Glirdy, you're being quite see-through at the moment. Making lots of newbieish, green mistakes. You are visibly spiderish. We absolutely should lynch you right now.

Edit: Or, well, now you look better.

Hehehe, I noticed that myself actually. Guess I changed it after the last game and didn't think of looking before we started this one.

You call that a suspicions list, Glirdy? Ha!

This is a proper list, with the added bonus that it is more accurate.

Nienna- Just Nienna.
Lottie- Just Lottie.
Inzil- Spiderling in training!
Nog- Will be stung Night 3.
Bom- An enigma.
Wilwa- A brave little butterfly.
Nerwen- A sneaky dingo.
Glirdy- Doctor Who!
Boro- A stubborn wolverine.
Lhuna- Will be modfired for non-participation.
Shasta- The seer?!
Laura- I know her not.
Phantom- Evil. But not Shelob.

Really, the only problem I see is that my list does not include Shelob. But of course as the object is to lynch her.... hmmm....

I think the Moddess has some explaining to do. Make the object of the game lynching Shelob, and then don't give us one?! What kind of sick experiment are you running here?!

Though I suppose it's technically possible my list is wrong, but, well.... For now I'm going to assume I'm right.

Also, just to get people talking....

Talk about the merits of Samwise standing up and shouting "I'm Sam!!"

I mean- he can only be killed through lynching, right? So why not make himself unlynchable on Day 1 by declaring himself? Is that an acceptable trade-off for forfeiting the possibility of Shelob trying to sting him?

At this stage of the game there's absolutely no possibility of a counter-reveal, as only Shelob could do it and it would be suicidal, as then the village would simply lynch both claims to secure the win. Correct?

So....?

There shall be NO reveals, false or otherwise. Kthnxdie.

the phantom · 05-04-2011, 08:31 PM

Well that's a conversation killer. So... umm.... How about that Green Lantern trailer, eh? Looks like it's going to be pretty cool.

I reveal... That it's dark, and I'm very much afraid. Will someone hold my hand? No eight-legged creatures, please.

So, since we can never clear anyone based on how they've acted in the past (because they could have been stung in the meantime), we're going to have to rely a lot more on looking at how people's behavior changes each Day than how it fits together throughout the game in its entirety. So this game especially, it's really, really important for people to talk a lot on Day 1, and even if we don't accomplish anything, lay down a basic standard for comparing behavior the next Day. After all, only one person is evil toDay. Every Day after this, there's only going to be more. And, if we play our cards right, we could be able to tell who's switching sides mid-game.
