TWG CLXXVIII: Danganronpa [Game Thread]

[Byakuya Togami]

Wait I think we have a shot if the acquisitioner took over the other wolf.

[Byakuya Togami]

In any case, strong feeling that Makoto's been acquisitioned. He doesn't post that much, and all of a sudden he's here at the start of the phase making multiple posts? Nah.

I just don't know if he's a wolf.

EXHIBIT A: Two phases ago:

Wherein Leon actively reverses the burden of proof because he has no justification for why he thinks Kyoko is town. He just rebuts with "well... why ISN'T SHE TOWN?"

Again, Leon gives the weak answer "maybe she's just playing into character??????" despite thinking that roleplaying is inherently sketchy. Yeah okay pal.

Wherein he tries to further justify why Kyoko is town because she's roleplaying. (p.s. it's bullshit)

Even Chihiro catches this

Leon turns the tables completely away from Kyoko by baiting everyone into voting for Yasahiro.

Probably not but I still want to nail Kyoko here.

Not ignoring the possibility that she put the doctor in kitb on purpose either...

And then Chihiro blocked Kyoko...

The reason I don't like point 1 is that technically this is very close to mylo potentially (if aqui is a town right now, then they go into a town, and the wolves get their 2 kills, we're down to 5 with only 2 town which might be parity actually...? Idk how it works)

Basically it's at the point where wolves only really need to push for one mislynch potentially to win which is... yikes

Its not guaranteed of course and there's a lot that is out of our control etc but the notion is still there... also hello

Yeah... tbh

Sakura looks like he's been hunting wolves, but his wolf-reads have died and they have been wrong.

This makes zero sense coming from you when you've been doing the same exact shit hombre.

Notice how Leon conveniently ignored Kyoko and then immediately fixed it, but with less strength he does to me and Byakuya. honestly it's just "hey I have to do this so ppl don't call me out on it" kind of thing.

And here, finally, Kyoko gets her lipservice of "I might be wrong!" but then realizes that she kind of has to get this Mondo lynch through so she covers her tracks IMMEDIATELY after saying that.

I will have your head Kyoko.

I just don't know if he's a wolf.

There's also only 24 hours in this phase.

[Sakura Ogami]

The only way town can win here is if Kyoko was acquisitioned last night I think. So, whatever, but I'm going out on my own terms.

[Sakura Ogami]

Actually if we no-lynch here, the acqui and the wolf can kill each other in the night? Not sure how that works but maybe

[Xiz]

Just to confirm, yes there are 24 hours in this phase. It will end 9pm the 26th (my b)

That's really unlikely. I think Kyoko has a unique writing style that's not worth the effort to emulate.

[Byakuya Togami]

I checked Kyoko's D0 and she voted for Junko. There was no interaction between Kyoko and Sayaka, but Sayaka didn't interact much anyway.

I'm hesitant to accept a world where Kyoko is a wolf because if that's true, then the town is probably going to lose.

[Makoto Naegi]

Hey I knew someone would be skeptical of me cause I posted a wall of text after ghosting most of the game.


I'm sure you would have rather I just forgot this game existed huh? Get out of here with that basic shot


Also victory might be close to impossible like Sakura said. It might be just us deciding which antitown faction wins.

unvote .

[Makoto Naegi]

I have to leave again for a long stretch but I'll be back before eod assuming I don't fall asleep from exhaustion

[Makoto Naegi]

No Lynch might be the way to go here

Right now, there are four players remaining. The player pool composition is necessarily either 2 town, 1 acquisitioned town, and 1 wolf; or 3 town and 1 acquisitioned wolf.

We can still win scenario (2) by lynching the acquisitioned wolf, essentially killing two birds with one stone. Scenario (1) is more difficult. In that case, we'd have to deliberately no-lynch (a possibility I don't see addressed in the OP, so not sure if it's valid), then hope for a specific set of night events. We would need the wolf to target the current Acqui (or we'll lose a 1:1:1 or 1:1 tomorrow depending on what powers the the Acqui chose), and if the Acqui survives that (my understanding of order of operations here is that the wolf kill would occur first), they have to possess the wolf.

If we lynch a town player today, we lose. If we lynch an individual wolf or Acqui today, we also lose. In other words, any lynch right now defeats us unless the wolf and the Acqui are the same person.

We can, however, instantly win by lynching a wolf-Acqui. We can survive to the night by no-lynching, but that takes control of the game completely out of our hands and essentially leaves it to (unfavorable) RNG, specifically the two scenarios outlined above.
