"HALP! DO NOT WANT!"
The players are awakened by the distressed cries of Kat being played over the loudspeakers, and rush as one to her room, but they soon discover that it's just a tape of her screaming. Poor, poor Kat herself has already gone to better pastures (or, perhaps, better sandboxes?), her mangled body crushed beneath a giant, Rube-Goldberg-esque mouse trap. A search of her room turns up a GPS device, enough tiny emitters to put the Department of Homeland Security to shame, and a small golden trinket whose engraving identifies it as a symbolic key to the city.
Accusative glares are leveled all around. Who murdered dear, sweet Kat?
It is now Day 5. With 19 alive, it takes 6 to start the countdown. The Day will end no later than August 28.

RIP, Kat. So, what, someone important to have a key to the city...

So long, Kat.
Her items bear out her tracker claim. I think the third item is a clue to the person's alignment. For instance, CiaS had a 'good citizenship' award, BlaM had a boy scout uniform, and Kat's key to the city might just have meant she was pro-town. That doesn't quite match up with Darth & Peaker (though the roles by their nature they suggest pro-town). One conclusion is that she was telling the truth about her non-result against The Dude.
So far, both scum have had the handbook on them, though anti-town Squidio did not (and isn't labeled as scum). I wonder a little bit about the '5 days' but I'm hoping it's just color.

I'm still trying to figure out why Nanook is still considered alive in the player's list after being soft-served. In fact, there are only 18 players who should be alive at this point, the 19 figure includes our supposedly dead Nanook.

Mr. Scummyboots, esq. would like to point out that the Day is going to end "no later than August 28", which is Thursday...that makes this a short Day.

So far, both scum have had the handbook on them, though anti-town Squidio did not (and isn't labeled as scum). I wonder a little bit about the '5 days' but I'm hoping it's just color. That's what I thought as well when I saw pedescribe's items. Seems like all the scum will have that book to identify their scummytude. What puzzled me was the lack of book from Squidio, but I think I've figured it out. If you'll notice, CatinaSuit had a Bible on him, and Squidio was a devil worshipper. My guess is Squiddio was hunting CatinaSuit and possible vice versa. When CatinaSuit showed up dead at the beginning of Day Two, I'm guessing either Squiddio's win condition was fulfilled or destroyed, so he just decided to blow up some random dude. If that's true, it lends some credence to the idea that maybe the roles in this game weren't randomly assigned. I mean, the two hockeys being Wonder Twins together, Dio trying to blow up CatinaSuit... I don't think the mods have indicated anywhere that the roles were random, did they? Moving on to pedescribe's death. I find it odd that the scum mad bomber didn't blow up when he was lynched. A scum bomber that doesn't blow up and a godfather that is able to be investigated. Something's odd about the scum in this game. Although it might be a delay...something might happen toDay possibly? The scum will know the conditions of pedescribe's explosion if there is one. So one thing that's up in the air is analyzing the voting from yesterDay. Since the scum would have known pedescribe's role, they could have just as easily been pushing the pedescribe wagon to get him lynched as well as being on the drainbead wagon. Finally, pedescribe came out with his leper claim on Day One. While it's possible he concocted the claim before he had a chance to talk with his scum buddies, it's also possible that the scum either can talk during the Day or were able to talk during Night Zero.

I'm still trying to figure out why Nanook is still considered alive in the player's list after being soft-served. In fact, there are only 18 players who should be alive at this point, the 19 figure includes our supposedly dead Nanook. Don't forget Boozeblood. Since koldenar's message about Pedescribe was right, I'm willing to believe the other one just might be as well (which said that the former Dio is still, somehow, in the game). For toDay, the things I'm thinking, personally, are: 1. Drain Bead, for all of her seemingly shady actions still could be scum...but with Pede turning out to be one (and the votes being so close yesterday) it's hard not to wager in thinking some people were trying to screw with the votes. I've played in enough games to see many instances of scum or scummy factions trying to save another person or mislynch by keeping the votes close. In yesterDay's voting, the last choice happened to be the scum, so, at least for me, that makes me lose some suspicioun over DB. 2. Duke is still an unknown. Sure he may be a Scotsman but if he is, that's entirely coincidental. He was never lynched or even had an attempted lynch. We know nothing about him and I was suspicious of him since Day Two. Add to the fact that he seems like he's not going to be around much anymore.... Is this because things are getting busy for him or for other reasons? He didn't really say. Duke what's starting up that makes you not able to play much anymore? 3. It's still hard to not be suspcious of anyone who is so proclaimed as the obvious innocent Townie, at least for me. Maybe it's just as it reads, yeah..and maybe a cigar is just a cigar....but this is a gastard game so I'm not keen on trusting much of anything. Anyone get anything today? What surprises are in store for today, I wonder? Heck, to be frank, I wouldn't be surprised if a flying turd named Xweetock came in and we had the option of petting him or not.

