on, if that's clear.
Double A:
Newbie. He found the wrong thread. Slightly suspicious due to his initial vote, but at the same time, would he know better?
Jebus:
Has done little other than the Nietzsche fishing previously discussed, talking about ZSW's impossible claims, and reacting to people who are suspicious of/have voted him.
mykonian:
Almost absolutely convinced that God would not play aggressively.
pacman:
Has 3 posts. A late random vote, a request for prods (ironic) combined with an FoS of ZSW, and a question of "What do we do?"

Jebus' post 331 is poor, IMO. I think he's making a weak case, especially seeing as much of his criticism of ZSW is simply ZSW's brevity. ZSW's response is also adequate.

Because there is 1 role in 20 that we don't want him to claim, and 1 role in 5 that we do.

And plus, he expressed the idea that agnostics are bad.

I still think Jebus is God over pacman. But a pacman lynch wouldn't be terrible.

I'm inactive. Yeah, I admit. But zswetchen is worse than inactive. His posts are getting me insane; he votes, then changes his vote 10 minutes later. Then, he keeps parroting and saying useless stuff. He is definitely annoying me.
Show this stuff. I think ZSW has been pretty pro-town. The only 2 charges I've heard levied against him are that his posting style is disenchanting and that he shouldn't have joked about being CL or God.

Eagerness to get to the night phase is a scum (God/CL) tell. It'd be a tell coming from a newbie or an experienced player, but experienced players would know better.

While what you said is related, it doesn't take away from the fact that you said that your play has been equal to your scum-style play. If playing like you are scum is not scummy, well, I don't know what is.

So while I did not quote the context, the context didn't make his statement innocuous.

Lord Gurgi should already know this, but I'll be V/LA up to and including Tuesday, February 17th.

Maybe you'd try to play the same, but you wouldn't actually play the same. If what you just said is true, then we should just randomly vote off people without analyzing play whatsoever.

mask man's 477 makes no sense.

I agree with the first two sentences. Not sure about the last one...but it's altogether possible.

pacman's 499 is pathetic, partially mitigated by 500.

Wait a second...I don't understand what mykonian & ortolan have against each other.

My first reaction to this wagon was "Why qwints?" But then again, his actions haven't been much different than pacman's. I'll switch votes if required for a lynch.

I wouldn't be disappointed at all with lynching a CL first. That will give us plenty of more chances to find God, as the number of Agnostics won't shrink by 3 a day, but 2. I thought we already went over this.

Why is everyone backing off of qwints? Claiming Recruit is a smart choice for God or a CL. At best we've won. At worst we didn't get rid of an Agnostic.

Unvote: Double A

I really should use the preview button more consistently.

Anyway, if Jebus is Nietzsche or a CL we don't want him dead. Let's hope he's a recruit (or that qwints is lying scum, and just screwing around in his dying moments).

In the meantime, ZSW's wanting to kill Jebus was a little scary.

Unofficial:
qwints --- 9 {Bloodmoney, Jebus, zwetschenwasser, SilverPhoenix, DrippingGoofball, pacman281292, X, xofelf, ortolan}

As a side note, does DGB usually revote someone? I realized that she revoted for qwints, and then looked back - of her 7 votes, 3 of them were (in effect) "Unvote: A, Vote: A."

Yup. This is the part of me that doesn't believe that you're telling the truth about Jebus.

Yes, someone hammer. No, don't waste the town's one-shot kill on qwints. Unless Nietzsche is absolutely certain that he's found God earlier, he should not use it because if he's wrong, losing the Agnostic majority = losing the game.

Welcome back, mask man. Looking forward to your analysis.

Slightly disappointed that qwints was at least roleclaiming the truth. Anyway, I'm not liking Jebus, Zakeri, or pacman right now.

Fixed.
Jahudo wrote:Okay, so Jebus is one big pile of WIFOM right now.
I'm absolutely willing to bet he's not town. The problem is, town that we want dead or not...I can still see him as a possible God because qwints tried to paint him as a CL, and said that he was trying to help God. He also definitely was scummy with his Nietzsche-slip thing, something that is not so much something cult would say as much as God. It's a doozy.
Jahudo wrote:The Zakeri vote and then subsequent WIFOM is also interesting. Zakeri called qwints "opportunistic" for his vote. Qwints switched to another target like he did other times without saying what that does to his suspicion on the previous vote. But how did he come to this conclusion after voting for Zakeri:
qwints wrote:There are a lot more players in the game than just Zakeri. Would God really have been the first player run up so fast?
Granted, the wagon was early and Zakeri STILL hasn't fully defended against it, but this quote is probably the only instance where qwints says he doesn't suspect someone.

