Pit was standing at the bulletin board in the morning. He gave Palutena an empty smile as the heroes approached. She returned it with a cold stare.
"Nice of you all to show up...well, those who're left, at least. Not looking too good are we? Neither are these chumps behind me."
A portal opened and dumped two bodies on the ground behind Pit. Little Mac was missing his gloves, and Ness was missing his hat. Little Mac looked like he had put up quite a fight. There wasn't a part of his body that wasn't beaten badly.
GGG: Little Mac, Light / Lynchproof / Killed Night 8
Rathji: Ness, Light / Nightskipper / Killed Night 8
Pit flew into the open portal, waving to them as he flew away. The heroes were stunned into silence. Every time they thought they had a handle on things...this happened.
It is now Day 9. With 7 alive, it takes 4 votes on any one player to hammer. It takes 3 votes to deadline lynch.
Okay GGG, I believe you are town now. And that you are only lynch proof. Unbelievable how many times you cheated death and yet you really were just lynch proof. Sorry man, you were right, I was wasting my energy on you.
So HG and Oling should have tracking results for us. Hopefully they have something good. Timbo, hopefully you bucketed someone that can give us info as well. Or perhaps confirm one of the trackers reports. We have a chance for 3 investigation results and that should put us in a good place or at least give us some information.
Puxlut, if you can, could you scan Rathji's death over GGG's? It sounds like the scum tried to take out GGG on a previous night so it seems more likely it was the darkness who took him out. Rathji's death seems like a surprise to me because he used a power twice, I would have thought he was was powerless at this point.
Thank you Mazrim for the fantastic game. I can only imagine the amount of time and effort you put into this. It is very much appreciated. Remember folks, only believe exactly what you want to believe, especially if it doesn't go exactly the way you want it to.

Mazrim - Welcome to Day 8 Twilight. Dead players please do not post.
MOT#2 - Dammit
Mazrim - Sorry it was late. It won't help this part.
Drury18 - I don't get why Squiggs would post about needing to be at the end. That was weird.
MOT#2 - Is stumped. Is okay with being sacrificed to prove Starseed town. If anyone has a save, use it on Starseed.
Oling - Doesn't get Squiggs actions. Simple questions didn't get a straight answer. Didn't care about the town winning, just wanted to survive.
MOT#2 - We all want to be the last person standing. It's the nature of the competition.
Drury18 - That's what pisses me off Oling. He should have answered the question to the best of his ability and help the town.
MOT#2 - Doesn't know what to do and frustrated
Drury18- Oling and HG have powers that can help us get more information. We need them to get us info and stay alive to get the info back to help us.
MOT#2 - Is to the point of giving up. Can't figure people out.
Drury18 - Thinks I'm high up on the scum kill list. The invites are getting worse. Fears for the next one. Groups want me to shut up and give in. Trying to fight them and get the information back to the town to help. If either group is run by scum, I have to be gone soon.
MOT#2 - What does HG have?
Oling - Thinks they have to be. Thinks they wanted Squiggs96 to shoot him but it backfired. Squiggs said he had to go for his nemesis.
MOT#2 - Or they need you to win?
Drury18 - HG copied Oling and got his power. Both can use tonight, get info, get it back to us. Believe both have a tracker power.
Oling - HG has tracker
MOT#2 - Can this help if the scum kill someone and you see them visit?
Oling - Yes
Drury18 - I don't think the scum wants me alive. if I'm last one standing, the town wins. There's no two ways about it.
Puxlut - Isn't sure who to use the extra vote on. It seems like a useless power the whole game
END OF TRANSCRIPT
The Following User Says Thank You to Drury18 For This Useful Post:
One concern we have to worry about now with the 2 deaths is the extra votes.
If Puxlut/Starseed are mafia it's 5-2 right now. A town lynch brings us to 4-2 and a night kill would bring us 3-2 except that Puxlut and Starseed could tie the vote with their extra one.
Similarly, the argument is true for Dissentowner except with the added 'bonus' of his partner very likely being unlynchable today.
So, in that regard we might be in a lynch or lose scenario if either are mafia. If neither are mafia, we should still have one more chance tomorrow with it being 3-2. Logistically I think it makes the most sense to remove one of the extra votes, although this logic only applies if there isn't another double night-kill.
We need to take our time, and we need to hammer with enough time before the deadline in case we come up against a player that needs unanimous votes. We should make our decision the night before real deadline day, or at least the morning before the deadline.
I have suspected everyone here at one point, so I need to take time to go back.
The timbo vote was largely done with the idea that he was on a couple of likely combinations... But it was an 11th hour decision, so I am nowhere near sure.
Okay GGG, I believe you are town now. And that you are only lynch proof. Unbelievable how many times you cheated death and yet you really were just lynch proof. Sorry man, you were right, I was wasting my energy on you.

It was likely poison rather than a bullet. Maybe they wanted to nullify the claimed doctor powers, or they were trying to lend credibility to someone who was designated to do the poison in case they got tracked. They could say that they used their doctor on ggg and that it likely saved him. Then the next day it would be no shock that they wasted the save because they couldn't know about the poison.
The choices are obvious. They had the least heat. It probably came down to you or rathji.
I tried to track Puxlut but I couldn't, so either the power didn't work or I was blocked. I don't think the issue was the power though because the first part where I copied Oling's ability worked fine.
Oling is correct I bucketed starseed however I received nothing as starseed received nothing. I have no question on Olings abilities, his alignment is another matter.
If what HG15 says is true then that is two nights that anomalies came up with Puxlut.
The two nightkills are very disturbing.
I was very busy on the weekend sorry for not posting much but real life issues sprung up.
jebus h cripes! I think I now know why Squiggs96 had to talk like Pica I think the second night kill was a condition. If he did not stay in character or was lynched the scum get an extra night kill.
It totally explains his actions and inability to answer questions.
In answer to ( I think it was GGG's question) about talking like Pika Squiggs posted a picture of a dead pika. He might have been trying to tell us something indirectly.

I'm pretty sure he confirmed what I said, in that he had to talk in character to keep his empowering power.
If that's true I think you're looking at it the wrong way. I think he got the kill from the Eternals and he has to say pika-chu to keep his other power. He has stated he has has his "empower" since day 1 and if he doesn't say pika-chu then he will lose that power.
I said this and he thanked it, then he said this.

I'm curious where you get the poison conclusion. Who is holding it?
No new people have accepted Eternal's invites and they are the ones seemingly handing out death. I looked back and every Eternal invite was death related. Guardians were giving out tracker and watcher and a more varied bag of powers.
Unless Puxlut lied and she didn't have arson, she had a poison and it kicked in. The other thought is perhaps Timbo bucketed Pux the same night she applied the poison and got one himself. Although I'm not sure that's how his bucket works exactly. Not like what HG15 had where he followed (of sorts) and then took a version of Oling's power.
Outside of that, I'm not sure who else would have one. I don't, 98% sure HG15 doesn't, Diss says he keeps getting more save like items then death ones and has not accepted any invites so wouldn't be granted special powers, Oling is a tracker and rejected invites so he doesn't get any special powers.
Kind of leaves you, Puxlut and Timbo as the question marks here.
