Convoy VI: Run Bandit, Run

[Aventine]

Are you willing to give up a chance at a Murska-seer just because he could be a wolf? A bit more seriously, I'm not arguing that he's absolutely a seer or that he's absolutely a wolf, I'm just saying that the way to test a seer isn't lynching them. Even if they're Murska.

Bah, everybody knows there is no such thing as a Murska-seer. He is always a wolf, that's just one of the fundamental laws of physics.

By the way, just in case not everyone has figured this out: I am 100% joking.

EDIT:

Continuing to vote for a seer claim? That's bad enough normally. I mean, yeah it could be a fake claim, but you don't lynch a possible fake claim, you wait for some evidence while keeping an eye on them. Especially since we have two mason claims. Seriously, one of Xihirli or Kish will likely die tonight, and so tomorrow the power roles claim to the survivor. Two seer/fool claims means Murska is almost certainly telling the truth, three means we have a fake claim and the masons can work out who it is.

Hello people. Sorry for the delay. Lost power yesterday, and once I got that back sometime this morning, found I had no internet. Posting from phone, which I don't enjoy.

Ending Day now. When I get a new modem, I will write up a narration, and begin the night phase.

Again, sorry. This is not how I wanted to start my first game back. 😔

Take your time, Lex. Life happens. This is just a game, after all.

Oh that’s perfectly fine. We have been entertaining ourselves quite well in the meantime you must admit.

[Murska]

I may be a wolf. But I am no bear.

[GrayDeath]

So am I, but you didn't exactly all jump to lynch me.

Indeed.

But I am used to being targetted by now once I do not instantly do what most do, change my vote ond ay one + times.

Honestly, all that claimless discussion leading to many votes for me is typical for the part of WW Type Games I dont like very much. Swingy bandwagoning and wierd argumentation.

Ah well, who knows, mahap the tune will change once you see who/what I was/am.....^^^



@ Lex: Happened to me 6 weeks ago. lets hope your ISP does not use snail mail.
Good luck!

I may be a wolf. But I am no bear.

I may be grey, but I`m not a Wolf. ^^

[BasketOfPuppies]

it’s all good Lex, things happen.

[Duck999]

Okay, I just got back and realized a lot happened when I thought the day had ended. I crossed out my vote, then realized the day has actually ended now, so I'm kind of not voting for anyone ATM. Sorry.

{Duck, I counted your vote for sake of the Autolynch count.}

Day 1

Kathrine Gato, known to most of the truckers who pull up to her highway dive as "Sugar Bear" looked out from her booth, and saw three bears heading West on I-20. She went into the back and listened in on her interceptor, they was setting up a roadblock. Something about catching themselves...

"Hey out there, this is Sugar Bear, you hearin' me? There's a bear trap being set on Westbound on I-twenty, just outside of Atlanta. You boys, and girls, may want to find yourselves a way around it, hear?"

After repeating the warning a second time, Katharine got up and walked back out. Standing next to the counter, a not-so-friendly fuzzy stood waiting for her. "Aww, crapola." she says, then turns around to await her knew bracelets.

"Sugar Bear", the Waitress and Mason.

Outside of the Honey Pit bar 'n' grill, Kurt "Big Cat" Gato stood outside of his big red rig. He was just pulling in to see his sister, when he heard her call over the radio. Not too soon after the first call, a smokey sped past him, pulling up to the restaurant, and quickly making his way inside. Knowing there was trouble, Big Cat made his way inside. "Get your paws off my sister." he demanded.

Sugar Bear turns at the familiar voice, "Stay back, Kurt. He ain't gonna hurt me. We don't need no more trouble, hear? I'll be okay."

The deputy, knowing Big Cat's reputation, waits patiently for the man's response, thankful that he can hide the fear in his eyes behind a pair of shades.

Reluctantly, Big Cat steps back, and causes no trouble as the deputy takes his sister downtown.

