Role: You are the dark child.

Win Condition: You do win if I wake up before the morning of the Eight day.

Alignment: You not prevent me from waking.

Night move: Each night PM me the name of one other player. You will shadow that player and see everything they do and everything that someone does to them that night. They will not know that you are tracking and watching them, because you are the Dark Child.

Once the Night 1 deadline has expired, or I have received night moves from all players who have one, I will post an opening scene and open the game thread.

The Night 1 deadline is March 9th sometime after 0001 GMT.

Incidentally its been the hottest day of the year and have been drowning myself in lemonade... a little useless fact for you...

Hope you are enjoying your hottest day. I live in Canada where it is still chilly out and we are beginning to suspect that summer will never come.

More importantly - it strikes me as interesting that you are a watcher and a tracker, which is a very powerful role combination that most people council against and that Guardian is also a tracker. I know Guardian's role is true because I was informed of it by role PM when he did it.

poro's ability is confirmed to me -- i watched him he watched me and we just chased each other.

streeflo just proved his

cicero has proved his

dgb hers

mine to every person i targeted, which is lots of people, including dead and live ones.

sparky had better use ability tonight -- PORO, target sparky, and make sure he targets someone.

really its just coinflips for me at this point.
cicero being scum makes sense via flavor, thats the best ive got.

the case on streeflo seems marginal.

maybe ill re-read after finals. pc

Some language cicero? What exactly did you have in mind?

If I have this right, I target someone and die? How does that help if I die again?

I was just wildcatting for ideas. I was more thinking of you doing a
Wake Up
or
lead Adel from the dream
but that doesnt appear to be the way it works.

If you targetting someone does make you die it's possible that you should do it tonight, believe it or not. Adel has clarified that there's no special mechanic we just have to kill all the scum. So the best thing might be process of elimination and most kills. Depends on what we find out or due today though. I dont relish you dying and suddenly being outnumbered by a cult of my own creation either. :p

Ah, I see. Well if we do go that route, why not try kissing Adel, cicero? Could work? Probably not.. :P

This game is silly though but I guess I could target someone if you want.

Yes cicero, if I used my last corrupt vote Guardian would be lynched. Note that I have not used it yet, or do I yet again need to prove to you my power?

Why am I saving my corrupt votes? Well, why should I use them if I don't have to? If we get into a standoff situation with mafia, our votes will still outnumber them. Big advantage to town.

Scum godfather? You can't be serious. First of all, I couldn't be a scum godfather, because when I was lynched I was listed as TOWN. You must mean a scum deathmiller, whatever the hell that is.

Even if such a role as a scum deathmiller existed, doesn't giving scum two extra votes ON TOP of his already powerful power seem extremely unbalanced to anyone?


Once again, everyone alive so far has already died and been resurrected in some way. We are going to have to eventually lynch
someone
twice.

As for why I am voting Guardian, two reasons. First one is the previously explained cult theory. Also, two trackers in the game seems awkward. Perhaps there's a scum tracker somewhere?

On a side note, I thought QF was supposed to be able to post even after death?

Streetflo, it's a big advantage to Streetflo, regardless of alignment. A couple of thoughts. I still think you are scum and this is why:

[/quote]
Scum godfather? You can't be serious. First of all, I couldn't be a scum godfather, because when I was lynched I was listed as TOWN. You must mean a scum deathmiller, whatever the hell that is.[/quote]

You know as well as I do that I am referring to players who are scum but upon being lynched come up as town. So this quote above just reads as completely disingenuous. I am in fact talking about a scum death anti-miller. Which makes total sense in this game where death does not mean death as it does in most normal mafia games. I hear from people that you are a smart player so you scoffing and playing the "whatever THAT is" game just looks fake. You know full well that in a game that's based on resurrection, having the godfather be someone who upon being lynched comes up town isn't just plausible, at this point in the game it is LIKELY. And such a role fits very well with your bloated autocrat flavor.

Now, are the two corrupt votes overpowered? Not really. They are *corrupt*. Your power doesnt say townie in any way. You need to announce in the thread your intention to use the votes to your advantage. If anything it may be meant to provide a hint to the town that you arent what you seem to be.

I can post after death, I just happen to be as lost as everyone and not too big on mafia as of late.

Okay, so the votes are an advantage to me, yes. I'm trying to make them into town's advantage, because once I vote I can't unvote. Forcing me to use it right now merely as proof is unnecessary.

First of all, no I don't. Scum godfather and scum deathmiller thingy are completely different.

Secondly, I have NEVER
never
heard of such a role as a scum deathmiller thingy. I only know if it the other way around, and haven't even seen that in a game before. More flavor speculation... I hate flavor speculation. This is exactly what Guardian is saying to try to get you lynched. Anubis is scummy role, etc etc. Anyway, let's play your game. My role PM says that I am so corrupt I don't bother hiding it anymore, therefore I get my power. If I didn't try to hide my corruptness, how could I be a death miller?

And yes, two corrupt votes is extremely powerful in the hands of a death miller. This is also added on to the fact that vanilla mafias are already powerful. A mafia powerrole is tricky to balance as itself. Having a mafia with two powers is completely unheard of.

The role you think I have means that I can play through and get lynched once. Then come back to life as "town" and control the lynch another time using my corrupt votes. This gives me the capability of wasting a town's day lynch TWICE. All from the same player.

You say: My role name fits this role.
I say: My flavor doesn't.

You say: You are a scum deathmiller with corrupt votes.
I say: You are dumb. That's like trying to claim a Mafia-NK Immune Miller Vigilante with one free get-out-of-lynch pass. Minus the miller. It's just too powerful to try and balance in a serious game.

Now if you were accusing me of being a third-party serial killer, then my supposed way overpowered role would make more sense. But you aren't, so end of story.


Hi QF, where have you been all of today?

Smart player? Whoever told you that needs some serious reconsidering =P
