I hate to sound like a broken record, but this game really is that big and I seriously haven't been keeping up. Lemme at least answer the questions poised at me. Oh, and
unvote, since my opinion is completely baseless.
It's a revivocult, all right.
Mr. Person., why did you revive?
Or rather, prove us you and Zathras aren't cultists.
I might actually be able to do that, depending on how things go. For now, though, all I can say is nope.avi
It's a revivocult, all right. Mr. Person., why did you revive?
I'd remind you that if there's a revivocult, you're part of it. You revived as well, and have failed to account for it (other than a present from Santa Wuba, which I find laughably unlikely).
But yeah, Person, what 'up with that?
I dunno. There's probably some sort of risk and/or drawback to reviving, though. Man I wish I knew why I was revived, it would make things so much easier.
... I'm most interested in hearing from Pandar, Nirur, and Person as to if they found out anything at night....
I didn't even learn anything the night I died, sadly. I tried to buy Jokerman, hoping to get a kill or something.
Still haven't reread at all, but at least I'm going through the thread now.
The flavor of the revive I got was me being dead when all of a sudden a giant hand appears and pulls me back from death. After getting dragged back to Earth, I found myself alive with a new role with new abilities.
Without reading anything or with any information to go on, I'm going to drop a vote on Pandarsenic, since I thought he was scum before I died.
Would you mind detailing your new role?
Yes, I would mind
NativeForeigner. That's some pretty blatant rolefishing there. Why exactly do you want me to roleclaim?
As for your questions: a) mostly because I was revived without becoming cult, so it seems plausible to me that it's not the case. I'm not opposed to people considering or investigating the possibility, I just don't see it as likely. There's something else going on, but I don't know what. And b) I don't know that a mass-block is easy to repeat, or we'd do it every night and just lynch the scummiest every day based on day-play; scum wouldn't stand a chance without night actions. But maybe people feel like playing with haikus again? I'm game if you guys are.
You don't see it as likely? Alright. No no, don't ask me any questions to determine for sure if there's a cult, I don't mind, just throw baseless opinions around like they're candy. It's not like I'm alive or anything.
A) But how do we know you're not cult? Or Mr. Person for that matter. I'm not sure any of us can answer this question right now, which worries me. The dead being constantly revived just doesn't settle well with me, which is why I suggest considering lynching one of the revivees to see the flip. (Brutal, yes, but the only sure way to know).
So how would this help us catch the scum? Oh, what's that? It doesn't? You're just trying to waste everyone's time and let the scum slip by? Good try,
NativeForeigner. Care to explain why you don't seem to care at all about catching scum?
Well, those revive are somewhat creeping me out. On the contrary to Zath, i believe the revivocult is more than likely. Basically, if you get revived as townies, this game is basic auto-town win. Unless the scum find the reviver, kill him without him being protected nor blocked , all that before day 3 or so (since after that the revived hold majority vote, and well they can just revive the lynchee anyway) the game is uninnable for scum. Getting revived with old aligment is right out, why would a town-reviver revive a SK ? Only realist outcome i see is a reviver that bring back people back under his control or a cult.
I would put pandar as the master of that cult. Zathras diligent hunt of Toaster is appreciated, but yet i havent seen him do much looking at Pandar wich sounds rather odd to me. Let it be clear, i have trouble with Toaster claim, i don't see how a prison thingy goes with chernobyl, and meltdown could be a gamebreaker if it is for the whole game.
Basically, i like Native idea of lynching a revivee. I'm aware it's not something to do on a whim, but that kind of information is vital, and if we dont get it soon and we are facing a necrocult it will be too late to turn the tide. In this case i would choose
Zathras since
1)His power is extremely usefull for a cult, if he still have it
2)He his a good scumhunter, yet seem way too blatant about minimising the revivecult. It strikes me as odd that an experienced player toss the possibility aside like that.
3)He implied that there may be more than 1 revive source. Thats extremely unlikely. His argument for that was a difference in the flavor text, wich is not something we should take as granted, especially under th word of one of the possible cultist.
Wait, you're trying to lynch someone you think is a cultist? Really? Do you even know how cults work? You want to lynch the cult leader, lynching the cultists just results in the cult getting stronger.
So why aren't you asking any questions?
MBP: What can you say to convince us that you're not a cultist leader? Who do you think are Jokerman's scumbuddies, and why aren't you after them? You seem to think Pandar is some flavour or other of scum, so what do you propose to do about it?
So wait, earlier you thought a cult unlikely but now you're questioning MBP about him being cult leader? How does that make any sense? What, you want me to believe a townie revived a serial killer and a cult revived a townie? You're not making any sense, Zathras.
Also, why the fuck did Nirur Torir roleblock Pandarsenic? "Durr, I'mma roleblock the player WITH AN EASILY CONFIRMED, KILL STOPPING ABILITY!". If you hadn't of roleblocked Pand, there would of been no NK and we'd of had a free lynch. Sure, we got lucky and revived a townie and still had no kill, but that doesn't mean roleblocking Pand is ok. In fact, the only players who would want to roleblock a player stopping the scum would be... the scum! So Nirur is second scummiest right now. And I've barely reread anything!
