We're going to try to avoid that in the future. At least, I'm trying to avoid any easy ways to get CTs.

In any case, Round 11 now has sign-ups open.

So, after reading the Cult chat, I'm glad that I actually just kidnapped web rather than scan him and kidnap him the next night (if he turned out to be cult).  Looks like I would have been dead rather than jetting off to the stars.

On the other hand, I was talking with both the Scientist and the CT so I had the Intel and the claim list.  That's how I knew that web was Cult rather than being told directly by the Scientist. CT + Intel is an overpowerful combination.

Also, if we ever get another CT again, please let it be a more active one!
Let's NOT get a CT.
CTs are fine.  Easy CTs are not.  If you have to work for it and sacrifice half the town to confirm a townie, then you have a powerful tool.  It's just when you can kill one person to get a CT that things get squirrelly.

Yeah, Agent + Telepath will create a CT, but you need to lose two powerful roles or also sacrifice a detective and another telepath in order to confirm their results.  Plus, "everyone target me" creates WIFOM due to the possibility of a cult PWV or a cult journalist ("Ah, so these are the people we need to take out...").

If you read Dead Chat you'll notice that my lynch was very confusing. Humaan, what made you think I was scum. Also, after reading his Night 2 PM, I understand why Nuke thought he wasn't warden'd.

The assumption was, Nuke guarded Humaan and the cult tried to kill Humaan. I don't think Humaan even considered the possibility of Nuke being the actual target of the night kill.

Hmm...I've never been a big fan of CCGs - I mean, I did and still do collect Pokemon cards, but I never got heavily into the battling and trading thing.

By definition that makes you a fan since you still buy them.

Yeah, I suppose Nuke might've thought that the thing preventing him from leaving his house was the cultist rather than a warden.

Hint for the future: If I tell you that you feel like you're being wrapped in invisible chains, you've just been targeted by a Psychic Warden. Granted, I won't always make it that obvious, but talking about invisible chains is my way of saying what's going on with the psychic warden's powers.

And I suppose if he hadn't been roleblocked the flavour would've had him going to Humaan's house, hanging around for a bit THEN going back home and getting killed.

Meph: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=42373.msg835070#msg835070 -you failed to close a bold in role PMs (this was a problem in one of the other games, I think) and Night 1 does not indicate to whom the PM is.

quibble at All: a TOME is a book. TOMB is where you put a dead body.

Scum won that because I chose the town conveniently. If I had picked AN instead of Toony, the scum wouldn't have had that kill.

I wanted to yell at them about obviousness.

Question, RedWarrior0.  You knew there was a Cult Hunter in game.  So why did you claim Cult Hunter to humaan?  It could've got you lynched as an Exterminator or somethin' if you weren't lucky.

I didn't really think about it, I guess. Would've been better if I originally claimed Scientist with Intel, probably.
