    I thought the Crewman who swabbed the decks are the "townies"?

    Then again you could just be a "Wise Guy-like role"

    Easy there, me mates. The Quartermaster be a position the captain be choosin', and revealin' only to those that get chosen.

    If I be elected the new captain, I'll keep the names of me officers secret so that our enemies will not know who they be.

Such is, at least, my hope.

    I do not say, exert yourself, fellow pirates, for my sake; think more, talk more for my sake; because for your own sake rather, I would wish it to be done, for the sake of what is more important than my wishes, a habit of self-command in you, a consideration of what is your duty, an attention to propriety, an endeavour to avoid the suspicions of others, to save your health and credit, and restore tranquillity to this ship. These are the motives which I have been pressing on you. They are very important--and sorry I will be if you cannot feel them sufficiently to act upon them. My being saved from pain is a very secondary consideration. I want you to save yourself from greater pain.

    Actually, I had planned on making the names of the First Mate and Quartermaster public. They're provided with a decent amount of innate protection at night, so I figured it wouldn't hurt anyone.

    If there's a consensus in leaving it a secret, then I won't reveal them unless the Captain wants me to.

    Best of luck with your computer, Xehh. You'll be missed.

    Anybody not in the game who is keeping up with the thread, or if anybody knows anybody who wants in - there's a spot open.

    I'd say you're right! I want to know who I can complain to if hammock is broken.

    Also it is true that they are fairly protected by the 50% chance of failure and even if they should take one for the team (die), they are replaced and the power of the role won't be lost for the town, right?!

    Reading Jane Austen is an inhumane method of execution. Not even pirates are that cruel.

    If Andres offers to do a group with you/be part of a group with you, and one of your members die, it means he is a Mafia. I learnt that from Rubicon.

    Think it a little over. Perhaps you are not so much aware as I am of the wonder that may, of the joy that must arise from a young man's foray into her works: occupied in this manner; oblivious to the outer world, and placed suddenly on a footing with the great minds of old. To think only of the pleasure which every reading must tend to create. It is all very good! Put yourself in the first time reader's place, TinCow. Consider what it would be to experience the novels with fresh eyes. They have a right to be felt for, because you evidently feel for yourself. Their feelings ought to be respected. Does it not strike you so, TinCow?

    It was the best of writing, it was the worst of writing, it was the product of creativity, it was the product of an unrelatable society, it was the epoch of literature, it was the epoch of dross, it was the vocabulary of education, it was the plotline of drivel, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, Austen had everything before her, Austen put nothing before us, we were all going direct to sleep, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the writing was so far like Dickens and Bronte, that some of the noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.
