Maybe you could try putting a vote on without the intention to remove it in the near future? I mean, I agree that random voting is pointless if you're just going to remove it after an arbitrary length of time has passed.KingEnigma wrote:not put a vote on that i'm going to be taking off in the very near future.

Actually, I think people are being a little hard on KingEnigma. It's like, because KE doesn't random vote, there's suddenly all this pressure on him to make an amazing post that suddenly makes the game super-serious and gives us all an untold wealth of beautiful, delicious information. And the rest of us can just sit back and wait for him to get on with it, because hey,we'verandom voted. What haveyoudone to help the town, KingEnigma?
Like this. What do you think the last paragraph of #41 was, if not asking questions and poking at people?Elmo wrote:If you believed random voting was a good way to start the game, and you random voted, you would be trying to move the game forward. You don't, which is fine; you said in 27 that you ask people questions, poke at people, etc instead. But you're not doing that.
In fact, I think he had a very good question there, and I'd like to hear some answers. Why is everyone voting the person they are voting for? Elmo and Fark are the only ones with any particular reasoning behind their votes that I can see.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

Could you show me what exactly you've contributed so far, besides that one post I pointed out in your defence earlier? I mean, I thought Elmo was being unfair saying that you haven't been doing the 'asking questions, poking at people' thing, but besides that one post, it seems like actually, he was exactly right.KingEnigma wrote:I got an idea, I'm not going to post anything for a while, cause apparently those who don't post are invisible and because I'm here contributing I'm getting asked redundant questions.
You say you don't know who is scum yet, fine. What are you doing to try to find out?
Awesome Pants, do you really think it's helpful to try to organise a strategem for dealing with lurkers before there is any indication that anyone in this game is actually going to lurk?
Given that KE was answering a question relating to me defending him, do you really think 'defending a scumbuddy' is the obvious answer he was talking about?Rishi wrote:
I don't know about this. I really doubt that anyone would be dumb enough to defend their scumbuddy so early in the game.KingEnigma wrote:How do you interpret it?

Also, KE, if the answer is so obvious, why not just say it?
Tar, given what you currently know, do you think Farkshinsoup is scum? Please answer yes or no, and give reasoning.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

OK, this is kind of ridiculously hypocritical. Either it's scummy to evade these questions or it isn't. You can't have it both ways. Sure, maybe Timeater is using them as a smokescreen to distract from other things. Why can't you point this out AND answer the questions?Farkshinsoup wrote:You've totally sidestepped my argument by just asking me the questions that were originally asked of you. I'm sure you're hoping that I won't answer them, so that you can then argue that I've evaded answering the very questions that you yourself did not want to answer. Wish granted! If anyone else but you wants me to answer these questions, I'd be glad to.

Unvote, Vote: Grimmy, because this is exactly what I voted Timeater for, except Grimmy did it later in the day, when it's even less forgivable. And Timeater has posted actual content since then that does not read as particularly scummy to me.

I'm intrigued by how certain you are about this so early in the game. If you have read up on my scum play by now, has that affected your read any? (If you haven't, this game is a pretty short one and probably shows fairly typical scum-user.)Tarhalindur wrote:I'm pretty damn sure that iamausername is town (in fact, that read is why I asked about him earlier) - his play here reads like his play in both both Mind Screw games (where he was town). I willl check a game where iamausername was scum ASAP to double-check myself, though.
After their latest altercation, I'm seeing a possibility of a Timeater/KingEnigma scum pairing. Timeater backing off based on one fairly weak analysis post from KE doesn't feel too genuine to me.
This is really reaching.Timeater wrote:Honestly Fark, I think you just nailed your own coffin shut with this comment:

If so, why?Rishi wrote:I also think that what Fark said in a couple places were pretty bad such as the "I won't answer this. Maybe later" comment (paraphrasing here)
This question demands an answer.Rishi wrote:Of the arguments against Tim, I'll say it is pretty strange, given how much he was going after Fark, that he waits until a couple days ago to finally place a vote. It's also interesting how that vote comes on the heels of votes from me and KE. Kind of seems like Tim was waiting for a viable bandwagon. So, Tim, what's with the timing of your vote?Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

