The Settlement [Concluded]

[Andres]

White_eyes is clearly avoiding posting his role pm.

Again: which one?

[Jolt]

Again: which one?

The latin one.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Again: which one?

He already posted one, therefore the one of interest would be the other one :book:

[Andres]

He already posted one, therefore the one of interest would be the other one :book:

Why are you not pressing fot taka's lynch? Because you a) believe that his Merchant role pm with a battle rating of 6 is genuine (:inquisitive: <-- but stronger); b) got recruited by the mafia :yes:

[Sasaki Kojiro]

taka is dueling CA.

[Andres]

taka is dueling CA.

:laugh4:

Yes, neither CA nor taka will unaccept or withdraw that challenge. Wasn't it you, yourself, who said that the duels won't work, because of last minute un-challenges.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

If they do then we lynch them...the answers to all your questions are obvious Andres. We only have a few loose ends to wrap up. Iffo can't recruit at night from among the living. Victory is certain.

[White_eyes:D]

I already addressed all of that boudica, TinCow...



One, Pisuf could have killed me....I didn't want that and could give early warning to town, that Pisuf is SK(which we know anyway)....if "The Watcher" lost....what chance does his apprentice have??? Two, Being his apprentice, I have no really good ability's other then stopping Iffo....I tried investigating Andres on night one....and I got his Merchant cover role...I also investigated CB on night two and got his Priest cover role...after all that, I figured investigating is worthless, since I will never get a "real result" (My role is pretty humorous compared to LG's....it's like I idolized "The Watcher" but never was nearly as good ).
I never said I was in Reenks Bronze companions....I said I was more a VERY big fan of "The Watcher" for some reason. I know how Iffo was tricked into a contract of charity, thanks to being a fan who hears of all "The Watchers" deeds....which is why I know how to reseal him.."The Watchers apprentice" is more of a joke for my guy who has a worser dual score then a farmer.....:brood:

I am not totally ignorant of the fact that this puts me in harms way....either by lynching or by getting killed:whip:but I have pulled off stuff like this in the past and IT HAS worked VERY well....on "The Simpson's Mafia" I provoked...a Sk into attacking me...
If I may, white eyes, you've pretty much made your ability useless, as now none of the mafia/zombies will go after you and waste a night in doing so. Instead, they will go after people who aren't confirmed (or merely claimed) as invincible.
will they can't win if they don't kill all the townies right? no matter what they do it is going to really mess them up, when they need to deal with me
Willie, never one to give up, summoned his great Scottish resolve and lifted both of his feet in the air, which caused his back to slide even further into the pointy ends of the sharp rake. The pain would have been unbearable, were it not for the whiskey. He kicked as hard as he could, and sent the little rat robot flying, axe and all. Barely escaping with his life, Willie lifted himself off of the rake, and ran as fast as he could into the school, bleeding the whole way.

The Itchy robot continued the hunt, but could not find Willie inside the school that night. Willie survives the assault, and Scratchy is destroyed. I messed up Itchy pretty badly that game:clown:

Edit:Even on "Whispers in the night" I claimed I was a "Vengeful ghost role" that could kill people....just so I could clear a turn for Reenk and glphzs to kill someone....IT WORKED....So you see??? it does not matter if you feel I am lying....because "Iffo" well have no choice but to find out:eyebrows:

[Seamus Fermanagh]

So many roles have been made public so far. We're almost at the endgame W_E....would revealing your complete role or cover role really be so damning?

Today = Arach.

Assuming he really does live, he then takes out Taka.

Tomorrow = ?

[White_eyes:D]

So many roles have been made public so far. We're almost at the endgame W_E....would revealing your complete role or cover role really be so damning?
We well see if it was wise......I didn't need to reveal in the past....I won't reveal now....(It could be faked anyway:rolleyes:)

[Jolt]

White Eyes, are you trying to provoke the demon to attack you? It won't happen. What you'll do (If you're not the demon itself) is waste the town a lynch turn. Pity we don't have any usurpers alive anymore, otherwise you would be giving us a great help.

[Reenk Roink]

Just to make it all clear this is the challenge record:

Challenges:

Seamus Fermanagh challenges Captain Blackadder
White_eyes:D challenges taka
CountArach challenges taka
taka accepts CountArach duel
Captain Blackadder accepts Seamus Fermanagh duel
White_eyes:D challenges boudica
boudica rejects White_eyes:D duel

Assuming nobody pulls out and things stay the same...

Since Seamus's challenge of Captain Blackadder was the first one made and later accepted, it will be the one that takes place at days end.

White eyes made a challenge to taka and later made one to boudica. Since a settler can only make one challenge per round the first challenge to taka is considered withdrawn.

taka accepted CA's challenge from reading his post. This challenge will be going on the challenge list and will be handled next round should nothing change before its time.

[Lord Winter]

We well see if it was wise......I didn't need to reveal in the past....I won't reveal now....(It could be faked anyway:rolleyes:)

You've revealed every part that matters besides the actual text, are you really that worried?

[White_eyes:D]

You've revealed every part that matters besides the actual text, are you really that worried?

I can Imagine whoever is playing Iffo is looking at the WIFOM and going nuts....:mellow: "What if he is telling the truth?" "I should lay low in any case".....these thoughts are going though the person's head as they try to figure out a way to deal with me......:laugh4::laugh4:

[Andres]

If they do then we lynch them...the answers to all your questions are obvious Andres. We only have a few loose ends to wrap up. Iffo can't recruit at night from among the living. Victory is certain.


Yes, the answers to all my questions are obvious.

Apparently, Seamus will duel Blackadder first.

Why would taka and CA help the town? They may be arch enemies, but if I were CA and taka, I'd work together. No duel, let town use three lynch rounds to get rid of them.

What about those who are already recruiting? The fact that there haven't been killings last night, doesn't mean the recruits can't kill.

What about your infiltrated townie network? Are you sure everybody else is innocent?

I've said this before and I'll say it again: taka is an usurper; he should go first.

[Lord Winter]

I can Imagine whoever is playing Iffo is looking at the WIFOM and going nuts....:mellow: "What if he is telling the truth?" "I should lay low in any case".....these thoughts are going though the person's head as they try to figure out a way to deal with me......:laugh4::laugh4:

Or they just decide to kill you to be sure. That's the logical mafia move. Or, the town gets tired of the WIFOM and lynches you. Or a vigilante takes you out. Either way you've already made yourself a target of iffo, and it would be better if you got the town off your back now and hope there is a doctor still alive to protect you.

[White_eyes:D]

:shrug: It's for Iffo to find out......no use in having a doctor protecting me when we still have a SK god on the loose.....:sweatdrop:

[Lord Winter]

So you:

a) Have some sort of defense mechinism that will kill iffo when he attacks you.
b) Are making up excuses to not show a PM that doesn't exsist

Even if A is true, theres no gureentee that Iffo will attack you, and also the SK god is CA who has promised not to kill. I thought you worried about iffo killing you. Afterall aren't you the one who can seal him up again?

Check...my POSTS....don't just skim them.....I explained in detail ALL of this....and frankly....I am tired of it really....:whip:(I never said I was worried about Iffo killing me....:brood: I was worried about Pisuf killing me...:sweatdrop:)

[Sasaki Kojiro]

hmm, I think either seamus or blackadder should back out, we should have the taka vs ca matchup.

[LittleGrizzly]

I agree... the taka ca one seems more promising... though i don't really think of a merchant as bound to charity...

[Andres]

Maybe CA and taka should be 1 and 2 in the lynch.

If the duel goes through, the survivor will get lynched, if the duel doesn't take place because one of them unchallenges, at least one of them will be lynched.

Vote : taka

If only I could...

[Seamus Fermanagh]

I regret that I have reached the same conclusion as Sasaki on the dueling. Blackadder, I will renew my challenge on the morrow.

Withdraw Challenge: Captain Blackadder

Rats.

[seireikhaan]

I don't trust merchants, so I vote: Taka.
Further odd is the insane battle score.
I hope I am not made to look like a baka.
Now please, let us end this terrible war.

[Reenk Roink]

I regret that I have reached the same conclusion as Sasaki on the dueling. Blackadder, I will renew my challenge on the morrow.

Withdraw Challenge: Captain Blackadder

Rats.

See, I try to prepare my write ups early so that right when voting ends I can post it but this kinda thing happens. :laugh4:

[Reenk Roink]

:stupido: Day 6


As the sun retreated to rest, the votes were tallied. The common count named Arach was the overwhelming choice for lynching, as it seemed quite clear that he was Pisuf, yet the settlers were more occupied with speculating on the Iffo character.

Before the execution however, there was to be a fight. The common count named Arach had challenged a man named Taka, who claimed to be a very tough merchant. Some speculated that he was Iffo. With another duel being withdrawn at the last moment, the stage was set for this battle.

The common count named Arach calmly walked up on the field but Taka was much more hesitant and unsure. The common count named Arach spoke first as he transformed from a small potter to the towering giant that was Pisuf: "Enough with the games, let's see how powerful you really are merchant!"

Taka took some time to respond but eventually swallowed his fear and himself transformed into a fearsome looking winged demon, seven feet tall. He boldly replied: "You may be powerful Pisuf, but you are still a shamed god, while I am free!"

Pisuf laughed as he watched the transformation and said: "Ah, good, it is Iffo. You know, you should be thanking me from freeing you from your contractual charity. How much of your treasures were you forced to give away again?"

These taunts infuriated Iffo: "SILENCE! My rage is such that I would be able to overcome you even if you were in your full glory!"

Pisuf laughed even harder: "It really makes me wonder how a mere human like The Watcher was able to trick you. Didn't you once claim the title 'Lord of Deceit'?

Iffo had heard enough and he pulled out two giant swords and rushed towards Pisuf. The party god merely continued to laugh and teleported behind Iffo right before the demon was able to strike.

Pulling out a sheet of papyrus and a quill, Pisuf taunted: "Hey Iffo, can you sign here please?"

Iffo screamed in anger and began to cast a spell which soon had daggers of flame circling around him. Once again he rushed Pisuf who merely created a cloud that would hover over Iffo's head and pour rain.

"Come now Iffo," said Pisuf, "at least The Watcher did a mediocre job in his attack. This is really a brutal performance. No wonder The Watcher was able to enslave you. I suppose I'll kill you now and spare you any further embarrassment."

With this Pisuf cast a spell which turned Iffo into solid gold. He then sent a burst of energy towards the petrified demon who shattered into many pieces which flew all over the field. Pisuf smirked and said: "Even in death the demon still gives."

...

The settlers, the Bronze Companions, and the priest king Reenk Roink watched the duel in awe. Once Pisuf had won, the priest king ordered everyone available to grab anything of use as a weapon and surround the god.

