If someone is about to be lynched, can they trade items and gold after the lynch goes through? Also, can we trade an item for 0 gold?


1. You cannot trade with a majority lynchee during Twilight. However, if the challenge has not been resolved you can still trade with other people.
2. If you wanted to do that, you'd just GIVE ITEM TO X.

Hmm, the leader part is interesting. If anyone is stupid enough to vote me in then i will take it. As for a lynch vote I am holding off for now. Others can random vote and all that great stuff.

Hmm, actually maybe we should have the investigator type person make themselves known, and vote them as leader...


Except keep in mind that the leader is on lynch immune not nightkill immune.
Unknown2008-07-15 22:13:49
That is a terrible idea. The investigator would be night killed on the first night.

I was thinking that the doctor would be protecting the investigator...

I mean, whoever gets voted leader is getting night killed.. might as well make sure we have the doctor protecting someone extra usefull.

Ok, I've been thinking and you guys know my policy has always been "go big or go home". With that in mind, Nominate Visaeris for Leader and here's my roleclaim (paraphrased per rules)

My name is Slogoth. I'm a Dragonslayer. A big, half-troll dragonslayer with a dragonsword, heavy-duty armor and a dull-brown pack. I've made a pretty decent living over the years hunting Wyrms, Wyverns, and anything with wings, scales, and a mean temper. I win with the fellowship.

In terms of abilities, I have Dragonslaying as a challenge power. I can dispatch dragons easily. I am also resilient, which makes it harder for me to be daykilled/nightkilled. A *lot* harder.

On a more OOC level, I'm also pretty smart, so it'd be good to lock me in as a townie and run with it. But that's up to you guys. Any questions about my claim?

Random.org says:

Vote: Amarysse
Nominate Othero for leader


Alright. May be gone for a couple of hours.
Unknown2008-07-15 22:25:03
Actually, VOTE:DAGANEV Yay, random votes.
Daganev2008-07-15 22:26:43
If ye not be tellin any lies, old dragon slayer, den a resilient man like yeself should be letting our fearless leader have his own protection. Ye are safe enough from d'warlocks and psychopaths enough allready. But ye can buy me some ale if ye like!


Rika! Othero said only d'stupid people would pick him as leader... yer not stupid are ye?
Unknown2008-07-15 22:29:54

Except, again, the protection is only from Lynching and nothing else. I'm beginning to wonder at you, Daganev, because for the third time: Leader only gets lynch immunity, not NK/DK immunity.

If anything my resilience gives me an advantage in my claim to being leader material, simply because if a doctor gets roleblocked I still have a very solid chance at making it through the night.

Also, I hate dwarfs.

Not so much as part of my role, but more on an OOC level because I hate short people and people with accents. wtf.gif

Well, this is definitely an interesting event. Hail, travelers! And well-met. You do appear strong, Slogoth, but I do not know if that fully fits the requirements of being our leader. It seems to me that someone who also knows the land between here and wherever we're headed would be a better fit-- while you claim to be well-equipped to slay a Dragon, surely there is much more we will face along the way.

Might any of you be better equipped than our good friend Slogoth here? I can understand being reluctant, but if you are not willing to admit to some expertise that will aide us in our travels, it seems we have little other choice than to accept him at his word for now.
Arix2008-07-15 22:36:40
If there is a challenge, and you use a r elevant challenge skill, do we PM that to you or post it here, cuz I didn't see
Unknown2008-07-15 22:40:15
Challenges will be structured into vote form.
Daganev2008-07-15 22:40:34
ofcourse you only get lynch not nightkill immunity...

But what does that have to do with anything? The doctor is going to be protecting the leader. (be stupid if they didn't, as then we will vote a leader and then they will die without being able to have any of the benefits) So I'm going to assume that for the first few nights, the leader isn't going to get killed (because of the protection on them from the doctor, not because of an innate ability of being a leader)

Also, you said its harder to kill you during the day, (so why should we make you leader and make you immune to lynch? you are already protected during the day as well)

Sounds like you can take care of yourself and don't need the added bonus of being a leader.
Daganev2008-07-15 22:42:58
Oh, and I'm going to vote that we lynch Rika, I think its a pretty dumb move to randomly vote for a leader, as we might accidentally vote for a warlock or a psychopath, and then we will die before we get to the plans for building the airship, and I want my plans to build an airship.
Thul2008-07-15 22:44:27
Okay. Stop and think this out. The leader vote is fairly critical, as it looks to be an ongoing effect which will hamper our ability to oust scum. We want to minimize the chance of giving this ability to scum as much as we possibly can. Random voting is not the way to go with this.

Visaeris has taken the right sort of step, here... we'll want to know a bit about our leader before we go into things (both in a game mechanics sense, and in an RP sense. "Hey, let's cast random votes to see who gets to lead" isn't something you'd logically do on an adventure like this. Or any sort of endeavor, come to think of it.)

As has been noted, our leader, assuming he or she is not scum, is going to be a high-priority target for nightkills. As such, I'd ask that anyone with a significant ability refrain from running for leader. Anyone else, I'd like to hear as much as you can divulge about yourself before I'll consider nominating you.

Slogoth (Visaeris,) why are you going on this quest?
Unknown2008-07-15 22:45:51
At some point a more important target will crop up, such as an eavesdropper or investigator. When that occurs, our doctor must be sure to protect them. Which means that my resilience will come into play, and I'll have a good chance of continuing to assist us in trying to achieve our goals.

To address Xenthos' concerns, I may not know the lay of the land but I have the mental capacity and the focus to get us where we need to be. I've fought plenty of battles and I've been in a lot of sticky situations, and I can handle something as simple as a quest for a bit of treasure.

The way I see it, the leader needs to be someone we know is on our side and is above reproach. I've told you exactly who I am and all the specifics, and I've got the added bonus of being able to hold my own when the doctor must inevitably shift to save another. Sure, the first night the leader will probably be safe, but the second? The third? My durability is a boon to the position.

Me skills will definitely come in handy, but der might be some who be more handy den me.
