@stricken: I agree that the first two statements you bolded are odd to see in the same post but what you bolded in purple is a perfectly valid question that we don't lose much by getting an answer to.
Assuming J-ville is town and so is his partner, that means we outted two confirmable townies. If one partner is town and the other is scum, that opens a whole new barrel of WIFOM and confusion. And there's the possibility of J-ville lying about being a mason, so why would he start coughing up the truth at this point?
I don't see any of these scenarios as being particularly good for the town with 1) so much inactivity, 2) so much indecision as a result of inactivity and 3) a deadline looming. Everyone would have to join in on a discussion for us to have a chance to persuade Fade to give us an extension. And I doubt that's about to happen. So all the possibilities that might come from J-ville regarding his possible mason partner only serve in delaying the town further from coming to an agreement on a lynch.
I am more than happy to pick up on this on Day2, but I feel at this point of the game, it would only hurt the town more than help it.
Also, I dont see how the purple bolding indicates pineapple contradicting himself or sitting on the fence.
You're right, it doesn't. I accidentally lumped the purple in with the blue and green. Blue and green are the fence-sitting and contradicting and the purple is the fishing part. I typed the sentence poorly and didn't catch it when I previewed it to correct it.
Also, werent you in favor of pursuing John despite the mason-claim? Why are you now saying that his claim makes him bulletproof?
Yes I was and still am in favor of going after J-ville. But he's claimed mason on Day1. What information is there to dispute that. Every townie who wasn't as suspicious of J-ville as I am, would, and did in this case, unvote him. The moment J-ville said "I'm a mason" most everyone is willing to give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to suspicions. He'd have to screw up majorly for any argument I'd make against him to be believed by other townie players. Until the game moves on to more days with information from lynches and NK's there's no way people are going to disagree with a mason claim. Therefore, I feel J-ville's bulletproof, for a short period at least.
I also note that you either missed or ignored the part after I mentioned bulletproof, that being "for the rest of today at the very least. And possibly further depending on night action choices." Nothing is going to touch him for the rest of Day1. And depending on what happens Night1, let's say someone that J-ville hasn't interacted with is NK'ed. His bulletproof continues into Day2, unless he makes a mistake.
Still in favor of lynching the serpent today, even more so with the deadline on us. I've been getting a weird feeling from stricken lately, so I may look into him tomorrow.
What sort of 'weird feeling' are you getting from me? I'll be happy to answer anything you put forth.

Stricken, you seem to be doing an awful lot of fence sitting about IS. It seems like every other post you're changing your opinion on him.
The fact that IS still has 6 votes is only convincing me more that he's scum. We have 2 days to lynch.
Where in the world have you seen me fence sitting in regards to IS? I started out believing him almost completely to be town to the point I helped defend him. Then later on he did some things to make me lose a bit of belief in him, enough to let him defend himself. I had one post in which I said I felt a little bit of scumminess from IS. How is that fence sitting? Look at my scum list I posted. #1 was you, #2 was TLK and #3 has shifted a bit, yes, but never to IS.
My god do I so think you're scummy. First you try to cast doubt on my alignment, barning Stealth_Ninja, who never came back to answer Chainsaw's and my question of him. And then the last line: "He he still has those 6 votes on him, people. Deadline is almost here" all implying that voting IS is better than nothing.
The blue and the green quote may seem a little contradicting, but I think they still both apply to the situation. I think, in this situation, it's not too bad for the mason partner to claim (and this is where the purple comes in) if the two masons are sure of each other's alignment. In other games, I always found it very useful to have some people alive that are confirmed, simply because you can trust them. The only disadvantage to a partner claim is that it will narrow down the amount of players with possible power roles. Outweighing the advantage and the disadvantage, I think it's not all that bad for the town to have the second mason claim, especially when some people seem to think the claimed mason is falseclaiming. I also said that I do not want the mason partner to claim right now, because I think it's better to wait until after the night(kill), until after JVille has answered my question, and until after IS has been lynched.
I agree with you in regards to having cleared people around to have reliable information. But the problem is, this is Day1. It's much too early to start outing roles and giving the mafia good targets to pick off. Maybe the other mason can claim tomorrow, once we have some more information to go off of. But not on this game day.

