Silchas/Ampelas Conversation:

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 02:34 AM, said:

Howdy

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:44 AM, said:

Hey

So this my game-breaking ability

Anyway, do you know who Thyrllan targeted last night? If not can you get the info from him without telling him of this ability of mine? There's still chances that Sorcerer can recruit from dead so the less deadnotdead people know about this the better

Also any thoughts on who's the Sorcerer from you and Thur are appreciated

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:48 AM, said:

Even if you wanted to say/ask/accuse/whatever something/someone on thread just write it here, I'll post it as mine. You can basically play as if you were alive, try to encourage Thyr to do the same if possible without giving it away

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:50 AM, said:

Well I guess it wouldn't be such tragedy if scum found out what my ability is, it's basically written in any dictionary...
So yeah I might even just tell them and let you and Thur post stuff as you just from my account(I'm not talking about giving them access to my account or anything PS)

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:53 AM, said:

I like to think that scum fears my terrible abilities and it's their main goal to rid themselves off me but judging by their last kill choice they apparently pay some attention to the game too

PS can Ampelas post quotes from this convo over in purgatory?

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:55 AM, said:

Anyway your thoughts on keeping it secret/revealing it? I'm leaning towards revealing

Yes, you can refer to this conversation in the main thread and Ampelas can do so in purgatory.

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:13 PM, said:

Ok, I was thinking the same thing you were on getting the guards. Why didn't you contact thr though?

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:21 PM, said:

Oh this was an NA for you wasn't it from time stamps.

He guarded Denul night 1, night 2 osseric, and night 3 Jalan.

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:28 PM, said:

So the sorceror has to be galain, nimander or Merrid. Probably not Galain since he got kilava's stupid post 27.

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:30 PM, said:

Nice, yeah I'm just gonna reveal it on thread

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:31 PM, said:

And Merrid is supposed to be the eager vig which fits well enough for now

Nimander it is then most likely

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:32 PM, said:

Unless there's different scum doing recruiting and killing and one of them is Jalan while the other one is Osserc I guess

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:34 PM, said:

Nah, I think it's an alternate between killing and recruiting.

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:34 PM, said:

And yeah it is a NA and I can theoretically target people who die at the same night but "if someone who is roled dies at night contact them" was too vague for PS

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:35 PM, said:

Merrid could still be his minion. Starting the game with only one such would hard

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:37 PM, said:

Agree, that's why I said it fits for now

[Path-Shaper]

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:39 PM, said:

Hmm, maybe I should wait with revealing it for a while to see what people do in case there is such a minion

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:46 PM, said:

And if you get killed? In post 448 Merrid suggests 2 such in the game so 50/50 chance of hitting scum.

I think you can get galain, kilava's and osseric onboard for a nimander lynch. Galain is already leaning that way.

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:49 PM, said:

Pretty sure Merriam stated that Nimander seems too obvious to be the Sorcerer at some point, then there was also the vote for Thyr and his hammer

If I wait I'll probably have wait till Monday/Tuesday, I don't want to post much before I reveal it so that potential minions don't think I'm onto something and decide to ditch their master

Also it's Nom here

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:49 PM, said:

I bet Merrid got the day 1 kill to add an extra body to purgatory for the recruit ability, and he likely inherits recruiting powers when nimander dies.

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:50 PM, said:

Yeah it makes a lot of sense

I was only gonna wait until it's later D4 so people can state their unbiased cases and preferences on thread

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 12:54 PM, said:

Getting people to lynch Nimander shouldn't be a problem

Merrie inheriting would also explain why Merrie said that the Sorcerer is likely to have BP as a bad-luck insurance, for me the first thought was totally having a sidekick with inheritance

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 12:54 PM, said:

Well good luck! This good win the game!

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 01:10 PM, said:

Thanks

Kilava and Denul are clear

If Nimander is Sorcerer so should be Galain

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 01:17 PM, said:

Right. It will be interesting to see how Merrid reacts if nimander gets pressure

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 02:46 PM, said:

Oh btw they asked if I was in direct contact with you or going through PS. I figured it was best to say PS, that way I can imply it was a one shot instead of an ongoing conversation.

Ampelas, on 29 April 2017 - 02:47 PM, said:

I assume he'll get zombified night 4 unless we get the sorceror.

