I'm slightly more comfortable lynching the lurker than a claimed power role, even if it's the weakest power role we have.
Unvote: sundry
Vote: BillMC
I do see a little bit of scumminess in Inner Stickler's play, but I still find sundry a bit more likely to be scum.
Something of an aside - the Light side discussion is fuel for the Dark lynchers, but with intervening lynch and Night activity. I see that as a slightly pro-town mechanic (though come to think of it it's not all that different from a normal game).

I guess since neither of the other two candidates are gonna counterclaim sundry, natlaw or sister c. And bill seems to be mia despite wanting the day to end today.
Vote: BillMC

After a strangely drawn out day, the confused folk come to a conclusion, and turn, almost as one, to the shade of BillMC on the other side of the mirror.
"How do we do this?" One asks. Someone picks up a stick, across the mirror that doesn't reflect them, the stick lifts into the air as well. "like this I suppose?" The stick is brought heavily down on BillMC's head. As it cracks open silvery ooze flows out of his skull, his fingers lengthen into talons and his teeth into fangs.
BillMC the dark hunter, has been killed
As BillMC falls, redskeezix lurches. His eyes roll into the back of his head, and blood leaks from the side of his mouth. A necklace with an arcane symbol falls out from under his shirt. Redskeezix, the light diviner died from the shock of a link severed by death.
Vote Count:
BillMC (4): Totallost, texcat, parzival, redskeezix Natlaw (1): Meeko
sorry for my absence, I've been really busy lately. trying to recall questions from my readthrough.
No one receives any information about being severed. Not being able to vote for half of the players is a feature not a bug.

Wow. Um. That's pretty sweet. Set the bar pretty high for us night peeps, didn't yah! Sorry about the cranky suspicion Red. I wonder if the hunter on the other side is tied to SisC?

Boggle. Kind of glad I'm not dead, I guess though like Ulla I'm out of town with sporadic web access.
So I guess it's time for we Nightsiders to make some decisions about the Daysiders.

Hooray! We lynched a Hunter!
Boo! We lost a Diviner!
I suppose there's much worse that could have happened.
I don't know if the Night/Day Light/Dark confusion is a bug or a feature. Do we Lightside folks glow at night?

Alright guys I apologize. I really hate to do this but a combination of factors have pushed my hand.
1) people are taking way too long with their night actions 2) this game really should be 12v12 to work at all 3) even at 12v12 after day one I can see that it's just too random
That in mind I'm just going to cancel it now. The alpha served it's purpose. If I revisit this I'm going to have do some serious revamping.
I will leave a 24 hour gap before posting spoilers if someone really really really wants to finish this off.

So how would it work with 12? Are there doubles of roles? The thing said no victims so would there just be more hunters and splitters?

Too bad My guess would Meeko or pedescribe is the Light Hunter (based on the votes, might be Parzival)? Perhaps you can fix the randomness with more: any role could be the scum? Perhaps make the Shivers 'link blockers' who only disconnect two people for one Night?

Having the shivers only block links for one Night kind of presents problems with the way the Diviners work, though, doesn't it? I don't know.
Sorry things didn't work out, and I'm really sorry for my role-name error. I wish I could tell you what I'd been thinking, but I don't honestly think I was.

here are my notes. Yeah I know they're confusing
3 pedescribe shiver l 12 sundry shiver d 5 Total Lost hunter l 4 BillMC hunter d 2 Texcat shine l 7 Natlaw gloom d 10 redskeezix diviner l 11 sister coyote diviner d 6 parzival victim l 1 meeko victim l 8 mhaye victim d 9 inner stickler victim d
light 3 5 7 2 8 10 4 6 11 1 9
Dark 12 4 7 11 8 9
Total lost hunter is linked to natlaw gloom Texcat shine is linked to mhaye victim redskeezix diviner is linked to BillMC hunter parzival victim is linked to sister coyote diviner meeko victim is linked to inner stickler victim

Total Lost is the other hunter?! I never would have guessed after she started the voting for BillMc.

That in mind I'm just going to cancel it now. The alpha served it's purpose. If I revisit this I'm going to have do some serious revamping. I think the game going over the Winter Holidays didn't help either. FWIW I was VT. And I am still confused as hell with the premise. I mean, it's one thing to have stuff to work with, and to find your way in the game by using Night actions. Here I was, having no handles on anything, VT are usually not as invested in ANY mafia game to begin with, and frankly, the set up here made the little investment I could have even harder to get. Just throwing this out here, and it just came to me just now : I think the mechanic can be saved, but can we use regular traditional role names next time? Would remove one layer of confusion, and might be enough to save it, if it can be saved.

I do have a game idea I can put up tommorow, if you guys would want that.
Then again, its a Feud Mafia Hybrid, and can only take 6 players total.

I'd like that - sounds like fun I would have to notice updates to threads faster than this, if I were to put it up. Then again, I'm not sure how official things are for it yet. That is, if I KNEW I was hosting a game, my responses would be better. Who do I need to talk to, to make this happen over here? I don't know the "" Twickster "" over here. And again, my idea is a beta test idea as well, but I have seen it successfully demonstrated before.

For Mini games the rule is generally first come first served. Anything with 12 players or less is considered a mini so...I say start that bad boy up.
I might even have time to play.

I will need to look things over, but I think this might happen.
As always, I got tons of things to do "tomorrow", that stay that way.