Night 1 Begins
(And will end in 24 hours)

[Xihirli]

Power Roles, please PM me and Kish tonight.

I'll give you a cake?

[AvatarVecna]

Wait, that's not right. kgato didn't have the most votes...like, not even close... >.<

[Xihirli]

Yeah. We're going to have to investigate that once we get some power roles. Maybe the Neutral has Day-Powers.

[rakkoon]

Wow, we still killed a Mason...damn.

[BasketOfPuppies]

I’m skeptical about Xihirli and Kish. They could be wolves just trying to figure out who to nightkill.

[Aventine]

I’m skeptical about Xihirli and Kish. They could be wolves just trying to figure out who to nightkill.

I suspect we would have had a counter-claim. If we're paranoid, it might not be a bad idea to wait for day (I'm guessing one of them is dead tonight)

I gotta agree with Aventine: we know from the death reveal that there are masons, and no one claimed that Xihirli was lying. The chances of Xihirli!wolfbear lying about being a mason and not being counterclaimed by the "real" masons is low. Allowing a wolf to lie about being a mason uncontested is a very bad play for the masons. Until we have a really good reason to think otherwise, we should accept that Xihirli is a mason.

Including someone double-voting *cough*Cuth*cough*, my count had GrayDeath at 8, Kgato at 4, Murska at 3, and Xihirli and Kish each at 1. I counted Duck's vote because he hadn't crossed it out at EOD.

[Kish]

We're allowed to talk at night?

Well, then, I'm skeptical about BasketOfPuppies; it should be clear now why I wanted people to switch off kgato.

It’s clear now but wasn’t then, at least not for me. Besides, kgato didn’t have a majority of votes.

How do Alphas usually work?
It might be reasonable to strongly suspect Grey Death is the Alpha with that result.

How do Alphas usually work?
It might be reasonable to strongly suspect Grey Death is the Alpha with that result.

From what I've seen previously, Alphas are either difficult to scry accurately, difficult to lynch, or (in some cases) both. However, regardless of whether the Alpha in this game is difficult to scry or not, the first post in the thread seems to indicate they've got a measure of protection from the lynch:

Sheriff Buford T. Justice - (Alpha Smokey) His idiot son's bride just ran off with a Sumbitch, and he's determined to get him. Needs 50% vote to be lynched.

It's possible that could mean "the alpha is only lynched if at least half the votes cast are for the alpha"; it could also mean "the alpha is only lynched if they receive a number of votes equal to at least half the number of currently living players", which is slightly more problematic. Based on Logic's quick vote count, though, either of those rules would mean that (if GrayDeath was the Alpha) that he wouldn't get lynched (8 votes for GreyDeath isn't half of all players or half of the voting players).

[Aventine]

I'd guess 50% of living players rather than 50% of votes. Sometimes games will have day end when someone has votes from at least 50% of living players, this seems like a twist on that idea.

But yeah, my money's on Grey Death as alpha

[Lex-Kat]

Fu.... dge!!! I don't know why, but I fixated on kgato and killed them, instead of GrayDeath. I only admit this, as it is a major eff-up on my part, and doing so has completely skewed the game.

Any suggestions on how to fix this? Continue on? Start over?

Game on hold while this is discussed. ​Pixie has gotten rusty in narrating.

[Kish]

Ah, yikes.

Hm. Considering it's only Night One, starting over sounds like the best choice to me.

[Xihirli]

Yeah learning another mason changes quite a bit even if we just swap them. Seems to me that starting over would work.

Too bad, too. I hadn't been a mason before.

[AvatarVecna]

Starting over is probably the best solution, yeah.

[Ramsus]

Sounds good to me.

[Murska]

I'm okay with that, I guess. Probably was the Fool anyway.

[Deathslayer7]

I'm okay too

[BasketOfPuppies]

Start over.

@Murska- betcha I was the fool!

[rakkoon]

Yeah sure, reboot!
