Tough break because Venge's over-the-top reveal lost us this game. D'rek was, in fact, inno, and happened to turn into scum on the last day. Big bummer for the town, but it was at best 50/50 for Lisheo to choose. I just wish he'd waited a bit to vote. I gave you that heal for a reason!

Anthras, can you clarify? If you are attacked, you retalliate by killing your attackers while also dying in the process? This could explain what happened last night. And it only works for attacks?

Korbas, it's too late in this game to just hope people get it right, IMO. Karat helped us get the right lynch yesterday. We don't have much other than quote blocks and reveals to figure out who is the scum.

Atrahal are you saying that you can STEAL abilities in addition to use 2 abilities?

Hmm, I was about to write a post how I didn't agree with all this revealing business, but it looks like whatever healers/guards/vigs we might have were smart enough to claim something else, and Fener's dance brought forth Atrahal's complete bullshit reveal, so I'm happy now.

I will try to explain myself further in a later post, but Atrahal really fumbled the ball on that one. He interpreted Eloth's reveal completely incorrectly, claimed it as his own, and now he's fumbling to recover, which might have had a chance of working if he hadn't claimed the same role name as Eloth.

I'll wait for Eloth to come back to make sure it's not mistaken semantics, but I am now 99% sure that Atrahal is scum.


Look, the ability works the exact same as the RIs basic ability, only you can do it twice. RIs can "take" a night action. I deduced that that meant they could obtain an ability from someone, somehow. ambidexters can "take" 2 night actions, which I assumed thus meant they could obtain 2 NAs from someone (somehow) in a single night. I would agree that they can use 2 NAs in a single night if they have seperate actions (but not 2 of the same action if you only obtained it once), but I would assume this is the same for everybody. what is the point in the killers absorbing powers from their victims if they have to pick? no killer is going to choose to guard someone if it means they cant kill someone that night, so I believe that anyone can use each ability theyve taken once each night, otherwise the system would be utterly pointless for anybody who started with a NA, except for BPs.

Anyway, thats what I believed. now PS has gone and "clarified" and apparently "take" means "perform", not what I thought. I thought "take" was the obtaining of abilities distinct from performing the actions. after all, what on earth would it mean that RIs can "perform a single action each night" as in their PM, which they obviously cant (for starters) cause they dont have any NAs! hence my confusion. Im sure if I had gotten a second ability I probably wouldve asked about this, but since I only have the one I didnt have any confusion to prompt me asking about it.

Sorry about getting bent out of shape by this post. It was a good defense, but you really only referenced what was said on thread. I saw "PS" and a bunch of quotes and assumed the worst. I saw this long-ass post and everybody saying, "well, I guess that makes him PI," and I didn't have time to read it carefully and react in a well-thought-out manner. I should have stuck with you, though, instead of moving to Fener. Just a bad move on my part. Good game.


Heck, I was surprised as you when people came back and said that made me VPI when it clearly contradicts what some people had just said a few moments before... (they were totally just skimming and didn't want to read my whole wall of text :p ). The key was that I was doing it all in reference to PS's clarification (post 899) and the RI pm given to us all at the start and didn't intend for any of it to reflect upon personal conversations with PS.

I know! I totally should have just stuck with you! End game just moves to fast for me. I still think you people need to slow down and think more, especially with all the new information flying out. Even if the fast pace tripped me up, as PB said, it still lost the innos the game in the end. When are you people going to learn?

Thanks Morgy....


Peanut that reveal was good. I had set it up on day one and made sure that it stayed in peoples minds during various parts of the game. :p
How many fucking people do I have to hammer in order to get that across.

Standard of play was very high in general. Don't forget we also started with 2 first time killers :p

There was plenty of good play all around, but my vote for the best player of the match goes to Morg.

Well, hells bells, you did it to me again...whenever I have died it's after I have gone to bed...I deliberately didn't say I was going because, especially in this game, it seemed like an excuse to lynch people...and now I get home from work and I'm deaded again :p . And I missed all the excitement last night...looks as if it was rather fraught!

Excellent game everyone, I had an absolute blast...and D'rek - :p :p . If I had to lose to another scum I'm glad it was another girl! (I haven't been to SH yet...Shin didn't vig me did he? :p )

Who was Sil - Morg? Brilliant two scum spots!...Did I kill you? I can't remember.

You were Fener, yes? I did. I wasn't taking any chances and decided out of Fener, Korbas and Anomandaris, whichever one was lynched I would vig the other 2.
