It was a pleasure, barghast. I'm up for some convo's tomorrow as well, the more the merrier. I'll buy it with whoever offers first. Any subsequent ones I'm not sure about yet. Lio, you want to take me up on my offer from earlier today tomorrow?

If you're buying I'll definitely take you up on it :(

I was made unable to be elected, and unable to cast another vote for someone else. I was also unable to speak of this without revealing too much and risking trouble. I had hoped that by the time I got back on, that at least one person had received at least one vote. I figured at the least, the person who hit me with the election block would make sure we had a second choice. If they blocked my choice because they wanted to stop either Hentos or Fanderay from being lynched, and without having to reveal themselves, I can't fault them for their action. I wish they had at least made sure we still elected someone else as mayor, though. Now we're at judge -3.

If I'm elected Judge tomorrow, I'm choosing Hanas, Rashan, and Liosan for lynchees. That wasn't nice, Liosan.

If Mayor, I'll select a judge closest to these choices.

Given you've chosen Liosan as one of your lynch choices, and that I don't have any particular love for your other two, I will make you Judge if I'm elected Mayor. I'd love to see Liosan die, now.

You still can't. Nothing from P-S/Player PMs may reach the thread, whether you received it twenty minutes ago or twenty game days. This is the very last warning, next time it occurs, will be the third time I have to express concern about this issue, it will be through a modkill.

So I'm throwing this out there for those that are interested.

Especially since Lock is now throwing Hanas and Rashan under the bus.

I'm down for any of the following to be elected Mayor since they have at some point been near lynch meat.

Hentos Ilm, Rashan, Hanas, Demelain, Liosan or anyone else that was seriously up for lynch meat. Probably Hentos, Demelain or Liosan as they at least try and make some attempt to participate on thread. I will vote for whoever will elect me Judge and I will target one of either Lock or Grasp and I will leave the other two lynch targets to be decided by those that voted the mayor that elects me judge. The top two players selected by those on the mayor train will be included in the lynch.

Otherwise the tools that elected Lock will do so again and you will let yourself get lynched. Not sure if we can depend on some mysterious action saving our asses again.



@ Grasp or Lock If either of you can prove to me that your lynch attempt on me was a misguded mistake and that you really don't know for sure if we are on the same team then start talking. Either brag or telegram or befriend me or whatever means you have at your disposal and start making your case as to why I shouldn't go all revenge killer on you two.

@Jalan I'm not 100% against your desires I just think my chances are better with trying to get Liosan on my side as we are both clearly on the outs with the rest of the group.

Edit: Damn BUllets. People you need to put your bullets in all your posts. As annoying as it is it still is a source of information for the thread.

Edit: Edit: Is it still night or is it now considered day three?

Lock is ineligible for election this day/night cycle as the result of an ability used on him.
No-one voted for another player than Lock, there is no replacement Mayor.

Tomorrow's Judge will have 3 lynches at their disposal.



You know I had a horrible feeling we should have a vote on someone else but I'd committed and didn't dare jeopardise the election by bringing it up before we were safe. I figured we had enough time left before Day ended to make sure a vote went elsewhere and it wouldn't be an issue, my bad.

There were two effects in force - Day was curtailed and Lock was made ineligible for election. They may have both been from the same ability or they may be separate abilities. Just because they happened together does not mean they were caused by the same thing.

I have resolved day.

Kadagar Fant is dead. It was a Longhorn (Aces) at the Outlaw's Refuge.

It is now night (well, actually movement phase 1). And you guys will have to wait until the morning for me to resolve that hot mess....


Now this is interesting. The Longhorn died in Day so was not the result of a NA against it. It was summoned today (as it is a K series summoning) and presumably sacrificed by its summoner. My speculation therefore runs along the line of thinking the Cattle Thief caused at least one of the observed effects. Something for those in the South and the Corporate Cult to think long and hard on, given that they in partucular want him dead. We have his known location, again Outlaw's Refuge. Perhaps Longhorn are hard to steer1 and so he has three options; abandoning any other Longhorn summoned at site and hide2, travelling via Mud Street in the Night phase, or stay put at Outlaw's through the first movement phase and moving to Mud Street in the second, or stay at Outlaw's through to Day with any other summoned cattle. To anyone that wants you, Cattle Thief, you're swimming in a very small barrel with the only action identifiable around an event that has annoyed a few people being yours. However, the Cattle Thief is described as a limited healer, not to say they don't have a power ability hidden away though. Nothing personal Cattle Thief, just speculating out loud.

