really laying it on thick and possibly going to ruffle some feathers.

but if i am nearly lynched i will explode. and i just have to hope there is enough doubt in my masters mind to think i could be duncan asking for people to come forward.

of course as soon as dg reads it he will try to infect me and ruin all my carefully laid plans

As you get up and shower you notice something feels wrong with your hair. It feels as if it's moving in a slow breeze, and the itch, god! the itch. It's almost driving you mad.

You run to the mirror yet you already know what you'll find. Waves of tiny mushrooms dot your scalps, feelers stretch outwards like hair, moving slowly to some unfathomable rhythm. You try to tear one of but the pain is so bad you collapse whimpering on the floor. There's nothing you can do. If only your friend Duncan was here, he wold know how to help.

You've been infected. Rules regarding your new situation are to be found in the roles post. You still have your night action.

So i'm an infected infected finder?

Is it against the rules for me to reveal as infected? Also, if i'm the DG's replacement, do I get the DG powers, or does the DG player take over my alt and I die?

Thanks.

You can do as you like, but remember that the dg kan kill you before duncan can desinfect you.

And you become the dg v2 if he dies at this point.

Odd? Likely to see him lynched at some point

that too. I really hope this game will work out, and perhaps get some of the flair of the older games. The activity of recent games have been depressing

That's because I haven't been playing. You all miss my sexy ass and put in only 60% as a result.

Too bad both you and Venge are in SH. To my mind, there's nothing like some misguided brilliance and the unavoidable cock comparison with Dibs and Venge's dirty mind to get a game rolling Good to see dibs is playing this game, tho, going back on his M&P only principles .

aye, it has felt like I've had to stir things up only to get everyone else to talk the last few games. But this might shape up, there's a lot to talk about and everything is known.

You are Abd-ar-Rahman III. For years you've been the second in command to the greatest general of the Kalif, Barghast. When he decided to give up his wars and his battles, you followed willingly. When he accepted the position as ruler of Ambergris, you followed him knowing that he was wise and experienced and would lead you right, as always. That might've been a mistake. Last night your manservant who'd been in your family's service for more than half a century was killed buying food for your breakfast. Someone slit his throat. Two days ago you were served a dish of king squid, a vile and disgusting food local to Ambergris. You gave it to the dog. A few hours later the poor creature, a friend and companion for nine years, exploded in a shower of tiny purple spores. Fungus spread so fast the room had to be cleansed with fire. Nothing would be better than cleansing the entire city the same way in your humble opinion.

You are a killer. Your partner is Barghast and together you can decide on one player a night to kill. The procedure is standard fare. Enjoy.

At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinkin' I could never live without you by my side;
But then I spent so many nights
Thinkin' how you did me wrong
And I grew strong

And so you're back from outer space
I just walked in to find you here with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I'd've known for just one second you'd back to bother me
Go on now, go walk out the door
Just turn around now
('cause) you're not welcome anymore
Weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did I crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die?


Oh no, not.I. I will survive
Oh as long as I know how to love I know I'll stay alive;
I've got all my life to live,
I've got all my love to give and I'll survive,
I will survive. Hey hey.

Confirmed.

Also, hello Bargy, My name is Bent, and I'll be your second in command on this mission. Please look to your left, where you will see a beautiful sunrise and a glorious

Provisional on Gamelon

(cough)

sorry, I am a bit happy to be scum.

You are James Laconde, an eccentric historian who's theories on the gray caps have largely been dismissed (unfairly) by other historians, the reading public and one unemployed carpenter that took to haunting the sidewalk outside your apartment. For the lastd ecade you've been slowly killing yourself through alcohol, cigarets and late nights exploring the underground world of the gray caps. You have never travelled as far or as deep as Duncan Shriek, but you're still better informed than most.

You are innocent, and a finder of infected. Every night you can pm the alt of the players to the mods. That player will be investigated for infection and the result given back to you.

Would the DG come back as infected, like they would for the cf?

yup, that he would.

Bent rocks. End of message.

Gavin has asked to pull out. I sent a message to twelve asking if he's still interested as he was the first one not to get a spot I think.

This game seemed off to a good start, now no-one is talking. I wanna spam and get high on mushroom peoples but I can't do that by myself!

On the plus side, the new alts are workin' good I thinks!

You are the Doppelganger. The motives of the Gray Caps are alien and incomprehensible. Why they add something like you to the population of Ambergris is a mystery. Duncan Shriek might know, and Samuel Tonsure could probably have told you if he was alive, but in the end nothing of that is relevant. You're not a grey cap, you're a construct. Your missions is clear and holds little room for doubt.

1 hit BP

Night Actions:
Infect -> Infect one player.
Chose Replacement -> decides which infected player will become the new DG if the original DG dies. The DG v.2 has all the powers of the original except for the BP and the Chose Replacement power. If the player chosen as replacement dies and the DG is also killed before he can pick again, the first player infected that is still alive becomes the DG v.2.
Synapse Overload -> The DG can decide to kill any number of infected players
Compulsion -> All infected are compelled to vote for a specific alt. They are allowed to vote for as many players as they want during the day, but they need to have their vote on the chosen target when the day ends. If they fail to do this then the compulsion becomes so severe it tears their minds apart and they die. Example: The DG compells the infected to vote Kalse. The infected can vote on whomever they wish, but when the day ends their vote needs to be on Kalse or they die.

