Waiting for a counter-claim is pointless. Did you get a specific message that YOU killed Tholen? Did you get confirmation you actually hit Tholen? Do you know how many hit points Tholen had? If none of the above, then any other player can "claim" the same without much repercussion. With the way you're playing right now, the Wizards quite probably fear you enough to start targeting you with everything they have. Better not to be too closely associated with you, hmm?
It is pretty safe to assume that as a duplicate alt Tholen did not possess abilities or attributes that put him beyond my reach or that he had a substantial number of HitP. My claim is that my activity in that phase was an attack. HoodP claims it was a "Dominate." Can you carry out two such wildly different actions at the same time? I contend that the two are mutually exclusive if game is to be at all balanced.
Yes, anyone else can claim to have attacked Tholen. No-one has.
Gee, the Wizards fear me
now? Oh shucks, does that mean that the people who have been attacking me all game
aren't the Wizards? Oh woe is me. Waily waily waily. You get the picture.
How about we take another Wizard down and actually lynch Gait this time.

As for AF: I don't believe they were Dominated. I do believe AF's slip was involuntarily and the info in there was good enough to lynch him.
My guess is, there's an ability that makes PS put the last PM from a given player on thread from that players' alt.
I have doubts about PS posting it from a players alt. I think it a mistake by AF submitting his provisional quickly in the new Day. Only SH or a repeat will tell though.

With regard to these MD5 codes: as a mod, I know we have no issue with the wonkier game mechanics that players all love and expect in TMDI-high games. Yet when such mechanics do show up, we as players try and eliminate them as thoroughly as we can including relying on third party stuff, potentially unbalancing whatever balance of power exists on paper. It's a weird paradox between what we want and what we do. My stance on the issue is that I'd like to satisfy the want and bring what we do in line with this, so that we can keep roles like these in games (see also: Faceless Man) even though being hit by it is a major pain.
So you're saying you don't like the MD5s? Well fine, next time you're modding say something. It's up to Blend to comment in this game and your "as a mod" is not relevant here. I imagine HP will have an opinion on it tomorrow that I'd like to hear.

With regard to possession, it is tricky enough to correctly impersonate someone well enough to fool the thread anyway, so most of the time this will be an additional vote/elaborate find at best.
With the low posters we have it wouldn't be all that tricky. As them targeting me shows they're not put off by little issues like volume or style. Indeed as AP demonstrated it seems to be something of an attraction this game.

Actually I did put in an action but I wouldn't expect you to know that. Gait, how is your health holding up? Not that I really expect an honest answer.
So HP, I'm a Wizard because Domination is a Wizard ability right? So I must be Wizard Leader to have that, right? So I dominated my own Elite Wizard and got him lynched? Doesn't that make me a bit of an idiot? Not only that but to have put in the "slipped" Aparal post about using Elementals I would have to have known that Aparals CF would have been a Wizard faction one. So I knowingly and intentionally got one of my own hung out to dry. Tell me why.
As an aside, I thought I started off as a fake all? You're just jumping for reasons to get rid of me aren't you.
Why are you asking about his health?
Because he wants to attract attention to Gait?
In addition, I also assume that the damage he does (4 HP) is recognizable to some others, so he might also subtly be broadcasting his alignment.
Gait already deservedly has attention on him. I put that in because I've also attacked Gait. He didn't die therefore has more HP than a fake alt. Oh but sorry, Hood says I didn't do anything last night. Here Gait, have those HP back.
Indeed the 4 damage may be recognisable to my faction. However it does depend on people remembering the whole PM or having made the same choices as me. I don't know about you but my original selection sheet was trimmed by PS to leave just what I chose so I can't see the other options any more. Perhaps your eagle-eyed razor-sharp mod-skillz and photographic memory give you that much information. Not me though and not most people I'd wager.
So, Kessobahn is grumpy in the morning. Big surprise there.
I'm off to bed.
