The House of Origin [Concluded]

[Montmorency]

One question: you and Crow are not starting partners, yes? Why are you on a first-name basis in the writeups?

Bet you can't answer that. The host's flavor, I suppose.

[autolycus]

Current tally:
Choxorn: GH, Lazy McCrow, Jarema
Montmorency: Autolycus
GH: Atpg

[autolycus]

Monty, because we were starting partners, or rather my role was. I replaced in for night 2, but my role was his partner from the beginning.

[Askthepizzaguy]

The host's flavor, I suppose.

It tastes like.... burning!

[Riedquat]

I'm not sure what happened earlier, but apparently Riedquat and edse spilled beans? What did they say, exactly?

I've said I can't not
, edse pointed out my typo/lack-of-viable-neurons-today, I corrected my post (the typo) and said some gibberish I still don't understand... that's all!

[Montmorency]

Monty, you're making no sense. The bear-skin guy is the guy who has "conquered his fear" who is clearly pizza and clearly attacked Ishmael. The guy with the mace seems highly unlikely to be the same. You're lying, and there's only one response for that.

Oh, I see it. I've got it wrong.

Then who is my attacker? Single townies both attacked and protected me on the same night? Ridiculous.

If Pizza is indeed Riedquat's killer and Ishmael's attacker, then we sort of have to lynch him. Vote: ATPG

[GeneralHankerchief]

So this is basically a "clean up Monty's mess" round?

[Montmorency]

Quid pro quo.

[autolycus]

The question is: do we clean up Monty's mess, or do we clean up Monty?

[Askthepizzaguy]

Oh, I see it. I've got it wrong.

Then who is my attacker? Single townies both attacked and protected me on the same night? Ridiculous.

If Pizza is indeed Riedquat's killer and Ishmael's attacker, then we sort of have to lynch him. Vote: ATPG

I feel so used and discarded.

At least put some dollar bills in my garter belt, you terrible, terrible man!

YOU DID THIS TO ME!!! *points at pregnant stomach full of evil*


Unvote, vote: Monty


This is nothing more than a cry of agony. I literally don't care what happens to me or when. Just make Monty die.

[Montmorency]

Well, you could lynch me, but you'd have a killer or two left to deal with - sans blocker. It's a legitimate mistake - I couldn't have known...

[TinCow]

I'm not sure what happened earlier, but apparently Riedquat and edse spilled beans? What did they say, exactly?

I am indeed a third party role, and I win a major victory by surviving. I can do a group action on the same night as I use the roleblock. It evidently works through illusion.

A minor victory is to block the same target several times and have him survive to the end.

The sour note is that the Minor VC process causes the target to become a random 50%-chance-to-kill SK. I think I survived that attack because Pizza randomly attacked me, and failed the check.

***

Note: there were three with me in that writeup. One of them was GH, who protected me solo on a lark because his role is handicapped with a very low action success rate. It's why he asked for medicinal expertise in-thread. The second was Ishmael. Double A was late by 18 minutes, but Ishmael claims his confirmation PM was within the deadline according to his time. Pizza has twice claimed that he could not participate in an action, and it began the night he was fully "Marked".

There was no indication of it earlier, but I think the process might actually mess dudes up. My understanding was that the night the process was completed would not involve a roleblock, and that the random SKing would not interfere with other actions...



I had privately revealed these things to Ishmael, Visorslash, and Pizza prior to this.

Ah yes, roles like these created by 'khaan are always good news for the town.

As I said many times before, lynch Monty.

[Montmorency]

As I said many times before,

You said it once.

All I need is to survive. If Town wins, I win. (Though if scum wins and I survive, I also win, technically...). That I've worked so hard on Town's behalf should count for something, surely?

[Askthepizzaguy]

All that matters to me is you've forsaken our lovechild.

I want a divorce!

Sorry mate.

[Montmorency]

Lynching me won't bring the game to a close, I hope you realize.

[TinCow]

I said it two times, not including this most recent one. Perhaps an exaggeration on 'many', but you've been scummy for days so exaggeration is warranted.

Yes, yes, you're very believable. No one could possibly lie about being a survivalist... Surely we must look elsewhere for scum!

[Montmorency]

So those night actions I was in don't count toward showing that I describe my role truthfully? I told all this to my partner on Day 2. This isn't some spontaneous invention.

[Riedquat]

Then who is my attacker? Single townies both attacked and protected me on the same night? Ridiculous.

Autolycus already mentioned the possibility a single doomed townie was your attacker

[Montmorency]

As far as deja vu goes, this is too funny.

[seireikhaan]

Current tally for y'allz.


Montmorency 3 (Askthepizzaguy, Autolycus, GeneralHankerchief)
Choxorn 2 (Jarema, Lazy McCrow)
Askthepizzaguy 1 (Montmorency)

Wow, these claims all seem oddly familiar...

[Montmorency]

I've demonstrated this role-block/SKization power, as well as my ability to perform in group night actions. What could I be hiding? Do you suppose I can pull off three actions a night?

[TinCow]

You could be hiding (1) powers have you decided not to use and (2) your true objective. There is no possible way for you to prove that you are limited to roleblocking and that you are only a survivalist who is not hostile to the town. You also claim that your roleblock alters other players' roles. The ability to change other players' roles is a scum power that 'khaan is fond of and has used before. It doesn't tend to be present on roles which are good for the town.

[Montmorency]

Fair enough - I can't prove that this isn't some unwieldy gambit to unleash my MacGuffin ability. I think the truly powerful 3rd-parties are dead or in hiding, though.

I really am a pretty weak role in terms of abilities, overall. I was last time as well. I just hope, for your sake, that all there's no scum left, or only one, beyond the Pizza case.

[Ishmael]

Guys, lets think clearly for a moment. Ignoring his claimed role for now, Montmorency has been acting townie all game - I've agreed that all his vig targets had appeared scummy (at the time, at least), and the attempted protection of Makrell also showed a desire to help the town. In regards to his role and claimed VC, I have seen nothing to date to indicate that he is lying about either. Let's give him the benefit of the doubt for now - kill off a known killer, organise only protection groups tonight, and see if we can clear some more townies (or possibly end this game, if the kills last night were all that's left. I doubt it, though.)

vote: ATPG

[Choxorn]

I still have no idea what's going on.

Can we lynch both ATPG and Montmorency?

Vote: ATPG

[TinCow]

Montmorency has been acting townie all game

Minus the whole "let's get the names of everyone who is likely cleared by night actions out in the public so that they can be killed" thing. If you're going to lynch ATPG, at least do us all a favor and vig Monty afterwards. If you leave him alive, by his own admission he's just going to keep creating serial killers.

[Montmorency]

by his own admission he's just going to keep creating serial killers.

By my own admission? I never said any such thing. I claimed that getting one of those SKs to survive would be a minor VC, a substitute for my own survival. Even if I wanted to mess about, how could I? It took me 3 days for Pizza, and there are just not three nights left in the game. At any rate, it would be visible in the writeup.

How about this: if I survive the lynch, I will only engage in protection work. I simply don't use that power. And get this - any other big power you can think of, from killing to converting to whatever - would be visible in the writeup. If I do anything untoward, it will be exceedingly obvious.

"let's get the names of everyone who is likely cleared by night actions out in the public so that they can be killed"

Look, perhaps it was misguided, but I assumed the 3rd-party killers would leave well enough alone - I figured in that case that the Mafia would just kill one per night, which would really not be enough to silence them all.

[Captain Blackadder]

Auto why did you kill me the struggling artist?
