I think today will kick off in a while. I'd certainly expect it to, but at the moment there are a few people who haven't posted yet.

It's extremely entertaining to watch it all going on, knowing who is bluffing, who is being sensible and who is being a fool.

:D

Sorry I read more into that King wil have his head thing, I half read it as I was donning gardening crap and also trying to feed the cats :/

Bah! Bastards, the lot of them :P


It's ok, no-one spotted my hint in my very first post either... (except perhaps one of the aliens)

Also, not impressed with GazChap's cheating, am I the only one that's spotted it?

Also I'll just say I was very concious that I was likely to go early because I usually am and to that end, do you really think my recruits would be people obviously tieable to me?

This from Mr Dom is some of the worst reasoning I've seen:

Quote:
I'm more suspect of the initial votes rather than the end ones - it seems there reaches a point where people just go with the flow to get the day over, but the initial ones are probably scum trying to get fingers pointed early to give the rest of their team time to 'sneak' in unsuspicious support...

So my big FOS is currently pointed (still) at Zardoz...
he voted for both townies that have been lynched, and even suggested Shin as the target yesterday - probably his 'turn' as the initiator), so [vote:Zardoz]
Go on.. you know he's evil...

There's no reason for the scum to aim early unless they're threatened.

Well like I said in the game, he's either a classic newbie or being told to play the classic newbie.

And I think he's too good at being stupid :)

I wonder if I was bumped off for that one.

Author:  JBR [ Sat Mar 14, 2009 0:16 ]
Post subject:  Re: Alien Scum Dead Thread

I agree - just looks too much like he's playing a role. Or just trying his best - in a possibly over excited 'new' way - to throw people off the scent.

Author:  Dudley [ Sat Mar 14, 2009 0:18 ]

If he didn't attract votes we were probably going to bump him off tonight, you can't be too careful.

How was Gaz cheating?

Also Mr.Dom could be playing a good game with his 'newbie' act, not sure

Gaz wasn't cheating to my mind, at least.

But I meant, 'how was he?' like where/what bit was he cheating on? Sorry, I think I must have missed something

I do not wish to put words in Dudley's mouth, but I would guess it would be around metadata, and Gaz's first post of the day.

Post subject:  Re: Alien Scum Dead Thread

Hmmmm, I'm not sure it's cheating. I'd have preffered it if he hadn't wrote that down though. It'll make him look like a 'good guy' now-I'm convinced he is scummy scum :/
We'll have to discuss it on the next game or something as I think GJ and Joans may tell each other aswell if they are getting votes/being preyed upon. I'd literally got in and he said, 'Kat-check scum, you've been away and people haven't bothered to read your many messages about being away today!' so I did. That was basically it.

Post subject:  Re: Alien Scum Dead Thread

Yes, I consider that exactly the same as PMing without being part of those groups.

I'd have modkilled him on the spot for it if this had been the game malc and I were planning. I'm sure he didn't mean it as such but then neither did Craster when he accidentally found out the cult members by PMing when he shouldn't.

It's a shame I got killed really, the mafia game plan was perfect, you'll only work out who the other mafia are by dumb luck I'm afraid. One more day of recruiting and I think we'd have been unstoppable.

Just for everyone here, I'm almost certain Bluecup was the mafia's work. We'd talked about offing him next before I was nuked.

A good call that turned out to be.

So who trusts Grimothy?

Post subject:  Re: Alien Scum Dead Thread

Well its going to get interesting now - theres an alien killing role out there :-)

Pity my side of the game is over , first time i've had a role and it does change things quite a bit.

BTW my strategy if Scully was gone was going to be a role claim and announce what we found out to get the info out to the town.

With me gone Scully is better trying to survive as long as possible and off the aliens while she can.

Author:  zaphod79 [ Mon Mar 16, 2009 11:15 ]

oooh and a roleclaim from Grim... which basically puts him out of the picture tonight then .....