Well, Johnsonville, I think the question was asked and I don't recall if you answered it, and it's a very legitimate question: how certain are you that your co-Mason is town? Are you given absolute certainty, or would there be room for doubt in the PM? If the answer is 100%, then I don't think anything more need be said right now about it.
People not voting: Ice Serpant; Unstable Marionette, WCIIIMafia. Of these, Ice Serpant might be excused since he's on the hot seat. there's no excuse for the other 2 though.
No Lynch would be an incredible waste of time after all this.
Aren't you exactly repeating what I said, and what you accused me for, right now?
A mason claim would not be very harmful for the town, but it's not a good time for the mason partner to come out right now.
Yes I agree having confirmed masons is good. Reliable opinions are optimum. But I do not agree that the mason partner, should there be one, should come out this game day. I feel that if there is a mason partner, there is no need to come out Day1. Reducing power role pool, giving the mafia more concrete information or allowing a gambit play by the mafia to occur all being reasons not to.
What I’m saying is if there is a partner, possibly come out Day2. That way we hopefully have information from a lynch and possibly from a NK to give us better leads.
So my statement is “A mason claim today could be harmful to the town and it’s not a good time for the mason partner to come out.” Which is different from what you’re saying.
And I originally attacked you for what I saw, and see, as fence sitting, as you state “A mason claim would not be very harmful for the town,” (a slightly aggressive play) “but it's not a good time for the mason partner to come out right now.” (A conservative play). This is the fence sitting I’m referring to.

I AM the common "day one easy target". Since I'm obviously going to be lynched despite being town, I'd like to suggest that the Cop (if we have one) investigates Person or Jville to prove their claim.
I didn't see anything to vote for IS originally. His reactions since then have seemed scummy, and since the day is coming to a close real soon, I will make this a PSEUDO vote Ice Serpent. In other words, Ill vote for him before the deadline unless weird circumstances present themselves, but would rather not put him at lynch -1 for someone to hammer as of yet.
We have time, and i will have time to post tomorrow. I just wanna do a quick reread before i commit my vote.

Oh my freaking...
NOW can we lynch him?
@Person: I wish you hadnt claimed. John wasnt likely to be lynched today at all, and if you thought he was going to be lynched, you couldve waited longer.
@Person-Why in the world did you claim? There was no need to do so today.
@IS-Why are you trying to direct the cop? In no way does that help you or make you look any better to the rest of the players. I just don't understand why you'd make a suggestion like that.
I have no idea where to go from here. I'm still not willing to vote IS as I still think he's town, but playing badly. The same 6 people seem to be talking about the same topic and it's just running us in circles. Maybe if Unstable Marionette and The Lollipop Kids could show up and post an opinion it would help some things.

I don't really agree with this. But we also really need to lynch someone. And certain people are sitting the decision out. So I guess I will take the fall....
End of the Day Ice_SerpenT - 8 (Person, SirSleepDeprived, Pineapple, Shaniqua, Johnsonville, Archaic Knight, W3Cmafiawasnotbroken, Buttercup)
The Lollipop Kids - 3 (Chainsaw Kitten, stricken, Stealth_Ninja)
Johnsonville - 1 (The Lollipop Kids)
The time had come to put an end to the day. The woman known as Ice_SerpenT had aroused many suspicions, though several of the guests had felt she seemed reasonably innocent. But night had come too quickly, and the decision was reluctantly made. After all, one can never completely trust a lawyer.
A simple knife did the trick. The guests took care to remove all traces of the death, lest the hotel staff discover their game. Soon enough, they could simply pretend she was yet another victim of the original murderers...
Her personal belongings revealed the truth of her identity. She was indeed a corporate lawyer, working under the employment of the late Mr. Blue. Investigations would later show that she had no part in the wrongdoing, and her respect and loyalty to Mr. Blue was clearly evident in her work.
Ice_Serpent, The Lawyer, has been lynched. She was TOWN (vanilla).
It seemed that night was going to be a busy one. With the formal introductions out of the way, and one more guest laid to rest, the true game had begun.
It is now Night 1. Send in your night actions. Day 2 is projected to begin on Wednesday, pending replacements.
Just a reminder that Night is scheduled to end tomorrow. Please send in your choices if you haven't already, or let me know that you are choosing not to do anything.
The storm had softened a bit in the night, but light rain still streamed down upon the hotel, bathing it in a somber and chilling mood.
Day finally broke upon Idlesworth. As planned, the guests once again convened in the lounge to continue their game. But one of them was not in attendance.
"Where's our note-taker?"
At that moment, one of the desk clerks frantically rushed through the doors. "Quick! Another one's dead!" Without even waiting for a reaction, he spun around and flew down the hallway. There was no choice but to follow.
Chainsaw Kitten lay on a small balcony, at the end of one of the hallways on the third floor. One hand had been holding a cigarette, which had evidently fallen from his fingers upon his collision with the floor. The other hand was weakly grasping the handle of the knife protruding from his stomach. Rigor mortis had already set in.
The investigation in the aftermath of the Idlesworth incident would reveal that Chainsaw Kitten was a tabloid journalist. Though not quite an honest man, he at least wasn't a murderer.
Chainsaw Kitten, The Crooked Journalist, has been murdered during the night. He was TOWN (vanilla).
Twelve men and women were left, the last semblance of an ordered jury. There was no turning back from this game.
It is now Day 2. With 12 alive, 7 votes are required to lynch.
I'm sorry to see Chainsaw go. He had some good points throughout Day 1. Right now I want to go back through, look at Chainsaw's posts and then come up with where I want to go from here.
I'm still suspicious of Johonsonville, but before I renew my attack on him I want to be sure of a few things. If I don't get to it tonight, then it'll have to be over the weekend as Friday I plan on being nowhere near a computer.

