After the sudden night's onset, the Fog vanishes as quickly as it came and all of the Killers and Survivors reappear, isolated and confused. It looks like another new Trial, on a brand new day. Two vague shapes are missing, however.

One had already vanished the prior night; the other lies in front of a fallen pallet, unmoving but unharmed; the soul has apparently left his body.

PunishedBen has been eliminated! He was...
DANNY JOHNSON, Smirking Analytical
WHAZZUPP????!!?? You are a newspaper reporter, current alias "Jed Olsen," who committed a string of murders in Utah and Pennsylvania before moving to Roseville, your last residence before the Fog took you. Before that, you were a creature of habit, methodically studying your targets, seemingly at random, while relishing in the attention and success your night job lent to your career - almost like a twisted inversion of Peter Parker and Spider-Man.

Eventually, as careful as you were, evidence began to point at "Jed's" involvement in the Ghost Face killings, and you rabbited again. The Fog took you before the police did, and you entered it happily - plenty of new, interesting projects to track in the Trials, and a new story to tell, one day.

Smirking: The typical Ghost Face mask contains hollow black eyes and a soundless, screaming grimace. Your current rubber mask's eyes almost appear bloodshot (without any blood), and a rubber tongue is hanging out of the mouth. WHAZZUPP????!!??

Analytical: You methodically study your target's routines and patterns to properly plan out a good, spectacular death - later. Much later. When this is over. As a night action, you may target a player. Your target's Survivor form will be revealed to you, if successful.

As before, the form shimmers and becomes something new - a fallen policeman.
He was also...
DAVID TAPP, SOLO QUEUE Inquisitive
I'll be honest. Your host doesn't much care for the Saw series. Maybe it says something about his mentality when it comes to the inevitability of death, but the whole "torture yourself this way to certainly die or torture yourself this way to maybe die but certainly cripple yourself mentally" is just abhorrent to him. I'm sure the lore is fascinating when it comes to horror flicks, but I just can't get beyond the cringe-factor of it.

So anyways, you are a younger knockoff of Danny Glover (due to failing to secure the likeness), a police detective who entered the Fog while at Death's door from confronting the Jigsaw killer (after your partner fell prey to a trap involving four shotguns trying and failing to raid Jigsaw's lair.) Your obsession with ferreting out the truth can get you into almost as much trouble as the Jigsaw killer's victims, but you put your sleuthing skills to good use during the current Trials.

Inquisitive: Your cowboy cop attitude is sometimes at odds with your policework, and the more you suspect someone, the closer you get to your own demise. You may DM the host with a night action at a target to find out something about them. The more you wish to learn, the closer you have to get, putting yourselves in harm's way. This night action must specify how close your stakeout must be. ##stakeout 1 <target> will provide you with a trait of your target, at no extra danger to you. ##stakeout 2 <target> provides you with information on how many traits the target has in total, and will inform you if your result has been tampered with in some way (but not in what manner.) You will be noticed doing this. Finally, ##stakeout 3 <target> guarantees a true result on all trait identities, provides a full description of one of them, and tells you what manner of tampering has occurred, if any. This will alert the Kill Your Friends team that you've been snooping about, even if you were targeting a Solo Queue player. If you have been found out, any stakeouts on the Kill Your Friends team will result in your death.
This investigation is compulsory - if you are able to, you must try to make this stakeout. Failure to attempt the action makes you continue to observe your current target at a higher stakeout level, or randomly chooses a target with stakeout 1 if you fail to take the action.

ELIMINATED:
LD1: UltimaterializerX / Ulti (SQ Feline Grace / Inhuman || Inhuman Predator)
KN1: PeaceFrog (SQ Reliant / Neurodivergent || Regenerator Twin Bonded)
?D2: Forceful_Dragon (???)
KN2: PunishedBen (SQ Inquisitive || Smirking Analytical)

Everyone is now in their Day 1 form again.

It is now DAY. On account of Daylight Savings time tomorrow, day actions will be due at 8:00 pm Eastern (still 24 hours from now.) End of day will still be scheduled to occur at 9:00 pm Eastern on Monday (49* hours from now.)

my fun was people engaging with my role and debating the merits of different courses of action instead of, with nobody around, solving the box

we dont even know if FD was town but can operate on that basis.

the town equity was hoping that Id get some reward for killing him. I became untargetable last night, but I knew that in advance. The BP lie was because I WAS FULLY READY TO SPARE SOMEONE IF PEOPLE AGREED, AS I SAID EXPLICITLY, and give scum a reason to be worried about trying to shoot me in that case.

obviously I lied about untargetable so I could draw scum actions but the day did not pan out in a way that I think I actually drew any scum actions so its a wash

Team is probably some combination of
Wallz
Red
JC
Sbell
IGCD

I think Sbell is probably not right now that I'm working through it

Poe out of them

Wallz
JC
IGCD

Jc I think his ability as pinhead was scum or possibly an indy role. So killing JC could be a good route to.

