[playerlist] vegetables The Rev Owen Bluecup ComicalGnomes Sir Taxalot Dimrill Pundabaya Mr Dave Sheepeh nervouspete Dudley Joans craig Grim... JBR Gazchap Mr Chris Rodafowa LaceSensor richardgaywood [/playerlist] The village hall is abuzz with noise. All the villagers have assembled for an extraordinary council meeting - the sheriff has something to tell them all. Silence falls as the familiar portly figure of the sheriff mounts the dais at the front of the hall and calls for quiet. "I have received important information that everyone needs to hear" he begins. "We have enjoyed years of peace and quiet, and the opportunity to raise our families without needing to fear for our safety. It appears that all that might be at an end - for there are villains hiding amongst us! At the end of this meeting I will be arresting the following people for crimes against the people of this vill..." A shot rings out. A neat bullethole appears in the middle of the sherrif's forehead, and he drops to the ground, blood rapidly pooling around his corpse. There is uproar. The villagers are running from the room, screaming and wailing. No-one saw who took the shot. No-one knows who the sheriff was about to implicate. There are criminals in the town. It is Day 1. With 20 players alive, 11 votes are required to secure a lynch. Day 1 deadline is Thursday 9pm. |

I had an odd dream where the whole village was killed but he (Mr Dave) was left alive and laughing maniacally when I woke up. You'd have thought my own hanging one eighth of the way into the dream would have woken me up, but no. |

Ok, I'm going to assume that Craster has given out as many roles as possible, and also that there aren't quite as many mafia as last time (for fairness, somehow), and so with that being the case, I make the following speculation about specific numbers of characters: 3 Mafia Goon(s) 1 Mafia Roleblocker 1 Serial Killer 1 Cult leader 1 Tracker 1 Escaped Inmate 1 Asylum Guard 1 Voyeur 1 Vigilante 1 Doctor 1 Mad Scientist 6 Townies 1 Revered Prince So that's just 4 mafia and a SK to worry about, and the Vigilante, I suppose. He wants the town to win but will probably kill someone every day just because they can, dangerous stuff. |

But remember, as townies we're not arsed about identifying the convict, his hunter, the professor, or anyone else who isn't a direct opponent of the town. As an ex-mafia honcho I reckon I'll be able to spot one of my old kin immediately. So while I'm at it I might as well strenuously insist I'm not mafia, because I think that would be a bit too obvious (and dull for me) two games in a row. Similarly I'm not the serial killer, if I was I wouldn't really need to speculate about anything, I'd probably be mostly silent and just kill you all at night. Rest assured I'm on the town's side on this one, the question is did Craster give me an interesting role, or am I just a plain nonce this time around? My money's on nonce

We do, but a quick peek at the rules reveals that being the cult leader (let's call them 'Scientologist') seems fucking hard... Quote: You will fail if you attempt to recruit a Mafia member, the Serial Killer, the Asylum Guard, or the Escaped Inmate.

So, I'm suspicious of BlueCup, too. And the others who jumped straight on to the lynching bandwagon. Ack. I don't know. I'm going to wait a bit before voting I think. |

I dunno though, although it's early days to be condeming ComicalGnomes, on the first turn there isn't very much information to go on. As Craster said, the best thing to do is almost pick someone at random. Damn, this is hard! |

I'm struggling to know how to play it this time around. It was pretty obvious that I would be one of the first to go last time (as 'known' people will always go first), so I just told the truth, which didn't help at all. I've got a horrible feeling that whatever I say, I'll die, so fuck it: I AM THE SCIENTIST I'm not a massive advantage to either side. |

It's a shame there's no cop in this one, because my tactic for that would be to reveal myself instantly. Why? Well, I'd just say 'I'M THE COP, SO DOCTOR, WHOEVER YOU ARE, PROTECT ME'. Nobody will lynch him, the doc will protect him, and the chances of the doc dying early are very small, so you'd get at least a few days worth of useful info you could share with people. If you found a mafia guy, you'd lynch him immediately and it'd be a quick day, and if you'd found a townie, you'd keep quiet until it looked like they were going to be accidentally lynched. Simple! |
