LOL,
whatever ends up happening, you have style YLC, I like that.

Haven't we gone over this before. A TIE ONLY BENEFITS THE SITH. How does a tie benefit us in this situation? Both here are reasonable lynches, both are good choices, pick one ore the other.
FoS: God Emperor, Frozen In Ice and Seon ~;p.
:wall:
C'mon people, what'd I just say? Tie it up again, and make YLC make a choice.
Considering what you have just said prior to your sudden vote switch YLC, I will take this sudden move to kill off Ignoramus instead of letting yourself die as you mentioned previously as a strong indication of guilt.
I recommend more votes be piled on YLC rather than a tie with Ignoramus, the sudden change of heart considering his prior "oh noes I rather let myself die because I'm just a lowly initiate" is just eyebrow raising.
Unless you'd care to explain YLC?
Wait, didn't you say don't tie originally? Or was it don't change the tie?
unFOS: Frozen and God Emperor, reading their posts again, they're misguided, but not scummy.
MASSIVE FOS: dcmort93 Holy smokes, scummier than a pond full of dead fish, green algae and a family of toads.
mmm... YLC :stare:
Edit:
To sum it up, YLC basically says that he'd rather die than Ignoramus because he knows that he himself is but a lowly initiate, and that Ignoramus's commitment level which is unusual to him speaks of a possibly pro-town role (without mentioning that it could be a sith role which is one of the cases on him) and that between the two of them, YLC would rather die because he can still contribute to the town, and Ignoramus will be safe and sound.
His sudden change of heart away from this reasoning is highly disconcerting and troubling.
Well, the original point was to keep it not a tie, since YLC had taken his vote off. Basically, if YLC has his vote on Iggy, keep it a tie, if he takes it anywhere else, keep YLC at one more than Iggy. Since YLC has his vote on Iggy now, tie it up. Both have acted very scummy, and its annoying, because it keeps attention off Dcmort.
So yeah, ummmm
The day ends in slightly over 24 hours from now, lest we forget this day started 12 hours ago. :laugh4:
look if you want me dead you'll need to vig me because I have force breath. Chances are I'll die the next night unless the sith just suck hardcore
Actually makes, a boatload and a half of sense. I have glandular fever, so my brain is fried, trying to follow logic unless it is 150% clear is pretty much impossible. =(Quote:

Unvote; Vote: YLC.
I don't like ties, but, I'm willing to make a compromise here.
I might have missed something since you can point the wish for a tie down as misguided. Could you tell me why it is that town has NO gain of a tie in this situation?
In this situation we have two people; one who will be lynched today, and one who will be lynched tomorrow, if we look at the number of votes they have. If a duel suggest that Ignoramus is an important Jedi, well then he will end up dead, slain by the mafia. If the duel does not suggest this, then he will be lynched.
In other words, a duel could in theory save the life of an important power role, for some days perhaps. So why is it so absurd to wish for a tie?
Edit: or perhaps I am wrong? it's getting very late... Yes I am wrong.. please disregard this. If he is an important role he would claim his abilities before a grand bandwagon on him alone occured. . .
Ignoring me is a bad idea. :sad: You will soon realise I am the towns greatest asset.
Force Breath means they will keep you alive to waste two lynches. Not helpful at all. NOT HELPFUL.Quote:

My reasoning for insuring that I die instead of tying it up is because that'd reveal more information to the Sith, which I do not want to do, and in which a duel I know Iggy will win.
Also, HoS: DIY, for calling me an Initiate. I'd like to show me where I called myself an initiate.
so then you either believe I'm innocent or you wast to lynches and get what the mafia wants
No. You are acting scummy. Therefore likely Sith. But, now you've revealed you have force breath, if I'm infact wrong and you are Jedi it isn't helpful at all to have revealed that information because you will be left around until the end game as lynchbait, muddying the water and making harder to find the real Sith. What is called an unhelpful townie.
