Yes, shaggy, that would also be magic bagging, but again the point is that the magic bag is used to get the rest to do nothing (no masons reveal or no lynch). The difference with Zeriel not telling his power are that he didn't use that to sway the towns opinion on him and that he mentioned it didn't affect the masons, so there was no point in him telling it. He was hidden his power, not trying to pull a magic trick. On rereading Day Two, it think your agitated defense was more caused by these different understanding of the the magic bag and the tracker role. I'll need to look again at the reasons why you were voted for Day One. It was mainly voting Zeriel for voting only one mason, while doing the same yourself and not saying why you picked him over the others. I found your explanation why not didn't vote MiteyMouse, but not yet why not Special Ed. Another discussion D2 was about aubby, again I need to look at the original reasons to vote, because the most of her Day Two talk got her more votes for posting 'stream of thought' style. The last interesting bit was the argument between KidVermicious and molefan. Not sure if there is a scum there, but noticed molefan has responded yet to this post from Pollux Pants ( side note: pick a name and stick with it ) and which I noted myself as well: molefan, can clarify you masons votes and how you thought special ed was trying to bus roxis?

netlaw The thing with ed was that at the time of day 1, he played so perfect for scum, by playing so town that almost no one would suspect him. If you look back any votes the guy got was because they were unsure which one was the scum, not because anyone actually was suspicious of the guy. So that is why I never voted him, cause dumb ass me bought the whole acting town like thing he did so perfectly scripted, hook line and sinker. Sad thing is, if you now look back, all the sign's were there, I was just so caught up in the mitey/zerial drama, that he coasted right by me. To sum up I was an idiot, I freely admit that.
And yes I agree, that is why if you reread my last post of the last day, I said to sinjin that i think our root problem is a dissagreement on how the game is played and is playing out. Which your right probably is my miss understanding on how the roles worked. I definetly can not argue with you, cause you are right.

Sweet merciful crap.
Unless something burly happens between now and tonight, I'm not going to vote Today, because I'm leaving for the week tomorrow.
If I were going to vote right now, it'd be 1) Molefan, 2) Aubby, 3) me.

Stop putting my a in Zeriels name and give him back his e you put in mine! I would think that the color would say something along the lines of "finding seeds around the body" or "finding plants growing from the body". It'd be plant-related, you wouldn't find stab wounds. True and no one blew up either, so probably there wasn't a bomb from Yoshi either, with the cave-at of course that it is color, not fact.

I don't suppose we will get any clues about Kat being hurt... Was it a failed kill? If so we might have even more killers than we thought. Maybe it was one of those powers that Parzival was supposed to amplify or something. What do you think Parzival? Since you asked, I sidekicked Rysto last night. So I bet he got a really good investigation result, not that it matters. The person I picked Night 1 is still alive, but I'm not sure if they received any effect from me. At least they haven't said anything about it yet. What happened to Kat could have been the result of being MHaye's target, or maybe a failed attack. Also, sinjin is female.

molefan, can clarify you masons votes and how you thought special ed was trying to bus roxis? That was just after Roxis accused - and, I think, voted? - Ed for making a false case against her. I thought at that time that Roxis' points were more valid than Ed's. I also thought that there was a bogus-looking movement to get Roxis lynched, and Ed was one part of that movement. I thought (and still do think) that Roxis' early "thinking out loud" showed apparently genuine confusion, which a scum wouldn't have. Pollux (not Hoopy, as I thought at the time) summarised the situation better than I did: The most important thing at that time seemed to me to get a mason voted up, both for information and pure odds - 1/3 is overwhelmingly likely to be better than the chances of hitting a scum with a near-random first day vote. Either we get a scum or give any lurking vigs a 1/2 shot (and a lot of good that did!) I voted Mitey first because Zeriel had said that she'd been the only one who hadn't encouraged outing the masons. Special Ed then, and later on the mason board posts, confirmed this, and at that point I would've put good money on Mitey being scum. Oh, and on the early rush of Zeriel votors: Aubby, Hal, Brokentree and KidV (changed from Mitey to Zeriel because Mitey was quick to post her role PM). I think it's highly likely there's at least one scum in that bunch. I'm least suspicious of Hal because his point (that the "T" in "town" was capitalized in Zeriel's PM) at least suggests he's on the lookout for possible scum-tells, although it doesn't exonerate him. I don't agree with that kind of reasoning in this kind of game (I remember one game - think it was Arkham Nights - where the mods caused mass-confusion by varying their role PMs somewhat) but it's characteristic enough of Hal as townie to the best of my recollection (Hal's never made that much of an impression on me regardless of what side he's on). Oh, and I agree with Nat about Pollux' name changes. Annoyingly confusing. At least Smurf is always Smurf!

