I've read the pms
Rikae sent and received, so I guess I'm closest to both informed and unbiased. I'll try my best.
It started at the end of Day2.
Paranoia is used to count votes up to the deadline, but not right at the deadline, so my vote, which was going to decide a tie, was not counted. Nobody knew about this rule, so we all assumed things would be counted as usual. This caused some minor complaints on the admin thread, but nothing serious. More problematic was that he also revealed the role of the lynched player, but not who the lynched player was (we now had a tie)! This mistake still hasn't been corrected. Also, the narration indicated that on each Day, a wolf had been voted for.
Wolf-
Rikae complained about all this in a pm to the mod and received a problematic reply.
Paranoia tried to cheer her up quite elaborately (
Rikae was not in need of cheer, but in need of having her complaints be dealt with, so she was a bit annoyed) and in the course of it, he revealed a gifted's role to her (not saying any more than that, since the game is still officially going on). To be fair, he did clear up the narration-thing to her. However, what he also brought up was that he counted cobblers among the baddies, so a village with f.ex. 2 wolves, a cobbler, and 3 innocents would be a losing one, not one on its last Day. All of this clarification appeared only in the pm reply, not on the (admin-) thread.
With the extra knowledge about the gifted,
Rikae had no choice but to drop out in order to keep the game fair.
Boro and
I followed.
Paranoia has been missing since the pm to
Rikae (I'm not sure whether he even knows about her dropping out). We should be playing Day3 right at this moment.
