NOTW XXXIX: Impending Retribution Game Thread

Let's give him some time to explain himself then. There's plenty of pressure votes here. We might be able to get him to do a full role reveal to one of us.

There isn't much pressure on him right now, CCRunner is leading the lynch tally. I haven't even placed my vote yet. And why are you coming to his aid so quickly?

Darth Caesar killed someone; I don't know who or why. I killed Zack because he attacked me during an interrogation. I'd like to know who Camikaze has killed and why.

More pressure on Camikaze is required

Perhaps Darth Caesar is the one who killed Askthepizzaguy? That's been the only kill that really stood out as different correct?

(Couple things OOC:

1. My PM box is now open again for anyone who was trying to contact me.

2. Bad news -- the nuclear launch key was stolen.)

*facepalm*

I’m going to go with Camikaze here as well. Seems to me that Zack tried to kill rhawn because he knew that rhawn might be interrogating a fellow rogue last night. We may have found that rogue.

As for the pistol, rhawn can have it as spoils for his kill. He can either use it, or see fit to give it to someone he trusts.

While I'd like to have the pistol in case the rogues and/or saboteurs attack me to get the bird under their command and escape on it while they still have a chance to make it -especially if the nuclear launch key is stolen, saboteurs might blow up the reactor and escape- I feel that rhawn could handle it safely.

Cthulhu's better than a kraken, eh?

Ekolite said:

I am happy to take the pistol and lock it away in the armoury. We need to reduce the amount of weapons kicking around if you ask me. As for who to put in the brig, I have heard bad things about CCRunner.

Well, let's read this again, shall we?
Ignoring me again, Ekolite? Asking for items while ignoring everything else and quietly sending someone to die?

Unknown somebody blowing up Nictel, possibly with sprig's bomb, stands out too doesn't it? That's possible on Darth Caesar but doesn't make much sense the quiet, resevered (inactive) officer attacked the recruit for no reason. And he didn't have a weapon it seems.

Except the nuclear launch key would go with the missile systems in the CIC, but yes, we're still trying to keep rogues away. Such a "hypothetical" saboteur would want the Reactor Override Codes for that...

I'll agree we should probably execute Camikaze though or at least he needs more votes then to got that way, if he's a killer we're ending more threats.

Yes, because clearly somebody getting a single item, or even two items to destroy the whole ship would be balanced.

Yeah, I'm going to have to say that Camikaze needs swift justice.

It'd be a bit imbalanced, but there was a Nuclear launch key 'B' if you didn't notice. Where's Key 'A'? Two keys plus codes might permanently disable us and strand us in the middle of nowhere…

Laconic bandwaggoning indeed, almost to Ekolite levels.

It's not exactly the same type of bandwagoning when you have someone who has a scan and is credited with the kill on Zack.

But considering how the last scan went off I'll see what Duke B has to say about CCRunner (his previous post said he has more details coming) and if Camikaze says anything useful

I was going to lay some info down, but there were two positive scan results last night, so there are bigger fish to fry.

Yes, but it's a quick post saying nothing else than 'hey, let's vote this person who's currently being bandwaggoned'. Amn't I right?

…then what?

Riiight… info has to be posted when you have it, so that the town has time to think of it, instead of just posting it ten minutes from update time. What if you're killed? Speak up!

Two? I was only aware of rhawn scanning Camikaze as a killer. Is there some other scan result we haven't been told about?

Yes, Mr. choxorn, through ancient pirate lore we can determine if someone will be tasty or not to the Kraken. Also I've been scanned Innocent.

Also, again, the nuclear launch keys don't go with the Reactor. And no, I don't expect someone could blow up the whole ship by messing with the Reactor, such technology is designed with safeguards after all and doesn't work that way. Still cause a whole lot of damage certainly. As for the keys, presumably the rogues needed to repair the missile systems, get access to the CIC, and get all the keys to try to launch a missile. Not exactly a task the rest of the crew would let them get away with but we have to be vigilant.

Sorry for the double post, but after noticing Takhisis's questions about Ekolite being ignored, I decided to go look at his posts.



So, he's been lurking heavily. He's only ever voted items to himself, and has only voted to join bandwagons. He really wants those guns, for some reason. His support vote for Nictel seems a bit unscummy, but it also could be something a Rogue would do to appear innocent.

I think that there's a good chance he's a Rogue, although there's virtually no chance he's a Saboteur.

Ekolite seems to have an actual ability and job that all add up with his goal of retrieving the stolen guns. So in other words, he's partly accounted for at night and not any particular reason to think he's causing trouble. As I also had in my looking through old records the other day (a lot of Frozen and CCRunner) Ekolite brought the evidence that Frozen had a gun to Winston (and maybe Secura?) But Winston and Secura are both dead and that lead on Frozen having a gun for no reason got accidentally forgotten at the time.

A couple of votes may have been iffy but I wouldn't hold that against him. We also know where all the Assault rifles are so I'm not sure what else he can do, I might encourage him to check over inactive crew looking for illicit weaponry. Not at all a priority, in other words, I'd rather make sure a bunch of other folks are really Innocent than worry about Ekolite.

We old people have trouble remembering stuff and making connections, so let me sum up what I understood and please tell me where I'm wrong.

-Last night, CCrunner, Camikaze and Earthling were in the Brig.
-During the night there was one saboteur action (galley), five repair actions and no kills.
-Rhawn interrogated Camikaze and he's a killer ?
-Zack attacked Rhawn but Rhawn killed the rogue in self defence.
-Either zack attacked him with his silenced pistol OR with the officer's sword bestowed by his rank ability (but there's no sign of said sword).
-Zack had a monkey wrench (+1 to repairs), he gave it to me during day 7, totally out of the blue, apparently on orders from someone else. This was the first and only time we had any contact.
- Since I had no use of it I passed it along to someone I trust at the end of day 7.

From this, if my understanding is correct, at least one of the guys in the brig last night is either rogue/saboteur (I'd say rogue because of the lack of direct kills).
People that were in contact with Zack (the one that promoted him, and the one that managed the item transfer) are getting black marks in my book. Of course they could have been manipulated... But the suspicion is there.
And finally, where is our Captain when we desperately need him the most ? And by the way, people getting caught up by real life issues and going AWOL may also explain the lack of kills... Just saying.

Why hello boys. I may need a volunteer for, ahem, dangerous duty tonight. See, there's supposed to be a claymore planted in one of the damaged rooms, and just at this moment I don't know if it's still active. Someone with nothing better to do tonight want to go blow it up for me, if needed?

I'm taking volunteers in my quarters. *cough*
