No, I think she's genuinely trying to figure this all out and suspicious about what's going on. The only info she's getting is from those who are talking about what we know. I'm certain irre's got to be found by her witch/seer overnight to be connected with her team. I think that may be my team, but won't know until if/when dorothy views her. I can't see anyone else who is a better candidate for tonight's view atm, but that will be up to the team to decide.
It makes it difficult when players don't talk much like ani, feck, mono, etc. Where's mortzigmen for that matter? I've seen him lurking.

This post from mantis on day 3 leads me to think she's either an indie or knows her own team:

I'm going back through players' posts to see if I can find anything of use, firstly to my team, and generally for the game.

It's pretty silly for oblivion to give you the ball and not the means of how to pass the ball. That's like asking people to lynch someone without giving the lynch mechanism. It makes zero sense to me.

That's why I've asked if anyone else knows the mechanism. Maybe someone does, but hasn't spoken up yet .. or they don't understand what they're supposed to do either.

I have played mafia games where different people have different pieces of information. Is there even a wizard do you think? It seems to me that there must be one and he must be independent and he must have something for help everyone. Help dorothy go home, help me with the ball, I do't know what he'd help the munchkins with, maybe getting unbanished.

Just got back from helping the girl with her English thesis. I think there has to be a wizard as he is the one banishing people. My bet is still on Mantis. Of course he could be with the other witch. Considering the odds we should of come up with the other witch's team by now yet nothing. I think the trigger for transferring the ball will be the banishing of a certain special but I can't fathom who.
I can live with doubt, and uncertainty, and not knowing. I think it's much more interesting to live not knowing than to have answers which might be wrong.

It doesn’t frighten me. - Richard Feynman

Mantis, I hope you're on my team :beg:

As much as I call utter bullshit on higgs' story, I'm not sure she's the best choice for banishment today.. I'll wait on input from everyone before I make my final decision.

Charlou: trucks could drive through the holes in your story, I agree with denny.

Irre. I am. And I also thought that DennyB was as well with his all his talk of "monkeying around". Guess not.

Sorry for being inactive guys - I had my mom over all yesterday and today, with going off to work, mixed in there.


I think that Charlou's team is becoming too strong for my liking.


And higgs, you said:

Right -- so maybe it is the Wizard doing the banishing in the evenings, by selecting one person. And if it just so happens that he selects OZMA - you - than instead of banishing, he takes the glass ball from you??? ...And no banishing will happen? Or... the game will be over when he receives it?? I'm slightly lost.

i'm lost too. But there are two things that need to happen and the ball is one. I was just starting to think that maybe the wizard was not evil after all but more neutral, like an sk, wins with any team who's left. I don't know. I don't think banishing me will transfer the ball I think it will send it away. But I really don't know. I'm wondering if people are going to start coming back.

Oblivions games aren't usually quite this... weird.

:pop: I'm not getting involved in the bickering back and forth because it doesn't really affect me and I doubt anyone would listen to me anyway now my win condition is out. I'm just watching and getting reads on people. I may start messing with the lynches towards endgame but for now you can all just whittle down the numbers for me. True neutral was always a fun alignment
Outside the ordered universe is that amorphous blight of nethermost confusion which blasphemes and bubbles at the center of all infinity—the boundless daemon sultan Azathoth, whose name no lips dare speak aloud, and who gnaws hungrily in inconceivable, unlighted chambers beyond time and space amidst the muffled, maddening beating of vile drums and the thin monotonous whine of accursed flutes.

Oh wait, you mean now that we all kow it. I thought you mean now that it is impossible to achieve.

frankly given what you've said it's probably in the best interest of the team members to get rid of you.

Are you assuming you're on irre's team because you're a monkey too? Are you disaffected too? Dorothy's task is to gather up disaffected Ozlings one night view at a time .. I don't know yet, but that may include you too? :dono:
