3. Tom - bladescape more skilled than me, suspicious of him for while and other alternative

Elemental, I wouldn't call a big name. Well, he's been around a while, so I guess.
Myself, maybe. But not as big as Alarra or Murska. Not in any respect. bladescape was an autolynch replacement, so he's almost cleared through that. He did, however, replace C'Nor, who has been around long enough to have a well-known name. C'Nor does, however, have a tendency to get auto'd, so I don't know if he'd get picked.

As for my last post, I was suspicious of ERS yesterday, so I made a big long analysis of her voting history and posts.

Spoiler

Day 1: Random vote, some RP. Little to read.
Day 2: Something about Gray Mage, changes to TBF, changes to Grimmace after it matters much.
Day 3: A vote for.. Ramsus, who had already claimed. Changes to Grimmace shortly after.
Day 4: Missed this day.
Day 5: TBF again. Then the first one on GnomeGninjas.
Day 6: GnomeGninjas again.
Day 7: Murska. No reasoning given.
Day 8: Eternis, claims bladescape is using "faulty logic." Vote comes rather late. Also suspicions planswalker.
Day 9: TBFProgrammer, again. Claims TBFProgrammer is using "outdated logic." Mentions being suspicious of Istari. Reinholdt points out that ERS is being suspicious. bladescape points out logic. Change in vote to Alarra, claims bladescape is "guessing." RP post that night.
Day 10: planswalker immediately goes after ERS, then ERS points out some interesting instances.
"Then take a look at my record before you decide. On day 3 we weren't sure whether to believe Grue Bait or not. The votes were at a 3-3 tie literally whether or not to execute their seer or our own, and there were some pretty hard arguements for lynching Grue Bait. At that point I switched votes, making it 4-2 in Grue Bait's favor.
On day 5 I announced that I didn't believe Gnome Gninja and tried to form a bandwagon on him before GB asked us to lynch him and the bandwagon was forming on Istari.
If you really think I'm a changeling you might as well leave me be for now so I can continue to sabotage my own team. All I've ever done is say what I believe, whether it's agreed with or not."
Vote for Alarra.
Day 11: Vote for &we. Changes to Alarra.
Day 12: Vote for TigerFang.
Day 13... wait... what? Something doesn't line up, here... Vote for &we.

I didn't plan on showing it to anyone after ERS was killed, but there it is. By the end, I didn't feel that ERS was suspicious, I felt that she was a mason. She had mentioned Istari several times... but she had never voted for him.

With that said, I have another suspicion, but I would like a moment to look over voting history before I say anything.

That, and I'm one of the biggest proponents of the "big name theory." I'd like to think I wouldn't suggest something that would easily get my team killed.

I'm pretty sure Reinholdt was the changeling target.


Today, I'm voting for Tom the Mime for protecting him, though I've also another target in mind.

you're big name, but voting history doesn't point to wolf. since explained self, gonna count you town for now

wasn't talking bout bladescape but Tom the Mime. bladescape wasn't suspicious b/c of reasons you mentioned. C'nor may be big name (or not?) but also not most active so didn't think wolf. bladescape had suspicion on Tom the Mime since entered as AL replacee. Trust his knowledge of WW over mine.

@superdark: Istari cleared by Seer after mason claim

[super dark33]

Aight. Change vote to Lex-kat despite the dangers involved utnill a clearer target will show up.

Likewise. Even if it doesn't hold any longer, it was always likely to point at Alarra early on.

It's at the stage where Grue Bait should be coming very close to isolating the beast through a process of elimination and not too far off for the switched changling (with 5 non-Alarra scries since then and the remaining Mane 6 probably being okay given the low chance of turning them). I'll point at Elemental for now but I'll follow Grue's vote when it comes because I think helping with the process of elimination at this stage will be more helpful than any but the most solid and sure analysis.

[planswalker]

have a quick connection tonight. Elemental sounds like the best target. The big names theory is sounding more plausible to me each day.

[Elemental]

But I'm not a big name! I've played in what... Six games? Okay... Maybe I'm starting to be, but I'm hardly famous!

And I realise I have nothing whatsoever to actually offer in my defence.
Though I must say, if it comes down to it, it is better to kill me than a power role. I just wish you'd perhaps reconsider.

Now to consider who to vote for...

[EvilRoeSlade]

"Anyone can be a hero," whisper Batmare as she loads the bomb into her plane, intent on taking it where it can destroy nothing but herself. "Even a man who puts a coat on a young boy's back to show him that the world hasn't ended. Or even-"

Then "she" pulls off her Batmare costume.

