Yeah. Im not sure Shaft.ed fully gets the role. Or maybe I dont. As I understand it, the point is Sylar cant kill if he's jailed. (a jailkeeper isnt a doctor. It's a doctor AND full role blocker combo). So the fact that Sylar didnt kill last night points to Gorgon directly as being the SK.

I'd argue Gogron is the least likely to be the SK. CKD is basically a SK Doc, he targeted Gorgon and no one was killed by the SK last night. It's not rocket science.
Or, Gorgon is the SK and he got Jailed.
:oops: That shaft.ed guy is clearly a moron.

No, shaft.ed is also right. It could either be that the SK targetted a Jailed Gorgon or a Jailed Gorgon could not perform the SK kill.

Well simple numerical odds are greatly in favor of Gorgon being the SK. But it should be noted that Gorgon's role is probably one of the most useful to the SK if not the most so he would be a likely target.

Exactly. That's why I said Gorgon would make a rather dangerous SK if he was one.

Well, maybe one way to go about this, is for ckd to continue jailing Gorgon and see if there are still no SK kills.

1. I don't know anything about the flavour
2. The lack of a second kill implies that the jailed player was either designated killer, or designated kill target. Gorgon's power seems to me to make killer the more likely option- though not certain.
3. I would prefer, for I-would-think obvious reasons, to not reveal my doc protect target, though it's fairly obvious it wasn't ZA (assuming 'shot' means mafia kill. @ Adele: did you distinguish between groupscum and SK kills in the previous smalltowns?)

Fonz, Seol clearly stated that the mafia would use a gun. The SK will remove the brain of the person they kill. So the missed kill was certainly the SK.

I suggest that from now on, until at least the SK performs a kill, ckd jails Gorgon every night.

They would both happen simultaneously.

Also, for those who missed them, all kill MOs are in the opening posts.

Wow, more to catch up on than I expected. I'll get up to speed by the end of day.

And I'll leave you in suspense as to whether or not I used my ability and am now dead.

I support this sentiment as well.

Seems as though it would be good to hear from DGB and mathcam before we hear from Yvonne.

I just want to raise this as a point:
The Mod wrote: SK (1): Despite appearances, you are Sylar. ... Each night you
may
target a player and kill them and eat their brains. Doing so will mean you gain their Powers1.
Italics are mine.

What if Sylar has just decided that the smart move for now is to not kill anybody?

QFT. If he didn't want to get caught he could have just killed Yvonne then noone can link it to him. There's no other danger involved.

That all depends on who he is. I hope it's as simple as - it's Gorgon. I just want to raise the idea that he may try to let the town and mafia do his dirty work for him until the watcher/tracker and Adele are dead.

I joined this game during night, forgot about it. I only joined to push Adele over the edge of insanity, but I never played a "smalltown" game before, I hardly even play open games.

I targetted Gorgon. I looked at the list, and the roles, and I picked him because...

...it would make Gorgon immune to being targeted by Powers for the night (which he already is on account of his role) and incapable of using his own Power (which is to hide).

I just laughed thinking at the giant migraine Seol would get trying to wrap his head around that one.

So... you want to kill Adele? I'm in. But first, I should read the game. Fasten your seatbelts.

Random musings.

shaft.ed cannot possibly be scum on account of his role.
mathcam cannot possibly be scum on account of his role.
Yvonne cannot possibly be scum on account of her role.
The Fonz cannot possibly be scum on account of his role.

Adele is not likely to be scum on account of her role. I'll try to convince myself otherwise.
cicero is not likely to be scum, but iffy.

CKD's role might very well be scum.
TSQ might very well be scum.

Gorgon's role is VERY SK-ish. Very.

Looking at roles only...
I'd vote for:
1. Gorgon
2. TSQ/CKD
3. cicero/Adele

I can't vote for shaft.ed, mathcam, Yvonne, The Fonz. Not today anyway.

OK now I read the game, paying special attention to my top suspects.