Pisuf laughed and addressed Reenk Roink: "Priest king, are you really foolish enough to try and execute me? Do you really think you and your toy soldiers can stop Pisuf?"

The priest king Reenk Roink stammered in his reply: "You may still be dangerous god of the arts, but rest assured that you cannot prevail against our numbers."

Pisuf was about to reply but then stopped. It appeared that some unknown entity had interrupted him. Pisuf lost his supercilious tone to one of annoyance as he argued with this unseen "hard*** as he referred to it. Suddenly, Pisuf was raised into the sky and went out of sight, screaming "Nooooooooooo!"


Pisuf was brought to the Divine Forest and stood before the king of the gods. OsiOsi said to him: "As we agreed, I have spared you from the mortality of your situation, and now I am no longer obliged to protect you anymore. You will return from whence you came and serve the rest of your sentence, or die trying..."

At this moment, OsiOsi stopped Kefy from dealing a fatal blow to Pisuf. Pisuf grinned at the goddess of the earth and then looked at Vode and said: "Hiya Vode, things aren't looking so hot eh?"

Vode coolly replied: "My plan has not been foiled yet, and do pray that you do not live to see the day I reign triumphant..."

Yes! So there goes Iffo.

However...Vode says his plot has not been foiled yet. So white_eyes, you really need to post your pm.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

He won't Sasaki. The two "weakest" reveals remaining are those of Blackadder and White_Eyes. The fall of One or both will, I now suspect, end this. Now, who should be given a nip of the parsnip?

[taka]

i was gonna say that it was pretty crummy that both me AND ca were off'd when we're the only ones to accept a challenge through the whole game, but then yea, writeup came up lol

[Sasaki Kojiro]

He won't Sasaki. The two "weakest" reveals remaining are those of Blackadder and White_Eyes. The fall of One or both will, I now suspect, end this. Now, who should be given a nip of the parsnip?

Indeed...CA, if you are still claiming to be pro-town, you should kill white_eyes tonight.

[TinCow]

Interesting, yet another example of Sasaki's excellent instincts. I believed taka's role claim.

I think the obvious course is to lynch CA again tomorrow.

[Askthepizzaguy]

:medievalcheers: Excellent work, fellows.

I am still worried, but now... I am getting less worried. Do continue, unimpeded by talking zombies. :bow:

[Lord Winter]

We're not out of the woods yet, so be slow about celabrating. We still have CA, a vode role and what ever else Reenk has stashed away. 2 kills tonight, lynch tommarow we're down to 9, then persuming that we have one kill from vode it could still end in a town, loss. The odds look good, but we have to be careful to not get cocky in the end.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I am still worried, but now... I am getting less worried.

I've learned that when statements like this become general town sentiment, this is when the town should be worried the most. Not that I couldn't be wrong, of course. Just sayin'.

Anyway, good luck to the remaining townies. This game has passed me by too much for me to be of any continued help. :bow:

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Well, I think we can give CA a chance to kill WE tonight. Then if the game isn't over we can lynch CA and have him duel blackadder. So by the end of th day tomorrow the three of them should be eliminated. And if they refuse to go along then we know they are guilty...

[taka]

if i was CA, i wouldn't do any of what sasaki says :laugh4:

[TinCow]

Does anyone have ANY info on any other scummy roles that have not been discussed so far? A reference in your role PM? Something at night? Something in a write-up that no one has picked up on before? While I too am wary of thinking we've about wrapped this up, CA/Yoyoma are the last roles that I am aware of that have any evidence against them.

[White_eyes:D]

I don't mind.....Iffo is gone...the fact that I scared him into not killing anyone was FUN...:laugh4::laugh4::laugh4: Yes, everything I said was a lie....:bow: Pisuf can kill me....and we still have one townie left thanks to me freezing Iffo for a turn(speculation is are worst enemy sometimes, bad luck taka:smash:)

Edit: and you can choose to believe it or not....but I was just a farmer...plain and simple:clown:

[taka]

I sent orders in not to kill after i was released :P sorry for taking away your joy :laugh4::laugh4::laugh4:

but yea, i kinda forged the top bit and posted. i'm so silly. but no worries, my student will carry out the rest of my orders from now on :devil:

[White_eyes:D]

My Role PM fully
Hello White_eyes:D, thanks for playing :bow:


Farming is the eternal war continuously being waged by mankind against the relentlessly invading hordes of the evil plant kingdom.

:stupido: Definition of farming

You are a Farmer

Background:

In the beginning the gods/mods decided to create a game. A mortal multiplayer on-earth role playing game called Life. So they created the Earth. Then they created the factions that would inhabit the Earth. On the one hand there were the plants, a faction of seemingly passive warriors who overwhelmed others with their sheer numbers. On the other hand there were the animals, who were much less stationary and much less numerous than the plants.

The animals at first were seriously nerfed, with only some among them being able to cause minimal damage the plants by grazing attacks. What was worse was that animal poop was plant food! For a long time, the plants pwned the animals. Plant spamming was a frequent complaint to the gods/mods.

Obviously the game was unbalanced so the gods/mods decided to introduce a new animal class: the human. The human was the most dangerous animal yet. However, the human had a long learning curve so for quite some time the plants had an easy time pwing the human players who were all noobs at that point. Their gathering attack was even less effective against the plants than the other animals' grazing attack.

Eventually however, some clans playing on certain maps unlocked a new package: the farmer. For the first time, the humans began to turn the tide against the plants, much to the chagrin of the latter who accused the humans of h4x. Now that the basic techniques of farming have been honed the learning curve is gone and over 70% of players now choose to be farmers.

Beware, however, as the gods/mods are rumored to introduce a new expansion pack called Urbanization which will nerf the farmer and force him to the margins of Life! Luckily the release date is a long time away. Until then, you will continue to rack up the points as a farmer. You did have to find a new server though, as you got banned from your old one.

Battle Rating:

2 - You don't have any type of military training and are dirt poor (actually you have a lot of dirt...) but you are ripped from toiling the fields all day and you can swing a mean hoe.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)and yes 90% of you will say it's fake.....but it's not...:smash:

[taka]

:laugh4: thats great

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Why would we say it's fake? It's the same one you posted in the beginning of the game...there is just doubt that it is your only one.

[White_eyes:D]

Why would we say it's fake? It's the same one you posted in the beginning of the game...there is just doubt that it is your only one.

Well I didn't receive a second one and I think Yoyoma can confirm this if he did investigate me:bow:....and I lied so much, to make Iffo go to a stand still...no one would believe me now...:laugh4::laugh4:

Edit:Bluff ability: You somehow make yourself scarier and much more intimidating then you Really are....:laugh4:

[TinCow]

Eh, I don't see how your actions were designed to make Iffo do nothing. If anything, they seemed designed to make him attack you.

[White_eyes:D]

Eh, I don't see how your actions were designed to make Iffo do nothing. If anything, they seemed designed to make him attack you.
:shrug: Let me list the ways it would help....
1.He would kill a generic townie...not a Pro-town one:yes:
2.He would be forced to think "What if he is trying the truth?" and not do much because of fear of being caught.....so he would wait for Pusif or me to be lynched.:bow:
3.Think....I had no role that could help....:shrug: but I know I can bluff and you sort of saw though it...I don't know why you would do that though...it was clearly meant to help town..not give Iffo a nice Pro-townie player to knock off:juggle2:
4.I had my fun....now it's time to die....What toke you guys so long...???:furious3:

[Askthepizzaguy]

Mmm... delicious wine.

[White_eyes:D]

Mmm... delicious wine.

I know...I even lied to you.....:laugh4::laugh4: I wonder why Reenk never made Bluffing my ability???:laugh4:

[Askthepizzaguy]

LOL At this point, I don't believe you or anyone else either way. As far as I'm concerned, I got fooled good by someone, and that's enough for me to doubt my conclusions.

[TinCow]

I actually do believe WE. What was obvious to me was that everything he was saying was a lie and that the Watcher's Apprentice was completely made-up. However, WE was not Iffo and I am not aware of any other scum roles that haven't yet been identified. So, with no more suspicion to place on WE's head, I accept his explanation.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Vode says his plan has not yet failed, and he doesn't seem to be allied with pisuf...the remaining vode agent doesn't seem to have kill capability, but we'll see I guess. There's not many possibilities.

[Captain Blackadder]

Challenge Seamus

If people still think I somehow need to prove my innocence here we go.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Accept: Cpt. Blackadder

Note, if the town prefers a different duel for mafia hunting purposes, I will step aside.

And yes, BA, with all respect, I do have some doubt.

[CountArach]

I'm not able to kill tonight - last night was my killing night... The town asked that I not kill anyone and so I did not. I will, however, investigate White Eyes and get his full role PM.

[naut]

I'm out of the loop and struggling to keep up with this game. Let me get this straight. There is an agent of Vode and CA left which are potentially bad, correct?

[Askthepizzaguy]

I think that's correct. To be honest, I've not been keeping up with the details either. I don't know if we truly only have one or two targets left or more.

:shrug:

CA is the target of course, but the writeups seem to indicate more in store for us.

[taka]

i think theres more than two if you're including CA

[boudica]

Yet again - excellent choice - the battle rating for a merchant WAS ridiculous and it's a good job we had a living God to kill the demon (rather than an imaginary Watcher fan-boy ;).

So - Vode clearly still has a chance of victory as has been noted from the write-up = more mafia to hunt down.

I'm glad we have stripped CountArach of his immortality but not finished him off - Pisuf's investigative skills should now come into their own - at least if he wishes to use them for towns' benefit.

@CA - I thought you could either kill or investigate as you wished and that it wasn't night-specific as you now claim?

[CountArach]

@CA - I thought you could either kill or investigate as you wished and that it wasn't night-specific as you now claim?
That's been the rule from the start. TinCow is claiming otherwise.

[boudica]

I'm not able to kill tonight - last night was my killing night... The town asked that I not kill anyone and so I did not. I will, however, investigate White Eyes and get his full role PM.

I'd suspect that you can either kill or investigate but not both. I don't buy your post above - unless I'm misunderstanding it, but it doesn't matter - you are fairly easy to spot in the write-ups if you do kill again.

Personally I believe you already have White_Eyes:D's full role PM, but I guess it also doesn't matter whether or not you spend a night investigating him - and then moving on to everyone left alive - unless anyone else is killed of course.

[Andres]

If your student is Andres....he is dead:skull: (I saw in his assassin Role PM "A dark figure trained him?")

Yeah, which is why I pressed for his lynch, the previous round :rolleyes:

Maybe you are his student? Like Yoyoma1910 is Pissufs' student?

Why don't you show us the pm you got when taka recruited you, eh?



I'm not able to kill tonight - last night was my killing night... The town asked that I not kill anyone and so I did not. I will, however, investigate White Eyes and get his full role PM.

