More messages!

Sender says Legato Endless said aric-kale and Tanar Aerdoth are Mooneys.

The Fiery Tower scries as Mooney Recruiter and Lex scries as Town Seer.

So, is Lex actually a Town seer, since this was validated?

[Lex-Kat]

Lex being a multivoter... does this mean she has increased voting power or can vote for multiple different people at the same time or what?

No. I wouldn't trust anything Internet Flea says. I think people were sending in lies.

[Count Dingdong]

Alrighty. I actually have all actions in on time!

Night is now over.

A narration will come in a while, once I write it up. No one can change their decisions after this point, as you have had your full 24 hours. I'm just doing this so no last-minute changes cause a full re-write.

Night 6

*DING-DONG*
"Oh, hello! Welcome, I'm Lawrence-"
"Yes, hello, hello! I do know who you are, fine sir."
"Right, of course. There's the sign outside."
"...yes, that's it, yes. Ah, you might want to know, I'm here for your services."
"A cust-? Ah, I mean... well, not that I'm flattered that you think so highly of me, but- I'm not the best in town anymore."
"Ah, but I trust you to stay quiet. And not ask... the wrong people. He... well, let's just say I don't know his motives. Or why he arrived in the first place."
"So. What is it you wanted?"
"There's... a little something I'm missing."
-------------------------
"Hello? I'm pretty sure, yes. I'm pretty sure this place is where I want to be."
"Ah, are you back-? No? Hello! Hello! Uh... you wouldn't also happen to be looking for Lawrence Dean?"
"Good! Yes! Thank you! For a second there, I was scared I was lost."
The man pauses for a moment in thought.
"Wait, I am at the right place, right? Lawrence Dean?"
"Oh, yes! Terribly sorry. I was a bit- startled. It's been an unusually busy night, you see."
"Good. This town could have you going in circles. Well, not you I assume, but me? Hah! And I should know better by now!"
"Right. Uh... why did you say you were here? And... who were you, again?"
"Oh, terribly sorry, where's my manners. My card, my card. Drat, it's in my other pocket. Ah, yes. I'm here because there's no one else to ask. My other client went... missing."
*sigh* "Come in, come in. I think I know some of your story already. And the rest is probably long. It seems I won't get much work done tonight..."
"Much obliged. You wouldn't happen to have a... map, would you?"
-------------------------
Later that night, one man fiddles with the lock on a door in his cellar.
*cough* "Pardon me, but what are you doing? And normally I'm the one being asked that?"
The man shrieks and pushes open the door, falling through.
"That voice! I know- I know you! Stay- stay away!"
"Now, that's not nice. You know, I was planning to help you with that door. What'd'you keep inside, anyway?"
"Stay away! I'm warning you!"
"Ah, no matter. You know... I just don't understand paper money. Because paper... well, it rips, it gets wet. It... burns. Ahah, ironic, isn't it?"
"What do you- No!"
The man reaches below his coats and pulls out a flamethrower.
"Ah, I'm been waiting for a good time to use this. You know, if I went that way, I'd say you were pretty... hot."
"Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!"
*SLAM*
"Definitely fireproof. The door doesn't even feel hot!"
Suddenly, another man rushes in.
"Hey! Man! You'd better get out of here quick, I hear there's some... one..."
He pauses to take in the scene.
"...on second thought, I should be going. Bye!"
And he was off as quickly as he came...

-------------------------

"What do you mean, you don't know who I am?"
The man just shakes his head in bewilderment.
"You mean... I broke into here to rescue you, and you don't even-. Ah, who am I kidding. Of course this happens with you."
"What- What do you mean?"
"Let's just say... I was smart enough to have a backup plan. Let's just hope he pulls through..."

Day 7 begins
...and will end in 48 hours

Today is Market Day!

Bargain Bill's Pawn Shop - Whatever you want, we just might have it! If not, we'll make something work!

Just like before, to buy an item from the market, you pick a shop and pay an amount of money. The more you pay, the better the item will be, and the better your chances of actually receiving an item. However, this Market Day is a bit different from others. At Bargain Bill's, you choose a power that you want the item to have. It does not have to be a power in the game, but a non-comprehensive list of potential roles is in the opening post. You can ask for whatever you want, though you might not get quite that. Still, if you do get an item, it will be similar to what you ask for, if not exact. As for how well it works, well... higher prices means he's less likely to sell you something broken, eh? Oh, and please tell me this information in your QTs.

Missed One Day

Penguinator

banjo1985 has rejoined as #59. As such, he'll be receiving his new QT shortly.

With 9 players alive, the minimum to lynch is 3 votes.

[Nonayer]

I forgot I could rejoin... Can I rejoin now as number 2 if it's not taken?

[Count Dingdong]

Number 2 has not yet been taken, so you shall have it! Nonayer is now a Clueless Newcomer and shall receive his QT shortly.

[Tris]

Hey, Aric. Who'd you block?

[Ramsus]

I shall vote for Tanar so that he might give an explanation about what he's talking about. (So yeah, maybe everyone else knows, but I don't and I should point at someone ever I guess.)

[Internet Flea]

I'll vote for aric today, just because it looks like we've killed multiple Mooneys and Shiners and only one Police so far.

[Tris]

I shall vote for Tanar so that he might give an explanation about what he's talking about. (So yeah, maybe everyone else knows, but I don't and I should point at someone ever I guess.)

Aric claimed Police Voider.

[Aric Kale]

I'll vote for aric today, just because it looks like we've killed multiple Mooneys and Shiners and only one Police so far.

So you think we should vote the only Police claim? Really?
Are you even on our side?
Internet Flea.
Tanar, atm I don't really know if I can trust you. You haven't given me much confidence with your posting. Also, I'm lucky enough to have survived the night, having claimed already.