That's also the second time he's not posted using a restriction and hasn't seemed to get any punishment over it. This leads me to believe that it was like Diggit said and a self-appointed one (although from what I got from Diggit's posts, he was not talking about Duke when talking about this person whom he knew had a PR). Diggit said the person he DID know who put one on himself will apparently get something good from it....well, pardon me, then, if two people having self-appointed PRs seems shady to me. I can see a person getting something if they put a PR on themselves, but two? Seems that would throw the balance out majorly unless one of the PR people were good and one were on the bad side. Then again, as Pollux Oil pointed out, this game has hardly seemed very balanced in favor of the scum. Either there is a huge Town lean or the scum have to have something seriously powerful on their side to make up for it. I guess time will tell. But anyway, short day as the guy who wears weird shoes says. Oh, I'm sorry, Mr Scummyboots, Esq.. And so, right now, the best choice for my vote seems to be Duke, but I'm willing to wait to hear from him again as to why he suddenly has to seemingly leave us. To be honest, this game is so tangent-prone, I haven't really gotten any reads one way or another on a lot of people still. It's like everyone is still a question mark (with the exception of a few claimed roles).

Last time, I got a Clockwork Horse[/color]. Cool, right? Well, now I've got something else. I was given two options. A)keep this object, and risk having it discovered on my person. No thanks. B)Give it away on my first post. Given the nature of this item, I really don't freaking want it.
So: *Pulls Vivisecting Children for Dummies out of pocket, gives to the obviously innocent Townie, Santo Rugger[/color]*
Try not to get any pee on it.
Some details: I was given no indication of where this item came from, only that I clearly did not have it before this morning (duh...I think I would've noticed). I was warned that someone could find it in my room. Yeah, nobody would be inappropriately suspicious of me after that. That's all I know.
I am quite curious about the nature of the object, and where it may have come from, as well as the implication that there might be children around to be vivisected. If Josef Mengele is a role, I'm going to be very upset.

I will point out that he made his first reference to speaking with a Scottish accent before he got his role in the night 0 thread. (He made a William Wallace reference.) And then proceeded to speak in English after he confirmed receipt of his role for the rest of night 0. His accent didn't appear regularly until Day 1.

(snip) On that note, let me elaborate. My power is to listen in (during the Night) to conversations (i.e. messages) that players send to the mods. It's rather erratic and has (so far) only yielded information on two Nights. That's why I know that one of the players imposed a posting restriction on himself, in order to gain some extra power (and, funnily enough, I even got some information on that power as well). The second one... well, it's a short communication that our obviously "townie" Santo Rugger had with one of the mods. Am I allowed to edit my post, since I'm so obviously innocent, and would obviously never do it for malicious purposes? (note: I think he was the one who sent this message in. I don't get the author's name, but it seems pretty clear who wrote it). The quote isn't entirely damning. Still, my gut feeling is that Santo Rugger is a villain. Vote Santo Rugger

What puzzled me was the lack of book from Squidio, but I think I've figured it out. If you'll notice, CatinaSuit had a Bible on him, and Squidio was a devil worshipper. My guess is Squiddio was hunting CatinaSuit and possible vice versa. When CatinaSuit showed up dead at the beginning of Day Two, I'm guessing either Squiddio's win condition was fulfilled or destroyed, so he just decided to blow up some random dude. CatinaSuit's Bible is easily explained when you know that the King James Version is also known as the "Freemason's Bible". I think King James is also thought of as one of the founding fathers of Freemasonry. I had to think about it a bit, but wondered why the gagmods would have mentioned the specific version if not for a reason. What with a zombie cheerleader showing up, I'm wondering if Dio's continued participation (and possible win condition) has something to do with the dead bodies. Being a sort of demon, he may well have some sort of Lord of the Dead role. But again, that's a supreme distraction - we have no way of knowing or likely even controlling what might benefit him. Squidio, it appears, was anti-town (and therefore his elimination was(is?) necessary to win), but not part of the scum team. If the handbook thing bears out, items could prove someone is scum but not necessarily whether they're innocent. I do wonder about the Mad Bomber role (and pedescribe's apparently happy acceptance of his death). Again, it's not something we can control now.

Again, just the one kill last Night. I'm starting to doubt that we have a Serial Killer (or maybe they have only a chance of success).
I was half expecting an extra kill last Night: Pedescribe being the Bomb and his item "Theevilmidnightbomberwhatbombsatmidnight" sounds like an extra Night kill. But that didn't happen so I'm at a bit of a loss as to what a scum bomb might do. His role was "bomb" rather than "bomber", but now I'm wondering: has anyone been given a bomb?
Hmmm, probably don't answer that. But if you have been given a bomb, be aware that it could have been given to you by scum.

Nanook is now listed amongst the dead.
There are now 18 players in the "living" player list.
So either dotchan was mistaken in the number of players count or someone can affect the game beyond the grave.

I sent a message to the mods asking if I could edit my posts since everybody was going to know I was town anyway, and you're using that as a reason to vote for me. Seriously, WTF?
