Ok. While we are all waiting for that damned Sea Dog Andres to show up and tell what he found out last night. I ,while completely unable of human interaction, combined with utter lack of sense and manors have something for a thought.

I was lead to understand that last night was about killing inactives. What was strange to me is that we have Ice, who was inactive the first day but was not attacked during the night, which seems rather strange. Maybe someone with brighter head then mine could explain, why is that?

It appears that I have been robbed as well. I can only hope that this was not an activity sanctioned by our dear Capitan. We may be pirates, but we are supposed to be stealing gold from merchants and dirty Frenchmen, not from ourselves! When I find out who is responsible for stealing from me there will be hell to pay. Mark my words.

Perhaps they didn't want to kill an old player returning so quickly?

Kage, what did you do last night, and what did you tell people to do?

Kagemusha
09-28-2015, 15:35
I protected my treasure and i tried to set up protection groups. Ordered Andres to investigate myself and Double A and ordered Double A to blog you. Each player knows what i asked them to do. Did you try to kill someone last night and why that player?

Nothing personal, Kage. I'd just prefer a captain with whom I agree on the coordination of night actions.

Kagemusha

No problemo landlubber. I fully expect that the yesterdays opposition in the vote are todays mutineers. You lot seem like a well commanded bunch.

Oi! I didn't vote for you, but don't agree with the mutiny.

GeneralHankerchief

ATTENTION:

I believe that now is a good time to go over the mutiny mechanics.

First of all, and most importantly, a mutiny vote is in addition to the normal lynch vote, it does not replace it. If you're against a mutiny, simply do not vote for it and carry on as usual. The onus is on the mutineers to achieve a 50% +1 majority. If that majority is attained, then we will proceed directly to a new Captain election and they will also decide the fate of the person with the most votes. If that majority is not attained, then we will simply just have the regular lynch scene as usual.

Any questions, ask in this thread or PM me. :yes:

I'm not really sure Kage is acting any differently to how we'd expect a captain to, did we elect a captain or a "sit in his cabin, counting his gold, polishing his wooden leg, singing "la la la la la" honorary figurehead"? Because I want a captain. Not a figure. Head.
You expect the captain to take it upon himself to actively disrupt townie group actions1, prioritize stopping vig groups over stopping French from finding recruits2, and wants townies tied up in meaningless busywork3?

It's not how I expect a captain to act.

1Tried to set up protection groups against rumored vig targets and had Visor thrown in the brig. This is my biggest problem, and I would not have mutinied otherwise. He has not apologized or taken any steps to rectify the fact that he directly opposed townie night actions without sufficient reasoning.

2Blocked Visor because of suspected vigilantism, not because of suspected Frenchness. More concerned with stopping nightkills (which the French are demonstrably not participating in at this point) than stopping recruitment and eliminating the French (which can be accomplished through the vig groups).

3He wanted me and others to protect his officers, who already have innate protection and were extremely unlikely to be attacked. Asked people to steal gold from specific targets. Wants people to protect vig targets, resulting in 7+ players completely wasting their time.

Other:

- Micro-managing/control freak. Giving specific orders to every player in the game, even absurdly specific (not just "steal" but "steal from this particular player"). Demands everyone account for their actions to him, despite a lack of anything clearing him, while reluctant to disclose his own actions or plans.

- Power-obsessed. The first person he threw in the brig was the most vocal opponent to both his candidacy and time in office. Wants everyone to submit to him and his authority. Unwilling to work with people and act as anything less than a tyrant. On a minor note, his officers are the two people to vote him into the captaincy, showing a preference for the spoils system over meritocracy.

- Difficult. Ignores issues and concerns people have brought up, refuses to address them and condescends.

Individually, any of these is regrettable but ultimately acceptable in a captain (with the exception of point 1 about disrupting town actions). Taken together (http://dilbert.com/strip/2012-01-06), it's unacceptable.

Double A: Good alibi last night (even if it isn't the most helpful), been very level headed in our talks and discussion, hopefully scanned good by Andres. I've also played and hosted games with Double A as town recently and he is fitting the playstyle he has shown in those games.
Unless Andres' investigation turns up something naughty, I plan to vote Double A for the new captain. Both to show that I'm not opposed to Kagemusha because I voted for the other guy, but because of his actions taken as captain. I'm fine with Double A becoming captain and Andres becoming quartermaster, even though they're Kage's "people". The only request I make is that a new captain take on a mutineer as one of his officers, to demonstrate the same willingness to cooperate and work together.

