And remember, I'm also curious in Izulde's version of events.


Without giving up too much, nothing changed here. I saw a prostitute, a john, and a special character. If they aren't getting laid, I'm just about positive they are a special.

Oh, I saw the arrest and release as well - so I guess that could extend. But I'm really talking about events that occur during what I consider the two "phases" of night actions and I believe that the arrest/release is the last action of the evening, after the two main phases are completed.

I believe you're wrong as I've twice been told in my visits with johns about arrests that happened that night.

hoopsguy 12-03-2006 12:17 AM

Sequentially, it has been the last thing to appear in my PMs. But if that conflicts with information others are receiving I withdraw that assumption.

Information from Izulde or Swaggs - who have been arrested and released - may be able to help clear this up if it is worth exploring.

I think its dependent on many things..remember, swaggs was able to recieve two visitors in the opium den before arrest, while izulde arrest pre-emted her hook-up

Unlike the last two, i dont have a confirmed clear of her from anyone and therefore she could very well be evil. That is enough for me, as after today a ratio win for evil should be pretty far off

st.cronin 12-03-2006 12:51 AM

I am Watson. Sherlock Holmes and I interviewed dubb last night.

Dubb is the American Werewolf.

Sherlock Holmes and I have full pm capabilities, but different roles. Sherlock Holmes can investigate players. So far he has investigated ntndeacon, Schmidty, saldana, and dubb93.

As Watson I have something like a bodyguard role. I won't go into details on that just yet.

Holmes is, as you may have guessed, Blade.

We have no information on LSG so we are going to hold back and see what happens.

But we definitely want to
vote dubb93

st.cronin 12-03-2006 12:52 AM

I can imagine, as you just got some sweet tail from izulde...we knew you noticed us follow you home, and im glad you didnt act on it.

Dubb being bad also proves bad guys can visit prostitutes, meaning those customers who prostitutes can not explicitly clear must now be reviewed for our remaining bad guys.

Lorena 12-03-2006 12:59 AM

Well alrightee then. The lynch seems like a no-brainer:

vote dubb

And since no one has vouched for LSG:

vote lynch Lonestargirl

st.cronin 12-03-2006 01:00 AM

One last note - what forced our hand was the accusation that LSG was the werewolf. That's obviously not true.

Now, she may well be Moriarity or Fagin.

I mean, seriously, why would I have visited a whore last night if I didn't know for a fact that she would clear me? Now if she got that info from me is one thing, but I know for a fact I show up clean to a whore if they get my role from me. Why do you think we have left Barkeep, Hoops, and Izulde alive?

Therefore, i trust not a word you have said here-to-fore. If izulde does in fact clear you for sure, then ill consider my path. But so far i take everything you say as the opposite of fact.

Because we were openly looking at(myself, path, and a few others) at the people who had yet to visit prostitutes as our targets. I think you figured it would help you earn trust for izulde to say you had visited, and worst case scenario she learns nothing about you.

I see no downside in that, especially when im encouraging the bad guys to kill so i can catch them. Not only did you not kill, you went to earn trust.

Is that a good enough explanation?

Blade6119 12-03-2006 01:27 AM

Dubb, you were one of my scan targets because you had not been accounted as doing anything. I told you that yesterday, about how i was concerned you had yet to visit a prostitute. It actually makes perfect sense considering our chat yesterday

Make no mistake. I did not kill b/c the moon was not out. It's hard to become a werewolf with no moon. Had the moon come out you and Cronin were both dead.

Who was your kill target in your orders then? I doubt there was one, and i likely buy your story about the moon. But you werent going to kill, regardless of whether cronin and i interrogated you and followed you home.

If I go two days or more without a kill my powers grow and I get to pick an additional target. Since I hadn't killed since night one I was allowed two targets if the moon was out. Unlucky for me the weather has not been nice to Path.

He tells me he targeted both you and Cronin and I have no reason to doubt him.

I care little for stories, just facts. Facts were you could be confirmed doing nothing all game but be out and about. That looks pretty bad...add to that you have been quieter then you used to be, and it just made sense to scan you

She did not kill tyrith, but we have other killers(at least one) still out and about. As she is one of the very few still uncleared, she makes a good lynch choice. If shes not lynch, i will have to scan her in the next 1-3 nights. By killing dubb we have a ratio of likely at least 5 times the total of bad guys. Therefore, we can afford to take a chance she is evil. She is more likely to be evil then most players alive, so lynching her for free right now on top of dubb makes sense.

