If it's worth anything, I've seen Twin Peaks in full so I might be able to shed light on certain bits of stuff in this game when it comes up

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Everything is in order today. I shall remain in my present position. This is my final allowed post of the first day phase.

I shat in your corn flakes if you know what I mean.

[Marmot]

I will ascend to the highest form of the Sea Slug in Phase 2. The other players wish to achieve this as quickly as I.

Who is to say that being voted for will reap negative consequences? In this game left is right, up is down, day is night, sun is moon!

I do not wish to be voted for.

[Spacedaisy]

Two things.

1. I have no clue what is going on and I'm pretty sure that is exactly the way it is supposed to be. I went out on a limb and just voted for myself.

2. Google chrome keeps asking if I need this page translated every time I come in this thread. I enjoy this immensely.

DAY 0

T * O * P * S * E * C * R * E * T

FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION. PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA

INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM

DATE: 2 - 15 - 1988

FROM: SAM STANLEY, Agent

TO: GORDON COLE, Regional Bureau Chief

Dear Agent Cole,

After my colleague and brief partner, Special Agent Chester Desmond's disappearance, I find it necessary for me to put on the FBI record my knowledge of the occurrences surrounding this event. We were in the more-than-a-little-bit odious town of Deer Meadow, Washington in order to investigate the death of Teresa Banks, a waitress at Hap's Diner, a place I recommend staying far away from if you're ever in the area and need a bite to eat. There were two exceedingly odd things about her body that were revealed in the preliminary autopsy conducted by Agent Desmond and I: a small piece of paper with the letter "T" imprinted on it found under her fingernail, and a mark on her ring finger indicating a missing ring of some kind. We visited Miss Banks' place of residence, the Fat Trout Trailer Park, run by the amiable Mr. Carl Rodd, to look for clues in her domicile. The only relevant thing we managed to find was a picture of her, in which she prominently displays a gold ring with some sort of green gemstone attached. At this point, we ran into some problems with the local law enforcement, personified by a Sheriff Cable and a Deputy Cliff Howard who seemed to, if I may be so forward, have some particular reason to not want any government agenices poking around their town. After a bit of a fracas over whether or not we could move Miss Banks' body to Portland for further investigation, Agent Desmond and I parted ways. I was to head back to Portland with the body immediately, lest any more complications arise, and he intended on returning to the Fat Trout Trailer Park to see if there was anything we missed. I asked him if this visit was connected to the ██████████, but he ignored that request, and instead mentioned the missing ring.

That was the last time I saw him. I understand that you'll be sending another agent out there to investigate the disappearance, and I want him to know as much as possible so that hopefully we can identify Agent Desmond's location and fate.

With great respect,



It is now Day 1. You have 24 hours to decide where to go.

[speedchuck]

I've always wanted to go to Portland?

(are our options going to be in a poll or anything?)

[Spacedaisy]

I voted for the trailer park

[DharmaHelper]

I'm hungry. And also... ready.

[lapluie]

camping in the great ol woods

[speedchuck]

Hungry

[Enrique]

[Enrique]

Let's rock?

[Enrique]

Long Con, come to the Roadhouse with me.

[nutella]

.......wait that other poll was day 0? lol k


is the roadhouse good?

[Enrique]

A few important things happen there, several important clues are found there, a lot of great performances. We should probably get people on every location, and there sure is interesting stuff everywhere, but I'm pretty satisfied with my decision to go to the Roadhouse.

[nutella]

k I'll go there but LC should join us nobody else nab the 3rd slot

[nutella]

it's the cool club

[Enrique]

You're welcome company.

[DharmaHelper]

Wow what a fun [REDACTED} to this [REDACTED]. I have to admit I was initially [REDACTED] but [REDACTED] {REDACTED] and now there's just one more [REDACTED] I have to [REDACTED]. Before I forget, [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] you all.

Hopefully the Diner is as [REDACTED] as I think it will be.

[JaggedJimmyJay]

Okay. Let's go to the roadhouse. Okay. I'm in. I'm in, boys.

[MacDougall]

The Woods seems like a safe place to be. I'll go there.

[Enrique]

Okay. Let's go to the roadhouse. Okay. I'm in. I'm in, boys.

Could I convince you to check out the Palmer House instead? If we want to save Laura we're gonna need some people there.