How about investigating Captain Blackadder?

[Andres]

I'm not able to kill tonight - last night was my killing night... The town asked that I not kill anyone and so I did not. I will, however, investigate White Eyes and get his full role PM.

Or maybe you aren't investigating, but converting :inquisitive:

[taka]

here andres, have some wine. on the house of course :bow: There are times when students get jealous and kill their masters. have another glass of wine :bow:

[Jolt]

Vode's plan is not foiled because as Jesus said "Grow and multiply!" - Luckily Yoyoma's investigation to me did not hand out full results. :bow:

[Askthepizzaguy]

Lord Vode's plan is not foiled because I still haven't been banished, and I am reaping more souls for my ever-growing army of the undead.

[Reenk Roink]

Captain Blackadder and Seamus, can't challenge at night. Also orders!

[Jolt]

Lord Vode's plan is not foiled because I still haven't been banished, and I am reaping more souls for my ever-growing army of the undead.

Until time comes... My Real Real Role PM:


Hello Jolt, thanks for playing :bow:


If by my life or death I can protect you, I will. You have my sword...

:stupido: Jolt on anyone cool enough.

You are Jolt (Aliases: Strider/Aragorn)

Background:

You are Jolt, a lean, dark and tall, with shaggy dark hair "flecked with grey", grey eyes, and a stern pale face. You are said to be often grim and sad, with unexpected moments of levity. You are 1.98 m (6 ft 6 in) tall..

You possess Elven wisdom due to your childhood in Rivendell with Elrond and the foresight of the Dúnedain. You are a skilled healer, notably with the plant athelas (also known as Kingsfoil). You are also a mighty warrior and an unmatched commander; after the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, you, Éomer and Imrahil are said to be left unscathed, even though you had been in the thick of the fighting. Due to your position as Isildur's heir, you had impressive powers for a Man, and, as the rightful owner of the palantíri could use the Orthanc stone in Sauron's despite.

Your destiny is to selfishly steal the Dead Man's Army which Askthepizzaguy will inevitably form and use it to reunify your kingdom (You must kill the Priest-King and Sauron in the meantime)

Battle Rating:

6 - You are awesome in stature and your very presence makes people wary as it emanates power. You are one of the most skilled in the use of sword-fighting, and your blows can cause terrible damage, plus you are one of the uber-protagonist of a series of blockbuster movies.

Abilities:

Kill: Every night period, you may attempt to kill one settler. With your powerful influence in the direction of the movie/game, you have many avenues of murder, to which you can coerce the director/GM into, at your disposal.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the Sauron (Gondor victory)
Outlast the Priest-King (Gondor victory)

[Lord Winter]

Thats obviously fake, a six is way to low for a hollywood protagonist. You know they'd never be allowed to die.

[Reenk Roink]

My game has become a breeding ground for joke PM's...

Not sure how I feel about that...

Of course I love it! :laugh4: :2thumbsup:

[Reenk Roink]

:stupido:

For the second morning in the row the settlers woke up to find that no killing had taken place. As they met the priest king Reenk Roink in the gathering hall, he told them: "Do not lose vigilance, finish this once and for all!"

[Captain Blackadder]

Challenge Seamus

[FactionHeir]

Maybe you guyss should just vote Reenk :grin:

[TinCow]

That confirms my suspicions. Lynch CountArach and the game will be done.

[Captain Blackadder]

VOTE CA

[Askthepizzaguy]

That confirms my suspicions. Lynch CountArach and the game will be done.I applaud and bow to your efforts. You're probably a lot more in the know than I am, so forgive this comment likely made out of ignorance and extreme caution:

It's very possible you're right, and I don't recommend you deviate from your plan. However, don't fall into the same trap I always fall into, which is to assume you're correct and then overlook other suspects, like I've done in several games. Be sure to look at alternative theories and question people and get as much information as you can. Also, massive bandwagon on CountArach may not be necessary; let the Good Men abstain, perhaps... so the tally can be changed if necessary.

Suggestions from your dead, but loyal, occasional fool. :jester:

[Reenk Roink]

Maybe you guyss should just vote Reenk :grin:

Nonsense, all voting power derives from me. :charge:

[TinCow]

Your caution is not misplaced, ATPG. No need to spoiler that comment, as it's a sensible one. The lack of any kills combined with this:


As they met the priest king Reenk Roink in the gathering hall, he told them: "Do not lose vigilance, finish this once and for all!"

indicates to me that it is possible for the game to end in this round. For those of you with any doubt remaining about CountArach, I'm sure Yoyoma will provide you with all the evidence you need whenever he gets online. :bow:

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Lynching count arach is the best idea for sure. If you have doubts about anyone else have them challenge each other.

[Askthepizzaguy]

With the lack of kills, I think we could actually afford not to duel anyone today. However, if CountArach is recruiting during the night, we have bigger problems. I am very, very pleased with how things are going, but I also think of the tortoise and the hare. The hare was about to win, until the very end when he got overconfident and decided to sleep on the job.

Speaking of which.... zzzz

[Lord Winter]

There's still the refrence to vode that we need to deal with. Ethier that means that CA is aligned with Vode or else there's another scum role laying low for now.

I say we be certain, lynch CA this round and dual Blackadder just to make sure.

Vote: CA

[Seamus Fermanagh]

I don't think Arach is a friend of the town -- sorry CA.

I don't think Arach is the last of the usurpers/threats.

I will vote: CountArach because I see no clearer path.

I will also accept challenge: Cpt. Blackadder, though if another duel is preferred, I will step aside once more.

Thoughts?

[boudica]

The latest write-up seems that we are tantalisingly close, but as has already been noted several times - the previous write-up alluded to Vode still being in with a shot. Although there doesn't seem to be a better lynch target than CountArach - I hope that we don't regret lynching him if another powerful agent of Vode becomes evident. (I think that we would have been in serious trouble with Iffo if Pisuf had already been dealt with).

However - it is possible still that CA DID choose the path of Vode and that by lynching him we eliminate the Usurper threat once and for all.

vote: CountArach

unless anyone has any other bright ideas? ...There are still one or two lurkers :whip:

[Yoyoma1910]

You prepare for the night vigil once more, seeking the knowledge of the king of the gods of the true nature of the captain of something named Blackadder and OsiOsi inspires you as such:



If thou ever feeleth the desire to striketh another, restrain thyself and burneth a pound of meat to OsiOsi. He will allow thee to bed the wife of thee enemy.

:stupido: A priest's sermon

You are a Priest

Background:

There are a two prerequisites for becoming a priest:

1) Being old
2) Being a virgin

After that you can worship the gods all the time instead of just on weekends!

Battle Rating:

1 – Devoting yourself to the rituals of the gods leaves little time for military training. The strongest man is the one with the strongest faith as you say.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)

OsiOsi adds, even I don't know what he is the captain of.

[naut]

vote: CountArach

This better end it. :beam:

[Yoyoma1910]

:holmes:

Sigh... I guess I might as well come clean. I just hope this solves the issue:

Night 3:


You once again prepare the altar of the sky god and start the ritual of the night vigil. You make the supplication to be inspired with the true nature of the commoner who calls himself a count named Arach. Many minutes later without a response, you begin to feel very worried at the lack of contact with the god.

Suddenly a flash of inspiration seizes you, you are shocked when given the identity of the common count called Arach:



I shared a bottle of wine with him once and woke up with a terrible pain in my loins...

:stupido: Kefy the goddess of the earth on you

You are Pisuf

Background:

The god of the arts, you are the patron of the things which some misguided fools, both divine and mortal, call low. You inspire man to create the most exquisite works of pornographic poetry and pottery from his deepest and most basic instincts.

You are a free spirit and some call you a troublemaker, including that hard*** OsiOsi, lord of the sky and king of the gods. He didn't give a damn when you bedded his wife Remi along with three mortal woman in his chambers. Yet when you farted during the assembly and then blamed it on him he banished you from the Divine Forest and forced you into a mortal form...

As you walked among the mortals you made your presence felt in many ways. You were the one who started the great Civil War by first going to each different priest king and making many interleaving treaties. Then you triggered the war by disguising yourself as one priest king and sleeping with anothers' wife. You singlehandedly ended years of famine in one city by introducing a thousand talents of gold into the economy and you brought the end of another city by stealing the money from them. You rounded up all the disenfranchised people in a city and had them overthrow the priest king only to personally lead an army to reinstate the priest king when the new rulers become corrupt with power.

Your actions have been labeled as many things by the mortals, but you are a god, far above the standards of men, and so it bothers you little that you have been accused of indulgent caprice.

OsiOsi has given you a redemption quest which you have ignored for far too long. You are to find and kill an impious man who dishonors the gods. He is called The Psyensil and OsiOsi gave word that he was heading with a group to found a new settlement. You have jumped along with this group. Given the situation, your mission taking a backseat to the opportunities for fun you will have.

Battle Rating:

10 - Although your status as an god has been stripped from you, you still are the most powerful mortal being on the world. Standing over nine feet tall in this mortal form, you are more fearsome in war than the greatest heroes of legend ever were. Your knowledge far surpasses the greatest sages of this world and you have an incredible command of magic. You will indeed seem like a god to these mortals.

Abilities:

Investigation: Every night period, you may attempt an investigation on one settler. This will involve making a request to OsiOsi who will then send you down the exact knowledge on that settler.

Resistances: Due to your unique status, you will be unaffected in many ways from the world around you. However, you do not know the limits of your resistances and they may change depending on the path you choose.

Kill: Every night period, you may attempt to kill one settler. You will have many methods at your disposal to perform this deed

Note: You may only perform one action each night (you cannot both investigate and kill on the same night).

Victory Conditions:

Your victory conditions depend wholly on what course you decide to follow. You can ally yourself with the settlers or you can ally yourself with the usurpers or you can give aid to neither and go your own way. However, a necessary condition for your victory regardless of which course you undertake is that you must outlast The Psyensil.

Note: Send me your choice at any point during the game while you are still alive. You cannot change your choice.

Public Role:


Can I get it with chicken?

:stupido: A customer when buying a bowl

You are a Potter

Background:

Why did you become a potter? You often think about this question when your mind is idle on the wheel.

The most widely held theory is that you are descended from a tribe which incorporated pottery into a central position of their hunting rituals. Your tribe believed that if the hunter cannot see the prey then the prey cannot see the hunter and so one man of the tribe ingeniously instructed the hunters to put clay bowls over their heads so as to increase productivity during a famine.

Other theories have recently been advanced, more based on actual reality, such as the theory that you have inherited your profession supported by the fact that your father and your father’s father were potters, but so far these have not gained popularity from academics or the general public at large.

Whatever the reason, every new settlement needs a potter to make sure that the history and culture of a people is remembered when the potsherds are dug up thousands of years later (as well as the less important reason for providing vessels for various uses).