Macavity's suggestion of a policy claim for self-voters is just weird. If you think self voting is scummy enough to deserve a vote, then vote. If enough people agree with to put the self-voter in danger of actually being lynched, then they should claim. This is not the kind of thing where it makes sense to cut out the middle-man.
I don't have a clue, and I'm very interested to know the answer, being the one you singled out.Elmo wrote:Hi, I'll post something tomorrow. For now, I'm curious to see if anyone else figured why.
Put it on someone you think is more likely to be scum than anyone else?Awesome Pants wrote:What would you suggest I do with [my vote]?
Well, in the abstract, I prefer everyone to have their vote on someone at all times on Day 1. However, when you haven't given any actual reason for your vote to be on me rather than anyone else, and no one else (besides anderson, who also hasn't given a reason for his vote) has shown any inclination towards voting me, you might as well be voting no one for all the good it's doing.Awesome Pants wrote:Do you care if I leave it on you rather than take it off and don't put it on anyone?
If you don't present a case, there's nothing for me to defend against, and if it's supposed to be a 'pressure' vote, then I have to say, I'm not really feeling any. So I'm not really seeing what practical purpose your vote is serving.
~Gonna go look up some Awesome Pants meta to see if he's always so... hands-off on D1~

Me either.Rishi wrote:I also don't like IAUN's lurking
Read up on the recent Elmo spat, and I'm definitely falling on his side of the argument. Tar and forbiddan are both pushing the idea that there is no reason for him to do these things as town, and therefore he must be scum, without even vaguely considering the point that there's really no reason for him to do them as scum, either. I'm not sure I'm buying it as genuine suspicion from either one of them, it's just too much 'by the book', not enough gut.
In other news, Flask of Pestilence has compensated enough for Timeater to make me want toUnvote.

Tar, just to be sure I'm understanding your claim, you send in your investigations during the day, but don't get a result until the following night, yes?
Tar's claim certainly warrants a degree of scepticism, but I definitely think it's best to let him live for now. If my understanding of Tar's claim is correct, we should extend KingEnigma that same privelige, soUnvote, Vote: forbiddanlight.
I know people wanted to know why my vote was on KingEnigma in the first place, so I guess I should explain that a little.
Basically, when he came under pressure early on, he basically stated outright that he was going to lurk until the attention on him went away, and I don't like how well this worked for him; I think if he was town, I'm not sure that scum would let him get away with this. The reverse seems considerably more likely to happen. Also, serious bet-hedging ITP.
Now for why I'm moving my vote to FL.
Here FL tries to push through a lynch on Timeater without waiting for a claim. This is highly unlikely to benefit the town.forbiddanlight wrote:Look, I think timeater is the lynch whether he's active or not. I honestly think it would not be conducive to try to switch bandwagons with only four days left. I'm also pretty sure that tim is scum.
I also don't like the way "I think Tim is scum" is tacked on as an afterthought, it feels forced. Like, she's anticipating people suggesting that her vote is not rooted in real suspicion and wants to cut that off before it starts. I don't think that speaks to a pro-town mindset.
As I've already said, I came down pretty much entirely on Elmo's side in their debate.
What agenda was Elmo pushing by saying things like "I don't feel like being helpful today"? There's a lot of waffle, but at the core of it, she's still basically saying of Elmo's behaviour "it's scummy because it JUST IS!"forbiddanlight wrote:Lol wut? So we shouldn't lynch anti town people? Um...except for the fact that scum can act anti town to push their own agenda, sure! GREAT IDEA! LET'S MAKE THIS THE NEW META!

Going back to #313, which covers all the main points against Macavity, if I'm not mistaken, I think the only really solid point is his fence-sitting during the Fark/Tim debate.
He's explained the question about Timeater's knowledge of the theme, and I don't see a reason to doubt that explanation. I'm not really seeing how the argument about what constitutes OMGUS says anything about Macavity's alignment. And I'm not sure that "Information Instead of Analysis" is a stronger scumtell than "No Information or Analysis, or much of anything, really", which Grimmy, andersonw and Awesome Pants (pre-replacement) have all been pretty guilty of.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

I just thought of something interesting.
Fark, if you are a town-aligned cylon, why would you make this random vote?Farkshinsoup wrote:Vote: Channeldelibird

