The Revenge of Inishmore! [Concluded]

[Myrddraal]

What exactly are you requesting that I confirm?

That YLC would be role blocked for the entire night, even if he gives away the kitty that night.

[TinCow]

That YLC would be role blocked for the entire night, even if he gives away the kitty that night.

That was indeed my interpretation of how it worked, but Sasaki apparently thought differently.

[Seamus Fermanagh]

Who's had the cat in what order?

I'm more interested in the furry feline the more I think things through.


If my odd guess about the Sidhe is correct, then Wee Sean could be functioning as a Bean Sidhe -- death to any.

Why Sidhe?

Chaotix wasn't the Queen of England or Scotland. Ireland never had a high-queen. There was a queen of the Sidhe (faeries). pever hinted at a bunch of roles aside from the mafia.

So far:
5 mafiosi (one team or two competing as in the last game?)
1 kidnapper (neutralish: those protected were out of play but also safe -- agenda unknown)
2 Aussies* (our beach cricketeers -- doing conversions of some form or other)
1 priest (seems to wash out the conversions)
1 doctor (saved my pathetic behind)
1 detective (projected)
....
leaves a lot open. If Sidhe are involved, pever will have gone for both seelie and unseelie to create a second "game within a game."


My opening post specifically noted that I had had a PM from pever. I had. He was kind enough to PM me to let me know he did have to use me in the game to get close to 40 live bodies -- I'd only agreed to do backup as I'm a bit busy with various things including BR mod.

I added it to my first post to see if anyone came around sniffing. Two takers -- Secura and Renata. Both PM'd me to say that I'd "made a target of myself" with my opening post. This could be simple kindness, or.....

Dun Anghosa was tossed out for "color." It is, of course, the name given to the ancient ring fort on Inis Mor in the Arans, after which the original locale is loosely styled in the play from which pever' derived his setting. Nobody bit at that being a codeword. Oh well, can't have everything I suppose....

There's also someone capable of reviving the dead; Winston Hughes was brought back to life.

I was only trying to help... remind me not to be so kind next time. ¬_¬

Thanks, I forgot that one and I don't think it'd be combined with the doctor.

As to the other, kindness....in a mafia game...I remember being kind to one of the ressurected dead in Netherworld and not pushing too hard. Didn't live through that one now, did I? Just color me skeptical.

That's men for you! Renata and myself weren't here back when you played that game... just sayin'! :P

[TinCow]

Who's had the cat in what order?

Known: Sasaki, Tincow, YLC, and ATPG in that order, if you count ATPG's death as possession. However, I'm not sure whether Sasaki was the person who gave the cat to me, nor whether someone had it before him. I suspect there's at least one previous owner out there, either before or after Sasaki, possibly both, but no one's admitted to it. We also don't know where it is currently, if anywhere. ATPG died without giving it away, so it could be gone for good or it could have randomly jumped to someone else since that was what was supposed to have happened if anyone held on to it for too long.

In any case, it's clearly not 'Bean Sidhe' as you call it beause it did not appear to have any nasty side effects for anyone except ATPG.

Actually I have both noted in a little reminder notepad, with exactly the conclusions it seems you wanted us to draw

[Renata]

Oh that wasn't kindness, Seamus, quite the opposite. The last time I caught a slip like that (on another site), it was the mafia detective, and I got him lynched for it in the end based on how he responded. I was feeling you out. But I'm glad you were protected.

[Centurion1]

so what exactly does this cat thing do? kill people? or wreck their roles or what?

[Csargo]

It gets cat hair everywhere, and it's such a mess. Hairballs, god, the hairballs. They're everywhere. WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME pevergod? WHY?

[Yaropolk]

I think you have had enough time to respond
Vote: Yaropolk

What was the question? I sound terrbly scummy!

[pevergreen]

@pevergreen: It was actually a three-way tie, as you missed my vote against GH.

I have you and Warman voting for GH, no one else. Who did I miss? It wouldn't change the outcome anyway, its still a no lynch if its a tie.

You had forsaken me when you left your old name. Change back to Ichigo and all will be right with the world.

Thanks for cat info.

Bean Sidhe, in the old stories, only affected the Sidhe and not humans, so passing it among the humans does little, but to one of the specials it would be lethal. I'm just wondering if we've got other "teams" playing a parallel game is all. I acknowledge there is some far-fetchedness to this thought.

I'm taking it that this is all supernatural stuff?

Theres no other world aspect to this game, its all normal.

