Regardless of whether it would have affected the Silent One, in this particular case, given the wording of the contract, then IMO, the ModGod would have been entirely justified in modkilling me. And should have.



Should have? Why?

Scenario 4: Get Anthras lynched so the barrier drops a day early.

Swap Hormonal for Anti-Tank. Vig someone in the larger pool of players.


I'm not sure this one's even worth considering because I highly doubt I can get Blend to agree to it.

This is not just unpossible, this is literally impossible.

I do kinda wish you would have sent me a PM asking if I can confirm which contracts I would want. With the divide coming down the way it has, I wouldn't have gone with these two. Anyways. Make do with what you have. Which is not a lot.


Sorry, but I don't have time to babywalk everyone through how to play the game. It was your choice to not make a definitive provisional when you knew that registrations had to occur at the 18h mark. The other choice is I could've decided none of your submissions other than the SCM one were definitive enough and not given you anything. It's not really any different than if you were a guard in a normal game, vaguely discussed guarding a couple different people and then when night rolls around get upset that I picked one. If you want reliable results, you say "I've decided - Tonight Guard Korlat". It's not like this is night 1, you've had time to figure this stuff out.

Scenario 2: RIO Anthras.

Anthras says he's dying the next day. BCS I convince him that it's Okaros. We lynch Okaros, he turns up town. Anthras dies, his contract becomes available and I...what? Take his power? And then do what? Put myself in a group of one? And then I die after two days anyway because I haven't killed anyone. BCS the other scum does manage to kill someone and I somehow correctly guess who, keeping me alive until the shield drops again.

And then what? Get lynched.

Impossible.


re underlined - why wouldn't you pick Anthras on the night he dies from your RIO??!!

Next day drop Hormonal for Anti-Tank. Vig Anthras. Has to be Anthras as vigging Okaros will only leave me as the possibility for SK. Then:

3a: Take Splitter ability (Question for PS: would that go in my 'empty' slot, as vig is completely used up, or would that have to replace RIO?). Put myself and one other, RIO them, take their ability (probably get lynched as soon as the divide comes down).

3b: Don't take Splitter. Pick up another contract to go in the empty slot with vig expired. But what?


Whether or not Anti-Tank Rifle is "used up" or not, it is still a contract that you hold until you relinquish it or swap it via Consume.

But would it not then be an expired contract, after three uses, or am I mis-reading?

Anyway, that scenario's off the table with Blend's vote.

OK, breathe, breathe.

Cancel that provisional lover convo with Anthras.

When we lynch Anthras the barrier will come down immediately, right? As in, night actions can target anyone?

If so, lover connection with Okaros.

RIO Hentos Ilm

Let's have a think.

night 1 of being the SK: No consuming. RIO Okaros.

day 2 of being the SK: Pick up Pyro.

night 2 of being the SK: Consume Okaros, who I've used RIO on. Use Pyro on Korvalain. 1 successful use. Take Cryo off Okaros' corpse.

night 3 of being the SK: No consuming. Cryo someone. Pyro the same person. 2 successful uses.

night 4 of being the SK: Have to consume someone or will die. Haven't killed anyone so will die unless the other scum kills someone and I successfully guess who.


Nope. Doesn't work. I was thinking that maybe I could work a combination of Cryo and Pyro to turn on Pyro's kill ability, but four days is a huge amount of time in a mafia game - and too long for me.

Cancel the RIO on Hentos. How would I explain voting for them?

God, if you can't even see that I really shouldn't be helping you... :D



Just saw this message of yours. I meant two days AFTER killing and consuming Anthras, because I haven't killed anyone else. I'm not that stupid not to pick Anthras on a night that I kill him :D



Ryllandaras, on 13 May 2014 - 05:39 AM, said:

Also, you are not helping me :p



Quote

Ugh, my options don't get any better if I lynch Anthras and bring down the wall. Because of Chrono. I target anyone, they say they've been targetted, and Chrono comes along and reverses the effect. I die because no one dies.

Only if I target someone who's suspected of being scum, I suppose. Then maybe Hentos wouldn't use Chrono to save them. So

RIO Karatallid.



Ryllandaras, on 13 May 2014 - 06:04 AM, said:

Except Karatallid likely gets lynched. So what's the point of that. Gah. Just going in circles.



Ryllandaras, on 13 May 2014 - 06:12 AM, said:

Hormonal is useful for stopping people from targetting me with abilities, I suppose.

New new new provisionals:

Lover with Okaros.