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 03:15 PM, said:

Yeah good idea, although theoretically it wouldn't make much sense for me to contact you as RI without any new information if it was one shot and I don't think I've seen an offthread conversation carried out through PS before but who cares

Ampelas, on 01 May 2017 - 11:18 AM, said:

Thyr still suspects galain for the sorcerer. He thinks he was just acting when he told Kilava he got the clue.

Personally I don't agree with him. I think Merrid's case on osseric looked a bit sympish

Ampelas, on 02 May 2017 - 08:07 PM, said:

Maybe you should all just vote Merrid.

Silchas Ruin, on 02 May 2017 - 08:42 PM, said:

If you or Thyr wanna post something to support your causes or whatever I'd be happy to post it, also Thyr might not be with us after the end of this day

Ampelas, on 02 May 2017 - 08:48 PM, said:

Thur pointed out that Merrid and Galain both voted Nim. He doesn't like how Galain just took off for several hours and thinks Galain is protecting his minion.

Can I use multi quote between threads?

[Path-Shaper]

Ampelas, on 02 May 2017 - 08:50 PM, said:

Nope it didn't let me use my multiquotes in enail

Ampelas, on 02 May 2017 - 08:50 PM, said:

I'm on my phone so I'll have to paraphrase

Ampelas, on 02 May 2017 - 08:50 PM, said:

I'm on my phone so I'll have to paraphrase

Silchas Ruin, on 02 May 2017 - 09:00 PM, said:

I'm really not sure if a master at this stage of game would bother with helping a minion, I even think it's likely that the Sorcerer wouldn't even know the identity of such a minion

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 05:40 PM, said:

"If Osserc, Denul, Thyr, Jalan, or Galain is killed at night, contact them

Otherwise contact Ampelas, backup Thyrllan"

Those are my provisionals for tonight, btw

I'm not positive that PS accepts them but I'm just happy to contact someone, it shouldn't matter that much

The connection has been maintained. You may continue to communicate via this thread until Day 6.

Ampelas, on 03 May 2017 - 09:08 PM, said:

What does the scene mean? Osserc wasn't working alone?

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 09:09 PM, said:

Yep I've already pointed it out to PS in my role PM

Ampelas, on 03 May 2017 - 09:10 PM, said:

Thyrllan, on 03 May 2017 - 07:08 PM, said:

Thyrllan, on 03 May 2017 - 06:35 PM, said:

Had some thoughts since we last spoke. Let me know what you think.

Merrid is NOT Eager Vig nor is his accomplice the Sorcerer.

Merrid IS Sorcerer and kills and resurrects on alternate nights.

Merrid's accomplice has one NK on night one, use-it-or -lose-it, just like an Eager Vig, but is EVIL, not Town.

Merrid claims to be Eager Vig and kills on Night one. Either Silchas or Rashan, though he claims he killed Rashan. Doesn't really matter.

Merrid's accomplice on Night 1 uses use-it-or-lose it kill on either Silchas or Rashan. Doesn't really matter.

Merrid claims to be Eager Vig and that he is targeting Rashan, who he wanted lynched, but Day ends in No Lynch.

The Sheriff, who is more interested in finding Scum than guarding self-proclaimed Town Vig, guards Denul instead.

Two kills revealed at start of Day 2.

Now Sheriff is looking elsewhere for Sorcerer. Guards Osseric and Jalan on subsequent nights.

Conclusion 1: Osseric or Janal were fruitlessly guarded after one or the other had spent his use-it-or-lose-it kill on Night 1.

Conclusion 2: Merrid the Sorcerer proceeds to kill and resurrect unimpeded.

Conclusion: 3: Osseric and Jalan are still in the Scum suspect pool.

The above makes it seem too much a given that Osseric or Janal is Scum. They are just possible Scum along with Nimander and Galain in the event that Merrid is indeed the Sorcerer and not a Town Eager Vig or Scum One Time Killer.

Silchas PMs:

Silchas Ruin, on 24 April 2017 - 09:41 AM, said:

I was gonna play the noobie card but I'll cut it if too many people do that, it might prove to be detrimental in that case

Silchas Ruin, on 24 April 2017 - 02:14 PM, said:

Kilava, on 24 April 2017 - 01:04 PM, said:

Can anyone remember PS' timezone?

Just so you don't feel bad, I do! West coast, which is GMT-8 right?

