The thing is firstly that they aren't entirely inactive. Just less active than other players so therefore less likely to remember to kill either of us. Secondly if we just lynch the players less likely to talk we don't gain anything from the lynch making this game even more of a follow-the-cop then we've already made it.
-
Rending! I kept trying to remember the word but couldn't. I still think that it is a good theory that some form of rending happens when someone first becomes an Epic.
-
You are an epic and you therefore need to stay alive so that the neighborhood watch doesn't win before all the GAs are cleared from each other gang. I also have a theory about when you first become an epic you attack players randomly in the same location as you. But that's all just guessing but the last part does fit in This post has been reported for attempting to skirt the rules that happens in the novels. EDIT: I didn't write that bolded part. What happened? Where did it come from?
-
Yep it is. So donate if you are part of neighborhood watch or wait until Elb gets back to see if she already has something set up to get her final point. EDIT: I'm thinking 6 is much more likely for GA numbers given the fact that there were three confirmed villagers with scan roles, at least one snitch and also win conditions for the "village" while there are still GAs left alive.
-
It's not that hard to get nine points in a cycle if everyone donates. Especially if players take their location actions instead of voting to increase the point gathering. Given that the Evanescents no longer have a banker we can use them for votes this turn and have all of the neighborhood watch do the location action to ensure that I get nine points
-
You can still change the order. I think I agree with Aman about who to scan. I am also okay with lynching Silver Dragon. Of the active ones he is most suspicious. Also I've got no points at the moment unfortunately. I tried to scan someone yesterday to hopefully find a member of my gang but had no luck. EDIT: Vote Colour
-
Firstly I already claimed second banker a while ago and we designated Pub and Ferry(for this round at least) to be our locations. Also maill clarified that we can use our PMs still. One more thing I'd like to point out that I think may have been forgotten is that all points left in a bank at the end of every third cycle disappear. So @ Elb and other blood tyrants: she only needs one more point to make the scan and the rest will just be washed away! I suggest setting something up in PMs so that only one or two people donate points so as to waste the least amount of points!
-
That would actually work much better other than that if the player is innocent they would become easy targets for the GAs we would then need to use some protection roles to prevent that. Also If we have any Harmsway players out there, now that the Bankers are known we can hopefully revive at least one of us if worst comes to worse. Also just an early heads up Nobody go to the Pub or the Ferry this turn! Those will be the homes of the Bankers for the next night!
-
Personally as the banker who will get killed if we try and scan a GA I would prefer to lynch one of the active players and let the potential inactives get scanned so that I've got less of a chance of dying then. Also volunteering to get scanned when the other option is have a good chance of being lynched doesn't really scream village to me. Especially considering allowing yourself to get scanned lets you kill off another Banker.
-
I was about to post about using our first scans on the players in the government building but Meta just beat me to it. So if we lynch one of the players who was in the government building today and then scan two more tomorrow night (which won't happen unless my gang gets me a ton of points by the way) then three of the four will be checked by the time day 4 starts and hopefully we will have found the traitor. Also since both Elb and I are on the same side of the river should I go on to the Ferry this cycle so that we can be separated?
-
Well that answers my question pretty simply. Thanks
-
I'm talking about if I hadn't claimed and had just tried to get you killed while remaining hidden.
-
See now this is kinda the problem that I foresaw. Now if the Banker for the other faction decides that they would rather play only for the faction win they could work towards killing Elb and having the only banker left. That was the main worry I had with this plan... Which is why I didn't come forwards earlier. I am also a Banker. I bet you can all figure out which gang me and Elb are from now too. I am in the Warehouse at the moment.
-
Are we going to just put this up for the Bankers to decide? I personally think we might need a bit more discussion. This also only works if everyone works together to allow for a joint win and I'm not sure if everyone is on board with that, especially any epics who don't wanna sacrifice themselves. About Metas comment he's also probably referencing my vote on Phatt that was pretty helpful to you.
-
I meant more of a not having to worry about votes by using Edema ruh as an excuse. I understand that you need the money from RPing and posting to make tuition. Which actually brings up an interesting thought. Burnt, how have you managed to keep paying tuition when you have only been posting ~3 times a month?
-
I didn't say I thought he was innocent I was merely trying to say that even though I was arguing with Meta that didn't mean that I thought he was a GA. If there is a Sneaky messenger in the Neighborhood watch could I get a message please or if somebody has points to spare I wouldn't mind that either!
-
Honestly at this point I am not really seeing how the complaints have really helped us yet. We don't learn anyones alignment, there isn't really any need for players to defend themselves when they are not in danger of dying and all the actual consequences are decided mostly by random chance due to the Master DP being all NPC controlled.

