Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
@Bullz, we thought you might be NKing us because we were annoying you. But our roles allowed for open defense. And the more you killed us the more intentionally obnoxious it got.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
I genuinely don't understand how nobody else seemed to realise who you all were. If I'd been a civ I'd have suspected people for it. I was hoping I'd be able to plant doubts in your/TH's minds about people who were going after you so hard and that probably helped my death. But regardless, for all we knew it was just a matter of time before this very obvious 5-person civ-friendly team decided to go after the actual baddies, and we couldn't let that happen.S~V~S wrote:So did ours.

You weren't annoying us... Well not all of us... I found it quite funny actually that people seemed so oblivious. As I said earlier, the only person we really killed purely for being a Celestial was Splints. Golden was one of the initial names we threw out as potential Celestials, but we weren't sure. DP died more because if he'd been lynched his team would become trusted. TH seemed like he was coming after us.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
Which to be honest is probably why I thought you were bad. I couldn't understand why a player with BTSC could continue to read civvies as baddies, and baddies as civvies.S~V~S wrote:We weren't working for the baddies, we were horribly misguided though; i honestly believed BF to be bad, we ALL thought Sophie was bad, and several of us really thought you were bad. We tried to connect to them after the killed Splints. They blew us off and then killed TH. After that we lost our win, so we didn't give a crap.
The only reason I changed my mind was because I had the skull which could let me check a dead player, and I checked Golden, learning he was a Celestial. I then did a complete reread of him, and every player he did not suspect. Between the interactions with you and him, and his non-suspicions, I was able to confidently figure out who the other four Celestials were.
Then I was promptly NK'd.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [NIGHT 3]
OH! So, funny story here. I wanted the Celestials to steal the Ear Tubes that I stole from Liz Night 1. I figured I was going to be nightkilled very promptly for coming after Epig and getting him lynched, and I didn't want the Ear Tubes in baddie hands.Long Con wrote:Anyway, I just want to reiterate to the Celestials, to Ichabod: please steal from me tonight. I promise that you will be glad you did. If you don't, then a great opportunity for you will be lost.
Unfortunately, I didn't know that I had stolen the Bottle from Epig's safe when I assumed Luke McKracken's role. It was unclear that Luke got to STEAL from the safe, it seemed like he just got to SEE what was in the Safe.
So when Llama told me my Bottle was stolen, I was like "What bottle??" Sorry if that was confusing, TH, I can't imagine what you guys must have thought I was trying to do.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
When half the civs left are vouching for the other half, the game becomes stupidly difficult for the mafia. So the people who vouch get killed to deter others from making the same choice. Canuck's inactivity meant she wasn't an issue for us, but she was still practically a confirmed civ along with you. So you died. A big reason why we killed Rabbit was SVS' vouch for him. MM and LC were killed for being too good at the game, we had reason to believe BR was a dangerous civ, and you've seen why we killed Celestials. Who do people expect the baddies to kill, if not those who pose the biggest threats or cause them the most problems?Dom wrote: So I was killed because you were "annoyed" with the vouch I made for Canuck?

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
This pretty much sums it up. The latter half of the game felt like a lot of people getting lynched because nobody came in and vouched for them.

The bottle was mostly useless until we had the idea to curse one of us with it in case we were silenced. I think the baddies ended up killing TH instead of silencing him, but if they had stuck to their routine of killing the celestial that they silenced the previous day, it would have allowed TH to post still like SVS was doing with the double curse.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [NIGHT 3]
It was great, and as the game went on I became more and more suspicious that she was Legga. Damn, I wish I had Legga's power the night I got killed. But that night, I got the power to roleblock 2 people. I saw it as a great way to narrow down a couple of folk who were not killing, but I never thought to roleblock my own wife, which would have saved my life.fingersplints wrote:What did you guys think of SVS buddha story?

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
Defending =\= vouching.
I thought Rabbit was a civ, I did not KNOW. So how could I vouch, Bullz?
The fact that he was the only one building valid cases on you guys had no bearing on your decision to kill him?

Oh, and I do understand why you killed the celestials - but no matter how justified it was, I think it was the thing that cost you the game. Not just killing us, but the constant everything on us... silences etc. We had no choice but to go after you. Actually, our interests were in taking out those civilians who could steal stuff from us.
Oh well, these things happen. I mourn not for SVS's loss, because she did us proud.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
FWIW I don't like that I silenced TH three times. When I usually have silencing roles, I don't silence the same person more than once unless there's a good reason. I did it here because my team felt it was the best tactical approach to bringing down our enemies. We basically viewed the Celestials as civs and didn't even consider the idea you'd be interested in winning with us.Golden wrote:Oh, and I do understand why you killed the celestials - but no matter how justified it was, I think it was the thing that cost you the game.

