Then she wins...although the game goes on and there are other winners. I could never live with myself if I had a game-ending Jester in my game. Also: the next change that Mallow will bring about is: Changing Mason's win condition to "All Town AND scum must be dead", Town's win condition to "All scum and PFK must be dead" and Scums win condition to "All PFK and Town must be dead" And then finally it would be (two Nights from now): Masons "Win as your own faction if both scum and Town are dead or win with Town when all scum are dead", Town "Win when all scum are dead", Scum "Win when your numbers equal or are more than the number of players who are not scum". The PFKs (IE zeriel, Mr Special Ed, and Chucara's) win conditions would always remain the same, though. Just for the record. I wanted three full Days/Nights of topsy turvy win condition changing though. (as I told Bufftabby in PM earlier).

Watching this game spoilered is cracking me up big-time.

Santo still hasn't revealed he's got a spiny on him, although I know he knows (since the PM was read). Interesting. Wonder what he's saving the info for?
I think HIDING the info actually has a chance of being seen scummy (later on when/if it comes out).

OH YEAH!
I suddenly remember what I've been meaning to tell all of you (but kept forgetting--Bufftabby, this is what I mentioned as "had something else to tell you but I forgot"): What FCOD (as Bowser: The Intimidator)'s power is.
Each Night, he gives me the names of two people. Person A and Person B.
Person A then gets a PM (during the Night, before Day starts) telling them that someone (although they're not told who) is intimidating them to vote for Person B..and that they MUST vote for Person B the next Day and keep their vote on them the entire length. They would also not be allowed to say anyone is intimidating them.

FCOD told me after Day started, by the way, that he never submitted his Night action because he wasn't here...although he also said that had he been, he wouldn't have used it (which is fine too).

This is very interesting:
Everyone is saying MiteyMouse was lying...either because she said she was vanilla Town or that she didn't have a "useful" power.
But what everyone is failing to remember (including MiteyMouse herself) is that that power was hidden. She didn't know about it...and her PM, indeed, said her power isn't very useful, however that was about the power she DID know about/WAS told about (the weather changing).
People are forgetting about that. They seem to be equating her saying her power is not useful to her HIDDEN power (which she just learned about), when in fact, the "not useful" was only talking about the power that she did know about.
Since she can't be held accountable for powers she didn't know about (hence the term: Hidden power), I don't understand why people are voting for her or saying she's lying.
Does that make sense to anybody?

To explain further, here is the PM Mitey got:
------------------------------------------------------ You are MALLOW.
You're the most fun loving character in the universe...but you are also subject to crying very easily at the drop of a hat.
You also have an uncanny power to control the weather...while it's not helpful in the game in the fact that it does anything useful, it WILL provide some fun and amusement. So...every Night you will PM what type of weather to create and that's the sort of weather that will dawn the next Day and that everyone will have to play in.
You are aligned with the Town.
You win when all the people who are aligned with Scum are dead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bolding mine.
See what I mean? The "not helpful" and "does anything useful" is talking about the weather changing power, NOT the power to change everyone's win conditions (which she didn't know about).
So why people are chastising her now or saying she's lying, I don't know. They're equating the "doesn't do anything useful" to the hidden power...which she's not lying about..she just didn't know about it.

Pedescribe, for post 260 in Day Two, deserves a MEDAL. He's got it and he didn't even get a half assed explanation (or any at all). Smart guy.

I can't believe NAF asked how long Rugger's hiatus was, and nobody made a dirty joke out of it. This is why people shouldn't lynch me; they *need* me in the game for that sort of thing.

I'm reading the scum boards right now. They REALLY don't believe MiteyMouse. They think she's a lying PFK.

Sounds like they're going to try to get her lynched Tomorrow...when they do, they're going to be in for a nasty surprise (mainly that she was telling the truth all that time and that they probably look like they pushed it too hard).