Also, I have only now found out that when people in US talk about i.e South they don't really mean like the actual south of US but rather the chunk of US that you all have come to call South which doesn't really have as much to do with cardinal directions as one'd expect

Silchas Ruin, on 24 April 2017 - 02:18 PM, said:

I guess it has a lot to do with the Civil war but it still can be confusing

Silchas Ruin, on 25 April 2017 - 08:42 PM, said:

I can only target that were dead prior to the night I'm using my ability on? If I can target people who die the same night I use my ability then target whoever is most important/randomly chosen and died during night. Otherwise target whoever is lynched.

You may target someone you believe will die. If they are not in purgatory at the time the conversation would open it'll fail.


You have been killed.

Silchas Ruin, on 26 April 2017 - 05:31 AM, said:

Sigh

The Father, blessed by God and tasked to recover the dark tome, has prayed over your corpse and asked his God to spare an innocent man. A miracle occurs, and like Lazarus, you arise on the next day.

You have been resurrected, and retain your role abilities.

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 04:36 PM, said:

Contact Ampelas

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 04:36 PM, said:

Wait,

scratch that

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 04:37 PM, said:

If I contact someone who is dead the someone will then know my ability and if they're recruited then scum will know it

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 04:38 PM, said:

Well it's not much of a gamebreaking ability anyway

contact Ampelas for now then

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 05:36 PM, said:

I was thinking that Kilava could be a town roled

That Sorcerer post though

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 05:37 PM, said:

Oh yeah of course, it was then who started he RI crap

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 05:49 PM, said:

Current suspect list so that I don't forget it:

Thyrllan, Nimander
Galain
Jalan, Osseric
Kilava, Merrid
Denul

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 07:04 PM, said:

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 06:57 PM, said:

Galain, on 26 April 2017 - 07:36 AM, said:

-snip-

Galain, on 26 April 2017 - 11:07 AM, said:

-snip-

Galain's need to repeat their reasons from earlier for not being there for the end of D1 without any call for them that I can see and the need to point out that this is how they always play D2 are interesting

Ofcourse again Galain was the first one to follow the RI role PM thing, sigh

[Path-Shaper]

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 07:08 PM, said:

Thyrllan, on 27 April 2017 - 03:09 PM, said:

For emphasis:

For what it's worth, Denul is PI.

Hm this looks decidedly unscummy

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 07:10 PM, said:

So that should put Nimander as most scummy, followed by Jalan and Osserc

Silchas Ruin, on 27 April 2017 - 08:01 PM, said:

So is "if someone is killed at night and in any way roled contact them" an acceptable provisional?

Because it's technically just a simpler way of saying something like this:
If A dies at night and is roled contact A
If B dies at night an...
...
If neither of above contact Z

Or that would be accepted neither?

Silchas Ruin, on 28 April 2017 - 04:11 PM, said:

Screw it

Contact Rashan, if Rashan is not dead then Ampelas

Silchas Ruin, on 28 April 2017 - 04:13 PM, said:

Also according to dictionary it should be pretty clear to everyone what my ability probably does

Silchas Ruin, on 28 April 2017 - 05:11 PM, said:

Silchas Ruin, on 28 April 2017 - 04:11 PM, said:

Screw it

Contact Rashan, if Rashan is not dead then Ampelas

I'm gonna attempt to convince Rashan that I'm scum and maybe get some info out of them

There's basically zero chance of success but I wanna try it

First, I spotted your new orders so I'll go with those.

I thought I responded to this last night, I wasn't trying to ignore it. This leaves it a bit too vague. When I said that you can attempt to target a player that you believe will be dead at the time, I meant that you could target the leading lynch train member or someone you believed would potentially draw a nk.

In short, I'd like a specific name with provisionals over a vague target anyone roled who dies tonight.

Silchas Ruin, on 28 April 2017 - 06:04 PM, said:

Despite all the nonsensical grammar of mine I still cannot understand how can people mistake "your" and "you're", it tears my heart to pieces

Also thanks for reply, it's understandable. I assumed you were just taking the mod's required ruthlessness a bit too seriously

Honestly, it was an damn auto-correct typo. I'm usually playing from mobile, so it happens a lot more often than I care to admit.

