I'll be perfectly honest. Unless bea is able to do a night post tonight, then it isn't going up tonight. I have an evaluation/test with work tomorrow, and I'm spending tonight trying to study for that and finish everything I need to finish for tomorrow. So I know there is no way I'm going to be awake long enough to do a night post. Plus I have to allow myself 2 hours to drive to the store that is hosting it (because it's over 40 miles away and traffic in and around Cincinnati is gridlocked sometimes in the morning).

Tl;dr: No night post tonight unless bea is able to do it. Otherwise, it won't come until tomorrow evening I'm afraid.

Hello, all! Checking in so I don't get too behind. Yay good result! Bye bye, daleks!

Just to address concerns, I'll be perfectly honest - my vote for Roxy wasn't on super-strong suspicion for her. As I had been reading Chris and people's responses/proddings throughout the day, I'd been feeling more and more like he was good and trying to defend himself (and unfortunately looking floundery/desperate while doing it). By the evening, I stated I was going back and forth on it, but in the end really felt in my gut that lynching him would be the wrong decision, and thought that the way to make my vote count towards what I believed was by voting Roxy, who had votes and who had people making decent points against her (which, as we can see now, were rightful suspicions). I could be horribly, horribly wrong, but I think Chris is good, and I acted on that conviction. We'll see how it plays out.

I'm happy to answer anything else It might not be tonight (again, I'd like to read instead of staring at a screen for hours, as I do it for a good part of my day at work), but I will get to it (especially since Russian porn virus has now been eradicated from work computer! Ypa!).

Also, all of those options look delicious, but man do I love a good breakfast burrito with plenty of hot sauce. You should totally eat that, and then a crunchy salad.

I will do my darndest to get everything taken care of as quickly and as promptly and as close to the scheduled 11:30 est time as I can. I'm currently working on my resume for a super quick job opportunity that I just found out about and don't want to miss. I'm on a tight time schedule there as well. I'm still waiting on a few pm's and I've got roughly a half hour till night ends - so I'll be as fast as I can, but to be honest, if anyone's trying to decide if they should stay up or go to bed, the answer is always go to bed. It'll be here in the morning.

So we went on an awesome field trip today! It was to a corn maze with other things like very tall tube slides, a huge jumping pad, playgrounds, hay ride, animals, pumpkin patch, a corn house (seriously, a house FULL of corn kernals. Kind of like a sand box or a ball pit, but CORN about two feet deep....it was SO very cool. I know it sounds weird, but you have not experienced all the good things in life until you have laid in two feet of corn kernals.) Anyway....and we saw llamas. We told the kids we had to take a picture with the llamas and show Logan hehe. So..I will be posting that as soon as Epi allows me to use him computer

Excuse my wife. She seldom gets out.

Meanie Head!

For those that care (you'll have to friend request me first though - https://www.facebook.com/Tasha.Brown198 ... ploaded=75 Scroll down for corn maze pics.

Elochin, have you got any thoughts on the game?

juliets wrote:Elochin, have you got any thoughts on the game?

Honestly, I have been majorly busy and have not been keeping up like I wish I could. However, I still think Dana is bad. I've posted my reasons and others have stated theirs as well. I also have this gut ping that Epi is bad (sorry Epi) but have no evidence to back it up b/c he is playing a very civ-like game.

Thanks Elo.

The correct answer here is beef kebobs. You're just getting back to eating solid foods. I feel like you could drink a breakfast burrito through a straw if you really had to, but there's no substitute for beef.

I don't really like beef though. I like fish and vegetables.

Yes another reason I left that city.

What do you think of Roxy's accusations against you?

Chris wrote:The MM lynch was the one that ended early.

If Epig is with MP, that lynch could have been a choice of picking the lesser of the two evils with MP. Or it could have just been a matter of it ending early and screwing up any possible plans.

I highly suggest you all re-read MP with the mind that he could be The Master, and that Roxy and MM were both recruited.

It starts to look very interesting.

Then remember the people vouching for MP or intereacting with MP a lot. LC, Epig, SVS... all people I'd recruit if I was a recruiting Indy killer.

I'm not making a case that he is The Master. I need someone else's view on the possibility. Someone who is not LC, Epig, SVS, or Hedgie please.

I think, in order for MP to be a civ, he can only be one role. And it doesn't make much sense that people would be saying they think he's a civ based on anything role related.

Black Rock, you were targeted. What do you think of the possibility that MP is The Master?

