Somehow, I don't see anything dramatic going on until zeriel is lynched.
Most of my next posts are going to depend on the result, although I will probably be insufferable for a while if he is scum. ;D

If there's really not going to be any action in the next three hours, I can end the Day early, if folks would like. It's up to you all, this time, though, since I won't be leaving work until the normal time and can wait until 5 on the nose if everyone would prefer.

And Atarus, come on man, Just because someone asks a lot of questions doesn't make them more or less "townie". The part that gets me is that everyone ELSE has stopped asking questions, but not him. This makes me think people understand the issue, so why's he harping on it. The Questions themselves don't show intent, dude; they just show what the asker wants to show the rest of us, by asking said Qs.... Well in all honesty, not many people have even asked questions about it to begin with. In fact, I think only CatinaSuit and Klutz have even made any attempt to fully understand what the Nexus-9's capabilities are. We know from the introductory color that the Nexus-9 is a part of the scum group somehow. I don't think it's wrong of me to put a notch in the townie column for somebody who's interested in trying to figure out the specifics of what we're up against. Quick question for you atarus. Why are you expecting the replicants to know the information that you did? From what you said I would guess the only people who would know about the active/inactive state were you and the original scientists and not the replicants themselves. What do you think? I'm guessing the Nexus-9 knows what its own capabilities are in terms of the active and inactive states. I don't think any general Replicant would have the knowledge about the Nexus-9, so any specifics would have had to been conveyed to the rogue Replicants by the Nexus-9 itself through communication or something. --- As for storyteller's response when I asked for clarification, I have no reason to think that what I know about the Nexus-9 is everything there is to know about it. I have no idea what the processes are for how it activates and such. So there you go.

I guess we can agree to disagree then. ;D As for end of day, not fussed.

I was going to say hold off on the Day end in case someone wanted to post something of pertinence, but I guess with the ability to night strategy the end of Day is not a crucial cut-off - most anything that people would have said they'll still get a chance to say.
(I thought of this after my own demise in Firefly. I expected to die that Night or claim the next Day, so I wanted to give a list of my targets to that point. But I waited until about a half-hour before the Day ended so it wouldn't be a distraction. Turns out I died right after that, so it was useful to hold until the deadline. I'm guessing in a case like that the mod might allow a dying request.)
I'm fine with ending it early myself (in case you're looking for a majority opinion).

Can you define what qualifies as attempting to fully understand the Nexus-9 capabilities and what that might look like? Because I'm certainly trying to do so, but there's this rather large issue of not necessarily being able to trust any information/perspective being provided by other players on the topic. Also, not having any references at all to the Nexus-9 in my PM, I don't have the opportunity to pursue private clarification on the matter from the Mod.

I guess I just expected more questions and more discussion about the Nexus-9's existence. From my perspective, it looked like people processed my roleclaim and information, went "huh, ok" and that was that. The fact is, from the intro color we know that the rogue Replicants are uniquely specialized in some way, and the information I gave on the Nexus-9 is the only information we have so far on said unique specializations. We know from NAF that the Replicants are resistant to night-kills, but that's all Replicants not just rogue. My information is specific about the Nexus-9. The way I see it, people that are actively questioning about the Nexus-9 and freely discussing it get a check in the townie column, for the rogue Replicants might want to gloss over this type of discussion or avoid it all together if they don't want to accidentally give away something only a rogue Replicant would know for certain. That's just my opinion, though.

All systems normal, and no change in the vote count. zeriel's trip to the chair will commence in twenty seven minutes, give or take.

That's just my opinion, though. What bothers me is that your info is only of real use in the case where the replicant is investigated. Seeing as the Blade Runner and Neuromancer are both dead, does this info have any further meaning to the town. The answer is probably not. Does it have meaning to the Nexus-9. It may do depending on what was in their PM. That is why I think the continued asking of questions by Captain Klutz is suspicious.
