hmmm ...

Oblivion's day four nightfall post wrt Aza: http://www.rationalia.com/forum/viewtop ... 45#p797145

Azathoth was Picknose currently in thrall to King Guttlecraw's army.

Re the part I've bolded, is this significant or just flavour talk?

The key is we win when "all threats to town are eliminated", Scum, SK or whatever.
The "and your band has been infiltrated" part makes me wonder if there is an elf that is a threat to town.

I agree with Feck ( http://www.rationalia.com/forum/viewtop ... 37#p797237 ) .. it's common for that to be included in the introduction to the game scenario, of any flavour. OTOH, I also think it's possible there's a traitor or some kind of recruitment going on.



A few questions for MSG...

MSG, why are you so certain that there's an SK in this game?

MSG, if your role is to be believed and you did protect a targetted player last night, why assume that player was targetted by an SK ... and not scum?

MSG, if that player was targetted by an SK, why was there no scum kill?

I'm not certain there's an SK, but there are 3 dead trolls and a dead don. In a 19-player game that suggests scum are all dead. But it could be 1 remaining troll (scum) and no SK: it really doesn't matter which at this point of the game, because either way they are most probably all on their own. Town's win condition is to eliminate all threats to Town, and we probably have just 1 more threat to eliminate.

Thanks for the reply, MSG. That penny dropped when I read Bolero's post above.

The number of remaining players is what has thrown me, but the fact that there were no kills last night does suggest there's only one threat left to town. It just seems too remarkable that there'd be only one threat left and eight elves remaining at this point.

Including two specials.

When a bandwagon was threatening around Linus on Day 3, he announced he had a 1-shot day kill, which he then used to take out zigmen, the scum role-blocker. It's hard not to see that as a town move when scum were already down 2 players, including the don.

You don't think it could have been an indie move?

[charlou]

Was the one shot day kill bestowed by the GM .. or was it a gift? I don't recall ...

[MSG]

Indie - idk? It sure doesn't seem anti-town. But ask Linus if you're not sure.

Re the day kill

On N1 I was given day kill. Zigmen and Charlou should role claim now, if they're specials.

Just so you know - it could've been you...

[charlou]

While looking through Linus's day 3 posts I came across this by DennyB again: http://rationalia.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 89#p795289

Denny, what were the circumstances of your one shot kill .. ie was it GM bestowed, or a gift? If you've already answered this question, can you link to your answer, please.

[charlou]

Linus, I see you've been looking in ...

I have the same question for you as for Denny: What were the circumstances of your one shot kill .. ie was it GM bestowed, or a gift? If you've already answered this question, can you link to your answer, please.

[Linus]

vote praying

[MSG]

reason?

[charlou]

Praying you voted MSG here, then followed that with a post answering a couple of his questions, then five minutes after you voted MSG, you posted this:

alright unvote

Praying the wording here is notable ... the 'alright' makes it look like you're responding to a cue ... but there were no posts from anyone else in the five minutes that you were posting ... what made you change your mind?

[MSG]

vote praying she's definitely not playing her town game imo

[MSG]

feck, did you get a view in with the divining rod?

[Feck]

It only works once , I'm curious if Irre gave another item to someone before her death ?
also MSG did you protect someone because I cannot understand why you are not dead , you have outed as the doc if I were scum you would have been my target of choice last night .
