    Before a general hub-bub erupts over this, let me say: IANAL, but (heehee; how many 'net conversations start with that phrase?) it is clear to me, from a close reading of the game rules and my own role-assigning PM, that this is legal, and allowed, if unconventional.

    Re-animation of a single player is assigned to me as a power. So I clearly cannot raise Sigurd or CountArach, for example, having already raised YLC once. But nothing in the rules or my role PM state explicitly that I can only use the power once, or that I, a spirit-being, cannot send such an order in from the grave of my corporeal being, now sadly lynched by scum.

    Following the American legal paradigm of "That which is not prohibited - is allowed", I assert my privilege of resurrecting YLC again.

    p.s. in my opinion, YLC, although murdered most foully a second time, should have been given investigative results on the night of his 2nd snuff. Just saying.
    It sounds good, but unfortunately, there are a couple of flaws:

    - First of all, you are correct in saying it is not prohibited - yet. khaan has yet to even attempt to make judgment on the matter.

    - Second of all, I don't think YLC gets instantly resurrected - he may be good to go at the start of next round even if this were allowed, but by then it's the end of the game.

    Nice try, smartypants.

    Hey!! How'd you know my middle name Kukri Smartypants Khan? I've kept that a closely-guarded secret, lo' these many decades. Mom, right? She tol'ja?

    -edit-
    I admit, timing (and voting & PM orders-sending) protocol is everything in the next couple moves here.

    Makaikhaan walked back into the main hall, hoping to find that the killing had stopped. Upon entering the room, however, he deadpanned. There were but two people; GeneralHankerchief and CrazedRabbit. Upon witnessing the lord's entrance, both immediately pointed at the other, and yelling in synchronization, "HE'S THE KILLER. I'M INNOCENT!"

    Makaikhaan was stumped. This wasn't supposed to happen. However, he himself was clueless on who to kill. He stated to the two men, "One of you MUST be a killer. Hence, I will send you both off to bed for the night; whomever remains alive MUST be the killer!"

    Hoping he hadn't made a terrible mistake, Makaikhaan sent the two off, hoping this would resolve itself.



    No one was lynched!


    Tally:


    GH- 1(CR)

    CountArach (N6)

    Alive: 2

    NIGHT PHASE BEGINS! Round, as always, will be roughly 24 hours.

    I may or may not cut it off short, depending on how tomorrow unfolds for me; its family weekend at UNI.



    EDIT: Sorry Kukri, but but you're quite out of the game by this point, and besides, I dislike rule circumventers

    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Can't you just end this? Surely those two know who is going to win?

    Bummer.

    OTOH, I point out that I have not circumvented any rules. To the contrary, I have scrupulously abided by them, and urged their adherence by all, even those who made them. No offense intended.

    -edit-
    so, since I am
    out of the game by this point
    I gracefully surrender, and bid all adieu.

    I've enjoyed the time here. Really. And wish you all happiness and good luck.

    My apologies if I came across as aggressive, Kukri. You've been nothing short of exemplary throughout this game. By all means, feel free to continue contributions. I was merely pointing that, as far as the game is concerned, your character is in fact, deceased. I would be nothing short of elated for you to join in any of my future games.

    I was sort of expecting the King-to-be Makaikhaan to sort out the tie by lopping off both heads, and declaring himself the winner.
    meaning everybody losses... Now that's a twist that's hard to top.

    The wait is agonizing

    Actually, it might be a bit more fair for me this time. *looks at glyphz*

    Get ready, GH, because I am going to rock you like an (*&@$ing hurricane.

    You got off easy last night. Not this time, though.

    I'm still confused as to how he managed to kill both of us.
