If we're going with full role titles, I'm Orlachmar, Bearer of the Excoroperditio. I really need to go read the histories and find out what that is exactly, though. Apparently it's a potion of bad-assery.


Also, we haven't heard from Eldritch or Zetsu in quite a while either.
Thul2008-08-03 03:08:59
Okay, I somehow misinterpreted something else you were saying about masons, Sakana. Apologies.

I'm really not sure that going after Requiem is a bright move. He was the very first to come out with a nameclaim, and a risky one at that, which would be a dumb, dumb, dumb move if he were scum of any sort. And especially carrying the "Bearer of the Excoroperditio" title, which is Latin for "hey, I want to be in the hot seat."

I don't want to put a vote on Requiem right now, but a roleclaim-force is probably inevitable.
Unknown2008-08-03 03:16:08
Perhaps, but I don't see much motive for a scum to chose Orlachmar as a fake roleclaim for two main reasons. Besides the fact that it puts a glaring red target on their forehead, it is also very, very likely that someone who takes up such a large role in the Histories and the Basin would infact be someone's actual role.

Of course, he is scum and he might be doing it in the hopes that we take into Orlachmar's tragic/heroic downfall, instead of the fact that he's basically soulless now.

I do not think I will vote for Requiem, at least not based on his claim (yet).
Unknown2008-08-03 03:18:42
He could be scum, that is.

I still think that Thul is most suspicious. My longer post earlier has the three quotes that have Lorick asking Shamarah for input, and then immediately following suit. I don't really have enough of a feel for Shamarah yet to necessarily draw the conclusion that he's scum. Lorick might have just been seeking advice from a known strong player to guide his actions, so it doesn't really imply anything other than my impression of shadiness.

Given my reasoning previously stated, I don't really see what Thul did as all that scummy. But I also don't see Revan as more suspect than Lorick, either.

I'll give it until later tomorrow (I have a 9 hour defensive driving class, followed by a bachelor party, followed by work at the crack of dawn which covers the next day and a half where I'll be posting little if at all) and then I'll choose one of the two. A couple people are fingering Lorick right now. Or maybe Shayle just did it more than once. Any chance you'd consider changing your vote?

Obviously you missed it. I think you're lying. My point was that even if I'm wrong, the loss of a 2 man mason group isn't really a big deal, and it means we have a confirmed townie. And yes, I read where you said it wasn't necessarily only 2 people, I'm just explaining my last post.

Also, I still don't think Thul is all that scummy. My point was that even if I did think so, there's no way I could that quiickly from following his suggestion full speed to voting to lynch him without slating myself for day 2 lynch.

I might change my mind at some point, but given what we have to go on right now, I'm not getting the scum sense from Thul.

So since our options are you or Revan, and I don't think it's really either of them, I'm picking you. Still. Of course, you made it easier by essentially stating that by killing you, we can confirm Revan's loyalty. So anyone voting for him could just as easily vote for you instead, unless you have a better reason not to.

Also, towards the cop, I'd suggest investigating Lorick rather than Revan. It should do the same thing, and it's possible for cult leaders and godfathers to appear loyal to the town.


Between these two posts you stay attached to the idea that we should lynch a mason groupie lorrick or revan while every one is abandoning that lynch train.... You then lose interest in thul and lorrick when I brought the spotlight on you staying on them long after every one is being well convinced they are townie.
Unknown2008-08-03 03:26:39
I am sorry you are right outta the two masons I attached to the idea that every one was attached to killing revan even though you still really wanted to lynch lorrick a little more than thul and revan. Your correct but the matter of the deal is you were still really sticking to them like a man trying to rejumpstart a train like his life depended on it then you bailed and attached to me a little after I started pointing that out.
Revan2008-08-03 03:53:35
wow, is it still day 1? Damn =/

Yes. dry.gif

Not particularly sure what to think at the moment. By his own admission, Thul professes to be good at making up roleclaims - put this into conjunction with sparking off the nameclaiming in the interests of 'gathering more information' and a slightly disjointed roleclaim when others have noted that their own role/powers are logical in nature.. I'm not entirely convinced, but the claim does seem valid in its construction, if nothing else, and he is the first to claim.