Given how Day was curtailed, may I say on thread how annoyed I am - not as annoyed as I would have been had my convo been paid for by me - that was a good number of hours cut short. I'm sure everyone else with one is thinking much the same. Thank you for the convo Denul, it was appreciated. Now given someone has spent on me, I feel the urge to spend on one with someone else, I did offer earlier in the day a convo but no-one took me up on it. Given we're in Night, if you want one say so and I'll do a random draw for the winner.

Judge is now a big power position. 3 lynches will not be nice to cope with in a single go and is going to present one hell of an issue tracing back who has VC objectives potentially served by CFs if/when we get them. I'm inclined towards thinking that the next lynchees need to be the same pair - pin down if it was potentially genuine (self?) defence of them or not - and someone else. I'm not sold on this yet, because I'm aware of how I'm annoyed at Day ending when I thought we were in the clear. I'm inclined to say if we get no lynch tomorrow every faction needs to actively work towards no elections in the future.

More thoughts later, possibly. Certainly more once we have Day start details.

I will have a conversation with you tomorrow. I haven't had any off thread communications this game
And I'm feeling left out.

Although at the moment I only have guy feeling on who.I like dislike from what is said on thread. I would rather select a mayor that didn't have or hasn't had any lover conversations. That way he can only have a good guess as to who is on his faction.

What are you talking about, day was curtailed? We reached the required number of votes, and so day ended. Unfortunately, we failed to remember that this was a Tapper game and so ever contingency should be considered :(

Rashan. Why Rashan as well as the other two? I don't remember much (anything) from them.

Okay, so slight change in layout this time because we have to take into account previous investment, so changes by location:

Mud Street
University 0, 0, 3, 0 - Could be any role.

Judge Wallace's Office
Corporate Cult 6, 2, 1, 5 - Acquisition Agent or Locomindhive

Mormon's House
Corporate Cult 6, 5, 2, 5 - no role can score this without burning through between 1 and 4 cheat pips so I'm inclined to think they won a Wager at Wallace's Office again and the actual investment was 4, 3, 0, 3 which eliminates only the Iron Worker.


Rickety Shack
Aces 8, 8, 8, 8 - Hard call this one, could be Cattle Thief and Card Shark however Cattle Thief is confirmed in the Day phase being on Outlaws. I'd suspect therefore Card Shark and raise the possibility that the Cattle Thief sacrificing the Longhorn gained +3 per suit to the Shack rather than being the source of the election failure.

Dead Dane's Deed
Corporate Cult 3, 6, 3, 0 - Iron Worker

Fleece spring
Aces 4, 2, 0, 0 - Gunslinger, again. Gold focussed role perhaps?

Outlaw's Refuge
Aces 2, 2, 1, 1 - Cattle Thief known to be there during Day so Cattle Thief.


So we have one more location claimed and a few roles who have sat still for two days now.

Big cut-backs in University and LaRua investment and a hike in Corporate Cult spending. Do the South even realise they can win through locations?

PS, if the Rickety Shack is destroyed by having more than 4 players on it, how does that affect the VCs? Currently owning it are the Aces, should it be destroyed there would be no way for the South to take possession, therefore making a location based victory for them impossible, should they actually try to go for it.

Sorry, I picked up the impression that just because you elected someone it didn't make Day instantly over. Seems it is FPP, never have like that system.

So we have two directions we can go with Mayor. We can elect one of the people who have been lynch targets as suggested by Fanderay and go for revenge (attack those who would lynch contributing members instead of low posters or very suspicious individuals);
OR
we could elect a mayor who would carry forward with the policy of trying to lynch these seemingly unlynchable SOBs (myself included in the unlynchable) and move on.



I personally will support a policy of revenge, seeing that Jalan continues to ride my ass for some strange reason, despite me not killing him, merely moving him as was my intention.

I will elect a judge who will take out Jalan along with two other people (thread's choice) who have been pushing for lynches that are a little too personal (recognizing that I have become one of those people thanks to Jalan's loving attention).