Isn't Csargo closer to his old name than Ichigo?

this game, its all normal.

[pevergreen]

Yeah, he was Ichigo second, BUT thats how I came to love him.

Oh? Laugh at me?

Writeup coming in a few.

[pevergreen]

Two men were sitting on the stone wall parting beach from road. They took swigs from their beers and discussed the telly.

"Flashbeer" said one.
"No way mate, you're dead set wrong. Its gotta be the Big Ad."
"Well, for Carlton, thats the main two."
"Don't forget the canooes!"
"Theres more just Carlton mate, what about the drop bears?"
"Actually Bundy have made the best commercial if you think about it. This one."
"Yeah, you're right. Time to make a new friend?"
"Yup, I'm liking the look of that bloke over there."

They, as they had every night so far, made a new friend.


Methos knew that they were watching him. The security cameras in his office building weren't for keeping the building secure, they were for following his every move. At this moment, the government men would be in his home: collecting skin samples, hair fibers, and lifting his fingerprints off the pennies in his penny jar. It was only a matter of time before they would take him away and perform experiments on him. Then they would shoot him in the temple and leave him in the mountains to be eaten by wolves. Soon after that, he would be replaced by a clone, an obedient one to serve their wishes. Well he wasn't going to let that happen, so when he got a red envelope in the mail without a return address, he knew it must have been filled with knockout gas. He ran to the nearest window and threw himself out. He landed on the street below and died instantly. Two architects were standing nearby when it happened, and they were shocked to see Methos lying dead on the ground. One of them turned to the other and asked if he remembered to invite Methos to the upcoming charity ball, but the second one nodded and said that he had just mailed the invitation this morning in a red envelope.

Two men were at a bar.
"Oi bru, what are the haps my friend?"
"Not much, how abouts we make a new friend?"
"I like that idea."

They spied a person and by the end of the night, the three were best friends.

A man entered the morgue. He passed over many bodies, locating the one he was looking for. Taking out a syringe, he plunged it into the body and left. Before Askthepizzaguy returned to the land of the living, the person had gone.

Renata closed her door, sighing. The sound of the door knocking caused her to go back and open it. A man was standing there. He grinned and blew hard on his bagpipes, temporarily incapacitating Renata. He smiled even harder and yelled "Get her!"
When nothing happened, he looked around and cursed the name of everyone he could think of. He left muttering about someone not showing up again.

It is now Day 5. Night will end in 23 hours, 7 minutes. (Midnight Friday 23nd April 2010 GMT +10)

[Renata]

I'd so like to blame Thermal Mercury for the attack on me, but I'm laughing too hard.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Only 2 attempts, and one failed? Lynch a lurker, and maybe pizza shouldn't have been revived.

[Methos]

I tend to agree, just in case Seamus was correct about the Seelie/Unseelie thing.

[Diamondeye]

Yes, I was Sasaki, and I am getting irritated by you constantly attacking me for no reason. There were no drop in kills last night, the night I was roleblocked by Wee Sean. I was not roadblocked the night before and I know it, because I've asked and it was clarified by pever. You just want me or one of my mason buddies to claim, and that is not happening. Stop rolefishing.

No drop in kills? Wasn't it the night (or, now, one of the nights) where someone missed his kill due to waiting for someone?

Yeah....that has worked wonders in the past...I am just keeping my mouth shut...don't like it? Vote for me

HoS: WE:D, vote: YLC

Oh and peverhost, sorry for missing the last day phase. It won't happen again

[Diamondeye]

I tend to agree, just in case Seamus was correct about the Seelie/Unseelie thing.

Disapproved by "Word of god" (ie game host).

Okay, that nixes my thoughts on ATPG. Thanks for the clarification pevergreen.

Edit: Missed a quote.

[Renata]

Sasaki, there were also only two kill attempts on Night Three, and ATPG's death at the end of that same update shouldn't have affected anything.

I do agree that going after lurkers might be as good a strategy as any for this round. Just avoid the obvious wog-bait and keep it from bandwagoning too early.

Just confirming:

All night actions take place at the same time, so if person x dies, whatever they were doing still takes place.

[Renata]

I was referring more to ATPG being at the end of the list of events for that night, but good to know.

[Secura]

So we have two recruitments, a revival, Methos' suicide and a failed attack on Renata.

Could we take the latter as a sign that one of the mafia failed to send orders? And what are we to make of Methos' suicide?

[Renata]

Pever, would it be too much to ask for a write-up summary thread? There's a lot going on.
