Now, now several here has started out as dark jedi, including you. They don't need to have fallen.
Charming. So you're a dark jedi untouchable by anything less then a Grand master or a Sith lord. Congratulations to your victory.
Not a prime recruiting candidate at all are you? Or maybe we're letting you tail away when the rest of the jedi are dead. What do you get for that one? A draw?

We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

It sure is something that no one's died in an entire day/night cycle. What that something is I have no idea, perhaps I will after I've played a few more mafia games. Anyway, it seems like Chaotix's plan is going swimmingly. There seems to be some with the opinion that going after lurkers is a bad idea, but this has been presented as a general principle without a specific argument so I'm just going to ignore it unless someone can kindly explain it to me. I also find it interesting that Psychonaut and Diana both cloaked themselves. They knew they were going to be attacked, and reasonably so, yet they never made any effort to convince people not to. They are continuing to lurk despite the fact that they are our prime suspects, which to me indicates that their lurking is a conscious strategy on their part rather than something that's caused by not having enough time to devote to the game. I continue to find them suspicious and worthy of lynching. vote: Psychonaut

Some comments later I think, but no time now.
Interesting. Well done to all still alive. Psycho does indeed seem to be a good lynch.
Yes, but they need to have at least gained Dark Side points. And the only way to gain Dark Side points as a normal Jedi is to succeed in a lightsaber kill, which clearly those two have never done. Which is why it makes more sense that they are simply Sith.
I believe the only players who started as Dark Jedi were me and Sol Jade/Belisarius II. Anyone else is either dead or started as a Padawan. I called for all Dark Jedi to reveal themselves to me, and it was certainly in their best interests to do so. If Psychonaut and Diana are somehow Dark Jedi as you propose, they have no excuse for me believing them to be Sith.
I thought Mind Control supposed to be able to affect anybody. Or did you just let something slip?Originally Posted by Ironside
And you're doing a great job of making the Jedi dead, by the way.

I think you can gain Dark Side points from Drain. So it's not exclusive to killing.
Depends on which "Drain" you mean.
Drain Knowledge is a normal power; it does not give you Dark Side points.
Force Drain is a Dark Side killing power, so you can only get it if you have Dark points, and then it gives Dark points for using it, even if it fails.
Bottom line is- the only Light Side moves that give Dark points are the Lightsaber Kill and Electric Judgement lines. These only give Dark Side points if you use them to successfully kill an innocent. The only ways to gain Dark force powers themselves are by gaining Dark points or, as you tangentially reminded me, stealing them with Drain Knowledge.
Which means that there are three logical ways for Psychonaut or Diana to have gained Force Cloak:
-They killed an innocent using a lightsaber and gained dark points. According to the write-ups, this never happened.
-They used Drain Knowledge to steal it from either me, Belisarius, Joooray, or Ignoramus. Nobody stole it from me. I doubt anybody had Drain Knowledge while Belisarius was alive. Joooray and Ignoramus both had Force Cloak up until the point that they died.
-They are Sith and already on the Dark Side.
Personally, I think the last answer seems the most logical to me. Occam's Razor, lack of evidence against, and all that.

He's not my Sith Lord, he's much more powerful.
Tbh, pever might well be right. We don't get a big list that names what powers are dark or not.
Were did you read mind control into that one?
I'll grant you that your method was a moderate nuisance, but we got patience. ATPG did balance the game on that the town might actually come up with a strategy.

Ok that's enough of that. Let's respect each other, gentlemen. That's directed at you, choxorn; he's asked people not to do that enough times.
It's part of sportsmanship to respect such a simple request.
Also, I don't think it's necessary to announce that we're putting people on the ignore list either, pevergreen. It's enough to simply do it. Announcing that you're going to ignore someone just adds fuel to an already silly situation.
If we're going to keep playing, let's do it respectfully, and have fun. If we're not having fun, it's not necessary to keep playing.

Bane Anded noted that time had expired, and asked for a vote.
"Have we reached a verdict?" Anded asked.
The votes were counted.
"Yes we have, Grandmaster" said one of the Jedi.
"Who has been found guilty?"
"Bos Dhi Kao, your grace. We are certain this one is a Sith!"
"Very well. Let's hear what he has to say for himself."
Bos Dhi Kao: "This is an outrage! I haven't killed anyone! You've been fooled once again by the blind leader. There's no other way to say it but to just say it: I AM NOT A SITH. YOU HAVE FAILED. We're all doomed now, so good job. I really appreciate being dragged to my death for absolutely no reason at all. The Dark Side has blinded you all! You think you've won, but it has consumed you all! The light has been extinguished, there's nothing left!
I was the last of the light side Jedi! Believe me when I say this, NOTHING CAN STOP THE SITH NOW!!!"
The Jedi Council seemed slightly shaken by this revelation.
Bane Anded: "What are you saying?"
Bos Dhi Kao: "You've destroyed the Jedi Order, Bane! You've succeeded in twisting them all into your little puppets, little agents of evil, pawns of the Dark Side.... the real Jedi Order has been destroyed.... everything that it stood for is now gone. You've destroyed us all, Bane Anded! You've destroyed us all!"
Bane Anded: "Oh Master Kao, I truly grow weary of your lies, and more lies, and more lies and even more lies. Why don't you finally just shut up? You've been caught. It's done. Stop trying to weasel out of it, you're not fooling anyone you know, least of all me."
Bos Dhi Kao: "Fine! Fine! Let's all get ourselves blown into space! How does that sound? I might not be able to save the Jedi Order, but I'm certainly not going to allow the Sith to win. Open sesame!"
With that, master Bos Dhi Kao used the force to rip the outer hangar bay door clean off of the ship and send it hurtling into space, leaving only the force field between the remainder of the Jedi Council and the vacuum of space.
Bos Dhi Kao: "So, what's it going to be, Bane? How would you like to see all your dark puppets get destroyed, and you along with them? I could destroy you all with a single thought. You lack the power to threaten me, so you'd better just back off."
Bane Anded: "Yes, that's something a Jedi would say. Your performance has been downright entertaining, but now all you're doing is making me laugh."
Bos Dhi Kao: "Oh.... I think I'm going to enjoy killing you most of all, you smug little insect....."

That one was for cutting off my hand, Psychonaut.
Only one left to go. Check, Sith. One more move and I will have Checkmate.
Well, pevergreen? Do you trust me now?
I'll send everyone instructions for their night orders via PM, momentarily.

Congratulations to everyone, this was truely a group victory. Chaotix came up with the plan, everyone followed their orders and, just like that, we've got the Sith Lord that's been plagueing us from the beginning of the game, Beskar and Ironside's master. Now we have a chance of victory tonight, provided we can kill the former apprentice and he/she can't find someone to recruit. Everyone, please continue to follow the Grandmaster's orders.

No, as I said, it was Sigurd. We needed to lynch Sigurd, and we did.
Now, I hope your plan is to kill Khaan...
Do I trust you? No. But as I have said for the last number of days, I never believed you were the sith lord. It was a possibility that you were the apprentice.
Now hurry up and end the game, I honestly have no idea who the apprentice is.
As for Cecil's post, I won't comment...
I gotcha, you were trying to guess the names of the Sith Lords. I thought it would be Darth Fafnesbane, but we both had the right idea. After Fermanagh and Aggony, I'd guess the next apprentice to be... Hankerchief? Or perhaps Csar. Or maybe even Khaan as you suggested.
