Carnivale Game Thread

[Magicziggy]

Forty Miler must refer to Mantis. She was a fake, a traitor. And we voted her off.

[higgs2]

Is that you higgs/Lila?

Is what me?

wait, do you mean a 40 miler? I don't think it's possible. 1. I'm not scum and 2. My summary says that I through in my lot with the carnivale, I posted it in yesterday's thread. I don't know why irre asked the vig to take me out btw unless it was so she's be safe. frankly I expected to be taken out.

[Magicziggy]

If we have a vig, Irre gave direct advice to the vig to take out Higgs.
If the vig is working for the cult, how did Irre die?

Probably, but oblivion indicated more than one in the OP of day 1:

Wake up agents and roustabouts! It's time to set up. We won't jump for a while, so careful not to burn the lot. Keep your eyes out for forty milers, because Management says we have some.

Vote to send one forty miler off the lot.

No mayor vote. Management runs this joint.

I read that as vote to get rid of the scum. It's nothing. Just flavour.

oblivion on forty milers:

Also used to describe anyone or anything that is perceived to be fake or phony.

IOW, I'm still not convinced by your character claim.

I see. Well it's all I know I was told I was lila the bearded lady. All I could find was this description which I've already posted:


Season 1
Immediately established as Lodz's bedmate, Lila is a snob without any real money. She entertains delusions of being the focal point of the carnival, and of being above the rest of the carnies. In reality, though, she's just another bearded lady, except that hers is real. She remains fairly unimportant throughout most of season 1, serving more as a catalyst than a character. Lodz employed her to keep tabs on Ben, whom she tried unsuccessfully to seduce on several occasions, and he also used her in his plot to murder Ruthie. Lodz placed the poisonous snake in with Ruthie's dresses that Lila mended and had her deliver them to Ruthie's trailer anonymously. It is unclear as to whether or not Lila was aware of the murder plot, although we can assume that she was not since she and Ruthie appeared to be non-hostile acquaintances.

Season 2
Lila, distraught over Lodz's mysterious disappearance, seeks out Samson's help. Samson, who was in the middle of trying to dispose of Lodz's body, feeds her a flimsy line about Lodz deserting in the night. Unconvinced, and mistrustful of Samson, Lila discovered the clues that indicate that Lodz's disappearance was as much a surprise to him as it was to her. Her fears are moderately allayed, however, when she is woken one night in Lodz's traditional fashion. Namely, cunnilingus. Amusingly enough, though, it is not Lodz who is the cunning linguist, but Ruthie (albeit possessed by a deceased Lodz). Heartened by the temporary return of her lover, Lila tries to force Samson's hand by revealing what she knows, but her insurrection goes awry when no one really cares that Lodz is gone. Beaten, she has no choice but to throw her lot in with the rest of the carnies.

Frankly Lodz sounds like a bad guy, plotting murder with snakes lol. But there was no lovebird stuff in my role, just the name and bearded lady. I don't see how I'd be a 40 miler.

That is what I thought too.

I think 'the vig' (still not convinced it's not an SK) would be working for irre ... I think it more likely irre was trying to look townish with the 'helpful advice' ... Earlier you'd asked about who we all think the vig should go for as a secondary vote thing.

hmmm .. that looks like you and irre working together, MZ.

The vig would be working for us not the cult/scum.

[higgs2]

No the vig works for town.

UT's claimed he is Lodz ... why would he do that if he's not the town half of the pair?

It's possible you're both town, like Ani and mono were .. but I find that a stretch ...

I'm reluctant to vote either of you as I don't think we can afford to lose one town player today, let alone two.

I meant "would NOT be working for irre" .. as is pretty obvious in the context of the rest of what I said ... Sorry for the error.

[charlou]

Faaaaaaaark, there are so many scenarios in my head, I don't know who the hell to believe.

We're not masons, we're not lovers. And most of the characters have a dark side so even though I brought up the attempted murder with snakes that does not mean he is scum. My impression is that there is a seleton in every closet.