Battle Rating:

1 - You continue the traditions of your tribe by putting a pot over your head when you go into battle. Unfortunately, baked clay is not that effective at protecting against blows and also a pot over the eyes impedes vision.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)

A command also comes from the king of the gods: Do not reveal his identity or work against him in any manner. At least not yet. When he has served my purpose then you may do as you please.

Intrigued by the revelation but ever faithful to the command of OsiOsi, you begin to speculate as to what Pisuf is up to and for what end OsiOsi is using him.

This is broken by a knock on your door. As you open it you see the familiar sight of a bottle of wine with a pretty ribbon on it. You chuckle softly as you think of the man who sends you this gift repeatedly after you complete your rituals. You make a short prayer that he be shown the light for his gift, despite his misguided motivations.

After a good half hour of drinking, you feel very drowsy and lie on your bed. As soon as you are about to give in totally from slumber, a striking vision of a incredibly handsome figure towering nine feet high appears. The figure speaks: "You serve OsiOsi, but - regrettably - I do too. Now serve me!"

Despite your fidelity to OsiOsi and your misgivings about Pisuf, you feel compelled to oblige. However, you also feel the presence of OsiOsi in the background, as if he has only stepped out of the way momentarily, and can at anytime free you from the influence of Pisuf.

Note: you have been converted by the god Pisuf (as you know from your night vigil he is the common count called Arach). You must now serve him and his cult unconditionally. His victory conditions are now yours, otherwise your role and abilities remain the same. He may want to contact you and you may want to contact him.

Note: Your victory conditions have changed

Victory Conditions

Outlast The Psyensil
Outlast the settlers
Outlast the usurpers


Ca then sent me this:


Welcome to the real game, mate :wink:

Here is the PM I want you to send to TinCow as your investigation result on me. It is a fake role PM that I have previously sent to TinCow and as such it is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL that TinCow receives it. That way you will be able to confirm my Fake PM as the real one.

Genius, innit?

I'll send you my real one as well and I will explain what I would like to happen in the game.


Hello CountArach, thanks for playing :bow:

As you walked among the mortals you made your presence felt in many ways. Primarily though, you were the soul who ended the great Civil War by turning the priests of the false gods amongst each other. Unfortunately you invoked the ire of the ‘Great ***hole in the sky’ when you ‘accidentally’ tripped and stabbed the high priest of OsiOsi in several of the other cities.

Your actions have been labeled as many things by the gods, but they can do little for you are still a god, far above the standards of men, and so it bothers you little that you have been accused of indulgent caprice, especially when it comes to stabbing things.

OsiOsi has given you a redemption quest which you have ignored for far too long. You are to find and kill a certain group of men who lurk amongst a new settler group who go against the will of OsiOsi. Any fun you might wish to have must take a back seat to your mission.

And this:


Well here it is. As you may have guessed I have not chosen to play the pro-town option of my game, instead I am going for the solo victory. Because I told Reenk this he changed my role by adding stuff to it. You can find that at the bottom. It explains why I converted you in this last night phase.

And the extra stuff:

OsiOsi is pleased that you will not take sides in the conflicts of mortals. He will thus be more lenient with you. Before this, were you to fail in your mission and expose yourself to death, the sky god would have whisked you away from earth and imprison you in the darkest reaches of the Divine Forest. Now, he is willing to give you a second chance to accomplish your mission.

Abilities:

Note: You keep your existing abilities. These are just additions and updates.

Conversion: One night period, you may attempt to convert a settler to follow you cult alone. This will abrogate any existing victory conditions he has and he will share your victory conditions. He will keep whatever abilities and battle ratings he had prior to his conversion. This ability can only be used once.

Note: The Psyensil cannot be converted.

Resistances: Should you get lynched, you will continue on in the game unaffected. However, this ability is used up after one lynch and should you be lynched again, it will be the normal case.

Note: You may only perform one action each night (you either convert, investigate, or kill on each night).

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the Psyensil
Outlast the settlers
Outlast the usurpers
Now what I need from you is to see if you can get LG to send you a copy of his role PM. State that you have a pro-town group forming that you want him to join, but a condition of entry is that he must send his role PM to you (This should work because he thinks you are innocent). When you get it, forward it to me and I shall then send it to TinCow as my night investigation result. Thus there would be no way of knowing that I converted you.

Until I get this role PM I shall be using Invisible mode and I shall remain silent in the thread, as well as not reading TinCow's PMs, so that he can't track me.



After TinCow's death:


OsiOsi has freed you from the control of Pisuf and your victory conditions are now back to the initial ones.

Not knowing that he didn't know I had been freed, I then asked Little Grizzly to try and take him down... sorry LG. Didn't know it wouldn't work.

...


I then tried to reach a compromised solution which would allow both parties to win. It didn't work:



Well, this night I'd like to ask something of the all seeing OsiOsi other than someone's identity if possible...


It is important for us that faith in the gods exist in the men of this settlement. With out belief and faith what are the gods but faded memories? I have tried my best to do all that OsiOsi asked of me, and I have helped the people to remain faithful to him and the Priest King as best I could.

The Psynesil is dead, and so faith can continue in this land. But I doubt my own life shall continue, for there are new agents that would rid the world of those faithful to OsiOsi.

Pisuf, though he stands now to achieve his own goals, has done nothing outwardly to harm the settlers. Indeed, he has helped them. Immensely.

Great OsiOsi, you asked me to follow him... and I did so though it broke my heart. Now I humbly ask you: allow him to change his goals and offer him again the chance to work on the side of these settlers.

Without his help, these people, and all hope of decent faith in this land are doomed.



...



If that's not possible, investigate Ichigo.

:laugh4:


As you prepare the night vigil, you make an unorthodox request to OsiOsi to guide Pisuf as you had gained an emotional attachment to him under his control. However, OsiOsi is displeased with your attachment with anyone other than himself and almost as soon as you make the request, you have the feeling that it is rejected. Disappointed, you ask the sky god to reveal to you the true nature of the quietest man Ichigo, which he does:


Your mother reminds me of the most just socio-economic ideal: every worker gets a share!

:stupido: Laborer inside joke

You are a Laborer

Background:

Once upon a time the gods would build buildings and plow fields for humans. Then some stupid priest king tried to kill the gods because he was upset at how he had to walk downstairs to use the bathroom in his palace. Needless to say, the gods weren't happy with this ungrateful attitude towards their architectural design and so they made humans work.

So you work. It really isn't that bad, but your lot are a bunch of lazy whiners so they always complain and are ungrateful to the benevolent bourgeois.

You make a long list of grievances, but they really are pretenses for wanting a cushy white robe job like the priests and bureaucrats have where they just look at pretty women when their bosses aren't looking.

Battle Rating:

3 – Your line of work really toughens up a man, and even though you don't have any military training or equipment, you are pretty tough to fight.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)


Anyway... so that sums that all up n a nut shell.

:7detective:

[Askthepizzaguy]

edit: nevermind need to read stuff before I post

[LittleGrizzly]

So cancel the blackadder duel... CA lynch is now confirmed for sure with Yoyoma coming forward...

Ichigo also confirmed innocent...

Who do we have left to look at... WE's role faking... potentially to help the town could just be a cover... any other people suspect for some reason... or just a list of people who haven't been cleared by investigation...

We shouldn't just vote CA and not comment this round... there could be other scum we need to find and its best to be prepared...

I then asked Little Grizzly to try and take him down... sorry LG. Didn't know it wouldn't work.

No worries... aslong as my death is not in vain!

[_Tristan_]

Vote : Count Arach

Who else ?

[TinCow]

Apologies for my earlier statements fingering Yoyoma and making some of you paranoid about further Pisuf recruits. That was designed to keep Yoyoma clear from suspicion by CA. The information I got on CA after I died came from Yoyoma, not Reenk. My priority was to keep CA from killing Yoyoma until we could lynch CA twice. If there are further scum out there, Yoyoma should be able to locate them.

Based on Yoyoma's recent investigations and the ones that were accomplished earlier in the game, the only living people who have not been investigated and found innocent (other than CA) are:
White_eyes:D
Lord Winter
Psychonaut
Tristan de Castelreng
Sigurd
Seamus Fermanagh

[_Tristan_]

Can anybody confirm if seireikhann is innocent ? or Sigurd ?

[TinCow]

seireikhaan is innocent.

[CountArach]

Well, looks like I'm dead...

[_Tristan_]

You had it coming....:whip:

[CountArach]

Ah well, it just gives me a chance to do more of my write-up.

[Jolt]

Well, looks like I'm dead...

Vode has cursed you, you vile worthless excuse for a god, for pretending you were trying to foil His most great plans and pretending to ally with the OsiOsi lovers! Vode sends his regards!

[naut]

Looking at my role PM it makes sense that my roleblock didn't work on CA. He's the one who originally gave me the gift. :laugh4:

[Reenk Roink]

I might just end the night early this round. Do people mind? If so say something. I will take silence as approval. :bow:

My new time is 16:00 Eastern today.

[Yoyoma1910]

[peer pressure]


Do it... come one man, you know you want to. Everybody's ending days early these days. It's what all the cool kids are doing.


Ozzy Osbourne used to do it, now look at how totally awesome he is.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Seamus is innocent, or I will eat the box my pizza came in.

That's my opinion, not a fact.

[TinCow]

I might just end the night early this round. Do people mind? If so say something. I will take silence as approval. :bow:

My new time is 16:00 Eastern today.

I suspect that CA's lynching is a foregone conclusion, so I don't see the harm.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Agreed. My vote is round ending early, if I had a say, which I don't.

:bow:

[Reenk Roink]

:stupido: Day 7


As the sky dimmed, the settlers had once again overwhelmingly decided that the common count named Arach who really was the god of arts and parties Pisuf would have to go.

However, the captain of something named Blackadder was still weary about the suspicion thrown against him realized that the only way he would be cleared was through a duel. This time, the captain of something named Blackadder proactively made the challenge to Seamus Fermanagh, which the latter accepted.

As the two men walked to the field, the somber looking captain of something named Blackadder addressed his opponent and the settlers at large: "I do not blame you for being suspicious of me or accusing me. I am but a humble servant of the gods, but given the trials and tribulations we are placed in, it is not surprising that it should come to this. I hope that my death shall end at least one avenue of distraction from our real quest to find the usurpers and any other threats. We must accomplish this goal as to get back to our devotion of the powers.

The captain of something named Blackadder then turned to the priest king Reenk Roink and praised him. Reenk Roink offered the captain of something his sword. The ever humble priest Blackadder politely refused and reminded the priest king that a sword made for kings should only be wielded by kings. Blackadder settled on a finely made sword, but he seemed to have no experience with the weapon whatsoever, handling it with disgust and fear.

