Well, I'm gonna keep talking until I find my killer and why he killed me.

To answer your question, my  thought is mainly that it must be anti town. No town vig would honestly kill someone that fast, unless they were really really stupid, so it has to be some sort of anti town role. Whether or not its mafia I'm not sure, but whoever it is, it probably isn't good. Perhaps a serial killer of some sort, a day kill variety?

I suspect you've never tried doing many illegal things yet in your game. The second the CCS knows you're "active", they'll come down on you like the hammer of God.

Well, why me? I'm not the best of scumhunters-if they wanted to kill off a town, why not a better player like Leaf?

Unvote. No Lynch. AN, what are your thoughts on the daykill?

I originally assumed it was a town role who did the killing -- if you have a chance to daykill someone (with zero chance of being blocked), you generally take out the 'best' town player. Why would scum target ExKirby? — There's no reason to. Unless of course, the person with the kill is the 'best' town player.

Think of it like this: There are 5 players in a generic mafia game. 1 of these players is phenomenal, an absolutely terrifying adversary to go against if he's town. Another one of them is still leagues ahead of everyone else, but not quite as good.
The remaining three are 'novices'.

Let's assume you're one of the novices, and you're also a serial-killer with a daykill. Given that it's D1, there is no chance that your target will be protected, nor that you will be blocked. Obviously you would target the best town player.

Now, what if you were the 'best' town player, and you're a serial-killer with a daykill? Who would you target then?
Targeting the second-best makes no sense as that immediately puts suspicion on you. "Why'd the SK choose <second-best player> over <best player>?! <Best player> must be scum!" This is a terrible move, as the only defense is "Scum's trying to frame me!" and that rarely goes well.
No, the only target you can choose without attracting suspicion is a novice. One who poses no threat to you... unless you're trying to WIFOM everyone.

To be honest, I've changed my mind. I don't think a town vig was responsible for the death of ExKirby: I think it was a serial-killer. Furthermore, I think it was either one of our best players, or a player who misjudged ExKirby's skill level.

I believe this sounds reasonable, yes?

There's another possibility which is becoming increasingly likely, though -- ExKirby committed suicide as part of his role (or he pretended to, ala Ken Kesey). So, ExKirby. What say you to that?

I don't trust Neruz at all. I suspect we either have someone who can Sylar their brains and gain their powers (an SK?) or a zombie as a daykilling cult leader.

Oh man.

HOLD ON A MINUTE

Those damned lawyers! Perhaps it is an ability after all. Maybe ExKirby is only legally dead and thus unlynchable, or other such nonsense?

...Well, I mean, otherwise you'd think Neruz would crack down on him consistently posting after death.

This IS a bastard-mod. Rule 1 of Bastard-Mod, there are no rules.

A good Bastard Mod has rules, the players just don't know them.

There are rules, i may have made some up as i went along, but there are rules.


Since ExKirby died like 5 minutes into the game, i don't mind if he keeps posting, he doesn't know anything. The instant someone else dies though, he'll have to stop, since he has Dead Chat access.

Plus he's proving to be an excellent source of WIFOM, and i'm all for that.

New semireliable information: ExKirby is truly good and dead. His continued presence is more of pity than anything else.
