PFP: Just popping in to apologize, I was mistaken on the time the day ended. I'll be more careful about that in the future.

Day ends in 5 hours. January 11, at 5Pm [1700]

I'm listed as not voting, for some reason.

It's because I like you so much I let you both vote and not vote at the same time. But I guess since you hate me playing favorites I'm not letting you have two votes any more. Now you have to deal with just one.

Current theory: Fraxert is scum and is not voting because we're on track to lynch a townie. That or Fraxert has been too busy to respond to the thread.

This probably isn't even going to be noticed before the day ends, so these will probably be my last words, oh well. In response to your question, IronyOwl, I will say that I  think you should be the one asking him questions if you're suspicious, because no matter what I say right now I don't know whether it will be taken as honest or as attempting to mislead you into not lynching a bandit. (either way, it could backfire) Also, in response to Onyxjew's question, I honestly don't know, I don't think I'm good enough at this to use any of them effectively. In any case, goodbye and thank you all for a great (if short from my point of view) game.

Unless this is a very cunning double bluff, I think we have good reason to suppose that +!!scientist!!+ isn't in fact scum, because if they were, their partner in crime would be telling them to vote for Captain Ford to cause a nolynch. Unless their partner is just as clueless...

...or he's waiting until the last second. Since Nerjin stated that there's a cutoff for voting at 5PM, that's possible. Unless he suddenly changes his mind.

So, +!!scientist!!+ to prevent shenanigans. Sorry, I don't think you're scum. But a nolynch would be worse. I hope you hang out in the deadchat.

Also, Oppose Extension. I'll reverse that if there's suddenly a lot of support for an extension in the next hour, but better safe than sorry.

On that note, do you think an extension is warranted? We only need two more votes.

We haven't heard from the ICs in a couple days. ReDeadEr hasn't responded to my accusation.

I was hesitant to suggest an extension because I just finished a BM that lasted 2 months. (Ugh!) I'd rather the game get a move on, but we might not have enough information yet for Day 2.

(I'm sick, and thus more impatient than usual, so I'd like someone else's opinion)

To be honest, I don't think there's ever going to be enough information, and I'd rather the game didn't drag on endlessly. I think you're about to lynch an innocent person but if y'all think the information gained from that is going to be helpful... In any case:

Unvote
Captain Ford

Note I don't necessarily think Ford is scum, but I'd rather we didn't hang a townie.

WTF?

Why would you do that? Do you WANT a nolynch?

Extension. I doubt we'll get the second extend vote. But this needs explaining.

"Death to the bandit!" shouted the assorted townsfolk as they drug a hogtied +!!scientist!!+ across the dusty roads of Jackelope towards the gallows. Never before used their lust for blood was soon to be fulfilled. "It wasn't me! I swear! I was just a regular townsperson! I swear!" however the poor learned man's cries went unheeded by the blood-thirsty town. Placing his neck through the rope the leader of the lynch-mob asked "Any last words scum?" through his tears +!!scientist!!+ stated "It weren't me!" however this only caused the lynch-leader to spit in his face "A liar 'til the end... Well at least you'll have a nice tie to be buried in." with that the lever was pulled and +!!scientist!!+ hanged.

"Come on folks. Let’s go make sure he didn't steal any of Jimmy Pete's other stuffs." Sighed one of the other townsfolk. After a few moments the townspeople finally arrived at +!!scientist!!+’s house. Upon inspection they found two things. 1: That he had none of Jimmy Pete’s stashed away and 2: A journal providing undeniable proof that +!!scientist!!+ was indeed a Regular Townsperson.

Discouraged the townsfolk wondered home to await the next trial in the morning. In each of their hearts they knew they might not make it through the night.

As morning came so did the townsfolk. After a small burial for +!!scientist!!+ they decided to meet at the saloon to avoid the dark thoughts of what had happened the day before. “Well… We were wrong yesterday but… We’ll get it right today!” said the leader of yesterday’s lynchmob. Nobody truly believed them but they did as they had no other options they consented. “Wait a minute… Where’s the sheriff?” Asked one of the older townsfolk. A long silence passed before it clicked to everyone Notquitethere! A search began to locate the missing law-man before he was finally found face-down in a puddle of blood. “God damned varmints got the sheriff!” shouted the lynchmob leader from yesterday as he threw his hat to the ground. The folk went  back to the saloon in a riotous upheaval at the knowledge that their sheriff was now gone. Now there were two deaths to avenge… and they day had just begun.

Notquitethere the Sheriff was night-killed!

JUST FOR THAT FINE WESTERN FLAVOUR - DON'T ANALYSE THE FOLLOWING

The others find the sheriff gut shot by the old well, red footprints leading off into the scrubland.

'You shoulda listened,' he burbled through bloody lips, 'it was...'

But before he could continue his guts rolled out and he died in the street he had once sworn to protect.

No good bandits! Damn ya yella-bellied hides!



I have to say, scientist’s innocence has thrown me off the scent.
Sorry for my lackin’ of trustin’ you, cowboy :(
I’m a little bemused at the lack of posting by certain people at the end of the day.

Something about Tiruin has me a little sus(picious). A bit too curt? He only made one post (granted a long one).
But - no post on the second or third days. At all. Happy to let an innocent be lynched, are we? I would have thought an experienced player would have joined in the discussion?

fraxert you were extremely quiet at the end. What a contrast to the beginning of the game - this is concerning. Were you happy to let poor innocent scientist die towards the end of the day?

“Note I don't necessarily think Ford is scum, but I'd rather we didn't hang a townie.”
NQT you sound rather certain here that scientist isn’t a bandit. Why? Is the reason you’re so sure because you’re mafia?

IronyOwl what do you make of the events of Day 1?

Captain Ford what’s your read on NQT?

Onyxjew and ReDeadEr: Who do you currently find the most suspicious?
