That's the entire south bank population, save me and Captain Blackadder, neither of whom would have been considered strong suspects, for reasons I'll leave unsaid.
Except for this late-appearing accusation against me, what was going to be the result of the next few days?
landlubber
Pizza
split
Nictel
Two investigations (cleared or caught), two lynches, two days. That's how long anyone left hiding over there had to live, unless they did something drastic. This is the something drastic. The person accusing me may even believe he is telling the truth (or gambling on it anyway), if he is KMT -- otherwise it was just an effort to prolong their own life for three (or four, given the timing) days until I flip, in the hopes that something breaks well for them in the meantime. What the person accusing me did not do, is actually scan me.

Re: A Bridge Zhou Far - Three Stars Rising | IN PLAY
Right, this further complicates the situation :thinking:
Since I'm in a rush with some deadlines tomorrow, and no additional voting is required, I'll just give my input.
Renata is entirely too hostile once she was revealed. Immediately counter-claiming ACIN as the hole in the system, and being all too vehement about it. I note that Renata was also more concerned about her own life and all (lynch ACIN! No him!) rather than presenting facts in a rational manner. ACIN even said that she warped the pm evidences (more to gain as she only had to last 1 more hour of voting).
Clearly now some bad things are going to be happening tonight (fast forward developments) because Renata was obviously trying to inject some doubt to last the remaining period of voting.

Re: A Bridge Zhou Far - Three Stars Rising | IN PLAY
You'd be hostile too if someone had faked an investigation result against you. If you truly think that would make you anything less than furious, you're fooling yourself. If you think you'd be doing any better at trying to figure out the source and the rationale for doing so, you're likewise fooling yourself.
I warped the PM evidences? What PM evidences? I posted one thing, and ACIN did not contest it -- he said he did send the order on you, but he can't contest that he did not PM it to me, as every other time he has.
Which reminds me, I left you out of the list.

The Officers shuffled off into their tent to decide who would die that night. The other Socialists could hear much arguing and raging going on inside the tent, and it was clear that the lynchee would die by only a slim margin of votes from the Officers. After about thirty minutes, the Officers emerged from their tent, and assembled in front of the Communists. Jolt stepped forward and coughed, before announcing:
"By the power bestowed to us by the Chinese Communist Party, and the Proletarian Masses of China, the Officer Corps of the People's Extraordinary Detachment has decided that landlubber is the most likely to be an Anti-People element within PEXDET."
landlubber held his head in his hands and whimpered, as Seamus drew his pistol and aimed it at landlubber, again. He glanced at his weapon to confirm that the safety was off, nodded in satisfaction, and shot landlubber in the chest.