Yeah i'm pretty much doing that. I believe there is a number of different levels of scans, each more effective. However, there is (was last game) a way to be invisible to them, and it was a pro town and sith ability.
...
:smoking:
My experience with townies like you is you stick around, then vote wrong.
Kinda like the Caius effect or something.
Oi, forgot I had actually said that :embarassed: I retract my suspicion of DIY, I jut wish now he had included it in his statement about me.
Either or Unvote:Ignoramus
I win no matter what you guys do, you're just making this too fun.
EDIT: Gah, it was in the post - I just skimmed it because since I write it, I didn't think I needed to read it again, lol.
Ok. I'm busy this weekend and will not have a whole lot of time to contribute to discussion, but rest assured I am at least reading it.
Personally, I think this tie is a bad idea, because in a tie it is possible that neither one of them dies (due to Force Alter Damage), and clearly we wouldn't be voting for them if we wanted them to survive. In the (admittedly rare) case that they are both Sith- and YLC certainly seems like a suicidal apprentice trying to save the master- then one or both of them can use Alter Damage and keep both of them alive.
So, these duels are a bad idea unless we KNOW that:
-Our target has Force Breath (presumably it will kill through that).
-We have a strong fighter to duel this suspect and win.
NEVER try to duel two suspected Sith.
Vote: Ignoramus
I'm breaking the tie. Personally I don't think it's a good idea. We will have vigilantes and other days to get rid of YLC.
EDIT: Not cool, YLC.
Well we have 24 hours to pile votes on ignoramus.
Unvote, Vote: YLC
Doesn't matter which one we get rid of as long as there's no tie.
Ignoramus- You had BETTER reveal to pevergreen ASAP or else you're still under major suspicion.
Yes.
P.S.: Don't send the Role PM though.
:laugh4::laugh4:
So we have agreed, no tie, I die? Can we please get these proceedings over? You can all call me a terrible townie afterward, I've had my fun in just these last few pages. I've stated my case, my opinions, and the reasons for what I am doing - all of you are simply ignoring it, so there is no reasoning with any of you.
Meh. You're not a joker, so either you're a Sith who wants to save his Sith Master or a townie who wants to save someone who he believes is a stronger role. Or, you have Force Breath and are screwing with us.
Whatever the case, you won't last much longer.
Master Sky has been informed.
I'm sorry but this post just strikes me as so scummy that I must unvote: vote:dcmort93
This post is jumping to defend himself from the mere suggestion that he is scum, while at the same time claiming votes against him will not work, AND revealing himself as a power role. Either this was a very very silly post on his part, or he is absolute sith scum.
He has absolutely no reason to need to make this reveal, he is hardly being voted for and was mearly mentioned as a possible candidate for tomorrow.
Plus, he has been posting pond scum all night.
voting abstain? why would he do this, unless he is just waiting to see what will make him look better. plus he is already preoccupied with people suspecting him, this amount of paranoia would be unwarrented for a mere town role.
I'm not Sith, that will be confirmed if I do die, and I do believe Iggy has an IMPORTANT role, from what I can gather of his behavior - whether it is outright better then mine, I have no clue. All I know, is that I am innocent, I'd prefer to live, prefer Iggy to die, and prefer it if a duel was not conducted. If the town attempts to enforce a duel, I will go out of my way to insure that there is no duel, because I believe doing so is detrimental to the town, something that has been echoed REPEATEDLY, and not just by me.
Seriously people, do you just put me on ignore and then vote me based on what everyone else says?
Do not assume that you will get a second lynch vote. It's impossible to predict what will happen as a result of this lynch and the next night's results. There are plenty of things that could pop up between now and then that would distract the voting to a different person. So, it's important to pick the person that you suspect the most each round, because no matter how scummy they may seem at this moment, you may not get another shot at that person for a long time, if ever. Ties almost never work out well for the town. When they do, it's due to luck, not planning. Pick a single person and pile votes on them so that they cannot wiggle out of it with last minute vote changes.
