A Game of Thrones (Day 4)

[AceArtemis]

Boy oh boy, it's Skim-City here tonight, although Mr Walrus' guesses are pretty close.
Simon did indeed investigate me, and I know that because I was told he did. BTW pmc, you're starting to dig a hole here.

Pmc is just asking questions to generate more information for the town. When we don't have much to go on, we have to do something, right? See, now we won't be left wondering all game about the connection between you and Simon.

Could you please quote what it is that I've missed, or "Skimmed". Investigate makes much more sense I understand now, I would say why didn't you tell me that earlier but apparently you did.

Still a few questinos remain:

1. Why did you reveal that he was a cop in the first place?
2. Why did you claim bulletproof?

1) Answered this already. Keeps him on his toes and the mafia won't target him, not while we probably have a doc still in the running.
2) AND this. Selfish reasons.

Yes, but answering questions like that is a double-edged sword, it can go either way. It almost did.

1. Keeps him on his toes, wtf mate? All you did was point him out that helps M- A- F- I -A. Even if they don't target him now knowledge is power, if you try to argue against it then why don't we just mass claim all the time? To keep mafia in the dark.

2. Selfish reasons, so your now admitting your not really bulletproof and were just lying for your own purposes? If you really are bulletproof then there is no point in saying so as you can't be killed anyway.

And where is everyone else?

[Minister Masket]

Oh, so I'm saying I'm not bulletproof now?
Right, mafia members, you can have another shot at me during Night 5! Please, don't hesistate!

[The Fuzzy Pengui]

Wait sheep, so now I'm Eddard? It seems like you have something against this Eddard guy and you are just claiming that you're investigating individuals until you actually find Eddard. What is your role, and why would you want this guy found so badly?

As for the pmc, MM, SV thing...I'm not 100% certain exactly what's going on...even after reading through all your comments. From what I can tell...pmc, you're saying MM is bad, or at least that SV may be an accomplice? Can the mafia be bulletproof? The comment sounded somewhat "sarcastic" or "joking" to me when it was made. Pmc seems like he is going after both of you (MM and SV), but then again you are the other two players that have been really active so he's might just be questioning you guys because of that. Either way, it seems that either Pmc or SV probably aren't good people from what I've deducted. Have I missed anything?

[Simon Viavant]

I am third party, I just need to survive to the end.

I can investigate people.

I investigated MM and he can't vote, but he's also bulletproof, and somehow he found out I investigated him, I'm not entirely sure.

I'm not related to MM in any way

And I'm declaring neutrality right now, which is why I made the claim, to explain why I'm lurking and not diligently trying to root out the mafia in this thread like everyone else is.

PMC, we're obviously scum, and yet we gave reasons for the scum to not kill us?
Why would we do that?

Yeah, if you look back a couple pages I got a bit ticked at MM for hinting at my investigating abilities as it would make me a target, and he assured me mafia wouldn't go after me, so I'm just coming out with that now. I guess you could say I did the town a favor by confirming that MM is town, but I also confirmed his bulletproofedness, so I'm not favoring either side.

In any case, I'm declaring neutrality.

[The Fuzzy Pengui]

If MM is bulletproof and town, does that mean he can't die? Meaning that the town will win no matter what? Seems like an odd twist to a mafia game...I like it, but seems odd (unless I'm not understanding "bulletproof").

MM can still be lynched, just not night-killed.

Idk, I think my investigation is broken. All I know is that I have the power to investigate and I keep getting Eddard.

Try somebody else tonight and see if you get the same thing? I don't know..just seems weird that the investigation powers aren't working right (could there be a reflection thing? I think something like that happened in another mafia game I'm in where the person they tried to kill was reflected onto someone else. Could the same happen if someone reflected the investigator to a particular person?).

Ahh....ok.

[pmchugh]

First off I would like to say I do not suspect either MM or SV of being scum, I'm just confused by their actions, espicially MM.

Oh, so I'm saying I'm not bulletproof now?
Right, mafia members, you can have another shot at me during Night 5! Please, don't hesistate!

You said you claimed bulletproof for "selfish" reasons what might these be? Claiming bulletproof disadvantages you as now no-one will night kill you meaning they wont fall into that trap, unless your not actually bulletproof and then claiming would give you an advantage.

And you still have given no satisfactory answer to why you outed a cop, even if he is thrid party.

And SV care to give us your other 2 nights investigations?

[Minister Masket]

I can think of plenty of reasons to remove me from the game. Usually I bugger things up around this point.
It's more preferable to rub their failure in their face than keep it secret. Selfish yes, but oh so satisfying.

Did no-one read this post?

pmc, the mafia tried to off me last night. It didn't work. Do you really think they'd be dumb enough to try it again? I lose nothing by revealing myself.
BTW, I sorta hinted at Simon's role because he had the nerve to investigate me when I clearly have no evil intentions. I doubt he was expecting me to know he did it.

What about SK's or other factions, there was a day kill yesterday what about that? It was pointless its seems you don't care if you win or lose just as long as you get to spill your secrets.

Anyway it doesn't matter we can't undo it now.

So we must go forward, so I will repeat:

Simon have you any other investigation results?

[AceArtemis]

Simon have you any other investigation results?

He probably does, but he's not going to tell us because he is going to be as useless as possible to be "neutral".

[The Fuzzy Pengui]

I am The Mighty Drunken King.

pmchung - Eddard Stark
animorpherv1 - Self due to mirrors
The Fuzzy Pengui - Eddard Stark (Wait what?)

Those are the three people he's investigated. It's not night for yet, so he only has three as of yet. Interesting to know if animorph would have been Eddard as well if there weren't any mirrors.

I was talking about simon variant not sheep.

[Simon Viavant]

Exactly.

Not that it'd really help, I just have one other and he's town.

Fair enough as long as you don't let that person get lynched if they are close.

And how often do you get an action? Is it every second day? Or were you blocked one night?

[Simon Viavant]

I was away from a computer for a night.

[pmchugh]

I was away from a computer for a night.

Wow the only post in the last 24 hours. Nate killed this game by going away for so long now no-one is here.

[Strider24]

Hmmmm.... maybe unless prods are all sent out and people post without threating about being called scum for not being helpful. From what I have read the past few pages it is all accusations flying everywhere and alot of misunderstanding. I must say myself MM seems suspicious even though what he has said has kind of explained his actions and somewhat cleared him of being mafia. But still I just can't help shake the feeling he will not be helpful to the town and if he isn't mafia will just cause mischief.

This has been one very long game and it does look as if the game is dead unless Nate can do something to revive it.

[captainwalrus]

The problem is, we have no leads to follow. It is like day one but people are tired of it.

[Suspect101]

Ok lets try and move this onme forward.

unvote vote Ani he is not playing nor is he even part of the site any more. He has not posted in close to/over a month and will not be missed. There are at least 3 or 4 of these in this game. Replacing takes forever, then it leads to the same problem. People quit. Lets try and move this game forward, maybe there are enough of us active players to do so.

[gimpyThewonder]

frankly its hard to take this game seriously when the mod is MIA. I hate to be a deadbeater but I'm gonna till the mod comes back.

I do want to say 1 thing though. SV how is it possible you were away for an entire night, they've all lasted more than a week?