I just Rysto's day two posts, and I can't find any breadcrumbs. I'm wondering what powers are causing Kat's headache, and my egg. I'm hoping my egg was sachortorte and I'll be free tomorrow.
I'm hoping the pace will pick up a little monday. I don't have any real good feels right now, but I might revisit sinjin and shaggys day one discussions.

What happened to Kat could have been the result of being MHaye's target, or maybe a failed attack. If it is, then either MHaye targetted one of the dead or no one at all on Night 1. I didn't get any PM, so I have no additional info that might shed light on what happened to me overnight.

If he is a Daykill Vig, why didn't he kill somebody on Day 1? Maybe I am misunderstanding the role. I seems like he would have killed Mitey or Ed during the day on day 1. He had a 50% failure rate, 100% failure if he was voted to first or second places (too much stress) and would also auto fail if he tried to kill the other masons. I knew that I didn't even think about it when I posted. Maybe I should post when I am more sober.

I just Rysto's day two posts, and I can't find any breadcrumbs. I found nothing either. I think it's pretty likely that your egg was sachertorte. Yoshi lays eggs and seeing as how sachertorte was part jailer, it makes sense. Though, you may be stuck in the egg for the rest of the game. Sinjin was a mad-bomber type in Marvel, and once she drained you, you were permanently drained. Bufftabby was a mad bomber in Gastard, and once she lolcatted you, you were permanently lolcatted. Re: Last night. Ouch! Three down and all useful power roles. Also Re: Last night. Apparently I took a dirt nap in the literal sense rather than the figurative one.

Besides which the mods said that Aubby was unable to vote "until further notice".

Okie dokie. How come I feel like I am reading Cantonese when I review this thread? Seriously, dirt, sidekicks and crumbs.
And this is a color question. I am familiar (to an extent) with Mario. Do those folks cross over into this universe as well?
I mean I hear Yoshi - which is the wise guy eating and egg shitting dinosaur looking creature. But most of the other folks must be of an alien race.
Hal I am looking to ewe for some intra generational confirmataion on the confusion issue. And if ewe can't respond immediately I udderly am totally down (it has to do with ducks - bunch of retards) with it.

You ended up riding this flappin horse all over creation, you caught fish and burried bugs. I just kind of went with the walk through. Oh, that's right there was this part where you had lead boots and trudged around like Bertha from J. High school.
Holy fuck, if not for marijuana Nintendo would be bankrupt.