Ig seems ok.
Others have revealed to me, I'd suggest if you have any active force powers, you do the same. I'm not cross-revealing nor am I revealing info to the town.
If Ignoramus seems okay, than that leaves vote:YLC
There are only 7 fighting stances, and no guarantee that people don't have more than one of them. So no, that wouldn't work.
Arm of Suspicion: dcmort
Because that's way to scummy for a finger, or even a hand to provide a measure of the scuminess of this post.
Well, if you're on the receiving end of a bandwagon, it's helpful to tell us you have force breath so we know that we'll be wasting a lynch by lynching you. Other than that, keep it, and most other powers, to yourself.
It has already been revealed that sith have fakeclaims...
I thought mafia games required rationality to be thrown out the window? Also, I sent pever my name, and both abilities I have - if he ever gets back on, maybe he could make a more educated decision.
Honestly, I don't want to pull the vote away to much...but anyone find it odd several people find dcmort suspicious yet have not voted for him? I find it odd that the town needs people killed off to concentrate - what's the issue? If you find someone scummy, then vote for them, just keep everything else in the background. It's not like you have mafia ADD, right?
Here - Vote: dcmort.
The way you referred to yourself in a demeaning fashion and downplaying what you could possibly offer in your current situation leads me to believe you are an initiate.
If you were a knight, you WOULD not be acting like this, because you are one of those who are in line to become a Jedi Master.
Needless to say, anything higher than an initiate would not have downplayed himself as much as you did, saying "oh I should die because Ignoramus is obviously in possession of a role greater than mine".
Only an initiate would be so confident in making that bold statement, especially if he does not know who Ignoramus is.
I believe my presumption to be legit, unless you would care to counter my reasoning.
-----------------------------
Oh nevermind, this what I get for not refreshing the page, going off to do things, and then pressing preview to a post I typed.
In any event, I agree that dcmort is a very suspicious character, his move is just downright silly for a townie because as Tincow had mentioned, he's just going to be left as lynch bait if he's innocent. Someone needs to vig him to avoid wasting lynches.
On the subject of people revealing to pever:
Sasaki is right
Beskar DID have a cover role. I fail to see the point in revealing to pever in order to determine innocence, but rather to cross-reference abilities and all that so pever can highlight any issues or errors that don't tally with what he knows about the game.Quote:
It has already been revealed that sith have fakeclaims...
This is an extremely poor move dcmort, you should not have revealed that in the first place. Right now you have merely performed an action that has hindered the town effort, I see little reason to grant you what you wish, which is to just leave you alive all game in hopes that you were just a silly townie who accidentally revealed himself to have force breath.
Still a little peeved I'm getting knocked out so early, wish I had been lucky enough to get force breath - I think I fear the overzealousness of the town compared to night kills of the mafia.
I'd cry though if I could win the duel ;_; - I'd feel betrayed by my own principles.
Unvote:, Vote:pever
Vote: Ignoramus
Can someone do an updated tally?
They both look scummy. It's hard to chose :stupido3:
This is getting confusing. Vote: YLC
Okay why is it no-one understands what the :daisy: YLC is saying/doing. I makes me :daisy:ing frustrated to read since he's acting completely logical.
unvote; vote: Zack. I can't decide who of YLC and Ignoramus I want lynched - an initiate striking me as town, or something stronger that I am as convinced about? So I'm taking the third option and loding my vote on Zack as he's either playing stupid or he's really, really deft when it comes to YLC's reasoning. Perhaps he has a reason to let the case on YLC continue despite being outargued?
Same about HoS: Nightbringer...
Sticking with my vote.
And for the sake of important iterations. Be careful of what you reveal. Powers are likely tiered.
The Sith will have knowledge of which power belongs in which tier. Saying you have force breath and it is a Jedi Master power, you just revealed to the Sith that you are at least a Jedi Master.
