Okay, wait, this is 'actuvely trying to needlessly shade players in a serious manner" ?

Checking in - what's with the teapot talk instead of the traditional dragonsecks?

vote Kilava

for trying to subvert our tropes.

vote Denul

Where do you think Kilava gets the bones from is what I want to know?


I mean, it's pretty clearly Day 1 shenanigans that are regular around here.

Wait, what? I didn't even notice that you had voted me. Lemme go see your reasoning...

Don't wait for the translation! Answer the question!!!

I mean, given I don't know who's hiding behind the Kilava alt, it'd be impossible for me to actually answer the question. If it was Khell, I'd say that Khell is full of bones, that's why he must always die as soon as possible. If it was Tatts, I'd say that Tatts doesn't need bones, he's plenty random enough to do something like this. If it was Messremb, I'd say that it's Messremb, the forum's best symp, bar none. Anyway, I could come up with reasonings for everyone, including the newbies, but heck, they wouldn't necessarily apply because I have no idea who Kilava actually is.

That's a pretty good answer. So what do you think of Nimander's absence or Osseric's frivolity?

Praise be, a glorious third page and the end of our troubles!

I heard right, didn't I? That we would resolve this terrible matter by the third page, and then we get to go home? I'm sure someone said that. I think it was Thyrllan.

I tend against lynching someone for Day 1 frivolity. If it continues into Day 2, then I'd be happy with looking at it as potential symp-work - i.e. doing shit just to muddy up the thread to make it harder to find scum. But it's Day 1, it's not unusual for someone to be less than serious, heck I've done it many times myself, though I try to err more towards actually playing the game, even on Day 1, personally.

Re: Nimander - this is just the age old "Should we lynch an inactive player on Day 1" argument. Policy-lynching someone isn't ever a terribly GREAT idea, but if we're going to do it, Day 1 would be the better day to do it on, especially on a Day 1 with so little actual content to work with.

Okay, I'm gonna be quite busy, and if we're talking policy lynching...

I am a vigilante. I have a "use it N1 or lose it forever" NK (believe you me, I had some strong words to PS about that). I can use that instead of a lynch for silly Day 1 reasons, since I'm not seeing much with 8h to go, and we're starting to speak about lynching low posters

Discuss.

A rather thin day 1. Not much to go on.

Ampelas seemed to be suddenly very serious and focused. And Jalan was a bit over eager in his vote

Seriously, though, what are we supposed to do now except lynch you before you kill someone randomly? If we let you live, how are we supposed to know if you are not actually scum? If there is but one death tonight, you can say you didn't use your NK and lost it, though you might be scum who actually did the killing?

Also, before your "reveal," there were three players with less posts than you. Why would you even be concerned about being a low-poster lynch victim?

Seriously, what a boring Day 1. I guess everyone's being cagey given how little information we have about the game setup.

Anyway, I guess the only thing that kind of stands out to me so far is the following:

When you die, you go to purgatory. Please continue posting in-alt there.


At a guess from this statement we'll be getting partial CFs and there is* a resurrection mechanic. Fun times.


*or is the potential for there to be


Can anyone remember PS' timezone?



I hate these types of 'cases,' but I have to point out that Kilava is speculating mechanics openly, which is always more helpful to scum than town.

That being said, I've no idea if there are traditional scum in this game, though from the opening scene, I would assume it's basically a town vs. scum with some weird mechanics and roled townies.


You bitch about Kilava talking mechanics and then do some speculating of your own. I'm impressed!


That certainly is special.

Do you see any other reason that PS would ask people to post in "purgatory" in alt? I specify purgatory as it seems likely from this that the dead go to Spoiler Hell rather than Spoiler Heaven - for the new players we have an additional "dead" thread on occasion for game reasons, locked away from the rest of us.

You want some more speculation? Look at the TMDI of this game. 7-8. I'll save you the trouble of looking it up:

Quote

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 those of us, like me, with a RI PM are looking to lynch potentially ( */#>$- SPECULATION WARNING -$<#\* ) a non-allied recruiter and a scum pair and somewhere in there the book holder. Because if we don't we're hoping to get recruited which isn't how you play.

The alting skills are weak in this one.

If it wasn't for 11 players in signup and 11 alts I'd be looking to lynch you for having multiple alts. Still looks off to me. Explain.

Jalan was pointing up to his own prior post and Osseric got in the way.

That's quite special.

Just to check - the underlined isn't you hinting that it's a Day Vig that forces EoD, right?

Eager Vig is a weak role, it is your call but personally I'd say that unless you have strong feelings that you think thread is missing about someone let it go.

9 minutes after Osseric posts is getting in the way?
