Carnivale Game Thread

[Morticia]

I have stated my reasons for both. Callan seems to have appeared jumped on a bw and left. GIb is too appeasing today compared to yesterday. Also Charlou, I didn't realize the game day had started when I was talking to OB in the PG.

The other weird thing is MZ analyzing himself in him own post

[Morticia]

I didn't catch that but I don't think it's that weird. Unless it's weird for MZ

[irretating]

Higgs that was a pretty lame response to being voted for. Just saying.

He's always done that. One person's weird is another's normal, so to speak

[oblivion]

gameday ends in 10 minutes. I am on the road and may not get home by then.

anyone have a vote count?

votes after nightfall will not count.

[Morticia]

I believe the vote count is
Morticia - 6
Higgs - 1
Ghat - 2
Callan - 2

[oblivion]

NIGHTFALL!

results in a few minutes...

[oblivion]

hold on

[oblivion]

You find Morticia over by the Spinning Jinny looking vacantly up at the sky. she just ain't been right and you know he must be a forty miler. You send her packing off the lot.



Morticia was Gabriel, the carnie strong man and Ruthie's son. He was vanilla town.

Night actions are due in approx 10.5 hours. Game Day 3 will start in 11. 5 hours.

[oblivion]

Today ain't starting out any better than yesterday.

You find Mononoke underneath a truck in a pool of blood. Looks like another Colt killing. It's no surprise that Ani is lying in that same pool.



Mononoke and Animavore were Alexandra and Caladonia Potter, conjoined twin acrobats and carnie masons who would both die if one of them were killed or recruited.

Don't Panic is substituting for Ghat/Google[bot].

sorry ani

[Callan]

They've recruited.
We're utterly fucked.

[Uselesstwit]

They might have been recruiting every night so far callan. but your statement makes an awful lot of assumptions. Are you thinking that the colt is the vig? That really could have been the scum kill and our vig was the garroter with only one shot. or taking out mono could have been the work of the vig and the scum nk was either blocked or their target was protected. There are a lot of things that could explain what happened last night besides the scum team recruiting rather than killing. With ani flipping town we have to consider that this is a recruiting game.

During the deep space 9 game oblivion ran over at tr I was the scum team recruiter. During that game, at least, the scum could kill and I could recruit every night. There were some very serious restrictions on the recruiting though. No specials, no masons, and the captain were all off limits. With ani saying he couldn't be recruited I'm guessing some of the same restrictions are in effect here. I think what we should look for is people whose play style has drastically changed over the course of a day. To me that would be:
gib - went from very agressive to very very agreeable, after night 1
ghat - went from going off the hinges to comatose after night 1
charlou - was allowed to speak after night 1.

I'm still kind of buying charlou's role claim, it looks like oblivion is following very closely to the flavour for the role assignments so char kind of makes sense from what I've read. Also it would mean that she was a pseudo-special and probably not recruitable.
ghat can be explained by mafia burnout, and I know what it's like to have ani on your back and how frustrating that can be. What bugs me here is that his behavior reminds me a bit of MZ during the pirate game where he basically bailed after being recruited.
In my opinion if someone was recruited gib would be the most likely suspect so far.

That said, I still think callan and higgs are very likely to be scum also.