Re: A Bridge Zhou Far - Three Stars Rising | IN PLAY
The terrain PEXDET was marching through was flat and wide; the North China plains topography allowed huge storms of dust to blow in from the Gobi, and the dust-storms in turn reduced plant life to bare bushes and scraggly shrubs. It was in this climate that Renata was waiting, a few metres from his tent, for his killers to arrive.
As she had predicted, they came from the south, and the tall man leading the group raised a hand to halt the little platoon when Renata entered his sight. Renata remained upright, as straight as an arrow, as the tall man raised a hand to keep the dust out of his eyes.
"Renata! We have proof as to your identity. I have it all written down, right here. For the very survival of the People's Extraordinary Detachment, The Party has decided that you must be liquidated."
With that, he gave a nod to his followers. They fumbled in the jackets and produced various firearms, and short clicks could just about be heard above the howling wind. They armed them and pointed them at the alleged reactionary, waiting only for the Chairman's order to open fire. But suddenly, Renata swung his right arm out so it was perfectly horizontal; he gave his attackers pause for he was holding a long, sharp sword. Brandishing his steel in an iron grip, he called out to the tall man in a withering, mocking tone.
"The Party has decided? What, all three of you?"
The tall man looked over his shoulder in horror, to see that there were indeed only two loyalists standing with him; the screaming dust had allowed the others to slip away. Turning back to his victim, he was caught completely off-guard by Renata flying towards him, sword in hand. Renata's blade whirled like an propeller, an infernal engine, and it smacked the tall man right on the cheek, and knocked him back onto the floor. His two comrades scattered and ran, and the tall man was left to rely on his wit and his gun, which was lying several metres away. Renata raised her blade, and prepared to bring it down for a deep plunge into the tall man's stomach. But luckily, the tall man managed to kick Renata in the knee, and she toppled onto the floor, allowing the tall man to escape with just his a nick in his face and a burning sense of shame.
***
autolycus had watched the whole debacle from behind Renata's tent, and tutted with disdain when the tall man was sent running for his life. Renata appeared cheerful and confident, but autolycus giggled when he thought of how comfortable Renata would be after a visit from autolycus, and his bludgeoning ways. autolycus readied his big stick in anticipation, as Renata approached, blissfully unaware of the danger that lay just behind his tent.
"Aha! Got you!"
autolycus' collar was yanked back with tremendous force, and he coughed and gagged as he was choked by the tough linen fabric. autolycus could only squeak as three burly men with swords as big as his legs dragged him back into the darkness, allowing Renata's blissful obliviousness to be happily justified. They pulled him along for about fifty yards, before they found a sufficiently secluded area behind a large boulder, where they dropped him, freeing his wind-pipe.
"You blundering idiots!" spluttered autolycus, inbetween the sobs for oxygen "I'm a bloody Officer, and I was dealing with a bona fide Counter-Revolutionary!"
The three men looked at each other, before the burliest said in a scarily patronising tone:
"We know. That's why we stopped you, and it's also why we're going to kill you right now."
autolycus went white, as the burly men raised their large swords and menacingly approached. Thankfully for the other members of PEXDET, the sandstorm's screams muffled and blended with autolycus' own.
***
A loyal Communist returned to his tent without incident. He picked up a kettle which he had left bubbling on his camp fire, and crawled inside to pour it on some delicious noodles which he had swiped from the Officer's Quarters. Only, there was already somebody inside his tent, munching on his noodles.
"That dirty bastard..." growled the Communist under his breath. "I'm going to show him a thing or two when I-"
Throwing open the tent flap and jumping inside, he was confronted not just by a man and his noodles, but the hard, callous stare of a Japanese Kempeitai Officer
"Oh crap..."whimpered the Communist "Listen, you can keep the noodles, just let me get out of..." His pathetic attempt to escape his own tent was prevented by a Japanese soldier appearing from nowhere and blocking his exit. Putting a hand to his mouth, he whimpered.
The Kempeitai Officer sighed and finished slurping his delicious noodles. "We're not here to kill you, ******. We're just hear to present you with a ...proposition."
"Yes, a proposition" nodded the Grunt.
"Because we know all about you. We know about your home back in Darien, your love of sushi, and your general appreciation of Japanese war goals." continued the Officer, with a sinister smile
The Communist dropped his now cold kettle, and held his head in his hands
"So what do you say? You can either join us, in our fight for Greater-East Asian Prosperity and the Construction of a Pan-Asian Union, or, we can shoot you in the head." said the Officer, with a sparkle in his eye
The now ex-Communist glumly nodded, as he agreed to betray his Comrades, ideology and nation.
***
The Chairman assembled the Communists, again, with a disappointed and glum look on his face.
"...I guess we better keep on marching. We're nearly at Yan'an, Comrades, but they still walk amongst us. It is a shame we don't have more people like miotas with us, loyal Communists, who, although with a bit of a too-fond taste for sushi, or M3YUZ with their appreciation of Twelve-Pointed Suns were otherwise trusted and true Marxists."

Comrades,
Have we not suffered enough? Have not enough of us died or been conscripted into the hands of the filthy Japanese, as to raise even a few questions.
Apparently there are those of us in this unit who would forsake our political ideologies, our vision of a free and equal society for all, simply to hold the glory and power for themselves. How can we, communists for chrissakes, sit around and let ourselves be ruled by an oligarchy?
I am not saying our leader is necessarily corrupt himself, I am saying he employs agents of corruption, and that by his actions he is sentencing our own troops to die.
For power? For his Japanese allies? For his own amusement?
I can only speculate the reasons for his actions, but one thing is clear to me right now.

Split and Double A have conviniently decided to try to create a revolt bandwagon early on, in the one turn where the Japanese are on the verge of surpassing us. So much that if they succeed in the revolt, then the Japanese will have equal numbers with the rest of the players, winning them the game.
I have been investigated as fully loyal and GH immediatly promoted me to the officer corps. If he isn't town, that is a pretty stupid move to do. As such, I have complete trust that GH is town, and it is obvious that anyone joining the revolt bandwagon means that it is a Japanese.

Re: A Bridge Zhou Far - Three Stars Rising | IN PLAY
We don't know all of them. The three we have positively identified are as follows:
Sigurd
Renata
Yes, I know Sigurd. I'll explain later on.
Nictel is, while not explicitly confirmed as one, is 99% Japanese. Reason being is he flaked out on Renata's vig group and was seen at autolycus's tent last night. That's about as confirming evidence as you can get without a positive identification.
Then we have split and double a, who came out of nowhere with this revolt. Split especially, who's been mostly inactive the entire game and suddenly the first post of any substance he makes is all coming out and trying to string me up. If I had to guess, I'd say that Split's been Japanese the whole time and Double A was recruited last night. But they can wait, and I'm less certain about them than the first three.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now, for Sigurd. Yes, he was Japanese the whole time. ACIN, with my approval, tried to go undercover and flush the rest of them out, pretending that he was a player aligned only to chaos. I think Sigurd suspected something though. We sacrificed Joooray for the sake of trying to take town three or four Japanese, but that time has passed. I'll provide you some of ACIN's and Sigurd's exchanges later, but from what we got out of it Sigurd had at least two comrades at the time, at least one of them being on the North Bank.
I had 7 people on Renata last night, including myself. Sigurd was one of them, I did this to keep cover. I knew he wouldn't show up. But that means three other people skimped out on orders as well. Obviously, Nictel was one of them. As for the other two, I'd bet Split and one of either ATPG, DiY, or Double A.
It is clear to me that the enemies of PEXDET are making an all-or-nothing play this turn to remove me from power. Fine, bring it on. But if you fail, then you're marked.
By the way, for any of you who are on the fence, look at who's tried to revolt against me in the past. YLC. Jap. Romanic. Unknown, but suspected KMT. Renata and Flax both had their reservations. Jap and recruited KMT. Sigurd. Jap. The list goes on and on...