Sigurd, I'm sure pever isn't simply handing out any information he gathers...
@DE - thanks, at least I make sense to someone.
Unvote, Vote:Dcmort for now. I'd build up some reasoning for everyone to vote for him NOW, instead of LATER, but I'm a bit tired. Suffice it to say that if you find him scummy now, with the possibility of Force Breath, best to get it done and over with before it turns into an issue. I'd also say it's unfair to Iggy to outright kill him based upon previous games, as IMHO it borders on metagaming (as first protown zerg rushes on ATPG, Beskar, TC, Khann, etc are).
Me? Well, I just really don't want to die because for once in awhile I lack a completely insane role and am having fun at the same time. Any additional attempt to defend myself either brings up the apparently both sane yet utterly distasteful idea of roleblocking the Sith into non-recruiting submission (if possible - if not possible, then alternatives abound and we know better, sooner), or what I've already stated for the I think the 9th or 10th time.
Sigurd,
ATPG informed us that some characters start with powers from higher levels, presumably also powers like force breath.
Of course, it would not be a good idea to publicly reveal such informations anyway

Djeez, how could we possibly miss that?
Unvote; Vote : Sigurd
Vote: Sigurd
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
You are looking kinda cloaked and mysterious Andres!!!
Besides, I think Andres is pulling a mind trick on you all. I suspect he is using the anagram trick. The real title says: Dotard Hither Folks. I can only imagine what Andres makes it say.
Oh my good lord. Almost I begin to believe you town -- scumminess at this insane level is almost always a town province, you know? But then you have to go claim force breath.
Please to be providing your role name to pevergreen, dcmort. If someone tries to vig you tonight and fails, it would be good to have that on the record ahead of time.
Sigurd used a nice neat oval shape, while Andres used a scraggly pencil tool. Hence, Sigurd is scum, because good is scruffy and evil is neat. QED.
unvote, vote Sigurd
No, just kidding.
unvote, vote YLC
Diamondeye, you wanna come have *another* chat with me? I'm still waiting for the coffee to kick in, but maybe you can explain your take on YLC while that is happening.
YLC and Ignoramus need to die. Do not let them off the hook. Let's take a look at their defense in some detail.
First, we have YLC's old statement before the current lynch vote, about not trusting Rebel Jeb until he was dead:
In his first defense post, YLC explains this further:
The basic point is that he doesn't trust power roles, and will never trust them until they are proven innocent by death. At this point, he is perfectly happy voting for Ignoramus to save himself. However, he suddenly changes his mind:
He concludes (without ANY intervening information from Ignoramus) that Ignoramus is more powerful than him and will win the duel. Note that he says he's "positive" he will lose a duel. That's not a term for someone who's unsure, that's a term indicating that he knows he will lose. In addition, despite suddenly concluding, totally spontaneously, that Ignoramus (1) is stronger than him and (2) has abilities that will be shown in a duel, he decides that Ignoramus needs to be defended. Just a few posts before, YLC was saying he wasn't going to trust any power role until it was proven innocent by death. Only a few posts later he's willing to sacrifice himself to keep Ignoramus' info secret? That doesn't make any sense.
After this point, he makes a few posts where he tries to explain that he's voting to avoid dueling, not because he wants Ignoramus dead. YLC then makes another comment about how Ignoramus is more powerful than him:
This post very clearly indicates that he believes he will lose a duel to Ignoramus and that the duel will reveal useful information about Ignoramus' fighting ability. Again, Ignoramus has not made any posts about himself in this manner to justify this belief. Sasaki probes him on his beliefs about Ignoramus, and he responds with:
So, YLC believes Ignoramus is high-ranking, and YLC does not trust power roles, but YLC is determined to keep Ignoramus' abilities from being demonstrated to the rest of us. This isn't consistent. If YLC doesn't trust power roles, why is he going out of his way to keep secrets for someone he believes is a power role, particularly when he claims he is going to die either way? The townie movie in that situation is to actually work FOR the duel, so that YLC's death has meaning... providing useful information on Ignoramus as he goes out. Townies exist to die, that's our job. A useful death is the best possible death for a townie.
