Hey b.t. you know it is scum that is looking for brains, right?
I need ksen to post so I know what this means. If he's tea party he may not have known that zombies are town.

I'll be back before nightfall as long as I can work out when that is.

Praying for her vote rationale on VOFM - ''I'm vanilla town'' is a bit of a TR in joke so I find it a bit suspicious that she would vote for VOFM (th1nk3r) because of that.

Def for his tentative crapshoot post.


It is, since when?

Still time to explain yourself, ksen.

I hate lynching town.

I don't know about TR, but people do declare "I'm Town" or "vanilla Town" on the first day of the RatSkep games I've played. And it is in a jokey way, because of course there's no reason to believe anyone on the first day. That doesn't raise my suspicion at all.

Def's "crap shoot" remark doesn't make me suspicious, either. I've certainly said the same sort of thing (because it's true, after all).

I'm staying with my vote unless ksen has a reasonable explanation.
It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me, but it can keep him from lynching me, and I think that's pretty important.

I can't spell. What typo?

ksen needs to front up.

The typo is the missing word "win." Mine was worded differently anyway, so they weren't mass produced. But that was a clever and townish attempt, in my opinion, at least on the face of it.

Thanks for pointing that out. I did notice the missing word but skipped over it as I'm apt to do.

Actually my win condition is worded unusually, with no mention of scum. Every effort has been made to make each unique.

I've been known to have paranoid fantasies run amok - ha! - during games, but usually keep them to myself for a long time to avoid humiliation (which is a good, thing, because they're often may off the mark).

I'm going to play differently here because the protocol seems to require openness (to allow the other players to judge intent and whatnot), and also because there are so few players in this particular game.

So here goes: I really think the key to the whole thing is the "fine line" concept. Maybe there's a Fifth Column that both Zombies and Tea Partiers should be worrying about. Though where that gets us at this point, I have no idea. And obviously, it could just be that old paranoid thing. I can't help thinking it, though.

Edit for punctuation, typo:

I've been known to have paranoid fantasies run amok - ha! - during games, but usually keep them to myself for a long time to avoid humiliation (which is a good thing, because they're often WAY off the mark).

Come to think of it a win condition with no mention of scum could be significant.

My win condition doesn't mention Scum, either. Curiouser and curiouser.

I've very sorry mod and players. I meant to make a new post with my correction, but somehow ended up editing the post instead. I know that's against the rules. I think I'll just leave my lesser typos from now on. Sorry again.

It's curious because VoFW clearly mentions scum in his.

True for mine as well. It's too bad we've such a small pool of players this game, since I think zigmen has tossed some interestingtwists into it.

I really would like to hear from ksen.

The number of players would tend to indicate that this is a 2 team game unless the GM's have gone special crazy .
