Blade, count me among the intrigued.
I strongly suspect you are wrong on some of the people chasing you, unless somehow the wolves had information on the survivors very early in the game. I picked up on something in the thread yesterday that has me convinced that KWhit is a survivor. Spleen's staunch defense of KWhit makes me think that he is a survivor as well. Raiders had put out the idea that he was being "coached" earlier but that is not the path I'm going down with my suspicions on him at this point. Again, he is now showing up fairly high on my survivor list. Right now the distrust list is Alan T, Desnudo, and Pennywise. I'm not arrogant enough to think that all three are others, but if at least one of them is not an other I'm completely off my game. It feels like sides are beginning to be drawn here - hope I'm aligning with the correct people. VOTE PENNYWISEB |

Blade, Post #686

I can't be late for work this morning, so I'm not going to have too much time to work through this stuff today, Maverick. But I'm not following the part that the others would kill you, yet waste a night - unless you are suggesting that you have a vanilla survivor role and that is a wasted night for them. If you have some way to protect yourself for a night, that is great. But I don't know how you could have that as well as knowing something in terms of a failed aasassination last night on mckerney. |

It is possible that mckerney had a "blessed" role if he was able to resist a night attack, although if he was the target of a survivor assassination attempt I wonder if that would come into play.
Blade, if you know there was an assassination attempt on mckerney last night then do you believe that Mr. W's death was just part of the game mechanics of being lynched (jail, then death the followin morning if some special role does not save him)? Because earlier speculation was that somehow Mr. W was assassinated while in jail, despite the fact that Post #1 says "lynched". I think you were one of the people who brought this up, but would have to look back to verify that. Which would have to wait for this evening as I have about five minutes now ... |

Appetite whetted.
One of three things is going on here: 1.) You are telling the absolute truth, and I'm glad you are on my side instead of some buff other 2.) You are making all of this up to avoid being targeted as a simple survivor with zero ability to defend yourself at night 3.) You are an other engaged in some very creative fiction. Two of these three are options that work just fine for me. I'll try to work through some possibilities in my head today and we'll catch up before the deadline. |

dola, i did not study this coming in like i said...my comments about not knowing anything earlier were entirely true. Saying i studied was to prevent having to do this. When my defense of the lost thread(i thought a solid one too) failed, i went to this. Basically the only way i die is through lynch. Which is why im doing this...i do not want to be lynched.

Are you playing a Season 1 or Season 2 named character? So far I haven't seen anything about Season 2 characters in the game, although there have been some assumptions out there by people that there is a mix of 1/2 characters in this game.

What I see here are groups being formed. I really believe that Blade is a survivor. Spleen, on the other hand, I believe is an other; and at this point I think that mckerney is as well. I will vote for one of them this morning within the next 10 minutes.

By voting for me, Raiders Army has shown me that he is an 'other'. Were he a surivior, he would know that I am one as well if he is paying attention.
I have confidence that KWhit, hoops, Blade, and myself are good guys. KWhit and hoops I am 100% sure about and Blade about 80%. UNVOTE BLADE6119 VOTE RAIDERS ARMY I am very close to giving up how I know these folks are good guys, but I want to hold off to see if I can figure out who else is on the good side. |

Ok if Blade is telling the truth, which I honestly have no idea how much of this adds up... Hopefully someone with more lost knowledge than me can validate some of his statements at his possibly having a role as the security system. Anyhows, if he is telling the truth, this puzzles me more about mckerney.
He was virtually the clincher vote for a villager lynch yesterday, and then according to Blade (if Blade is being honest here) was protected that night from an attack? Why would you protect someone who killed a villager like that? It seems like right now my choices for the day are either A) Pennyweis , or B) Someone else. I've been reading along with everyone's thoughts about why Pennyweis is not on our side, and i still don't see anything that made him any more or less suspicious than Blade or Raiders in his day 1 vote. It seems to me alot of people are jumping on the lynch Penny bandwagon just out of headsteam. Blade likely won't be a lynch target today since he seems to have done a role reveal (even though he said earlier on that any role reveals on this day likely would help the others).. I still don't see why Penny is any more or less suspicious than Raiders right now. I guess I don't like the bandwagon forming for Penny right now.. so going to go a different direction VOTE Mckerney |

You are absolutely right. I think I am stuck looking for a certain red flag identifying survivors that may not be the same red flag for all survivors. My vote for Raiders was a very quick reaction, but I stand by my vote at this point. It is time to look into Mr. Raiders some more... |

The interesting implication is that the security system is not on the same 'side' of the Others - although that's more interesting to think about in terms of the show than the game. |

My role special power is basically that i can do a lot of damage if attacked by someone...if the others attack me i would most likely either not die(with 1-2 others dying) or die(with 2 dying) if im not mistaken...actual result depends upon dice roll, with an 80/20 chances respectively. Knowledge i picked up about the assasin was utter luck, and i doubt i will be recieving it again. Im basically a blessed villager with the means to fight back...anyone else have questions? I can do what i can to answer

I guess I still don't see that Mr. W was killed by anything other than a lynch. Maybe I am taking the front post too literally like you are saying. I'm hoping that we figure more out about how the lynch works after day 2 for sure. You seem to either be blowing alot of smoke, or have alot more info about whats going on than I do though, so I'm stuck to either blindly trust what you are saying about Mr. W's death and all the other stuff, or to think you are lying. Right now I do not see any reason that you would come out with such a huge story though, so I guess I'm believing you for now. |

Hmm Blade, one of the earlier theories that someone had was that a person was jailed, and then the "jailer" would decide if they lived or died while the jailer was still alive. One person tossed out the idea of the security system making this call. Now that you are saying you have a role similar to or exactly like this can you say whether or not you had any role in the death of Mr.W?
Is that how you know it wasn't just a case of him being lynched? |

Hmmmm... Very interesting turn of events overnight. I'm not sure what to believe at this point.
Something I find very interesting is that Blade states the following: Quote:
Quote:
If true, why would he post this? If he is truly on the survivors side, wouldn't he want to keep this to himself and let the others attack him? It sounds like drawing an attack to him would hurt the others - it would take away one of their night kills and possibly take down one of them too (his "drastically hurt" comment). He obviously felt that he needed a role reveal to clear his name, but there are a couple of things that trouble me about it: 1) It was hours and hours before the voting deadline and Blade doesn't have many votes on him at all (maybe 1, I think...) - seems too early for a role reveal. 2) He gave away the element of surprise (and a huge advantage for us survivors) by telling the others that he can't be killed by them. THAT'S A BIG GIFT THAT HE JUST GAVE TO THE OTHERS IF TRUE! And I don't think he needed to include that information as part of his role reveal. So why did he? Maybe to explain why the others don't kill him tonight (and tomorrow night, etc.) if he avoids lynching. I'm not saying I don't believe him, but it deserves more scrutiny. |
