Bob Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Please Only Post in Here With Your Given Anonymous Accounts!That means you, Tariq j... --- I'll be posting Day Five's conclusion here. "Well, Malcolm. It's time for you to go." the Captain said. "But, when I go, who will swab the deck and keep the ship clean?" "I think we'll manage." With that, Malcolm fell into the sea, where he was probably eaten by a shark or a sea monster. "Arrr." the Captain said. "It's good that we all made it through the night again. Unfortunately, someone has cleaned out Malcolm's bunk. I'm afraid I couldn't determine his alignment. Good luck today!" Meanwhile... The Caribbean Clipper sailed through the ocean, shadowing the Barracuda. "Well Captain Not-Broadside." the Helmsman said. "We're within striking distance of the enemy vessel." "Keep your distance for now." Not-Broadside said, as he sipped his champagne. "We'll wait for the signal." --- Alive Players: Jack “One Eye” Alden Timothy “The Butcher” Dixon Louisa “The Fierce” Hammond Patrick “Paddy” Triggs Joseph “The Ruthless” Finch Thomas “Lucky” Chapman Henry “The Kraken” Ogden Nigel “The Immortal” Clayton In Davy Jones' Locker: Alexander “The Anchor” Pinkerton - Loyal Pirate (mod-killed, Night One) Jane “One-Eared” Thornton - Loyal Pirate (run through, Night One) Remy “The French” Fontaine - Loyal Pirate (walked the plank, Day Two) Bartholomew “Barty” Brewster - Imperial Soldier (sunk to the depths, Day Three) Geoffrey “The Brave” Holton - Imperial Soldier (eaten by a shark, Day Four) Gordon “Crow’s Nest” Smith - Loyal Pirate (de-feathered, Night Four) Malcolm “Swab’s The Deck” Langley - Unknown (walked the plank, Day Five) --- Rules (Please Read!): 1) Every player has received their own character account.

Thomas Chapman Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Ok, I investigated Louisa Hammond last night and came back with an unsuccessful result, the same as I got from Malcolm. I think this is related if "Unknown" is possible.
Louisa Hammond Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 No night kill. I blocked Joseph. 17 minutes ago, Thomas Chapman said: Ok, I investigated Louisa Hammond last night and came back with an unsuccessful result, the same as I got from Malcolm. I think this is related if "Unknown" is possible. Pat jailed you last night. What the heck is unknown? Interested to see what Nigel saw. I'm thinking Joseph is clear...?
Jack Alden Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 Probably, yes on lynching Thomas. Does unknown imply third party? In which case we should still care about Joseph.
Louisa Hammond Posted March 28, 2019 Posted March 28, 2019 1 minute ago, Jack Alden said: Does unknown imply third party? In which case we should still care about Joseph. Never seen anything like it so maybe?
Nigel Clayton Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 I kept an eye on myself last night. I kept it stuck tight to the crack in me door. Ye know what I saw? The Butcher, Standin outside me door all the night long. It would seem that Malcom was neither for us, nor against us. The worst kind of man. If ye can't pick a rope, stay off the mast.

Henry Ogden Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Just to play Devil's Advocate, I've seen a scenario where the scum could muddy the day's result of an allegiance. In a game as overpowered as this, it's a possibility. As well, Unknown is not third-party per se. Unfortunately, it still leaves a cloud over Joseph's head, in that Malcolm's allegiance was muddied to confuse town about what Joseph's own allegiance is. But no night kill last night. That's a great thing, and may lead us somewhere today!
Patrick Triggs Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 1 hour ago, Thomas Chapman said: Ok, I investigated Louisa Hammond last night and came back with an unsuccessful result Yeah, that was me on advice from Louisa and Jack, in case Malcolm and Joseph weren't the only scum left. 46 minutes ago, Nigel Clayton said: I kept an eye on myself last night. I kept it stuck tight to the crack in me door. Ye know what I saw? The Butcher, Standin outside me door all the night long. That adds up with what Timothy has sent in those little bottles that sometimes appear by my bunk. So Joseph and Malcolm might actually be neither pirate nor soldier? Are you at least allowed to win with us, Joseph? 22 minutes ago, Henry Ogden said: Just to play Devil's Advocate, I've seen a scenario where the scum could muddy the day's result of an allegiance. That's true, yes, So then someone other than Thomas or Joseph, whom we blocked, must have done it? But the lack of night kill is a good start.
Henry Ogden Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Lets wait to see what Joseph says before extrapolating too much. Maybe he can clear it up for us.
Joseph Finch Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 What on God’s blue ocean??? I have... no idea. To my knowledge Malcolm was not a 3rd party, and neither am I. I think Henry is right in that scum have the power to obfuscate someone’s alignment hoping you’ll lynch me today.
Louisa Hammond Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 But how does that work for a dead man? I know he appears to be dead, but maybe he's lynchproof? It says they will not flip.
Henry Ogden Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 I would lean towards the ‘investigator’ today. Scum claimed a tracker, they could claim that too. They were blocked last night, right? That plus no kill is a legit reason to lynch.