In addition, the all caps bit is totally weird. Iggy is not getting lynched? Why not? Sounds like YLC thinks he has Force Breath, but no one has said that in the thread.
YLC then makes more comments about Ignoramus' role:
In this post we see a few things. First, further affirmation that (1) YLC has no idea what role Ignoramus has, but (2) YLC knows he will lose a duel (no maybes in this statement, it's very certain), (3) Ignoramus has a strong role because of his interest in remaining in the game, and (4) Ignoramus is pro-town. That's a ton of information to know about Ignoramus, for someone who doesn't know his role. This last one is also new. Why doesn't YLC find Ignoramus' desire to keep the game going as suspicious as the rest of us? He's interpreting Ignoramus' post as proof that he is pro-town, as demonstrated by the statement that if Ignoramus' ability are shown in the duel it will "damage . . . the town." Despite these very specific statements and heavy defense of Ignoramus, he then does a 180 and goes after him again:
He then flips back to being an altruist and tried to defend Ignoramus again:
Again, he claims he doesn't know Ignoramus' role, but knows he will lose. He's way too certain about this for someone who has no idea about Ignoramus' role. In addition, he's once again trying to 'sacrifice' himself for the sake of someone he believes to be a strong role... even though he doesn't trust pro-town roles?
At this point, Ignoramus re-appears and claims to have a power role. This confirms YLC's totally random guess that Ignoramus was stronger and had a power role of some sort. This is Perfect Information Syndrome.
So, in summary:
1) YLC appears to have Perfect Information Syndrome with regard to Ignoramus' role (belief that he is strong, and that he has Force Breath)
2) YLC contradicts himself by stating repeatedly that he does not trust power roles, but then goes far, far out of his way to defend Ignoramus
3) YLC does not find anything suspicious about Ignoramus whatsoever, and accepts (without any proof) that Ignoramus is not only powerful, but pro-town.
4) YLC waffles on his votes between sparing Ignoramus and sparing himself.
Conclusion: YLC is scum and is likely defending his scum partner.
@ Renata, Sigurd, and Andres: XD.
pever would prefer YLC die over Ig.
Vote: YLC
In case my vote isn't currently on YLC
Unvote; Vote: YLC
For now vote: dcmort93. Im not sure if either of the top candidates is guilty. The current situation is too chaotic for my tastes. We have to rally around pevergreen and start making informed decisions, instead of shooting at the dark randomly.
I'd rather shoot at pever randomly
I don't like the situation we are in with him. He holds all the information, which is annoying.
Sith Lord: "Hi, I'm an evil Sith and I'm going to kill you and that guy with SITH written all over him is my master. Lynch me or you're doomed!"
Jedi: "No! We're going to lynch that guy over there!"
Sith Lord: "But he's but a simple Jedi Initiate, surely you wish to lynch ME, who is here to cut you in little pieces..."
Jedi: "Nope, we're going to lynch the Jedi Initiate because he said something and now he says something that seems different."
Sith Lord: But I'm evil and I want to be lynched :bigcry:
So, the general consensus is to leave Sigurd, who is dressed like a Sith, has Sith eyes and who has "Dark Lord of the Sith" written above his evil looking avatar and his apprentice Andres, who looks as evil as his master, with his Sith costume and Sith eyes, off the hook, and to lynch some poor guy based on the combination of a few vague asumptions and "analysis"?
Who am I to disagree :shrug:
Unvote ; Vote : YLC
Assuming TinCow is spot on in his analysis we should lynch Ignoramus who is the Dark Lord of the Sith and has not Force Breath to save him another day. While his new apprentice YLC does have force breath and will live yet another day. Lynch Ignoramus and then block/vig YLC.
