Mini-NOTW IX: Carnival House

[Catharsis]

{OOC: oh yeah, there's a contradiction in the rules that I've been meaning to ask about, along those lines:

4. Abilities and Night Actions.

Not everyone has abilities, and those that do tend to relate to items. Items are the main source of night actions. Unless it says otherwise all items and abilities can be used an unlimited number of times and are performed at night. Only one night action may be used per night per player, but there are certain actions which act as exceptions. Agents may make their kill and use a night action on the same night. There are no ''perfect'' prophets, as in there is no character or item with the ability to reveal whether someone is innocent or an agent. Every time a kill is made, the killer (team regardless) will gain 1 strength unless stated otherwise. If a player attempts to kill another player their strength must be equal or higher to their target. If it is lower the kill will fail and nothing will happen.

7. Strength:

In this game, for a number of reasons strength is particularly important. Especially individual strength. I would suggest to all the housemates to attempt to gather as much individual strength as possible. Strength can be increased by certain items. For the Agents to win, they must obtain a higher strength then the ''Innocent'' team by or before day 10. Strength also plays a key role in survival. In order for a character to successfully kill another one, they must have equal or greater strength then their target. If they have lower strength, there is a chance that the kill will still be successful, but it will most likely fail and nothing will happen. Every time a player, innocent or agent, successfully makes a kill, they gain one point of strength. In order to use hand-held weapons which provide strength, the player must have a base strength equal or greater to the strength provided. A housemate cannot own more then three items at any one time.

Which one of these (the bolded parts) is correct?}

 

[Pinman]

I think you may have done it, princess.

If its one of us, the kill succeeds. If its the house, the kill may fail.

However, if it is the house, the kill cannot always fail or that would break the game.

 

[Ekolite]

Neither . If the nominated player is of higher strength they will not be killed, and instead the player with the next most votes will be targetted. If this player is too strong then the next player is chosen and so on.

 

[Pinman]

Neither . If the nominated player is of higher strength they will not be killed, and instead the player with the next most votes will be targetted. If this player is too strong then the next player is chosen and so on.

Well, thats another way to keep the game workable.

But yah, I rest my case.

 

[choxorn]

That's not how it worked night one.

 

[Catharsis]

but... but i survived a nominashun. an if wat davina sez is true den loads of uvver peeps did 2, becoz no1 died on mornin 2.

{EDIT: crosspost with Deady McGhee}

 

[Autolycus]

Ok, so given this, we need to try to figure out who has the most strength and if the house can beat them. If the house can't, then unanimity gives us strength.

 

[remake20]

Ah crap! My lurking tactic didn't work.

 

[classical_hero]

This?

That is for the OP, since electric is still on the list and you are not.

 

[Krill]

Ah, thanks for that you aren't a bastard then.

 

[Ekolite]

Thanks for that CH. I've updated it now.

 

[Pinman]

I would like to formally buy the Ticket to Freedom.

 

[Renata]

Then please vote me the knife.

 

[Pinman]

I see no reason not to award Renata the knife.

 

[Autolycus]

Let Renata have the knife

 

[landlubber]

Alright, then, Knife to Renata.

Night 6 in the Carnival House

The Housemates spent a large part of the day playing cards and lying about the place, until out of bored and frustration, Perpentach sent a crateload of alcohol into the House. Drinking games and drunken shenanigans between the princess and the cultist truly made the House entertainment fit for a King.

The Farmer, who was widely believed to be almost eerily quiet, had been found dead after being nominated the previous night. How he had actually come to die was a matter of some debate, and many people had aired their theories of late. Whether they had discovered the secret of the House or not, was not to be known.

The Farmer's prize butterknife was up for the vote today, both the Cultist and the Toymaker showed early interest in the item, but in the evening a flurry of votes for the Painter won her the knife.

The most notable event of the day was Pinman's purchase of the Ticket to Freedom. This will make him immune from Nominations while in his possession.

The voting for the knife was as follows:

Spoiler :

Krill - Krill
Renata - Renata
Pinman - Renata
Autolycus - Renata
Landlubber - Renata

Get your nominations in now! Please note that you may not nominate Pinman. Night will continue for approximately 24 hours from now.

{OOC: you mean the ticket to freedom was actually a ticket to freedom? Rats. I had big money on it just blowing up in his face and killing him...

"protects you from Nomination"

"strength discounted for the purposes of Innocent/Agent overwhelmitude"

Come on now, Balseraphs, I'm disappointed in you. }

 

[Seon]

It probably is a ticket to freedom- freedom to decide which way to die once this is over

 

[Ekolite]

Oi! Get back to bed! Don't make me come up there!

By the way Zack is replacing Hell_hound as the healer.