Ok, time to tell you everything I know. My role PM made sure to say that I didn't know whether my "husband" was townie or not. Because of this, I looked at his posts to see if I could glean anything from him. This is one of the real reasons that I went after I_S, but then he just started acting really scummy, so I stand by that decision. My role PM says that he was acting suspicious the last few months. Then, last night, he came in acting very suspicious (according to a PM) and then got out of bed in the middle of the night and left the room. He hasn't told me of any extra abilities that would make me think that he would have reason to leave the room, so I'm assuming he would be vanilla mafia like me. Between that and him coming out yesterday to confirm his mafia-ness for some reason yesterday, I think he's mafia.

I don't know if nom is town or scum. But I'd like to point out this type of behavior is his standard modus operandi.
Court Mafia: Day 1, hatch plan to KILL EVERYONE ELSE IN A SINGLE NIGHT, when the plan only allows him to hit 11 random players, ATTEMPTS TO FIRE ANYHOW (Roleblocked).
In other words....Nom is an impulsive player who doesn't think about planning long-term or listening to others. I wouldn't be surprised if he was town. At all.
I think the significant question we're missing is, why would John get free information implicating his mason-friend as a mafioso? I dont see why the mod would just be giving this info out like candy, which makes me think that this whole thing is John misinterpreting flavor in his PMs.
My gut tells me to pursue stricken today, so Im going to reread and see if I can find anythign substantial to back it up.
Person, I think you need to just explain. What is being said doesn't make a lot of sense. I'd like some clarity, and most everyone else that's posted today would, too. Tell us what happened.
Last night I was forced to leave my room by someone who's identity I know from my RolePM and another PM from Fade.
I have no reason to expect that player to be scum, and reason to expect that player to be town(as we were together for part of the night), but I do not know either way for sure.
I also believe the person who lured me from my room did not have a choice in the matter, but that it was an inevitable part of the game.
Because of this event, PMs were sent to me, JVille(He had to find out somehow), and I would assume the other party.
I would rather not say exactly what happened, because although I do not know for sure, I have reason to believe that part of my win requirement is for JVille not to be finding out exactly what happened.

bull****!
errr what i mean is that well bull****.
damn its hard to explain. How bout this.....this is a simple game here....nothing too complex in role issues. The special part of it is the blind techiness, (which you've blwon incidentally).
the odds that youre win req could be like that is unlikely as per hell, unless you're perhaps a cultist maybe? and the odds of taht are increasing. it would make sense for a mason to realize something was wrong (tho usually they just lose night communication rather than being told by the mod)
huh, so.....Vote Person. i doubt taht a non confirmed mason pair could exist in this game, but a cult could (assuming the game was fairly simple otherwise.)

I doubt the existence of a cult in this game.
First of all, I don't see how a cult would fit in a fairly basic game, but more importantly they make no sense, as far as I can see, flavourwise.
That Person doesn't know his full win condition, at least not with 100% certainty, does sound very odd.