[Internet Flea]

So you think we should vote the only Police claim? Really?
Are you even on our side?

Police having lynch control at any point is effectively a loss for 2 out of 3 roles (2 out of 3 Town roles as well, assuming effective recruiters), so yes, I think we should kill a Policeman today.

Am I on your side? Maybe someday, but not today. (But seriously, recruit me so I can do something other than play odds.)

[Aric Kale]

So you're saying, that as Town (effectively neutral), you'd rather not see the Police win?
Kill him. Quickly.
I don't even understand you anymore...

- - - Updated - - -

Also, this game isn't about keeping the opposing sides balanced and fair at all times. If somebody has an important role and dies, their team may be ****ed, and that's that.
If Police are winning, than good for them.
Btw, I started out as a Police Seer, then died the second night, I think it was.
I can check to see who I scried, if you'd like.

But yeah, no.
IF, your mentality is just going to get yourself killed.

[Internet Flea]

So you're saying, that as Town (effectively neutral), you'd rather not see the Police win?

IF, your mentality is just going to get yourself killed.

Not on Day 7 with over half the roles unused. Once a team gets lynch control it's pretty much impossible to get it back, and that means there are thirty roles that have no major impact on the game.

And that other part is always true.

[Aric Kale]

Not on Day 7 with over half the roles unused. Once a team [Police] gets lynch control it's pretty much impossible to get it back, and that means there are thirty roles that have no major impact on the game.

And? I fail to see the problem. Easy win for the cops.

[Internet Flea]

Okay, I'm going to assume aric thinks the police have lynch control already.

Unfortunately for you, there's still a way to break that.

Everyone who is not Police should buy a high-cost Kill item today. It is possibly your only chance of winning.

That sounds like a bloodbath.

[Internet Flea]

That's what it takes to break lynch control.

- - - Updated - - -

Of course, it's only useful if we fail to lynch aric_kale today.

[banjo1985]

*shrugs*

I'm seriously struggling to understand the tactics in this game where nobody stays dead. We need to lynch someone from the Police, do we?

Sure, Aric_kale, then, if only because I can't be voted for today and can therefore be a git.

[Aric Kale]

I really don't understand right now. Like seriously, wtf.
Internet Flea has presented the stupidest argument I've ever heard, and everyone who's agreeing with it is on my lynchlist.
Lynch control should belong to the Police. Why are you arguing this point? Night kills are still open for every team. Are you forgetting that?

Also, checked my old QT, and it says I scried Penquinator as the old Town Multi-voter before he was killed.

But seriously Banjo, vote IF.

[EmeraldRose]

((Aric, what was your role claim? I think it was maybe when I was dead and don't remember...

And oh yeah! Items!

*goes shopping*))

[Aric Kale]

I am the Police Voider, essentially. The actual title is sleeper, since I'm an undercover agent.
But yeah, don't lynch me. especially not on Internet Flea's logic. God. So ridiculous. You're pretty much declaring yourself a wolf or wolf wannabe.

[EmeraldRose]

((I'm sorry, I don't believe I was following any sort of logic in my point. I was making a request for information. Here's the thing though, there's 3 factions in this game, plus vanillagers. And with the roles changing each time someone comes back...well...it's just chaos. Plus, I get tired of all the role claiming that goes on these days, just so people can stick it out another bit of time in game. The minute someone feels pressured: Hey guys, don't do that I'm X!" Ah well...there's time. Maybe someone else will roleclaim and I will switch to them.))

[Nonayer]

Aric_kale, why should you get a survival win when I didn't?

Seriously though, I'm clueless so I might as well just vote for someone.

[BasketOfPuppies]

THERE ARE NO WOLVES. There are Mooneys, Shiners, and Police. Just because their flavor is that of town doesn't mean that they are town. The only Town are those that haven't been recruited.

[Count Dingdong]

What Basket said. There are three teams in this game: Mooney, Shiner, and Police. All three have equal size and approximately equal power. At any point in the game, any team could have the most in town. Or they could not. All three teams can also recruit Town-aligned players, who will then work toward a win for the team(s) who recruited them.

I will also note that players who die at night have nothing revealed about them, so it's unclear who's been dying and at whose hands. There's actually been a large lack of information in this game, with multiple people dying most nights and two days with no deaths.

Current Vote Tally (~17+ hours left)
aric_kale - 5 (Tanar Aerdoth, Internet Flea, banjo1985, EmeraldRose, Nonayer)
Tanar Aerdoth - 1 (Ramsus)
Internet Flea - 1 (aric_kale)

No Vote - 3 (BasketOfPuppies, Aventine, Lex-Kat)
Penguinator has posted away and will not be penalized for not voting.

[Aric Kale]

Alrighty then. If you really want to kill a police officer, than I'm not a good target.

Neil - Neil, Neil, Neil... Anything you turn your attention to just seems to turn null and void. Well, if you're watching an enemy, at least you're annulling them?

You are the Shiner Voider. Once per night, you may target one player with your ability. If that player is not Shiner-aligned, they cannot use their night action. To fulfill your team win condition, you must survive to the end of the game by eliminating every player who is not Shiner-aligned. Note that Town-aligned players may be recruited to any team. To fulfill your individual win condition, you must successfully void three different players.

My real role. I voided Lex-Kat last night, so she's not a Shiner.

[Lex-Kat]

Internet Flea, for reporting multiple questionable scries.

[BasketOfPuppies]

Tanar to tie it up for 2nd.

[Aventine]

Tanar, to make the wagons a little closer and today a little more interesting.

Oh, and it has been said a few times now, but I figured I'd repeat it. Police are not town, police are not "good" in this game. They are just one more "wolf" faction at odds with the others.
