NOTW XLIII - The Walkingdead!

[Visorslash]

verarde is clean. so that's not a good vote.

anyways, there was some sort of "crime" committed by presumably the agents of the company, seeing as the only thing that has done anything yet it autolycus's death.

The crime did exist, of some sort, if my detective role PM would have been worth anything.

But, tis also true that early on in the game like no one talked similar to me except classical hero, who is the daryl paine character. No idea if he's scum or not, but it's not really some major victory condition as best I can tell. And also true I wanted my cache but that it didn't provide game changing info.

so, since a random person (britney) had something funky, some other random person out there will be similar. Otherwise we're just waiting around the zombies as best as I can tell.

I'd rather have the most people alive for when we go to the research center (if we decide to eventually), since we surely have maybe 5 or so guns rolling around? That seems like good protection for me. Visorslash, having night actions seems relatively worthless as a defense. Let me
vote mat93.

Also, what did fuel do in the first place?

Night actions and a scan. Chainsaw - fuel. Unless someone has any other ideas?

It's been mentioned at least a dozen times. For another one, given that you're one of the people invoking Bad Player's scan as the only evidence of your innocence, Bad Player clearly said he scanned me innocent too, for whatever that is worth.

BP said himself his scan was never an innocence or guilt scan, perhaps even in the thread. If anyone wants to go back and find the relevant post, it'd be appreciated, but I don't have the time to. However, in Earthling's defense, he does know what the vanilla role PM entails (I think. He only confirmed it once choxorn stated what was in his vanilla role PM after being pressured), and BP's scan of him did suggest he was a survivor and nothing more (ie, vanilla). Despite our differences, I don't think Earthling is the best lynch. That said, Verarde and classical aren't either.

If we're really struggling that bad for a viable lynch (I personally have nothing), let choxorn use his pills on himself. At least let me clear that up so I can put that thought process to rest.

[Earthling]

Someone ending up lynched with just 2 or 3 votes today is also terrible and gives the town little information. Choxorn probably wouldn't have the forewarning to even attempt his ability with a vote count like that, and we make no progress while taking the obvious risk of more night kills. I think Mat, Verarde, choxorn are all poor candidates for random pressure votes too but I'll unvote Visorslash for now.

johnhughthom is not a bad choice; not great, but not the worst and doable.

johnhughthom wasn't even scanned by Bad Player, we know that much, and in fact according to both BP and Backwards Logic he was already enough of an unknown and a suspect a couple days ago and I don't see why that would have changed. Bad Player actually said he intended to scan him soon and jht was supposedly going to talk to him about his role and explain what he's been doing; that's what jht also said in thread. Except as we know BP was killed before that happened, and there's no other evidence in jht's favor. If jht had a gun or was involved in the recent 2-3 killings then he's definitely a good suspect because he's in a very convenient spot for these actions being a cover up in his favor.

 

[choxorn]

Vote Tally:

Earthling: 3 (classical hero, johnhughthom, Mat93)
Verarde: 2 (BSmith, choxorn)
johnhughthom: 1 (Earthling)
Mat93: 1 (Kennigit)
choxorn: 1 (Backwards Logic)
classical hero: 1 (mayor)
Abstain: 1 (Buddhafish)

 

[Mat93]

BP said himself his scan was never an innocence or guilt scan, perhaps even in the thread.

That is correct, it was in the thread, he said something along the lines of it only giving results like anti zombie, strongly pro zombie, etc.


unvote; vote:abstain

I don't see a clear benefit to lynching anyone right now. I don't think there even is any zombies currently in the group, maybe a couple of people are wanting there to be. Research centre to me seems a bad choice for the next move, as it's highly likely to have a bad side-effect, as per DaveShacks(?) post when he was dead (saying that it might be the end of us all), but being non zombie and non agent suggests he wouldn't know. Add the fact that it's unlikely to be that simple of going there and then discovering a cure and having the entire game infection free, I would certainly expect some kind of difficulty that we won't be prepared for, because we can't be.

I am in favour of staying here another day if we don't get the radio equipment working (next day suggestion).

 

[johnhughthom]

Here is what I actually said:

I've struggled to catch up with the game after not being able to log in to CFC for ages, I did let Bad Player know about my role, and what I have (or more pertinently haven't) been up to each night. Those of you who have played a decent number of games with me before will know I wouldn't lurk so blatantly as scum, nor would I use such out of game excuses for not posting much.

Bad Player knows my ability, I am happy to use it as he directs.

I had already told BP about my role and activities, not what Earthling claims I said. BP did not dispute this, Earthing's idea that I had BP killed so I didn't have to claim to him falls flat.

 

[choxorn]

So, 2 votes for some people, 1 vote for some other people...

Sigh, there are no good options. Backwards, you wanted to see if I can actually stop a lynch, right? Well, I've sent in an order to do exactly that, because we don't seem to have any better option than not lynching anyone right now. I'll revoke the order if we can actually find a good lynch target that gets more than 2 or 3 votes, but if the lynch is going to be a tie between Earthling and some lurker and they both have 2 votes, I'm blocking it.

 

[Earthling]

johnhughthom classical_hero remains a good default lynch. At worst, he is neutral and his only goal appears to be to go off into zombie territory at this point, which would get more townies killed and is something we don't need, at best he actually is a scum. He is likely lying about his goals, what information he got in the papers he read (since he claims that is what is telling him to go to the Research Center) or both. No one else has any reason to keep him alive like we want to keep townies alive either.

I would not be surprised if two more townies are killed tonight, or even if Backwards Logic himself is innocent he could easily be killed because he simply gave guns to scum instead of townies and then we won't know anything about who the scum are between about six people.

Anyone who is actually town should not commit any more nightkills at all tonight, we need a day to wait for reveals, info like the radio station, and sort some things out.

 

[Backwards Logic]

The information in the papers he's read is true: Papers state there's the possibility for a cure at the research center. I've read them myself. He's not lying about it.

 

[Visorslash]

Earthling: 2 (classical hero, johnhughthom)
Verarde: 2 (BSmith, choxorn)
Mat93: 1 (Kennigit)
choxorn: 1 (Backwards Logic)
classical hero: 2 (mayor, Earthling)
Abstain: 1 (Buddhafish, Mat93)

Earthling doesn't seem to get it...

 

[Visorslash]

I'm not really happy with a classical lynch. I'm alright with an Earthling or Mat93 lynch I suppose, but I'm fine with no lynching as well.

Vote: Mat93

[choxorn]

So... I could create a 4-way tie, lynch one of Earthling, Mat, and classical, none of whom seem particularly scummy, or just use the pills to stop the lynch.

Option 3 still seems like the best one.

Day Fourteen​

As the people had voted and decided hat classical_hero, Verarde, Earthling and Mat93 would have their fates determined at random, an old man stepped forward from among the crowd and cried 'No infraction without postcount representation' 'No lynch without reason!' And then went on about various topics until he had convinced everyone else to back off.
There was no lynch!
The party decided to stay and investigate the radio station while awarding Backwards logic his usual Coffee.

Night Fourteen​

The party fiddled around aimlessly with the equipment and managed to make the automated Distress Signal be broadcast, so they could expect supply Drops to happen in the island. However, without Tools and Spare Parts they wouldn't be able to change the messages broadcast.
The corpse of BSmith was found in the Station.

Spoiler :

He was the Survivor Mike Rush, the city's best and most handsome Auto mechanic!

His loaded Rifle was put up on auction.
The party found nothing much further in the Radio Station but for a cup of Coffee.
