    Not everyone here's necessarily knows to be skeptical. I mean, if Joe's speaking truthfully, there's a fair number of people who don't know they shouldn't roleclaim to randoms in PM's... And here's the emote:

    Please wait while I go make a skeptical emoticon

    Vote Tally: Elbereth(0): Lopen{1} Lopen(0): Elbereth{1}, Aman{1} Bugsy(0): Lopen{2} Joe(0): Arraenae{1} Aman(1): Mark Cloudjumper(2): Elbereth{2}, Aman{2} DC(2): Arraenae{2}, Conquestor Cool. Means it's less likely that Ryuk/Holder knows who L might be at this point in time. Sheep, to be clear, did your L contact you for the first time after Joe had said in thread about having been contacted by 'L'?

    If one of the claimed L's was Mail, Aman, or DC, I'd be assuming they were fake claiming to phish for reactions. I could see Meta or Hellscythe potentially doing that too. Do you know the identity of Sheep's L? Does he know the identity of your's? (If either of you don't, I'd be on the side of keeping that way for the moment...)

    Follow up question: What if a new Holder is scanned before they have killed? My problem with this is that we have no proof that anything you say here is true. Could be the Alendi/Terris game all over again. Or even if you're actually village, there's a couple of players here who would totally fakeclaim L to multiple people to see people's reactions.
  6. Haelbarde
    You didn't answer my question... :'(If L scans the Holder before they've killed anyone, do they come up as Guilty? What about Ryuk. It's implied they would, but not explicitly spelled out.
  7. Haelbarde
    My problem with this plan is that you could be holding a Death Note, and are just baiting all the village roles into contacting you. Sure, you'd die, but if you got all the police and murderers to claim to you, the Ryuk knows exactly how to cripple the town, and gets to convert a replacement (now made easier by the fact they know who to avoid). Alv: If Ryuk or the death note holder have not personally killed anyone yet, do they come up as guilty to a scan by L? At this point, I'd rather L scans someone, and then uses them as an representative from day 2. Depending on the answer to my question, that seems like it's less danger fraught. Re: Lynch - I'd rather we lynch, even day 1. And I'm with Lopen - while it'd be nice if L could find Ryuk, based on my experience having a scanning role, you can't rely on them to find them. More thoughts coming later after I've eaten.

    What do you mean by this? Ryuk starts with a teammate, and can only have one at a time.

    I had heard of Washington before, and was it King George who makes an appearance? I've heard of him too. But not any of the others...

    So I just finished listening to Hamilton... While it's not all my sorta thing, I did enjoy it, particularly the songs with/about Eliza. "Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story" and "It's Quiet Uptown" were moving... Not a lot does that. Decidedly not good physics study music...
  11. Haelbarde
    That's quite true. I'd mentally flagged that when I read through that, but forgot to comment. I think it was said in the spec doc, and maybe even in the game - confirmed good doesn't mean confirmed right. And your point about how the eliminators react is also quite true - basically, play mind games with the village. Which is sorta the point of the game anyway.

    I've posted this in a couple of places now, but I wrote a parody for this, because of course I did: It was an interesting experience, and as much as I disagreed with the way they did most things, there were a couple of things that came out of the game which I thought could be worth learning from. One thing was giving cover for seeking roles. They have an article on their site about this practice, which is quite an interesting read. In the same part of their forum is this post, which I find amusing - it seems to advocate a manner of play more like what we're used to, and condemns the manner of play that most players in the game seemed to engage in. There was another piece of logic that I remember noting while playing, something which the players seemed to take to an extreme - the extreme was useless, but the core logic seemed sound. I'll need to go over the first two cycles and work out what it was again, so I can share it. Edit: Hmmm.... Not sure what it was (to be fair, the first 2 cycles is 32 pages / 1600 posts...). Might have been something to do the way they thought through how players seemed to defend each other. Or maybe it was the focus on the assumptions that players have when offering their opinions. I mean, some people here analyse like that anyway, I think, but it was something I thought I could get better at. Yeah, I think that was it. To me, it looked like they scrutinized way too deeply, and drew unfounded connections, but in moderation, I think it'd be quite a valuable tool.

    This lead me to this...

    I already know what song I'm going to parody for this game...

    Brownies in sundaes? What is this madness? (Although, it's actually not the worse idea. Just not something I've ever seen done...) Huh. I don't actually ever recall buying brownies from a shop. But the people I know make them regularly enough...

    I sorta have to sign up for this, don't I. Hal Heatherlocke, reporting in.

    Episode 52... Just... Wow... Yeah, so intense. It certainly got some fist pumping from me.

    Heh. Self-referential fun!

    I was already getting Suicide Squad vibes from all this, but now my headcanon is that we are the suicide squad, and Meta is the Joker (Mista J)...
  21. Haelbarde
    [colour=blue] Not yet. And Burnt would totally have hotmail. Hal might too, for different reasons

    I've never watched any wrestling before, but it was interesting watching Stephen Amell (from Arrow) fight in WWE.

    Defenestrate is a word that I was surprised was an actual thing.
  24. Haelbarde
    idiosyncratic is another nice one.
