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. From storyAnd you know the more I cut and copy the more I realize that anyone who has any suspicion of me has got to be scum or truly dumb as rocks townie. I just don't have this level of creativity. Alternate theory: the scum have been given an alternate identity, to cover their tracks. That has been done in at least one of the games around here (Batman, if I recall it correctly). That would'nt require an ounce of creativity on your part. And, like I said before, if someone steps forward and tells us about his/her Legacy infection, that would strengthen your claim quite a bit, wouldn't it?

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.... Care to elaborate publicaly. Cause I think I know where you are going but want to make sure.

Are you serious I can't keep up with the ones I have. Crud adding another just makes the icing thicker. Shoot I don't know how the virus infects. Gotta figure if I can cure then it is going to be silent. Otherwise, potentially a couple of hands are going to be waving. And I am totally unclear about how someone claiming an infection makes my role more "strengthen"ed. I'm screwed either way. A. Mutant I'm infected DC. Cure them beneficent peekerB. Mutant I'm infected DC Lynch peekerCripes, talk about military intelligence.

Nor can I see how Peeker's power could be used in an anti-town way. [[oog this is a very gender-confused game. Chucara and FCOD getting mistaken for ladies and me for a guy oog]]

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. Not to mention the fact that Peek might have a team of scum helping him out on these pms. I also don't believe he lacks creativity. It actually seems to be a strong suit. Peek, I don't think you should be offended people are still questioning you. If we could confirm town through pms, Story and Kat wouldn't have allowed them to be quoted. Voting for yourself would be as detrimental to town and Idle's day one shenanigans.

We might know (or not, as the case may be) if it's related to the Horsemen or if it's a PFK kind of deal 3. Like you said, it might help you to cure the mutants that are already infected

Trying to do the best for town and still being doubted sucks. You know it's kind of interesting. IT played Cecelia to a t. Now I play archangel to a t. Something to think about towners. And you are ultimately correct. I signed up for this game and whatever role I get randomnly assigned. I got a sucky one this time. Still don't mean that I can't keep fighting for the town. But I tell you this. For those that have a reason to vote for my ass, DO IT. If you see that I am telling the truth then let's get rid of someone else. But FCS can we move along. Purely selfish, I'm getting sick of typing on this BB.

I dunno, that seems like a false pair of dichotomies. Should you come up Town, peeker, I am all in favor of perusing the vote record, but it will take more than just 2 people to lynch you, and Town would want to look at *all* of those voters.

And furthermore.... wait... what?Look, peeker, I know you're very happy being the victim and complaining at all the fingers that are pointing at you, and so on. But still, you just accused, directly and firmly, another player. What's your evidence against her? (and, please, spare me the "playful" banter)

I have a request. Can we keep the inside jokes/comments to a minimum? Half the time I have no idea what is being talked about, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Referencing actions in other games is fine. Patterns developed over a series of games can be useful. However, we need to keep in mind not everyone has followed every game. If you are referencing another game please assume at least one person is not familiar with that game. Explain it in a way that said person will understand.

I played scum one time with the tabber. And to this day if we were not going for a shut out she was in like Flynn. Shit she did the same thing with the ceiling tile. Doing it again, as near as I can tell. Sorry DC that's the extent of it. [/Noplayfulbanter]

I don't think peeker is scum. The comparisons to Sinjin's pm just boggle my mind. Sinjin's posted PM flat out stated that she was anti-town. It's not the same thing at all.
At this point, we're all pretty sure Apocolypse is in the game, and is scum yes? I had a thought, and please let me know if I'm insane with it. What if Apocolypse is scum, but has an additional solo win, ala the Penquin in Batman? I'm thinking he can win with the scum in the normal manner, but also has a Mad Bomber win condition using the Legacy virus. (Which, incidentally, worries me since I was visited by him last night. I have not, however, been informed of any infection as of yet.) It would explain why peeker is a miller with his ability, since it's a fairly strong counter to Apoc's ability, and making him a miller would balance that out some.
Regarding AH's maybe slip, I don't think it's indicative of anything. A traditional jester, which you can find with a minimum of searching, does not preclude anyone else winning. Generally, the game continues for second place. The Terminator game jester was different from the norm in this way.

Gah. I leave for a freakin' day and you feebs are all goin' nuts.
peekercpa, I'm getting REAL sick of townies (if you are one) throwing themselves under the bus for no good reason. For chrissake, if you're going to be making allusions to previous games, mark them clearly.
I mean, you're not all that comprehensible at the best of times, man.

@ Z, and all other interested parties:
When peeker and I were scum together, I kept a low profile and was helpful in a very general way. Apparently he thinks I lack substance in this game as well. This clearly makes me a Horseman. I see a number of things wrong with this assertion, which I will gladly point out if need be. Until then. I'll just *sigh*.

CATINASUIT IS DOING HIS BEST UATA IMPRESSION AND WATCHING ALL. PEEKERCPA IS AMUSING ;D
Apologies all for lack of posting. Life/work is busy.
However A few thoughts on the Days so far.
1. The jumping on Idle Thoughts to begin with. Something I noticed which no-one else seems to have picked up on. When Idle Thoughts first claimed, Squid and sinjin both went after him, with Squid voting directly. However several people went after sinjin instead of Squid. I need to go back and look at that again.
2. Almost Human looks to have misunderstood the win condition. Personally, I think it is a bit of a null tell but YMMV.
3. I had a read of Pleonasts posts (Sorry to see you go Pleonast), but I can't find a breadcrumb in there.
4. Peekercpa. I think he got the fun role, however we only have his word for the Legacy Virus existing in the game. Some extra confirmation would be good, otherwise we might be inclined to think you were making it up.
I'll have some more thoughts when I get round to them.

Sorry, but this is not a world that I comfortable with. Next game can we do a derivative, interest rate swap and some sort of futures commodity hedge themed game. *I'm thinking that my Gold futures trump your Oil spot market position* We could have Golden Parachutes (parachute not shower buffer so don't get all worked up) coupled with stock buy backs and all sorts of ducats for the CEOs. Then I'll fucking know what you folks are talking about. GD. I so want to be Warren Buffett.

Diggit, this was what I was referring to. Peek accused Buffy of being scum, and I had no idea why. He is doing it based on prior games without explaining what those prior games reasons are. For someone who was not part of that game, I was completely clueless. I can respond to arguments without knowing what the basis for them are. Peek no amount of I'm too dumb/unknowledgeable to make a fake pm arguments are going to work with me and I generally consider them a waste of time. Even if you know nothing about the marvel universe it it is not too difficult to take a pm that says you infect people with the virus into one in which you cure people. I consider every player here capable of that.

And apparently now catching grief for not adequatetly splaining my posts. I just kind of assumed that folks kept current on these games (I read the ones that I am not even in) both here and on the Dope. And, on the hard five thing I truly could not believe that someone had never played Craps. And on the 45 handicapped scramble I truly could not wrap my head around that some folks did not understand the implications.
Maybe that's why story implored me to give this site another chance. You folks seriously need to get out of Arkansas.
