At this point its clear Sorsha is neither dead nor silenced so I kind of consider the question moot, since she was probably blocked by Mr Poe in any event.

I guess so. But I'd still like DF to say so, just in case there was something else going on in that particular circumstance.

Yours, because she could still have been blocked either way.

That's not to say an answer wouldn't be helpful. It would be. To both yours and Quin's questions.

And mine about whether its win dead or alive

Sorsha would have killed herself if she didn't know she would survive?

Dom wrote:Sorsha would have killed herself if she didn't know she would survive?

I mean, there was discussion of the two different civilian roles that could block her during the night...

And, who knows what else is going on.

One thing I'm very sure of, though, is that it doesn't matter what the explanation is for Sorsha being the kill target, she is the last baddie anyway.

If it matters to me, does it matter at all to you?

Absolutely. It's why I wanted to wait to vote, originally, until I was clear that you were 100% on board, not just 95%

Risky. Dom isn't actually a cleared civ by the logic I think you're following.

That you will think through your vote rationally rather than following blindly.

The more specific meaning was that Quin was misunderstanding my logic.

1) If a team only has one member left, can that member use their role power (like a block) + a kill at the same time?

Yes and yes.

Repeat of my earlier question as well:

If a role blocker were to role block the PoIG, what would be the result if that person tried to kill somebody but also role blocked the initial role blocker first?

If someone tried to block the PoIG, PoIG's actions for the night would fail. If that's what you're trying to say.

Posted: **Mon Jan 09, 2017 12:41 am**

DF, I think Quin is asking about order of blocking. If two blockers blocked each other, who wins?

Then it would come down to first block sent in.

votes sorsha

I very much hope that it won't.

Posted: **Mon Jan 09, 2017 2:09 am**

.... it would be the same result.

let's say poe blocks a killer/blocker

and that killer blocker then sends in a pm killing and blocking herself

but she's blocked

so nothing happens.

Day 7 - The End

To the beachgoers, it seemed like just yesterday that they had come so close to meeting fiery ends on the beach. In actuality, it was six days earlier, and their journey had since taken them from the shores of Lake Lachrymose to the heart of The City. The final stage of their journey was approaching with all the speed of the submarine which currently housed them.

"Aye! Land ahead! Batten down the hatches! All hands on deck! Thar she blows!" the captain excitedly gestured. The beachgoers, as part of his crew, helped steer the vessel onto the beach of a lush (a word here meaning "containing many trees and assorted other foliage [a word here meaning "lush vegetation]") island. Several friendly-looking people stepped forward to greet the beachgoers.

"Welcome home, Ishmael," said one of them. "We feared you had left us forever."

"Call me Ish," said MP. "And I would never leave you. I simply ventured to the mainland to encourage others in joining our community. I didn't force them, but I found two more who wanted to come along." At that, Daisy crawled forward alongside Quin, each smiling the smile of true believers.

"Sunny, how could you?" asked Sig tearfully. "What would Klaus think? Or our parents?"

"Quin, how could YOU?" asked Jack irritatedly. "Joining cults is against the Village rules!"

"They're with me now," said MP calmly. Now, I suggest you all leave the Island if you won't join us. I don't want to force you, but I would advise not posing a nuisance."

"Hey!" shouted Dom, finally making his presence felt. "We still haven't found the last killer. I'm not leaving until I do!"

"I say, that's a very good point," agreed Golden, coughing into his handkerchief. "The killer must be brought to justice!"

"And I want revenge for my sister!" said DDL, grabbing Sorsha and dragging her to the water. Sorsha flailed and fought back, running inland and finding a grove of apple trees. Sig, DDL, Golden, and Dom found her and moved in to end this debacle (a word I assume you are familiar with).

"At least let me eat an apple before I go," she pleaded, grabbing an apple. Before she could take a bite, however, Sorsha began choking and fell to the ground.

"I poisoned you on the submarine," said Dom. "Everyone always says I need to stand up for myself, so I figured poisoning was a good first step."

Sorsha reached for the apple, which would cure a certain illness but not the one she currently had. This proved irrelevant, as she collapsed before reaching it anyway. Her androgynous frame landed with a crash on the floor of the grove, ending the Troupe's era of villainy once and for all.

The quartet returned to the beach solemnly.

"Captain, take us home," said DDL. Widdershins started up the Queequeg, and the four headed for home. For DDL, home meant finding his long lost brother. For Golden, this meant returning to the bank in the City. For Dom, this meant moving on after finding out that his wife had been a villain, and had then been dead. And for Sig, this meant finding somewhere to belong, without his siblings for support.

In other news, Daisy and Quin remained on the Island with MP, who continues to advise (a word by which MP here means "boss around") them in his "happy" "community" "."

Finally, Jack decided that it was time to go back to the Village of Fowl Devotees. After spending several months stuck on the Island with the community, he noticed a passing shadow in the water, resembling a question mark. Jack decided to swim out to it, but was intercepted by a stray flying machine, which coincidentally was set on a default course to the Village of Fowl Devotees. Jack returned safely and celebrated with the rest of the villagers.

And so, as all good stories must, this one ends with the eating of ice cream sundaes.

Sorsha has been lynched. She was the Person of Indeterminate Gender.
The Troupe has been eliminated.
Congratulations to the civvies and the Village of Fowl Devotees!

Good work guys. Shame it happened just after I left work with my spreadsheet. ill try to recreate it later but it's challenging by phone.

Inh - I didn't kill you! Eloh redirected me, and saved her husband in doing it (I was hoping to silence epi rather than kill him to let him know my role)

Zodiac, Mad Max and this.

The thing is, if sorsha hadn't been lynched, I would have been forced to try to kill jack - I couldn't remove the townie numbers nor risk being at 8 tomorrow with only 3 cultists still not wanting the game to end, and potentially no dom to give us a vote advantage either...

If I killed jack, it would have fixed the risk profile. But it would have deprived jack and lc of the win. I really didn't want to have to do that.

You wouldn't have been able to anyway, if we'd made it to another night I'd given Jack the protection for the night.

Good game fellow civs! I did nothing to share in this win with you, but I was following along the entire time and would have been of no use. Absolutely astounded with the teamwork over the past few days. I still thought sig was bad.

Lol. lot of luck with the baddie teams killing each other and Mr. POE being a saint. GG town, and good try there at the end, cultists, you almost had it!!

Also who's the wise guy that killed me N1? I'm the only one listed without a killer receipt.

Maybe i committed seppuku because of my uselessness.
