The Wolf Game - Murder Party - Day 5 - Infiltrators and Nafen win!

Now come on, I wasn’t suggesting we sit here and let them kill us, just exercise caution on day 2. That’s wild hyperbole

Jubbahey, floating painlessly through the ether becomes aware of distant voices gradually increasing in volume… after some time they are clear enough to understand but still resemble a badly tuned valve radio.
_Whispers and garbled shouting mix together to form a backdrop of noise but there are voices that cut through this tense atmosphere and transend all.
But it really all comes down to stereotypical characters that personify the fear and will to live.
Sudden explosions of intense suspicion followed by guilt and regret that what was said could be another nail in their coffin of doubt.
The bickering continues much to the amusement of a wolf, reading with consummate ecstacy the failing attempts to disrobe his mask and coat of many guises.
Jubbahey found after an unconscious amount of time the conversations getting more confused and ever more distant until they became a dust mote of mutterings and vague sentences.
Something was pulling him forward to a shimmering light on a far away horizon…the destination was unknown but felt safe, felt warm and cosy.
The previous existence that was such a strong memory within him was now diminishing and unimportant but there was still a feeling of unfinished business, a nagging feeling, one that told him that a game was being played that would result in many more like him, floating around waiting to be claimed, wrongly convicted and wanting revenge but with no access to a conduit to achieve that.

As Jubbahey receded into the void, he knew he would not be missed, life is cheap and memories are intangible and worthless, but for that to become fact someone would have to remember him in the first place, a bit like faeries I suppose.

See you in a Xenon

This is the voting table so far. Note that votes original for cybercritic are now on Noble who has replaced him.

(#)Targets - Voters

(1)Skyentist - Sane
(2)NobleBrutus - Nafen, Topper
(1)Lysk - BrickWall
(1)Cosmos - Lysk

I’m leaning towards King_Cosmos but am keeping my ear to the ground so this is not final - more justification will be provided when it is.

Same. I dismissed Lysks initial suspicion of Cosmos as there was nothing concrete and his aggressive approach is concerning, but I’m not going to ignore the chance he is right.

We cant verify this number, but it leaves very few players left to claim one way or the other. If Cosmos is not the only roleless player someone needs to speak up now! Otherwise my assumption is that the poll was manipulated and Cosmos is caught in a lie.

Can you share why you were speaking with Arkenbrien? What about? Why did you contact each other?

Why was it pretty clear that he was killed for those reasons? [quote=“Ovog, post:172, topic:5314”]
“Also, you should ask me about OVOG”

What about OVOG?[quote=“TheBrickWall, post:213, topic:5314, full:true”]
When I say “at the moment” I mean that there are too many unknowns for him being a traitor remaining as the only explanation. It is far more likely, in my opinion, that he is simply shielding himself from further scrutiny.

If hes a human, why should he want to shield himself from scrutiny? If he is a human, he has nothing to hide.


I want to also say that only 2 players haven’t given me their role status. Nafen and one other person. Nafen refuses to tell me either way if he has a role or not.

So from this, we have 11 players with roles and 1 person who claimed to be roleless. One person refuses to answer. The other hasn’t answered at all yet. 12/14 responses.

But despite missing 2 peoples information, we can EASILY see that the poll was manipulated. The poll claimed that 4 people were roleless. Why was the poll manipulated? Was it to create plausible deniability for a person who had claimed to be roleless? Was it because Cosmos is a wolf and knew he had put himself in a dangerous position? After all, Cosmos revealed his roleless status something like only 2 hours or less from the start of the game. He would not have had time to consider the fact that everyone in the game would have had a role.

We must now also consider the fact that the wolves are either: A) Lying about having a role or more frighteningly B) The possibility that every wolf player has a role as well.

I think that B is definitely possible, if not probable based on the roles that I am aware of.

I had just messaged cosmos about something similar regarding the roles:

I saw the possibility of a 3rd party raised earlier and that’s a possibility, but there was definitely backlash from it in that first game we played and martin has been very wary of adding one since that game.

