    Look, you think this is enjoyable for me? Well, it is a little, because of the novelty, but that will wear off. Fact is we need a way to communicate, and this is good enough. It will buy us enough time and by the time someone deciphers it, secrecy shouldn't matter.

    A fair point, and worth considering. I will use it from now on when I need to convey important information.

    It's not really that hard to decipher a simple substitution puzzle. They put those sorts of things in newspapers for the public to solve for fun.

    It is at this point I'm absolutely sure you're kidding.

    Gah, bunch of posts during my delayed writing of my last post, but I can't really say I believe ATPG's claim of being a king.

    Still, if he is one, the Jotun will kill him tonight, unless he is one of them, in which case we lynch him tomorrow.

    So for the time being, unvote:ATPG

He could possibly be Loki, but he hasn't given the town special information as far as I can tell, so it doesn't really matter.

    If we can figure out who our kings and champions are, we should just kill everything with a high duel score as far as I can tell.
    The gods appear to be little help, and the rest will be Jotun.

    So unless I get info that he is important to us.
    vote:ATPG

    This is the textbook definition of scummy.

    Would you like my champion to claim and back up my story so we can lynch him too?

    Never would I do a simple a=1, b = 2 cipher. This isn't 3rd grade. But neither would I need cryptographic hash functions either. I highly doubt any of you are experts in cryptanalysis working for the NSA. This does the job. And townies and even Jotun needn't concern themselves with it.

    As to the challenges, I think it would be fairly effective to challenge suspects (who aren't kings or champions) with with basic townie roles, or possibly champions. If we see that they are more powerful than a townie, we kill em as they are either an unhelpful god or a Jotun.

    Does this make sense to you guys? Do we know who our kings and champions are (looking at you network that doesn't invite me to your fun)?
