Every once in a while, you find yourself tired of being a god and try for a mortal life. If only for a decade or two. The petty schemes of the mortal priests amuse you, and for a while you're content.

This however. You didn't plan for this.

You're an Ascendant of the innocent faction. You have 1 bp. If your bp is lost you get 1 vig.

Well lets pitty the fool who comes against me... Muhahahahahha


All hail Vengeance the god of Vengeance...

I figured you'd apreciate it

Great set up Morgy, the symp guard/healer is a nice touch puts him in two minds about what he wants to do. Although he may just choose to not do anything with it and play it safe.

Vengy is going to be a key man for the innos that BP then Vig is nice. I presume if both killer/SK target him the same night he dies?

Got two low posters in the killers with Ment and Silencer. Although Ment always claims low poster and ends up being the top poster in the game.

Silencer as SK could be a worry - if the killers are looking to kill without giving anything away its normally the low posters first. And that'll be Silencer.

[Peanutbutta]

SK looks weak because he has the finder against him AND he only gets 0.5 kills. That's a tough break.

The symp/guard looks decent but I think you should have it so that the killers have to decide who is going to execute the kill order, that way the symp must risk guarding his own team. Right now, it's basically a free heal, which is another point against the lone SK.

I'd make a few changes. Drop the Paranoid Finder for RI, give the SK a kill every night, drop one scum killer for RI.

[Peanutbutta]

Obdi wasted no time today signalling his masters with a vote each. Of course, now he looks sympish for the errant voting and people familiar with recent games may realize that symps as of late have used votes to try and signal their masters.

Scumminess is fun! In one post I can hopefully start a train on Bargy and look like I'm symping Kesso.

Unlike your bretheren, you have an inclination as to what's hunting you. You know this place, or at least, you have seen it. You've seen what's hunting you and though you're terrified, you also believe that, given time, you can lure it out in the open.

You are the SK finder of the innocents. Every night you can send in the alt of a player to the mods to investigate. The result of your investigation will be serial killer / not serial killer.

Did you specify the length of nights somewhere? I couldn't find it.

Prov:

Find on Eloth
If lynched, Find on Barghast.

4 hours. It's high up in the rule section

Hintoth said:

Fuck it - messed up already. How could I forget Korv mentioned serial killer first when I responded to it.

Another chapter in Hinter's new book "How not to play Mafia" I reckon.

Bollocks! sad.gif

There will always be stuff like that. Just take a deep breath and relax

Obdilain said:

Have I mentioned that you writing JA into the Fener alt and killing him to start the game is great.

The sad thing is, I would have believed it happened if you said it was Q21 instead of JA.

I miss JA, so it had to be his glorious ass on the line

Obdilain said:

bored bored bored bored.

Here is my plan:

I dunno. Shovel Shit and see what happens. Also, I'm bored. Perhaps I shall start quoting Ayn Rynd or w/e her horrible name is.

Your boredom brings me much joy

tonight if i aint on to change my mind

- DiBs have gotten an extension btb, just in case he'll end up needing it.

Hintoth said:

Korv is Obdi, A quick search of the forum shows him using Boldanko instead of Bolkando twice, and no one else has. How this helps me is less certain....

I like hinter already.

You're RI. Enjoy.

I'm an old worn priests?

So how many of me are there?

RI doesn't sound right for a D'ivers so I reckon you're wrong and i'm actually a killer.

Game looks good biggrin.gif

I must find some way to harm you

we dropped the paranoid finder.

As for the SK, he'll always be fighting an uphill battle. In sleet and snow. It is by far more difficult to be a one man faction, yet winning in such a scenario is such a great feeling

[Peanutbutta]

It feels great to win, sure, but I think the goal is to make the game balanced, not imbalance it against one guy and then applaud him/her for beating the odds.

Kind of interesting, too, because you explicitly spelled out the SK and his powers on-thread at the start of the game, but you didn't really say much about the killers other than indicating they are fairly normal.

While you're doing that I don't suppose you could remind everyone the game should be spoiler free?

Just some of the stuff being talked about wouldn't be friendly to people looking in at the game, which isn't how it should be.

And here I was, thinking WTF is Boldanko, lol

oh, btw, GL's opening post reeks of coding.
i'm inclined to make him a night 1 kill.

Vengeance succeeds ^^

Killer communications said:

so, it would seem that Day 1 will expire whilst i'm at work, and since i'm not coming home after work tomorrow (camping with work people), and then working the following day, some complications may arise.

firstly, I'll beg my superwisor to let me post from work tomorrow, so as to avoid being modslain. I may do that Thurs morning as well.

secondly, RE: NKs

for night 1, I'd like to take out GL, for that weird first post, or maybe one of the quieter players.

