Another Roosh quote (I won't say what number post it is): Message Board B AKA Post #II:Message V:Meh... screw it. SquiDio, you wanna dance, fine then. W! Show me what ya got! *edited to add: Dammit someone beat me to it.* -again, a Quote please-

Given that Roosh tried to call Boozahol's "bluff", I would say that they are not on the same team. So for the time being I'm putting Roosh in the Town column (presumably a devil worshipping torturer would count as scum).
Of course, Roosh may have seen Darth's post and then quickly done his own. The timings are: Start: Boozahol's "W" threat Twenty-three minutes later: Darth's "W" post Another eleven minutes later: Roosh's ETA to say "beat me to it". I can't tell when Roosh's "W" edit was done (damn - Roosh's restriction has led to the time line being muddied) Another twelve minutes later: Darth and Boozahol are killled
Hmmmm.

Removed the post numbers. These are easy to find, though. Boozahol Squid PI and Darth Sensitive are dead. In Darths room, the players find a cops badge, a magnifying glass, and a box of Memoprove. All right, so we know he had to have been a cop of sorts, but he seems to have incredibly bad memory. Possibly a restriction to what he finds out, much like my own role. Perhaps he gets a feeling for a person and forgets what their actual complete role was, thus tending towards alignment? In Boozahols room, the players find torture implements, a copy of "devil worship for dummies", and a copy of sun tzu's "art of war". Day is not over. After the flavor of the post, this isn't very surprising. He went to a better, much warmer place. *Takes off his hat and places it over his chest* Anyways, torture implements, Devil Worship, and... Sun Tzu's Art of War? Interesting. Guess he read it to his victims? Of course, I imagine everyone here is familiar with the text in question. The The Legendary Storyteller Addendum. While building the game, we decided that Daykilling a player is rude, so we're allowing DKd players a parting shot. Also found in Darths room, a journal entry: [journal] I'm a licensed detective, but can't even remember what force I work for. Or where my badge is. Or why the hell I'm here. Or where my little investigation notebook. The first night, I learned precisely nothing about squid boy as I slept in too late to do any real searching. Last night, I searched all about for info on that mole guy. I found some really good dirt on him too, and wrote it all down. But I misplaced my damn notebook again. Off to bed - hope I can track down that thing in the morning. Maybe I'll enlist that ransacker guy. [/journal] All right, this kind of proves that his role is certainly restricted. Its possible the cop is aligned with a group other than town, if his memory is so bad. There is no mention of a town certificate, for instance. However, we had a similar problem with peekercpa when we tore him apart (I still have the skull cup). Anyways, we have a few options regarding this: I: I can use my ability and find out more about our digging friend. The problem is that my role may only use that ability a limited number of times. II: We can lynch Mole, properly, and see what we find out from that. We would get the items through this method regardless, and hopefully an alignment, which would shed some light on his posts. He made several that could make for an interesting study, assuming he meant Molefan. (assuming he meant Molefan. He could be using the word 'mole' to denote a spy of sorts, but this seems more likely.) III: We ignore it all together, noting it for the future. We could also ask for a role-claim from Molefan, but I honestly never trusted roleclaims of any sort. There is nothing to stop a person from lying.