"Soarin' of the Wonderbolts dude! I'm- I'm sorry everyone. All my life I've been a desirable bachelor and a celebrity athlete. But what I really wanted to be was a nameless and frightening middle-aged mare distrusted by the masses. It was my dream, but it wasn't the truth. I can't lie to you, and I can't lie to myself. I have to accept who I really am."

"So ciao!"

With that, Soarin' gathers up fifty of ponyvilles hottest mares and takes the train to Canterlot for a pub crawl. He leaves the bomb for some other pony to deal with.

[planswalker]

The brown earth pony in the yellow pants notices the bomb as he gets up the next morning.

"Uh, what are we gonna do with that?" he asks.

[Elemental]

Seemingly out of nowhere, the Count appeared. (Actually, he was walking along calmly but no one noticed with Soarin' dashing off and a bomb being left in the street.
We defuse it. Silver Scream, get me a screwdriver and some pliers!
Silver Scream reached into his saddle bag and removed a small box of tools.
I hope you know what you're doing Your Illustriousness.
Nonsense, of course I know what I'm doing. Cut the red wire.
Count Von Sterling unscrewed the outer casing and looked in. All the wires were the same colour.
Damn... I forgot we're red-green colour blind.

Unfortunately, they're rather on the small side.

[usourselves&we]

Well there is the size limitation, three ponies would take up more room then three humans. So in order to see all of them the zoom would have to be far back.
they are nice
They look nice right everyone?
now to think of their names and stories

[Reinholdt]

I don't really have a clue right now and work's keeping me too busy to really dig one up. Superdark just as an alternative. He hasn't been acting as suspicious as he usual does when he's town.

[Istari]

I'll agree with Reinholdt
Superdark
At the very least its good to have an alternative option, this wagon has gone a tad fast anyways.

[Lex-Kat]

Day ended.... apparently a while ago.

[Elemental]

I am more than willing to have my death postponed.

[Lex-Kat]

Day 13

The ponies of Tiaraville hadn't been a very happy bunch, ever since Nightmare Moon took over Equestria. But today, seemed to be a most unlucky day, even by comparison.

Ponies seemed to be tripping over everything, one even tripped over a a worm crossing their path. And when they weren't tripping, something would be falling on top of them.

Rumors began to spread that Dark Spark hadn't really defeated Discord, and the master of Chaos was back, playing an awful prank on them once again.

That's when they all began to notice a particular peculiarity. There was one area of Equestria that seemed untouched by Nightmare Moon's eternal darkness. Unhindered by Discord's havoc. Unregulated by Diamond Tiara's tyranny. The estate of Count von Sterling, Ember Metal. How had they not noticed this before? The Town Ponies grumbled to one another.

Meanwhile, completely unaware of the problem he was about to be facing, Ember Metal was enjoying a massage from a cute Spa Mare that he'd hired for the evening, needing to relax from his stressful life. Mmm. A little to the left, m'dear. a pause as she massages more to the left. Aaaaaah. That hits the spot.

*Knock knock knock* Huh!? Silver Scream, go see who's at the door. They're ruining my sap day. Insist they leave, at once. then he went back to relaxing.

Standing next to the Count, Silver Scream lowered the palm fan he'd been waving to keep Ember Metal cool. Yes sir. As he headed toward the door, Magic Hooves, the Spa Mare, winked at him and smiled. This caused Silver Scream to blush. He'd have to remember to talk with her later.

A moment later, Silver Scream opened the door, and looked at the crowd of upset town Ponies. His eyes went wide with surprise. What's the meaning....

But he was cut off by one of the ponies calling Get him!! And the angry ponies at the front reached in and yanked poor Silver Scream out.

But... Wait, you don't... You've got it all wrong. Heeeelp!! He slipped out of their grasps, and ran for his life out of Tiaraville.

Later that evening, Ember Metal was getting very hungry. He'd already rang the bell three times already. Where could that lazy man be? he wondered to himself.

Spoiler

Ember Metal, Count von Sterling (Elemental) continued to wait for Silver Scream to bring his evening meal. He was getting very hungry. He more than just a Town Pony.

NOTE: He was also a SuperCharged Town Pony, the day before.

No! Not Silver Scream!

[Tom the Mime]

Well that's no good. The possibility of the confirmed seer being autolynched isn't exactly great either.

[mangosta71]

Well, I suppose I can sign up as an AL replacement.

[super dark33]

Dark spark remained alone in the mansion.
Untill the count and silver scream return, the mansion is in his hands.
Now HE is the count.

Lets see if any of these books here that lay everywhere say somthing about opening portals.

The count was a very unorgenized and untidy person.

All malfunctioning guns go here, and all the books go to the library
and all the harpoons are now placed at stratigic locations around the mansion.

