Carnivale Game Thread

okay, reread your post and see where you're coming from with the numbers thing ..

I was thinking it's more like the don/cult leader (irre) on her own and recruiting from night 0 to build a scum team ...

If that is the case, would any roles that were recruited have been transferred too? ... for example, the blocker?

[Magicziggy]

Well for one thing, Feck was the first to vote Mantis, who we all thought was scum until we worked out she was indie.
So why would a vig take out Feck?

Second, I thought zigmen and Mono were fair game for vig kills given the tone of the thread.

Plus Irre. Umm, if that's a scum kill then we have three teams.

[Magicziggy]

Interestingly Oblivion provides a link to cult leader in the op.
That's unusual.

[charlou]

Why are the colt kills scum VIG* kills? Isn't it more likely there was a one shot vig who garotted Feck and the rest are scum kills?

Fuck, I hadn't even considered that.

If it is the case and irre started out alone and has been recruiting her team from night 0 it would mean the night zero scum kill (Zig) was hers too. How ironic, considering he viewed her as town.

Following that link gives:

A cultist is a role that has been recruited into a cult by a Cult Leader. Usually, for the interests of balance, a cultist loses any powers they had before they were converted.

Firstly, zig was killed night 1.
Secondly, I don;t think the cult can kill and recruit. Very likely only recruit from town.

Firstly, I stand corrected .. thank you

and secondly .. you may be right, but if the colt kills are scum kills then the evidence seems to point to one of two possible scenarios that I can think of ... either scum started with just irre and are killing and recruiting each night .. or there was a scum team from the start and they've not recruited anyone .. which takes us back to the three way scum/cult/town thing that higgs suggested?


I'm off to work for a few hours.

[Magicziggy]

I'm thinking the three team scenario as a distinct possibility.
I forgat that Higgs suggested it. Interesting

[gib]

I had irre down as the most town of all. Shit.

[Don't Panic]

Bastards. Told you I was town.

[DennyB]

Yes, I remember someone saying that. I didn't know who they meant. If it was irre she was probably full of shit. I figured they were special hunting trying to get the vig to out.

Did anyone get visited by an amorous skillful distraction?

I had some RL thinks come up and have nissed alot of game play. I quickly red through day 3 and am on the first page of day 4

I was visited by what I assume is the prostitute last night.

[DennyB]

I think Higgs would be our most cleared player at this point. Irre suggesting her as a vig kill then flipping scum clears her in my mind with one possible exception. What if there are 3 teams?
Also how does having no Mayor come into play?

[DennyB]

And to explain my absence, I had stuffed fish at my wifes holiday party. There was no mention of clams in the stuffing but I did no specifically ask. Apparently there were! This is bad for me - very Ill.
I got 2 hours sleep and still feeling like shit, I had to drive 2 states away to run a job. Not a good couple of days for me. Atleast this morning I feel half human.

My vote on DP was to get him involved. I was not back in time to remove that vote or I would have. I bet there are scum on that bandwagon.

What's the odds of having 3 teams and what could they be?

I am town BTW.

I think there has to be 3 teams and that would certainly mean Higgs is scum.
Irre's certainty about Higgs may have been based on a failed recruitment.
I don't think cults can recruit from the scum team.

My best guess is 3/4 town, 3 scum, 2/1 cult

Scum would have a Don maybe and one other special that I think would be disabled with Mantis' demise. The only one I can think of is a blocker. Therefore on a night with no scum kill and only a town blocker, Denny is looking like the man. I'm open to suggestions though.

Not the case.