09-28-2015, 16:39
Double A? Pft. Just make sure to take that PirateStation 4 out of the captains cabin if you want anything to get done.

Zack
09-28-2015, 16:41
No response to 261? You think that is all expected of the captain?

johnhughthom
09-28-2015, 16:46
Having his officers protected seems fair enough, if slightly paranoid.

I don't know anything about the micro-managing control freakiness. I didn't receive any instructions, and I don't think any of the rest of my group did either, since our orders were decided early in the first day phase before Kage was elected.

Vig+Protect orders to keep people honest have been around for ages.

Someone who wanted a position of power is power obsessed? Go figure.

Kage is always difficult. :clown:

Zack

Havimng his officers protected seems fair enough, if slightly paranoid.
It's a waste of resources that prioritizes protecting his position of power. No one was going to attack the officers, and they already have innate protection anyways.


I don't know anything about the micro-managing control freakiness. I didn't receive any instructions, and I don't think any of the rest of my group did either, since our orders were decided early in the first day phase before Kage was elected.
Anyone who didn't tell him their actions received orders to do something specific. It's not appropriate for someone uncleared to be taking such measures so early. And it's not fun.


Vig+Protect orders to keep people honest have been around for ages.
It's been used in Capo because you can still progress to more powerful roles that way, which is not the case in this game. Here it's just a waste of everyone's time.


Someone who wanted a position of power is power obsessed? Go figure.
Captaincy should be used as a tool to defeat the French, not merely as a position of power.


Kage is always difficult. :clown:
Then why elect him? :clown:

Yes. my memory is not what it used to be. Thanks for the clarification.

Personally though, I find it difficult to get behind a movement where a player acts like they are reluctantly taking part in thread, then tries to recruit me in private with clear in depth knowledge of who is behind it.

Ask someone who voted for him. :shrug:

There be the matter of the lynchin our good host mentioned. Mutiny aside someone will have to walk the plank tonight. Anyone be havin oppinions in that?

What of the vigilante groups that failed. Maybe ATPG or spaceman do be French scum and one of their partners do want to protect them by foiling the vigilante group?

Montmorency

Both Pizza and Spaceman were in protection groups. One is alive because the officers blocked Visorslash.

Let's clear this up then.
Yeah, I contacted you in private. I dispute that I appear reluctant-- I didn't vote for Kage as captain, and I refused to be marshaled by him last night when he realized there was a bloc of people who were planning independently of him. I know where my loyalties are, and they were never with him.
We're building a new world, Johnny-boy. Come along.

For the right price*, we are willing to protect your gold.

*The highest bidders' gold will be protected. We don't protect your gold for less than 3 gold.

Kage has proven imprudent, his First Mate obscure. If this body is not capable of guiding the ship, I suggest new leadership is needed. I move for a vote of no confidence in Captain Kagemusha's leadership.

Vote: Mutiny

Vote : Montmorency

A bit too eager to put yer own man in place, Frenchie.

09-28-2015, 19:34
This is unbelievable. You still refuse to even acknowledge any of my concerns. You are endangering the town cause, and I've waited long enough for you to change your tune. We need a new captain.

Vote: Mutiny

Jeez, ye're boring.

What is this "town cause" ye're talkin' about.

You try too hard to sound like some sort o' priest.

We're pirates.

I say we lynch that boring Montmorency and vig you tonight. Let the real pirates run the show, says I.

Me thinks Andres is on the money. Now if Monty was protecting Visor with spaceman and Ice. How come spaceman was attacked by Visors mutineers, while Ice who has not posted once was assigned to pair with Monty. Freeing Monty for something else with a shady alibi.Aye?

Andres
09-28-2015, 19:46
Just so you know: Golden Hands can always use an extra pair of hands.

If Gold is your thing, just contact your First and Also Best Mate.

Ice was in a protection group with me last night. I informed you of this.

I can confirm this, as I was in the same protection group.


It seems strange that so many people were robbed last night.

Not really. Stealing is available to everyone, and seems to be the default action of the selfish townie or scum. That, + the French didn't kill, so they were doing something else. Stealing being a possibility.


