Well the problem with that is my claimed role name was mentioned in another player's flip, along with them taking over my abilities if I die first.

There's also the issue of my claimed ability - game continuing until the Evil role is killed while I'm alive - pretty much being confirmed by us being in D5, and the fact there are two players remaining, which normally constitutes the no-return point for a scum win.

I don't understand why I'm arguing the point though

Don't count my chickens before they hatch...

Gah, I should have seen lurking...

[Tomasque]

Note: If a person chooses to forfeit (instead of keep) when they gain two victory points, they will only forfeit one of those points. The other point will be kept.

[Starver]

Okey dokey, now I know I can talk freely...  So I'll keep it brief.  For once.

I already knew DST had come to the US, day 1 (and had voted, but feigned otherwise).  OTOH, I genuinely missed day-end Day 2.  And I actually was getting Fish and Fallacy mixed up at one point (but I then shamelessly played up on my past error in deliberate hints to that effect in later posts, lest I need an 'alibi' of some kind).  Also, I was telling Moonlit and Hector to stop squabbling... not sure it would have helped or not to have them make more rational decisions, but I figured it wouldn't hurt either to be the 'reasonable' one.

(And I did try to use mathematics to work out everyone's roles, at that point in the game, although the version for public consumption was deliberately sabotaged to give results in my favour.   But I'd already excluded the "two pairs" possibility, so I was wrong anyway.)

Yet to be fully confirmed, but looks like if I'd attacked Hector (something I would have done if I'd felt threatened), the game would have continued still with Moonlit in charge.  And, given the reasons I would have tried to depose Hector include that I wanted the game to end quickly, it seems it wouldn't actually have been beneficial to me!

Ok, that's at least one paragraph longer than I'd intended, so I'll leave it there for now.  Let Tomasque's round-end summary (either edited into the message three posts ago, or else appended after this) reveal all.  Also, I'm going to announce now, before I know how right or wrong I will be, that at the beginning of the next round I shall announce that I am the Evil role - just to get that particular elephant out of the room.

Da heck?
The metagame just got more complicated.

[Starver]

The metagame just got more complicated.

Or you can just rightfully ignore me, when I inevitably say that. 

(Or at least treat it as doubtfully as any contentless "Yeah, I'm a Townie" D1 statement by anyone else.  Just that if I didn't tell you that I was going to say this in advance, but said it in jest like I have been seriously (sic) tempted to do for a while now, then you might take it as gospel...)

But wait!  What if I forget to say anything about this!?!  Does that mean that I want you all to suspect me of not wanting people to suspect me?!?  Or does that mean I'm a jester, at last??? Argh! The logical loops-within-loops!

[Tomasque]

Round-end post was updated. Check it out!

[Tomasque]

oops. I'll add that.

Bonus Round - Day 1
 The Underground was merry as usual, then suddenly monsters began to disappear. Suspicious piles of dust began to show up everyone. Soon it was clear what was happening - all too clear. There was someone among them who was responsible - someone who had to be brought to Justice.

 This round will be using Role-Change voting. It works like normal voting - except that the voted person is not killed. Instead, their role is replaced with a role from the Replacement Pool. Neither role is revealed, and the old role is removed from the game altogether.

 Note: Since there were some questions about voting last time - ones that prevailed throughout much of the round. This is a reminder that I am open to any questions about voting.
Day ends Monday, 10:00 PM PST
      ...or Tuesday, 5:00 AM GMT Heh, you're welcome.

[hector13]

Only the lynchee has their role removed and replaced?

Does their previous role go into the replacement pool?

[Tomasque]

The one with the most votes against them is chosen. Ties will result in no lynch.

The previous role is removed from the game entirely.

[TheBiggerFish]

huh.  this is an interesting round.