Seamus Fermanagh on the other side, was kicking his sheep away from him as he got ready for the battle. He wielded a crudely crafted club. As the signal went to start the battle, Seamus Fermangh ran towards a motionless Blackadder, nearly tripping several times on the way. As they engaged themselves, Blackadder tried to deflect the flails of Seamus, and the only reason the pitiful attempts at defense were successful was because the attacks was equally pitiful. Finally, Seamus Fermanagh was able to strike the captain of something on the head which sent the priest tumbling down, dead.

The priest king Reenk Roink was disgusted by the unnecessary killing of a man of the gods, and he went to cover the body of the priest with a fine cloak.

He then turned to the settlers and screamed: "IS THIS NOT WHAT YOU WANTED? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?

Subduing his anger, he called on ever settler to arm himself and surround the common count named Arach. Reenk Roink appealed to the damned: "Pisuf! Obey the law of the land and go quietly, perhaps you will one day be reinstated to your position of power."

The common count named Arach rolled his eyes but was obviously wary of all the accusations and battles. He responded despondently: "I could fight you and your followers priest king, and I could do much damage, but why bother? That hard*** OsiOsi didn't even seem to care that I delivered The Psyensil in a most Pisuftastic way. Even if I win, the sky god will still imprison me, not to mention the heifer Kefy clearly is going to hold a grudge because I killed one of her slaves and will probably make the earth swallow me up when the time is near. So strike me priest king, send me to my prison..."

Sure enough, the command was given to the archers to fire, and as soon as the first arrow was about to strike, Pisuf was teleported away.

The priest king Reenk Roink addressed the settlers. Well now, we will consult the priests to interpret the many signs of the gods to see if we are free of the usurpers and other threats. We shall meet tomorrow. Until then...

So, TinCow is the one who's feeding the town information? So, he leads the townie network? If this game doesn't end after this round, then town is in a really bad position...



Looking at my role PM it makes sense that my roleblock didn't work on CA. He's the one who originally gave me the gift. :laugh4:

So, you're a follower of Pissuf? Interesting...

[TinCow]

So, TinCow is the one who's feeding the town information? So, he leads the townie network?

I was just one of four people who formed a group. Three of us were detectives and the fourth was Pisuf. I became the nexus because the other three all investigated me and contacted me individually. This thing was not my idea, but when people investigate you and get your full role PM as a result, there's not a whole lot you can do but accept the situation and move on. In any case, I think this group ended up being responsible for eliminating most of the scum in the game (Sasaki, yourself, Jolt, and CA) so the ends justified the means.

The one who tried to form a pro-town group failed... the one who opposed it succeeded.

As my last act in this thread I will say White Eyes is innocent. Don't bother.

A ghostly sound is heard coming from the distance

I told you I was innocent.

[Andres]

If the game isn't over tomorrow, then I'd go for Yoyoma1910.

[LittleGrizzly]

White Eyes is innocent... im pretty damn sure...

Blackadder duel was a waste... unfortunatlely is was too late for either player to withdraw...

I really don't think it is Yoyoma... if it is he pulled off a blinder... but he has been too helpful to the towns cause....

AFAIK all the other players have been checked out in one way or another...

[_Tristan_]

Yes, checked out and proven innocent...

The only people who have not been investigated presumably are Ichigo and Boudica

[Yoyoma1910]

I think the issue is that there is quite possibly a new entity afloat.

[boudica]

Yes, checked out and proven innocent...

The only people who have not been investigated presumably are Ichigo and Boudica

Nice of you to confirm yourself :laugh4: When were you investigated Tristan? I don't recall...

As far as I am aware - and as has been reported already - I have been investigated, but if anyone able feels the need to check me out please go ahead. Maybe if Yoyoma could produce his definitive list so far. That said, is it not possible that someone may have been converted since investigation by Pisuf? I haven't done the maths.

[LittleGrizzly]

Im pretty sure boudica had been investigated...

By the sounds of what Yoyoma said though... no one is know a proven innocent... we are looking for a new entity...

Except perhaps those Yoyoma has checked out in the last day or two ?

[Yoyoma1910]

I believe the issue is a possible Iffo convert, which means that the person could have been converted in the last couple of turns.

Two nights ago I investigated Ichigo. Last night I investigated Captain Blackadder.

So thanks for making that list half, if not completely, ineffective.

[TinCow]

Investigations to the best of my knowledge:

TinCow:
N1 - Sasaki - guilty
N2 - GH - innocent
N3 - FH - innocent
N4 - boudica - innocent

LittleGrizzly:
N1/N2 - TinCow/Yoyoma (order unknown) - both innocent
N3 - Andres - Guilty
N4 - theartistformerlyknownasseireikhaan - Innocent
N5 - attacked CA

Yoyoma:
N1 - Beefy - Innocent
N2 - TinCow - Innocent
N3 - CA - *converted this night*
N4 - seireikhaan (overlap with LG due to miscommunication) - innocent
N5 - Jolt - guilty
N6 - Ichigo - innocent
N7 - Captain Blackadder - innocent

CA:
N1 - TinCow - innocent
N2 - killed Sasaki
N3 - Coverted Yoyoma

N5 - ?

N7 - WE - innocent

Did Jolt come from CA then? Can you fill in CA's activities?

[Yoyoma1910]

As far as I know, CA was only able to convert one person.


Tristan was investigated, the PM CA forwarded me says he is innocent.


Also, it is worth noting that Pisuf was aligned against all other parties. That includes both the settlers and usurpers. He had to be the last man standing to win.


Supposedly last night he investigated White Eyes, and claims he is innocent.


Edit:

I think you might be a night behind, because I'm the one who investigated Jolt. We started with a night period, rather than a day.

[TinCow]

Yeah, I went back and checked and I missed a night. Updated the above list to correct that error. Note that this list is only an accurate report of what people have claimed they have done. If the game continues to go, I wouldn't put a whole lot of faith in investigation results.

[Jolt]

Sigurd hasn't been investigated yet it seems.

[LittleGrizzly]

(overlap with LG due to miscommunication)

Overlap with LG due to LG not knowing the people he was in contact with where investigators too...

Really not sure where to go from here... random accusations of various people... or lynch th lurkers ~;)

[Reenk Roink]

:stupido:


From deep within the Divine Forest, Vode looked at the settlement of the priest king Reenk Roink. Turning to OsiOsi, he spoke: "So it seems that the outward acts of usurping have failed. Yet in war, information is very important and the settlers do not know what walks among them. A servant of mine still remains; I am his eyes and he is my secret...

As the sun once again rose from her slumber and revealed to the settlers that once again there was no bloodshed taking place under the cover of night, the priest king Reenk Roink gathered the settlers and addressed them: "Settlers, the priests and augurs and oracles have all revealed that the usurper threat still looms, although it does not manifest itself outwardly. Therefore you must find and eliminate the last of the threats, and be assured that it will prove the most evasive and hardest to find!"

Seamus Fermanagh was not present however, as he was stumbling around the settlement, drunk, singing songs about sheep.

the usurper threat still looms, although it does not manifest itself outwardly.

Think that means that investigations will be useless in determining the offender ??

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Since it says specifically that it is a servant of vode that remains...I assume our investigation results are valid.

So...Lord Winter and Sigurd to die by lynch and duel?

Or tristan, what do we know about tristan? Vote moving is a shifty sort of power.


the usurper threat still looms, although it does not manifest itself outwardly.

Good point.

[TinCow]

Yoyoma claims to be the Eye of OsiOsi. Based on the statement in that write-up, I would assume that there is also an Eye of Vode. If it's anything like Yoyoma, the Eye of Vode cannot do anything other than investigate. So, there shouldn't be any need to worry about night kills. I suggest that you start lynching the people that have not been investigated:

Lord Winter
Psychonaut
Sigurd
Seamus Fermanagh

If that does not end the game, lynch Yoyoma.


Or tristan, what do we know about tristan? Vote moving is a shifty sort of power.

Yoyoma claims to have a detective result PM on him. That should probably be posted publicly.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I say we lynch Lord Winter today, and have psychonaut and seamus duel (since sigurd might not show up to accept).

[LittleGrizzly]

Sasaki's plan makes sense to me.... or maybe we should ask for full role reveals ect. from them and lynch the one who doesn't reveal (probably sigurd) and work out what to do with the rest from there... which to duel which to take to another round...

Im thinking Yoyoma can't be the bad priest... what was the other results on him like... mine arent as clear as yoyo's for example..

[Seamus Fermanagh]

One pair of the designated targets should battle. Both should have votes on them in roughly equal measure. Both get dead that way.

I spent last night drunk off my shepherdy-patootie. Spouse claims I was fantastic -- better than ever -- but I can't recall a :daisy: thing. Thanks for the nap, Psyco? Boudica?



As you go back to your home, exhausted after the fight, you notice a bottle of wine with a pretty ribbon. Although you have to tend the sheep, feed the kids, and love the wife, your raging alcoholism overrides all those concerns and you spend the night hitting the sauce.

[TinCow]

Yes, thinking a bit more about this I think we can actually cross Yoyoma off the list. He handed Jolt to us with an investigation result at a time when Jolt was under no pressure and CA was an easy lynch. There is no way that a Vode supporter would have done that, and the write-up makes it clear there that our remaining suspect is a Vode supporter. I was cautious about him because presumably an Eye of Vode role PM would be easy to transform into one for the Eye of OsiOsi.

Since Yoyoma gets peoples' full role PMs, I would say the odds of him being fooled are low. That should pretty fully clear seireikhaan and Ichigo. Given that I was an athiest, I suspect I would have noticed something odd about a priest of Vode (since the Eye of OsiOsi is a priest, an Eye of Vode would presumably be one as well), which should mean my investigation result on boudica should also be trusted. Under the circumstances though, I wouldn't trust in any results that CountArach produced. That includes WE and Tristan.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Hmm, CA had to eliminate the vode supporters as well yes? However, I would suggest lynching white_eyes in that case.

[CountArach]

Under the circumstances though, I wouldn't trust in any results that CountArach produced. That includes WE and Tristan.
Oh the things I could tell you...

[TinCow]

Hmm, CA had to eliminate the vode supporters as well yes? However, I would suggest lynching white_eyes in that case.

I agree that CA's results are probably accurate simply because he shared them with Yoyoma at a time when he thought Yoyoma was on his side. However, if the other 4 are killed off and the game is still going, WE and Tristan should be looked at again for this reason.

I agree with the dueling plan, but only to knock the suspects down faster. I wouldn't consider anyone who's victorious to be cleared of anything.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I have a better idea. How about this eye of vode character mans up, admits he can't kill at night and therefore has a 0% chance of winning, and reveals himself instead of drawing out the game for another 4 days? We can even let you go out dueling the person of your choosing.