Dude, your centurion is showing.
Gonna go back and look for any more inconsistencies like this, since up until FL's claim, it seemed like everyone was assuming we had Humans = Town and Cylons = Scum, although maybe that was just me interpreting things this way because that was my assumption. And it doesn't make sense for town-aligned cylons to think this, wheras it would make sense for scum-aligned cylons, so if any of our claimed cylons were clearly making this assumption pre-claims, I think that may be a pretty big scumtell.
Obviously, this rests on our assumption that the scumgroup is Cavil's cylon faction being correct, but I can't think who else it could be that fits with the theme at all.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

KoC, would I be right to assume that you use your power during the night?
The point is that he voted me for having a Cylon as an avatar, indicating that he is assuming the scum in the game are Cylons, which doesn't seem to make sense for someone who knows that at least one Cylon (himself) is town. I mean, if he'd been Sharon Agathon or Caprica Six, it might make sense, since they've got pretty well established human connections and would make sense as anomalies, but a random #2 wouldn't be town unless a lot of other Cylons were.Flask of Pestilence wrote:I'm a bit confused by the quick wagon that's formed on Farkshinsoup. I mean yes, he's claimed to be a number 2, which is what I am as Leoben Conoy, but I don't understand the portion mentioned by iamausername as I thought his vote during the random vote "stage" was just random chatter. Why does his mentioning something about a centurion lead you to believe this is some kind of inconsistency?
I'm totally buying his explanation that he didn't know for sure if he was town, though, so I don't think it's at all voteworthy when I've read him as pretty pro-town elsewhere. I do think it was worth bringing to attention though, because I think some scum almost certainly got lured into the sudden wagon on him that came out of it.
Unvote, Vote: MacavityLock.
because everyone else who hopped on that wagon is protected from lynch today due to their claims, I believe. Not particularly thrilled with this vote, but it's better than a No Lynch.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

Looks like Grimmy is next on the list to fullclaim and thus dissolve his wagon (I'm assuming this is going to happen because I'm pretty sure I know what he's going to claim already). Really, when we're getting to the point where more than half the players have fullclaimed I'm starting to think we might as well just go ahead and have the rest do it as well.

Not true. See Post #507. And my question in Post #577; the reason I asked that was to see if I could catch him out claiming to have a night power when clearly everyone else's powers are used during the day. Clearly, he cottoned onto that, but as you pointed out, that still shows him up, because he'd actually already claimed his power was used at night.Elmo wrote:Do you think he's lying, Iam? Why? You didn't seem to suspect him at all before now.
That's twice he's backtracked on his claims when they were shown to be inconsistent with everyone else; the day/night power, and also the part where he originally said he knew for certain that there are two Cylon factions - Cavil's and D'Anna/Natalie's - then later claimed that this was pure speculation on his part based on the fact that his role PM says he aims for the peaceful unity of human and cylon.

Well, as Tar got an innocent on camn, it does seem like aVote: Rishiis kind of a no-brainer. His actions regarding Macavity yesterday are deeply suspicious, considering Macavity's flip, there was no kill last night and Fark claims to have blocked him. It's pretty damning.
Here's everything Rishi had to say about Macavity yesterday:
Rishi wrote:
Self-voting is pretty crazy. I think there's a very narrow range of possibilities where it's actually a good play. However, to say that it deserves an auto-claim is a bit too much of a stretch.MacavityLock wrote:
Honestly, I've never seen it done before. It's an idea I recently had (but didn't actually bring up) in another game where someone self-voted. (Game ongoing.) To me, it feels like self-voting is inviting a lynch on oneself. It feels like de facto L-1. I'm really not sure, which is why I brought it up as a question here, but I think it might be a strategy worth trying.andersonw wrote:
Why do you think this? Could you give an example of a game where it was helpful?MacavityLock wrote:Given what I've seen in other games I've read, I think it makes good sense to officially request a claim from any self-voter. How do people feel about this?
Obviously, that strategy would not come in to play during random vote stage.
What's especially bad about your statements is that you're not even voting for Timeater and you want a claim from him? Anyway, I still would like Timeater to explain his actions, but I also want to know what the deal is asking for a claim from a person who you're not even voting for.Rishi wrote:
But were you supporting the idea of a claim? My impression is that you thought that claiming was a good idea, when, in fact, it wasn't.MacavityLock wrote:I was asking for people's opinions on a claim, not directly asking for a claim. Sorry if that wasn't clear. If people aren't for that, and it sounds like most aren't, then I'm fine with not going there, and just asking for an explanation.
And that's it. Considering the fact that the Macavity wagon actually did "pick up the steam it deserved" after this, and Rishi had absolutely nothing to say on that matter, this seems like some pretty obvious distancing.Rishi wrote:In fact,I probably wouldn't be willing to help lynch anyone right now except for Fark and MacavityLock (whose case never picked up the steam it deserved). Maybe one of the lurkers, if it came down to it (like Awesome Pants or andersonw), but only right at deadline. As for other wagons, no one has made a convincing enough case yet, for me.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