The Captain was guarding his gold.

Double A put someone in jail.


Wait, I thought you had an allignment scan? Or does your investigation only reveal people's actions?



What is treacherous about trying to get your hands on some unprotected gold?

However, for the paranoid among you, Golden Hands offer their services to protect your hard earned gold.

Stealling distracts from scumhunting sowes inter-town conflict. The same, incidently, is true of racketeering, which is basically what your doing with this whole "Golden Hands" thing. Ordering people to steal, and then demanding money in exchange for protection.

I've also receieved confirmation that Kage has been ordering people to steal, which has no effect, except to sow discord amongst townies and waste people's time. Basically Kage is ordering people to do anti-town things

Why can't I lynch both of you?


It was not.

Vote: Mutiny

Let's get some support for new leadership going then. Naturally I'll have a little bit of self-interest, but Kage appeared to me a little bit too kage-y earlier for my tastes. (One another thing that hasn't been mentioned yet was how close the vote was yesterday. As it is in politics, perhaps it should be from someone who doesn't want the bloody thing.)

Dunno who to vote for. It's hard to get a read on people when you don't know anyone :<

Being part of a failed vig group (or a sucessful one, for that matter) is no alibi, and Visor, you should know this


Methinks, vote:zack must be french. Footnotes are not the way of the true seafarer!

Something I feel has been glossed over - protecting and stealing/guarding treasure is not as definitive an alibi as killing. A vigkill details in the public update how many people in that group performed the action, so people in the group are held accountable for going through with it. Hell, in the last game at least one Spanish person in a vig group killed a teammate because they couldn't risk not going through with it.

Spacey, Kage, why are you guys so against random vigging? Marauding bands have a small chance of killing a scum, tis true, but protection rings have an even smaller chance of picking a good target. Furthermore, the Frenchman and Maveneers have a 0% chance of killing one of their own. If we want to win the night, we have to remember any%>0% in terms of killing off our foe.

Seems unlikely to me. Finding and recruiting potential converts and infiltrating townie groups is what the French are going to be doing at night. Stealing is a waste of time for them. Though I wouldn't be surprised if they claim to be stealing, it was a popular Spanish lie last game.


Wait, I thought you had an allignment scan? Or does your investigation only reveal people's actions?
I actually checked the last game and the first scan was in fact a track. Additional scans needed for more in-depth results.

In addition, at any point in the day phase you may vote to mutiny. You may do this by adding in a Vote: Mutiny in with your normal vote. If over 50% of living players vote to mutiny, the Captain is lynched along with whoever has the most votes, and instead of proceeding to night, a new Captain selection process follows. If the vote is tied, the status quo remains.

Should you decide you don’t want to mutiny, you may simply write in Unvote: Mutiny at any time in the day phase. There are no official consequences for participating in a failed mutiny, but the Captain will almost surely remember those who were not loyal to him. A successful mutiny results in large amounts of treasure gained for all those who voted for the mutiny.
obligatory vote: mutiny

Partly for the gold for voting, and partly so we can have a clean slate with regards to the previous leadership team (no offence Double A, but it seems that the captain and first mate were the most involved in directing the crew, by all accounts). This saves us from second guessing who was behind the decisions made in the three days until Kage's alignment is revealed.

I don't really support either dying. I'm pretty confident Andres is town, based on his single-minded pursuit of gold. I don't know what to think of Kage, but I'd rather get over with this drama and continue on with purging the ship of our rivals. Has this sham provided anyone with a lead?

If people want to elect me captain, I have to participate in the mutiny, which had already succeeded when you put your black headband in the ring. If someone jumps off the wagon, I will too. I'd rather be captain than see potentially a scum gain the position. However, if everyone would rather have notjim than me, I'd be okay with that because he seems pretty alright.

Let's be practical about it.

There was 28 of us starting last night.
There were three vigilantee groups: One four man group, two three man groups. That's 10 people accounted for.
Then there be Andres investigatin: 11 people accounted for.
There be DoubleA blocking Visorslash: 13 people accounted for.
Kagemusha did nothing as catpain: 14 people accounted for.
Then there be protection groups: I know of two so far: 20 people accounted for.
Two people were stolen from, so there be two robbers: 22 people accounted for.