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 02:14 AM, said:

Contact Thyrllan

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:26 AM, said:

Can I post quotes from the chancellor conversation on thread?
Downside of this thing is that Rashan could play me just as much, which is way more likely
Still thinking how to approach this

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:38 AM, said:

Oh, of course, purgatory, while Rashan is now dead for real, fuck

Silchas Ruin, on 29 April 2017 - 07:45 AM, said:

Contact Ampelas, otherwise Thyr

[Path-Shaper]

Silchas Ruin, on 02 May 2017 - 07:17 PM, said:

If Osserc, Denul, Jalan, or Galain is killed at night, contact them

Otherwise contact Ampelas

Silchas Ruin, on 02 May 2017 - 09:21 PM, said:

You should have never permitted me to be able to target NA victims

I want to change it but I'm too high for this shit

It's due to order of resolution. The potential kill resolves before your conversation opens. You still have to correctly guess the NA victim before it happens.

Silchas Ruin, on 02 May 2017 - 09:26 PM, said:

If Osserc, Denul, Thyr, Jalan, or Galain is killed at night, contact them

Otherwise contact Ampelas

I think that this should be sufficient

Is that acceptable?

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 06:54 AM, said:

"Anyways, don't mind if you tell people. Obviously I would prefer to keep my ability on the down low for now, but equally obviously can't stop you!"

This admiteddly sounds almost like Osserc was trying to be too cute with me

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 05:40 PM, said:

If Osserc, Denul, Thyr, Jalan, or Galain is killed at night, contact them

Otherwise contact Ampelas, backup Thyrllan

Yeah, I'll allow it.

If I try a role like this again in the future I'm making it a day action, damnit.


No kill tonight. You maintain contact with Ampelas.

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 09:03 PM, said:

I think I wanted to contact Thyrllan instead in such a situation
Maybe I had a reason but forgot about it
Sigh
Yeah day action sounds tempting now

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 09:05 PM, said:

Haha
Yeah
I'm idiot
Pretty sure the first line of my provisionals was supposed to "if one of those is in purgatory contact them"
I'm also pretty sure I missed Thyr's name already being there and added it as a backup :facepalm:

Silchas Ruin, on 03 May 2017 - 09:06 PM, said:

Path-Shaper, on 03 May 2017 - 09:02 PM, said:

The congregation gathers around the body of the stranger, arguing over who should be the one to search the corpse. Finally, the Father agrees to handle the situation as he performs prayers over the body of this damned soul and prepares it for burial.

The ritual scarring on the body's torso leave no doubts that he has devoted himself to the Black Arts, however upon searching his possessions the book is nowhere to be found. After discussing this revelation with the rest of the villagers, the only possible conclusion is reached: Osseric could not have been working alone.

Uhm, Osserc?

[Path-Shaper]

Nimander:

Nimander Golit, on 24 April 2017 - 12:23 AM, said:

I assume actions are submitted jointly by both of us?

You have direct control of the actions. Osseric may communicate with you and advise, but you have direct control.

Nimander Golit, on 25 April 2017 - 06:32 PM, said:

night action

kill Silchas Ruin

On res, the player will be given a new vc indicating you as his master and informing him that he is undead. Undead players will be sent to Hell instead of purgatory if they are lynched.

Nimander Golit, on 26 April 2017 - 04:52 PM, said:

Night Action

Resurrect Rashan

Your res was successful.

Nimander Golit, on 27 April 2017 - 05:59 PM, said:

Night Action

Kill Denul

Nimander Golit, on 28 April 2017 - 04:11 PM, said:

Change Night Action

Kill Thyrllan

Nimander Golit, on 02 May 2017 - 11:37 AM, said:

Night action: Resurrect Ampelas

Edit: Bolding

You have been lynched.

[Path-Shaper]

Thyrllan:

Thyrllan, on 25 April 2017 - 05:27 PM, said:

Guard Denul tonight unless lynched. Then guard Silchas Ruin.

Thyrllan, on 26 April 2017 - 08:04 PM, said:

Guard Galain tonight unless lynched. Then Guard Kilava

Thyrllan, on 26 April 2017 - 10:31 PM, said:

Path-Shaper, on 26 April 2017 - 08:33 PM, said:

I was happy to see you pop in for sign-ups, btw. I thought you'd just disappeared.

Why, thank you! *bows*


heh. Ironically, I disappeared mainly because I got my laptop fixed . I had been using my ps4 browser to surf the web (a nightmare for posting on forums, I assure you). But with my laptop restored, I had a ton of genuine work to catch up on and really didn't have time for recreational internet.

It's good to be back!

