Well then I wasn't in such a bad situation, granted I don't know how Taya knew/suspected that I was the murderbot, and I'm not sure if I would've lied to her.
Though, I'm wondering if I wouldn't have died if the mafia hadn't attacked me as well? (unless that cultist barrage was just part of the narration)
Winky, was I the only one you didn't say "murderbot" to in private?
Yeah.
What would you have done if I had told you?
A muderbot+mafia alliance would've been extremely profitable for all parties, but I imagine you guys would've just killed me instead.
you were working with the mafia, through me. I sold access to you, basically.
Haha, I didn't realize I had become rent-a-murderbot.
it didn't last long because of the reveal fiasco, but basically I was desperate for the cult overseer, and I was throwing everything I had at them selling him.

Before I forget, @edcrab thanks so much for running this game, have been looking forward to it since you announced it last year. Hope there'll be another one of some sort.
Spoit I didn't give him your name until after vote close. I told him anon before in order to get him to back down. I knew anon was dying anyway.
Well shit, so you betrayed me first!
Now I don't feel so bad about trying to out and kill you.
He didn't tell us you were murderbot, you did
Oh, seriously?
Okay now I feel bad again.
We were still trying to kill you before that anyway
How hard were you trying?
20+ damage per night trying?
8 special, 5x2 regular, but if he had really killed me, it would have set off my bomb, which was 20 special
Yeah, Langly didn't tell me about you until after I had revealed in thread to get me to attack someone else. Though he told me about The Anonymous and "maybe" Pharezon.
So I would've survived for one night at least! My prospects did not look particularly good, though, since I most likely would've revealed to Taya anyway, or eventually killed Spoit and blew myself up.
Actually, if anyone can sum up the ending that would be nice! I didn't know we were robots until the last narration. Is Primaphoior the domarion's AI? I've never heard of Paleons before this game either. As one, did I really have telekinetic powers?
But seriously...who was attacking/finally killed me? I only had 8hp and was dealt a slow death over several days. I was probably the most unassuming person in the game at the end. Heck I didn't even guard anyone until the last day I was alive (@Ringo I got your back, bro), since I wasn't networked at all.
Sorry for being gone over the weekend, which seems to be when some pretty heady stuff went down. I never really got my mind around it from skimming back through, so I couldn't really guard effectively.
Also...no one listens to Smoove when he says to vote out REG Rysk.
So here is a longish post about the game, which I loved. I had a role that I feel like I'm pretty good at, and my team has a fairly difficult objective, which I found challenging and exciting.
Because Ed threw in the caveat that we could not simply outlast our opponents, but had to target them in some way before they died, we were on a serious countdown to find out who was who. With our first target going down with no contact (Figgy), we couldn't lose out on another one.
So I blasted basically everyone with my spiel, telling everyone the basic truth, but including a lie (that we had hit figgy), so that even if my message went to one of our targets, there was a chance they would try and work with us. Luckily, I stumbled across Egos, who revealed as mafia and promised to at least work with us to find Quicken. He later, after I promised him our guns and Murderbot, got the mafia to agree to us hitting @shabooty with our weakest attack. This turned out to be an excellent decision on their part, because Duna also hit shabooty that night. If we hadn't been given the opportunity to tag him, we would have left the game, the mafia still would have lost booty, and they wouldn't have had access to our guns for the short time that they did (and at least we killed duna for them).
I had an alliance with Winky, which was set up by munkus at the beginning of the game. Basically, I would get winky some targets, or he would think of some, and I would make sure that we hit the same ones. The entire game, I tried to be aware of as many shots being fired as I could, and to coordinate those so that targets who I was not sure about were not getting hit. We used our breach skill on winky's target, to help him get more kills, and it basically was a perfect partnership, until the great reveal disaster.
I met up with @fecklessrogue (after brutally murdering his partner) and @shalmelo , who shared basically the same wc as us, so they were on board with anything we needed done as well.
@Spoit had the same goal as us, but with different targets, so we worked together, and I kept winky from him, but really was looking for the Veteran so that he could complete his goal without needing to kill murderbot. Then Winky made that decision for me.
I worked with @Anialos as well, who is the only reason I completed my objective. I died three times, and he healed me each time and saved me. Thanks Anialos!
Oh shit, so if I had killed Ringo then I wouldn't have had to deal with the Paelons at all?
Man, I should've killed him when I had the chance. Before Munkus died he told me that he had told Infidel to tell the village that murderbot was a good guy, and if Infidel didn't then that he would be a good target to kill. I almost did it, but I decided not to based on the reasoning that I couldn't really tell if Infidel was bad or not just because he didn't want to get lynched like Munkus and Baidol.

No, we hadn't tagged him, because I was convinced that the veteran was a seer based on previous games
no yeah, I was trying to find him and then give him to spoit. they had to hit him first.

I talked to Infidel after he left, and his reasoning was simple: Don't let information like that slip early in the day. He had quit before he would have revealed the info.
@Langly your fucking welcome! I get no credit for setting you up with murderbot? There was a third guy that should have contacted you based on my codeword-phrase.
@Winky I gave you the tools you needed to survive and the advice to last! Why didn't you listen to partner, Murderbot?
@the dumb dumb village that voted me out If I had survived the vote, I was gonna put in contingencies for my death by ordinance to get things soft-networked. With losing the vote like I did, you sold out the real murderbot and kept me from setting up a true network with him at the head.
Between that and voting out Ringo at the end, the village deserved the loss!

I'm just scratching my head on why during all the time Ringo delayed, he didn't send me or Cythraul a PM, or...reveal in thread. Sure, you could argue it wasn't necessary, but dag yo. I'd have swapped my vote in a heartbeat and am sure Cyth would have too if we were contacted.
You and Cyth ignored the voting record.
THE VOTING RECORD
@Anialos you guys made a mistake, it's not a big deal unless you refuse to acknowledge and learn from them.
THANKS EDDY CRABBLES FOR GAME
Yah, we did miss the vote record. Live and learn I guess.

Feckless and Winky should have contacted you after I gave the codephrase. Basically the word "seesaw" but I gave you a useable, specific phrase so it wouldn't look weird or out of place.
Feckless claimed to be able to remove weaknesses entirely. You claimed to be able to make people susceptible to attacks.
It really was the perfect partnership. With weakness, guard removal, and murderbot's double shot, someone was gonna die each night.
My targets for night 2 was going to be roman (for suspicion) and phyphor (for VENGEANCE).

@Edcrab you probably missed this because the game was being run, but I'd like to talk to you sometime about story elements for my next Arcadia game. But no gameplay elements because I'd like you to play.

And an orbital strike, thanks cultists.

Excellent work, especially on the narration. Fun to read no matter how dead and smelly I was at that point.
A++ Would Phall again.
gonna have to hold onto that for a while,
later all. I still have no clue why I signed up for this game, I think I might have been drinking that night.
But seriously...who was attacking/finally killed me? I only had 8hp and was dealt a slow death over several days. I was probably the most unassuming person in the game at the end.

we didn't know who he was. We hit TA and pharezon before we actually knew.