I don’t think cosmos has any reason to lie that he has a role but wants to be seen as roleless, especially considering the census we took. As you said lysk he had no one to know so many would have a role, but I find it far more likely that wolves have roles like in previous games instead of giving everyone but the wolves a role. It’s just too easy to single them out if that were the case.

I’m hesitant to vote for cosmos for the sole reasoning that he has no role. That’s a pretty bogus reason in my book.

I just got back to my pc and I’ve been reading and messaging on mobile the last few days so it’s possible I may have missed something. If I have please fill me in, otherwise I don’t think we should lynch someone based on the fact that they are roleless.

@LyskTrevise I just want to clarify, of those 11 players with roles that you’re claiming you specifically spoke with them, and is independent from the poll?

Correction time. Damn this edit rule and we have no one to blame but ourselves @Arkenbrien, @mattk50, @LucasFIN

I’m not saying its a guarantee, but it seems the best path today as far as I’m concerned. Believe me, it would be great to trust that Cosmos is telling the truth. I actually want to trust him. I know him IRL and it would be helpful to be able to cooperate with him. I think that he is the most suspicious person though, and we actually have a reasonable chance that he might be lying. What else could explain the manipulated poll? As far as I know, at the time of the poll, only Enginish and I knew of his roleless status.

I believe that Enginish was killed as a way to cover Cosmo’s ass during this day. Enginish was really the one pushing to see who had roles and who didn’t. He did this specifically to try to catch Cosmos in a lie, as he told me later in the day. As cosmos said, I texted him to try to get him to believe I didn’t suspect him. I think he chose to have Enginish killed because he was the one most likely to continue suspecting him.

My information has absolutely nothing to do with the poll. I’ve had personal contact with all of them, OR they have publicly revealed themselves.

I mean… if it’s just for grammar… and if it’s just after you post it…

I’m still mad about that game, to be honest.

I guess if there’s no vote in the post, but there’s no edit time indicator so a vote could have been edited at any point which is why we have it.

:wink: Owe it all to Matt.

Back to the game:

I’m just putting this out there, but if we have a medic in the game my suggestion for the next night is to dissect Ark to get his alignment if you can. Chances are he was a human but knowing his alignment 100% would help for reviewing his posts. Don’t come forward now though for obvious reasons.

Well, right now I’m working on the assumption that our medic uses their role during the same day. So I hope today they use it on Cosmos, as that would probably tell us more. I do hope though that we can get both, because I really want to know what Ark’s alignment was too.

I’m not really sure what to make of this new info yet, but I have no reason to suspect @NobleBrutus as yet and wouldn’t want him accidentally killed if I happen to not be around at the end of the day. I’m going to follow Lysk’s reasoning for now, but if you’re wrong, there’ll be a reckoning.

The day will end in 16 hours

For those paying attention you’ll notice this is a little later that the advertised 1200UTC time. It’s simply because I will be unavailable until that time tomorrow. I will probably shorten the night to bring us back to the correct time.

No, editing is banned. If you edit a post that means I have to go and inspect every edited version of the post when I’m totalling up votes which is a total pain in the ass. I’ve been very forgiving with this rule so far but if people start editing lots of posts I’m going to have to start handing out warnings for it.

That’s a risk I’m willing to take. I’ve already survived 100% longer than normal, so thats an accomplishment as far as I’m concerned. One thing though to ask yourself, would I take this much risk if I was a wolf?

Having rarely seen you live long enough as it is, let alone as a wolf, it’s kinda hard to tell :stuck_out_tongue:

I don’t want to really want to say any more or change my vote until I’ve heard what @King_Cosmos has to say about the suspicion and the people voting for him. I feel like continuing posting is just making the topic look still active even though what we probably all want is to hear him defend himself. Since it’s getting pretty late here I might have to go to sleep before he posts.

Im heading to sleep now, and i may or may not wake up before the day ends. Although with the slightly long day, its possible i might. I just want to say, i think ive made my arguments as best i can, and i hope everyone here sees the merit and the logic behind my plan. Also, if our medic could please examine the lynch victim today, that would be appreciated.

In case Cosmos is an infiltrator, i hope that most of you will see that i am human, and we can start to organize tonight. Lets wait and see though.