It was a cunning ruse. See, if Kison had claimed something different to what Tar had already claimed, we could pretty much assume that he is scum.
As he didn't, we didn't really learn anything useful; he could be telling the truth about his role, he could be astute enough to figure out what me and Elmo were doing and dig through Tar's posts to find the right fake claim. But there was absolutely no downside to this plan; either it works, and we catch scum, or it doesn't, and nothing changes. So, clearly it was worth a try.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

By my count, Rishi was only at L-2 before that unvote, but whatever.
I understand that I am (and should be) under scrutiny for being on the wrong wagon at the end of the day, but I don't see anything wrong with my actions regarding Fark.
Here's the original post I made:
I stand by everything I said here; if people were clearly making the assumption that humans are town and cylons are scum despite claiming to be pro-town cylons, that would be a big scumtell. Do you disagree?iamausername wrote:I just thought of something interesting.
Fark, if you are a town-aligned cylon, why would you make this random vote?Farkshinsoup wrote:Vote: Channeldelibird

Dude, your centurion is showing.
Gonna go back and look for any more inconsistencies like this, since up until FL's claim, it seemed like everyone was assuming we had Humans = Town and Cylons = Scum, although maybe that was just me interpreting things this way because that was my assumption. And it doesn't make sense for town-aligned cylons to think this, wheras it would make sense for scum-aligned cylons, so if any of our claimed cylons were clearly making this assumption pre-claims, I think that may be a pretty big scumtell.
Obviously, this rests on our assumption that the scumgroup is Cavil's cylon faction being correct, but I can't think who else it could be that fits with the theme at all.
Fark's random vote was just an example of the kind of thing I was looking for; I did read through all the claimed cylons in isolation looking for more examples, as I said I would, but I didn't find any further examples of this behaviour, so I didn't take that any further.
I asked Fark for an explanation of an inconsistency, he gave a good one. That's all. I didn't vote for him (and, in fact, never have), and the fact that others decided to start a wagon on Fark on this basis is not my responsibility. And if I was trying to get him lynched for this, I don't know why I'd immediately turn around and decry that wagon in my very next post. Seems to me that that would be rather counterproductive.
I mean, if no one else had agreed with my point, and I'd dropped it, I can see how that could look like I was feeling around to see if the wagon had any legs before I commited myself to it, but I really think the fact that onedidform, and Ididn'tgo along with it proves that that wasn't my intention.
In short, yes, but I wanted to see if Fark could think of a good reason. And he could.Elmo wrote:The Iam thing is a Big Deal to me. We need to deal with that before ending the day.

If not a full massclaim, how about if just anyone who has a role that could have prevented a kill last night claims?
I'd still be in favour of a full massclaim though. I think it's almost a certainty that we only have one scum left, and with no town deaths yet, it's entirely possible that we'll be able to coordinate power role actions to guarantee a town victory.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

If I'm putting the info you've given together correctly, I have no idea why you wouldn't just claim at this point. I can't really see a downside to it, tbh.

Grimmy, anderson, do you guys think maybe you could drop a few more 'subtle' hints that you're masons? It's just I'm not sure that everyone has realised that the two of you are masons.

