I repeat, IronyOwl, claim your race OR your role, but not both.

Now, as to the kill, Shak, it's obvious I think that our killers are invisible influencers of some sort. I think broadcasting someone's location and steering him and/or steering him into a security guard are well within the abilities thereof.

Please, if you're going to abbreviate, I prefer Shake at least :) 

I hadn't thought of the double-confirm.  That's a good idea. 

It feels a little far-fetched to say someone is broadcasting someone else's location and/or running them into a security guard.  I can't think of any standard Paranormal abilities that would work along those lines.  Okay, well, maybe those scientist tracking devices ... would that be odd for a xeno to have those?  Hmm.  Well, we've certainly seen that the standard Paranormal rules don't always apply in this game, so I grant you something like that could happen. 

Oh, and I forgot to mention in my last post, but I think it's safe to say now that you know I have a shield to protect me during the run phase - I can pilot the ship when we escape.

Hmm... Two Alien pilots?

Urist, did you say you had any other non-pilot powers? Tolyk was a pilot with other special powers too...

And no one has actually investigated Urist, have they?

Actually, wait, we did - but only got his race, Alien, which he said publicly. And isn't that useful to us...

Shake:
GlyphGryph:  If the kill last night wasn't random chance, then what do you suspect was done to Dariush to NK him?  Because, flavor-wise, bumping into a security guard coming out of a side corridor doesn't look like it would fit with any night action I can think of.  I'm not saying it couldn't have been someone's doing, but it doesn't seem to make sense to me that way.


Toaster: Same comment and question as to GlyphGryph above.

I assume you mean Book?  I have no idea, but I'm very convinced it wasn't just some random happenstance- that's just too bastardy for me to believe.   If you want a flavor-theory, maybe one guard is in the right area and the scum's got a radio, then somehow directed Book to be there at the exact moment?

Oh, and I forgot to mention in my last post, but I think it's safe to say now that you know I have a shield to protect me during the run phase - I can pilot the ship when we escape. 

See, I knew there were people smart enough not to claim their pilot status despite Urist I trying to fish them out.

That vote is pending a bit on your role-confirm, but I still don't trust Urist, and his interest in lynching either you or Irony without even trying to say why is fishy as hell.

Urist

Though my reasoning is a bit different - Jim claims to have never seen anyone but Bookthras visit him, and Book got NKed.

If Urist was really a pilot, I find it pretty much impossible to believe they didn't target him on any of those nights.

...unless... bluh. If kills are psychic or tech powers, they can do them without leaving their house, much like I can do mine.

Meaning no one tried to NK Urist. The last claimed pilot, who claimed we lose without him. Bookthras was not trying to kill Urist, meaning no one visited him in a hostile manner on those nights, meaning it would make sense then for Urist to have done the kill - he'd never target himself, but he might use any other action he had for a night to get the plausible deniability of having survived through some sort of protection.

Again, that's assuming the kill was visible, which is why I retracted my vote - there's many ways it wouldn't have to be.

Glyph: Jim didn't watch me N4 - he followed Bookthras to me. He would not have seen anyone else visit me.

I have no special abilities other than the anti-tech field.

Urist I:  Missed this.
Urist I: Since you're so interested to see them go, what's your case on them?  Why not any of the others?


Also, Jim did watch you N3 when the no-kill was.  My theory was someone protected you (as the obvious kill choice, hence why I think Book was a guard of some flavor).  However, the fact that no one else tried to visit you does not bear that out.  If the pilot-killer of N1 and N2 wanted pilots dead so badly, why not try to kill you?  I say because you're not a pilot and you're just interested in their death.

Shakerag: Thanks for responding to my question.

I'll wait for IronyOwl to claim first however before proceeding, though I do note that during the first Run Phase, Bookthras was attacking Urist over 'grasping straws' and creating a fake case against him, which, along with likelihood that that Urist claimed Pilot to try and rolefish other pilots, make him rather suspicious. Urist never really defended himself adequately against the charge, but it never really stood out to me until just right now.

To make it clear why I linked to that D1 case, I'm bringing up a possibility of a false attack by Urist (which is a scumtell), not to provide a rationale for why Bookthras was killed this turn.

I realized that Bookthras was right about my case being poor, which is why I dropped it.



Toaster: Irony basically voted Toony for acting like a survivor:

Toony is obvscum; his reasons are terrible and keep changing, so the only thing he really seems to care about is pushing a not-him lynch through.
He's also been rather passive:
IronyOwl, if you weren't voting for Dariush, who would you vote for?
Not sure. Nobody else really sticks out as somebody who definitely needs it.

As for Shakerag, until today he's basically been activelurking the game away with theories instead of scumhunting.

And as for the no-kill N3, I think that was so that Dariush could claim the N1 and N2 kills. Given the stupidity that would require on town's part, I don't think he had any help in coming up with it.



Why are people trying to draw information from NKs? It's Wine at best.

GlyphGryph: You can reveal your results now.

I suppose I can. Its not like they've been a well kept secret.

Tolyk: Protect
Toaster: Survive
Jim: Find
Book: Protect

Hence the reason I was reluctant to claim - Book was the last Protect I picked up, and he's dead now. However, with 2 potential pilots, one with a claimed shield, I figure nows as good as ever.

If I could vote you harder I would, GlyphGryph.
You didn't claim your results because you had found a protect result and wanted the protector to stay hidden, GlyphGryph.

You knew damn well that both TolyK and Bookthras were dead, GlyphGryph.