[MacDougall]

So I am guessing that given we aren't lynching and the game ends at the end of day 7 that the aim is to survive to the end of the game moreso than to actually "get" the bad guys (for vanilla townies at least). This poll might more of a "don't go where the people you suspect are because they will kill you overnight if you are in the same location as them", dealio.

[MacDougall]

So on that note I am going to the Palmer House and everybody stay the hell away from me.

[MacDougall]

Okay. Let's go to the roadhouse. Okay. I'm in. I'm in, boys.

Could I convince you to check out the Palmer House instead? If we want to save Laura we're gonna need some people there.

Trying to lure Jimmy to his demise I see.

[MacDougall]

If I am correct in my absolute guess here, then the mechanism might be;

Each night area has a BTSC. Anyone who goes there can talk.
Mafia can only kill someone who is where they are.
If they kill someone who is where they are, then anyone else there is notified of it (but can't infodump).

[MacDougall]

Also if someone dies in a location it probably leaves behind a "clue" as to who did it.

[MacDougall]

Colin why did you choose the location you chose?

Enrique why did you ask Long Con and then Jay to go where you were going?

[Enrique]

Okay. Let's go to the roadhouse. Okay. I'm in. I'm in, boys.

Could I convince you to check out the Palmer House instead? If we want to save Laura we're gonna need some people there.

Trying to lure Jimmy to his demise I see.

You mean by sending him to where according to your own theory of game mechanisms, only you could kill him?

linki: I asked Long Con to go where I am going because I am interested in solving this game and Long Con may be useful for that. I asked the opposite of Jay because we want 3 people per location and nutella already signed up for this trip.

I wasn't there when you asked him to go where you were planning to go. That is obvious if you read the posts. I didn't even say I was going there until way after you asked him to. So why you lyin?

[Enrique]

I know what order things happened in. But say, if Jay actually went and followed you to the Palmer House, say he wakes up dead tomorrow, whose fault would it be?

[MacDougall]

What is the point of this question?

[novaselinenever]

hiii @novaselinenever

Hello partner in crime !

[MacDougall]

You tried to send him to the Palmer House.
I went there because nobody else was there at the time.

Mutually exclusive things.

You probably tried to lure Long Con to 86 him because as you say, he is capable of breaking the game, and that wouldn't benefit you. You also probably wanted Jay far away so that Jay wouldn't get wise to it. Nutella is likely an unfortunate bystander.

If Jay tries to follow me to the Palmer House I am going to go somewhere else and hopefully nobody follows. I have no interest in hanging out with any strange Twin Peaks looking motherfuckers at night in this game. You can have your game experience of spending time with one another. Right now my gut is telling me to stay away from everybody.

[novaselinenever]

Just caught up and I have no idea what's going on. I was on here for a brief moment D0 and voted Dharmahelper. I didn't like one of his posts. Sketchy vibes.

[Enrique]

Visiting creepy old houses on your own is an odd survival strategy but you do you.

Nobody truly has any idea and INH has made a point of encouraging us to try to figure it out. I've made my best guess so far and I am going to play as though it is correct until I have reason to believe I am wrong.

So I am guessing that given we aren't lynching and the game ends at the end of day 7 that the aim is to survive to the end of the game moreso than to actually "get" the bad guys (for vanilla townies at least).

Creepy old houses are safe places when they're empty.

[mention]insertnamehere[/mention] will the results of the last Twin Peaks game have any bearing on this game? I know you're sort of looking at this as a trilogy, so is the old game worth looking at?

Putting myself back in the timeline of FWWM after the first game, I would think the goal here is to save Laura. Since we don't know the roles, I don't know if it's something much simpler like just somehow getting rid of Jacques or Leo or whatever. I'm approaching this as a puzzle, though, and I'm not sure this game is as much about finding "baddies" as fulfilling very specific conditions (what with no lynches and whatever).

I think there will probably be an element of "finding baddies" in that there will certainly be baddies in the game. It's just not so much lynching them, at least today. For now I am just going to try to survive. The lynch poll is generally the best place to start looking for clues and we have a poll so hence why I am presuming that there is motivation for the scum to use it to their benefit, otherwise day 1 would just be pointless without a lynch.

[Enrique]

All of that sounds right to me, but I don't think civilians should play as if at the mercy of the scum. I have my own strategic motivations and I can't know for sure if they'll pay off, but I do want to do a little more than hiding.
