The Traitors- Boards/FOG Edition

[Dora the Explorer]

Or do you think it's a possibility that Betty is traitor and won the Prize and knows you're good but is linking Vincent to you who could be also traitor? It would be a good move if you are indeed faithful.

Benji could equally be a traitor and Vincent faithful in that scenario though.

Absolutely could be. I was asking Benjis opinion on it and he is obviously gonna claim he is faithful.

[Amy the Singer]

I'm kind of leaning into the idea of banishing one of the people up for murder, on the off chance the traitors picked one of themselves to throw off suspicion. Not sure if this is a good strategy or not?

There's a possibility that more than one traitor is there too. If we banish one traitor from the list we're more likely to assume the rest are faithful.

Kevin being instabanned leaves 4 players in the pool, one of us will be murdered tonight - Amy/Pat/Vincent. Banish one of us tonight leaves one of McDonald from the original list before his prize and two of Amy/Pat/Vincent.

I know I'm faitful, if the other three are too that's 5 faithful gone early doors.

Any quick way of finding out if we still have a non poster among us?

You can select the post count number on the game thread and it will give you the number each person has post and I guess we can cross check it off the game list. There's 24 people after posting so far and one is lorcand so that leaves Kevin who is gone and one other member. I think I'm correct.

[Boris the Fool]

Okay but I just replied to the most recent mention of the kinda weird and out the blue question which came at a stage when we were all just saying hello … or so I thought…
anyway this thread has gone from 2 pages to 7 since I last looked so I’ve a bit of catching up to do . If I was a traitor I’d have been paying closer attention.

 But you’re keeping close enough attention that I didn’t even have to tag you to get a response 😉 

now I’m really out for a bit.

It was one of the first posts I saw when I signed in. Lots of people reply when they weren't tagged.

[Prada the Seamstress]

@Maeve the Madam what are your thoughts? You appeared around the time of the task also? Did you get an alert telling you?

How do you mean "appeared around the time of the task"? No alert. I saw the task and answered it but I was too late as I was trying to figure out how to PM properly.

Using you as an example of the logic that was being used against @Betty the Beggar at the time. I know the thread has now moved on but I was trying to point out Betty entering the task of itself doesn't scream alignment. And there were others, including myself, who did so.

Frank is the non poster.

My vote will go here tonight unless he posts something of substance

Only think I'd say on that is if Frank doesn't vote tonight and tomorrow he will be gone and it be waste of a vote when they be gone anyway? If Frank suddenly votes tonight then it looks dodge.

This will be a mod kill most likely. Tbh, I didnt like the rationale for taking Kevin earlier, the positive was you owning up immediately. Voting for a no poster at this point is lazy at best

@Rhoda the Spinster given it's an off chance, I don't think it's a good option. 
I wish I had @Ina May the Midwife head for figures, but there must be a way of working out the probability here of determining the likelihood of getting a traitor among the 4.

Open to correction here but I think that while many people posted on thread around the time of the competition, Betty was the only one who entered the competition before posting for the first time on the thread. It's an important distinction

No way of working that out I'm afraid since the traitors already know everyone's alignment so it was down to them to make that choice rather than anything mathematical

[Amy the Singer]

I think @Zeena Warrior Princess is a good option for banishment, just 2 posts of nothingness so far.

[William the Grave Robber]

Let's see if Frank getting a mention draws him out. A lot can happen before a mod kill tomorrow. Too many times low posters skate on by.

[Magda the Maid]

I think if the Traitors were going to put one of themselves on trial, they'd be as well off putting two in because finding a Traitor in the 5 could be read as clearing the others.

[William the Grave Robber]

@Rhoda the Spinster
@Chris the Carpenter
@Zeena Warrior Princess
@Countess Markievicz
@Lilly the Millennial

All with 3 posts or less. Be great to get any thoughts from you. 3 posts at this stage is pitiful to say the least, given everyone posted a token hello at the start

[Amy the Singer]

I said that earlier, are you just repeating the theories of others?

[lorcand1990]

Players, welcome back to the Round Table for your first banishment. Make no mistake, everything that is said at this Round Table matters, and will be scrutinised. Because here’s the thing about the Round Table- there’s nowhere to hide. No head of the table, no corners.. I repeat, nowhere to hide.

In a moment you’ll begin discussing the events of the day, sharing theories, trying to connect dots that may or may not exist. Then you’ll need to make a decision. Will it be the right one though? Speak carefully, listen even more carefully. If your heart starts racing… good

Take a breath
Look around the table
And let’s begin

ROUND TABLE DISCUSSION HAS BEGUN

Voting will take place between 8.30 & 9.30pm.

[Weyland the Blacksmith]

This will be a mod kill most likely. Tbh, I didnt like the rationale for taking Kevin earlier, the positive was you owning up immediately. Voting for a no poster at this point is lazy at best

You at the moment

I like Amy so far, McDonald seems sharp and I also like Pat.

I dont particularly like Betty's timeline so could vote there. There's a plausible option she a) didnt win a prize and did what she did to appear villagery (a bit risky) or b) won a different prize she doesnt want us to know about.

Dora came in and made some accusations towards Benjamin being mentioned and skipped over the Betty stuff. Was a post that felt very much like a post that was posted for the sake of it

Laura sits as a possible, 7 posts, substances is low but a new player so will give a slide for today.

Im between yourself, Dora and Betty for tonight tbh

You do understand that Lorcan did first to reply wins the prize? So yes,  i entered the competition first, who wouldnt? Like I said earlier,  if you want to vote me because of the timing of my posts work away but it's a poor reason

[William the Grave Robber]

Who doesn't enjoy a good game of banish and peek.