Yeap. As is obvious, this turn can be make-or-break for the town as the Japanese have the chance to push for the revolt, convince a few townies and its game over. But then if they fail, everyone that tried to push for the revolt is pretty much a Japanese.
Obviously the advantage of telling you this is that now probably noone is going to try and revolt so they don't lose their anonymity. But then we're telling you this because we already know who most of the Japanese are, so no harm done in not joining on the revolt. I was actually hoping some more did join and revealed themselves (Besides Sigurd and Renata) before starting to explain this whole thing. Pity.

He gave an officership to Sigurd, an apparent Jap. While I, a townie, am left in the dark for the entire game, even though I'm potentially saving ACIN's butt every night for half the game. Or trying to vig someone, emphasis on trying.

I am concerned, I wish for our communist ways to spread. I do not wish to sell out for a position of power, but the power is not what I seek, it is simply the knowledge.

Or townie's that were convinced by Japanese...

I was actually hoping some more did join and revealed themselves (Besides Sigurd and Renata) before starting to explain this whole thing. Pity.
Again, the problem i find with this is, you know who Japanese are (allegedly) and you continue to toy with the information, on the basis of what, speculation?

I did not give any such thing to Sigurd. He isn't an officer.
Also, I'm sorry that the whole "go in deep" thing with Sigurd didn't work out. It was a gamble.

Yes, I know Sigurd. I'll explain later on.
Nictel is, while not explicitly confirmed as one, is 99% Japanese. Reason being is he flaked out on Renata's vig group and was seen at autolycus's tent last night. That's about as confirming evidence as you can get without a positive identification.
Then we have split and double a, who came out of nowhere with this revolt. Split especially, who's been mostly inactive the entire game and suddenly the first post of any substance he makes is all coming out and trying to string me up. If I had to guess, I'd say that Split's been Japanese the whole time and Double A was recruited last night. But they can wait, and I'm less certain about them than the first three.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now, for Sigurd. Yes, he was Japanese the whole time. ACIN, with my approval, tried to go undercover and flush the rest of them out, pretending that he was a player aligned only to chaos. I think Sigurd suspected something though. We sacrificed Joooray for the sake of trying to take town three or four Japanese, but that time has passed. I'll provide you some of ACIN's and Sigurd's exchanges later, but from what we got out of it Sigurd had at least two comrades at the time, at least one of them being on the North Bank.
I had 7 people on Renata last night, including myself. Sigurd was one of them, I did this to keep cover. I knew he wouldn't show up. But that means three other people skimped out on orders as well. Obviously, Nictel was one of them. As for the other two, I'd bet Split and one of either ATPG, DiY, or Double A.
It is clear to me that the enemies of PEXDET are making an all-or-nothing play this turn to remove me from power. Fine, bring it on. But if you fail, then you're marked.
By the way, for any of you who are on the fence, look at who's tried to revolt against me in the past. YLC. Jap. Romanic. Unknown, but suspected KMT. Renata and Flax both had their reservations. Jap and recruited KMT. Sigurd. Jap. The list goes on and on...
Me? No.... I am a die-hard communist through and through.
Wait just a gosh darn cotton-picking minute. You're saying that Sigurd, Renata, Nictel, Double A, Death is Yonder, Splitpersonality, and me are all conspiring against you, GH? Who else?
There seems to be an awful lot. Who is actually working with you?
You're tossing loyal comrades in with that group, GH.

We had Renata roleblocked last night.
From my understanding of the mechanics (and keep in mind, a lot of it was based off Pirate Ship Mafia, which I hosted) a roleblock would still go through even if the blocker was killed.

I can admit to seeing the benefits of keeping the town in the dark, but I am not in the loop and cannot comment further :shrug:

3/7 people sent orders in. I sent them in, and without a doubt you did. I don't see why split wouldn't send them in, but then again it's 1am, maybe I'm just tired.
Furthermore, Jolt's insistence that I'm Japanese makes me think he is Japanese over Split.

Jolt was investigated and confirmed 100% innocent by ACIN himself. He is innocent. Someone who is *not* innocent, OTOH, is Nictel.

Not sure if you're following, but you're using that argument as if I was one of the seven people in the group. Ugh. I wasn't.

Brilliant. I'm investigated as an inconvertible townie, promoted to the officer corps thanks to that, and obviously, the likely thing to think is that I'm Japanese. Especially when you're the one revolting. And not me. :yes:

At least do me the favor and say you're Japanese if you're going with this route. After all, if you survive this round, you win the game anyway.

Look, all I really want is someone more reliable put in the cop position. You say these investigations are reliable, but who scanned ACIN?