Whats this? is this a map?
SECRET PASSAGES AROUND THE MANSION
Well, if this map only includes the passagway from the kitchen to the garden then nothing else is new.
It wasnt even hidden proparly!

As Dark spark opened the map his jaw dropped.
WHo knew the count had an underground complex?

[Lex-Kat]

Night 13

A horrible screeching noise, akin to running a brush over piano wires, sounded in the distance, followed by a blue police box slowly resolving from insubstantial into physical form.

A brown pony pokes his head out, and looks about. Hmmm. Wonder where we are now? He licks a hoof and holds it up into the wind. Feels like... Equestria.... he looks around again. Must be during the reign of Nightmare Moon, second period. Maybe?

Dr. Whooves moves out of the door way, or more likely is shoved, as he is followed by his companion, Amethyst Pond. Let me see! Ooooooh. She says, enjoying the sights around her. This is beautiful. The dark purple ponies nature shines through, as coat shimmers in the moonlight.

Running hooves can be heard in the distance, coming closer. Closer. A black insectoid-like pony is running toward them, screaming excitedly. Heeeelp!! Save me my.... Save me, strange one!

Behind him flies a blue and yellow mare, with fiery red and orange hair. She wears goggles as she flies, and seems to have a determined look on her face. Come back here! She puts on more speed, hoping to catch him before he gets to the innocent ponies ahead. get out of the way! she calls ahead. She's dangerous!

Confused by which "she" the flying pony is talking about, Amethyst just stands stupidly in front of the door. She's a psycho! the changeling calls, and then bowls into Amethyst, plunging them both inside the TARDIS.

Followed quickly by Spitfire. Ha! There's no where to..... hide? This place is huge!

Dr. Whooves, slightly amused by this turn of events, nevertheless follows everyone else inside. Now listen here, you can't just go barging into... Hey, leave that lever alone! And the doors close behind.

Soon the same screeching noise can be heard, and the blue phone box slowly fades away.

Spoiler

Dr. Whooves (Istari), along with Amethyst Pond, Spitfire, and a NPC changling all disappear inside the TARDIS. He was Spitfire {Mason}.

[Grue Bait]

Whoops, I uh, forgot about this one. Superdark for no reason.

[Count Dingdong]

Then assuming hasn't been confirmed so good a guess as any. And others with more knowledge of him than me thought him suspicious. Guess I'll go superdark for now.

(for roleplaying)
"Ah, the standard hidden passage. I used to do that back when I was a Count. Well, times change, get elected Mayor, suspicions, backstabbery, betrayal, usual stuff. If followed Count Code, must use only each four pieces of evidence. Have useful pnemonic too! 'One, ah, ah, ah. Two, ah, ah, ah. Three, ah, ah, ah!'" *Lightning flashes and passageway opens behind him* "Used that password too! Feel friends with him already, sad to see him gone..."

[planswalker]

If we're still going with the "big names" theory, I'd like to hear from TBFprogrammer, just to be thorough.

[Reinholdt]

superdark is a better choice right now, I think.

[Tom the Mime]

Superdark. Unconfirmed by seer must be getting pretty close to being a wolf, even for the after the changling switch. Probably a good idea for Grue to remove his point now just in case Superdark is the beast.

[TBFProgrammer]

Nice as that is to hear, I doubt it's true (me being a big name). I have occasional successes, like with Gnome earlier in this game, but I haven't been around very long (one year and a few months).


Anyways: I'm going to take this Superdark vote to mean that there are at least four players cleared from the seer's perspective and we have a shot to win on attrition. Five would give a solid shot and six would be a guarantee.

I'd call you a big name. You've been around a lot longer than many of the people here. I mean, I've been around "a year and a few months." But, in a look at your voting history, I'm not seeing wolf.

You also have a very distinct playstyle. You're very thorough and logical.

So.. Super dark, what have you got for us?

[super dark33]

Being unconfirmed makes you a wolf now?

well who is alive and confirmed?


I think Planeswalker has somthing to hide, and if he is confirmed then all i have to say in my defense that it is hard following you guys.

[planswalker]

well, honestly, I put TBF's name in red to see if he'd panic or something. He didn't and I don't think he has anything to hide.

super dark33because, I'm not sure about anyone else.

Not really sure what to say here. Grue spoke up for me early on to help keep people from lynching me for being a total noob. Since then I've had a LOT more experience in this and Careless Village and I've figured out how to better analyze things. If there's something specific you'd like to call me out for, I'll do my best to explain my reasoning behind it. Don't know if Grue has confirmed my role as a vanilla town pony or not.
