I like the tension.

I'll make some obvious points here but I think they should be said, and I might get night-killed.

With two very full wagons, I doubt that the scum would be voting for their own, so if a scum is lynched, look to the other wagon.

If a townie is lynched, look for the scum on that wagon; the other wagon might be townie also, but if it's two townie wagons, then the scum are probably evenly split.

This is definitely tense. I got back ~10-20 minutes before the end and (since the mod has not responded about an extension) been watching to see if anything is posted - from mod or anyone else. As for your points: obviously whoever is on the final wagon will be judged accordingly. However if the wagon turns up town it will be impossible to know if the other wagon wasn't ALSO town, short of someone with a cop role or similar.

Spaztik voting for iSoc to save himself is understandable, lurking or not. I can hardly imagine him doing anything else, and I'm frankly surprised it took THIS long.

Robert voting to tie things up again - making it 'interesting' in the same way that EM did with the three-way mexican standoff, creating a situation where your vote cannot be the final one so you'll avoid the spotlight. It doesn't quite sit well with me.

At the moment, if neither Imran nor I vote, iSocialism is still lynched since he was the first to get to 5 votes. The only way a vote would change anything is if it's a vote for Spaztik; otherwise it's locking in iSocialism.

I previously was leaning more towards Spaztik than iSocialism. But the way iSoc came out with a half claim and subsequently refused to elaborate - even in the face of his lynch and the information it will deny the town - makes me think he CANNOT claim without having to come up with a fake role someone else could counter. Given that TBRaiders, whom I consider town, is on the iSoc wagon gives it extra weight; given Robert, EM, and Lyner (whom I am watching) on the Spaztik wagon make me want to NOT vote there. I still suspect Spaztik. I don't have to vote at this point; but I'm not going to sit on the sidelines here and be a lurker. I accused Ovid of being unhelpful when asked, and have kept my vote there until now on that rationale. With you doing the same thing now, I can do no less. Let the dice fall where they may.

Vote: iSocialism

let's not forget that we had 3 waggons at some point. i'm guessing that it's quite possible that scum might have jumped on mine if either one of the 2 contenders were to be scum. however, there probably are 2 factions of scum and one of them probably doesn't have a partener so there you go.

[Preston]

Bleh, it looks like my post got in 2 minutes after the deadline. However it's still there, and I suspect the mod will count it - not that it would change the outcome anyway. Now I just cross my fingers and hope we chose right. This was definitely a very tense end to the day.

We've had wagons all over the place today it seems. R2V, killgor, iSocialism, Ovidsidios, spaztik - almost half the people still alive have been target at some point or another.

I don't know if I'd believe in 2 factions of scum - it's possible I guess. Never played where that was the case. If we seem the same two methods of killing at night (head trauma and vanishing), then it would lend additional weight to that theory.

In terms of sheer odds, for 2 people out of 12 the odds of neither being scum (assuming 3 scum) are (9/12 * 8/11) = 72%. If we assume 4 anti-town (potentially 2 scum factions, or 3 scum + 1 SK) then the numbers are (8/12 * 7/11) = 63%

Given iSocialism's fatalism and reactions at the end of the day, I am hoping we got this right. He could very likely have thrown out enough reasonable doubt to shift votes to Spaztik if he had been open - but he opened THAT can of worms himself by referring to his role. It really irks me when someone does that... you can vote and act on your role info all you like, but don't even mention you HAVE a role unless you are prepared for the scrutiny and questioning that follows. To do anything else is just disingenuous.

Anyway, enough watching this for now; show's over until the Mod weighs in and the big reveal happens. Still way too tense x.x

I honestly hope Kazio will actually tell us roles after this. We can only speculate what a certain role is. I honestly don't like it as a whole and wouldn't do it if I was modding. 

[Electric Mango]

Preston are you kidding me? You said that you did not like the fact that both Robert and I have voted to keep this thing tied up vs putting the hammer down. My Mexican stand off did not sit well for you? Look at how much information we have been getting! Tell me after today's lynch and tonight's events unfold and tell me that what is happening now is not hella better than just me vjumping on the Oblivion bandwagon. YOU are the one looking suspicious.

With 12 alive, it takes 7 to reach majority and 4 to reach half-majority.
iSocialism and Spaztik Muffin are the current wagon leaders at L-3

People have grown paranoid after the death of a patrolman and the disappeareance of the recently widowed old man.

 

Perhaps we are indeed attacked by aliens and the living dead.

 

The government refuses to acknowledge this threat so the people have taken it upon themselves to protect their lives.

 

Suspects were rounded up but one stood out.

 

"I'm not an alien! I look like just everyone else," protested iSocialism.

 

"We can never be sure. Those aliens look shockingly like us," replied Big Ego.

 

"How could I prove that I'm a human being? Tell me!"

 

"There's only one way to find out," said Spaztik Muffin.

 

iSocialism, Lt. John Harper [Town Captain], was lynched.
 
It's now Night 2. Night actions to me by Wednesday, March 25th, 2015 @ 20:30 EDT

[Kaziocore]

Ahoy! All of us on this earth, know that thar is a time to live, and that thar is a time to die, yet death is always a shock to those marooned.
 

T'is even more of a shock, when death, thee proud brother, comes suddenly without warning.

Beloved Criswell was found dead in his porch. He didn't see thee bullet coming.

Lyner, Criswell, was shot in the head.

Something has also happened but I’m pretty sure that everyone should post like a pirate until thee day ends.

Sorry for the one week delay. This will not happen again 

Also for some reason replying to this topic appends it to my last post.

[Electric Mango]

Arrr! Interesting that we only had one night kill last night. Also why am I talking like a pirate?

[TBRaiders]

I will need a couple days to read this forum again and get caught up, but I do remember wondering why iSo didn't role claim and save us from lynching him.  I went back and read his posts and scratch my head why a townie would post how he posted.  This probably stems from the guilt of leading the charge against him, which now has me gun shy.  I was so sure he was scum and he could have easily convinced me otherwise.

Well shave me belly with a rusty razor! Speak like a pirate or ye will walk thee plank.

[TBRaiders]

Yarr! ok

[killgor]

Sail ho! new day!

 

 

also, anyone know why we only had one death tonight?

[Big Ego]

Yarr! Maybe it took a week because thee scum be not bestowing their night actions!

 

[killgor]

Thar be a the hour limit 'til when people can send their actions. either someone used a one shot action to murder on th' first nightfall or a townie blocked a scums action

[Imran Ehsan]

Bad play iSoc... if you role claimed i may have re-evaluated my vote.

 

now, i have pretty much forgotten what happened last day so i will need to skim through the earlier pages again to try to figure out why lyner was targetted.

 

ggarrhh?!

[KevinH]

Alas! Perhaps two scum both targeted Lyner, although thee narrative says he didn't see thee bullet coming. Maybe he couldn't see thee second bullet because he was already dead (or did thee dead hull disappear?)

[Electric Mango]

Yarrgh, me still suspicious of Preston and Kevin. Preston more so.

Also booty

[Spaztik Muffin]

arrgg bout time we got back to this. gonna take me a while to re-read everything

 

1 death at night sure is odd