Sorry but I thought that I had answered all your questions in my first response. Could you perhaps reiterate what a question is? I'm sorry but my understanding of the english language is apparently quite limited. As for the usage of "and" in a sentence there are multiple uses, especially when you introduce periods and words. You may have meant it as you say in this post. This the unaltered post: "As far as the hit on Blade goes, I think that the GAs, as Lopen and Clanky (what a weird coincidence!) pointed out, must have guessed that she was a Banker and that's the only reason that I wasn't attacked last night." Could be read as you say in your altered post or could be an addition to what Lopen and Clanky thought. As in: "Lopen and Clanky pointed out that the GAs must have guessed that she was a Banker and that is the only reason I wasn't attacked last night. Sorry for the misunderstanding. Oh and yes I'm sorry that I commented on the same thing that lopen did. Maybe I should have commented on a different kill that happened. About PMs again, you seem to think that my plan only allowed you to tell PMs can only be used for telling people that they are in the same faction as you. In fact this actually allows for you to continue talking to the people you sent PMs to. As I mentioned in my earlier post this actually gets everyone more involved by spreading out PMs to everyone instead of just a few players. Due to your plan: I'm sorry but when you say "Due to your plan, you actually may be in contact with a GA." Followed later by "I never said that it was due to your plan" when talking about the chances of players being in a PM with a GA I tend to group those statements together. But I realize that they are in slightly different circumstances. One is that It is my fault that the GAs are active within the Factions in PMs while the other talks about how It's my fault that anybody has any PM with a GA. So I suppose the GAs could've just lied when sending out the PMs saying incorrectly who was in the gang. I'm sure they did that, after all what could possibly go wrong with that plan. Hmmm it's almost the same as going into a location that is supposed to be only comprised of a single gang and claiming to be one of them. Do you have any other questions for me or ways that I could improve my linguistic knowledge? I'm sorry for the sarcasm and the tone of this post. Also I don't think that Meta is a GA.
-
So I'm still kinda confused by the whole daylight saving time. Is this round ending in 10 minutes or an hour and 10?
-
@Danosaur, Can't help but notice the lack of not double posting
-
I'm really not too confidant about this whole group of people who have been scanned. I also think that being sabotaged successfully is more indicative of not being a Skindancer then being scanned by an anonymous linguistic student. Well at least not confident enough to give them a 0% chance of being a skindancer.
-
Here's the part where you talked about lopen and I saying that it Silverblade being a banker was why you weren't attacked. Here is lopens post, and my post about potential bankers being targeted neither of which even mention you in it at all. So no I didn't twist your words you just decided to make it about you. I never said it would last the whole game, but for the one cycle yes it would matter. I'm not necessarily saying that you are a GA for proposing the plan. I'm just saying that I believe a single round of PMs is worth not giving the GAs a free kill where we don't learn anything. You also keep trying to push that it was because of my plan that nobody did yours. Not one person said "Let's do Clankys plan instead of Metas" my plan and yours could've been both done at the same time but not everyone wanted to be told where to go. I simply gave an alternative that didn't require anyone to be in any particular place. Actually you did just say that it was due to my plan about two paragraphs ago. Other than that yes if my plan had worked it would have made sure everybody was in a PM. Which I think is actually better than everybody sending their PM to one of the more experienced players just because they are experienced. If anything my plan lowered the probability of an experienced GA getting messages from a bunch of players just because they were experienced. I think that having everybody included in PMs is actually very useful even if we didn't learn our factions from it because it helps everyone be included in the conversations and limits the possibility of a single player being able to do too much through PMs when we have no way of testing their alignment. There is an equal amount of PMs controlled by GAs that they will send out no matter what. By allowing everyone to send out PMs randomly you have the exact same odds of choosing a GA as you do with everyone being in one PM.My plan in no way shape or form increases the chances of any individual player being in contact with a GA through PMs. End of story. Now I still haven't heard anything from anyone in my faction so I am part of the Neighborhood watch. If there are any other neighborhood watch players who still have a PM or would like to announce in thread I still have a PM I can send out.
-
I still haven't received word from anyone in my faction unfortunately. I do however still have my PM to use so if there is one of my superiors out there it might actually be nice for you to post in thread saying that you are in my faction. No need to actually reveal what faction you are in just let me know in thread and I can send you a PM.
-
So yea I totally missed that post where maill clarified about tie votes. I don't expect you to believe me but I also think that hoping nobody notices a blatant lie is a pretty stupid thing for a GA to do. Nobody had even asked me to clarify my vote, so why would I volunteer a lie to answer a question nobody asked?! Also I find it quite ridiculous for you to say that"because of Clanky's plan" you may be in a PM with a GA! There's no way you could've PMd a GA yourself or been PMd by one if I hadn't suggested using PMs. Sorry but that's just completely wrong. It's also ridiculous to say that because of my plan people didn't follow your plan. Firstly people had already disagreed with yours and were discussing other options before I had even suggested mine. At least one player (STINK if I recall correctly) said that he was going to go where he wanted regardless of what anyone tried to plan. If anything your plan helps the GAs more than mine since it causes players to collect themselves into large groups which is exactly what we don't want since it takes away the best aspect of rooms that makes it difficult for the GAs to kill anyone if we are all spread out in small groups. That's not even mentioning the fact that some factions would get a big head start because they can all congregate in a better building. If we had followed mine and Lopens plans correctly instead we would have at least a large group of players knowing their factions from the PMs and no large groups of players forcing the GAs to risk being detected by attacking within the small group in there location. About me being less helpful and active this game than normal sure that's true. I did put forward a plan that despite what you say isn't the reason players have PMs with GAs. So I tried to help and have still posted more than probably half of the people in the game but I suppose I am being less active than normal still. That has to do with rl since I am approaching the end of my term and have a bunch of projects due including one I just handed in today, a presentation I had to do today, another project due tomorrow as well as an exam not to mention having playoffs for both my basketball and volleyball teams today and yesterday so yes I am fairly distracted from SE at the moment. I am sorry for that. Oh and one more thing, firstly I said nothing about it not being you attacked yesterday I only mentioned that it does make sense for blade to have been killed for that reason. I didn't even mention you in that post.

I'm in the Warehouse with BurntSpaghetti, Sart, and PK. The GAs will probably go for who the best bet for Bankers are and that seems to include anyone who may post something about potentially being one. So Ada Aman I recommend that you get some protection on yourself your banker contact because it doesn't seem like they are being very secretive of their role.
