Swords in the Moon [Concluded]

[GeneralHankerchief]

I hereby announce that it is my intention to challenge each and every single one of the peverviruses to a duel next round.

[Splitpersonality]

Oh daisies :(

Challenge each and every pever

Are duels verses dead players allowed? @_@

[pevergreen]

I'm sorry guys. But its great fun! Join us!

Look on the funny side of it at least.

[LittleGrizzly]

Are duels verses dead players allowed? @_@

Well errm probably not, I wouldn't worry anyway the outcome of a duel is unlikely to affect you...

Besides GH is only allowed to issue one challenge... I don't see him using it on a dead player...

[GeneralHankerchief]

I'm still going to challenge them all out of total irritation. If they're cowardly enough to not see that I seek battle with them and challenge me to a duel, then let them live with that shame.

There, that's my RP attempt for the week.

[Splitpersonality]

Then I shall challenge you GH!!

Hoo ha *karate noises*

I sincerely hope that Sigurd just couldn't find the time to participate in our game - any RL drama that might have kept him away from us is not deserved by such a fine man. Really.

I voted for him (second, before the bandwagon) after Louis' lament, missing his brilliant analytical skills, with which lament I agreed.

In my experience, Sigurd can parse posts, and assign accurate motivations, better than anyone I have seen. I think it comes from his training in formal debate; he really can 'see' and understand all sides of an issue/problem. A quiet atheist, he easily slipped into the "God exists" mode in an ancient backroom debate thread - just because it was his assigned side. He muted the opposing view in less than 4 posts/exchanges.

I hoped that seeing his name bolded, if he quickly scanned this thread, would propel him into exercising a bit of his expertise. Didn't happen.

But, I don't lose hope; Sigurd has been known to speak (sagely) from the grave, so we may yet see contributions from him.

I can relate to ajaxfetish's sorrow:

Dang it, I missed the voting. I've got to figure out how Andres' schedule fits together with mine. Looks like the deadline's while I'm at work (not a job I can post from, unfortunately), so I'll either have to post my vote well ahead of the cutoff and miss all the last-minute info and any coordination attempts, or miss out on voting. Bummer.

I can read and participate in mornings and evenings (my time; the rest of the day is work-type afk-time). It's why I'm determined to get a vote in on day-phases before work, even on flimsy evidence (ala my vote for Glen d1; sorry Dude; no 'fense). I committed to the game, so I'll play it through. I don't understand why anyone does any differently. Lynching lurkers at start-game may not have proven a wise strategy, but I admit: it makes me feel good. And I've seen lurkers come out of obscurity in the end-game, only to SURPRISE! win, then gloat about it.

It's always amazing to me at Dénouement, to learn there were other conversations, and forums, and strategies operating, independent of the game-thread - while ignorant little townies like me get snuffed one-by-one, cuz we can't guess correctly who the bad guys are. I hate that. And I love that. It's why I play.

Well. This got longer than I intended.

Sorry Sigurd. Hope all is well.

[atheotes]

Alright two requests:

1) CAN EVERYONE SEND ME THEIR DUEL RATINGS NOW PLEASE - I liked the feeling of seeing that I had 12 new unread PMs. Thanks for that whoever suggested it . Seriously though this has helped me already and I have a couple of suspicions...

Our great Lord has spoken...

check your pm...

RE: Name Changes

Put your cursor over their current avatar name in "hover" mode without clicking. Previous names are listed ( I don't think that's mod only, but....)


RE: Duels

GH, you may need to split up the work, you'll get volunteers to assist.


RE: "Defensive" response to pressure votes.

Most of the time, even as mafia, I will respond by withdrawing my pressure vote when the subject has made a useful response (like it as a defense or not). The real purpose is to draw them out and have evidence available for later. Drawing them out and hammering them anyway regardless of what they say is a bit too mafioso-like. Please note, I think Tincow and Kukri usually are pretty good about withdrawing pressure votes.

RE: Votes

Tis night, fellow samurai, sleep well.

[Thermal]

Hovering names over avatars doesn't show me there previous names, must be mod....

[GeneralHankerchief]

Nope, mod only. I'm an AM and I don't see anything.

[KukriKhan]

Why would a purple-ish pever hover over a name? Hmmm..

OOC: I've got a question for the panel that is causing me some confusion in trying to sort out roles with actions that have taken place: From the role call in the OP:

1 ninja master - 3 ninja : they get 3 kills each night

Is that read

1) "3 ninja, one of which is a master ninja"?; or
2) "1 master ninja and 3 regular ninja"?

If it is #1, then what is the probable benefit of the master ninja apart from assassinating? If it is #2, then what is the likely purpose of the master ninja?

Thanks for any clarification Clan Takeda can provide to this humble servant.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

#2 I think, and probably investigation immunity.

[Gregoshi]

Does that then mean that the master ninja's only purpose is being hard to ID? What does that do to the outcome of the game if the regular ninja are dead? Is it game over (keeping the traitors out of the equation for simplicity), townies win?

[GeneralHankerchief]

It's probably similar to a Godfather mechanic popular in other games - if and only if the ninja master is the only bad guy remaining, he can personally pick up the slack and kill.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

He may have ab-whaling ability as well. Remains to be seen.

[GeneralHankerchief]

That made my night. This Personal Finance paper is so not getting finished...

[Beskar]

Sorry for missing the end of the round and not updating my table, I was asleep.

Had an early night as night before, I went to bed very early to get up earlier to do some revision for the exam I had yesterday.

Though, what is amusing, people accused of the Stephen Asen vote to be a bandwagon, yet Sigurd vote was the bandwagon.

[seireikhaan]

I'm confused now. I was responding to the "You knew entirely well why Sigurd isn't active" bit. I assumed you were talking about something Sigurd had mentioned to other mods a while ago about having a reduced time schedule due to RL things. I assumed he had told you about this as well, hence your statement. Since this does not appear to be the case, why exactly did you think I "knew entirely well" the reason Sigurd was absent?

Well, because its been publicly posted about in at least two different games(Chicago I know), and in posts like this when Sasaki was re-promoted to moderator. Certainly anyone who's been paying attention in the gameroom(something Kukri may not have been doing and Louis almost certainly hasn't been doing) would know this.
*also, I can't see when other inviso-mods are online, I'm only an AM*

I am indeed moved by your concern about my future.

Yes, there is some logic that the nomination and the execution of Sigurd happened too quickly. Are we lucky or not?

[Beskar]

Well, you are going to kill me tonight. So it is an end to me.
