Looks like you done fucked up.
What did you expect from picto?
Thatāsā¦unfortunate.
Im unsure if it is possible for a Witch to be head first round. @Rabla would you mind confirming this for us? If this is the case then we have to consider the possibility that Picto himself is a Witch. If not, well, then its just picto being incompetent and you can assume that we are on the same team. For some reason whenever we are on the same team, Picto manages to fuck everything up.
He said itās possible.
As answered to Karifean
Okay, Okay! So we screwed up this time, but not all victories involve perfect leaps. Weāll have to make up for this blunder in future rounds with a more careful approach. We can still do this!
That being said, is there any discussion that can be done regarding the Alchemistās potential choice for future Head?
So I just had to cool down from that stressful countdown period for a bit with some Tabletop Sim games. My thoughts are still a bit of a mess, as Iām kind of still really happy picto didnāt execute me over his silly suspicion, and kind of rolling my eyes at the fact that he completely ignored my whole point about gathering and evaluating information and just killed went ahead and @EternalMagician. While I did not agree with his strategy whatsoever myself, and he was also one of my own more suspected players, I still wouldāve liked to have some more conversation and exchange of opinions before the kill decision was made. Oh well, hopefully weāll have a less trigger happy Head next round.
ā¦oh god, if the witches decide to kill me on the first night now Iām going to be REAL mad.
Thereās nothing stopping anyone from trying to suggest Family Head candidates, itās just that the Alchemist doesnāt have to listen to you if they donāt want to.
Also, picto asked me this privately in voice chat and told me to answer publicly. How many witches do I think are in this game? Well in my opinion either 2 or 3 are a valid possibility. 1 and 4 would both be ridiculous extremes, while 2 seems a little low and 3 seems a little high, soā¦ eh? Judging by past games (specifically the first game) Iād guess 2, but it could really go either way IMO.
What do you guys think?
Iāve already voiced my opinion on this. 3.
Thatās the most Crimson like number I can think of, and Azzy here is The Crimsonās apprenticeā¦
Iāve been thinking two but youāre right, it could be three.
If there are 4 witches in this game I am quitting right now I swear.
I think there are 2 witches. The first game had two witches running around but the second and third games had 3 witches. The number of players in this game matches with the first.
If there are 4 then they itās game set right now so I doubt youād really need to quit to be honestā¦
Also this game is ridiculously stacked against the human side, unless Iāve misunderstood something. Thereās no investigating or powersāweāre all vanillas except the alchemist and favored heir. I donāt think they would put three witches in.
I swear at this point we are just guessing who the witches are. The only times that a witch can be cornered can be traced back to the Favored Heir, unless Iām misunderstanding something. God help us if the Heir gets killed tonight without anyone knowing.
Our strategy this game is faith, trust, and random guesswork.
This is only the case if you limit yourself to objective, provable facts. Hell thatās why Iām so excited to be playing this game - you canāt just rely on investigations or abilities, you have to actively analyze to get anywhere. Ripping players out of their comfort zone and carefully examining if their response matches up with what a human would say. Keeping the pressure on people who act suspiciously and try to force their ally or allies to subtly come to their defense. See what psychological cues you can pick up on to figure out whoās thinking what. People arenāt perfect actors, far from it, and when put on the spot they often leave traces of their true agenda. Trying to figure that stuff out, to me, is one of the main appeals of these games, and Iām glad this game encourages this kind of play more than regular Mafia does.
Well, Iām glad at least you seem to be having a lot of fun if that counts.