Post by Pollux Oil on Feb 8, 2009 22:16:12 GMT -5
Speaking of your item, Pollux, I too tire of subtlety and codes. Is it a staff? Got it in one. Hmmm. Alrighty then. Not sure if there is a scum there, but noticed molefan has responded yet to this post from Pollux Pants ( side note: pick a name and stick with it ) Oh, and I agree with Nat about Pollux' name changes. Annoyingly confusing. At least Smurf is always Smurf! Geez, really? I changed my name before the game started to something funny I'd just seen on TV, but I kept my original name underneath my avatar. Now I switched it to part my original name (Pollux, which is what most people were using when they referred to me anyway) and part the switched name, and I put the rest back under my avatar. It's not like I switched my name to Bob Seymour Jehosaphat McBigPants Pancakeface the Third. But if it's that annoying I'll just keep it as is until I'm dead. Busting out the rolling-eyes smiley and everything, wow...I'm sorry. ---- So here's the deal. I don't want to magic bag, and after I posted asking about the lost something I figured I'd have to role claim so people would know what the crap is going on. What I do know is this: as a result of using my role's power last Night, I ended up with a staff, with the ambiguous message that maybe finding it's owner would help. It's useless to me, and to give the item to the owner I had to publicly do it in the thread. I thought about holding off and waiting and see if people wanted me to claim or not. But every way I thought of trying to enlighten the crowd without giving anything away basically would have resulted in you guys just having more questions and I probably would have had to claim eventually anyway. So..... *screen cuts to a panning view of yellow-tinted row of mushrooms* *the Who plays softly in the background* *camera dramatically cuts to a Hum-vee racing down a stretch of highway* *Hum-vee pulls up to crime scene tape and a red-and-blue-suited figure gets out, walking over to a tall blonde standing over a body* Mario: What's the situation? Blonde Cop: Toad by the name of Toadsworth. Blunt force trauma to the skull, looks like a murder. Mario: Any idea who he is? Blonde Cop: Seems like he was real famous for throwing parties. Cruise ships, amusement parks. Big celebrity, could have had lots of enemies. *Mario pauses in thought* Mario: Well it looks like somebody... *puts on his sunglasses and turns to the camera* Mario: ....didn't think he was a fun guy. *YEAAAAHHHHHHH* *CSI: Mushroom Kingdom credits roll**Editor's note: If this sequence has gone over your head, I direct you here and then here for shits and giggles. ----------------- I'm Mario and I'm the Town Coroner. Here's my role PM: There are ten body bags, each Night I can search one. What I expected out of my role was to learn what characters weren't in the game and maybe glean a couple clues as to what the set-up of the game is like. What I didn't expect was that apparently I also loot the corpses. Here's what I got last night: I got the staff in addition to the role PM. My thought process basically goes that since initially a scum was going to have the staff, that the person that's looking for it wouldn't be scum as then he could just ask the other scum about it. Of course...then I assume he'd still have to hand it off in public...but what's the point then? I dunno. My guess is that tdpatriots isn't scum, but he could be third-party still. So there you go. Unless anybody has a big argument against it, I'm going to hand off the staff to tdpats toDay. I'd also rather keep the knowledge I got from Night One a secret for now just in case.

Some quick comments while at work: Busting out the rolling-eyes smiley and everything, wow I just added it to indicate it was just a side note, but I guess the wink would have been better. The name change just a bit annoying for my notes (you started with senor, but were Pollux Oil in the player list/vote counts and then you changed it again). Then again since I subbed I shouldn't complain I guess. I like Pollux Pants for the alliteration , but generally will try to keep the name as people write it, including no capitalization and numbers - which usually reminds how me how livestock are named at large farms, eg Bertha97 for a cow of that year and thus seems a bit silly to me. Last comment included for peekers benefit. So there you go. Unless anybody has a big argument against it, I'm going to hand off the staff to tdpats toDay. I'd also rather keep the knowledge I got from Night One a secret for now just in case. Only if you think it does not have relevant info and we can risk losing it if you would get killed. On your role in general, the information gathering feels like a town power, but I can also see it as a way for SCUM to gain cover roles and as bonus a chance to out a power role. However with no vanilla death yet, it's starting to feel like a no vanilla game. I mean, why give the doomed masons extra powers if you could give them to vanillas? That would be me. I'm guessing it's some sort of protective role, since Night 1, I was in a pit, complete with air-holes. Did it mention the 'well intended' Hoopy Frood mentioned? Otherwise it could also be a role block (but you probably had notice of that, unless a block for you doesn't block your pokémon, which I doubt). This seems like a good time to post a vote count: Or subtly saying there is no mysterious triple vote for brokentree anymore. Not sure if that indicates that vote is a town power, but I would expect SCUM to use it all the time if they had it.

Besides which the mods said that Aubby was unable to vote "until further notice". True. But remember Nanook in Gastard was a jailer who was the bounty hunter for the serial killer. Those who were jailed were completely out of the game for a full cycle, which is far more restrictive than just not being able to vote. However, Nanook's death at the hands of the SK did release the person he was going to jail for the next cycle, something not happening here. But it's still fairly likely that the egg was sachertorte's doing, since he was a jailer.

What in the happy hell are you on about here? Now then, Pollux – am I reading this correctly? You got to investigate a role that isn’t in the game, but you still got to take an item from him? Even though this role was rejected? I’m not saying I don’t believe you – I just find that a little odd. Seems to me that if the role was written out of the game, then all parts of that role would be written out. *Well, obviously I get this one, and am still hoping to find a one-shot nightkill ability so I can respond in an appropriate manner.

Scratch that. As I think about it more, it makes sense just fine, and stashing items in with body bags makes Pollux's role even more interesting. Rather than just revealing who isn't here (is there really much to be gleaned from that info?), the role now provides a practical purpose. Hmmm...this begs the question -- do more bodies have things to share, or did Pollux luck out by hitting that one first try?
