And in case that wasn't clear:
:inquisitive:
This *is* an informed decision, whether it's correct or not. It's almost like you expect power roles and a pro-town locus to do all the work for us and not face deliberate misinformation in doing so. In an askthepizzaguy game. Which is based on a Sigurd game.
What are you smoking, Kagemusha?
(No offense, really, just a little cranky this morning.)
Disagree -- PIS from a Sith who knows that Ignoramus is not one (hence his behavior adequately explained by being *town* power -- would be indistinguishable in behavior from what TinCow has flagged, I think. YLC could have switched to voting himself for a time just out of hope his altruism would get him some town brownie points.
I am also suspicious of Ignoramus, but I think there are more pointers to YLC being squirrelly right now than to Ignoramus being so; and no necessary connection between the guilt of one and the guilt or innocence of the other.
No im just saying that she does not like me as a person, nothing else. My opinion is that we have to gather our forces, which pever is doing a good job already by cross checking people.
How do you know that pever is doing a good job? As far as I can tell, the only thing he has done is make a personal judgment call on whether Ignoramus' role claim is legit or not. That seems like a pretty low evidentiary bar in a game in which all the mafioso have cover roles, and forwarding of the actual role PMs is prohibited. This is not to belittle pever's analytical skills, but rather to question why you place so much faith in them.
fake faith, kage is on the lynch list too.
How do you know what i know and why should i share anything i know with you?
So you are saying his role is useless? Maybe we should just not even try to use the force ghost, because surely there cant be anything useful coming from it. You sir are just as guilty of being overly negative about this opportunity as i am being overly positive in your view.
I don't dislike you at all, Kagemusha. :(
Maybe you and i are just talking different language as any game i have played with you, you have bandwagoned me when ever there has been a bandwagon vote coming my way, no matter was i town or mafia, or where there a case against me or not.Maybe i have just misinterprated you as our ways of speech are so different? I am sorry if i have got the impression that you arent that fond of me, but thats the impression i have, which may seem to be wrong if you are saying so.
You're being oddly defensive. I never claimed to know anything about your role, nor did I ask for any information from you. What prompted those comments? I have also never protested giving information to pever, nor did I question pever's opinion of Ignoramus after he made it. That post is the only time I have even commented on the pever-nexus situation, and that post was intended to question why you appeared to be happy to blindly follow pever's lead without any information. Why are you exaggerating?
It was not my intention to say I had a superior understanding of the situation. My interpretation of your post was that you were placing more faith in pever's judgment call on Ignoramus than seemed warranted based on the information we have been given. That seemed unusual to me, so I questioned you about it. I apologize if you felt like I was lecturing you, that was certainly not what I was trying to do.
How can you not dislike a guy who smokes Marlboro LIGHT?
Anyway, Kage, you have been behaving odd in a previous round and this getting personal/upset thing is something you sometimes do when you're scum. If you're innocent, then I suggest you stop digging your own grave.
Maybe because of the laconic wording i use always, you misinterprated what i was trying to say? I am not saying that pever being force ghost will lead us to an automatic victory, but that we can find a good thing from loosing him, by exploiting how we can the fact that we now have a confirmed pro town person+ he has a vote, which might be crucial for the end game.
Andres like i said before, if my grave will be digged, because literally me " the guy behind this avatar is bit on the bad mood, then so be it." I am flattered how everything i say is analyzed so thourgh out by some of you, but if you look at the substance, you can see thati am just not at the mood to be sniped at by anyone.
I have no grudge against you. I don't even remember any particular pattern of finding you (wrongly) scummy. I was after you for a long time (wrongly) in GH's last vanilla game. I was on your side (also wrongly) at the beginning of Andres' vampire game, though by the end I had made up for my error by (correctly, though ineffectively) advocating your third lynching. And that's all I particularly remember, though I do have a vague sense of having had this conversation before.
I'm finding some of your comments scummy in this game -- whether those are in fact false positives remains to be seen. What twinged me about the latest post I commented on wasn't even so much the pevergreen stuff as the criticism of the current bandwagon, to the extent of appearing to know damn well we're deciding between two townies. Even potential PIS set aside (which it shouldn't be) that's just such a reflexively scummy thing to do, to be casually dismissive of townie effort without generating any effort of one's own.
