The Innsmouth Look game thread.

zigmen's drive by and quick vote switch is odd. Why make the case for me, then have a vote on me for only a matter of minutes before switching to b.tern without explanation?

It does look odd. almost too odd to be scummy.

I'm leaning town on DP, now that I've had time to think about his posts today. It would be a foolish scum ploy to try to get me lynched on the basis that Aza supposedly doesn't issue block notice PMs.

I'm leaning more town on dp today, too.

Re the linking of me with feck, I would just caution people that when I flip town it does NOT mean feck is scum.

No, but for me, it will bring my earlier concerns back to the front burner.

I'm the beloved princess. I'm town, but the effect of my role will become more and more antitown as the game progresses. I've never seen this role work well for town, and I think it's because the player usually worries too much about not getting killed and winds up getting killed late enough in the game that the balance tilts way in scum's favor.

I think it's better for town if I'm gone today. later in the game could be disasterous, because when I die, there will be two night cycles with no intervening day. Right now, no specials have outed, so we have a really good chance of most (maybe all) specials getting 2 nights worth of actions - particularly views - without being targeted by scum. The longer I'm in the game, the more likely that scum can use a double night to pick off specials and arrange an endgame to their liking.

Were you trying to get yourself lynched yesterday?

[oblivion]

not lynched. was trying to draw a night kill, actually. it's why I didn't want to take a chance of being mayor and possibly protected.

Princess ... that's a new one for me ... "this role"? ... Link please.

Til then I'm suspecting jester.

I was Princess Leia the previous time I had this role. I didn't die until night 3. town lost, though given the size of the game (bigger than this one), I don't think I was as much of a factor as I could be in this game.

[Athene]

If she's telling the truth then it is best to get her out of the game now, if she's lying and is the jester then the game becomes a race for second place assuming the game continues after a jester win.

Right. That's a new one for me.

I was going to suggest we should try to keep you in the game .. but your outing has set you up for a NK. Can we work with that? I don't think so.


crosspost Athene ... agreed.

Fuckit .. I'm going with trusting all the games I've played with ob and ##vote oblivion##

[oblivion]

If there is a vig, and if town wifoms this into a jester ploy, then please kill me tonight.

I'm claiming now because I'm worried one of our specials will either voluntarily out or be forced to out, given that the lynch votes are very unsettled 14 hours into this day. Lynch me, and that won't happen.

ksen, does this fit the flavour?

[oblivion]

according to my role PM, I'm a descendant of Dagon. His blood flows in my veins or some such.

p cool flavor, though the role sucks ass.

[ksen]

ksen, does this fit the flavour?

I'm finding it hard to reconcile a princess type person with a Lovecraft story.

Oblivion, can you elaborate some more?

[charlou]

##unvote oblivion##

yikes. I don't know what to make of this.

[oblivion]

See above, ksen.
