as for the deaths, the only thing that seems obvious is that it's unlikely any important (named) character died.

An alignment CF would still be nice ...

no doubt.


this is starting to remind me of that Christmass mafia special Bent and Bubba ran a few years back, where PS was scum who kept killing and resurrecting people at random times.

If Path-Shaper is playing the part of black company, that is the only orientation we know for sure so far. I am in:

Ah, yes, the "insane mod" game. I think that was a mini. It certainly was fucked up.

Hell, since I'm out of ideas, though I don't expect it to work in a full-scale, pre-planned game:

Vote Path Shaper

[Barghast]

Btw, if this is an insane mod game, do we have to take out Tapper too?

[Mockra]

nah, he's part of the PS collective consciosness.

[D'riss]

I'm here and caught-up. I'm glad we've moved on from confusion to massive clusterfuck with the lack of CFs.

Wow, three NKs? And no CF from any of them...

It almost reads like the Black Company are NPCs? Is that possible?

i would of agreed with you, but i think korabas pretty much outted himself as BC before

You said in your next post that u dont think we should lynch? at all? admittedly we dont know if we hit gold or not, but we cant just do nothing

what would you consider hitting gold? i want to know if anyone received any cf's?

[Tellan]

so... How exactly are we to figure out anything at all when there's no cf? This is a faction game for christ sake. We can't sit around and wait for finders to help us because there in all likelyhood are no finders.

And we're not allowed to reveal so we can't go that route. Bascially, it seems we're meant to lynch people on random and hope we're lucky enough to hit mostly other factions.

[Liosan]

So I am guessing TMDI to be upwards of 9.5+ ?

No CF , unlimited possibilities - Just 2 factions, 2 factions 1 cult, 2 factions 2 cults, 3 factions 1 cult, etc.

So we run this game with that in mind. Mindfuck and stumbling through blindly until something changes. i.e More info from PS.

Heres how I see it. Possibly 1 killer from each faction (with one of those being a vig maybe?) . And WCS and we might need to consider the FM possibility, but I haven't read the book, so I can't know if there is any character that might fit this, so I will keep that as unlikely but possible.

Role distribution probably won't help right now anyway, but if we have 3 kills each night, this will be a very quick game, indeed.

We do have the option of revealing our powers, but if we do that, and there is a cult or 2 lurking about then that wouldn't be smart either.

Nice Job Liz, I haven't been properly paranoid in a mafia game for a while.

[Korbas]

as to those who have said my reaction was odd, i was pumped up, it did come as a surprise that so many people died, which naturally got me excited.

Also...without a CF of any kind how can lynching benefit us? We don't know if we even hit cult or not, and every time we miss the swing is two members down for the faction that was hit (assuming successful recruitment). If that faction was also the target of recruitment, it's a three point swing. With so many NKs...those are some dangerous numbers.

So lets not lynch at all and hope that we get recruited by a cult that might or might not even exist? That is beyond bad.

[Korbas]

who would hiding a cf help the most?

[Omtose]

hitting gold for me would be taking out the dominator, and i assume we would at least hear about that in the scene

[Omtose]

any side that knows all its members.

so either a one man team, or someone with out of thread comms

[Liosan]

I kind of agree with Omtose above - one man team (FM,single killer, paired killer with off thread comms, etc.)

There really isn't a lot of information out there to really make a good guess at who it benefits though. Like I said, role speculation typically doesn't help, especially if there is a cult or 2 looking for a few good men.

[Liosan]

Lurkers!

[Osseric]

Ok... I was not expecting that. I can't remember the last time I was in a game with no CF, and I don't think that has ever happened in a faction game!

People seem to be treating the lynch scene as ambiguous though. I think the question "How" followed by "the Limper" indicates that HP was not part of the Limper's team, so more likely the rebel side. The three NK's are anyone's guess though.

Man, this is bad though. Whether we lynch or not, it seems like we give any recruiters a free hand. I always say "lynch" because it gives information, but now I'm not so sure.

[Ruse]

To those who mentioned my previous comment, I'm not suggesting that we abandon lynching. It just changes the game a bit. Osseric put it well; the whole "we need to lynch to get info" argument goes out the window. I agree that there are some broad conclusions we can arrive at from the scenes, but it's nothing like a full CF. Lynching is just more dangerous and less useful than it usually is.

Only thing that seems suspicious as of now is Korbas's reaction to the night's kills.

[D'riss]

My internet is going wonky right now, so don't know how long I'll have to post.

The plus side to no CF is no Culture hunting a particular faction. The bad side to no CF is we have no fucking clue what is going on so a single faction might have lost 4 players already, and we have no way of knowing.

Korbas' reaction is strange. Explaining that a lot of people dying has you excited is no different than being excited at a lot of people dying. So, redundant.