[Jolt]

Teeheehee! If anything, the "Eye of Vode" is not like the Eye of OsiOsi!

[Yoyoma1910]

I suppose I could post the role PMs I've received.

[Reenk Roink]

I forgot to mention that Seamus Fermanagh was found stumbling around drunk, singing songs about sheep. It is now reflected in the write up. Sorry.

[Yoyoma1910]

Would Psyconaut mind posting the quotation from the non cover portion on his Role PM?

[Askthepizzaguy]

"Settlers, the priests and augurs and oracles have all revealed that the usurper threat still looms, although it does not manifest itself outwardly. Therefore you must find and eliminate the last of the threats, and be assured that it will prove the most evasive and hardest to find!"

You guys should vote for Reenk Roink.

He would be the last person you suspect, and Reenk's "priest king" seems to be a servant of OsiOsi, from what I've seen. Maybe I'm still groggy though, I just woke up.

[Jolt]

:laugh2: Reenk Roink's the Priest-King. Would he be trying to usurp himself? >_>

[Askthepizzaguy]

[Lord Winter]

Vote: White eyes

The watchers apprentice part he claimed earlier still seems scummy even though he addmited it. Other then that I will be open to dueling phyconaught if the town deems it nessccary.

[White_eyes:D]

Let us settle this on the soil field:duel: Challenge:Lord Winter Vote:Lord Winter:clown:

[Lord Winter]

Accept: White Eyes

Unless if the town wishes me to dual someone else.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Vote: Sigurd

Just cause the RL excuse is for real, does not mean it's not being used as an excuse. I will probably slide my vote to either Winter or WE as appropriate to set up the duel properly.

Thoughts on this strategy? Thoughts on Sigurd? Thoughts FROM Sigurd?

Sheep are MUCH more attractive when you are drunk.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I would like to announce that me and my beloved sheep Gabby are getting married.


Baaaaaaah. :clown:

[Yoyoma1910]

I'll buy it:

Vote:Reenk Roink



Also, again, I'd really appreciate it if Psyconaut wouldn't mind posting the quote from the real section of his role pm.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I want to say it's a very reasonable and possible that it could be Reenk. A word of caution to this tale; if Hercules fights you will fail. In all seriousness, if it is Reenk and he can't do anything to us, perhaps we could afford to wait another round; as boring as it sounds, unfortunately. The odds aren't THAT good, and we can re-investigate people to make sure they haven't been converted, and so forth.

There has got to be a logical strategy for the path forward, I think Reenk is a possibility, but do I want to risk the game on it? Meh.

I'm dead, too... so... do your thing.

[Yoyoma1910]

My next thought is Sigurd.


He's been way to far under the radar.

[Reenk Roink]

Anyone who keeps their vote on me at the end must face me in a duel with my drinking buddy OsiOsi. :bow:

[Sasaki Kojiro]

well...enough mischief. It's a bit boring though.

Which makes you a suspect as well...

eh? "Soon, soon my cult will be strong enough to destroy you and then you will realise the ...gay ...hat ...yonder kari-oke?"

[boudica]

I agree that investigation is pretty much rendered null and void now - unless we want to wait out the days it will take for Yoyoma to investigate us all.. and himself again. It looks like White_Eyes:D will currently be lynched whether he fights with Lord Winter or not. I do not personally think either is a Usurper - despite WEs attempt to pull the wool over town's eyes regarding his role.

The only thing that seems certain to me now is that Seamus is definitely a shepherd :laugh4:

I agree that a pressure vote on Sigurd is a good idea - it's not like he hasn't lurked to victory before and if he IS mafia then he must be laughing into his ...whatever it is that the worshippers of Vode laugh into while watching the settlement string itself up by the nearest tree and fall on its own sword. It seems to me that some of you are voting WE just because Sasaki suggested it - and as far as I am aware, Sasaki was not exactly pro-town (although what his agenda is from beyond the grave - I have no idea).

Time to speak up and help out town Sigurd, whether you are a Cook, a Farmer or a Labourer or Potter - I will remove the vote if you have a satisfactory answer, or if some of the bandwaggon-y votes on White_Eyes:D are removed.

vote:Sigurd

If there is a general consensus that duelling is now the way forward - I would also be happy to pre-challenge Sigurd ...and may the best common man win.:smash:

[LittleGrizzly]

vote:Sigurd

This is the best way forward.

Other players can be questioned pressured into duels of the towns choosing, but sigurd basically isn't here, there is no way to question him or make him duel...

It would also make a lot of sense with regards to the lack of kills...

no kills = player afk
player afk = sigurd

Two of the other suspects should fight each other....

[Sigurd]

In my Mafia career, i have only lurked to victory once. It should not be the thing I am remembered by.

Now to the business at hand. It could be a good idea to lynch me.
We know that there is a surviving servant of Vode among us. He/she can't be the eye of vode as Vode stated that He was the eye of the servant and that the servant is a secret. This servant is not outwardly an usurper, which means he might be inwardly or not knowingly an usurper. If this is the case, you should lynch me as I received the vanilla merchant role. Remember the quoted text from Andres' and taka's merchant PMs? Something is not what it seems. I am not aware that I am a servant of Vode. But I have not been contacted by anyone at all in this game. Strange? Why do you not want me to join your little groups?

Maybe I am a secret, somehow a weapon that lies dormant and will be used at the right time. I consider myself protown until further notice and by "revealing" this now, it will be too late for the usurpers to "activate" me. I will not join you.

Vote: Sigurd

[naut]

Despite it being a bit of a bandwagon, I have to go with a vote for Sigurd. WE, I can see as being something, but, I'm not convinced. Intuition therefore wills:

Vote: Sigurd

[naut]

Hmm, considering Sigurd's post just then I respectfully: Unvote

[LittleGrizzly]

Do you want to post your role pm for us Sigurd...

Physconaut as well

Infact if all players univestigated could give out thier role pms it would be a big help!

And then maybe investigated players if we don't find anything in the uninvestigated pile...

:stupido: A drunk after you stopped serving him

You are The Generous Brewer

Background:

Wine is an amazing gift from the gods is it not? It makes a man's friends funnier and it makes a man's wife prettier. It makes a man's troubles hard to remember and it makes a man's pain not hurt.

You were always fond of drink ever since your mother passed away and your father gave you swigs of wine instead of hiring a wet nurse.

However, your love for booze went to a whole new level recently. After having been traveling for several weeks, you were waylaid by bandits and robbed clean. With no food and no money, you were easy pickings for the unmerciful sun, and on your way to the nearest city you collapsed from exhaustion.

Most men would have died in that situation but thankfully things were different for you. Pisuf the party god was wandering around and found you dying. He gave you wine and restored your energy and then he gave you his secret to make the most divine wine.

Since that day, to honor the god, you have been brewing wine in the manner he told you and share the blessing with others. This made you very unpopular with the bartenders where you lived as you were ruining their business so they conspired to kill you.

One night on your routine booze drops, four bartenders showed up armed with broken bottles. However, just as they were about to stab you to death, the god Pisuf showed up with a well shaken bottle of wine and sprayed the **** out of your assailants.

After the close call, you decided to leave your city and join one of the voyages to a new settlement, where you may spread drunkenness in peace.

Battle Rating:

1 – Why fight when you can drink together eh?

Abilities:

Serve Drinks: Every night, you brew your special wine and leave it in front of a settler's house or tent. Whatever they are doing that night will have to wait for a night of hitting the sauce.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)

Public Role:


I am not a cook!

:stupido: A crook

You are a Cook

Background:

The story of you becoming a cook is a long and odd one. It all began when your friends wanted to play a practical joke on you.

They told you of a mysterious place called the food pyramid where witchcraft was practiced. You were sent to infiltrate the food pyramid and gather intelligence for secret missions and other cool stuff you did as kids.

When inside you saw the most horrific occult acts imaginable. The witches inside would perform bizarre rituals where they would sacrifice animals and then skin them, remove their organs, and then chop them up. They would then toss these animals in boiling cauldrons and add intoxicating herbs; obviously some form of incense that pleased the demons the witches served.

It took you a very long time to realize that this witch coven was in fact a training camp where newly married women go. You yourself got a very good domestic education.

However, it seemed that the people in your village were not very open to the idea of a man cooking and you were mocked and ridiculed, which is why you ventured off to start a new life.

Battle Rating:

3 - Though you have no military training, your experiences in the kitchen have made you proficient with knives and given you a keen sense for vital organs.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)

WIFOM. He is willing to die, late game self-vote. Therefore, you don't use reverse psychology. If he's a townie, he's made his wishes clear. If he's mafia, you kill him.

Farming is the eternal war continuously being waged by mankind against the relentlessly invading hordes of the evil plant kingdom.

:stupido: Definition of farming

You are a Farmer

Background:

In the beginning the gods/mods decided to create a game. A mortal multiplayer on-earth role playing game called Life. So they created the Earth. Then they created the factions that would inhabit the Earth. On the one hand there were the plants, a faction of seemingly passive warriors who overwhelmed others with their sheer numbers. On the other hand there were the animals, who were much less stationary and much less numerous than the plants.

The animals at first were seriously nerfed, with only some among them being able to cause minimal damage the plants by grazing attacks. What was worse was that animal poop was plant food! For a long time, the plants pwned the animals. Plant spamming was a frequent complaint to the gods/mods.

Obviously the game was unbalanced so the gods/mods decided to introduce a new animal class: the human. The human was the most dangerous animal yet. However, the human had a long learning curve so for quite some time the plants had an easy time pwing the human players who were all noobs at that point. Their gathering attack was even less effective against the plants than the other animals' grazing attack.

Eventually however, some clans playing on certain maps unlocked a new package: the farmer. For the first time, the humans began to turn the tide against the plants, much to the chagrin of the latter who accused the humans of h4x. Now that the basic techniques of farming have been honed the learning curve is gone and over 70% of players now choose to be farmers.

Beware, however, as the gods/mods are rumored to introduce a new expansion pack called Urbanization which will nerf the farmer and force him to the margins of Life! Luckily the release date is a long time away. Until then, you will continue to rack up the points as a farmer. You did have to find a new server though, as you got banned from your old one.

Battle Rating:

2 - You don't have any type of military training and are dirt poor (actually you have a lot of dirt...) but you are ripped from toiling the fields all day and you can swing a mean hoe.

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)

In my Mafia career, i have only lurked to victory once. It should not be the thing I am remembered by.

Now to the business at hand. It could be a good idea to lynch me.
We know that there is a surviving servant of Vode among us. He/she can't be the eye of vode as Vode stated that He was the eye of the servant and that the servant is a secret. This servant is not outwardly an usurper, which means he might be inwardly or not knowingly an usurper. If this is the case, you should lynch me as I received the vanilla merchant role. Remember the quoted text from Andres' and taka's merchant PMs? Something is not what it seems. I am not aware that I am a servant of Vode. But I have not been contacted by anyone at all in this game. Strange? Why do you not want me to join your little groups?