The remaining six, one or two of them be Frenchies for sure. There be no french kill last night, means they were a-recruitin - the first step being to check for susceptibility.
Maybe even three of them French, but then one of them be havin part in a group to avoid suspicion.

So I be wantin to vote for one of those six, not for Andres. The best would be the one botchin up the vigilante group, but I do not know who that be.

But you have to start somewhere, also there be gold in voting. Vote: Lissa

Monty set up a hoax protection group for Visor and put Ice there so he could hide his inactive scum buddy. The attack against spaceman was never meant to succeed as it was also one man short on purpose. Me thinks Visor is either part of the same frenchie gang, or wannabe as he allowed Ice to be hidden in the protection group and did not attack him, like the other inactive TFT. There you have it. There are your enemies, at least for those who are not sorry enough to want to serve them.

Let's be practical about it.

There was 28 of us starting last night.
There were three vigilantee groups: One four man group, two three man groups. That's 10 people accounted for.
Then there be Andres investigatin: 11 people accounted for.
There be DoubleA blocking Visorslash: 13 people accounted for.
Kagemusha did nothing as catpain: 14 people accounted for.
Then there be protection groups: I know of two so far: 20 people accounted for.
Two people were stolen from, so there be two robbers: 22 people accounted for.

The remaining six, one or two of them be Frenchies for sure. There be no french kill last night, means they were a-recruitin - the first step being to check for susceptibility.
Maybe even three of them French, but then one of them be havin part in a group to avoid suspicion.

So I be wantin to vote for one of those six, not for Andres. The best would be the one botchin up the vigilante group, but I do not know who that be.

But you have to start somewhere, also there be gold in voting. Vote: Lissa

They were probably scanning for recruits. Blindly recruiting is an incredibly risky strategy at this point.

Here's my godfather role from last game so expect something similar to this but probably stronger.

Your role is:

Spanish Special Officer

“Those who’ll play with cats must expect to be scratched.”
~ Miguel de Cervantes

For over a century, Spain’s empire in the New World has been preyed on by the other European colonial powers and the scum of the earth men they hired to carry out their work for them. In a word, they were successful at this. As Spain faced problems at home, New Spain rotted from the inside. Things have changed in the last several decades, though. With peace finally achieved in Europe, government-sanctioned privateers became a thing of the past, leaving the only real threat in the Caribbean being the pirates.

In response, the Guardacosta was formed, proving to be a far more effective method of combatting piracy than anything the Spanish had tried before. You, a proud man of Spain willing to do anything to serve his country, have risen through the ranks and now command two men designed for more… undercover operations.

The three of you were stationed on the Treasure Fleet to make sure that everything in the process went smoothly. Things were going fine until the Presence struck. In the confusion of the boarding, you and your lieutenants managed to slip aboard. Your goal now is to eliminate every last one of these miserable scumbags and return the treasure to its rightful owner: His Majesty King Philip V of Spain.

Your goal: You are an incorruptible man of Spain (more than can be said for many in the Guardacosta) and thus treasure is not a motivational factor for you at all. Your singular mission is to eliminate or subordinate every single non-Spanish affiliated person aboard the ship. You must survive with one original Guardacosta agent.

Your Lieutenants in helping you accomplish this task are Jolt and Makrell.

Powers: Every night, you may accomplish one of the following tasks:
- Investigate two persons a night to determine susceptibility to Letters of Marque. This is a unique power available only to you.
- Team up with a fellow Guardacosta agent to kill one person a night. However, if you are the only agent left, you may kill solo.
- Go out individually and offer a Letter of Marque to one person. If your target is susceptible to Letters of Marque, they will join your team and become a Guardacosta Convert. If your target is NOT susceptible, then you stand a chance of being discovered.
- Participate in town group activities (including protection).

You may NOT Abandon Ship under any circumstances. To do so is unthinkable to an honorable man of Spain such as yourself.

Additionally, your officer training has served you well. The first time you are attacked in the first three nights, you will (probably) fend your attackers off regardless of numbers. However, sea life eventually takes its toll, and starting the fourth night you will lose this ability.

Lastly, before you took this mission, your superior officer mentioned that a particular Frenchman of some nobility was aboard the Treasure Fleet, apparently heading home. You lost track of him in the confusion but will still keep your eye out for him. You do not mention this to your Lieutenants as they as this information is below their pay grade and frankly, you don’t entirely trust them. Good luck!