If Joseph were lynchproof, then he wouldn't be dead, would he? He's either a third party, or someone messed with the result.
Louisa Hammond Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 Man I was kinda looking forward to Malcolm being scum and chilling today telling each other gg and lynching Joseph. I'm really unsure who I want to lynch.
Joseph Finch Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 1 hour ago, Patrick Triggs said: If Joseph were lynchproof, then he wouldn't be dead, would he? He's either a third party, or someone messed with the result. As far as I know I’m not lynchproof and Malcolm did not tell me he was anything other than another Mason. Someone (scum) messed with the result to put me on the hot seat. What if they were able to do that instead of killing? I still suspect Jack (coughcough GODFATHER coughcough) or Chapman since he was blocked.
Jack Alden Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 A one-shot janitor would explain how scum obscured Malcolm's affiliation. And they would want to do that whether Malcolm was scum or town. The existence of one-shot anything on the scum side would also potentially explain the unaccounted-for block on Thomas on Night 4 (if he is town). Having said that, I don't think we have any evidence of scum using one-shot actions on the other nights. Doesn't mean they didn't happen, only that we don't know about them. If Malcolm was scum: Then we would have 1 - 2 scum left assuming there were 4-5 to start with. One of those would have to be Joseph (Scum #4) because of the masons claim. Is there any scenario under which Malcolm and Joseph are not on the same team? Louisa claims to have blocked Joseph last night, so there must be a Scum #5 to have used the one-shot janitor (or whatever action they may have used to prevent us from knowing his affiliation) Working on the assumptions again of one action per scum team member per night Is there any other action that would allow scum to obscure the affiliation? Scum #5 is then not Thomas because he was jailed by Patrick and therefore could not have executed the any actions Henry and I would then be town (investigated by Thomas who is not scum under this scenario) Neither of us can be godfather because Joseph has to be the godfather under this scenario See below for why I don't think Patrick, Nigel or Timothy are scum This leaves Louisa as Scum #5 Louisa's block is not verifiable irrespective if Joseph is scum or town. We only have her word for it. The only way she is not scum in this scenario is if Joseph or Malcolm were able to apply the obscuration (spell check did not pick this up, so it must be a word) action themselves despite being blocked / lynched. If Malcolm was town: Then we would have 2 - 3 scum left assuming there were 4 - 5 to start with. Then Joseph is not one of those (and I owe him an apology for doubting them about the mason claim) I think this logic also holds if they are third party together, except I don't owe them an apology I still don't think it would be Patrick, Nigel or Timothy for the reasons set out below Which leaves Louisa, Thomas and Henry Most likely Louisa and Thomas, but only because I don't really have a reason to doubt Henry. In either scenario, the common denominator is Louisa. The reasons why I'm confident that Patrick, Nigel and Timothy are town: Timothy - targeting Nigel and Nigel still being alive means he didn't try to kill Nigel. It is also consistent with my understanding of what his role is. Is it public knowledge yet what Timothy's claimed role is? Patrick - for leading the lynch on Barty and setting the trap that caught Geoffrey Nigel - because I investigated him and he helped set the trap that caught Geoffrey 7 hours ago, Louisa Hammond said: Oh, yeah I thought you knew about Tim. Don't worry he's town. But you were happy to block him for three nights in a row. You didn't block him last night, but we did not know for sure until today that he was unlikely to be scum. 6 hours ago, Henry Ogden said: Just to play Devil's Advocate, I've seen a scenario where the scum could muddy the day's result of an allegiance.

Henry Ogden Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 It was a janitor, but this was many moons ago.
Timothy Dixon Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 A Janitor would make a lot of sense. If Malcom is scum. Then there would have to be at least 5 scum since Joesph was blocked last night. Now Thomas said he was allegedly blocked on Night 4. And we know it wasn’t Louisa or Triggs. Last night Louisa claimed to have blocked Joesph and Triggs targeted Thomas. No one else appears to have been blocked tonight other than Thomas and Joesph. So it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch too say that Malcom had the scum blocking ability and targeted Thomas on Night 4. Which would possible leave Joesph as the Godfather. Which would explain why there was no kill last night since he was blocked by Louisa.
Louisa Hammond Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 What if Malcolm wasn't scum and Tom and Jack are the scum who cleaned up Malcolm's quarters so we wouldn't know for a fact that Malcolm was town. If Malcolm is town and we knew, then we would lynch Tom, and then Jack. Either way I say we lynch Tom, and block and jail Joseph and Jack.
Thomas Chapman Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 1 hour ago, Louisa Hammond said: Either way I say we lynch Tom, and block and jail Joseph and Jack. We could also block or jail me and lynch Jack or Joseph, but me things ye wouldn't be for that.
Patrick Triggs Posted March 29, 2019 Posted March 29, 2019 If Malcolm was scum, that means (unless, as Jack pointed out, they were able to janitor Malcolm at the end of the day rather than at night) we have both Joseph and an additional scum. For me, this additional scum could be Jack, Timothy or Louisa but, as Henry points out, having 5 scum out of 15 in the beginning is unbalanced. I don't think Malcolm is scum. For me that means Malcolm (and Joseph) are town or third party, in which case we must cherchez one or two more scum elsewhere. One, if third-party and two if town. Then it's still Jack, Timothy and Louisa, but Thomas comes into it since he is conceivably the blocked scum killer from last night. note to Jack: I am discounting Henry as scum because how vociferously he led the lynch on Geoffrey. note to others: I include Timothy in my lists because, while Nigel did watch him last night, he could have also gone and janitored Malcolm.