Any number of these powers can be used a night. There are no limits to how many times they can be used, but only once a night.

Before the begining of day 1, the mods draw a random alt to be infected. The DG will be told which alt is his first victim.

The DG comes up as infected upon death.

So wait Morgy.

You spend all this time creating this game, then you give ME the super-evil-powerful role? I will either make this game amazing or it will crash and burn, depending on how day 1 goes.

Obdi Lord said:

And so a question:

1) Will I know if any of my infected are 'cured'?
2) I assume by your rules if I die day 1, Kara becomes the DG?

1) No, you will not.
2) That is correct

It is an honor to serve with you Bent. This is Shinrei.

I will attempt to use my BigBen experience combined with my "how to be completely ignored" Korvalain play from last game.

I've been hoping to play with you for some time, even more so after last game where you cleaned up. <bastard>

And I too am thrilled to be playing killer. MUA HA HA!

So, Shin, what do you think about Game as a provisional? He's pretty active, playing good, searching strongly....Probably a Roleless Inno, so if oyu haver a better pick I am all ears...Just an FYI, I want to find Malaese and KILL HIM, before he alt guesses me. I've vigged him twice in the last 2 games he's played and want to keep my streak going. LOL! Also, I'll be playing differently this game as opposed to the previous ones. Im gonna try to lurk more nad be a lower poster, say bottom 4 or 5.

You know, I already sent a prov to Path Shaper on Gamelon before you showed up...
I was going to try to be a middle of the pack poster - going to try to give my korvalain routine from last game a whirl.

Since I already put in a prov on Gam, you could confirm and make it certain. It's early yet, so we can change later. People tend to think the Gamelon alt is always evil though, so we may want to keep it around. Someone should do a psychological study on which alts people hate. I think Barghast is one of them, unfortunately.

Is Malaese good at alt guessing you? Mentalist spent all last game trying to find you and failed miserably. I have to admit, I haven't been playing long enough to be of much use at alt guessing.

hihihi.. Well i'm off for some hours. good luck

Just got to the "time" link and change the length of day by however many hours the clock is off by. It only works to whole numbers though, so you'll have to do it to the nearest hour. And dont forget to change it back later wink.gif

Yeah I figured it out...


Ok guys the manager is good to go.... However it is running about 20 minutes faster then the game right now. So remember that if we go to end of day...

First he references the infected as mushroom people, then doesn't stop saying mushroom. Any takes on why he's trying to draw the first infection cure? He's being so obvious about it, if he actually were infected and I was the DG, I'd just kill him.

Maybe he's just high, but it does give me a decent idea if we do get infected, just drop one subtle hint on thread to that effect. It might not be considered a killable offense by the DG because he needs as big an army as he can get, but you'd be more likely to draw a cure.

It might be pretty basic, but it's done.

Post #98: I think so, too. If their possible kill on a player might happen anyway (because of SO), they'd be much more likely to kill someone else.

The syntax is only very slightly awkward, so I don't think anyone is gonna think twice about it.

I just realized that the DG is probably hunting furiously for codes, as infecting a member of a pair would be great for him, so be careful (probably more careful than I was...).

Ok, so.... I'm infected, which means I can choose my side.

If I wanted to play for team innocent i'd reveal, I think. It's probably the best move. But playing as the DG looks like great fun, and that's possible if the original DG dies. Plus helping team DG win will be an interesting challenge, given that I don't know who it is. tongue.gif

It's something I can use my infected-finder power for - working out who is on my team and who isn't. Although it can change every night. And infected players might decide to play for team innocent. X.gif

But yeah, i've got no intention of revealing today. And if I work out who the DG is (they should be protecting me slightly, i'd think), I can protect them. But other than that i'll be playing normally - trying to find the scum. Although with a bit more concern for my own safety than usual.

Cheers.

Time for my usual string of bad alt guesses.

Omtose -- Breadmaster (50/50)
Barghast -- Gem
Eloth -- JA
Silanah -- DKT
Karatallid -- bwgan
D'riss -- dibs

So if I'm right, Gem and DiBs are the killers, which is extremely powerful. Gotta make sure I don't get killed off... or infected, BLECH.

Gamelon playing VERY inno. Possibly a symp.

Emurlahn is DEFINITELY grouped up with someone. Nothing really jumps out at me in trying to break it, but the awkward phrasing will hopefully be picked up by D'riss and Barghast for an early exit from the game. (Kind of funny s/he then did it for like 5 more posts to cover it up, before saying something like, "Oh I'll just talk normally now.")

Emurlahn said:

ages since the last game!

I almost was begin to lose hope for this one ever starting.
Imagine the heartache of another week bored in work with no mafia.

interesting set up as well. Straight in with speculation by players.

Wonders i do, where the rp is in this Wast city (perhaps you should change that), and indeed, having not read the books, what rp is appropriate?

Maybe he's grouped with Hood's Path? I noticed Barghast picked up on HP's weird phrasing.

Hood's Path said:

There no need to fear following me in this game it not a malazan based game lol.

Are we meant to log invisible?

Not sure what D'riss is doing. Gunning someone HARD at the beginning of the game will only get you lynched at some point later on.