Base gold: 110

So unless the scanning abilities has changed, we can assume that the vig groups contain at least one Maven guy? Since there were no French killings this night, they had to be busy with something else.

Day 2

The tale of Kagemusha, "The Fearsome Finn" as he was sometimes known, was an interesting one. Born in a fishing village on the coast of the Gulf of Finland, a little southwest of Helsinki, Kage felt a natural affinity towards the sea from a very early age. He liked nothing more than going to the docks and gazing out the horizon, wondering what lay beyond. When he was of an age to do so, he signed up for whatever ship crew he could, quickly becoming adept at a number of sailing tasks and features.

When Russia invaded and occupied Swedish Finland in the isoviha as part of the Great Northern War, Kage, seeing the oppression and atrocities that his countrymen were experiencing, decided to strike back the only way he knew how: he took to piracy, quickly acquiring a crew and doing his very best to plunder and disrupt Russian trade interests in that area. He acquired his nickname during this period, a direct result of him singlehandedly storming a small Russian fort along the coast, blowing it up, and taking the time to arrange the ashes into the pattern of a nude woman and rude insults directed at the occupiers afterwards.

Eventually, the situation in Finland became too dangerous and untenable for him to stay, and if Kage was being honest, he had had enough tragedy in his life. So, bidding goodbye to his crewmates, he set forth to the New World, where slates were wiped clean and opportunity was limitless. It took him nearly a year, but eventually Kage arrived in the Lesser Antilles. His skillset being what it was, he quickly joined up on a crew of a merchantman shipping goods back and forth from minor islands to the port of Barbados, but this proved to be unsatisfying. After all, engaging in partisan warfare and piracy to protect your homeland was slightly more than just one step up from being a boring trader. And so, for the second time in his life, Kage turned pirate.

Sadly, Kage was about fifty years too late - the Presence's exploits aside, piracy was clearly on the downswing in the New World as navies cracked down. His new ship's Captain was brave, but not much else, and the crew was quickly hunted down and defeated in battle by the Spanish Guardacosta. The crewmen who didn't die were left to rot in a Havana prison, awaiting execution.

Kage was going to have none of that - the devil, after all, would have an eternity to deal with him, but he wasn't ready to meet him yet. That night, as he was being delivered last rites, Kage subdued his priest, stole his clothes, and escaped, getting out of what what was previously considered to be an impregnable fortress. After robbing a villa on the outskirts of the city, Kage decided to head north, to join a pirate crew that had a track record of success. And so, Kage made his way to Nassau and joined the Presence.

The rest was history. He acquitted himself well, made friends among the crew, and took his share in the Presence's many adventures. Finally, during the retreat from New Tortuga, Kage saw his chance: the previous Captain had been left behind in the flight! Kage saw his opportunity to attain the pinnacle of pirate-dom. He would become Captain of the single most successful ship left!

It was to last all of one day. The election was extremely closely contested, and those who did not vote for Kage made it clear that they were displeased by this turn of events. Kage, the old survivor, who pretty much only had to rely on his skills at war and combat up to this point so far, now found himself in an unfamiliar position: he had to use diplomacy.

In the end, it was simply too late to teach an old dog new tricks. The loudest sailors banged the drum of mutiny early, they started politicking and making promises to get more people on board, and pretty soon more than three quarters of the entire crew was out for their newly-elected Captain's blood, apparently dissatisfied with his performance over a span of less than 24 hours to the point where they were going to commit the single-worst and dishonorable of all piratical actions, damning all of their souls to the deepest and coldest layer of Hell.

Some of the mutineers were more apologetic than others, clearly just in it for their own share of Kage's treasure. Kage gave his blessing to others, notably when Quartermaster Double A, looking conflicted, joined the vote. At the end of the day, Kage was at peace with the result. His final thoughts as he was being slashed mercilessly and unceremoniously dumped into the ocean were of large-breasted women, beer, and home.


This vacancy in the Captaincy left some administrative duties to be taken care of. Some of the initial mutineers looked more and more aghast as the day went on and more and more people piled on the bandwagon, meaning that their share of Kage's loot would be less and less.

