I have engaged in offboard deliberation. I have watched this thread. I think my safest course is:
vote storyteller
The nice thing and the horrifying thing about this game is this: I feel I've already justified this vote to everyone who could reasonably be said to be "on my team", so I'm not going to bother doing so here.

And if there is such an investigator, what makes you think that various folk, such as the MotDD hasn;t been furnished with a valid cover name? I notice you still don't want to answer the question. If there's no investigator, you have nothing to fear, do you?

So I've been caught between both sides of this. I'm iffy on what I want to do. I thought and thought, and then decided to go with my gut and my smile. I'm a creature of chaos, well that and I don't like being strongarmed.

I notice you still don't want to answer the question. If there's no investigator, you have nothing to fear, do you? You appear to be pretty sure that there is, and that they will do as you ask. And I fully expect to be the target of your redirect tonight anyway.

Yes, I can feel the love and protection from "your group" when I am threatened with being day killed if I don't remove my vote from you. Sounds very much like gunboat diplomacy - we're protecting you, but if you don't do as we say we will shoot.

You have not been targeted, will not be targeted, not by one single negative power coming from the group of people with whom I am working. No one has voted for you; no one will. The comical thing is, you know this, and want everyone to think you don't. You want everyone to think you're part of some noble anti-alliance, when in reality you're entirely on board with the same group of people I am. You just want me, personally, gone (for God alone knows what reason). Anyone who genuinely believes that you're not part of the thing you're attacking is naive - but I would imagine they'll understand where your true loyalties lie when, despite your frantic protests, Day Four dawns and you are still alive.

Bill, I'll drop the thing about the role name if you can turn up two people who say they have a role claim from you. I don't even need to know what that claim is.
And talk about the pot calling the kettle black. What else am *I* being threatened with than death if I don't toe the line? One guy blocks me, one guy redirects me and one guy shoots to kill, am I right?
This discussion has been too one-sided; except for my suspicion of Bill as the MoDD, too focused on Story and me. Let's focus on Bill and Drain for a moment.
Bill especially is trying very, very hard to make it seem that if Storyteller is allowed to live, he and I will rampage through the rest of the game with no consideration for anyone else and no chance for anyone else to win. He's even lied about my own capability for self-protection to advance that image. But here's what the rest of you are faced with if Story and I *do* die:
Bill -- governor. For all of his outrage about me bucking the will of a small group of other players to redirect threats to my ally, he was perfectly happy to save Mahaloth yesterday, against the will of the vast majority of voting players.
Pinkies -- Chains, which includes the ability to roleblock.
Drain Bead -- another roleblocker. As such, possibly Chains herself, though it would have required her to have someone fake primary clanship for her. Regardless the roleblocker part is no secret.
Night redirector and/or night killer -- I don't know the identities here for certain, but I do know they are strongly aligned with Bill and Drain.
If Story and I are removed, who's going to stand against that block? One shot at the daykiller would be all it would take for them to take over the game completely. Thanks to Bill, not even lynches could be certain to remove them! Contrast that to me, who cannot do anything aggressive to anyone at all without help, and Story.
In terms of threat to take over the game without the consent of and regardless of the opposition of the rest of the players, the threat is not even CLOSE.
Furthermore, thanks to my alliance with Story having sucked up most of my time thus far, I do not have a great number of strong alliances. Absolutely anyone who wanted to work toward that goal and was willing to commit to it would stand a strong chance of going to end game with me, and this is even before the expected attrition along the way.
If you're currently uncertain about your vote; if you're concerned about the power block I mention above; if you're unhappy with the commitment or energy level of your current allies; or if you just plain want my role or Story's on your side instead of dead, talk to me.

Fortunately, my role is testable, and contains a power that is not listed in the Chain role PM.
If I live through toDay, nothing will happen during the Night.

Nope. I did suggest that folk not in your group should work together to counter the block vote that you all represent, however, the majority wished to continue to play as individuals, and that is something I totally respect. You seem to be implying that this is all some "Ed v Meeko" staged event, well if it is, can I have 25% of the pay per view royalties? I think at the moment it is 50/50 whether I see Day 4.