Thyrllan, on 27 April 2017 - 02:43 PM, said:

Fuck Fuck Fuck. I've been outed and don't expect to survive the night. Change of plans, though I may not live to see any results. Guard Osseric unless lynched (doubtful), then Guard Jalan

Thyrllan, on 27 April 2017 - 05:08 PM, said:

I'm really surprised I'm not dead. Either I guessed right about Osseric, or killing and resurrecting occur on alternate nights, or Scum has a choice each night between killing and resurrecting. Too many variables to come to any conclusion.

Hmm. Guarded Osseric, yet two resurrections occurred. Now I have to assume he had nothing to do with either.

Back to the drawing board.

Thyrllan, on 27 April 2017 - 05:41 PM, said:

I've got a feeling this day is going to go quickly.

Guard Janal unless lynched, then Guard Galain

You have been killed.

Thyrllan, on 29 April 2017 - 12:50 AM, said:

Path-Shaper, on 29 April 2017 - 12:34 AM, said:

You have been killed.

SH password is flyfishing.

Please remember to continue posting in alt in purgatory.

According to my assumptions based on my Night Actions, Denul and Osseric are PI.

Since I'm dead, I also have to assume that Janal is PI too.

Are these things I can talk about in Spoiler Hell with Ampelas (or with anyone else who shows up there) or not?

Yes, you may.


Purgatory though, not hell.

Thyrllan, on 29 April 2017 - 01:00 AM, said:

Okay, thanks! But now that I think of it, revealing info about what I've learned would eventually reach the Sorceror when/if he resurrects more undead.

Thyrllan, on 29 April 2017 - 01:01 AM, said:

I probably should have revealed, on thread, but was hoping guarding Jalan would get me another day.

Thyrllan, on 29 April 2017 - 01:03 AM, said:

So, my guess is that Galain is the Sorcerer.

Thyrllan, on 30 April 2017 - 11:44 PM, said:

HELP!

I accidentally posted in Purgatory using my real account and I cannot delete the post!

Thyrllan, on 30 April 2017 - 11:50 PM, said:

Well, either you or someone else removed the post. Or maybe I did succeed in deleting it myself. Anyway, sorry about that and it won't happen again...

It wasn't me.

Thyrllan, on 01 May 2017 - 12:01 AM, said:

It was probably me. The post didn't just disappear off my screen like I expected it to, but it was gone when I went back a minute later after PMing you. Probably just needed to refresh. Still, I hope Ampelas didn't see it.

Thyrllan, on 01 May 2017 - 12:10 AM, said:

Path-Shaper, on 29 April 2017 - 12:38 AM, said:

It is night.

*insert scene here later*

Thyrllan has been killed.
He was innocent and the Sheriff (guard)

Where's my scene, dammit! <3

[Path-Shaper]

Denul:

Denul, on 24 April 2017 - 12:06 AM, said:

Oooh seems super fun! Hopefully I dont attract an early kill or lynch.

Denul, on 25 April 2017 - 02:10 PM, said:

Alright, so here's one of our newbies:

Galain, on 24 April 2017 - 09:29 AM, said:

So officially has game started or not?

I want to make a case today, but I don't want to stick my neck out. Ugh!

Denul, on 25 April 2017 - 05:54 PM, said:

Ugh, I really feel like one of my biggest meta tells is that I start too many sentences in Mafia with "I mean..."

I always catch myself doing it, but never on time to do something about it! Ah well!

Denul, on 25 April 2017 - 07:24 PM, said:

What would happen if an Eager Vig used his Vig, then was lynched, then I resurrected him? Would he then be considered back to his own Day 1, or would it be whatever the Day actually is?

Asking for a friend... *coughs*

Denul, on 25 April 2017 - 07:35 PM, said:

Me and my big fucking mouth - hopefully I can subtly make whoever the bad guys are believe that Kilava's the more likely to have resurrection powers. I've a feeling the lynch will end up on me though. *sigh*

LoL - ah come on!!!

Oooh, here's another good one, can I heal myself?

Denul, on 25 April 2017 - 08:18 PM, said:

Gods, being a healer always does my head in.

I have to be just annoying enough for the killers to want to keep me around, but not so annoying that I attract a lynch. I am very bad at the latter, usually.

Denul, on 26 April 2017 - 03:36 AM, said:

LoL, totally forgot to heal! Oops!

I would have probably gone for someone else anyway, but yeah...

If I survive the day, resurrect Silchas.

