Peers has been lynched. Lynch scene coming right up.

[petroleumjelly]

Rita wakes herself up from a slight snooze. "Wha-? You finally decided on somebody? Who is it?"

Peers is pushed into the front row, and Rita grins.

Maliciously

grins. One of those grins where you just know that person is crazy. Her eyes light up.

The platform begins to descend, and Rita slowly twirls her staff in her hands while eying her own image in a hand-mirror bejeweled with bones. Her lips curl contemptuously as the dais stops directly in front of her prey. "Magic wand – make this creature shrink!"

In moments, Peers is naught but the size of a gerbil. She walks over to a window peering out into space, with a small chamber underneath it for jettisoning trash. "Be gone with you, then" she says, with her back turned to the rest of you. With a

whoooosh

the chamber opens and closes. You look outside and see no trace Peers.

"He was definitely a Putty Patroller" comments Rita, picking at her teeth and burping silently. "Do better next time."

Peers, Putty Patroller, Townie, has been lynched!

It is now

Night One

. I will be gone until November 12, so deadline for actions will be 11:59 pm PST, November 16 (in the case somebody has a question I cannot answer until then which may affect their choice).

I am also searching for a replacement for killerbob. Fun stuff. If either Blight or killerbob have night actions that cannot be submitted by a partner and I cannot replace them before the night is through, I will randomize their night choice (with "No action" being one of the options).

[petroleumjelly]

Finally back from Philly. I will be processing night-choices shortly. I'll see how we're doing on replacements as well. The game will hopefully open up this evening. Thank you for your patience.

Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting...

Ooble-ooble-ooo-oo-ooo!

Those cats were fast as lightning...
In fact it was a little bit frightning...
They fought with expert timing...

They were funky Putty men from funky Puttytown,
They were chopping them up, and they were chopping them down,
It's an ancient space-age art and everybody knew their part,
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip,

Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting...

Ooble-ooble-oo-oo-URGH! *dissipates from being hit in the stomach*

UltimaAvalon, Putty Patroller, Townie, has been killed!

It is now

Joubert replaces Blight, effective immediately.

Bulooboodooboodooboodoo

Gay. Go Town

[Mirth]

Hmmmmm...interesting night choice.

I'm going to

vote: Unright

. Unright, why do you think I'm voting you now?

[Flameaxe]

Even though the question isn't directed at me, I think I might know...

/Don't feel like voting 'till (nearly)everyone checks in and such.

UA, why must you leave me...

[Mirth]

Well if you do think you know, I'd appreciate if you didn't say anything until Unright answers. I want to see what he thinks he knows.

[Flameaxe]

I figured, thus why I didn't say anything.

[Unright]

Hmmmmm...interesting night choice.

I'm going to

vote: Unright

. Unright, why do you think I'm voting you now?

Because you're basing it off the night choice?

I didn't think very highly of him because of his self-voting gimmick and I prodded UA pretty strongly over his meta-defending of Flameaxe. As such I was high on his list of suspects, but he wasn't very high on mine.

Did I miss anything?

[Cogito Ergo Scum]

Vote Originality

to put it where I left it at the end of yesterday.

Can you point out where he meta-defended me? I only remember me meta-defending his self voting.

BZZT. Wrong Answer. This has nothing to do with your attacks on Avalon. The reason I voted you:

Also, way to give away the fact that you have a named character role.

What are you talking about? I was researching Putty Patrolers! I swear!

...




......





Aw crap. That's what I get for venturing out of the newbie game areas, huh? I guess I just figured that with a theme with as many reoccuring and one-shot characters as MMPR that all 12 players are probably named characters. It's not really that much of a stretch.

I was just trying to kick-start some conversation...

Now then, unless I'm mistaken, scum try to eliminate possible protown powerroles early. Your post suggests that you have a character name. Yet, you're alive. Any comments on this?

[originality]

Seriously, I think the reason UA got NKd was because they thought he was annoying. I don't see anywhere where it could give a hint as to him being a powerrole which attracted scum attention.

Which leads me to the question of why would they kill someone they thought was annoying, (a choice only taken when scum has no leads for powerroles) instead of someone who pretty much claimed being some special role. Unright. You can see the specific quote right above me on Mir's post.

This is very odd, and unright being scum would be a reasonable answer.

so

vote Unright

until someone shows me a good reason why UA was NK'd over Unright.

[Cogito Ergo Scum]

I'll react to the Unright case as soon as he's given his own explanation.

Seriously, I think the reason UA got NKd was because they thought he was annoying.

I'm wondering how exactly you came to this conclusion.

[originality]

Seriously, I think the reason UA got NKd was because they thought he was annoying.

I'm wondering how exactly you came to this conclusion.

Are you serious? Its pretty obvious. Ok. Wonder no more:

1) UA is annoying. 2)He gave no indication of being a powerrole. Therefore, I think that they NKd him because they thought he was annoying, not because they thought he was a powerrole. Really, I explain it pretty well on the rest of my post you quoted. Admit it, you didn't read it all, did you? It really is looking like you have a personal agenda against me. Why do you want to find flaws that just aren't there? Why do you feign ignorance on matters that are already established and explained?

[jmar]

But scum killing them off just because they found him annoying? That's a bit of a stretch for me. And you don't really have anything to back up this theory.

[jmar]

them should be him. Whoops.

[Flameaxe]

That is a BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG stretch. Big even being an understatement. Orig, you logic is severly flawed (both points you made are), your day 1 actions were all scummy and stuff.

It really is looking like you have a personal agenda against me.

I'm not getting this from CES on the topic at all, nor do I see how you get it either.

Vote: Originality

Diescumdie.

[Mirth]

Originality, why do you feel the need to parrot my reasoning? Also, do you actually have any original points that make sense? Avalon being annoying would only impact nightkills for really really stupid scum.

I'm waiting for Unright's answer before I do anything further, but I have half a mind to change my vote to Originality now.

[Joubert]

Hi people, just to confirm my activity...
I'll do a thorough review of the game and present my comments as soon as possible...

[Unright]

Now then, unless I'm mistaken, scum try to eliminate possible protown powerroles early. Your post suggests that you have a character name. Yet, you're alive. Any comments on this?

Could be any number of scenarios. A doc protected me, scum figured a doc would protect me so they went after another target for Nking and/or decided it'd be easier to paint me as scum the next day. I'm not a mind-reader, just happy to be alive. Whatever the reason, it sure as hell ain't this:

Seriously, I think the reason UA got NKd was because they thought he was annoying.

Unless the scum group are incredibly petty noobs.

[Cogito Ergo Scum]

Well.. I pretty much figured so too, and I don't think Unright's really looking worse right now because of the nightkill. UA is, although annoying, a good player, and most people thought he was fairly townish.

Also:

So...you're saying this is potentially a fight between three Vanillas?

I think UA gave the impression he wasn't a Putty Patroller here.

I'd rather think scums would tend to leave annoying people alive. I think it's pretty clear that some people's annoyance pretty much screwed the town up yesterday.

Originality doesn't make much sense, and I think he's doing so to try and make Unright look bad. No unvote here.

[Mirth]

Hmmm fair enough answer.

Unvote: Unright

. I'm still suspicious of you, but your reaction makes originality eclipse you in suspiciousness. Though if you had a successful doc protection, then we have more than one killing faction.

Originality give me one good reason not to vote you right now.