Well, Chainsaw's votes were on Person, TLK and J-ville. So everyone can take that for what it's worth.
I'm curious as to why Squiggles wants to kill Buttercup. There were no reasons give for that statement.
@Pineapple: I was suspicious of J-ville because there was no comment on alignment and there was a chance he could me a mason and still be scum. Person now says J-ville is 100% town, but J-ville isn't sure about Person. Even if Person does come out with what he did last night, what does that do exactly to prove alignment?
huh, so.....Vote Person. i doubt taht a non confirmed mason pair could exist in this game, but a cult could (assuming the game was fairly simple otherwise.)
A cult? Someone lures "The Husband" away and your first thought is a cult? Why do I get the feeling this is a suggestion to cause the town to run in circles and try to out more claims?
So my current feelings are: I'll buy J-ville's mason claim, but I can't shake the scum feeling I have about him. Person's tippy-toeing around the subject of where he was last night, I can understand flavor-wise, but it's doing nothing game-wise but making him look scummy. Neither of the mason pair are in the clear for me. I think it's possible either could be scum, and likely one is.

Well, I believe what Person is saying, and this whole situation would seem to make him more likely a townie in my eyes. It does not make sense for scum to "leave the room" in such a way as to cause a PM from fade to his Mason partner who otherwise has no Night choices.
I only have one tiny qualification which I don't think is relevant right now. But I am almost entirely sure that Person was not doing anything Mafia-ish last Night.
Wow....cant believe i forgot the flavor reasons...(though i didnt remember that person claimed "the husband", though even if he didnt it would make a lot of sense), but i dont know....
Still confused how it relates to the game, and how person has an alt win condition (or something...).....

Last night I was forced to leave my room for an hour to do something not related to the game.
I would rather not elaborate, but I can give details if absolutely necessary.
As for everyone else, you know what I know, so make your own decisions.
If it's not related to the game, then why would you rather not give details about it?

Person - 1 (Johnsonville)
A reminder to all: Please be careful about posting with your regular accounts. Thank you.
Had this person been me, he was saying that it was Fade who sent PMs, not me. I didn't send PMs (outside of normal masonry).
My gut tells me to pursue stricken today, so Im going to reread and see if I can find anythign substantial to back it up.
I have no reason to expect that player to be scum, and reason to expect that player to be town(as we were together for part of the night), but I do not know either way for sure.
I also believe the person who lured me from my room did not have a choice in the matter, but that it was an inevitable part of the game.
Because of this event, PMs were sent to me, JVille(He had to find out somehow), and I would assume the other party.
I would rather not say exactly what happened, because although I do not know for sure, I have reason to believe that part of my win requirement is for JVille not to be finding out exactly what happened.
bull****!
errr what i mean is that well bull****.
damn its hard to explain. How bout this.....this is a simple game here....nothing too complex in role issues. The special part of it is the blind techiness, (which you've blwon incidentally).
the odds that youre win req could be like that is unlikely as per hell, unless you're perhaps a cultist maybe? and the odds of taht are increasing. it would make sense for a mason to realize something was wrong (tho usually they just lose night communication rather than being told by the mod)
huh, so.....Vote Person. i doubt taht a non confirmed mason pair could exist in this game, but a cult could (assuming the game was fairly simple otherwise.)
If the mafia had just claimed amongst the neutrals, *sigh*.
First of all, I don't see how a cult would fit in a fairly basic game, but more importantly they make no sense, as far as I can see, flavourwise.
That Person doesn't know his full win condition, at least not with 100% certainty, does sound very odd.

I'm curious as to why Squiggles wants to kill Buttercup. There were no reasons give for that statement.
@Pineapple: I was suspicious of J-ville because there was no comment on alignment and there was a chance he could me a mason and still be scum. Person now says J-ville is 100% town, but J-ville isn't sure about Person. Even if Person does come out with what he did last night, what does that do exactly to prove alignment?
Where did you get 'alternate' win condition from? Person said he believed it was 'part' of his win condition
A cult? Someone lures "The Husband" away and your first thought is a cult? Why do I get the feeling this is a suggestion to cause the town to run in circles and try to out more claims?
So my current feelings are: I'll buy J-ville's mason claim, but I can't shake the scum feeling I have about him. Person's tippy-toeing around the subject of where he was last night, I can understand flavor-wise, but it's doing nothing game-wise but making him look scummy. Neither of the mason pair are in the clear for me. I think it's possible either could be scum, and likely one is.
Come sail away with me
Come sail away, come sail away
Come sail away with me
I only have one tiny qualification which I don't think is relevant right now. But I am almost entirely sure that Person was not doing anything Mafia-ish last Night.
Still confused how it relates to the game, and how person has an alt win condition (or something...).....
(This game needs to be more active.
If the mafia had just claimed amongst the neutrals, *sigh*.
I don't have two mason partners, I have one mason partner and another person who's identity I know, but cannot communicate with.
Maybe siblings?
