I'm actually leaning towards Keats but molly makes a fair point and I'm not sure I care for another day wasted because we're playing night mafia bingo instead of reading

I still wanna kill Spork who has successfully wasted two days and has not done much since

I do think there's another scum out there, 4 of 20 seems too low.

My guy says it's VooDoo on shwinn, just based on being replacements.

help me understand the "replacements are more likely scum" meta that people seem to have
do people just hate playing scum here? Do we assume that replacements are more likely scum because preserving instead of modkilling the smaller scum team is somehow more important? it seems to me like asking for a replacement is based entirely on whether you actually have the time and energy to play the game, and/or other stuff coming up in your life and is not alignment indicative. at least if I were a mod I would be just as interested in preserving the town team as the scum team because it's unfair to either if one loses just based on like, someone asking for replacement and not finding one. this logic just grinds my gears a bit.

ngl i think voodoo and/or shwinn very much could be scum but it's due to other stuff about their behaviour (shwinn not protecting clo, voodoo being dodgy about their role etc) not because they're replacements, idgaf about that

mollyohreally
on July 18, 2024, 2:20 p.m.

also i still think spork could be scum or 3p aligned, maybe an aux or some other not exactly scum scum aligned role, i feel like people are forgetting that you could easily have 4 scum at 20 players with an aux or a couple 3p (we already know there was at least 1 3P, Yuming)

He could be a 3p but I sincerely doubt he is scum.

Short answer is that scum feel more aligned to their team. So if someone recognizes they won't be able to contribute to the game as scum they are more likely to seek a replacement. Whereas town who realize they won't be able to contribute much are more likely to just coast and go low effort.

And no, it's not 100%. Mods would of course like everyone to be a high effort player who can fully invest in the game.

But if I have 2 players who are both expressing burnout, I'll seek a replacement for the scum first.

You were looking to make a quick buck, but the ghosts around here were making it very clear that they don’t want you around. You don’t know what it is but there are far too many of them and dealing with this many ghosts is far too much like hard work.

You know what? If the ghosts don’t want you here, you are going to leave. You are going to look for a nice simple job that’s still a little in the spotlight. There’s a TV reporter role going in Pittsburgh that you think you will go for. There can definitely be no weirdness doing that job.


Tired Moritz - Dr Peter Venkmann - Scum Aligned Godfather has left New York.

And with that elimination, all Scum have been eliminated and TOWN have won the game. Congratulations.

The ghosts are free to rule New York for all eternity.

quote:

Dr. Peter Venkman

Click to load image...


You are the epitome of sleazy opportunism masquerading as heroism. A so-called scientist, with your charming smirk and insatiable ego, you spend more time hitting on clients than actually doing any ghostbusting. Your utter disregard for scientific protocol and ethical behavior is a shining example of how not to conduct paranormal investigations. Clearly, your main goal is to exploit the supernatural for fame and fortune, all while dragging your more competent colleagues along for the ride. Your manipulative charm and shameless self-promotion are just the kind of traits you'd need to excel in New York.

You are Dr Peter Venkman. SCUM aligned Godfather.

Apathy - You are probably as bad as the ghosts for not caring about the lives of others. If investigated you will appear as TOWN

Cross the Streams - If you and all remaining Ghostbusters decide to ##Crossthestreams with a target, your night kill will bypass all defences, redirects and passive abilities. If you use this ability, you will lose Godfather status for that night.

You are SCUM aligned - You win when SCUM control the vote.

mollyohreally - Library Ghost

Click to load image...


When you found out that you were now a ghost, you were delighted. Now you have the opportunity to finally spend all the time you ever wanted reading through all the books at the New York Public Library.

Only the living just won’t leave you alone to read in peace. It makes you so angry that they are talking in the LIbrary that it makes you angry and makes you show your bad side.

You are Library Ghost, Town Aligned temporary Miller.

Human Form - when reading you kind of look like one of them. But if they keep disturbing you, you will get angry. The first two times you are visited, you will show as Scum if investigated. Afterwards you will be angry, in your full ghost form and investigate as Town.

You are town aligned and win when all threats to town are eliminated

Toalpaz - Tony Scoleri

Click to load image...