TC: All I'm doing is making the call that out of the two of them, Ig is more useful to have alive.
Sigurd should be left alive.
Are the sith friendly towards each other this game?
I'm back now and can talk, although I guess in the States, it's getting pretty late...
I normally revere your analysis, TinCow, but I think you're jumping to conclusions here. YLC's vote-waffling and frustrated comments make perfect sense in the case that he's an avid believer that duels only benefit the sith - something I thought was commonly agreed - in that he knows he's town, he'd rather see Ignoramus dead. But since he knows he's bad at fighting, he'd rather die without fighting than potentially exposing a powerful jedi for the sith to target.
Also; 1) YLC didn't insinuate anything as to whether Ig has Force Breath, as far as I can see. How are you reaching that conclusion?! And, being an initiate, isn't it a good bet to say that Ignoramus will be more adapt at fighting than he will himself?
2) What. No. He doesn't defend Ignoramus any more than simply wanting to avoid a tie. He tries to lynch him whenever it's possible without a tie...
3) I don't think that's true. I think YLC suspects Ignoramus as much as some of us, but he realizes that if Ignoramus is a sith, a duel probably won't reveal it, whereas it would reveal some of his defenses if he is protown. I think that's reasonable. Somewhat detached from his care about his own life, but logically sound.
4) Explained above; The way I understand it (he's stated it a dozen times or so, guys!), YLC has realized that it's probably him or YLC. He just wants to avoid a tie between the two...
Duly noted :bow:
@Zack: I'm going to remove my vote from you, but you are making absolutely bagel sense in my head. You're completely obstinate in naysaying, no matter how reasonable he's being. What the :daisy:?
unvote; vote: YLC
Even if I believe him, I think this is the best way to clear YLC of suspicion. We will probably need to lynch Ignoramus as well, but seeing as he is potentially of more use than YLC from what we know, I think it's sound to remove YLC first.
Is it commonly agreed? I must have missed that conversation. It was my belief that duels only demonstrate whether someone is powerful or not, not whether they are Jedi or Sith. If someone seems to be very good at dueling, that's an indication that they're a power role of some kind. Since when is it good mafia tactics to ignore mafia-detection techniques just because they might expose a pro-town role? Town wins are always due to numerical superiority, with power roles assisting if they are skilled and lucky. The town can never count on pro-town roles bailing them out, they need to push onwards with all the tools at their disposal. The power roles needs to help where they can, and do their best to keep out of the way of the lynch. If a power role gets caught in a lynch or exposed by the town, that's the power role's fault, not the town's. In this situation, the town has a tool it can use to spot people who are unusually powerful. Townies should want to use that to get useful information, particularly if they think they're going to die anyway.
In any case, for a duel to happen, the victims have to be so scummy as to be tied for winning a lynch vote. That means they are serious lynch-bait. Lynch bait that wins a duel because they are powerful tends to remain lynch bait. Which means the mafia will edge towards leaving them alone. At least, that's how I see it, and I'm the guy who won a duel as an underdog townie in the 10th Anniversary game, and got lynched for it!
It comes from this post:
I've bolded the relevant part. What reason would he have for thinking Ignoramus would not get lynched? At that point, the vote between YLC and Ignoramus was essentially tied and there were no other contenders. The only reason to belive Ignoramus would not get lynched would be if he was immune to it.
Eh, perhaps I was reading a bit too much into his statements on this one. Still, I consider the following to be him defending Ignoramus:
If Ignoramus doesn't get lynched here, he's the safest person in the game tonight. What mafia in their right mind would kill off someone who's likely to draw a lot of votes and attention? So what if they see an ability of his or two, the odds of surviving a mafia attack when unprotected are pretty slim anyway.Quote:
I've read what he said, but his actual voting doesn't make a whole lot of sense. What's the point of trying to fine tune the vote 24 hours before it ends? That's a 1 minute before phase end move, not 1 day before phase end...Quote:
4) Explained above; The way I understand it (he's stated it a dozen times or so, guys!), YLC has realized that it's probably him or YLC. He just wants to avoid a tie between the two...
