Detectives and Criminals II

Version II: (long live jfk, death to dethy edition)

Simple forum game I am testing for 8 people!

The players are secretly divided between 4 anonymous detectives and 4 criminals. All criminals know identity of the The Mole (who wins as a criminal, but appears as a detective), and all detectives know the identity of The Informant (who wins as a detective, but appears to be a criminal), but nothing else.

A suitcase containing millions of dollars starts the game lying on the ground. 24 hours after the game beings, someone can say they want to grab the suitcase.

When someone has the suitcase, their alignment will be revealed, and they will have 24 hours to pass it to another player whose role is still unknown. When that player recieves the suitcase, their alignment is revealed and they must pass it to someone in 24 hours... etc.

All normal detectives will be revealed as detectives, and normal criminals will be revealed as criminals. However, since The Informant and The Mole are sneaks, the Informant will be revealed as a criminal even though he is sided with the detectives, and The Mole will be revealed as a detective even though he is sided with the criminals.

The detectives win if 3 detectives and the Mole are revealed and the criminals fail to guess the Informant. The criminals win if 3 criminals and the Informant is revealed and the detectives fail to guess the Mole.

The winning team absconds with the suitcase with all the cash inside.

Post below if you would like to play!

My read still has okiedokes as the informant. His deduction process feels artificial to me

I still think it's lelmoo because the detectives have never brought up his name when they threw out their accusations


the reason lelmoo wasn't in their reads is because he was already revealed as a criminal - meaning he cannot be the mole. The detectives were very much focused on figuring out who the mole could be which is why the rest of us, who were unknowns, got their attention.

So the detectives had no real reason to interact with lelmoo, which hinders our reads but it is what it is. If Matt threw away his only information advantage by passing it to the informant immediately, kudos to him.

I- maybe thats the case because I legitimately got the case page FOUR (or five lmao) and they immediately found out I was criminal so my role was outed day 4. If you reread it was only us two, matt and Lumi really playing at that point.

I still believe its okie. Their reasoning doesn't make sense to me either. What have they done to make themselves a criminal and why does he confirm me as non-informant just because Emile didn't think I was. There's chances that he could be wrong too despite being confirmed.

(he isn't in this case. xd)
