    Blood on the Clocktower 2: Electric Boogaloo

    A new thread so the new info will be easily available.

    A familiar feeling has fallen on the town of Ravenswood Bluff. One that was felt not but a few weeks ago. A feeling of murder is in the air. A scream is heard from the town square and you all assemble to find this humble storyteller dead, impaled on the hands of the clocktower. There is an Imp among you. But who?





    I'll go around now and give everyone their roles. Seating position and role were chosen at random by the game I have set up.

    I will post once everyone has been informed and we shall begin.

    All players should now be informed of their roles.

    The town has awoken for the day, which I'll have last until tomorrow evening.

    The Game is On

    Does anyone want to give me a quick primer of the rules? My guess is that the blues need to kill those in red, and those in red can kill blues at night. Anything else?

    The town needs to kill the Imp. The Imp can confer with their team but the Imp is the only one who makes the kill decision.

    Everyone else has some form of power or information, though some may be lying. It's up to you to figure out who.

    Quiet day in the town.

    Is it deliberate that we don't know have the cast breakdown in terms of townfolk, outsiders and bad guys?

    For a 10 player game it should be 7 townies, 0 outsiders, 2 minions and 1 (g)imp.

    If anyone who has info so far could share it (privately, if need be) it would be a good start.

    It seems like nobody has been told anything, so there’s not much to go off. Might as well blink first and just get sharing. Chef, investigator, librarian etc. spill your beans.

    Talking to people publicly or privately.

    Privately is usually better early on so you can trust some people, gather/share info from a select few to try and paint a picture and try to find some discrepancies in shit you've been told.

    Presumably not if the only outsider is the drunk, as they'd have no idea. Oh god, no, not the drunk again.

    Having just had a massive catch up on how to actually play (that site is very good for existing players but the actual basics are oddly hard to find) - can someone fill me in on the significance of seating position? Is it the order of voting or something, or more than that?

    Order of voting is one thing (although we don't follow it here) but more importantly it's for powers.

    e.g. The Chef knows if any evil players sit next to each other, the empath knows if the people he's sitting next to are good/bad etc etc.

    Ah, gotcha, it's just not brilliantly worded in the cheat sheet above.

    Right, we're ready to rumble, albeit with no information, so anything who knows anything is going to have to bleed it out subtly so as not to get rozzered by the imp.

    Does the win condition for the town is to kill the Imp? Or do we need to kill all the bad ones? Unless there is a Scarlet Woman. I guess, then you need to kill both the Imp and her.

    Also, do I understand correctly that if the Saint dies, it is an auto-loss for the town?

    Just the Imp (and Scarlett Woman if there is one), the imp can also pass it to another minion if they execute themself in the night.

    Auto-loss if he's executed during the day.

    The Saints role reads. "If you die by execution, your team loses."

    So what I'm getting so far is Pleb [soft?] claiming to be the librarian.

    Everyone being so guarded makes me think there must be some good info accumulating roles out there. Or maybe it's just Sunday.

    Given that it is Sunday, I'm willing to give til 2pm tomorrow for nominations. If there are none I'll bring the day to a close.

    I find it interesting that you're so quick to try and believe Pepe despite it being a joke.

    I have only claimed a role to one person and it was not Pepe, as I have told you. As such there are only two ways he would know what my possible role was, if he was the washerwoman (but there would be another person who would be flagged as the potential role too) or if he was a spy. Neither situation would see him blowing information publicly so quickly. It is a clear joke.

    I do find it interesting though that you're so quick to believe it and latch onto it but you're not very quick to test it. Wolf much?

    So, I'm still getting to grips with the meta here, but given the chance of there being friendly roles who can gather info as the game progresses is it in the town's favour to forego executing given the odds of hitting a home run from nomination would be 1 in 9 (or 1 in 3 for a bad guy assuming there are 3 of them) against the odds of 2/3 of hitting something else, perhaps useful, perhaps not, perhaps devastating?

    Got to say I don't get the value of a virgin check until much later in the game. At best you lose a townie to confirm a townie [hardly a great trade], and you lose the chance of the virgin being nominated by someone who doesn't die which would be useful info.

    Reading that back, I'm not sure either of the statements makes all that much sense.

    Looking at the various potential roles it seems some require executions to be effective (or more effective) and whilst I still am undecided on the virgin thing, I suppose learning two players are townies is useful in and of itself as it significantly narrows the bad guy field.

    So, apropos of nothing at all I'll nominate Boydy.
