It seemed pretty clear to me that peeker's discussion of the 25% chance was entirely based on someone saying that the Legacy virus in canon affects 25% of mutants who are exposed to it, or something similar to that. And sorry about the quote within a quote that makes it harder to read. Off to poker so time is of the essence. Well, yeah it is clear to someone who is NOT pushing an agenda. On re-read, I see that you never explicitly said that your ability had a one in four chance of succeeding -- that was just how I interpreted one of your posts. Seriously, though, if you don't want to be misinterpreted like that can you try to be a little clearer.

Holy fuck. Anybody care to, you know, talk about the matter at hand? (And to think, it's me of all people who's saying this?) Which is...? No, srsly.

Yipes this is a tough crowd. I am typing real slow so that you can keep up. Rysto. Fucking Bastard is a lying no good mother goding piece of of dog doodle and must be hung to dry. Vote Peekpeek. Would you please read what I wrote. Rysto Oh shit. Sorry. Unvote PeekNimwit. Oh whoops, I meant to suggest an alignment that starts with S, Unvote AllVote Rysto

And I would have edited but you know....
I am going to throw myself on the Og altar. I should have never referred to Rysto as a nimwit.
That was personal sounding and should not be tolerated in these types of activities. Apologies to all.
Now, can we get serious and decide when we are going to lynch the idiot.

Just to add: I can post my night action responses if anyone cares. The information I gave earlier are the only facts, the rest is just flavour. Oh, I might add that I asked the mods whether night-killing counted as a night action for all scum. It does not. Finally, I think we should make it a definite "rule" that everyone votes. Not voting is scummy to me. I'd quite like to see them. Maybe the extra flavour won't help but it won't hurt to see it.

I'm also quite curious, Squidohol, why you're still so suspicious of peeker. I've been suspicious of him for a while now, but once he posted his role PM, that eased my mind quite a bit, because that PM sounds so real (tone, voice, word choice, etc). Does that PM sound fake to you? If not, then why so suspicious still? It doesn't sound totally fake, no... but it sure as hell sounds fake enough to ping my scum meter. After all, this is a no-vanilla game. All of the town have extra abilities: the scum need to have some spankin' ones themselves in order to balance that out (or have more than five players). One of the best pro-scum abilities (aside from a Godfather) is a scum roleblocker. Adding a claim of miller onto a good pro-scum role doesn't help peek's case. Peekerpa's roleclaim doesn't seem particularly more 'honest' than sinjin's, in terms of its syntax, word choice or tone, as well.

Kinda out of game. Kinda in game. Little background first. This whole internet, bb, cray sitting on desk stuff has happened after I was *cough cough* mature.
I've been getting to this site via a link in an e-mail that I just never deleted from Outlook. Everything is right with the world.
Go to post last night and e-mail is gone. Shoot that's right Outlook automatically clobbers anything six months or older (that's how it's set up in my org). Ok, bye bye game. Google a couple of mafia queries. Ain't getting anywhere (but, my Lord, is there a ton of hits or what). Resign self to saying good bye.
Oh screw it let's google "storyteller mafia". Voila, here I be again. And for the fucking whipper snappers that are going what a dumb ass well .... I just thought it was cool.
The things we can use this whole internet and google thing for the betterment of mankind are endless. My fear is that they could fall into the wrong hands which would create, potentially, a third term for Dub.
Yep, the vote for Rysto is feeling real good about now.

Adding a claim of miller onto a good pro-scum role doesn't help peek's case. <Snipped, I hope in a manner that makes some sense> So, in your opinion, the ability to protect against the Legacy virus is a "good pro-scum role". Sheesh, too bad it's not Borda 'cause vote 2 would be pretty damn simple. Matter of fact, I think you made it to 1b.

I must be a "Fucking Bastard...lying no good mother goding piece of of dog doodle [who] must be hung to dry" and a nimwit idiot as well, because I interpreted your ability claim the same way as rysto did, peeker. You'll note that you've got 124 posts, some of which are...quite creative, and liberal in their use of the English language, so the reader should perhaps be forgiven for an error or two in comprehension, rather than verbally accosted for said errors.

