Jim Groovester, what will your fucking goddamned plan be for finding the dopps?

Argembarger, what did you learn from the last game that will be most relevant this game?

Toaster, what are your thoughts about Janus's oft-promoted Org policy lynch? Would you support it if he proposes it?

Well, you're the one always looking for somethingfuckingelse... but anyway: "simulation" flavour seems to imply only town and dopps; do you think there will be exterminators or other hostile aliens about?

Do you want a fucking goddamned plan? I'll be happy to give you one. There's no guarantee it will be worthwhile to go through, but, hey, you'll have something to complain about for the whole game.

As for aliens? I don't know. There are only ten players, so if it were a normal Paranormal game I'd say there aren't going to be a any hostile aliens like the Exterminator. Xenozoologist is probably out too, because there aren't enough bodies and not enough nights to win. I guess that leaves the Survivor, the Spore Spreader, and the Hivemind. I think the Survivor and Spore Spreader are decent possibilities out of those three.

But it's a bastard game. Anything could happen.

I count eleven: Mysteriousbluepuppet, Zathras, JanusTwoface, Jim Groovester, Org, Toaster, Argembarger, Dariush, Leafsnail, ToonyMan, Jokerman-EXE.

But yeah, your points are valid.

Unvote. Let's pick on someone else: ToonyMan, please tell us your take on factions and so on; do you agree with Jim that an Exterminator is unlikely? Also, how do you think the game's bastardry will manifest itself? What oddities should we be expecting?

Zathras:

I think it's his default stance when he has nothing better to go on.  It's not particularly helpful.  I definitely don't support it as a policy lynch, but I would certainly vote him for being scummy and probably vote him for being useless if no one else was scummy in my eyes.

It getting brought up this early before Janus so much as posts is interesting.  Are you trying to steer the conversation in another direction?


Jim:

I count eleven.  (PPE:  What he said)

Argembarger:  What non-killing role would you most fear in the hands of scum?

I will predict your future for you.  The prediction?  I'm not you.  I'm not going to be shouting exterminator unless something evidently pops up.  No point in causing confusion.  Bastard game is bastard game.  If I was the mod I would tell you what would happen and possibly ruin the game by ratting the scum out, but I don't have the knowledge to do that.

Your powers of clairvoyance are astounding! I totally would have thought you were me (or would become me, since it's the future you're predicting). Like all good future-tellers, you excel in talking without actually providing any information. Kudos.

Different question, then: if you were a Spore Spreader, would you play it as a townie or as a jester? If you were a Hivemind, who would you choose as your first convert?

Nah, just trying to get the conversation started. They're both in the game, and it was mentioned up thread, so it was a convenient way to get RVS going.

JanusTwoface, what internet browser do you prefer?
Whichever that works.  I'm partial to Chrome at the moment although I'm theoretically setting up my system to build Chromium.

Is there anything you hoped to gain by this question?

JanusTwoFace, you're going to suggest we lynch Org, because that's what you do every game. What's your reason going to be?
What's the fun in being predictable?  In fact, I'm not suggesting that we lynch Org. Leafsnail, on the other hand? We should lynch him.

I do find it curious that my Org-policy-lynch-past was brought up on two seperate (albeit probably related) occasions before I did though.

Toaster, what are your thoughts about Janus's oft-promoted Org policy lynch? Would you support it if he proposes it?
See? I don't even have to bring it up for it to stir up discussion in a game! :)

Well, you're the one always looking for somethingfuckingelse... but anyway: "simulation" flavour seems to imply only town and dopps; do you think there will be exterminators or other hostile aliens about?
There are always Aliens. I don't think we can even rule out an Exterminator / Xenozoologist, even in a smaller game. Multiple scum teams counteract additional numbers.



So, Org, Dariush, and Jokerman-EXE. Not voting nor being voted. That's interesting.  A question for the each of you:

Who would you most like / least like to see as a Hivemind?

Someone other than Org or ToonyMan; someone that can actually survive a few days.

The question was of the usual RVS sort.  Not very useful but good for spotting scum early if that chance rises.