I never said I subscribed to the same view - I thought the first duel was interesting - but I read it as if many other townies thought it would benefit the mafia (mostly, or solely).
That's a fair point, I guess...Quote:

Eh, no, I just think this was YLC expressing a belief that the vote would end up going against him. Seems like he's right, by the way.Quote:

I don't know... Yeah, he's just trying his best to avoid revealing Ignoramus' potential defensive abilities. I do concede he seems a tiny bit too sure that Ignoramus is powerful, though.Quote:

I think he mostly wanted to give us the idea of what he was up to, to be honest. He's being honest about wanting to fine-tune the vote, instead of sneaky-saving himself in the last minute without prior warning.Quote:

:bow: Correct.
Thank you to DE for basically saying what I was going to say from TC. TC, if you're wondering why I would pull off such a maneuver, I was talking to ATPG our most esteemed host at the time I logged in, and in my chat with him ended up believing that I was 12/12 with Iggy and 3 hours left till deadline (I've been on vacation with sporadic internet access and although I am able to follow along, I tend to forget how much time has past between phases - Mr.Morgan does that to you). I decided it would be me over Iggy, so I gambited on a lack of activity near the deadline, at least not enough to counter my ability to sway whomever was lynched, and pull a last minute maneuver to both prevent a duel and lynch Iggy.
When ATPG informed me about 2 hours later that there was still 24 hours left...well, as you see...I'll have more to say in a bit, I need to go see my friend at college. I'll have internet access there.
I'm not making any sense? You're the one who just defended YLC's maneuvers as perfectly reasonable, and then you vote him and say he needs to go immediately.

Please point out any errors you see.
PoS = Palm of Suspicion
It is where some one did something so suspicious in the most face-palm way. For example, a sith gets roleblocked and they comment in thread "Why didn't my night kill work?"
ToS - Torso of Suspicion.
When a mafioso gets caught lying in the act.
GNoS: Glossopharyngeal nerve of suspicion.
The glossopharyngeal nerve is mostly sensory. The glossopharyngeal nerve also aids in tasting, swallowing and salivary secretions. Its superior and inferior (petrous) ganglia contain the cell bodies of pain fibers. It also projects into many different structures in the brainstem. To Glossopharyngeal Nerve of Suspicion someone, you are saying in layman's terms that their posts taste of the fresh and pungent stench of guilty scum, and it makes them salivate to think of their impending death, and that if you are wrong, you will swallow your pride and admit it.
(added to the glossary, obviously)
SoS: Salmon of Suspiscion. Used when the guiltiness of another party is almost guranteed, but the poster would rather leave him be while the town lynches another mafioso.
HroS: Herring of Suspicion. Used to chop down the mightiest mafioso in the forest. When red, also used as a distraction. Don't say it....
ToS is toe.
Theres only 3, maybe 4.
SILLY PEOPLE LETS LYNCH SITH K?

Nomi Sunrider returned from her quarters and found that the Jedi were finished discussing for today.
"Have we reached a verdict?" Nomi asked.
The Jedi took a vote, and it turned out they had decided that one of them was likely to be a Sith.
"Yes we have, your grace." said a Master Jedi.
"Who is the chosen one?" Nomi asked.
"Drafo Tylum, your grace."
The other Jedi stepped away from Drafo Tylum, making a path between Drafo and Nomi.
"Allow him to give his defense." commanded Nomi Sunrider.
Drafo Tylum: "I'm innocent, of course. I told you so, but you wouldn't listen to me. After the past several days, could I really expect anything else?"
Nomi Sunrider: "The Council has judged you to be guilty. Disarm yourself, if you have a weapon."
Drafo Tylum: "Wrong again. I don't have a lightsaber. Can't you tell?"
Nomi Sunrider: "I must admit, our ability to use the Force seems to have diminished. The Dark Side clouds everything."
Drafo Tylum: "Are you sure it is the Dark Side which is responsible for this debacle? You could always just search me. You can't really blame the force for your own mistakes."
Nomi Sunrider: "You seem rather hostile, young one."