RIO Karatallid

Consume Pran Chole (just in case)

Apologies, but this may change again if I decide not to lynch Anthras after all :p

Well, this is exactly why I wanted to have a lover connection with Okaros, to stop him doing that. My faint hope that the two actions would cancel each other out or who knows what is now gone. I guess a guard is a guard is a guard.
So I can pick up Pyro but can't use it. If Okaros dies, does that cancel the effect on me, or does it remain?



Path-Shaper, on 13 May 2014 - 06:27 PM, said:

If you pick up pyro you can use it to heat yourself. Yes, if Okaros dies the effect goes away.

I can! Even though it's an action? Hmm.

Did you keep night divided even though Anthras died in the day? Also hmm.

Probably no point in picking up Pyro, as I need to kill. So better focus on getting Okaros lynched, and picking up the Anti-Tank.
Relinquish RIO, request Anti-Tank.
If unavailable, then go for Pyro.

Can you put Pyro on the top of this list please. And I would like to relinquish RIO when it is my turn to register. So I'm attempting to pick up two contracts today.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves :D

But I guess switch Anti-Tank with Cryo, if he still has that. Anti is on its final use, yes?



Path-Shaper, on 14 May 2014 - 01:58 PM, said:

Maybe it is and maybe it isn't. You certainly have at least 1 use left. And you will know when it becomes Fulfilled.



Ryllandaras, on 14 May 2014 - 04:38 PM, said:

Hehe, poor town :D
The fact that someone else has Possession is really helping me. As is Korbas' mysterious disappearance. And now someone picks up the no CFs? Seemingly strange decision.



Ryllandaras, on 14 May 2014 - 04:40 PM, said:

And they've dropped the guard. What are they thinking? They could lynch Korbas/Kara and guard me.



Ryllandaras, on 14 May 2014 - 04:42 PM, said:

And the finder contracts are open. What is going on?

Cancel this please.
I want to let Cryo expire with Okaros.



Ryllandaras, on 14 May 2014 - 08:13 PM, said:

After thinking about it, I figure there's no way I can make use of Cryo and Pyro for four consecutive days. Just don't have that kind of time. Plus Cryo has that annoying honesty thing. So better to let it disappear and no one else can freeze me.

Plus there's always the chance that Korv did not try to use Anti-Tank against Hentos, meaning it *might* have a couple of uses left in it.



Ryllandaras, on 14 May 2014 - 08:20 PM, said:

Can the song title be within a sentence, or does it have to have a sentence of its own. I want to use 'Nothing to Hide' by Rebel Souljahz :D

Pyro Ryll

Vig Hentos Ilm

Consume Hentos Ilm


I don't want Chrono so just let it die with Hentos.



Ryllandaras, on 15 May 2014 - 05:13 AM, said:

I am not a popular gentleman.

But I don't know why town is being the way they are. They could easily have covered all bases tonight with the right contracts. It would have taken them just one extra day to win.



Ryllandaras, on 15 May 2014 - 01:57 PM, said:

Now, because you didn't let me know it was fulfilled (you said that I would know), I imagine the vig has another use left. Therefore I would like to


Relinquish Anti-Tank, request Anti-Tank. If unable, second choice is RIO.



Ryllandaras, on 15 May 2014 - 01:58 PM, said:

With whichever of those two i get (if either!) I would like to target Okaros and Consume Okaros.

Also, sorry, don't drop it yet. I want to wait a bit I think.

Indeed, it is not fulfilled.



Ryllandaras, on 15 May 2014 - 02:06 PM, said:

If i keep Pyro, do I have to use a different song title today, or can it be the same one? I'll probably end up relinquishing it in any case.



Path-Shaper, on 15 May 2014 - 02:08 PM, said:

Different or same, it works either way.



Ryllandaras, on 15 May 2014 - 02:14 PM, said:

Ah, I see what's happened here. Karatallid possessed Korbas to learn his role, but because Kara couldn't get on the site both of them ended up not posting.

Only option here is to hope the others can be convinced that only scum would take Possession.



Path-Shaper, on 15 May 2014 - 03:56 PM, said:

Consume found that Hentos died with Chronokinesis, and per your orders you did not swap.

Finally Gnaw is on and starting to FORCE Blend into examining everything around the start of the previous day. Hopefully they are able to stumble backwards into lynching Khell. It does help that Khell is traveling right now. As he can confuse Blend just by posting hi.

Should have? Why?


When you stated that a timer modkill was a possible result of being Possessed, you (IMO) moved the timer from "Rules are 36 hours or whatever" to "this ability lets you time the possessed out at 36 hours resulting in a modkill for non-participation." It became part of the mechanic of that ability and others expected that to happen. *shrug* That's the way I see it. (And, yeah I know I implied differently yesterday. I wanted to stay alive.)