That doesn't matter. What matters is that their only chance of winning would be getting recruited and lynching the other CL before God. Therefore, another player who doesn't want God dead.

Either.

Wait, scum wants to tell people they're scum?
I imagine that they subconsciously might in some cases. It'd be a form of gloating. But I don't see how it applies in this situation, because I don't see what God would have to gloat about.

I replaced in, and didn't know anything of what everybody else knew as of that time. I didn't even know the rules that were stated in the signup thread, but not in the game thread. I had 5 posts before my vote for qwints:

1 saying I'm here
1 saying jebus didn't tell me anything in his update he gave me
1 saying it looks like SP made a scumslip, and an update on how far I've read (7 pages)
1 with another update on what I've read, unofficial vote count, and a comment on qwints:
alko wrote:I don't know why Qwints has so many votes, I expect it's something I haven't read yet.
1 reinforcing jahudo's catch of DGB unvoting and revoting the same person in one post. I noticed this only because I was doing the unofficial vote count.
You hit it right on the money. Except this is
why
we're suspecting you. As far as we can tell, you might have just thrown on your vote to appear this way. You didn't explain your vote, and although I agree that it was a good person to vote for, it looked opportunistic.

This is qwints's first post. My interpretation of this combined with his CL claim:

"I tried to cult Jebus, and failed. Cult attempts on Nitz will fail. Jebus is Nitz and killing him fulfills my god's win condition. Otherwise I'm lynching an opposing cult leader, and I will come closer to winning. This is easy."
That makes a lot of sense. However, it could also be, "Vote: God." Not the most logical move, but distancing is natural, and when you only know one "partner"...

want him dead. Even if it's particularly unlikely that any idiot following the game would cult Double A.
I don't think Double A is a likely recruit for that very reason. Plus, we shouldn't be looking for recruits. Yes, they're the second best thing to kill, but we shouldn't waste a lynch on someone who we don't think is God.
Bloodmoney wrote:

I agree with al here. A CL wouldn't keep pushing a wagon that has potential for a lynch if the lynchee was God.
Not fervently. But if there's no chance of it happening (like 1 day before DL), then he's warning us that it would be dangerous to do it D2. Which is extreme WIFOM. Also, what I was talking about was his random vote, which certainly doesn't fit into "has potential for a lynch" or "pushing a wagon" for that matter.

Bloodmoney (regarding 825), don't insert "fuck" or a derivative thereof in between every word.
Jebus wrote:First, it would definitely make me lynchbait if I wasn't killed, giving God two potential agnostic kills, and making Nietzche closer scum (once agnostics disappear, cults become the new pro-town, and are against Nietzche)
Explain the second half of this sentence.

For the record, I don't believe that Jebus is Agnostic (or pro-town, but that doesn't matter).

mykonian wrote:While I agree with X that DGB wants to look like cult leader
I don't think DGB is trying to look like CL. That's Bloodmoney. The way I interpreted DGB's 876 was "So how do you know I'm not cult?" The only way Bloodmoney would know this would be if DGB was God and Bloodmoney was Cult (specifically, Recruit, because DGB expressed surprise at Bloodmoney's knowing this).
mykonian wrote:then I don't understand why he would want to lynch her.
If I thought she was trying to look like CL (which I don't), I would want to lynch her for that too, because that would be avoiding the lynch (as Bloodmoney said in 882).

And mykonian/Bloodmoney, I'd suggest not responding to DGB's questions. Listing tells makes them much easier for the cults to avoid.

Why were you so happy about the hammer?

Here's some motivation for your re-read:

Um, so either he'd be asking for the names of recruits, or giving them?

Alright, he's conscious of how to play as God? Furthermore, he's putting the suspicion on others who haven't lurked (as in the beginning of the game) to be God?
mykonian wrote:I think we can say that someone that has claimed cult till now, can't be god. God would never wifom us that way, as it would make people look at him. He doesn't want to be in the center of the attention.

In short, he has contradicted himself quite a lot, written "If I were God" conditional statements, and reacted to the qwints wagon in an appropriate manner for God.