Drafo Tylum: "I'm sorry. Am I supposed to take my impending death with gentle good humor? I'm beginning to lose my faith in your leadership, miss Sunrider. Perhaps a change of Grandmaster would be ideal. Maybe then we will actually get somewhere."
Many of the other Jedi gasped at the disrespect shown to the Grandmaster.
Nomi Sunrider: "Worry about that, I would not. Another will very soon have the opportunity to lead the Jedi in a new direction. But for now, we are doing things the way I have instructed you all to do. The wisdom of the Jedi of old, I have.... a close connection to them, I feel. Patience and sacrifice are required to prevail here, but we will prevail. I sense fear spreading among many of you... your faith in the Light Side has been shaken. Living proof, I am; it is not over until it is over. Keep your faith in the Light Side of the Force, and prevail over the Dark Side, you will."
Drafo Tylum: "Not me, your grace. You can speak with soaring rhetoric about hope and change, and your failures will still be apparent. And not one optimistic word you have spoken means anything to me, as my death approaches. You've been fooled by hope, and that foolish optimism will be our undoing."
Nomi Sunrider: "So certain are you, in our defeat? When a man is convinced he is going to fail, then fail he will. Pessimism yields no reward, and is a path to the Dark Side. Now, young one, move into the hangar bay and prepare to rejoin the Force."
Drafo Tylum: "You'll have to drag me there. I'm not going!"
Nomi Sunrider: "So be it, young one. Bring him to the hangar."
Several of the larger and stronger Jedi grabbed Drafo Tylum, and many others ignited their lightsabers. Drafo struggled to break free, but it was no use. He was hauled off and tossed through the airlock, and the hangar bay was sealed. He looked back at the Jedi with a mix of sadness and anger on his face.
Drafo shouted "I told you so" just as Nomi Sunrider threw the switch and dropped the force field. He was blown out into space where he quickly suffocated and died. His body was tractored back in to be examined. The medical droids pronounced him dead, and Nomi reached out with the force and looked for any signs of life. She felt nothing.
Nomi Sunrider: "This one was a Jedi. A troubled, undisciplined Jedi, but he was no Sith. His death was a mistake, and he was right."
Shaking her head, she turned toward the Jedi. "Those of you who are scheduled for the Knighting ceremony, come with me please. Those who are scheduled for training, please come with me. Those of you on Alpha Shift, begin first watch. Beta Shift, it is time for sleep. Tonight I want you to cover the engineering section, the weapons locker, the computer core, and the turbolifts. I will assign some who are trusted to perform security checks elsewhere in the ship. I sense that tonight, some of us will be in great danger. Watch yourselves."
With that, she and many of the other Jedi went to her quarters, and everyone else began their security rounds or turned in for the night.

Stre-don Rett was on his way back to his quarters, when he felt as though he were being followed. Ducking into one of the unoccupied rooms, he attempted to shield his presence from the minds of others. He could sense a figure moving down the hallway, searching for something.
The figure lifted a hand and reached out with the force, attempting to do.... something. But Stre-don Rett's trick mis-directed him.
The figure lifted his other hand and reached deeper into the Force, trying to do something else, but the trick worked again, and nothing happened.
The figure searched several rooms, but finally gave up and left. Stre-don chuckled at this, and exited the room he was in.
Elsewhere on the ship, in the morgue near the medical bay, a cloaked figure began searching for something... or someone.
Unknown: "Hmmm.... remarkably well-preserved. You'll do, for now."
The figure laid hands on the body of the fallen Jax Revus, and reached deep.... deep into the Netherworld of the Force. A tremor was felt by everyone on the ship, indicating a massive disturbance.
The mortal wounds on the corpse were healed immediately, and the body was brought back up to normal temperature.
Then, the cloaked being grabbed the body by the throat, and by the chest, and began concentrating. Energy poured from the being, and soon, Jax Revus' heart began to beat, and electrical activity was restored to the nervous system. The trauma of death was reversed in the brain as well, and Revus began choking and coughing, and tried to sit up, but could not move, as the powerful being gripped him by the throat, and looked into his eyes.
The figure said nothing to Jax Revus, and Jax couldn't quite see who was staring down at him, due to temporary blindness. But he could sense a powerful Force presence. The figure walked out of the morgue and disappeared into the night.