Hmm. Unvote for the moment, I'm off out. Going to see what turns up in the meantime, will post again when I get back.

On another note, Lorick passed Shiri in the post count for this topic. I'm frankly amazed that Shiri would ever let such a thing happen. tongue.gif
Unknown2008-08-03 03:55:53
Hmm well, Unvote Revan. Time for me to head to sleep, I will recast my vote in the morning after giving it more thought and reading what happens in the meantime.
Unknown2008-08-03 04:21:21
Can we get a modprod on Zetsu and Eldritch?

@Shou: Yes, but Shiri has 0 fluff posts. Lorick has lots of them.
Daganev2008-08-03 04:22:35
Just got back and have 12 pages to read.... damn..


will give my thoughts in a minute
Unknown2008-08-03 04:27:18
Bah. Silferras said that. Whatever.

Also, for the record, at the beginning of the first quote from Sakana, I still meant to say Lorick. I'm not sure why I've been having such a hard time saying Lorick instead of Thul.

But yes, Sakana, I think Lorick is scummy. I've been saying it for a couple days now. It wasn't a big secret, and I certainly wasn't trying to cover it up. But like I also posted at least twice, and possibly up to four times, I think that the Revan/Lorick situation is best left to an investigator at night. In the mean time, I think you exhibit plenty of neo-crazy person signs. And then Bael randomly follows your lead for no reason.
Shayle2008-08-03 04:37:14
Jeez. I spend one day outside my house having fun and come back to like 9 pages.

First, unvote: Thul Claim looks as plausible as any.

Second, I'm going to do a big WTF: okieSakana Seriously, just... wtf.gif

Third, Lorick is still acting weird. I don't understand all the posting of nonsense. Revan is still being Revan. requiem is still on my watch list.

No vote for now. I don't have enough reasonable suspicion on anyone.
Unknown2008-08-03 04:40:20
Ah, Unvote: Requiem, didn't see that Sham had that vote on him.
Unknown2008-08-03 04:45:25
Right now, okieSakana's posts seem to be the most sporadic and inconsistent. She seems pretty shifty and very prone to change her mind at wierd moments. Not to mention the random blub-blubbing, that started after a few posts as if to convince people of her innocence.

Vote: okieSakana
Daganev2008-08-03 04:58:07
unvote

I'm currently trusting all the claims that have been said at this point.

My thought is that the scum are currently the people who joined the Revan/Thul trains, but don't have a lot of posts.

I have to go wash the dishes now, but maybe someone can look back at the thul/revan trains, and see if any of those people on the train have very few posts?
Daganev2008-08-03 05:01:50
Also, I don't understand the reasons for going against Ooki. He looks like an interested noob to me. What exactly is he doing that is scummy? Each person seems to have thier own reasoning. Very odd.
Unknown2008-08-03 05:32:52
I am just a complete spazzy newb. I also have a long term plan for mafia games to stay unreadable. I plan to change my style of play everygame. Perhaps next game I will lurk and post with punctuation maybe another game I will mimic and follow somebody but type all one color. I am also staying on requiem I was at first just flip floping onto trains in an atempt to get day1 to not take 20 pages. I however now am very stuck on requiem he just simply feels like the best first day target from what I have read and thought about granted depending on what he is when he dies will probably drastically change my thoughts on people. I currently believe thul and the masons. However if requiem is a plain towny or something of that manner like a doctor etc I am gunna be on thul and the masons like butter on a fatties top priorty list.
Unknown2008-08-03 05:34:57
I can also say I have no idea why bael sides with me maybe he likes my reasoning maybe he gets good vibrations from me I dunno. I am not here to dominate your minds I will leave that to some illithids or something of that manner. Quickly go invest in iron will before you are mindthrust for 20 d 10