Two things...first, your accent, while good, was not convincing enough. You pronounced a few words just enough for us to catch it as not english, and in fact and american accent. Secondly, you had an excess of hair in a few places you shouldnt. Thusly, we knew...

I never planned to scan DC or Izulde last night, just said that to keep me alive. Barkeep and others have gotten mad at me for all my lies, but they are all in purpose of a villager win. It may not seem so to most, but they are.

Why do men have nipples?

To tell you the truth, nobody really knows. The best explanation I've been able to find (and frankly it doesn't explain very much) is that nipples aren't a sex-linked characteristic. In other words, nipples are just one of those sexually neutral pieces of equipment, like arms or brains, that humans get regardless of sex.

As you may know, every human being gets a unique set of 23 pairs of chromosomes at conception. These fall into two categories. One pair of chromosomes determines sex--the XX combination means you become female, the XY combination means you become male.

The other 22 pairs, the non-sex chromosomes (they're called autosomes), supply what we might call the standard equipment that all humans get. These 22 pairs constitute an all-purpose genetic blueprint that in effect is programmed for either maleness or femaleness by the sex chromosomes. The programming is done by the hormones secreted by the sex glands.

For example, the autosomes give you a voice box, while the sex hormones determine whether it's going to be a deep male voice or a high female voice. Similarly, the autosomes give you nipples, and the sex hormones determine whether said nipples are going to be functioning (in females) or not (in males).

One interesting consequence of the developmental set-up just described is that during the very early stages of fetal life, before the sex hormones have had a chance to do their stuff, all humans are basically bisexual. Among other things, you have two sets of primitive plumbing--one male, one female. Only one set develops into a mature urogenital system, but you retain traces of the other for the rest of your life.

It's tempting, therefore, to say that male nipples are yet another vestige of your carefree bisexual youth. Trouble is, male nipples are hardly vestigial. They're full-sized and fully equipped with blood vessels, nerves, and all the usual appurtenances of functioning organs. Why this should be so nobody knows--in some other mammals, such as rats and mice, male nipple development is completely suppressed by the male sex hormones. (Incidentally, don't start thinking that at one time our human male ancestors must have suckled their young. So far as anybody knows, male lactation has never developed in any mammalian species.)

Human nipples appear in the third or fourth week of development, well before the sex characteristics. (The sex hormones start to assert themselves at seven weeks.) As many as seven pairs of nipples are arranged along either side of a "milk line," a ridge of skin that runs from the upper chest to the navel.

Normally only one pair amounts to anything, but on about one baby in a hundred you can detect some vestige of the other ones, usually on the order of a freckle. There are cases of women who ended up with an extra breast, which made them freak show candidates not so many years ago. Luckily today the women can avail themselves of corrective surgery while the rest of us can watch Jenny Jones.

Anyway, both male and female babies are born with the main milk ducts intact--the gland that produces milk is there in the male, but it remains undeveloped unless stimulated by the female hormone, estrogen. Occasionally, a male baby is born with enough of his mother's estrogen in his body to produce a bizarre phenomenon known as "witches' milk," with the male glands, suitably stimulated, pumping away at the moment of birth.

In the adult male, the dormant glands can still be revived by a sufficient dose of estrogen. Actual lactation is rare--only a couple cases have been recorded. But at least one writer (Daly, 1978) has suggested that the "physiological impediments to the evolution of male lactation do not seem individually surmountable." Meaning we may yet see the dawn of the truly liberated household.

I do know who they are, but again, I will take that to the grave.

All right, dubb and I hooked up last night, but there was nothing that came up that would clear up.

I did however notice two people interrogating him and he getting awful creeped out about it, though they did let him go.

Oh and I saw LSG being hauled off to jail.

VOTE DUBB

LSG I'm holding off on.

A tee-shirt cut off at the arms and a pair of basketball shorts. The shirt is all black nike sized XL and the shorts are all black with white stripes down the side size XXL so it goes down to my knees being that I'm over 6 ft. tall. I also have on white nike socks and the oldest pair of addias basketball shoes known to man. Size 14.

Changed jobs, got new hours and have spent time with my girlfriend and friends. The reason for not playing werewolf was I was trying to figure out how exactly I could play working from 130-10PM without having any internet access at work.

And to tell you the truth, changing jobs was a VERY hard decision being as how I spent 3 years in college to get a degree and then realized I did not want to do what I was doing. Thus it was a huge decision when I quit being a nurse and took a job making 10$ on the hour less to be more happy. I've also been trying to figure out how I'm going to go back to school and what for now that I have a huge college loan payment and make alot less money than I should be.

Wow, I really thought Izulde was going to clear Dubb!