Maybe I am a secret, somehow a weapon that lies dormant and will be used at the right time. I consider myself protown until further notice and by "revealing" this now, it will be too late for the usurpers to "activate" me. I will not join you.

Vote: Sigurd

I agree with Sigurd, lynch Sigurd.

[Andres]

Vote : Yoyoma1910

He has been fooling us all game long and I strongly suspect him having been recruited at an early stage of the game.

[Sigurd]

I can't copy paste when posting from a cell phone. I have no access to the .org from work right now. That's the reason I can' freqent here that much.
I have the merchant PM with a duel score of 1. Look for the text in Andres' merchant PM and the quoted part in taka's.

I could forward my PM to a player if you really want it. Just name the player and I'll send it away.

[LittleGrizzly]

He has been fooling us all game long and I strongly suspect him having been recruited at an early stage of the game.

If the remaining bad guy is an agent of vode then Yoyoma really doesn't make sense as the potential mafia...

at about turn 4-6 he gave us Jolt when Jolt was under no pressure and there would have been no reason to disbelieve an innocent result given to us by Yoyoma...

Yoyoma wouldn't happen to be one of the few remaining good men that need to be killed for your victory condition... would he ? ~;)

Completely agree with the point about Yoyoma / Jolt when it was made earlier. Why would Yoyoma throw the last mafia (apparently) with any kill abilities to the dogs if he was scum?

Andres is behaving in exactly the same way in this thread (posting nonsense and voting from beyond the grave etc. - basically being a pest in order to confuse skim-readers?) as he is in the Inishmore thead, where he is ...wait for it.. a deceased mafia.

..and I still don't seem to be able to mute him.:wall:

[Yoyoma1910]

I'm also the one who asked Little Grizzly to investigate Andres. So ~;p to you sir.



...


I've been ruminating this morning over my coffee. It is possible that the way to win the game is for us to stop lynching people. Perhaps Vode's secret is the cruel viciousness that glows somewhere in every man's heart, and he is the jealous and bloodthirsty fog that blurs vitreous humor in our eyes like a murderous case of glaucoma.


I don't guarantee this in the bit, but perhaps... just perhaps... the way to win is if we all stop killing each other.


so:

unvote:sigurd

vote:abstain

[Yoyoma1910]

courteously.


~;)

[Askthepizzaguy]

Trying to win another "Golden Rule" badge, eh, Yoyoma? :applause:

Very very possible.

[Yoyoma1910]

:shrug:


It's a long shot, as always... but a possibility. The town is often it's own worst enemy.

[Askthepizzaguy]

What is to be lost in the attempt at resolving the game without further bloodshed? One round.

Do we take the risk? I say the solution is not always the obvious one.

Remember Reenk's Razor from the Inishmore game. I don't always agree with Reenk, but I'll be darned if I ignore what he says. "The most complex solution..."

[Andres]

I think the game will end once the oppression by the good men stops...

[Yoyoma1910]

It would only be replaced by the oppression of the bad men.

[TinCow]

:shrug:


It's a long shot, as always... but a possibility. The town is often it's own worst enemy.

I think it's very unlikely. If the game was intended to end when people stopped lynching each other, Reenk would have allowed a No Lynch vote.

Plus there's the inconvenient tidbit that Vode specifically said that one of his "servants" was still alive.

[Yoyoma1910]

Here was Little Grizzly's result on Andres:




If you don't have a target who your heart is completely set on, would you mind investigating Andres?

got a strange result on Andres.... not a usurper but he may have killed....

You sneak into the tent of the man they call Andres and begin to search around. Immediately you notice a list with the names of the man they call Flax and Gaius Scribonius Curio crossed out. A third name is on the list, that of the self styled General named Hankerchief. It is not crossed out. Noting that the first two names were murdered, you become extremely suspicious and worried. Searching further, you find a cloth stained with dried blood. It has small tears in it, looking like it was used to clean a weapon. The most damning piece of evidence is a small talisman of Vode, you find on the ground, though it seems peculiar to you that such an object of the god of war be tossed on the ground.

Leaving the tent you only wish you had kept your sword so you could kill the usurper, but the stealthy nature. Though you are sure that Andres is affiliated with the usurpers, you offer sacrifices to the gods to give you more detailed guidance. They sway you to the opinion that he is a minor player of the plot.

What do you think ?

[Askthepizzaguy]

I think it's very unlikely. If the game was intended to end when people stopped lynching each other, Reenk would have allowed a No Lynch vote.

Plus there's the inconvenient tidbit that Vode specifically said that one of his "servants" was still alive.

If No: Lynch is illegal, then you're correct. Theory deleted.

[Andres]

What would happen if everybody abstained? A random lynch or a re-vote?

[TinCow]

The Rules:

The settlers may not vote no lynch. The settlers may abstain.

In the event of a majority of abstain votes, the matter is wholly up to the discretion of the priest king Reenk Roink.

[Reenk Roink]

To elucidate that, I will randomly select from several outcomes... :mellow:

No one could die, or many could. :laugh4:

[Askthepizzaguy]

That seems pretty... vague.... to me.


I'd be interested to know.

[TinCow]

Stay the course. Lynch Sigurd and watch WE and Lord Winter fight. Yoyoma investigates someone at night. Rinse and repeat until the game is over. This is a very simple situation, don't let yourselves get distracted by Andres and other scum trying to throw wrenches into the works.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Agreed...boring but the right move.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Agreed too. It was a stretch to begin with, but... as the maxim goes: "Reenk is Reenk"

Stay the course.

[Andres]

Agreed. Stay on course.

:captain:

[Reenk Roink]

You guys burned through the game too fast. Obviously I needed more roles. :grin:

[Jolt]

Teehee! I must imagine it'll be quite a shock when the town finds out who the remaining member is! xD

[_Tristan_]

And what makes you think I would accept a duel ?

What would it accomplish except shed the blood of an innocent townie ?

I can see where you're coming from, Andres but I'm not sure I'm willing to comply with your scummy plan

[TheFlax]

We could speed things up by having a duel, like Yoyoma1910 vs. Tristan de Castelreng or so.

Could you not be more obvious in your desire to have all the Good Men dead? :laugh4:

[Sigurd]

Alright, I am finally home and have a few minutes to spare.

This is my pm with the interesting stuff in red:

Hello Sigurd, thanks for playing :bow:


Much of the information contained in this message is not necessarily true and not available in all locations and valid for a limited time only.

:stupido: Terms and conditions
You are a Merchant

Background:

You have made your living by selling your products to other people who either do not need them or would be better off buying other products.

However, life for a merchant is tough in the big city with all the competition, which leads to drama, then politics, then violence. Because of this you got together with a few of your merchant acquaintances to decide what to do next.

Common sense eventually dictated that you all go find new settlements to live in. This way there would be less competition leading to more demand leading to more profit. You all agreed to follow this plan; all but one.

One among you decided instead to write a book about this plan and submit it to the local priest king. The priest king was so impressed by this plan’s applicability that he elevated the author to the chief administrative office and declared that he had invented a new science called Economics.

Somewhat jealous at your acquaintance’s newfound success, you nevertheless are optimistic at testing the unsaturated markets of the new settlements.

Battle Rating:

1 – Not only do you have no military training no equipment, but you have not done much in the way of physical exertion and are as soft as the silk sheet you sell. Good thing your trade requires you to convince people, because the only way you’ll come out alive from a fight is by having the other guy not fight you.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)


I have been waiting and waiting for the true PM to appear. Now we will see if the game ends.

[boudica]

Hey Sigurd!

(Please forgive my earlier comment about you lurking to victory as a matter of course - which you quite correctly picked up on and put me quite properly in my place about - I shall never again doubt you; my master)...ahem

uhh yeah! that was OOC btw - and by OsiOsi I yam druuunnnkkk tongith! yay!

... i don;t even think that generous brewer Pyschonaut PWNed me! ..Is it night? or is it day?

It's day? OK.

Sigurd: I don't buy that a Merchant role would be spiked like that by Old Reenky - bless 'is finely polished greaves! - I just think that you have been otherwise engaged,, and as such I unvote: Sigurd ;..annnd

vote: Abstain until anytning else comes up. If you DO want a fight though then HAVE AT YAAAHHH! (I may be drunk, but I'm still aware that a Framer's '2' diddles over a Merchants '1')

I can;t be bothered to correct my spelling mistakes - they amuse me. night night

[LittleGrizzly]

Funnily enough i was thinking something like the evil in every mans heart when i heard the last line... i was sure how to lynch evil lurking in peoples hearts though... so i kept it quiet...

The main idea i have at the moment is we ignore everything Andres says about the good men... secondly stay the course does seem the best option... who is the duel today ?

TBH the main reason i figured sigurd should go first is because he wouldn't be online to be questioned... now he is online im sorry we didn't give him a real mans death... in a duel*...

*much less manly than attacking a god though... ~;)

Me vs Lord Winter.....is he a farmer? or a merchant? :juggle2:

[LittleGrizzly]

You seem to be one of peoples suspects... i guess so.. there is less suspicion on seamus so perhaps he shouldn't duel...

Though thinking on it who would be harder for us to figure out were supposed to lynch than Seamus, with his role attached to pizza an all, thinking on it the game reenk part based this game around featured TinCow as an innocent character on someone else's role pm.... What you think....?

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Sigurd, I do believe that you are innocent -- unless RR has tapped you in secret as you suggest. You may be fooling me, but I'll bite.....

Unvote: Sigurd

Vote: Abstain

I am looking for popcorn to pop just before duel time.

[Lord Winter]

My PM, Sigurd's request to be lynched seems like a waste of the towns time, he's probably not mafia judging on his behavior.


Hello Lord Winter, thanks for playing :bow:


Farming is the eternal war continuously being waged by mankind against the relentlessly invading hordes of the evil plant kingdom.

:stupido: Definition of farming

You are a Farmer

Background:

In the beginning the gods/mods decided to create a game. A mortal multiplayer on-earth role playing game called Life. So they created the Earth. Then they created the factions that would inhabit the Earth. On the one hand there were the plants, a faction of seemingly passive warriors who overwhelmed others with their sheer numbers. On the other hand there were the animals, who were much less stationary and much less numerous than the plants.

The animals at first were seriously nerfed, with only some among them being able to cause minimal damage the plants by grazing attacks. What was worse was that animal poop was plant food! For a long time, the plants pwned the animals. Plant spamming was a frequent complaint to the gods/mods.