Anyway, I've got today's results back from the mod, so time for claiming is now. camn is probably scum.
First of all: I am Gaius Balter [sic, I'm sure Gaeta will authorise those ballot papers anyway], and I have invented another crappy cylon detector. Twice per day, I can test someone's blood to find out if they are a cylon. Only problem is, my test has a 40% chance of failing.
Now, at first I was thinking that this was a ridiculously good power, because I thought that meant a 40% chance of getting an 'investigation failed' and no result. But I later found out it actually means a 40% chance that my result will be 'insane'. Which makes the power rather less useful, in fact. And THEN I found out that there appear to be a whole bunch of cylons aligned with the town, which would have made it even more useless, were it not for our mass-raceclaim. Props to Elmo for pushing that one.
But anyway, I figured the only way this would ever give me useful results would be to investigate the same person repeatedly, so I have used both my day one, both my day three, and both my day four investigations on KingEnigma/camn. Day two, I switched to Tarhalindur/Kison, since I figured his innocent result meant the two of them were either both scum, or both town, but camn just kept on acting scummy and we've probably only got the one scum left, so I'm figuring that either Kison is naive, or camn has immunity to his investigations. Neither seem particularly unlikely, since we apparently have three sorta-cop roles (at least).
My results so far say: camn is a cylon, camn is a cylon, Kison is not a cylon, Kison is not a cylon, camn is a cylon, camn is a cylon, camn is not a cylon, camn is a cylon.
I'm assuming that we only have one scum left, who is a cylon. camn and Kison both claimed to be humans. Therefore:
If camn is scum & Kison is not, they've gone SSSSSSIS
If Kison is scum & camn is not, they've gone IIIIIISI
If both are town, they've gone IISSIISI
Chance of the first case happening = (0.6^7)*0.4 = 0.01119744 (A)
Chance of second case happening = (0.4^7)*0.6 = 0.00098304 (B)
Chance of third case happening = (0.6^3)*(0.4^5) = 0.00221184 (C)
Since it's certain that one of these three did happen, A/(A+B+C) gives us the probability for case 1, B/(A+B+C) gives case 2, C/(A+B+C) gives case 3.
Which all adds up to:
78% - camn is scum
7% - Kison is scum
15% - both are town
Next post I'll do some traditional scumhunting and put together a case against camn, but for now I'll just stick with my mathematical mumbo jumbo. Still want Grimmy to explain why on earth he killed Fark, but I don't think he's our man. And I honestly don't understand why anyone is gunning for anderson.
p.s. check out the first letter (ignoring quotes) in each of my first ten posts for some tasty bread (all of these were before I got clarification on the no result/insane confusion, I believe).

Hey, I'm still here. I'll get on with posting a case on camn soon, promise. I will say that I'm surprised her reaction to my semi-guilty wasn't either "you're lying, vote: iamausername" or "well there's still a 15% chance I'm town, you must have just been unlucky", but I don't think her actual response makes her look any better, that's for sure.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

Why I won't be considering a vote change until camn is dead:
As I've said before, I found it extremely suspicious that KingEnigma was allowed to completely get away with a plan of "lurk until they leave me alone" even when heKingEnigma wrote:I got an idea, I'm not going to post anything for a while, cause apparently those who don't post are invisible and because I'm here contributing I'm getting asked redundant questions.stated up front that that was his plan. If you were scum, and this guy was not your buddy, would you not be chomping at the bit to toss a noose around his neck then and there? I'm pretty sure I would.
Just gonna let this one speak for itself.KingEnigma wrote:I think Timeater may be crazy. But I don't think its impossible for him and Farkshinsoup to be scum together.
Don't have anything further to say from KingEnigma's reign, because he really did hold true to his promise of being a lurking lurker who lurks, and I don't think I can state enough how scummy I find that.
camn comes in around the same time as Elmo proposes the mass race-claim, and acts all kinds of clueless as to what is going on. I'm particularly having trouble buying her apparently not understanding why forbiddan was asked to claim at L-1. It really feels like she's feigning ignorance about things to stall on the whole race-claim deal. This is not the only time she appears to be feigning ignorance.
LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE. And if the entire case I had on camn was this, I would not even be considering a vote change until camn is dead. There is absolutely no reason that a townie should lie here. None.camn wrote:This slightly bothers me.
But this whole massclaim thing has bothered me.
But I guess I have to play.
To the best of my knowledge, I am not a cylon.
FOS: ELMOfor engineering this massclaim thing so early. I think it tells us much less than we think. . . and gives the scum a lot of targets.
Hopefully it will work out.
I think there is a discussion here. Show me some potential setups where the race-claim would have hurt us. Tell me why you didn't explain these thoughts and refuse to claim, rather than just straight up lying about your claim. MAKE ME BELIEVE.camn wrote:In my head, I can see setups that may or may not exist where race-claiming could be hurting us. But there really is no discussion here, because it's done. I don't think it SHOULD have been done, but it is.
Hey, remember when I said that Fark's random vote was sort of scummy because it implied that he was assuming cylon=scum despite claiming to be a pro-town cylon, and all of a sudden this incredibly opportunistic and scummy wagon grew on Fark in like five seconds?
Well, I just wanted to point out that the second & third votes on that were MacavityLock and camn, respectively. And that camn immediately demanded a full-claim from Fark on that basis alone, despite having previously made so, so many statements saying she was anti-any-claims-ever, to the point where she'd outright lie about whatever minor claim she did make out of some nonsensical paranoia that saying "I'm a cylon" would lead the scum to instantly deduce her full name, role and credit card number.
Oh, and then after Fark has claimed, she moves straight onto this:

