I'm not sure what's going to happen.... the voices tell me many things, but they are quiet right now. It is peacefull.

Yes. I had to do some things though outside of the game :P

Alright, had 2 interesting things happen to me during the night. One I'm very happy about (I think, unless Z is messing with me), that means I can finally claim and feel like a normal player. And the other is...well, I can't keep that secret when I use it.

First off, my caution. Well, it was tied to my role, which means that I had a major liability that required me to play overly cautious....ESPECIALLY once we lost a bunch of players due to modkill.

I'm trying to figure out how to read Ghost's lynch. I guess the main question is, do we proceed with the idea that the Mafia knew of Ghost being tied to Quad in a manner that would get them lynched? Or did they not know?

If they knew, maybe looking into people who saw Ghost as a townie? In such a situation I'd want to boost up a potential chink in the armor like that. Maybe not being too obvious, but having her on the town side of my lists would be something to look into.

And with 4 of us, and 2 of them, we should be at Mislynch and Lose. Which doesn't make me feel all that comfortable.

There's no reason to say that he's a confirmed town at this point, only that he's confirmed for a post restriction.

I'm baffled as to why I'm still alive. Surely killing an investigative role would be a better choice than a going after SPF. Well, at least GhostQlyph's unfortunate lynch has confirmed to me that I am a regular cop, and not a naive cop as I first supposed.

Having noted this, I see no reason why I should not share my night action: I investigated TwilightBard and found him to be town.

Twilightbard: Before sharing the two interesting things that have happened to you over the course of night 2, would you be willing to share what EnsembleofShadows PMed you on day 2?

Speaking of which, after attempting to contact EnsembleofShadows yesterday, we were able to hold a seance. Does anyone think that such an action would be helpful this early in the day?

This is quite interesting, but I do have a rebuttal.

I should have caught this sooner, but we have a mod confirmed cop. Makes your claim rather interesting now.

I don't mind sharing it at all to be honest, I'm just trying to figure out what it means...or if it's just completely messing with me.

take a look in the pool and what do you see
in the dark depths their faces beckoning me
cant you see them its plain for all to see
they were there oh i know you dont believe me

Are you serious? This claim after one cop already died?

Good point, I somehow missed this. So there were 2 cops, is this usual? seems like town in that case is overpowered (not that I am complaining, though). Also, was not he Bastian - Naive Cop? If so he had what I understand now to be a negative role, all he can do is confuse matters more as he will always get the same result - the target is town.

Reminds me about those oracle from Delphi prophecies - you can read whatever you want into it... But as far as I understand, we have missed something very obvious.

wild though from the far left of the field - what if there are no scum players and the mod is the only scum now. This fits with not trusting him, number of cum increasing (he became scum after we killed him) and the speech about him being our god and created us, so he is only playing with us and killing us off one by one (also kind of fit with all the mod kills...). Not sure if this fits in with the game structure, but I got [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten_Little_Indians_(1965_film)]10 Little Indians[/url] vibes now.

Not usual at all. It is something you can basically rule out in any game.

@CSPVG; What exactly led you to try to confirm yourself as real cop instead of naive one? The fact you got 2 results?
Do you realise real cop claim invalidates your N1 action as there is no way you would be able to target Untargetable player with real ability?

I posted that early this morning, so it had more to do with seven-a.m-reasoning than actual evidence. The reasoning was simple, as follows: I got one correct read, therefore I am correct. Which, as I now acknowledge, is fallacious. Naive policemen, by their very nature, could investigate anything and find it town.

I think I keep vacillating like this, and believing myself to be an actual policemen, because so many other facets of this game are confusing. I'd like just one substantial fact to cling to.

That is rather odd, Twilight. That rhyme makes me feel as if we've missed something in flavour text. Perhaps I should go back and have a look.

I think the nature of GhosyQlyph's role may have been to redirect,
and those that targeted her would instead make QuadrAlian the subject.
I do agree, though, that having two pro-town cops in a game is far-fetched,
and I think the truth in this instance might be getting a little stretched...

It makes me wonder if we missed something...and further makes me think it's a misdirection. I'm not going to read a lot into it right now. It's the beginning of Still Life by Iron Maiden, since I decided to toss it through Google <.<.

@CSPVG: When you claimd to be a naive cop earlier, what gave you the clue that you were naive? Was it clearly written out? Something's starting to bother me here...

Well, there's a big issue with the mod being the only scum. We already lynched him Day 1. It would be really odd for him having a second life. I'm a little suspicious here when we can't even be sure who is writing Ensemble or if said person is even involved in the game at all. Besides, the name, if it's connected to the game, suggests a group...so I'm not going to go wild with speculation there.

I made my claim in posts 443. As I said in that post, there were a few things that made me suspect I was a naive cop. To repeat them here:

1) Ghost's claim made me suspect, as I'd obviously investigated him/ her on the first night( this made me deeply suspicious of Ghost, until post 449, as after he/ she explained how their night action worked, then it sounded like kind of a joke role).

2) My role PM is odd in that it is written in verse form. It refers to Constable Bastion, a character in Thorbjorn Egner's When the Robbers Came to Cardamom Town. In said book, Constable Bastion is concerned with making people happy. As such, my role PM is filled with injunctions to be nice, and to treat people well. The children's book nature of my role PM suggests to me that I may not necessarily be the sanest of policemen.

3) I also noted flub's death in my original claim post. As he was as Tony Hill- Town Cop( which, after a bit of googling, turns out to be a fictional character, created by Scottish crime writer Val McDermid), I thought that two sane town cops would be a bit unlikely.*

When I vacillated back to thinking I was an ordinary cop, it was because( as I have explained) I made a fallacious assumption. I got one right read, and then assumed I must be a normal cop. Just because Ghost happened to be town, does not mean that I am not a naive cop.

Coda: Having read up a bit about Tony Hill on Wikipedia, though the character of Tony Hill may have psychological and emotional problems, he is at least a seemingly competent policeman.

Too quiet again. I am imagining ourselves sitting in our (opened) rooms, watching the walls, trying to guess who is scum and who isn't. We should be probably also watching the doors to our cells, but not sure how many of us do.

Biggest ping I have atm is the fact that we had 2 cops, which does seem quite wrong to me as well. Other than that, not much to go on. Time permitting, I'll have to look at the votes of the 3 lynches we had so far.

Votecount!

There are no votes.