:p

Yeah - my role was going to be a bit awkward the longer the game went on because i was tied to another player who i didn't know.

Those speculating in here and in the game are missing one vital bit of info which i wont confirm but will bring to peoples attention here.

The FBI had 3 nights of investigation
We *may* have already turned up aliens
So if we have Scully can re-visit them tonight and they are mush !

So, let's watch the aliens try and deflect votes away from Morte until his situation becomes hopeless and then jump in so they look good.

Oh cools! I was buggered as I investigated Kalmar...then he upped and bloody died the next day-freaky O.o

I reckon Gaz is a baddie now. Not sure about Grim... though :S

Although i would be encouraging people not to rush things too much - it would be good to have today 'finished' with an alien kill and get through another night turn today.

Thing to remember is there could be 2 mafia out there even if the 2nd isnt a killing role (only 1 mafia death last night) so they could have a roleblocker or a protector/doc character.

They are not out of the game yet - and with no cop its going to be difficult for the town to find them.

Morte's an evening poster, I think. This could be a long day.

Author:  Curiosity [ Mon Mar 16, 2009 11:39 ]
Post subject:  Re: Alien Scum Dead Thread

It'll be interesting to see where the kills fall tonight. It's altogether possible that the Mafia and Aliens will both go for a roleclaimed Mannequin Artist, and also possible both will leave him alive as:

1) They could assume the other will do him in
2) He's just as likely (well, probably not statistically, but you know what I mean) to protect them as he is to protect Scully

Also, can Scully find an alien?

Post subject:  Re: Alien Scum Dead Thread

You're right, it does. The other option, of course, is that the BA told Grim... about someone on night 1 or 2, and then Grim... was recruited into the Mafia.

I LITERALLY just thought of this aswell

You didnt really attract much attention that i can see so you did your best - be interesting to see who you 'communicated' with after the game is over and what they found out.

dont worry - i wont - its not 'safe' for one.

I also would not indicate what the FBI know before its 'announced' in the game.

So one alien down - night moves what roles do we need sorted :

1 x Skully investigate / kill
1 x Alien kill
1 x mafia kill
possibly 1xmanaquinn maker protect
possibly 1xmafia block or protect

So potential of 3 dead bodies in the morning

It makes sense - he's an outed role who can protect the town - if i was alien or mafia i'd be going for him even if it risks both sides killing the same person

Craster's suspicioned himself up there.

And Grim... got a bit carried away with the roleclaim - pointing out that he'd already protected himself and then been told he couldn't again. Well, that invites the hit, doesn't it?

He can just as easily protect us... Maybe he already had...

Assuming the mafia were still a force the aliens were the thread, we'd be going after them, not a random protectron.

I agree that Grim... got carried away - after him showing everyone he's "just a townie" by having a legitimate BA vision i dont see why he's any more of a target than anyone else

The one positive is that I think both the aliens and the mafia will kill him tonight so it 'saves' one other person because its likely they would have targeted other people.

Actually if I was alive with a mafia bodyguard it'd be fun to protect him just for laughs.

And it'd so get him lynched instead of one of ma boys the next day.

Unless of course.... he IS one of ma boys...

Thing is his info turned out to be correct - so it wouldnt equate to a lynch - people might just think that the Mafia and Aliens both thought they other was getting him

Not if there were no deaths overnight at all and he's just admitted the only person who can protect him is the mafia.

Course I wouldn't put it past him to be one of the other Evil Aliens.

That would be a *very* risky strategy , offering up 1 point of a lead to make someone more seem human , and the problem is after outing himself as the mannequin maker the mafia will be targetting him.

Nah - i think we'll get to the morning and find one dead Grim... possibly stuffed inside a mannequin

I know - in the same way i'm not going to contact Scully either - I find the games on here fascinating but the nights really drag , and even if the results came in now i'm not sure it would be a good choice to start the next day.