I cannot conceive of the possibility that perhaps they would like to set up support for a fake claim of a role like, say, a jailkeeper.

I don't know what gender the scum is. Because it sure isn't me. No sir. -- if HE OR she leaves the town to lynch anderson, then he (or she) gets to choose the next death.

And you don't think any of this is scummy?shouldanderson see any of this as scummy? Because it sure sounds like pretty normal mason behaviour to me.
point #93: prior to my claim, camn spent the whole of D4 trying to get Grimmy and anderson lynched (either or, she doesn't care which) for a significant period of D4. This is not a pro-town activity.

That doesn't look harmful!

Some sort of power role claim, yeah.Elmo wrote:What do you think about camn's obvious nervousness around the subject of claims? Do you think she was setting up e.g. a doc claim?
Not really, I just don't have any particularly compelling reason (besides "is not camn", which is pretty darn compelling) to believe you are town, either.Elmo wrote:Do you have any reason to think I'm scum?
No, because I think camn is the last scum. If I'm proved wrong about this, I'll reconsider the question.Elmo wrote:Do you think Flask is wrong about me?
I wouldn't.camn wrote:I will expect a sweet, heartfelt apology when this game is over!
Why lynch FL first? Why not go with no lynching from the start?Elmo wrote:My current sketch is to lynch FL, then no lynch continuously with camn protecting Kison, until either Kison has claimed results on everyone or there is a nightkill. How does that sound?
This doesn't make a lot of sense to me. How, exactly, do you measure which case is 'stronger', if not by which one you believe in more?forbiddanlight wrote:Because I have a stronger case on someone else and don't want to release it since I don't trust it. My intuition screams camn. I trust it over my logic.
Clearly, I understand the strength of your desire to see camn lynched, but if you have that much of a case on someone else, you should really post it.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

Yesterday, I got Elmo is a cylon, Elmo is not a cylon. So that was useless. Still waiting on today's results.
I realised overnight that my main reason for thinking Kison is town (my results say there's only a 7% chance he's scum) don't apply, because that was working on the assumption that camn would have to be human for Kison to be scum.
That plus the fact that the lack of kills don't make sense if camn is scum, unless she just felt like wasting everyone's time, lead me to the conclusion that it's probably Kison.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

I painted what I remembered of the visions (to assist with memory) then tried to help everyone out as best I can. If I'm concentrating enough on a player, I may be able to recognize them as a dangerous person (I have to take a second look at the paintings to double check, hence the receive results at night).

I am Samuel Anders, which I breadcrumbed with my first post.
I AM affiliated with the fleet. I received no indication that I was into "unification". My place is with the Fleet.
I am a Jailkeeper, though that wasn't what my PM called it. That is I roleblock and protect.
There is nothing in camn's claim that makes it more accurately resemble my role than there is in Tar's.Elapsam semel occasionem non ipse potest Iuppiter reprehendere- iamausername

This is a pretty compelling argument, though. If there was an investigation immune scum, I could just about buy this happening, but since I doubt either of Macavity or Rishi were one of those, I'm gonna have to say no to that one.Elmo wrote:f) Des is modding this game, no we do not have a day unlimited investigative role and a night jailkeeper, what the shit are you smoking; and now camn is cleared, so hurrrrrr it's kison
