Ford: Regarding the
candle argument there.
I believe Meph has made a
riddle among the candles which would declare victory to town only if they can riddle it out. Now, riddles are of a simple nature though they seem complex. The process there is, I believe, complex due to the fact that we're correlating Teal and White with life - was White Solifuge's only hope? What if we re-light Sol's Green or Teal candles as opposed to the White: This one goes with the information that
> If White = Life. Sol will return
> If any lit candle = Life. Sol will return.
> If Green/Teal - Life, then any pattern we're relating is different from the rest as all White candles were lit D1 start, as opposed to only a few Teal candles being lit (who colors their candles teal anyway?!)
Anyway.
The upshot is that if he does revive, he might have gained an ability as well.
How is this possible?
You forgot listing me >_>
Tiruin: Have you talked about what your ability did to Solifuge anywhere? Is there any reason from your perspective why not lighting Solifuge's white candle would fail to revive him?
On the first: yeah. That ability was non-malevolent.
However I'd like for yourself to come up with what I'm getting as my ability is directly related to the candles. It's pretty obvious - look at Sol. From
here,
this, until
here.On the second: Look at Ottofar. His white didn't mean life, but he had a teal candle lit. This either speaks on the matter [Occam's Razor - simple thoughts here] that
all candles = life, scum's night abilities also reflect that they're acting on what information we're giving out so they're lost too - following their wincon for a guide I believe.
Now, for my revised theory, the White is a
blank candle - representing only one variable out of three which keeps the priest in; the Green may relate to Power as it seems Toasters was connected to it, and Vector...
Yeah, I think I got a notice from my god. I have no idea what triggered that, though.
This thing; including her clarifying with Meph (note, only her green candle was done in earlier) an Teal is an unknown - however I do believe that the Teal means something as opposed to the general White of the masses.
Edit-reread:
Ford:
Part of the rationale for lighting his white candle was to prove that people can be revived at all by lighting candles. If we light another candle and he doesn't revive, we won't know if it's because only his white candle controls that or if he just can't be revived by lighting candles.
By that logic, if you light the white candle and he does come back, you won't know if it's the white candle or any candle that does it.
...This states my belief in an easy and simple way. Bluh.
NerjinBusy busy busy...
Light Solifuge White
Light DariushTeal
Solifuge because I figure we may as well find out if a white candle coming back on a dead player brings them back. Granted with Ottofar... I dunno. I'm having trouble thinking of why he is different... I dunno.
Dariush's teal is because I want to see what happens if a teal is lit. Hopefully it's not as someone suggested, a way to make more scum.
So why Dariush of all people? Unless we've town-aligned players who can act at night (unless there is no Mafia styled NK? That's what I'm thinking the variant is here - a mirror reflection of the day end thing: two candles switched) then I'm more inclined to see what Toaster has got. He's powerless it seems, and the only thing he has left is his white candle.
