Unless inheritance is three or more deep, the Vampires can no longer kill.


Unless they recruit Buffy (or her successor, after her death).

Heh, we're looking at the same situation and reading it completely differently. There were 8 players left before Thyr was killed, so I'm sure he did not assume it's D-day. That's one thing. Next: if Thyr knew Lock was lying (very likely), he might have just hedged his bets. He didn't want his name on the train if I get lynched because he knew it would come back to bite him in the ass. And it's Ment we're talking about - if anyone planned 5 moves ahead, he did. This reminds of a game from a few months back, when Macros and Tatts were paired killers. Macros pushed Tatts under the bus on D1 and sailed to victory. Didn't quite work out that way for Ment, but it's plausible.


Yeah but Mac and Tatts weren't in a convo, so they did that because if they wanted to kill anyone otherwise, they both would have had to put in the same target.


Are you saying that vamp leader has off-thread comms with recruits? I don't recall a faction game where that was a case. So this is exactly the same.


I'm saying that vamp leader doesn't have to put in same target as his fledlings in order to effectively target someone. I'm saying that T&M had a motivation to kill each other beyond distancing, whether they were in a convo is irrelevant to this point.

Finally, coming back to the point that I have been trying to make over and over again, regardless of what you make of my play, there is no way for Lock to be town. You guys are spending another day grilling me over Lock's accusation but look at the game and think about it. Is there any possible scenario in which his story adds up?


What about the scenario where you are lying? How is that impossible/is Lock scum in the scenario?


This is my point precisely! Even if for whatever reason you think I'm lying/a vampire/whatever, LOCK'S STORY STILL DOESN'T ADD UP. because of this:

Apart from Buffy, NO. Most likely not, in any case.

Conclusion for reasons.


If there are no townies with kill powers to be recruited, how could I have killed Silchas? And since the whole case on me is built on Lock's claim that I killed Silchas, it just falls apart. It's bogus.


There's the possibility that you're a vampire and killed Siclhas and are lying?

It seems highly likely to me that Buffy would be recruit proof. Opposing faction leaders usually are.

Buffy was RP in the last gmae iirc?

Also I woulda thought it's more likely vampires would lose the possibility to recruit rather than to kill by losing their leaders, as the recruit ability is more powerful. Another one of your conclusions or?

Also, to address sudden appearance after time-out: I got a mod-kill warning from PS, and remembered there was a game going on.

I don't know anything about last game. I suppose my continued avoidance of looking into it isn't helping me now, so I suppose I should break down and finally check it out.

My conclusions are based on what I can infer from my own role. Therefore, I have little to say about recruitment dynamics, but if Drusilla and Spike were the top dogs, then I'd say they were killer and replacement killer, and that Ment was either a recruiter or a recruit.

Um, why are you being obtuse?

Spike WAS Ment! Far more likely they had alternate kill/recruit powers.

Far more reasonable that Spike/Drusilla killed Silchas

Bliss are you aware that you ended D5 about 12 hours early and apparently copy-pasted resolution from D4 including Thyr who's now dead?

So...I can see PS posted in spoiler heaven a couple of minutes after 'resolving'. No one's posted since so can't tell from that if this is part of the game or a mistake.

Show experts: Any idea what this might be if it is an actual thing?

I am not sure, she will be in bed and I do not think MM is being used. So just continue from here.

As usual at this hour, I'm lurking and checking the thread occasionally but no clue about the timeout.

There's a good 12+ hours left in the day.

Need more from Jalan. A modkill warning should prompt participation, not just "here I am to avoid a modkill. See you in another 36."

I think today basically comes down to whether you think Thyr was symping or fake-symping Nimander.