Denul, on 26 April 2017 - 02:23 PM, said:

That Kilava slip might be just what I need to get through today without having to reveal. I wanna save the reveal for as long as I can, so as not to attract the kill. I'd rather my BP get hit because the killers didn't know that I was the healer, so that there's still some thoughts on why their kill didn't go through.

I assume I'll be told if my BP has been used?

Yes, you will be.

Denul, on 26 April 2017 - 03:59 PM, said:

Thanks!

And what's happening now is exactly why you should ALWAYS post at least the RI PM in the OPs.

Noted for my next foray. Though, I will point out that Ampelas' cf showed that ploy inconclusive.

Yeah, I've had the RI PM thing blow up in my face and blow in the players faces a lot.

It's just a general rule when you've got RIs in the game, because someone will ALWAYS try to CI themselves by making some oblique reference to their RI PM that only other RIs would get. I've had entire games go down the drain because of it. I've also had it not be an issue.

Just a piece of friendly advice - wasn't trying to be bitchy about it or anything!

That being said, you're the mod, so you should run the game however you want!

I appreciate it.

Btw, your res was successful.

Thanks sir!

Denul, on 27 April 2017 - 05:12 PM, said:

Well shit, at this point, I was thinking I would want to attract the killer's kill so as to allow Silchas to actually do something (presumably he has some kind of really useful power as a Channeler).

It completely didn't strike me that I could just heal Silchas.

I hope my comment about Rashan having been the Sorcerer's recruit doesn't twinge the Sorcerer's radar and he still goes for Silchas, or that he just goes after Silchas anyway.

HEAL SILCHAS

My heal stays there unless I say otherwise, please!

I feel bad for Kilava if he's a newbie - we're all jumping on him, poor guy!

Ah well, thus is Malazan Mafia!

Denul, on 28 April 2017 - 02:14 PM, said:

OMG, this whole thing about "well we always have to lynch a recruiter" shit is fucking stupid.

A RECRUITER IS NOT THE SAME AS SOMEONE WITH UNLIMITED RESURRECTIONS. WITH A RECRUITER WE GET TO FUCKING LYNCH PEOPLE AND THEY STAY DEAD. WITH UNLIMITED RESURRECTIONS, NO FUCKING LYNCHES MATTER UNLESS THE RESURRECTER IS DEAD.

Denul, on 28 April 2017 - 02:36 PM, said:

Knowing me, I'll have been arguing a fucking moot point this whole time, and the Sorcerer's just sitting there laughing his ass off at my stupidity.

Denul, on 29 April 2017 - 05:40 PM, said:

So no hit on my BP?

Continue healing Silchas please!

Your bp is still intact.

Also, noted.

TMDI:7 = No discernible town and scum... ie: factions/cults only.
TMDI:8 = As 7, but with Large number of simple roles and/or uneven teams.

So we're looking at a Cult/Faction game. Hmm at least one recruiter - the person holding the book. Some method of book transferral on their death - the killer or the hammer on a lynch perhaps.

Nice double resurrection mechanic too btw, keep us guessing who is who. Although Denul is a little too free in saying.

Kilava, on 28 April 2017 - 05:48 PM, said:

What are the people voting for the dead thinking? If there wasn't so many PI amongst them I'd think it was D-Day and a faction was one lynch from victory.

Well now that is an unexpected NK. So my theory of Church, Bookthief and scum appears accurate.

what if I don't want to kill anyone?

Must should have been may.

I can't exactly FORCE you to submit a kill, but keep in mind that I designed the game with an eager vig for a reason.

Well, there's variations where a vig dies if he doesn't vig, that's why I'm asking.

anyways, unless Tatts does some kind of batshit insane reveal, I'll try vigging him, if you think that's the right thing to do.

Do I lose the kill if I don't use it N1?

Yes, you will lose the kill.

Merrid, on 24 April 2017 - 01:21 AM, said:

hmm.
might just reveal that if a lynch seems unlikely.

Merrid, on 26 April 2017 - 02:04 AM, said:

I'm getting a feeling Denul has the resurrector role. That or symp. They are trying waaay too hard to fit in and see town.

I'd rather not lynch them yet.

oscillating between Thyr and Rashan at the moment for the NK.

Merrid, on 26 April 2017 - 02:14 AM, said:

if there's no lynch, NK Rashan

Merrid, on 26 April 2017 - 02:22 AM, said:

if Denul is lynched, and does not CF scum or cult, or FM, or anything that's evil and not-town sounding, still NK Rashan.

