I think that the "mass block" was due to Pizza and the announcement that he was super charged. How is that? Pizza never claimed any sort of blocking ability as far as I am aware, so why would he gain one as a result of being super charged?

I think that Colby is saying that Someone was scared, and threw a Massive Block on everyone to try and stop whatever Pizza and Gang were planning.....Of course that's silly because they'll just do it toNight? I think the Massive Block was a Gastard mind trick to get us all muddled up.

No, I think you're misinterpreting colby.
I think what colby is saying is that:
1) pizza announced Bill had indeed supercharged him. 2) Scum wanted to prevent pizza's action 3) ergo, Scum dropped the mega-ultra-No Night Action bomb and killed Bill, just in case.
Now, I have questions about why, that being the case, neither pizza nor colby was killed, though I acknowledge Scum may be keeping those two in particular alive for the WiFoM factor and for the hope they can push a lynch case on either.

It is an odd set of circumstances, but I don't see a clear Occam's Razor approach to trying to ferret out what may have happened. Unstoppable kill maybe? Possibly. I looked back at all of the claims so far, because I seemed to recall someone having an unblockable kill. I was not quite correct; though Mahaloth claimed a one-shot kill that can't be protected against, and crys claimed that his bite attempts cannot be blocked. So an unblockable kill is plausible, at least. It would seem that crys' claim of her bites being unblockable has received a soft confirmation, at least. i've got a virus. if that helps at all. Peekercpa is a good choice for crys given her win-con and peekercpa's claim that he cannot be permanently killed.

1) Shattered Frozen Body (Inner Stickler, vig)
peekercpa - Night One Scathach - Night Two Parcival - Night Three
2) Brains Leaking From Ears
peekercpa - Night One KidVermicious - Night Three
3) Body Sliced Open Neck to Groin
wombat99 - NIght Two
4) can of shark repellant shoved into mouth
wombat99 - Night Two

Given that we haven't seen a repeat [yet], I think it's possible the Day Kill was a one-shot.

Peekercpa is a good choice for crys given her win-con and peekercpa's claim that he cannot be permanently killed. <snipped> i absolutely agree. regardless of what you fine folks think i am working for a town win although that does not include me winning, unfortunately. but the attitude that some folks are exhibiting is a trifle unsettling, to say the least. it seems like irritated scum to me. or third parties that can't win with town. whathteheckeva.

(No, I'm not.) ok. is this a soft claim that you have the ability to coordinate attacks from space? i mean we are in space. so i think you just tipped your hand. and apparantly based on your post i am the only one grounded. maybe that's why i am unkillable. oh, and the fact that i am ironman. seriously, kill me and you will find out.

Speaking of crys... Did you bite anyone last Night? On a related note: did anyone get infected with a virus last Night? Or on Night 1? And while we're on the subject of 'possibly bad things happening to people', has anyone been cursed recently? guiri was cursed on Night 1 and Jan reported being cursed on Night 2 (though she may have been lying about it). Yes I did bite someone last night (peeker) and on night 1 I bit dizzy Sent from my SCH-I405 using proboards

No, peeker, it was a reference to Aliens:
"We have to nuke them from orbit. It's the only way to be sure."
Because of how much firepower took you out on Night One.

You wake up this morning with the sniffles and a bad cough. Nothing you haven't had before.
You are infected with a virus.

Because of how much firepower took you out on Night One. i took out firepower? how do you figure? and nuke them from orbit? how'd that work out? near as i can tell she still had to kick some ass to live. and in the end she was just an incubator for the durn vermine. so unless you are are suggesting i am ash for the life of me i don't get it. i like to think of myself as a much more buff dallas (in your ear story).

It occurs to me that the lynchings have all resulted in a different death. End of Day One Mahaloth was thrown out the air lock, End of Day Two Pleonast was incinerated, and End of Day Four silverjan was tossed into a vat of acid (there was no lynch Day Three since JustBeingGinger was unlynchable).
So it might be reasonable that each Scum kill results in a different death.
Night One
peekercpa - shattered frozen body - Inner Stickler peekercpa - leaking brains - ?? peekercpa - decapitation
Day Two
Guiri - stabbed in back - ??
Night Two
Scathach - shattered frozen body - Inner Stickler wombat99 - body slice open wombat99 - shark repellent in mouth
Night Three
Parcival - shattered frozen body - Inner Stickler KidVermicious - leaking brains - ??
Night Four
BillMc - peacefully went to sleep
If a Scum kill is a different death each time, then the leaking brains kills are not Scum, maybe the merc?
It seems reasonable to assume that one of the two killings of wombat99 was not Scum (why use two kills on the same player?).
Is it reasonable to assume that the stab in the back was not Scum since it happened at Day?
This would leave
leaking brains stab in back and either body sliced open or shark repellent in mouth
for three killers beyond Town lynch, Scum kills, and Town vig.

Hey! Mr. Pickens and my grandpa were apparently friends back in the day. I really really really wish my dad and his dad had had a closer relationship. Even though he had passed away before I was born, the dude led a fascinating life by what few accounts were passed along, and ran with some interesting crowds. I wish I had more stories.

Is it reasonable to assume that the stab in the back was not Scum since it happened at Day? Honestly? In this game and at this point no, I don't think it is. Especially since guiri was the Doc. It is unusual for Scum to have a Day Kill -- hell, it's unusual for any faction to have a Day Kill -- but has anything about this game struck you as "usual"?

This would leave leaking brains stab in back and either body sliced open or shark repellent in mouth for three killers beyond Town lynch, Scum kills, and Town vig. While I agree with some of you conjecture, my (often poorly remembered, but remembered enough) experiences playing with this here mob of mafia misanthropes leads me not to buy some of it. For example, in the original Arkham game, Shark Repellant was a meaningless prop. This would be (at least?) the second iteration of a Gastardly homage to the original utility belt from which the Shark Repellant first sprung, and I honestly don't remember if the 2nd time around the item(s) were not just meaningless props, but I am currently putting the Shark Repellent squarely in the column of 'Possible Red Herring'. Also, I'm inclined to kinda lump all knives and slices and things that can be associated with blades of any kind into one category, possibly a blade-wielding killer or even a sword that could be passed from player to player within a faction as a tool with which to perform kills. And lastly, I would keep a clear line of demarcation between that level of correlation of kill color and what it might mean to the game. Forensic analysis of Night and Day kills: kosher. But trying to do analysis based on lynch color: not-so-kosher. The exception being Ginger but only in so far as the color was the medium of communicating that she was indeed unlynchable as she claimed, at least once.