Obviously the game was unbalanced so the gods/mods decided to introduce a new animal class: the human. The human was the most dangerous animal yet. However, the human had a long learning curve so for quite some time the plants had an easy time pwing the human players who were all noobs at that point. Their gathering attack was even less effective against the plants than the other animals' grazing attack.

Eventually however, some clans playing on certain maps unlocked a new package: the farmer. For the first time, the humans began to turn the tide against the plants, much to the chagrin of the latter who accused the humans of h4x. Now that the basic techniques of farming have been honed the learning curve is gone and over 70% of players now choose to be farmers.

Beware, however, as the gods/mods are rumored to introduce a new expansion pack called Urbanization which will nerf the farmer and force him to the margins of Life! Luckily the release date is a long time away. Until then, you will continue to rack up the points as a farmer. You did have to find a new server though, as you got banned from your old one.

Battle Rating:

2 - You don't have any type of military training and are dirt poor (actually you have a lot of dirt...) but you are ripped from toiling the fields all day and you can swing a mean hoe.

Victory Conditions:

Outlast the usurpers (settler victory)

:stupido: Day 8


As the sun began to set again, the settlers gathered at the field to witness yet another fight and another execution. A man named Sigurd had shocked the settlers by stating his concern that he may be used by the usurpers, and thus he gladly welcomed death. Many settlers obliged, though later some retracted their votes as they saw no malevolence in Sigurd, only insanity.

Yet the tally still doomed Sigurd, but before his execution, there was to be a fight. Two farmers, one with the whitest eyes and the biggest grin and another who called himself a lord and loved the winter, had decided to duel for some reason.

They walked to the field, both of them grasping hoes. The man with the whitest eyes attacked first, taking wild swings at his opponent. Of course, he didn't hit a damn thing and left himself exposed to the man who called himself a lord. The lover of winter thrust his hoe and missed the man with the whitest eyes the first time, though he caught him the second and sent him tumbling to the ground. However, he missed driving the hoe for the killing blow and the man with the whitest eyes threw dirt into his opponents eyes, temporarily blinding him. He them charged the man who called himself a lord but ended up impaling himself on the hoe.

Rolling his eyes at the pathetic display of marital skill on both sides, the priest king Reenk Roink called for the damned, but as soon as Sigurd came before the priest king, he pulled out a knife and stabbed himself in the belly, uttering his last words: "You will never corrupt me Vode!"

Reenk Roink addressed his settlers: "Obviously we have not eliminated the last threat. Work harder! Do not give up after you have gotten so far!"

[boudica]

No great surprises there - just a waste of two innocent Settlers. The only thing I am certain of now is Lord Winter's status as a farmer.

[Andres]

I was ordered to post this:


:stupido:


Pissuf will be a little upset to learn that his latest recruit has chosen to join the unholy alliance between Me and Iffo. One more round and this pathetic little town with its' pathetic priest-king will be in our hands! Our fallen warriors will be resurrected and you will all suffer under their dictatorship. Iffo and Vode, Vode and Iffo!!

[taka]

ah, glad that vode plans to resurrect me

guess my student is doing well

[Jolt]

Town will probably never discover who the remaining agents are. :P

[TinCow]

Shinseikhaan - Poet - Innocent, investigated by Yoyoma
Lord Winter - Claims farmer - uninvestigated
Psychonaut - Claims role blocker
boudica - Farmer - Innocent, investigated by TinCow
Ichigo - ? - Innocent, investigated by Yoyoma
Yoyoma1910 - Eye of OsiOsi - Innocent, investigated by LG
Tristan de Castelreng - ? - Innocent based on CA investigation
Seamus Fermanagh - Claims Shephard - uninvestigated

Well, we have 3 significant suspect left. Psychonaut apparently claims to be the role blocker. The role blocker stopped Jolt from killing, which helped get Jolt lynched. Thus, Psychonaut is not likely an ally of Vode and can be ignored.

Of the remaining three, Tristan was investigated but by the unreliable CA. However, CA reported the 'innocent' results on Tristan to Yoyoma at a time when he though Yoyoma was still on his side. CA had to eliminate both the settlers and the usurpers, so CA would have had no reason to hide a usurper Tristan from Yoyoma.

That brings it down to Lord Winter and Seamus. I recommend that Seamus be investigated tonight. If he is cleared by Yoyoma, lynch Lord Winter.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I endorse this plan.

[CountArach]

Andres' post is an obvious attempt to get Yoyoma lynched. I suggest the town follows his advice...

[TinCow]

I also recommend no more dueling. If the remaining Vode target started the game in their current role, the plan I have outlined above should find them. If this plan does NOT find the remaining Vode ally, that means that either investigation results are inaccurate or that the player was converted at some point after they were investigated. In the latter situation, dueling will only decrease the amount of time left to figure it out. Duels no longer serve the interests of the town.

My new master told me that there will be only one more round. In return for my eternal soul, which I sold, I will be resurrected and I will rule this settlement for eternity, together with my comrades.

Teehee! All goes well. :D

EDIT: Forgot to say, TinCow's plan also has my seal of approval.

[TinCow]

My new master told me that there will be only one more round. In return for my eternal soul, which I sold, I will be resurrected and I will rule this settlement for eternity, together with my comrades.

How much does a soul go for these days?

[Andres]

How much does a soul go for these days?

1.000.000 gold pieces, to spend in The Settlement, after my resurrection :jumping:

[TinCow]

1.000.000 gold pieces, to spend in The Settlement, after my resurrection :jumping:

[Andres]

Eh, hm... :stupido3:

Bah, what a rip-off ~:angry:

[Jolt]

Bringing slaves from the mainland to the Settlement to rebuild it so to bring back people to repopulate it. Afterwards to buy things.

[Andres]

Bringing slaves from the mainland to the Settlement to rebuild it so to bring back people to repopulate it. Afterwards to buy things.

Yeah, and we would then become the good men...

Oh, the irony.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Investigate away. You'll find I spend WAY too much time dealing with wool on the hoof to be pulling the wool over anybody's eyes.

[TinCow]

Yeah, and we would then become the good men...

Oh, the irony.

Wouldn't you technically be Good Zombies? What with the rising from the grave bit...

Are you sure your 'fun bits' will still work after all that decay? I'm starting to suspect that you Vode folks didn't think this thing through before signing on.

[boudica]

Investigate away. You'll find I spend WAY too much time dealing with wool on the hoof to be pulling the wool over anybody's eyes.

We should remember that it was implied in the write-up that the remaining servant of Vode is potentially impervious to investigation, so it is possible we might re-investigate everyone without getting to the bottom of it: I'm not sure the best way to proceed.

I understand TC's point that given the current circumstances, duels are not in town's best interest, but aside from a successful investigation there is no other way we might get a hint of who the mafia might be.

However, the duels so far have not worked in our favour and if we are not careful they will only lend the Usurper the edge - so it really is a double-edged sword.

I've added most of the known battle-ratings (haven't checked back for some of them, maybe someone else can fill them in as I have to go out in a minute) and if you think of how tough some of our opponents have been, our weak :daisy:s are incredibly lucky to have reached our current position and I think our greatest threat at this stage is actually complacency.


Shinseikhaan - Poet - Innocent, investigated by Yoyoma - 1?
Lord Winter - Claims farmer - uninvestigated - 2
Psychonaut - Claims role blocker - 1
boudica - Farmer - Innocent, investigated by TinCow - 2
Ichigo - ? - Innocent, investigated by Yoyoma - ?
Yoyoma1910 - Eye of OsiOsi - Innocent, investigated by LG - ?
Tristan de Castelreng - ? - Innocent based on CA investigation - ?
Seamus Fermanagh - Claims Shephard - uninvestigated - 2

However, if the suspicion that we have no real way of knowing whether or not someone is innocent or not until they are lynched or get into a fight, I am inclined to agree with TinCow for now and leave the fighting to the zombies and dead mafia - who are annoyingly more noisy than those of us who remain alive :no:

If anyone can think of a clever way to use lynching without scuppering town, then I'd be prepared to go along with it, but math is not my strong point and the list needs completing. Otherwise, I guess we'll know who the mafia is when we lynch them.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I think Seamus should be lynched. It's just too fun to give one of the masons a mafia role.

[TinCow]

I understand TC's point that given the current circumstances, duels are not in town's best interest, but aside from a successful investigation there is no other way we might get a hint of who the mafia might be.

However, the duels so far have not worked in our favour and if we are not careful they will only lend the Usurper the edge - so it really is a double-edged sword.

It is very possible that investigation results were flawed to begin with or that someone got converted/recruited after they were investigated. My recommendations for future actions are partially designed to determine whether that is true. If Seamus shows up innocent and LW's lynch does not end the game, then I think we must assume that someone was converted/recruited at some point in the game. This puts all living people back on the suspect list, including Yoyoma (who we already know it is possible to convert), and makes all investigation results totally useless.

At that point, I think that we'd need to use good old fashioned behavior analysis to find our mafioso. This works best the more activity there is and the more posting there is. Thus, in that scenario we need to keep the game going for as long as possible to increase our odds of spotting a behavioral aberration. Dueling will only make the game end faster.

[edit]For the above list, role PMs I saw for Yoyoma and 'khaan long ago showed them both with duel ratings of 1.

[Reenk Roink]

:stupido:

The sun rose from her rest and revealed that no blood was spilled during the night, yet the settlers were unnerved that the portents spoke of a threat still amongst them. They began to discuss, save Tristan de Castelreng who wandered around aimlessly cursing the plebeians...

And no one recruits from the dead besides me. *eats Andres*

[Reenk Roink]

OK, I keep forgetting the drunk guys. Tristan de Castelreng wandered about the town, cursing the plebeians.

[Sigurd]

Why are the servants of Vode compelled to tell us how doomed we are?

Quite the contrary Sigurd. Town investigation is being conducted in a most pleasing manner. It pleases the townies, and it pleases Vode. :)

He now doth not like our laws
And a pleading message from many days.

Seamus came up clean.



You once again prepare the night vigil, with a sense of growing urgency to root out the last usurper. You ask the sky god who sees all to reveal to you the true nature of the man Seamus Fermanagh and are inspired as such:


Damn it Shakespeare, how'd you get out of the pen? You poop in that pool and you're gonna end up lunch meat!

:stupido: You to your sheep

You are a Shepherd

Background:

Your line of work was never easy, or glamorous, or well playing, but it was very rewarding. Until the Tax Collector began to show that is. The man literally took everything from you, your sheep, your land, your children, and to top it off he demanded conjugal relations with your wife to pay off your debt.

When this point was reached, you had had enough. The Tax Collector was eventually dismissed from his post on account of the cost of the army that needed to be sent to accompany him when he visited the countryside, and so he went off to a new settlement to continue his evil work.

You are following him to bring justice and make sure he never oppresses others like he has oppressed you. You are accompanied by a fellow shepherd who has a similar history.