Merrid, on 26 April 2017 - 02:24 AM, said:

I also note you did not tell me what I will CF as. or what the hell my VC are.

that might be useful info to have.

In fact, I can't believe I didn't ask this earlier. This lends credence to Kilava's ongoing ramble about cult being afoot. You left the lot of us as recruitable fodder who don't even need win conditions.

I should've noticed this earlier, but it's been a trying couple of days.

Ah, my apologies. On death you will vc as innocent. Your VC is to lynch the sorcerer and his minions.

Merrid, on 26 April 2017 - 02:07 PM, said:

I'm sorry if I just broke the game with that. Kilava either didn't get their VC same as me (and don't bother to ask for one), or he's scum who gave himself out.

Denul might be one of the new guys who's not familiar with our PM etiquette, so I'm trying to do damage control.

Still, I don't feel THAT sorry, because, come the fuck on, how can you take a CF "innocent" and say with a straight face "this alignment is kind of unclear" ?

Merrid, on 27 April 2017 - 05:36 PM, said:

Ok, so Denul is Father.

Kilava is dumb fuck RI who I would probably give a mod warning to by now if I was modding this to STOP trying to catch people out on their PMs.

What else? There needs to be a Sheriff still.

Galain claims RI, and backed up kilava
Amp later claimed to "get" Kilava's RI signal.

Jalan?
Osseric?
Thyr?
NG, whom I forget exists?

Is there anyone else I'm actually forgetting?

Merrid, on 28 April 2017 - 05:29 PM, said:

Can someone explain to me why the fuck everyone is being lazy sheep?

I mean, tomorrow we get Ampelas back. So what, we lynch Ampelas?

If your entire game plan is to have the channeler (which no one knows WTF he does) win the game for you, just say that.

Merrid, on 28 April 2017 - 05:31 PM, said:

I'm dealing with frustrating crap at work, trying to explain to some thick-headed (but well-meaning) co-workers that they are taking things too serious. And then I check the thread and I encounter this idiocy.


I swear, this month's costing me many gray haiirs. Can't fucking wait for April to end,

Merrid, on 28 April 2017 - 05:55 PM, said:

Should I bother pointing out that if the sheriff reveals we can narrow it down even further? (My money is on Osseric being sherrif)

No, I don't think I'll bother. Could be a nice surprise to scum further down the line.

Hey, talk to JPK bout that, I just copied over the PMs so that I could clear the PS inbox to get ready for next game!

[Kruppe of Darujhistan]

Did Rashan know by whom he was resurrected? I mean, yes he probably knew he was resurrected by the Sorcerer, but did he know specifically that it was Nimander?


I ask because had I been resurrected by Osserc and wasn't informed that it was by his hand, the others would have had a hard time convincing me to vote to lynch him (assuming they weren't just going to automatically lynch me first). Once Nimander was revealed as the Sorcerer I was that much more convinced that Osserc was innocent. Plus, I had grown quite fond of him!

Thank you for doing that Blend! I appreciate it! I've had a really crappy last couple of days. Baby has a tiny cools and I've been working 14+ hour days to cover.

Also, Kruppe...

After another mislead hanging of an innocent man, the mob dispersed to mull over what had led them to this point.

Thinking he'd found his perp, The sheriff Thyrllan sat guard from where he'd locked him up in the confessional. Slowly as the night passed by he began to drift off into sleep. As the weight of his eyelids grew heavier, he nearly missed the movement at the back of the chapel.

Unholstering his weapon, he found the town troublemaker Osseric playing with a knife in the last row of pews with a malicious grin on his face.

"Well howdy Sheriff, I guess you got me. I can't believe you didn't look into me sooner. I mean, each time you cuffed me and took me to face my parents after breaking into shops last summer, I thought for sure you'd finger me immediately when something went missing from the church."

"Drop your knife, boy. My weapon is loaded and I will use it, so help me God." The boy nearly laughed at the threat, but complied as his Master was stepping into place.

"Oh, Sheriff, I guess you got me." He snickers as the cuffs are secured around his wrists. Then the boy decides to struggle, ensuring the officer's attention is kept fully on him as Nimander steps up from behind and slides the knife into his back.

In the morning, the survivors find Thyrllan's body handcuffed to the front of the confessional.

[spruce]

As was customary in the Village in those troubled times, one by one the villagers lick Thyrllan's face and pat him on the head, placing a small pebble in his mouth.
