Sorry, but you read right.  The game has begun and signups are closed.

However, I can put you in as a Sub.  If anyone needs replacing, you'd be able to step in.


Also, I think I might go ahead and open signups to BM5 early since the game is few new folks so it won't harm the other games.  If so, it would be for those who aren't in this game.

If I do, you could request to Sub here and sign up for that one.  Whichever one opens for you first would be the one you end up in. 

[Rooster]

Oh, okay already signed in on that one.
But I'll definitelly observe this one

[Org]

Gentlemen.

Okay, sorry bout that. Af6ter reading back, and noticing that Martyr Syndrome has a death wish, it seems that he either has some scummy plan or doesnt want to play. Hmmm.

[dakarian]

Dakarian glanced at a sheet of paper, one of several, with the names of various people.  It's clear that the survivors were already quite mad and deadly.  Every list he found looked like this:

----
RedWarrior0[1]:SirBayer
Laetificus[1]:Martyr Syndrome
Org[1]:tehstefan
Martyr Syndrome[5]: Vector, CobaltKobold, Laetificus, Apostolic Nihilist, Org
CobaltKobold[1]: RedWarrior0

---

The person who had the largest number turned out to be one of the ones they had found dead outside the cabin, killed by the cold.  It seems they got rid of some of the own by simply throwing them outside to freeze to death. 

Madness.

This sheet, along with the autopsy report, showed that this was the first voting, and happened the day they found out that they were trapped.  Some writing below the 'count' seems to explain things.

"one of the mafia!  actually told us.  Trying to kill us all!"


Dakarian frowned at that.  The report on the casualties is already in.  Martyr Syndrome has a rather kooky past but all this 'mafia' talk doesn't make any sense.

Or perhaps... it does explain what seems to have happened next, on the following night.


Martyr Syndrome, Townie, has been lynched.

It is now night.  Those with night roles, send me your choices.  The rest, good night.

[dakarian]

Dakarian took note of various samples and sent them for testing.  When they came back, he discovered what had happened.  It's a bit of a jumble, since some of the vacationers didn't sleep much, but he's sure by a little after midnight, everyone was asleep.

Eventually, the vacationers woke up, ate, then went right back to living room. At first, he complained to Research why they only found signs of 8 people in the room, but he realized that one of them had been shoved out of the snow by then and never returned. 

The rest of the 8, however, made it to the living room that day....


The night ended peacefully.  No one has died.

Survivors:
Org
Apostolic Nihilist
tehstefan
CobaltKobold
SirBayer
Laetificus
Vector
RedWarrior0

Deadline: Friday, 6th 11am EST

[Vector]

This is sad, dudes.  This is very, very sad.

SirBayer, care to play now that you've got your night information?  Or are you going to just sit around and lurk your face off?

[RedWarrior0]

I think he expected a night kill. Why the hell, though, did MS claim scum? It's too late, though.

CobaltKobold, why do you think nobody died last night?

[tehstefan]

Org I have a bad feeling about you. How about answering my questions from yesterday?

[CobaltKobold]

CobaltKobold, why do you think nobody died last night?

Well, the apparent lack of deadline, and the timing of dakarian's post, seem to indicate that the night roles/mafia made decisions rather than any timing out.

Now, a town not killed is basically a half day lost for mafia. They get the chance to break even if we are manipulated to mislynch.

But really? I think it's experimental play by new players. "Hmm. Let's not kill and see how they react."

[RedWarrior0]

So you don't think a doctor got lucky? Interesting. I think I'll keep my vote on you because I have this feeling you're scum.

Also, dak, I'll be gone over the weekend, Friday afternoon to Sunday evening EST. Just letting you know.

[CobaltKobold]

I don't know if there's a doctor at all.

Lessee...I answer your question and you "feel I'm scum" without pointing out anything, so leave the vote on me.

By asking that question, you DO seem to think a doctor got lucky. Which would imply that you knew that the mafia were trying to kill last night. (This could be reinforced by the wording of his initial "why do you think nobody died last night", but I don't think it's enough on its own for anything)

redwarrior0 you are being quite scummy to my eyes.

This would be an unjustified OMGUS. You're basically voting him because he voted you. He was expecting an answer, and he wasn't satisifed with it.

Good job RedWarrior0.

[SirBayer]

I don't see any need for an extension. Unvote.
Martyr Syndrome is as scummy as they come.
Town has no valid reason whatsoever for spreading WIFOM.

'Scuse me, but am I the only one picking up some bandwagoning here?

Apostolic Nihilist, what say you to that?

Also, Vector - my apologies on missing out on a little bit of time. Real Life interfered.

I am a little disappointed by the lack-of-night-kill. It would be nice if we could find out if we've got a specialist, and if so, what variety, but a role-claim seems useless at this point, really.

[RedWarrior0]

Wait. I can find exactly two differences (barring grammar, target, etc.) between these two quotes:

I think I'll keep my vote on you because I have this feeling you're scum.

redwarrior0 you are being quite scummy to my eyes.

One: As web pointed out, I voted him first.
Two: He backed his up with a partially hole-riddled claim

To explain, I viewed "doctor gets lucky" as the most obvious answer. He might've, too, and not said it because he obviously views the belief of that possibility as scummy. So, what if the doctor suggests, "doctor got lucky."

Which would imply that you knew that the mafia were trying to kill last night.

Oh no! This powerful argument makes me shake in my boots! Of course, anybody who knows that the mafia is going to kill MUST be scum! I must be, too, then!

Note: The above statement is a fine example of the literary device known as sarcasm, more formally as verbal irony.

Without sarcasm: Any half-decent scumteam would probably see the point in attempting a night kill. And any IC would probably try to dissuade them from that.

[CobaltKobold]

Pardon? "Praising the Doctor/(insert role here)" is a scumtell*. He appears to be doing that. That is my justification. I'm sticking to it.

A scum would back off when being accused of an OMGUS. I hear it's pretty worthless as a tell ANYWAY-

OMGUS = Old, broken tell.  It hasn't caught scum in ages and scum around here are very likely to attack a town with poor excuses.

[...]
I agree: OMGUS on its own isn't a good tell at all. What is a good tell is getting very worked up over people voting you, and the OMGUS is just a topping on all of that. Hence "Add OMGUSing to your list of offenses", not "You OMGUSed, you must be scum!".

Then again, "wait for information" provided by SirBayer is also a scumtell*. But RedWarrior0 is where I have my sights at the moment.

*as determined by supposed mafia experts, not myself

pre-post: If the doctor's saying "doctor got lucky" then you press them on it, they claim, and you get off 'em. Softclaiming doctor then?

If I were scum then yes I would have been for a nightkill. Seriously, it's lose-or-breakeven not to kill N1 for mafia.