Thanks guys! Though, it didn't always feel like good work while I was doing it. I spent a lot of day one intimidated and frustrated, before saying, "screw it, let's see what telling the truth does." I certainly was not prepared to play a PFK who wanted to be killed. It was interesting for my first game as a player. Obviously, the claim and subsequent play worked because I'm here, but how do you think I handled it? What could I/should I have done better?
The other players kept insisting on a full claim if I wanted to "save myself," but I didn't want to save myself, I needed to be killed, and I think the perception that a player always wants to stay in the game, and will/should fight to stay in the game, threw everyone else off to some extent on this one.

Okay, so updates:
Zeriel is going to put a spiny on Almost Human. He's already got one on Santo, who also, by the way, hasn't said anything about it being on him for some reason.
Chucara wants to kill NAF for some reason only he knows...so unless he changes his mind, there goes the first Mason and there goes town learning about the Masons. I'm going to be having them only show up as "Mason" and nothing else, so I expect a lot of questions about their alignment...all of which I'm going to answer "I have already told you all I'm going to tell you."
Miteymouse wants it to rain tadpoles, which is fine, but everyone thinks the weather has a hand in saying what the win conditions are. It doesn't. So when she (probably) changes it back to a blizzard the next Day, the same results will not occur.
Hoopy wants to investigate Mitey, by the way..so he'll be told she's town. I wonder what he'll think now about Mr Special Ed (who he tried to investigate last Night and got an "inconclusive" report)?
FLOD again doesn't want to use his power.
Pedescribe is blocking Peekercpa (which does nothing since peek has no powers or Night actions).
Nanook is self-protecting...
...and...
.....THE SCUM are actually considering VOTING for Nanook! One vote on him already. That would be HIL-AR-IOUS...because if they go ahead with that vote, that will be the SECOND TIME there will only be one death in the morning (NAFs). Although if this happens the scum will know that there is another killer out there...but only scum would know (since a person died who they didn't pick).
Other people the scum are considering killing: FCOD, Kat, storyteller and even, for some odd reason, Rysto.
Imagine if they went with Rysto while Chucara went with NAF. Two Masons in one Night dead! That would really put the fear of God into the last one (KidV).

Well, another scum just voted for Nanook.
This means, again, only one death will show up in the morning and everyone ('cept the scum) will CONTINUE to think there's only one killer. And I don't see the scum volunteering the info that there are really two, you know? : )

Oh yeah, for Pollux Oil (since he wasn't in those mass messages I sent on Night One): The first Night there was only one kill because the SK (Chucara) and the scum both chose the same person (MHaye).

Hey all.
Looks like I am dead, but I am not sure why.
Anyone know what Chucara was thinking?
Oh and...can we have access to the scum boards if we promise not to post?

Chucara, by this time, must be starting to feel/think he's the only killer in the game, hahaha

Just so you know, Idle :
I refuse to open IE unless there's possible employment at stake.
I did have the Firefox IE tab installed, but when it updated to the latest version last week, it gave my PC a virus. So I uninstalled it.
Consequently, I don't know who's who.

As you'll all see soon, I have revealed yet another surprise this game has. All of you have gotten and know the full spoilers thus far, but I wanted to save one or two aspects of the game that I had planned so that even those who are dead will be surprised. ToDay and the next Day, you'll be seeing those surprises.* *And yes, I had these surprises planned from the start. The only thing I have changed, so far, in this game, was adding an extra changing win condition (which is a red herring anyway). I'm considering adding one more, but I don't know if I will yet (see the other topic in this forum). As for the Warp Pipe and the soon to be made "Minus World" forum, those things I had in mind from the start....and kept secret from even you deadies because I love the reactions of people when they learn of these new things.

I can see who's who running FF. It just doesn't show all of the colorful glowing stuff; it shows plain black text. You don't see anything?

I can see the text, but not the colour coding, because Idle has coded it using a facility that only works in IE. I don't use IE.
