I'll admit to being skeptical of cronin, but I don't really know anything about Gram. I have no read on him, and that's why I was fine with a lynching or duking of him, just to see what happens. But, I *really* can't figure cronin out, and have a hard time taking everything he says at face value. Eventually, he did come out and say that Gram is a demon, but for such a long time, he wouldn't even say that -- just talked about the number of kills there would be if we didn't. I mean, how could not lynching Gram result in three more people being killed? I'm not asking for any reveal here -- even a POSSBILE way that could go down. It just all seems too weird, as if his argument isn't based on analysis -- just consequences. |

I'm sure Alan T will be the first to note that I meant to say POSSIBLE.

Unless to point out that would be the reason why its soo dangerous to accuse cronin, i dont see much of a point in that post. I doubt anyone forgot that

So SnDvls, are you answering me, that that's the possible way four people could have died if we didn't lynch Gram? I see now how four people could die, but -- why did it all depend on Gram?

let's look at it this way. I think most of us agree there are probally 3 elementals to make a concensis for the sacrafices (at least that is the general assumption I am working with) so WHAT IF.... St. C was right? I would have died, villager -1 for what ever reason the elementals had decided to each kill a person -3 more that would leave us down 4 people, now would all 3 of the elementals kills been villagers? I don't know that. How did St. C know about 4 kills? I have an idea once the night actions come in I'll post my thoughts. This works on a lot of assumptions just like Blade's did earlier so who knows. I'll I know is that we are gaining at least one villager back tonight because of me. If Barkeep is on the up and up that's two. looks like keeping me around could have been a 5 person swing in favor of the villagers. |

I don't have enough information to process the 4 kill concept, but I'm willing (for now) to believe that Cronin was very pro-human with his play today.

I think I've seen Gramm in here twice now...and he hasn't responded at all.

I think that's a given too, fwiw. Either you're an elemental, druid/warlock, or just a demon. Someone out there likes you.

I highly doubt he is an elemental. Dac was an elemental and that was quite clear. I don't think CW would make us three kill somebody via voting.

OK, got finished up reading...what in the hell is St. Cronin up to? I know for a fact there is a seer...
I was scanned on night 1(my role is a night time wonderer role, thats all I say now, it lets me know anything that may be happening to me at night, that how I know there was a seer at some point). So there is one lie there. I'll talk more after the night actions, but rest assured I'll be back to normal form tonight.

Did he say there wasn't a seer, or did he just suggest there wasn't?
I'm inclined to believe st.cronin.

Let me look again. I remember him saying he believes there wasn't a seer. And with him trying to pass everything he says off as fact, I have to call a lie on that. I'll admit, I just read about 9 pages in 25-30 minutes, so I may have accidently misread something. Let me check again.

The prevailing belief is that King was the seer, but as far as I could tell he didn't leave much of anything for us to view after he was cut down (assassin?) on Night 2.
By all means question Cronin, but I'll vouch for him as a non-demon. That's all I've got on him and I don't pretend to understand how he has played the game so far. Probably because of incomplete information ... |

I'm going to back out of the thread again and go back into my shell. I'll be back after the night deadline, hopefully tonight, possibly tomorrow morning I guess. I just don't want to tip my hand before the actions go through.

Just throwing this out there...
Maybe Gramm is the warlock and dubb is a fellow demon? It would seem to me that the warlock would have the other demons fighting for his life. Just tossing it out there...I'm probably dead wrong.

Alright, I'll comment before the actions b/c I don't like having accusations thrown my way. I am not a demon. I have no clue about Gramm, but I saw very little resistance thrown his way yesterday. It was an easy vote. Cronin, appears to consistantly have stupid information. One reason I don't believe his role, is b/c I see no reason how Coffee could know that if Sun was lynched, 4 would die today, unless Sun was a brutal type. I'm going to dig some more up, let me see. Cronin seems to have an impossible role. Coffee could give him hints, but he can't predict free will. And that is what all of us in this have, free will.

It's ok. I believe you, I was just throwing out suggestions. I keep trying to read through the thread...but apparently o'hare airport is having problems and we're having students call in...constantly.
Couple that with my tired state, and it's hard to concentrate.

Keep in mind, the guy vouching me for is vouching for you too. I'd be careful, b/c I'm leary of Hoops too. Sorry hoops, I don't know if it was you the viewed me of not, I tend to think it was King, but if you are right on with the way you are viewing everyones roles in this mess, good job indeed. I hate to say it, but I don't like lynching or killing Gramm with tell us a whole lot. I think either Sun, Hoops, or Cronin needs to die b/f I can get a really good read of this game at this point. And if one of them dies and is clean, that should clear the entire group. Of course if one is bad....

I see Coffee is in here. Hopefully we can get the night actions a little early. I have a feeling with the way today's lynch vote went, we have alot of talking to do tomorrow.

Yes, I'm backing both Cronin and Dubb as non-demons. For different reasons. And I am even more convinced at this point they are members of different factions. Everything Dubb has posted so far resonates with my expectations of his role, based upon pretty incomplete information before now.
I am not interested in revealing my role to validate how I have obtained some of this information. Some of it comes via night PMs, but there is other information that is obtained just by paying attention. |

Dubb, Cronin doesn't have knowledge of me but he knows SnDvls and Gram. You know you are not in his faction. Think this one through - I think a wrong play on this thinking could be very bad for us. I'm looking for help sifting through this data, and I'm worried that the demons have more complete information than me here. But if that isn't the case, then I don't want to help them along.
Clear as mud? I hope a little more clear than that, but not much. |

Cronin, you intimated that you knew the demons would not get a successful kill on Night 1. How would you have known that?
1. Did you somehow know who the demons would target? 2. Saldana appears to have lived based on his role - I can't imagine you knew he was the bard when he was fingering you the next day. So I'm definitely confused on that point. Also on the "4 die if SnDvls is lynched" stuff, but lets start with this comment. |

Cronin, the comment to Dubb wasn't intended to generate a response from you. I'm fine with you keeping that information vaulted (I think). But the 2nd question, directed at you about Saldana - is that info out of bounds as well until tomorrow?

I'll say this, if Cronin is an elemental, like I believe you are "hinting", then he isn't working for us. He set us up to lynch someone he knew he was protecting. Because my faction in with the humans, and if he isn't a demon that only leaves the elementals.
If you are claiming there are sub factions among the humans, you have alot more convincing to do. If Cronin is in fact an elemental, I have to believe they don't have a winning condition that they win if the humans win(or even one where they could win if the demons win). His play yesterday almost has to prove that.

My only guess is the elementals win if both the druid and warlock are alive in the end of the game.
Most likely not the answer, but my best guess.

I was actually going to guess that. But didn't want to come right out and say it. If that is the case, and Cronin is one, why would he steer the conversation toward Gramm and then protect him. The only thing I was making sense of, was that Gram was either the druid or warlock, but why would an elemental steer the convo toward one of those only to protect him? I have a guess...but I don't think I should say it before the night actions.

Dacman could potentially provide insight here, but he has been silent since his one post on elementals.

OK, screw it..could this be a situation where the elementals alternate between protecting the druid and warlock each day, and locked in the order at the start of the game. Thus if the lynch went the other way, they could have guarenteed a loss for themselves?

Maybe each elemental has his own agenda.