"Right lads," said one of the mutineers, after having emerged from the cabin with a moderately-sized bag, "It looks like Kage's share of the treasure comes out to 108 gold. Now, what was the final count for mutiny again?"

"Twenty-one sailors out of twenty-eight souls aboard, meaning that each of us gets... 5 gold apiece. It not be a perfect division, so the first three to vote for the mutiny get the leftover pieces. In this case, this be Zack, Visorslash, and Lissa."

Everybody groaned. After all the effort and heartache that had been expended over the past several hours, this was the fruits of their labor? A mere five gold, six for three of them? Some were starting to wonder if this is worth it.

"Anyway, might as well resolve this sooner rather than later. The Presence needs a new Captain, so let's make it happen before we go to sleep tonight! The six sailors who not be supportin' this mutiny can't vote in this, but should we mutineers want them to take the tiller, that be fine."

"Wait!" one of them said. "What about Andres?" In the confusion of the mutiny, he had received the most votes for execution that day.

"Ah, right... well, no sense in further killin' in case we really want to, I guess. Let's decide his fate at the same time we're voting!" Everybody nodded at this, new scraps of parchment were brought out, and the second election for Captain of the Presence in as many days begun.

OOC: We are still in Day 2. Only those listed under voting for Mutiny are allowed to participate in this election. They will be deciding two things:

First of all, the new Captain. The voting procedure is the same as it was the previous day:

Elect: GeneralHankerchief

Unelect: GeneralHankerchief

Furthermore, the mutineers will also be deciding Andres's fate. You have two choices here:

Vote: Kill

I 'organised' the vigilante groups. By 'organise' I mean I pmed people and said 'hey do you wanna kill people' and they were like 'sure'.

I suggested killing lurkers first up but we got a lot of people in the groups. I wanted to kill TFT and Ice - but figured Ice was returning so we didn't end up killing him.

ATPG was going to be busy and well I couldn't kill anyone who agreed to kill people with me so I went after spaceman who had 1 post and ATPG because I didn't want to kill Gaius.

(This is a basic run down of course).

If Andres doesn't die here, he's dying tonight. So its no skin off my back.

I expect being public about this will elicit the wrong response and people will be like hurr durr, he's trying to kill people he must be french even though hes stuck his neck out a stupid amount and didn't push for captaincy despite having a reasonable chance to get it, etc, etc.

But meh. I'd look at Lissa, Ironside, Curio and ATPG next after Andres.

I can't really tell what you're meaning by sea doggiest.

3/4 of those people I think are town.

Xiahou meh. I think I saw someone call him townish. I don't agree. I need to check who that was.

There are two hours remaining. Andres (and likely Csargo) will appear to add a vote on Landlubber.

Don't be fooled - there are no alternatives to Andres and landlubber at the moment.

Andres must die.

Ha! Didn't show up at all. Wouldn't have voted landlubber. Probably visor or something like that. Generally distrust people like that.

Hey, so, if there are any power roles around that feel comfortable revealing to me, that'd be pretty cool. If you'd rather wait for my first mate to investigate me a lot, or investigate him, I wouldn't be terribly offended.

I'm also willing to work with any neutral third parties if your VCs have even the slimmest potential to not conflict with the town's, even if they're absolutely ridiculous, because I am nothing if not a student of Pizzaguy.

I'll state outright that I considered going for the captaincy - but eventually figured it'd not be worth it regardless of whether I'd get the votes or not.

If any of ye want to hunt down some frenchman, or protect some pirates, come to me, I've got people who want to do both looking for groups.

I will say thatI heavily distrust ATPG and Curio, and think Andres should be killed. There is no reason to spare Andres at all.

Agreed.

vote: kill

and if Anders survives today, I'd be up for vigging him

elect: Double A for captain. Curio's in-thread behavior has been more questionable IMO

On the other hand, I oppose killing ATPG. He's been relatively townie in thread so far, and he's intresting to have around. Let him live.


Like all the mutineers were my puppet?

I voiced what everyone was thinking. You can feel free to make me the scapegoat - but I'll keep shouting my outspoken opinions until the cows come home.

And the cows can't swim so I might be shouting a while.

now now Visor, what did we say about hearing mooing at sea? Beware the Kraken.