I am truly concerned about your block, Bill, and I'm not taking your word on anything right now as to what extent you're working together. I know many of you have close ties to one another that are pre-existing, whatever you say, and today's experience can only serve to bring you closer. The incentives for you to push the game on your own behalf are immense, and I can do the math as well as anyone else can: if Story and I are removed, there will be no check on the night powers your block can bring to bear. You'll be unopposed. And with you cooperating as well, not even the lynch will serve as a reliable check.

Bill, I'll drop the thing about the role name if you can turn up two people who say they have a role claim from you. There are at least 4 people who know my role. Wait, no, at least 5 since you know it as well. I don't even need to know what that claim is. Bill -- governor. For all of his outrage about me bucking the will of a small group of other players to redirect threats to my ally, he was perfectly happy to save Mahaloth yesterday, against the will of the vast majority of voting players. Wow - what revalation, should I hold the front page. As I stated in the Day discussions, I think keeping the DK/NK's in play makes sense. If they are gone, then it becomes a very long game. Yes I stopped Mahaloth's lynch - in return for something - something which I didn't get; coz Mahaloth is aligned with your little group. Night redirector and/or night killer -- I don't know the identities here for certain, but I do know they are strongly aligned with Bill and Drain. Worried that Blockey is no longer playing your game? [quote author=nphase board=ada thread=1377 post=64306 time=1276173487If you're currently uncertain about your vote; if you're concerned about the power block I mention above; if you're unhappy with the commitment or energy level of your current allies; or if you just plain want my role or Story's on your side instead of dead, talk to me.[/quote] Thank you Mr Obama. So on your side you have - Story "Chains" teller - You - night protector/redirector - the day redirector - the day killer - a doc - a vote charger (someone else, not pleo, gave story double votes) - one, possibly two investigators On my side: - me, myself and I - I'm third party, no one is on my side.

Ok first of all I'd like to apologise to everybody for not being active for the past seventy-two hours. I was in London, with Internet access, but unfortunately without the details (or passwords) of this forum.
Now looking back over the past few real-life days' worth of posts, I think it's safe to say that I no longer agree with Storyteller on certain issues. So without further ado...

Wait, no, at least 5 since you know it as well. I don't even need to know what that claim is. I'm not sure if you honestly misunderstand or are deliberately taking advantage of my ambiguity: what I want to know if you've claimed is a NAME. Have you? I agree, if they are not explicitly against me. This is fine, really -- what annoys me is the hypocrisy. Story and I are a huge threat because I've protected him twice, but you saving Mahaloth in exchange for something in return is just playing the game. REALLY? Just drop it, Bill, or admit to me in private it's all for effect so I can stop stressing about it, or something. I won't even tell anyone, if you do. It honestly bothers me. I'm annoyed, though not at all surprised, that he pretended he would. Thank you Mr Obama. So on your side you have - Story "Chains" teller - You - night protector/redirector - the day redirector - the day killer - a doc - a vote charger (someone else, not pleo, gave story double votes) - one, possibly two investigators [/quote] Someone gave story double votes where? The day killer and day redirector are not close allies of mine, and in any case to all appearances they constitute a block of their own. I can't contest it; I don't know of anyone else who can. If they are aiding "my" side for the day it is for their own reasons. Their combined power to kill whomever they wish is irrelevant to this discussion. I have no control over them, little influence with them, and no ability whatsoever to compel them to act in my interests. Nor does Story, for that matter. Compare that to what's currently aligned together at night, especially if Story and I are removed. Who can stand against the combo of roleblocker/redirector/killer and keep them from killing whomever *they* please? I could, somewhat. Story could, somewhat. But not if we're dead. Not if we have few allies because so many people have been fooled into thinking that *we* are the balance problem. I do not have infinite self-protect. That *would* be imbalanced. Everyone needs allies. Bill, Story is trying to convince me that what you say here is true, that you in fact have no strong allies and never did outside of the day killer pair. What then explains your huge hostility, your unceasing attempts to paint Story and/or me as threats to everyone else in the game, and all of this? You act like you have a very strong agenda, yet you and Story both assert that there is one, at least none that I can understand. I don't get it.