I'd like to keep Korvalain around for now, in case he is actually our symp.

I'm going to give my blanket approval to any NK target you choose (that part's for you, PS), but i'd urge you not to target Kessobahn right away, because it would look weird in connection to you. it's always good to NK someone you've had no interaction with, just to throw the town off.

so, yeah, that's how we stand. I apologize for not being a very helpful partner, but that's RL for you.
I'll check the thread and my messages in the morning before I head off to work, so if you have any questions, make sure to write them before noon GMT.

Provisional Guard D'riss please

Also Bargy = Mappo? Only person who would be going to varsity around that time.

Pretty well done that

[Path-Shaper]

Hintoth said:

Morning Morgy,

I'm gonna go with Ment's advice at the moment and so provisionally

Kill Galayn Lord

(Do I actually need to bold that?)

Although Anno certainly needs shooting for being a nutjob!

Can you confirm that you received D'riss's post giving me "power of attorney" as it were?

Very well. I've noted this down

[Path-Shaper]

scum

korv
eloth

symp gl

serial killer serc

Two scum out of 4 considering how little has been posted so far is very impressive. Generally I'd say the quality of our players is excellent. I'd just like to see some more actuall playing

Poke Obdi into a rant?
I think that with DoD released and this being a second impromptu game instead of a promised high tmdi one (altho D'reks game was well-prepared and not a M&P interlude) that people really look forward to, a lower pace is to be expected.

[Path-Shaper]

That is true I guess. Still, i'd like them to post more

[Path-Shaper]

Hintoth said:

Unexpected bonus of being scum - you can make up completely bogus cases that are about as watertight as a collander, and hope that inno paranoia kicks in

Making long cases day 1 has gotten me lynched more than once

[Path-Shaper]

If any of you find you have a few min to plot in a lynch scene, that would be apreaciated. I'll be gone for a 5 hour or so window from about 16.00 my time, so I might very well miss the lynch

[Path-Shaper]

Hintoth said:

And we'll have scum, scum, fun 'till my daddy takes the T-Bird away, a hey hey

Bargy lynch looking good so far (but I'll look like a dick if he's our symp)!

Tech question - I believe we are allowed to say "Kill X, unless he's lynched, in which case kill Y" . Could you just confirm this for me please?

Finally, apologies for sending lots of PMs, but I enjoy reading SH after the game and looking at the decision making process of the involved players.

D'riss, if GL does get lynched (although he's a 2 vote outsider atm) I'll leave Korv alone as you suggest and just go for a random guy who has no connection with either of us.

Aye, you can do that, though we generally prefer to get a confimation after nightfall if so, but we do accept it.

And PMs are always appreciated

[Peanutbutta]

I'll take the reigns for a bit but why, for the love of FSM, are you not using MM?

[Path-Shaper]

Obdi speculates he may be on the block... but he's not. I'd also like to mention as an aside that we should be having the killers designate a killer to perform the deed, that ensures Obdi's power is also a potential drawback.

You didn't think leaving the city was such a good idea. Plenty of places to hide out a siege in your opinion. But then, priests rarely ask for your opinion. Most don't even know you exist. A silent guardian, protecting your masters with your life.

You are a symp and a soldier. Every night you may send the name of an alt to the mods. That player will be both healed and guarded.

The killers are D'riss and Eloth

Question:
If I heal/guard one of the killers, the kill will still go through if the other killer is alive and unguarded, right?

Correct

At the moment, I am guessing Eloth and D'riss are going to kill me tonight because I voted for both of them. Wont that be lovely.

Vengy Lord worries his early posts will get him cut off.

Quote

How do you like that. I am accused of being a symp off of only one posts....sigh... Can't get away from it if I try.

then he facepalms that nobody recognizes the Malazan quote from his opening post.

Can you seriously believe that no one didn't recognize that quote...

Hinteroth confirms the kill on Vengy Lord...

Quote

I may be a bit intermittent between now and the deadline as I'm preparing and hosting a dinner party (how very middle class of me!)

So i'd like to confirm the NK on Galayn Lord, unless he gets lynched when we'll go for....Emurlahn, he's a bit clever for my liking devil.gif

So noted.


... and boy won't Vengy be happy...

Quote

Man I hope that I get targetted to night. How ever as I have now became a possible lynch target I expect to be allowed to live through the night....sigh... Oh wait. If the sk thinks that I might be the killers symp then he might in turn target me.... I like that thought.

How much WIFOM can I make in one paragraph.

[Path-Shaper]

OK, I set up MM with the same pw as PS... the timer is set correctly for the first night onward but for the remainder of Day 1 it will need to be calc'd manually.
