[Zigmen]

Unvote

Vote Denny

Aza, have you already requested yout kill?

[Linus]

With the unvotes, I count 10 votes still on irre. I'd go a long with any lynch not on: Feck, MZ, MSG, UT, Athene, myself. I'd prefer DP.

[divagreen]

oh bollocks I forgot to rhyme.
I hope it isn't too bad a crime

let me rephrase to appease the gods
and maybe avoid their lightning rods

Too much she plays her noobie card.
In my books that pings really hard

Whatever. I am a Go-back. I have a name. When I received my name I was all excited because she is a kick-ass character. I looked her up. My character is also a part of a third? But I found that in research and not from the original PM. ANd I was told that we only win if all threat to town is removed.

The GM also asked if I wanted a mentor. I asked does it look like I need one. I figured that since the game had already started I didn't want to bother her with it, since I guess mentors are not lying around ready to leap at taking on the responsibility. I did ask for one on standby, but apparently I was tagged all scummy by then.


I think Irre is telling the truth. She could have manipulated this game in so many ways. If she is not telling the truth then there are a couple of players who are putting forth an elaborate set of lies, which is not unheard of, especially if all we are managing to do is run around and accuse each other, even if *you all* (I was too much of a coward) lynch a troll on the first night.

So I,

Unvote Irre

I also think Zigmen is off the hook.

I am going to not follow anybody else and go with whom I think is mighty suspicious:

Vote Don't Panic

[irretating]

If we want to save Irre, we'll all need to choose the same target.
I reckon she got up to about 13 votes and maybe 4 have pulled off.

Question Irre. Did you have a night kill?
Whay UT? Why Aza?

crosspost Irre. You've answered about Aza

crosspost Irre: diva is town imo. Her play is consistent with games I've seen on Ratskep.

Why UT? Well, I knew he'd be gunning for me to see if I'm town, because he likes to know my alignment and whether to remove me from the game or trust my scum hunting. I gave him a fairly innocuous gift (a hammer which enabled him to have a double vote) and I mentioned the word hammer three times on day 1 to signal to him that it was me that gave him the gift. I was sucking up to him, basically.

Yes, MZ, I tend to think diva is town. She'd be asking her questions on the scum board if she were scum, and she'd be counselled against doing revenge FoS's too.

[irretating]

Oh and no I don't get to do anything but give gifts to others.

[Linus]

OK, let's agree on a single alternative BW.

irre: 8 (ut, praying, charlou, feck, athene, dp, mantis, denny)
praying: 1 (msg)
diva: 1 (aza)
denny: 1 (zigmen)
zigmen: 1 (irre)
dp: 1 (diva)
athene: 0 ()
(no active vote: linus, nellikin, mz, bolero)

[Magicziggy]

There are votes on Denny and diva and now DP.
Lucky day if your name starts with D.

DP is a difficult one. He tends to skate on the first few days even when town.
Haven't seen his scum game in a while.

My preference is Denny. Or Mantis.

But, we all have to vote the same or Irre will go anyway. So diva, if we don;t choose you, you need to go with the flow.

[divagreen]

Irre, you always think I am scum. I swear you are projecting.

[irretating]

I'm not sure you'll be able to swing the lynch. If you are able to, here's the list of things I've thought of to forge and what they will be able to do. Note, oblivion and gib have told me that they reserve the right to deny my gift if they deem it too much of a game changer.

* a boomerang that enables the recipient to throw it and have two players switch places for the night
* a knuckleduster that enables the recipient to knock out another player for the duration of the night
* a divining rod that enables the recipient to determine if another player is a troll

I ran the above three past the mods and I didn't hear back saying there was a problem with any of them, so I think they are good to go. If I survive I will give the boomerang to one of MZ or feck, and they will be able to swap UT with someone else to protect him. Or if you think he will be safe, I could give the divining rod so you can do another view tonight.

[Magicziggy]

Irre, you always think I am scum. I swear you are projecting.

In the context of your limited experience, "always" is a bit rich.
If Irre is telling the truth about her role, then her read on you is the same as mine.

[irretating]

Irre, you always think I am scum. I swear you are projecting.

Actually, I don't always. I haven't even FoS'd you in this game.

[Bolero]

Yay, we got a troll!! (Sorry, just catching up) Big bummer about higgs, though.

OK folks, I'm almost up to speed, and it seems like we were voting irre, but now you think her explanation has cleared her - have I got that right?

And as for the voting, well, I suppose that anyone who is still voting for irre looks a bit suss - would that be fair?

I will go with the flow in order to save Irre, but I will have to go back and see what you are talking about with Denny and Mantis. My first response to Mantis is that she is town, but she showed up on my radar too, I am just unable to articulate as to why. Denny...I am not following your reasoning at all.

[Linus]

DP really should be either removed or cleared before endgame.

vote dp

Jump on this BW or consolidate some other BW (and I'll follow you).

I dunno. There's a school of thought that says removing indie players is good for town. There's another that says indie players that are town compatible (i.e. their win condition allows town to win also) can help town. Oblivion is known as a 'noble savage' because she plays for a town win when she is a town compatible indie.