I just saw this on a reread. I am very confidant that MP is a civvie and I even have him pegged as a role. I don't think he is the Master.

Why do you think MP is civ?

Three reasons. First, he has a distinct tell when he's bad. Second, his instance that people lynch him? MP doesn't do gambits like that. He wants to prove something. I believe that. Third, I usually suck at decoding those puzzles on the front page, but I decoded three of them enough to cement the idea in my mind.

How do you feel about publicizing them, Epig? I feel confident enough that the baddie team probably has enough of it done already, given the amount of time it took to decode what I did.

Long Con wrote:How do you feel about publicizing them, Epig? I feel confident enough that the baddie team probably has enough of it done already, given the amount of time it took to decode what I did.

Eh, I only did three, and two of those are obvious (though they weren't at first to me when I tried). I was convinced I wouldn't be any good at them but I sat down for a bit and worked some words out. I was proud of myself. Anyway, I don't know what all is in there, and so I would leave that to the judgment of others.

All I'm saying is that I can put 2 and 2 together regarding what I DID work out.

Ok, here's what I have for The Ood.

If you are targeted by a baddie, there is a fifty percent chance of you entering a ----e---- [different? missing 'e'?] name and redirecting their night action back onto them. This does not include nightkills.

I think this is good for each Civvie to know because maybe someone has targeted someone else and seen it affect a different player... Then that Civvie could say "hey, I trust them, they're the Ood!"

"Different" is the only thing that makes sense.

LC, I see no problem publicizing them at this point; the baddies have BTSC, civvies generally do not. I think it'll do more good than harm, so I look forward to seeing what you have. I've been working on them just a bit myself, and I have a few mostly figured out, but I'm not very good at decoding.

The 'e' is in the correct place. There are no missing letters for that word.

Ok, here's the other one I have so far, The Doctor. Still not sure about the missing parts, obviously.

If he finds one companion, his vote is permanently doubled. If he finds two companions, any votes against him count as one/half. If he finds three companions, he gains the ability to create a -a- -- --n---ne --- a-- -----e-. No Civvies can be lynched the following day period, and any night a----t--e- --e- -- -a---e- -- the -n-- will not affect Civvies the following night period. Also, given he is a Time Lord, he can regenerate. If he is killed, he will regenerate (come back to life) after the following night period ends.

Ok, here's Rory Williams:

Any negative night actions directed at Amy will be absorbed by Rory, up to and including nightkills. However, given Rory's bravery and fortitude, he shrugs off the first nightkill attempt directed at either himself or Amy.

Some assumptions made on s0ome words, but I think this looks pretty good.

Has anyone solved Clara's already? Because I basically got that one:

as the 'Impossible Girl', she may -n---en-e the timeline of the game and end one night early

Jesus! There's NK protections left and right!

Looks good to me! Updating it on the main page and then I'm going to bed.

And Clara's too. 'Influence' is the correct word there.

Your entire case against me is built around the notion that I am a role checker or that I am on a team with a role checker. Therefore the only way this statement makes any sense is if you are bad.

Epig, can you explain what you mean by this? I am confused.

Roxy believes that I am a role checker or that I am on a team with a role checker, i.e., a Cyberman. I'm not, but she believes I am. Very well.

She says that if you think I'm civilian then vote for her. She guarantees that after she's dead you will lynch me next.

Now then, if Roxy gets lynched and is civilian, does that provide credence for her claim that I am a role checker or on a team with one? No. For her claim against me to have any merit whatsoever, she has to be bad.

To summarize it:

Roxy: Epignosis has to be a role checker or on a team with a role checker. That's how he knew Enrique was bad. If anyone disagrees with me, then lynch me, and then you'll see that I'm right.

I think you are purposefully taking Roxy literally when she clearly meant something else, tbh.

Clearly? Then please tell me what she meant. Because I'm not seeing it.

I read this as more of a figure of speech for Roxy. I was 100% wrong about Roxy, but I read this as Roxy saying, "OK lynch me, then lynch Epig". I felt it was empty rhetoric to strengthen a "case".
I can understand your concern, but it's misguided and incorrect.

Not a surprising night. I mean, MP and LC were both targeted.

I am very interested to hear from Sabie, I really think Roxy did know some things and was throwing it out there before she died. What do you think about that Epig? It's hard for me to mistrust you right now but I have no reason to trust you either.

RIP MP.

Very interesting about LC. That's what, 4 currently living players who have been targeted for NKs? I'm betting both the Cyber Controller and the Master are among them.