Jax Revus, disoriented, stumbled out of the morgue and tried to make his way down the hall by feeling with his hands. He was cold, and needed clothing... and food. He was incredibly hungry... and he felt weak. But, he was alive.
Ker'ral Fisid was in his quarters, when the door slid open without warning. Standing before him was a cloaked figure, with a neutral expression on their face.
Ker'ral was not expecting any visitors, and was unprepared for a fight. However, he still had one trick up his sleeve.... with a quick motion of his hands, the overhead lighting blew out and his quarters became pitch dark. He quickly ducked behind some of his furniture and masked his force presence.
The cloaked figure, undeterred, stepped into the darkness.
Unknown: "I do not need to see you.... I can still kill you, Ker'ral."
Ker'ral hoped this wasn't so, but remained still and continued to mask his presence.
The cloaked figure summoned powerful energy from the Force, and channeled it through his being. The figure turned and faced Ker'ral's last known location and began screaming.... in a way that would shatter bulkheads. The decibel level was well beyond deafening, it was life-threatening. The impact of the scream caused the furniture in the room to shatter and blow against the wall, taking Ker'ral with it. His body was broken by the sound vibration, and he died before he knew what hit him. There was never any chance of survival.
The cloaked figure examined the body to make sure he was dead, and then left his quarters before anyone could see.
And yet, someone did see a figure leaving, and heard the powerful scream. This person examined the body of Ker'ral, but left the scene in a hurry.
________________
Mace Wyyrlar returned to his quarters, when he was approached by a cloaked figure wielding a purple lightsaber.
"What are you doing here?" asked Wyyrlar, but the cloaked figure didn't respond. The attacker advanced in a standard Djem So stance, preparing to turn Wyyrlar's moves against him. But Wyyrlar did not ignite his lightsaber, if he had one. Instead, Wyyrlar reached deep into the Force, and lifted his hands toward his attacker.
In an instant, the cloaked figure was swept up in a wave of the Force, and went flying down the hallway, landing with a thud against the opposite wall a thousand meters away. He did not get back to his feet for some time.
Mace Wyyrlar simply continued to his quarters.
"Confer on you, the Rank of Jedi Knight, this council does." Nomi Sunrider said, to the figure kneeling before her. "You may be seated."
The next figure approached, and knelt before Nomi Sunrider. "Confer on you, the Rank of...."
Nomi paused.
"We're all in danger. Everyone, leave this room immediately."
Sure enough, the doors of the shuttle bay opened, and a cloaked figure stood facing the newly-promoted Jedi Knights.
Unknown figure: "All that work, for nothing...."
The figure began cackling, and tossed a thermal detonator into the middle of the crowd of Jedi, but Nomi was there to draw it into her hands with the Force. The Jedi Knights had no time to escape, as the doors to the shuttle bay were sealed just as quickly as they had been opened. The thermal detonator had a timer, and there was only three seconds remaining.
Nomi reached deep into the Force for the answer.... she felt the device with the Force, and immediately understood everything about it. She felt the experiences of the Jedi Masters of old flowing through her, and knew precisely how to disarm the device.
One second remained, and Nomi reached out with her mind and disabled the detonator, while keeping the security device from tripping and causing the explosion anyway. She continued the circuit with her mind, and the device was stable for as long as she held it. Then she grasped the explosive casing, and concentrated. In a few seconds, she tore the explosive casing off and removed the volatile materials, and handed them to one of her students. She relaxed her mind, and the circuit became incomplete, and the security device triggered, and tried to detonate the explosive. But nothing happened.
She looked at her students.
"Go. That was not the attack I saw in my vision. You are all still in very grave danger. Disperse, young Jedi."

Nomi Sunrider - Grandmaster of the Jedi Order
<object style="height: 390px; width: 640px"><param name="movie" value="https://www.youtube.com/v/FwZLaA5RoNA?version=3"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="https://www.youtube.com/v/FwZLaA5RoNA?version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="25"></object>
Nomi Sunrider called the next meeting of the Jedi Council to order, and recounted the events of the previous night, as recorded in the Security Holograms.