In other news, people need to stop lurking.

I take a different approach to try to identify people's roles: take what they do, and see how they coincide with their potential objectives. Your way gets you into the mindset of the scum, as you say. Thus I get the picture that you're scum. It's a good alibi, but not necessarily true.

yes, you can read it that way too :)

what I meant was that it could be a good tell, if someone got some votes day 1, and substantially less day 2. This tell is worth nothing if the agnostics are already on the right wagon.

Then replace out. It's not an insult - this is a difficult game to get a hold of for a first timer. It's not normal mafia.

Wait, why does DGB vote Jahudo and then leave the vote on when he says that he's been confusing Jahudo and Jebus?

mykonian is clearly distracting from God-finding.
ortolan wrote:
Zakeri (950) wrote:I do. I've been looking back over the phase change and what happened before it.

It's practically undeniable to me that Jebus is a cult leader based on what happened during phase change, and how Quints reacted towards him not being recruited. I don't think he's either God or a Cult leader because God didn't hit him, and I think he's a Cult Leader because Quintz wouldn't venge-out God just because he was being lynched.

DGB is also very noticable for placing her vote on someone other than who she believed was god. She voted, unvoted, and revoted Jebus while fingering others, even after listing Jebus blatantly as "Not God". It's very likely the DGB is a cult leader and has found Jebus to be another cult leader. It's also very possible if Jebus was Recruited that DGB was in fact the other Cult Leader that Recruited him, thus leading him to join the other cult leader.

I'll have to take another look back to see who's god from all of this, but it might lead to Pacman, who DGB seems to have been distancing.
I have no qualms with either of these conclusions. Funny thing is I still think you're God. God of course knows who his cult leaders are and would be perfectly fine with announcing suspicion of them. Especially in this context where both God and the town are actively trying to avoid lynching cult leaders anyhow (God needs to kill Nietzsche to win, Town needs to kill God to win- either has to happen before we kill a second cult leader or else the other cult wins). Plus it serves your goal of flying under the radar until you can kill Nietzsche very, very well.
I see where this is going. I like it, but you have yet to convince me that Zakeri is more likely than mykonian as God.

mask man, that post did not clarify anything for me whatsoever.

C'mon, make an effort one way or another. Commit to the game and give us a name or two of people who you suspect. That'd be the nicest thing. Being stuck with someone who won't post anything committal is worse than getting another replacement.

Voting only with wagons is counteracted by him starting the qwints wagon. However, other than that, you do have a point. So no, I don't think Jahudo is God.

Odd question. I assume you mean if Nietzsche is killed...God leaves the game. It's impossible to fulfill my win condition at that point. However, it's possible to win after that point by getting recruited - i.e., getting my win condition changed.

Why do you ask? And why me?

Why? I already went into great detail on why Jebus is a cult leader. By extension DGB pushing for his lynch means she is probably of the other cult.
Jebus would have drawn the NK unless he was God or a CL. You can't eliminate the possibility of him being God just by saying that qwints was trying to get him lynched. There wasn't enough time for enough people to switch to a Jebus lynch on D1, and I think qwints knew this. Plus, this claim is now
preventing
us from lynching Jebus...and qwints was trying to ensure that God wouldn't be lynched. I'm really not sure that Jebus is God, but I'm certainly not ready to eliminate the possibility.

hp [leaves], that's not the first time you've done that, is it? It's a good move.

Anyway, if Jebus is telling the truth, we have two shots at God. If he's not, he could still be CL, but I doubt it at this point, 'cause he probably would have claimed CL as ortolan asked. If he's God, well, we lynch him after he fails to use his one-shot kill.

I will ridicule anyone who suggests from this point forward that he is an Agnostic or CR. (I use CR for Cult Recruit, so that CL can be used for Cult Leader.)

So of our two kills (assuming that Jebus is telling the truth), mykonian needs to be one. I'll read the full thread when I get time for the other.

  • Jebus

I could

see DGB doing that to give himself a hard time, but other than that, I don't see anyone moving from the first list to the second. Also, Agnostics have the majority Today. There are (maximum) 3 people per cult plus God. That makes 7. 16 alive means 9 to lynch. So we need unanimity among the non-scum in order to win this. Anything that could end up with a quicklynch would lose the game.

Alright, hp [leaves] and DGB can't be eliminated based on realizing that Jebus was Nietzsche.