Okie Dokie. You've got more but who is counting, certainly not moi. And my vote is not merely for one post but for a feel for the game so far. I am getting some serious bad vibes from Rysto qnd squiddy. And Rysto I apologize. I should have never referenced you as idiot or nimwit. I know that this is a game. However, it is hard to determine how the written word comes off. In person you would know that it was meant to be humorous and communal - on the net, not so much. Extends olive branch. Don't mean that I am changing my vote or would expect you to.

The only stuff I know about Marvel is what I've learned since this game started but those geeks people who do know seemed to be familiar with the legacy virus.
Which makes me more inclined to believe Peeker than not. If he's lying he's taken a pretty big risk that nobody else could counter claim that power if it's so well known.
If he's telling the truth then I can't imagine a scenario where his power could be anti town.

Right now, I'm more keen on vote diggitcamara than anything else. It just seems to easy for scum to fly under the rader, and of those that have been under the microscope, none seems like a really good candidate.

Jesu Christo. One less Margarita and I could have had me some toad ass.
I sure hope toad is buffy because if it is santo, NAF or any of the other swinging dicks in this grope then there is not enough Listerine in the world.

Dunno if it's useful or not but it's interesting. Shame you can't follow them but at least we know two other characters that are definitely in the game. Apocalypse was likely anyway but Toad maybe not so likely.

If that happens can I have a copy of the video if I promise to provide you with copious amounts of mouthwash afterwards?

peeker, are you under the impression that I know anything about the Marvel universe? The only things I know I picked up from that 90's X-Men cartoon. Peeker is talking about the third paragraph of AH's post. You, Squidio, and myself are obviously able to "imagine a scenario where his (Peekers) power could be anti town". Having said that - do we trust Chucara? Because with her out, we can test Peeks power 6 ways from sunday toNight....

Peek,
You may have answered this and I missed it, but if you inject someone who is already infected will they be cured? Your pm doesn't seem clear on the issue.

If there's something I'm missing there, I'd like to see it, because that PM is what's keeping me from voting peeker right now. (I do see that hawkeye is asking him an excellent question right now). And if I understand you correctly, you're positing that peeker's claimed role is more akin to a roleblocker than, say, a specialized doctor? I'm not sure why you're comparing his PM to sinjin's in particular, though. I'm comparing his pm to my own Town pm. Why compare his pm to one (well, two--both of sinjin's) of which we don't even have a concept of its veracity? Why wouldn't you compare it to your own pm? Do you not have a Town pm of your own?

And that he's been given information about his counterpart (the protector) which he used to edit his own post. Facts: 1. He investigates as anti-town 2. He's somehow involved with the Legacy virus 3. He "attacks" players Questions to the town at large: 1. Has anyone been the recipient of a "failed attack"? 2. Has anyone been infected by the Legacy virus?

In fact, (if this link works correctly) this is the entirety of his contributions. Now, he may be busy, or otherwise uninclined to post, but as of right now, it feels like he's trying to fly just under the radar. I'd really really like to hear from diggit now that I've seen exactly what he's posted. Just to address this: sorry about my sub-par participation so far. I'm under a fair amount of stress at work, and playing in two games so far hasn't helped. I'm trying to pick up the pace.

Some will know more about the color than others. I seriously had not heard about any of the names until this game and I started to Wiki a bit (and those last three words coming from a 50 something feels really groovy). I mean I knew that there were X-Men. However, for me if was just the noise after Barney while I was cleaning up after breakfast.

Dude, it doesn't take much to change a PM of that sort. Of course, in some cases it might be harder, but your case in particular might show that some very simple changes could easily turn your information around.

[/quote] Another quote inside a quote but this one really chapped my butt. I told you I was going to quote pure from my PM's. I took out the names but that is it. I didn't like the statement that you are referring to. But I figured what the heck, unedited is the way to go. Maybe it means something. I'll tell you what this is a fucking distraction at this point. You numbskulls want to focus on a durn town miller to the detriment of the town. Give me a couple of hours and I am switching my vote to me. I have been totally open and have answered all questions so if that ain't good enough let's quit doing the circle jerk and get with the fucking stretching. That way when I show up town you can get on with the task at hand. Slackards.