It was a stitch up. You have no idea how it happened but you ended up in court for a murder you didn’t commit. Now you find yourself in front of one of the Judges notorious for giving murderers the chair. Well you managed to get yourself back to the mortal world and you are going to show that judge what you can do.

Thankfully the cops never found out about the other 17 murders you did commit, otherwise this could have happened so much earlier.

You are Tony Scoleri, Town aligned Mason

Mason - You have a partner in crime, your Brother, Nunzio Scoleri. You are able to communicate with each other. However you cannot be sure if it was your brother that framed you to the cops and is now working with the Ghostbusters.

You are town aligned and win when all threats to town are eliminated

saladscooper/Shwinnebago - Psychomagnathric Slime

Click to load image...


You thought you had found a nice place under the city where you could simply flow. You were not disturbing anyone and it looks like the humans had made this place specially for you, considering how well you move here.

Only now you have some of those humans coming down here and scooping parts of you up. How incredibly rude. If they are going to treat you this way, how will they treat your other ghostly friends? Well you will do what you can to protect them.

You are the Psychomagnathric Slime, TOWN-aligned Bodyguard.

Slime shield - Once per night you may ##Shield another player to encase them in your lovely goo, protecting them from harm. If that player is attacked, you will dissolve instead. You cannot pick the same target on consecutive nights.

You are town aligned and win when all threats to town are eliminated

Sporkchan - Subway Ghost

Click to load image...


The New York subway is one of the best in the world and you love all the tunnels and trains that go through the stations every day. Even the graffiti on the trains themselves has a certain charm that you just adore.

But these humans don’t appreciate this fine example of mass transit. They complain, they are dirty and some don’t even pay to ride the train.

Well you have had enough and will help rid New York of these Humans so that ghostkind can enjoy the subway in all it’s glory.

You are the Subway Ghost, TOWN-aligned Whisperer.

Sounds from the void - Once per night you can ##Whisper a sentence up to 7 words in length. This will be heard by one of the Ghostbusters randomly and anonymously.

You are town aligned and win when all threats to town are eliminated

Voodoofly - Walter Peck - EPA

Click to load image...


As a tireless Environmental Protection Agency official you have the audacity to question the noble, utterly flawless operations of the Ghostbusters. With your unwavering dedication to public safety, you clearly see the danger in their delightfully harmless, unlicensed nuclear-powered equipment and the oh-so-predictable containment of unpredictable, dangerous entities. Because who wouldn’t want unchecked nuclear reactors and ghost traps in the middle of New York City, right?

Well you are going to shut these Ghostbusters down and will use all the power you can to stop them. You will ensure that the great City of New York is free from this menace.

You are the Walter Peck, TOWN-aligned Empowerer.

Shut it off - Once per night you can choose another player to ##Empower , Ensuring that their role cannot be blocked.

Hated - It seems that some people out there do not appreciate your work. It takes one fewer vote to eliminate you.

You are town aligned and win when all threats to town are eliminated.

sharkmafia - The Keymaster - Louis Tully

Click to load image...


A humble accountant, you make your living by making sure that your clients are paying the least amount of taxes they can. It’s the American way. That was until the fateful night when you were visited by the minions of Gozer and brought into the fold of these supernatural events. You couldn’t be more happy with this because due to being made the Keymaster, you finally get the chance to actually get with a girl for the first time ever.

You are Louis Tully, Town-Aligned Keymaster and lover

Lover - You are in love with the Gatekeeper. Should the gatekeeper be eliminated at any time, you will also eliminate yourself in a fit of despair.

Find your love - As a night action you can ##Ask targeting another player. That player will be privately sent the question “Are you the Gatekeeper?” If that player answers “Yes”, you will form a masonry with them. If they answer “No”, you can use this ability again the next night.

Who brought the dog? - If both you and the Gatekeeper are alive from Night 3, you can perform a ##ritual targeting another player. If this other player is Gozer the Gozerian -AND- the Gatekeeper also performs the ritual on the same night targeting the same player, Gozer will receive additional powers for the remainder of the game.

You are town aligned and win when all threats to town are eliminated

Getting to watch basically the whole game from observer was really informative, and also allowed me to just throw peanuts from the gallery, as it were. Not sure how valuable "game well done" is from what equates to an outside observer, but I thought it was great, with plenty of fun nonsense in the roles(Spork's role was trollfuel in the best possible way)