"We were very fortunate last night. Several of our Jedi Knights, and myself, were nearly killed in an attempt on my life. But as I told them, that was not the attack I have foreseen. That is yet to come. I tried to sleep, but the vision came again. My fate truly is unavoidable, as we have failed to stop the Sith in time. They will attack me tonight."
Nomi paused, as the Jedi began to try to think of ways to prevent it from happening.
"Don't. If I do not intervene in the next attack, many of you will die. That is why it cannot be stopped." Nomi stated.
One of the Jedi spoke up anyway.
"What if we all scatter? Won't that stop it?"
Nomi shook her head. "I have duties to perform which are too important and cannot be delayed any longer. Lives depend on it. Regardless of the circumstances, I must go ahead with the ceremony."
"Don't we know for sure that those attending the Knighting ceremony weren't Sith, now?" said another.
Nomi shook her head again. "It could have been an assassin droid made to look like a Sith. Or there could be other explanations; the Dark Side has a way of tricking you into thinking a certain way, do not be fooled. No one here has been made more or less of a suspect than before by that attack. It is best to put it out of your mind entirely, lest the dark side corrupt you."
Then she turned toward the now-clothed Jax Revus.
"Back from the dead, I see. What are your intentions?" asked Nomi Sunrider.
The other Jedi turned and noticed Jax, and were horrified. Wasn't he the Sith Apprentice who died on the first night of their journey?
Jax Revus just grinned. Several of the Jedi ignited their lightsabers, but Jax just stood there, motionless, still grinning, as if he was unafraid.
Jax Revus: "Don't you at least have to vote on something like that?"
Nomi stared at Jax, uncertain of what to do. She also knew she couldn't advise the Jedi one way or the other on this matter. Something in the Force told her to stay her tongue. This was the Council's decision, not hers.
Still, she did not return to her quarters as she usually did. She stood, watching Jax Revus, hand on her lightsaber, prepared for what might happen next.
"It's time to discuss and vote on our next action, my friends. Do as you will." Nomi said, betraying none of her emotions, but keeping her focus directly on Revus.

Round ends when 27 of you have voted and 24 hours have passed, or Monday at 11:59:59 PM Eastern USA time as usual.
I already have your results and promotions written up in advance, so you will all get them in very short order. 20 minutes at most.
Thread re-opened early. Begin Day Six.
Reanimated?? hmm. Beskar tell us about this.
Vote:Kagemusha
Seems like we should avoid an irreversible cascade of votes on beskar just now.
Well, I can put it this way. Lynching me would be a waste of effort...
On the plus side, we should work together. Afterall, I want revenge and the target isn't a townie.
If you used an active ability last night or were promoted, you should have your results.
Everyone should have their results. Have fun.
I do not believe that lynching Beskar would be a waste of time.
So, vote: Beskar
So who do you want revenge on Beskar?
The sith that killed me on the first night.
so was Sasaki lying about that?
yes, who do you want revenge on. i want full details. if anything is fishy, this vote:beskar remains where it is.
but i would also like to continue my FoS:dcmort
So tell us who that is Beskar, and we would be glad to lynch him for you. :laugh4: :2thumbsup:
Rebel Jeb told us he scanned Tincow as Sith, he was not. Now I understand it s quite likely that he could be a false scanner.
But I want him to talk:
Vote: Rebel Jeb
He explained that yesterday. Weren't you paying attention? Wait, you weren't voting yesterday. Nevermind.
Unfortunately, they never went "lolol I first nighted you". But rest assured, they are my highest priority.
Though I will be honest, I think who ever revived me, did it to escape a lynch, and if you lynch me, they will keep on doing it, since it means I will be lynched instead of them.
So you could keep on lynching me, which would mean I keep popping up like a whack-a-mole, or you could try to hunt down whoever did it, then kill me after that, which also has the benefit of that I am interested in finding my Sith killer for revenge, which means another dead Sith.
So i find it interesting to see Stre-don Rett probably got scanned twice and evaded both times, I doubt the scanners are going to pop their heads up, so i am going to go out on a whim and suggest that Stre-don Rett is vote: Ignoramus.
pevergreen, you should be able to confirm?
Also, fos: Besker, sounds like you are suggesting that there is two different sith groups?
