Well, I hate to change the rules midgame, but I can remove the limit if the game goes to night tonight and no one objects.
Umm... I'd like to point out a few things that would make you change your mind:
First, Theoretical:
If one of either Jim Groovester or me are Town, and this can only be one, since both would require that Mindmaker be scum, then if one of those two Townies are killed the next Night (assuming scum [That wasn't NativeForeigner] was lynched), the other CANNOT BE RE-KINGED. That means the choices for King would be NativeForeigner. Who by default would be scum assuming the criteria.
Now, this is only assuming that only one of Jim Groovester and me were Town, which is 66% probable at this point (4/[4!/{2!*2!}]).
Second, since I know myself to be Town, I have to believe that Jim Groovester is not Town in order for there to be a sliver of chance of winning.
Luckily, since none of the others seem to have stated outright that their team has won, Mindmaker can also be assumed to be Town. That makes the above theoretical not only probable, but almost the exact situation we have here.
The only difference is that if Mindmaker does lynch NativeForeigner, then Ottofar can choose a new King. However, I'd rather there was not a forced lynch (Despite them both having to be scum), as that is, well, forced.
Third, if Jim Groovester and I had both been Town, the available choices would have been Mindmaker and NativeForeigner, the only two candidates for King and scum. That's a 16% chance that shouldn't happen, as the scum would kill someone that wasn't King.
And finally, the last possibility (Jim Groovester and I are scum) has only a 16% chance of happening as well, but it'd also be unfair, as then the scum would have no way to be Kinged unless they killed Ottofar. But, they shouldn't have to do that.
So, in conclusion, CHANGE THE RULE. No matter who's Town or who's scum, it is unfair to the players who were previously Kinged. There is nothing gained from re-Kinging, just as there's everything gained from having a Hero not die.
If Mindmaker's scum, we've probably lost. If not, that means the scumteam is Jim and Wuba. Seeing as this has all come down to process of elimination, we're just going to have to wait until Mindmaker shows up to know. :/
If he's scum, just say it. Don't beat around the bush. If anyone's his partner, it's you, and if he's scum, you've won. Therefore, there's no penalty for saying you've won before he gets here. Because he's the only one that can lynch. Get it?
And if he's not your partner, that's an incredibly passive way of talking, as it DOESN'T come down to process of elimination. I've been saying you were suspicious since Day 2. Of course, I suspected it was Pandarsenic and you, but I can really only thank you for killing Pandarsenic, can't I? I can't honestly agree with killing the scummiest Town player alive (Other than, perhaps Ottofar), as I was serious when I said I would instantly lynch him. He simply sucks, and refuses to do anything more than a ToonyMan-style active-lurking passive-aggressive banter about me, who only gets it for saying he was scummy - in exactly as many words.
If you had kept Pandarsenic alive, instead of Mindmaker, you would probably have been Kinged. The only possibility I can see with killing him is maybe making me look bad. But, really, I digress. It's almost always better to leave the scummy people. And after the game ends, I'll explain more, since all I can really do when talking about that is bring up WIFOM.
Assuming Mindmaker isn't scum, which is all I really have to hope for, Jim Groovester and NativeForeigner are the scum. Unfortunately, I'm gonna go with the more likely Town has lost variant.
By the same conditions and process of elimination, the scum team is you and NativeForeigner.
But yeah, you're right. If Mindmaker's scum then the game is lost. There's nothing to do until he shows up, then.
Not really. Yes, process of elimination is great and all, but there's simply more to it than that. There is, in fact, plenty to do before he gets here. At least one of us is Town, and if exactly one of us are Town, that means the King is, in fact, town.
So, on the off-chance I haven't lost instantly, you two are scum. I can build arguments for that before he gets here. What can you two say for yourselves? The only person I could maybe give credit to is Jim Groovester, who has a small possibility to being Town, and therefore is game over.
If the Town has lost, then Toaster should simply end the game. Because I'm sick of waiting. I also want those rules changed for next game.