I said that using possession could result in a modkill from inactivity. That was true. I never claimed that when you possessed someone and refused to post that I would treat it as a special case of the inactivity rules and modkill right on 36:01. So, since I never said that, a person using possession (or considering getting it) should assume that the usual rules apply. Or, hell, they could ask me about it.

If someone really wants to kill another player, there were four or five other contracts that could do it much, much more reliably than Possession.

Plus modkill for inactivity has always been at the Moderators discretion. I.e. if the other players in the game have a problem with how the moderator is modding then they can fuck off. Because the mod is seeing the whole package of the game and either in communication with said player or in this case the player was unable to communicate due to something out side of their control thus once again to the players complaining fuck off.

I'm not really that interested in it. Was just a comment provoked by Pran's "why wasn't Korbas modkilled?" in the game thread.


Btw, since it is possible for the possessor to leave the possessed during the day: Was I still possessed at EoD?

Ok. Knowing that EoD/lynch, night, and dawn are instant: would the possessor of a player killed via nonparticipation modkill die with them?



Path-Shaper, on 15 May 2014 - 08:32 PM, said:

You need to have the contract to know that.



Korbas, on 15 May 2014 - 08:38 PM, said:

Another question:

If AntiTank reaches fulfillment by being used for the 3rd time does it automatically expire or does it have to be relinquished first?



Path-Shaper, on 15 May 2014 - 08:48 PM, said:

What does the contract say on the first page? Does it say that it automatically relinquishes when fulfilled? No? Well there you go. :D

I've had the contract. That should be close enough. :wallbash:

And it is true - possessing someone and not posting as them could lead to an inactivity modkill. But it doesn't necessarily mean that modkill would follow precisely at 36:01 since they last posted nor that everyone else on-thread or in PMs should be clamoring at me, insisting upon the modkill right away.




Regardless of whether it would have affected the Silent One, in this particular case, given the wording of the contract, then IMO, the ModGod would have been entirely justified in modkilling me. And should have.



Should have? Why?


When you stated that a timer modkill was a possible result of being Possessed, you (IMO) moved the timer from "Rules are 36 hours or whatever" to "this ability lets you time the possessed out at 36 hours resulting in a modkill for non-participation." It became part of the mechanic of that ability and others expected that to happen. *shrug* That's the way I see it. (And, yeah I know I implied differently yesterday. I wanted to stay alive.)



I said that using possession could result in a modkill from inactivity. That was true. I never claimed that when you possessed someone and refused to post that I would treat it as a special case of the inactivity rules and modkill right on 36:01. So, since I never said that, a person using possession (or considering getting it) should assume that the usual rules apply. Or, hell, they could ask me about it.

If someone really wants to kill another player, there were four or five other contracts that could do it much, much more reliably than Possession.


Plus modkill for inactivity has always been at the Moderators discretion. I.e. if the other players in the game have a problem with how the moderator is modding then they can fuck off. Because the mod is seeing the whole package of the game and either in communication with said player or in this case the player was unable to communicate due to something out side of their control thus once again to the players complaining fuck off.


You know if you need something harsher. :D


I'm not the harsh type (except when I'm angry :wallbash: ), I'm the ignore-it-and-become-less-helpful type :D

Alright, I am out and my weekend starts tonight! I'll be around periodically until end of (my) day tomorrow, but just in case I miss the end of (game) Day again, I'm going to go where I was planning to go since the beginning of the day.

I hope it's not a mistake.


I'm thinking that since this isn't d-day, he's a logical choice. He's either the SK or town. If town, he's playing it stupidly.

Of course, if he's town then I'm looking at you Okaros. :D

I guess part of the problem is that they know only 1 is scum and the rest is town. Rips up all their theories and things they're looking for.

He was, but now that Silencer has essentially solved the game he might be getting worried that the other townies will see reason and go along with it.

Registration done... once again no one grabbed any of the Guard contracts :wallbash:

And Shin has almost completely dropped out of this game... didn't submit a registration order so he is contractless for the second night running.

It's not hard. Tomorrow, if Possession has been used, you get your proof that it is in the hands of Town, no?
And we get another CI (or a possible SK - but again, no need to take the then-proven-Town-by-use-of-a-Contract Possession user's word on it - we can just leave that in case the SK can somehow avoid the AT restriction, and carry on).

I mean seriously. WHAT are you objecting to, here?



He is trying logic. With this crowd???? Fuck me that shit isn't going to work. If logic worked this game would have been over 2 days ago.