PS - Bullz you played a really good game. I always thought you were bad, but never found any real way to pin it on you.
Bullz was the only one who had me fooled completely. The reason I wanted to look at him at first after Epignosis's lynch was the fact that he voted for the key (when Epignosis had the safe) and because a couple dead players I trusted suspected him. Unfortunately, a reread of Bullzeye made me change my mind, as did his reactions to my suspicion.

Three items (four if you count the additional will) gave people bonuses when used. The stock certificate, the promissory note, and the will. Every time anyone used one of these, Sato Okimo was awarded extra lynch votes he could use as desired. Canucklehead never cashed any of hers in though.
Also, for the avatar contest, I picked images for people who sent nothing in, so that low-participants wouldn't be outed by their lack of pictures.

Did the Ivory Arrow do anything, or was it just a Celestial relic?

The Ivory Arrow wasn't one of our treasures. It was the Buddha, the elephant, Ivory Ballz, the silver coin and the Green Jade Hand. We stole BR's elephant charm the night you claimed your arrow got stolen.Long Con wrote:Did the Ivory Arrow do anything, or was it just a Celestial relic?

The arrow didn't do anything. I included a few of those because I didn't want it to be too obvious which of the treasures were the ones the Celestials were after.Long Con wrote:Eloh must have stolen my arrow.

Zomb had a lynch stop, so we were not concerned with her flipping, but she wasn't around, and come to find out, she hadn't adjusted her DST settings (I send the PM twice a year for a reason, people!), so I tried to save her anyway.

MacGuffinsMetalmarsh89 wrote:Is there a list of what all the items did?
Skull - Dead Role Check (once used, it can only check the same person)
Promissory Note (Can collect another player’s vote)
Rare Book (tells about tseng-ko)
It appears to be a book on botany and plant-derived drugs. One particularly interesting chapter tells of a mysterious drug called Tseng-Ko, which makes the imbiber highly suggestible, to the point that they will answer yes to any question put to them.
Silver Buddha
It is clearly of oriental design.
Clock
YOu can consult the clock once per Night to learn what time it is.
Green Jade Hand
It is clearly of oriental design.
Safe
Once per night, you can put something into, or take something out of the safe. The safe may only hold one item at a time, and items locked in the safe cannot be used until they are removed.
Stock Certificate (can be cashed in for votes)
Handkerchief (with a message on it regarding a plot twist)
You are surprised to find that there is a message written inside. It says:
"I know you two think this is very funny, masquerading as one another, but you're going to get found out eventually, and there will be Hell to pay. I advise you to give up the charade at once."
Telegram (info regarding a plot twist)
It is not addressed to you, and you really shouldn't read other people's communications, but you do anyway. It says: "Results of your genealogy test are in STOP Suspicions confirmed STOP You do indeed have a long lost twin STOP I look forward to reuniting you, longer message with details to follow."
Will (reward for killing one particular person)
Surprisingly, it belongs to Zomberella12. It reads: "Whosoever holds this will at the time of my death will receive my entire fortune.” That's a weird thing to put in your will, but don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Julu berries
Amber Necklace
It looks great on you!
Two-Headed Elephant charm
It is clearly of oriental design.
Silver Coin
It is clearly of oriental design.
Key (opens the safe) If you try to steal an item, you will be able to get into the safe or vault.
Ivory Arrow
It sure is pretty, but would probably break if you actually tried to fire it from a bow.
Ivory Ball
It is clearly of oriental design.
Ear tubes
They let you hear like the dickens! Every night, you will overhear part of a BTS conversation or a PM.
Bottle (contains an oriental drug tseng-ko that makes the person who takes it have to answer every question “yes.”)
a shiny new bottle.
Blowing dust off the label, you see that it contains a rare oriental drug called Tseng-ko, which causes extreme suggestibility when administered. Each night, you can give the drug to another player, and they will have to answer all questions the next day in the affirmative.
Nothing (the first person who vote for nothing gets nothing. All subsequent votes for nothing will get something, a piece of info on what an item does)

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
So, I read it as closer to what BF said than S~V~S. And I can see how it implies that the person named in the Will is rich - "entire fortune" sounds like an entire fortune. What was your angle, S~V~S, was this you trying to help the baddies on purpose?thellama73 wrote:Will (reward for killing one particular person)

By the way, your welcome TH (and SVS) for stating in thread what my item was and that it was Oriental.
Though it seems you may have figured it out anyway with the book.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
I thought it was closer to what I said
I had no agenda, I was just trying to paraphrase it. When Zomba tried to imply it exonerated her, if you recall, that was when I started to go after her. Until Golden convinced me she was not bad.

Re: Harry Stephen Keeler [ENDGAME]
The person named in the will was assigned randomly to Zombarella, and I was a little dismayed that BF shared that info with the whole thread and that it became taken as an indicator of Zomberella's guilt. I felt like I had painted a target on her back, which I had not intended to do. The point of the will was to give one player a private incentive to kill a particular person that may or may not have been consistent with their other goals. I was a little surprised at how eager everyone was to share details about their items. If I had to do it over again, I might have prohibited talking about them.