Setting aside your vote on me which I think has very weak reasoning (if it has any lol? I honestly cant remember) but at least youve been consistent about it.

Why did you list 5 players, comment on sbell then remove sbell and red from your initial larger Poe? What has red i bto form your opinion? All I remember is him vaguely claiming miller, not elaborating when asked and saying he thinks Im possibly scum for lacking my usual smug shittiness or something. Hes shown a bit of aggressive attitude which I remember people saying is indicative of town red, but hes also a good enough player to fake it, so your initial inclusion of red here then leaving him off the three player list strikes me as odd when I havent seen enough to reach a conclusion.

I have slightly leaned town on you sultan but I suck at reading you.

Sultan and wallz theater up there. killm both.

jc... I dunno, the games already experimental enough, being a petty bitch (meant in the most loving of ways) has zero town equity going for it and you know this.... I do not want to believe you are town because it's just not ok and your reasoning is just, uggg.

wrapping jc Sultan and wallz together is something i definitely do t have the energy for though. unfortunately both Ben and peaf are dead and I could probably rely on them to make it make sense. FD would also probably make it make sense.

Sultan, JC, Wallz. 1 of you is guaranteed scum. Please state the case for the one that is and the one that isn't (other than yourself)

The more I think about JC's role, the more I think it's scum. He gets a reward for killing (lies about this to town), the punishment for sparing is telling the spared player his identity, which sounds like a specific drawback for scum. He tried to get out ahead of it by claiming before the chain hunt started. IIRC there was no mention of the chain hunt ending the day early when it resolved.

JC did you know that killing FD there would end the day? I asked you a question about what would happen if we lynched you after someone picked up the box, and you conveniently chose to not answer that question.

Hiding the flip as well seems like a scummy role interaction as well. I imagine how the role is designed is that everything was anonymous, and JC could have chosen to not out himself at all, but wanted to try and use it as a confirmation tool. But I obviously can't be too sure on this.

I did think FD was scum yesterday, but for MYLO/LYLO counting purposes, we have to assume he was town and offered himself up because of the supposed poison, so I think it will just be safe to assume FD was town, and he was going to die anyway, so we can at least take that as a silver lining that we maybe "wasted" scum's extra kill. If that is true about the poison though, then that does point to JC being town? Because he wouldn't take the bad press of killing FD there if he knew for sure FD was already going to die? Unless he really wanted that Untargettable I guess.

I dunno, I feel like I'm only gonna talk myself in circles here. Ben was another confirmed town on the Ashethan lynch D1. Chang is coming in hot saying IGCD is scum. Should probably go for one of those two today.

I'll also add I almost mod killed myself day 2 because I was starting to catch up and decided just to check the state of the game and found out day 2 was over. I then ended up not even bothering to finish catching up. People looking to lynch me simply because I'm not active are just being opportunistic. Considering Sultan is one of them and the person that replaced Crescent is also one of them, I feel pretty good about my scum reads on them from day 1.

ulti's lynch was almost assuredly not clean though which means i'd estimate 1-2 of death, IGCD, brohan, wallz ought to be scum. and if that's the POE everyone else should have me in it too because Crescent's day 1 was pretty horrid

If I were to pick two people pairing themselves up... Chang and IGCD are accusing each other of being scum. A gladiate could be pretty beneficial to sort things out with them, yes? Unless neither is scum, which is a possibility, and probably why I wouldn't actually go with that.

I'd go with Dumey, who looked really sus yesterday (plus his post today) and something just seems... off about him, and Brohan, who needs to fucking post more.

I'll be honest, I have lost my drive for this game. I'm so far behind and have no idea what's going on. Missing the majority of day 1 killed me.
You and me both. I replaced in to an awkward spot - people think I'm scum for actions that weren't my own - and the box twist was just one of those momentum-killers. Reality shows throw in dumb twists like that to "spice things up" and those, in fact, serve the opposite purpose nearly every time.

It seems like most of the game feels this sense of deflation tbh. Which is why I gotta force myself to be more active and try to solve the game so people realize that I am town.

I fail to see what FD did that ruined your fun, JC.
All I see is a selfishly concocted reason to pull the trigger and thats a best case scenario.

I will agree with you that its time lesser actives like Corrik stepped up
(I was going to say IGCD as well, since I noticed he never even posted day2, but he's already becoming more active despite his apparent lack of interest)

Also to answer Edumey's day2 question (which I almost posted to get myself modkilled yesterday)
I was going to say my suspicions were focused on Brohan, Sbell, Ben, IGCD and also that maybe we should just resolve Ashethan (until he claimed and Red backed him up)
Bens flip is making me re-evaluate things now.. Considering his early town confirms of Sbell and IGCD, I am starting to worry again about Sultan or anyone else who resisted those confirms hard.
Then again I still dont fully trust Sbell either.
