The Traitors- Boards/FOG Edition

[Prada the Seamstress]

This is interesting. Was posted when we still thought Magda was the chosen victim of killed in plain sight. Hypothesised a mechanic where the traitors had to name someone three times.
My theory was that the traitors had to question someone three times in a row, based on Prada's weird post to Maeve.
Could be a coincidence, but no one else who is still alive has been posited as a likely killer for Maeve other than Prada. Odd that William mentions an oddly similar mechanic for possible Magda kill.

What's odd about what I said?

I could say isn't it odd that I put forward the naming someone 3 times, and you go on to suggest a similar mechanic later.
That I hypothesised how Pat could be indirectly involved in the murder in plain sight and you later posted something very similar.

That strikes me as more odd.

I'd agree here. William had his theory first, it isn't odd that he posted it. It's more like a similar mechanic like post across a number of posts has been used in other games in the past, which is why I think focusing only on ONE post by me I think is tunneling.

[Laura the Lace Mistress]

Morning all. Bad night. With 2 votes now completed, we need to look for patterns.

Without having the time yet to do so, my hunch is that there will be at least 1 traitor to have voted for each of the banished faithfuls, but none to have voted for two (in order to avoid drawing suspicion).

I know that puts me in that bucket, but I think it makes sense as a place to look. They'll have wanted to be sure that a faithful gets banished, they'll also want to hide in the crowd a bit, without being overly obvious.

You said you were going to do a look back. Did you see anyone else who could theoretically have killed Maeve?

[Prada the Seamstress]

Oh and good morning by the way😅

Morning all

Good morning folks

Good morning all.

Morning everyone.
It looks bad for me, I know that. However, if you look back on my posts you will see for those who have been quiet on thread, when they appear and I'm around, I do engage with them. And I tend to ask questions of them too to try get engagement.
Re: the Maeve posts, I felt people were tunneling hard on Betty genie-ing (sp?) for the prize which I didn't think was fair, as I had appeared around the same time. As as had Maeve and was using that as an example.
Someone said last night traitors weren't stupid. I think a post as obvious as 3 questions like that would be too risky for a traitor to make, I wouldn't do it if I were one.
That's all I can say, but if my time is up, my time is up. I just ask that you look for other possibilities, phrases etc because we really can't afford to lose another faithful today.

No I didn't. I keep getting SQL errors and getting frustrated. I'm going to start work now. I'll try again later.

You said you wouldn't do that task as it was too easy and now you say it eas too risky. Make it make sense.
It may well not be you, but I haven't seen anyone else in the frame. I did a look back but possibly not far back enough. I will try to before ten.
If you are not murdered you have ubtil tonight to find an alternative candidate for murdered in plain sight.

[Betty the Beggar]

Just catching up.
Magda murdered in plain sight.
Few questions, why Magda? Will look through her posts later to see who she interacted with.
How did they murder her? I'd have to go back and see who mentions her name in their posts, maybe traitors had to name her 3 times for example

RIP Amy

This is an interesting theory. I'm convinced Magda is a traitor

[Rhoda the Spinster]

Answers sent I think. I know it's too late but can you confirm they went through. I'm not used to this interface so had to make a couple of attempts.
Thanks.

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

This is Prada's post towards Maeve.
It is in the form of three questions. The second question could have been formatted as a statement but wasn't.

We know Maeve was killed so in hindsight this looks hinky.
If there is a better candidate for the kill in plain sight we need to find it

I’m not spamming just using my phone to play and copying my notes over into the reply box doesn’t work properly. 
I’m starting at Day One and looking at any and all Maeve posts, mentions, etc. it’s possible the murder in plain sight task started on Day One not Night One

[McDonald the Farmer]

Ah FFS Jinx 😂

Too easy to do and too obvious. Hence risky. The logic makes sense when you think it through.

Magda was a faithful?

[Prada the Seamstress]

Good morning everyone. At your first breakfast there was no murder to announce, however today it is a very different case. Not all of you have posted this morning, but for poor Amy the Singer, they were unable to. Last night, the Traitors murdered Amy.

Oh by the way, there’s not just one player who isn’t with us this morning. The Traitors were very busy yesterday. They killed poor Magda the Maid, by Murder in Plain Sight.

You don’t need me to tell you that both Amy and Magda were Faithful.

I can also announce that tonight there will be a double banishment! The 2 players with the most votes will be eliminated. If there is a tie between the top 2 players, they will both be eliminated. If there is a tie between 3 or more players there will be a re-vote. If there is a tie between the 2nd & 3rd placed players there will be a re-vote between those two players.

I’ll be back later to give you details on today’s task. I hope you're thirsty for more. In the meantime, feel free to chat amongst yourself. You should have plenty to discuss…..

Faithful confirmed by Lorcan

[Countess Markievicz]

Plenty of action already this morning.

I am hopefully less busy in work today but will be dipping in and out.

[Betty the Beggar]

Magda was a faithful?

Sorry, I meant Prada aka you

[Chris the Carpenter]

We need to get our act together today. I still don't understand why@McDonald the Farmer voted for Boris. We had pages and pages of discussion about the murder in plain sight and that's where most people's votes were going, where did Boris come from?

[Prada the Seamstress]

Plenty of action already this morning.

I am hopefully less busy in work today but will be dipping in and out.

What are your thoughts on the game so far? You voted Rhoda last night? Would you do the same again today?

Thanks for the questions, its nice to feel involved. I am not sure who I will vote for yet, it all depends how today pans out, but my eyes were opened last night. 