No. There are a maximum 4 people per cult plus God. Leader and up to three recruits. They got to recruit on night zero.
You forget that 2 Recruits are dead.

Speaking of which:

X: if you haven't noticed, zwetschenwasser thinks I'm God, so he would be dead. That way I wouldn't die by an agnostic. Also he isn't very nice.

Although what I mean and what you think I meant are totally different...
First, I didn't what?

Next, your reasoning is WIFOM. So what am I missing? And who do you think is God?

Adel wrote:zakeri or Jahudo
This is interesting. Adel proposed Zakeri (now Looker) to be killed, and since D1 Zakeri has been tagged as potentially God. Unless if adel was just recruited last night, this suggests zakeri may not be God.
This is a good point, BUT you forget that Adel might have been playing a gambit.

alvinz95's last post is really scummy. No explanation, just a vote on the top vote-getter.

No, he's a cult leader (probably islamic). The real Nietsche must have figured out he was one and killed Jahudo, his first suspect for God.

Or Jebus is totally God.

Vote Jebus
Come on guys, we need him to full claim.
Read the thread. He fully claimed already, and we have proof of its truth. Now start actually looking for God.

I think that our God is hiding in plain sight...though I could be wrong.
I think we deserve more comments than this after 20 pages of absence. But glad you're back!

SilverPhoenix is incontrovertibly Cult. There is no other logical conclusion to calling someone obvcult and voting them in the same post.

And actually, I do think that Alvin95 is a likely God. Although I thought Double A was not God, I can't believe that PIP is putting in so much effort to find God and is God. At least we got someone on our side!

I think it's really hilarious how everyone who is attempting to find God is being called Cult. If we who are trying to find God are Cult, then what are the Agnostics doing?

So you're seriously saying that DGB is God, killed Adel last night (instead of the claimed Nietzsche), and that she has intentionally played cult so that town won't lynch her?

That's a stretch.

Until there is either a majority of Muslims or Jews, we can prevent them from lynching anyone. That way we can all have a (possible) win condition.

Thanks, ortolan. I still don't see how they figured out that I was CL. Anyway, we can win this thing if we get an Agnostic to hammer DGB, who is probably not CL.

SilverPhoenix wrote:Also, we found about X being CR during Night 4 when I tried recruited you the previous night and failed. This combined with semi-intense protection of zwet during the day made it crystal clear that you were CR.
Dammit. That's actually pretty bad, because I was doing that because it was my honest understanding of what the best agnostic play would be. I wasn't really protecting ZSW because I had recruited him. That was coincidental.

DGB was a fantastic choice. Zakeri and Looker played fairly poorly - I'm amazed they fulfilled their win conditions.

Also, how did you guys figure out that I failed at recruiting so many times?

N0:
Jebus
Yeah, that made me confused for a while.
N1:
ting =)
A player that wouldn't be too obvious. I feel that I got gipped because of MafiaSSK's playstyle.
N2:
Adel
That's right. Adel was an Agnostic throughout her whole tirade against Jebus. Looker screwed me over on this one.
N3:
ZSW
I was pretty confident he hadn't been recruited yet. Then you guys decided to make a huge random wagon on him.
N4:
PIP
Already culted.
N5:
ortolan
Really wish he hadn't actually confirmed that I was CL.
N6:
No Recruit
I didn't want to be a dick, if the Muslims were going to be kind to the Agnostics. That was all in vain, though.

So yeah, nice job SilverPhoenix. You played that really well, and deserved to win. I thought you were possible cult on D2, but I wasn't sure.

Mod, great job. This game should be run again, no matter who runs it. I can't guarantee that I'll be able to be in it, but it's a great idea and was tons of fun.

This had no bearing on the game. We were outnumbered. You should have protected your recruit (zwet) the previous day instead of hiding for no reason. There was no reason to hide from the other cult when they didn't have a clear numerical advantage (and even if they did you're pretty much unavoidably screwed at that point anyway). Also, if you'd actually helped with a display of power at the start of day six we were (more) likely to win. I already had mykonian and Indigo Herron acting like potential Jews.

I was sad that I to tried to appeal to al_kohaulec's emotion when he stated a preference for the more numerous cult, then have him change his mind (when ironically we were in the minority) and vote for the "minority" cult.
Oh...wow. That makes altogether too much sense.
