mod question: since there are no post restrictions it seems to infringe upon my rights as a somewhat kind of something mafia player to not have access like other folks have. therefore, i hereby formally request access to any non main thread related forms/boards of communication. otherwise, i think we have a real civil rights access issue that DOJ may need to address before we continue. my lawer (well he's really just a large golden retriever that has taken on all the aspects of an attorney - eats, drinks and shits when he damn well pleases) and i await your immediate response

Actually, when I voted for Lightfoot, she WAS the main lynch wagon at the time (or became it soon after)... ..I then wasn't online much after that, so I couldn't have unvoted her to vote for anyone else. I've been pretty sick lately, doing most of my time sleeping every day for up to 17 hours a day. : / For that, I'm sorry. I should get a sub. Bummer you are sick but you voted because LightFoot was the lynch wagon? or for a better reason? correct me if I read that wrong Where, on God's green earth, did you get that from what I said? That's not only a huge leap, it's a gross (false) assumption. I voted for you because of the reasons I SAID I was voting for you (in the post that I voted for you). Now go back and read the post you quoted the right way, as I intended for it to be read: Someone said I wasn't voting for one of the main lynches at the end of Day. Me, I corrected him in saying that you WERE one of the main lynches at the time that I voted for you. How or why you're reading that as "I voted for her BECAUSE she was a main lynch", I have no idea, but it's scary.

@ Idle Looking at it today the sentence I wrote came out all wrong -on a few levels*. Hell I didn't even complete my thought. posting with migraine will be added to posting drunk as things to not do * And it didn't sound like it but I am genuinely sorry you have been ill.

Alright, so I haven't had even the small amount of time to check in that I thought I would. Not only that, but with a new development in other matters, it looks like I'm going to be pretty busy with long work hours for a while.
So, I've requested to be subbed out. Very sorry, guys; my absence so far has been unfair, and I still won't be able to do better if I stay in the game.

I am busy on my re-read and got to Lightfoot's claim: As they say at the card table… I’ll go all in. Arkham 2 Role PM « Message sent on Mar 2, 2012, 6:46pm » ________________________________________ Hey...It's going to be hard to learn a great many things about me, but one I'll give you for free... I am no one's son.----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to the game; you are RobinREAL NAME:: Jason Todd ALIGNMENT: Town GENERIC: Investigative WIN CONDITION: All Scum and PFK (if any) are neutralized. BACKGROUND: You are the second incarnation of the Bat-sidekick known to the criminal underworld as Robin. You're also the first to get beaten to death by the Joker. That was a hard thing to move past, but like the man said... you got better. For a while, you and Bruce had your difficulties getting along after that. Ultimately, you patched things up, though... after all, he's one of the good guys, and so are you. But Bruce is gone now, given up the field, and in his absence the freaks have proliferated. The streets, never safe, are now lethal, and the night belongs to guys like the Joker. But now, four years later, Batman is back. You don't know how. Who is it? Bruce, miraculously alive and treating you, again, like a stupid kid who doesn't deserve to know the full story? Grayson, Bruce's favorite? Drake, the choir boy? It doesn't matter, you suppose. Fighting crime alongside the guy in the black rubber suit is where you belong. Nothing to do but find him, and offer your help, whoever he is. Nothing to do but that. Or. Or you could not. Four four years you've watched the bad guys murder and steal and worse, unhindered and often even enabled by the supposedly honest citizens of the World's Worst City. Maybe this is just. Maybe this is how it ought to be. Maybe the freaks deserve to own Gotham - and stay there, apart from the decent people. And maybe Bruce, or whoever it is, and his parade of sycophants ought to leave well enough alone. Maybe Robin needs to find some new friends. POWERS:Once per Night, you may investigate a single target, and identify whether (s)he is Scum aligned. Your will be intensely focused on this question alone; you will be unable to identify third-party actors/PFK, if any cross your path. Be warned: certain rare, exceptionally devious targets may foul your analysis and produce deceiving results. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My power is worthless to Scum Third party/PFK if any don’t care what alignment anyone is. ( although I see where outing a Scum would give them Town cred) But it would be a lame power if that was the only one they had. I removed just the quote tags to make it easier to read I am still suspicious of Lightfoot. I mentioned this during the Day, but went on to other issues. Chronos posted in #536: The rules post also leaves open the possibility that a PFK might win with one or more other PFKs/third parties. But since we don't know of any such other people other than Pleo, probably he himself doesn't know whether he can win with any of them. Meanwhile, I have something else to add. Back when I was trying to get people to post an encoded piece of their PM? I do honestly think it's a good idea anyway, but I also have reason to believe that it would be even more effective this game. You see, I know what one of the cover roles is. In my role PM, Storyteller told me that if someone showed up claiming to be <redacted>, they're probably lying. If we can get most of the players to commit to their role PM before this Day is over, I'll say who the role is, and hopefully, we'll end up with one of the Scum being screwed (obviously it would be counterproductive for me to say who now, because if I did, the Scum would just not use that false claim). I remember someone saying that their first sentence was something generic that could apply to anyone. In that case, just pick the second sentence, or the third one, or whatever: Something that does apply specifically to your role. Lightfoot posted her anagram 2 days later: Oh, and since I don't see how it's going to change the planet Ffyyhwtbgmasawuaoeebtshcotwwc She later claims when I questioned her about it: [/color] The anagram looks OK, but it really has nothing to do with Robin. I'm quite sure that the anagrams were supposed to be a sentence that had to do with your character. That sentence could have been in almost anyone's PM. The longer it takes to see your PM, the more inclined we are to think that the scum team is back there scrambling trying to create one. Especially in light of the Penguin, I was willing to listen to lightfoot's explanation, but I am not thrilled with what I am hearing so far. [/quote] We were not asked to use a line specific to anything just any line from our role PM. Had the instructions been more specific I'm sure many would have used a different line[/quote] Now the original instructions were to post the first line, then they were revised to post any line specifically about your character. Lightfoot failed on both counts. Looking at her PM again, I suspect that what happened is that the first part of her PM is the true PM from Story. The second part after the OR is the fake PM that she used for the anagram.