I 'organised' the vigilante groups. By 'organise' I mean I pmed people and said 'hey do you wanna kill people' and they were like 'sure'.

I suggested killing lurkers first up but we got a lot of people in the groups. I wanted to kill TFT and Ice - but figured Ice was returning so we didn't end up killing him.

ATPG was going to be busy and well I couldn't kill anyone who agreed to kill people with me so I went after spaceman who had 1 post and ATPG because I didn't want to kill Gaius.

(This is a basic run down of course).

If Andres doesn't die here, he's dying tonight. So its no skin off my back.

I expect being public about this will elicit the wrong response and people will be like hurr durr, he's trying to kill people he must be french even though hes stuck his neck out a stupid amount and didn't push for captaincy despite having a reasonable chance to get it, etc, etc.

But meh. I'd look at Lissa, Ironside, Curio and ATPG next after Andres.

So you were the one who targeted me.... thought so... Just don't do it again :deal2: :pirate:


Also, I said that I was traveling, and didn't have internet access. You know full well that I don't lurk D1 under normal circumstances regardless of allignment.

You go ahead and tell the group what, exactly, you think I've done which is suspect.

Hopefully it will convince someone to take a look at me or take me out at night. But more importantly than that, since I am a loyal seaman, I want to know what is the source of your suspicion, in great detail.

You deserve a little suspicion as well at this point, but let's talk about me first.

Well, I disagree with who you're supporting and you have different reads to me which is strange as we're normally on similar pages most of the time.

Some of the things you've said to me sound exactly the kind of things you would as mafia - I can't really explain this one - call it a gut read.

I'd be interested to see what suspiscion you think I deserve. I've been rather.. openly aggressive in the game wouldn't you say? What do you think that means for my alignment?

Zack stuck his neck out along with me to mutiny Kage. Monty has been rather fanatical about his beliefs. I don't feel like I'm being deceived by either of them.

Why are we suspects in your mind?

Visor
09-30-2015, 15:13
Part of the reason I trust Zack is that we both know whats its like to be lied to in tight situations - hell it happened to me last PS mafia.

He was a big supporter of the mutiny in private with me and we both went and stuck out our necks massively with no entirely solid support behind us, and a failed mutiny basically guarantees our non survival this game.

Big risks by townies which is why we're good captaincy/officer material + likely townies IMO. If we don't reach the cap we basically never get the mutiny votes - and we didn't have the guaranteed support anyway.

This game is a little different. Regular folks who gain a bunch of gold don't really have to care about the French hunt that much.

Personally as long as they let me amass some gold I don't care what they do, and I'll say that open and plain as day.

Andres appears to be on that wavelength, and frankly my only issues with Kage were related to was a centralized effort fun or not. He didn't look scummy to me and most of the reasons behind the mutiny felt contrived, as I said. And that's all well and good, if it were really just about gold. Then whatever, the Captain slot is the suicide slot at that point, and makes for easy pickings for gold hungry people.

I don't have any / many scum readings because I'm not looking for them. I am noticing certain folks behaving in a manner which seems consistent with my own viewpoint, and I think it's riskier to take that track than to make a pretense about being gung ho about groups and protections and vigs and whatnot, dressing up one's act to look like you're hunting scum seems pro-town on the surface but it's all too expected. And boring. Humorless is the word.

You don't usually find me suspicious until I do something suspicious which you can articulate. That's the big red flag. You never have simply a gut read on me.

That's bogus. That's the first thing you've actually done this game which doesn't smell right.

You being openly aggressive and swatting down the scummy idea I shared with you privately about actually working with the French to get their gold since they probably don't care about it, feels like you're forcing it.

By that I mean, I'm carefree and I can leave this ship anytime I want with my life and my meager amount of gold so far, and that would be a better ending for me than any poor schlubb that gets his neck ripped in half or stabbed or shot or cannonball-to-the-faced, regardless of how much gold they amass before they die.

You, on the other hand, feel like you're trying to put on that pro-town persona, and being aggressive or a risk taker isn't outside of your scum meta.

Your suspicion on me as a gut feeling is a lie. You know exactly what I did that's scummy and you know how to articulate it, if you're a townie.

You can assemble another vig group and kill me if you like. I'm demanding zero murder protection this game, I don't want it, don't care.

But you, Visor, are fake.
