Or perhaps it's the Sword and Scales of Justice?

[hector13]

sigh

[hector13]

Again, there are four hands in the picture, for five players.

There were five hands in the picture on D1.

[hector13]

Do you think Tomasque didn't make that himself?

[Starver]

I count five hands.  But I can't directly match my hand-name against those pictures, nor the one that I imagine (without it being explicit) controls me. Unless you can only go so far with figurativism and GIMP.

FoU, though, IIRC, you seemed originally to have absolutely no idea about hands, which might explain why my controller is not a hand, and would perhaps mean something else about mine.

...
there are five hands in that picture(the one I just posted).

Let's count!

1. Pale hand furthest on the left.
2. Further to the right, two hands with a dark pixel aura, one gripping the other.
3. Horrible mouth-thing hand.
4. Now look up. There's a hand holding a sword above the horrible mouth-thing hand.

That makes 5.

That was before I realized it wasn't just some metaphor or symbolism. It was a sudden realization I had in the middle of Night 1... and then I got bloody silenced.
I'll remind you of the fact that my role is in the form "The Hand of [?]". It then seemed reasonable to me that we're all hands.

Also, given the hand you claimed, how do you explain the Sword of Damocles above you, hm?

I don't think I claimed. Please quote the post in which I claimed my role, please.

[Starver]

For the others,  Moonlit claimed "second on the left", which seems to be in a caress with another. I think that's been confused by Hector. FoU stated nothing, that I can see.

Spoiler: Not even hand-related, at first (click to show/hide)

Now, what did you think when you saw the picture I posted?

Immediately: Nothing, really.

Now: Is this some sort of art themed round?

NINJAS
THEY ATTACK
FOREVERMORE

... eh?

Everybody is being confusing. Everybody. Can we please get on with scum hunting?

Everybody: What do you think this round's flavor theme is? Mechanics theme?

Pretty much, that picture Moonlit posted.

... in words, please?

FoU

That's, like...You're missing the VERY BLATANTLY OBVIOUS IN YOUR FACE claims of control/controlled actions.  I don't even how.  Consider this a pressure vote till you have a theory one way or the other.

What information did you give the town? You basically just shrugged and grunted, yet you're demanding the rest of us answer the question completely.

I could forgive the caution...  "I'm the gloveless hand/the hand stuck in the closing door/the hand feeding the biting dog/whatever" could be indicate to your natural predator that you are their natural prey, but it soon looked obvious to me that being "The Hand of [?]" is not in itself a clue.  I might even have gone further and said as much myself, but for the shutdown on claiming.

I shall say that I don't know what my controller did (they're probably not the sword, they're perhaps more powerful), but I know that they succeeded twice.  They may not know this, but as there are apparently multiple controllers I don't think this is as big a help to an evil controller as it is to everyone else, unless another controllable character (I spotted two claims, maybe not both being totally honst) fills in too many blanks.

[Starver]

Sorry, but I did mean to say as how "Hand of ..." looks more like a guessed title (after the fact), unless anyone else wants to claim a (specifically) "Hand of" title. It may be that my variation is just one of several variations, in which case I'm thinking too narrow. Like my thinking that we're all theatrically-related (I'm calling into question that assumption, given the big picture).

[hector13]

Also, given the hand you claimed, how do you explain the Sword of Damocles above you, hm?

I don't think I claimed. Please quote the post in which I claimed my role, please.

Ah right, another misreading on my part. It appeared to me you were claiming the freaky looking hand with the sword above it. Hand of Thing, rather than Hand of [Thing]. I'm not doing well with punctuation this round...

I'm going to switch my vote over to Moonlit, for now. The claim of a hand (not even a concrete one!) doesn't sit well with me. Seems like a surreptitious attempt at getting someone else to claim, too.

[TheBiggerFish]

Well then.

I am rather surprised as to FoU's sudden change of heart...

I both do and don't trust his claim, but it is worrisome.

However, given what Moonlit said about their hand, I'm much more suspicious of them.

[hector13]

What makes you suspicious of them?

[Starver]

Well then.

Being second hand to the left? I don't even understand that one, but doesn't look dangerous. Thus I presume this is a counterclaim because you know it is you?

I can't trust Fallacy's claim unless someone can satisfy me it's not plain made up. But could be a scared Neutral having chosen wrongly in trying to avoid suspicion of being worse.

[hector13]

I'd also like an explanation on how you simultaneously do and don't trust FoU, TBF.

[TheBiggerFish]

Oh bother.

I misread the photo.

Unvote.

@hector:His claim makes some sense, but it makes too much sense.  Like, it was reverse-derived from the pictures.

[TheBiggerFish]

Although, I'm also a second hand from the left role, for the record...