In poker there is, of course, no attempt to disguise the aggressive element. Poker is a fighting game, a game in which each player tries to get the better of every other player and does so by fair means or foul so long as he obeys the rules of the game. He may bluff or lie about his own strength, the object of the game being either to frighten the other players into believing that he has greater strength or else to prove it. --Karl Meninger Look, the weird poker comparisons are my job, thanks! Now onto more serious business. Had Darth investigated me (which BTW I have no confirmation of) he would indeed have found some "dirt". Since I have a certain level of protection against reprisals now, I'm going to post my role PM. Role: The Prophet Name: Col Walter E Kurtz Alignment: Town Win Condition: You win when all the evil scum and other anti-town elements are killed I have good news and I have bad news. The good news is that you are a millionaire ivory trader and demigod among your people. The bad news is that you are stuck in a dark hut in the heart of the Congo with a primitive tribe. You are THE PROPHET. This means you get to make predictions every night. What predictions? You'll find out soon enough. You'll receive a question about the following day. Just PM your friendly neighborhood great and glorious mod (MisterB in this case) the answer. If you get it right, your tribe will bring you a prize. What prize? Whatever the tribe can find lying around. They can find all kinds of things. They may not always work, but what the hell else are you gonna do? By the way, you can't kill. Sorry kiddo. You may have -------- but ----------. Also, you can't investigate. What, you want primitive tribesmen to run around searching for evidence? Oh, and one more thing... tribesmen can be pretty vicious to demigods who don't perform. OK, a couple of points. 1) Of the four role PMs that have been posted so far, Santo's PM said "mafia", mine said "scum", BlaM's and Duke's said "anti-town elements" only. I suspect that either we have different mods or, more likely, that there's some serious gastard moddery going on. 2) I've blanked out a small section that I don't want the scum to see. I can't stop you speculating about this, but I'm not answering any questions or confirming any theories, so don't bother asking. 3) Kurtz appeared in the film "Apocalypse now". I (and many other people here) were in the game "Mafia: Apocalypse". I've been trying to make something out of that but haven't been able to as yet. 4) Kurtz was famous for being long-winded, boring, and rather incomprehensible. Given Santo's point that some roles seemed to be "tailor-made" for some people, I'm not too sure how I feel about that. Now, regarding what I've done with my role so far. I'm not going to say what today's prediction was (it gives me some fairly obvious ideas as to what future predictions might be, which are also things the scum might anticipate and could use to block me fairly easily if they did.) But yesterday's prediction was post counts. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to quote a non-role PM or not (the Batman game specifically forbade it) so I won't. I was PM'd and told to predict the total number of posts from eight people, to within 15% accuracy. (I didn't need to predict each specific person, just their total posts.) I spent a fun hour or so going through the post counts of each person from the two previous games that I'd played. Duke (who I've not played with before) and Kat (who was on my "lurker" list in "Arkham Nights") I predicted too low. I also, while in a post-count-induced fugue, managed to somehow completely forget that Santo's SK role in "Arkham Nights" involved him having to post more times than the people he wanted to kill, so I went way too high with my guess for him. Happily, these three pretty much cancelled each other out, and I was fairly accurate with my predictions of all the rest. I also asked Santo to post a few times, not because I'd specifically predicted too high for him but because I felt he was the most likely out of the eight people I had to do it without asking too many questions. Sorry, Santo! Oh, and since some smart-arse is probably going to ask: Hoopy wasn't one of my predictions. I don't know whether the mods thought it would be unfair to include him or whether they picked randomly and his name simply didn't come up. I'm rather glad of that, though, considering that I would probably have put him second only to Santo in terms of numbers of posts. My prize for the first night's correct prediction was a 50% chance of night-kill immunity on one night that I choose. There's another pretty large limitation that, again, I don't think I should give the scum, since they could theoretically use it against me. I already know that I got the second day's prediction wrong, so no prize today. Also, I don't know what negative effects there are for getting one wrong yet. I guess I'll find out. I would speculate that if I get enough predictions wrong in a row, it might actually kill me - or at least result in my role being lost - but none of this is confirmed. I didn't use the night-kill immunity last night. Given that I had two votes on me at the start of night, I very much doubted that the scum would have killed me off. So that's pretty much it. Rajaat, Of your three options: I: I can use my ability and find out more about our digging friend. The problem is that my role may only use that ability a limited number of times. II: We can lynch Mole, properly, and see what we find out from that. We would get the items through this method regardless, and hopefully an alignment, which would shed some light on his posts. He made several that could make for an interesting study, assuming he meant Molefan. (assuming he meant Molefan. He could be using the word 'mole' to denote a spy of sorts, but this seems more likely.) III: We ignore it all together, noting it for the future. Personally, I'm not too fond of option 2. (What a huge surprise!) I don't want the town to waste a lynch or an investigation on me, and I'd much rather you use the investigation on one of my suspects. If it comes down to a choice between one or the other though, I suggest that you investigate me before the votes start rolling in. I would 100% rather be investigated than lynched.

He was *probably* in Heart of Darkness first, molefan. I know, I know, your point was about the apocalypse, but I was an English major, and old habits die hard, like Darth. Ouch! Maybe you could write a haiku about that, since I know you've got one coming.

Oh, FO SHO faux vote mole.[/color]
I'm more inclined to trust darth's journal/investigation than I am molefan's roleclaim. I understand the explanation of (paraphrase ahoy!) "Of course he found dirt on me, I have a scary-sounding role, but I'm town, so no worries", but I'm not ready to buy that bridge. Since it seems as though Darth was unable to remember details, I'm tending to believe in Rajaat's interpretation of "Perhaps he gets a feeling for a person and forgets what their actual complete role was, thus tending towards alignment?"
If he couldn't remember any details, why the hell would he feel that he had found "dirt" on molefan?

A number of players have quoted their (alleged) role PMs. I can't find the post where the mods said that this was allowed.
There was the following exchange on Night zero, beginning with post one hundred and eighty six:
Pleo asked "What's the policy on quoting PMs from the mods? "
NAaF replied "What policy?"
Pleo replied "The policy some mods have against quoting PMs. Which I dislike, along with other posting restrictions."
Then Mister-Blockey said "It has been noted that the quoting of pms, both role and otherwise is want to stifle creativity, blunt discussion, promote laziness, and cause long drawn out conversations on the placement of commas.
The Great and Glorious mods reserve long drawn out conversations on the placement of commas for themselves, and demand entertainment from you."
This does not seem to say that quoting role PMs is okay, and in fact appears to say the opposite. So was there any other clarification on this point?