From an honest view as a newbie, there is a lot of non stop posting by some individuals, loaded with accusations. Opinions flying left right and centre. A lot of them not measured. 

Therefore it is difficult to follow everything. I dont know if this is a tactic or what but at times it certainly clouds the game. 

For me I am looking closely at who voted who last night and thinking about that.

[McDonald the Farmer]

AI’ve just noticed that Maeve replied to that post from Prada quoting it. That post number is 242.

The post right before it (#No241) was written by……..

Magda The Maid!

Morning all. I'd agree as a fellow newbie that some people seem to post for the sake of it and are pointing fingers left , right and centre making it hard to follow at times but thats the game I suppose!
I haven't had time to look back over old posts (in fact keeping upmwith the new ones is hard enough) but I'll try later in today. The Friar has a few real life errands to run this morning

[McDonald the Farmer]

You mean the Genie Boris? You mention him and he appears? I stated my reasons why I would be voting for him on Day One. Couldn’t vote him then because he was a newbie. My reasons are all there if you want to go back and read the first roundtable. 

I don’t understand why you wouldn’t go back in my previous posts and check me out?

[McDonald the Farmer]

I won a shield yesterday.

[lorcand1990]

Hello again players. Things seem a bit sombre this morning, but keep the chins up.

More bad news though. I regret to inform you that the Traitors have murdered poor Vincent the Artist, as you can see they are not at the breakfast table this morning.

Vincent the Artist is dead, and obviously a Faithful.

I’ll let you digest this information for a moment. Details of today’s challenge to follow very shortly.

Phew so it’s not just me then. I was totally unprepared for the level of posting and the crapness of the forum when it comes to tracking who said what. You’d need to have a giant spreadsheet to track it all. At least now the numbers are smaller so we can filter a bit.

McDonald tried to start a wagon on Boris first night, so think he's just suss on Boris in general.

[McDonald the Farmer]

Farewell, Vincent. 😢

Obvious choice really

[Rhoda the Spinster]

Good morning all.
I was able to try and read back during the night and figured out why it looks to me why Amy had so many posts about being a Faithful.
When somebody quoted her AND when she quoted anybody who quoted her quote, her original post still stands out prominently when I was scrolling through which made it look like they were different posts so apologies for the confusion.
That's not saying I won't vote for her again if I have my suspicions though 😉.
Is there any way of collapsing quotes until you want to read them on this site as it's very difficult to follow otherwise?

Wasn't it just two people that pushed it tho with similar posts or am I wrong?

I read back and I didn't feel like there was much of a mention of faithful from her until them two them it because a topic where propel were quoting each other.

This is the only other interaction with Maeve from a still living player that I can see. It looks a lot more normal than Prada's post in the form of three questions.
Would welcome any insight from others into kill in plain sight.

Did you see how many post were on the thread yesterday? Might have helped if you explained in you vote why you were voting for him.

Does Maeve then reply to Dora? I think that could be part of the task to get someone to reply to you too. If Maeve does reply, is there a post from Magda before or after it?

We know Lorcan made an error saying it was Magda and the fact that Magda’s post (241) was directly before Maeve’s response to Prada (242) fits with the mistaken killing of Magda right now.

[McDonald the Farmer]

Im voting Boris. Would have done so last night but he’s a noob.

@Chris the Carpenter
my post at last nights roundtable. You were active in the thread at the time too as you posted right after this one. 

I didn’t post much at all last night as players complained about me spamming so this one couldn’t have got lost in my noise.

[lorcand1990]

Everyone loves a good quiz, don’t they!?

Lorcan announced the death of Magda right after this. No reply to the post before then. 
I don't see how this post could have triggered either Magda or Maeve death. I can't ascertain a mechanic there. There is a possible mechanic in the Prada post

[Prada the Seamstress]

For me I am looking closely at who voted who last night and thinking about that.

And what are your first thoughts? This is really a post of nothingness. I am not trying to discourage you but you kinda do have to give some thoughts on the game. For example, for me, right now you are really trying to fly below the radar due to the non posting, the throwaway vote and lack of opinion.
Which opinions do you think are not measured? Call it out by replying to it.
You don't have to follow everything, but try pull one or two threads and see how it unravels. What have you got to lose?

[McDonald the Farmer]

I’d be wary quoting prada’s post, Countess 😂

Just make a post without using reply or quote button!

Ah McDonald you wound me
Maybe by people replying I can prove it wasn't me?

[Rhoda the Spinster]

Could everyone at some point today give their thoughts on Maeve's murder in plain sight.

There must have an interaction between Maeve and a traitor to trigger her death OR some code somewhere that pointed to her.

It's the only concrete lead we have towards traitors.

[Donald the Spoofer]

@lorcand1990 just to confirm, we can Google the answers?

I'm stuck on 1

I don’t understand why you wouldn’t go back in my previous posts and check me out?

So first, specifically on me - I really don’t think that’s true - the genie thing. One time I realised that we’d gone from 2 pages to 7 so I started with the most recent posts where there was one about little old me and I replied and then went back to catch up properly. Other than that maybe you could cite some cases?
Second, even if it was true … why would that be significant? If you’re thinking that traitors would be giving each other heads up when they’re getting mentions you’d still have to be checking into see the warning.
third it really isn’t easy to go back and find everything that anyone just said so I think as a courtesy to other voters it’s better to repeat your reasons. especially if we’re trying to persuade each other.