I would banish...Frank

Reason being, get rid of a non helpful faithful or low lying traitor.

I would peek...Amy

Not that I suspect them of being a traitor. More I'm undecided and would like to scratch that itch.

[Amy the Singer]

Cat amongst the pigeons here - Vincent is unlikely to be murdered, Pat was one of the first ten to get their answers in and could have won a shield that they're not declaring, that's perfectly normal play for a faithful.

That leaves me, I know I'm a faithful but I didn't get answers in this morning so am a likely murder candidate.

If there's at least one traitor in the 5 names from this morning that would leave Vincent, Pat or McDonald and Mac is out of the running for murderl now.

So, if Mac is faithful the traitor would have to be Vinnie and/or Pat. Of course, Mac could be a traitor who won a.prize, or all of us could be faithful. If Betty's prize is real Vincent's reveal will reveal Benji's alignment and Pat could be a failed murder so it potentually puts the traitors on the back foot.

Some pre dinner ramblings.

[Donald the Spoofer]

The Betty alignment prize, I'm leaning towards a genuine prize, if only for the fact that anything that draws attention to oneself on the first day puts you in the firing line, so I think fake winning a prize is more likely to backfire than not.

If a genuine prize I'd lean more likely both as faithful, as odds of a faithful picking two traitors is unlikely. If they were a traitor it would be too suss to pick two traitors, picking one faithful and one traitor could backfire if the alignment is known to differ before a recruitment can take place. Safest option for a traitor is to pick two faithfuls for an alignment check.

I agree with this, I would take Bettys prize win as legit. Now it does depend on if the winner has too reveal on thread what they won, anyone know this? I lf they didnt have to reveal then why bother mentioning it as it just bring attention to you for the rest of the game. I would be of the mindset now to vote ben or vincent tonight, on the off chance they actually are both traitors. 
Then there is the question, would traitors put themselves on the murder list, it is not a great move imo, that list would almost certainly have to be resolved before the end game

[Magda the Maid]

I said that earlier, are you just repeating the theories of others?

I think we're two sides of the same coin. There's consideration of whether there's a Traitor in the 5 on trial. You said there was a possibility of more, and I said that it would make sense to have more than one if you're putting one in and both of us aligned on the same reasoning.

We know for definite that Kevin was a Faithful and we know that with one of you to be murdered that at least one of you, Pat, or Vincent is also Faithful.

We are going to lose a faithful at tomorrow’s murder so even if Frank is a non helpful traitor I think this is a wasted vote, if he doesn’t appear the mod will deal with him after two missed votes.

Quote “I sent my answers at 11.20, then came back and saw I needed to post here.”

11.20 quiz answers submitted
11.26 you posted about Boris’s posts being forced. 
11.33 declares in thread that quiz answers submitted 
11.35 quotes your own 11.26 post saying you obviously meant benji not Boris. 


Why would it be obvious you meant benji not Boris?
why doesn’t your quote above align with what you actually did?

You're getting way too caught up on the timings and reading things into it.I came on, saw the quiz, did it. Read the thread, posted my thoughts, reread what I had missed while typing, spotted I should have been posting on thread to validate the entry.
Thats it, if you want to lynch me over that, fair enough.


Since Benji seems to be getting some heat and I have thoughts on it.... Benji and Vincy are aligned. My opinion is they are most likely both village but if someone had a peek it would be a good starting point, either knock out two wolves or start a village gang

Um, don't you have a peek?!?! What was the outcome then?

I know I'm faitful, if the other three are too that's 5 faithful gone early doors.

It was more in terms of narrowing the pool to banish from tonight, when there isn't much to go on. I don't want to get into whittling through everyone as it might all be faithfuls.

All valid points.
Your reason for me is for lazy voting yes?
Do you think I'm a traitor? Would I enter to win a prize and then use that prize to kill a non posting faithful (that I already knew the alignment of), then post this on thread with my reasons. Then openly state I am thinking of voting another non posting player.

[Boris the Fool]

My 2c - it's impossible to know anything at this stage ... but I'm suspicious of @Betty the Beggar for reasons mentioned by others. It seems as compelling as anything at the moment.
My hunch is that one of the people on the murder list is a Traitor but that's no use now - keep that for later.
After that, I'm finding @Benjamin the Alchemist post weird - he singled me out for an odd and direct early question which seemed like something a traitor might do - shaking things up a bit - but I'm probably more wary of him because of that. Maybe that'd be a bit obvious for a traitor ... drawing attention.
I'll keep an eye here for other ideas before I decide.

[Donald the Spoofer]

Can someone post the players up for murder?

With nothing else really to go on and the chance their are traitors on the list, my mind is on banishing one of them tonight. That list will linger for the rest of the game

What's your actual reason for William?

[Vincent the Artist]

I'm sticking to my guns and will be voting Betty, as described earlier things seem suspicious. In relation to alignment check, I'm not 100% sold, it could be a cover for Benji as a traitor, so traitor helping a traitor out or just two random faithfuls knowing one could be murdered tonight proving their faithful lean and giving them more time in the game.

The other I'm suspicious of is Rhoda, very little involvement and suggesting we banish from within the murder pool hoping to find a traitor, this would only aid the Traitors and so I think its more than just musing. It's not uncommon for wolves/Traitors to hide in low post counts.

All in all who knows, the Traitors could be laughing away while I poke around in the dark. Either way there's no point voting for those of us up for murder, you'll have more info come morning regardless and another banish ahead tomorrow if ye still have suspicions.