One other thing of note was Meeko: How many full role* claims have we had? Anyone else feel that number is a tad too many? Suspiciously too many? I mean, if we have people who get heartburn over handshakes we should be in hysterics now, right? And now he thinks all 3rd party should claim??? Let me be quite clear: No More Claims!!Claims are just going to give the scum more exact targets for killing and recruiting. I'm still wondering about Pizza's claim. He had a few votes, but I would never have claimed in his position. And yeah, he left some breadcrumbs, but if he had alreadly decided on his fake role, that would make sense. Let's keep an eye on him. And there were no funny posts to note at all. This was the best we could do: And wouldn't you think that the Joker had planted it? Not unless something about it spoke to that hypothesis. Bomblike puzzle devices are not specifically Joker material. The device says ACME on it, so as far as I'm concerned, Wile E. Coyote is the most likely culprit.

There were a few more steps in the evolution of the acrostics. Might I suggest that you go back and review all of the acrostics that were posted and any qualifying statements about how the people selected what they were going to use. I'm pretty sure all of them are handily collected in Chronos' summary post.
You can suspect LightFoot, but using this as grounds to do so is quite dubious when you consider a) how late she was to the posting acrostics party, and b) how creative some people were in their descriptions of what they were selecting and c) that some people refused to post them at all.

The acrostic that I posted was one that tickled me the most, it was something about even the Joker wanted to keep his distance so I don't think that 1st lines or what not would indicate scum.

@ texcat reading my role PM what line would you have chosen from it?
First line identifies me as Robin. given the flavour of the masses that name= alignment at the time. and not knowing what the line was going to be used for- I chose that one. I am curious to read your response.

some quick thoughts:
1. i'm guessing there is limited recruitment so i'm not surprised Nanook can only do it once. of course we cannot assume that he is Town but it looks like he is. we'll see what happens to Mahaloth Tomorrow assuming Nanook targets him.
i'll further add that perhaps there might not be a PFK. the mod just wants us to think there is one. whatever the case may be, we have lynched two 3rd party players already.
2. while it is better to lynch 3rd party rather than town, this course really hurts scumhunting since voting for a 3rd party is a safe vote. we don't really get any info. i too didn't want to lynch Pleo. he was likely far from his wincon on D1 and he could have been a great tool for town. the only reason it provided info was because he took out Special Ed who happened to be scum. otherwise it would have been much different.
3. i'm still not sure about Lightfoot. seems her role still makes me think she is recruitable. 4. Meeko really parses things differently. i have a hard time following his train of thought at times but he seems like town.
