Yeah, but that's only part of it. i assume you are referring to getting rid of the dragon dude and the chain gang, right? or is there something more you would like to share?

But as we need to remove the HOC's and the MODD you don't think that they might have a few killing roles amongst them...
Interesting how no one has said "oh damn I was wrong.... sorry to see you go" blah blah that happens in normal mafia... but this sure as hell isn't normal mafia....
I think it just tells us that there's at least one Day killer in our midst ... I would also consider it a possibilty that there could be a Day redirector too....
I have no inside knowledge of this and it's not an assumption I'm just trying to work on what "we" have in front of us and also what little experience I have of how these (well normal mafia) games work.

He wasn't in any clans so it is quite possible that no one is sorry to see him go from a game perspective, but I certainly hope he has a fun vacation.

What are you up to then, SisC? All's so very perfectly normal in my neck of the woods. *peers suspiciously* Actually, I was referring to all the behind-the-scenes machinations that I assume are going on. As to what I'm up to? In meatspace, I've reached the point where I really am going to start job hunting. Like, yesterday. Because this place is toxic.

Sure it's possible we have a redirector, but..what makes you bring that up and not that we might have a protector or a gardener or a professional fluffer? Are you aware of a kill that was directed at someone other than Idle?

Sadly my skills at joviality and sarcasm are , at the moment on the same level as my mafia skills so I stick to roles that I've seen before rather than making them up but I do get your point.
No I am not aware of any rediections of any kind but as there are Day actions available in this game... I don't see why they should just be restricted to killing roles.

Peek has been a Mason. But nobody ever talks about his stonecraft. Nobody ever talks about how he built the bridge we walked into to get into town. They never call him Peek the Bridge-Builder.
Peek has been a Doctor. But nobody ever talks about his ability to protect people from harm. No, nobody ever calls him Peek the Healer.
Peek has been a Cop. But nobody ever brings up how he patrolled the village every night, sussing out wrongdoers and keeping everyone safe. No, he's not Peek the Patrolman.
But you fuck ONE sheep...

Sorry for the delay, I was unexpectedly without internet.
When I typed that posts Ed hadn't claimed Lie detector yet I was actually told that he was a role cop so I assumed that it was true that there was someone else who was a lie detector. So my vote wasn't to kill the lie detector that I was trying to get information.
As for the second point what I was saying is that I assume the lie detector would use his power on Luv if Ed died, not knowing that he was the detector he spoke of, and I also figured that someone with a Night kill power would target Luv. So I figured either way since he'd made himself such a huge target the situation would be resolved one way or another come Dawn. I think our critical misunderstanding was Ed claiming to be the detector after my post.

Hey, mods? I just wanted to thank you for this game. I am having a ridiculous amount of fun. Thanks. A lot of effort went into making it. Provided things go well, we are considering running it again sometime. So anyone is welcome to add comments on things that can improve it for next time. (The number one thing we want is someway to allow threaded communication where all participants can be seen--e.g. like GMail and Facebook do, but in a way that doesn't require someone to be on Facebook or reveal private information they don't want to. We have thought about making everyone get a unique GMail account next time, but we'll entertain any other ideas. The PM thing gets to be a grind for everyone I think. The off-board message board thing works pretty well on the whole, though.)

There are less than 6 hours before Night actions are due.

Also, now that Idle is dead, if people want hidden message boards on site that shouldn't be a problem.

We do have one registered sub, who I've PM'd. However, the reason they took a sub slot is still a possible problem.
I've just posted on GB.
If you think Buff (or anyone who's not played in this game - resubbing someone in is out of the question) would be interested, ask them.

Standing offer to every player: if you have information that you believe would be useful to reveal to all, but are hesitant to do so yourself, I am willing to reveal that information without reference to the source, if you PM me with information and those instructions.
I have received some interesting information about some players that I think should be made public. However, my sources are not willing to disclose this info nor allow me to do so. I'm hoping that perhaps someone else can supply me with this (or similar) info and permission to reveal it.
When many of us share similar goals, it benefits us for some things to be made public so we can act together. While it is better for the original source to make such information available, in some cases information without attribution can be more useful than no info at all.

[OOG]Hello, all. I am directing a show, and this weekend I will be supervising our load in to the theatre (ie, set construction, costume fittings, and all manner of parties. After tonight, I will be around probably not at all until Monday at the earliest. I may have a chance tomorrow or Sunday to stop in and catch up on PMs, but it's possible that I won't. If you try to contact me between now and then, I'm not ignoring you.[/OOG]

When many of us share similar goals, it benefits us for some things to be made public so we can act together. While it is better for the original source to make such information available, in some cases information without attribution can be more useful than no info at all. goodness, I wish I'd thought of this. What a wonderful way to collect a boatload of information and be the only one knowing where all of it comes from. All while completely avoiding any accountability for what you're saying. And, of course, you'll have to trust him not to share where the information is coming from with all of the people with whom he's actually trying to win the game. So, let me one up the offer. If you want Pleo to share your information, but you don't want him to know who is doing the sharing, just PM me. Then I'll PM Pleo and he can post the information into the game thread! The preceeding was a little bit tongue in cheek. While I certainly encourage you to divuldge all of your secrets to me, I don't honestly expect you to. I as really only trying to point out the obvious drawback to sharing your secrets with Pleo. In all fairness, Pleo, this is very clever, but my recommendation is that if people have things they'd like to share, maybe just share it yourself or do so privately. And, in regards to my recommendation that people vote for you yesterDay, perhaps I was a bit over zealous. While I still disagree with your posting of the wincon and feel it was a foolhardy move. It probably isn't worthy of a vote. My only contention was that a person who was so loose with things better kept secret might continue to do so. While I flippantly suggested that undecided people vote for people who do things like what you did, I obviously didn't vote that way myself, and, in reality, don't feel it's the best course of action. Basically, it boils down to this: 1. People who are not in my primary clan are my enemy. However, 2. Only Chains and the Master are always going to be my enemy. Other are 'potential' future allies in the game, and certainly allies in hunting Chains and the Master. Thusly, 3. A vote for a well-suspected non-Chain, non-Master is probably not as well advised as a vote for a suspected Chain or Master, or even a possible Chain or Master, all things being equal. 4. That said, quite often, all things are not equal. Keep that in mind. I feel like I've rambled here.

Actually, that's a good idea, Ed. If someone trusts another player more than me, they're welcome to filter it through them. My goal is to make the information public--it's best if the source reveals it themself, but any solution that gets it to the public thread is good.
