Abe, is Tyketime still in convalescence or is he fully healed?

I believe the healing is the last thing to happen (I think it came up when someone leveled to 2), so tyke would've healed 9 hps last night and thus I believe he's actually out.

[fontisian]

So, the three detectives (Chief Rum, Saldana and myself) are the closest to dead at the moment. The three of us could be concentrated on Investigating Paperwork for six units. That way, at least two people would have to be cultists on the other two actions to make them fail.

Though, britrock only has one more hp than me, so I wouldn't mind having him healed instead.

[fontisian]

That would also test the theory that only non-cultists are attacked.

[Autumn]

I should have kept track but I'm fairly certain everyone in the game has been injured at some point. JAG is the only person looking through the list that I don't necessarily recall having to heal.

I was just going to suggest the smae thing. Have all three detectives heal and do paperwork, that maximizes our workers.

[JAG]

I believe CF and I were among the first players injured. I know Chief put me in convalescence, though I don't think I've been injured since then.

One thing I was just thinking though...we may not have any idea if the people dying are cultists or villagers (other than ntn). If you look at page 1, it says they died but doesn't give an indication if they were cultists or villagers when they died. That might be because no cultists have died of course, but just throwing that thought out there.

[britrock88]

Sounds like you all are doing good work analyzing the RPG aspects of the game. I'm okay being convalesced or not, seeing that I'm probably the 3rd or 4th priority in that regard.

[Darth Vilus]

Am I still in convalescence? I don't remember

[Autumn]

You should be out by now, Darth.

[Autumn]

So I think we put the three detectives on that one task, then four of us on one and six of us on the other.

[Autumn]

Luckily this is a long weekend deadline, so hopefully we can get everyone signed up.

[Simbo Klice]

Sounds good to me.

Investigate Company Offices

[britrock88]

Okay, then.

Investigate Company Offices

One more on this one, then the 6 others on the other one.

[fontisian]

Investigate Paperwork

Actually, this is the one that needs 5 points to accomplish. The other one is the 3 pointer, going on the railroad.

That said, we may want to choose to do so because it will give GE more of a chance to put someone in than if we wait for the 8 hour stretch between quest deadline and lynch deadline, and it would probably help Danny out as well. So if the numbers work out, we should probably try to do so.

Also, CW wasn't on the damaged report, but he was listed as taking 6 damage, so we should put him on our unofficial list of the injured.

tyke isn't still in there - out with the extra HP gained form gaining a level increased the heal rate

You are out too

[Coffee Warlord]

You discover that they are, as suspected, Cultists who were shipped in. You find evidence in several locations of C&O receipts and free passes that were handed to them by the railroad. That cannot be a coincidence. Something is going on with the company and the Cultists. But what?

I don't wanna say I told you so....

Sigh, right you are. What a help I've been.

JAG and Danny are the only ones who haven't been injured since night 3, the night before either JAG or two of britrock, Autumn, Simbo, boo, saldana and myself sabotaged the quest action.

I AM IMMORTAL!!!!

As soon as I read that, I shook my head. Still, everyone started the game as good and there were still 25% of us that secretly worked for the railroad, so unless they secretly had a higher rate of conversion, I don't know exactly how that fits in.

[Autumn]

I assume the railroad are a third faction that have their own win conditions, perhaps, that don't necessarily conflict with the cultists.

[booradley]

Shit. I really wanted to get my scan in before something like this happened.

[Zinto]

I should be more active this week, last week was a little rough.


Investigate Company Offices

[GoldenEagle]

Alright, I should be much more active this week. Corporate brainwashing has been completed. What do we still need help with for the quest?

[tyketime]

I think this makes it the minimum five:

Investigate company office

[saldana]

i tried to use my scan during the last night phase, but booradley died before i could perform it, so i still have it.

i will be driving for 9 hours today, so i may check in during rest stops and stuff

[Abe Sargent]

processing time

[Abe Sargent]

Today you move out and get ready to investigate the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. You split up into three tasks.


The ones investigating the local offices quickly discover that all of the key information about the company that they need is in Charleston. Here are just dummy documents and boring stuff.


The local documents show that most of Thurmond belongs to the company, as you already knew. You also find some minor pieces of information, but nothing major.


However,r the task to Charleston is unsuccessful. There was not enough work to compete that task and so you are unable to find anything.



Tomorrow you'll have to try again.


Day Eight task failed.


Lynch deadline at 10

[JAG]

Coffee or Autumn is a cultist (or both), unless there's some other way cultists can screw up a task for us.

[JAG]

Yet again, if the reporter is out there, you can probably figure out which one by looking back through the thread, as each have been pretty open with their comments to date. Assuming you haven't already used all your examinations and actually have time to do so.

[Autumn]

Damn, well that's a bold move. Only three of us to choose from and someone fakes. Gut says that it would be CW - if he's converted since he was scanned he'll feel sure that he's the last of the three to get lynched. JAG's been putting a lot of work in for the village, but a cultist JAG is maybe hoping that will keep him around longer.

Do we think the first task was designed to be a dud, or does that indicate that it got meddled with? The second seems to have essentially taught us nothing as well. No indication that there wasn't "enough work" as in the third, but still a bit screwy that we get nothing out of any of the tasks.

[Autumn]

Looks like either Simbo or Coffee Warlord is on my healing list. I won't be healing CW at this point, so unless there was reason to do otherwise I'll be putting Simbo in convalescence.

[Autumn]

Another point not in CW's favor - after he read the book I believe was the human sacrifice. Abe had warned that bad things would happen if the cult got their hands on the book. No way of knowing what the mechanic is there, but possibly something circumstantial.

[britrock88]

We know CW's with the C&O already. I wouldn't be surprised if the endgame involves toppling that railroad in some respect, given the trains' importance to the town.

That said, what's the harm in keeping known baddies around? They can't coordinate; they can't do much more to thwart the group (that we know of) than by faking work...

[Coffee Warlord]

Sigh. No. It's still not me.

Both jobs that have failed have had me, JAG, and Autumn on it.

If you can assume the person who scanned me after that was on the level, I was not a cultist at that time. Meaning someone else in that list was. Now we have another failed task with 3 of the same people on it.

Yes, I could have been converted after that. I wasn't, but it's irrelevant in my point. Either JAG or Autumn, or both, is absolutely a cultist.

As far as the C&O goes, I don't think I'm actually PART of C&O, more just I'm being heavily paid by them.

For the reporter:
I have no idea what the motives of C&O are, nor am I, to my understanding, part of their work.

And Autumn...wouldn't I be like...dead if I was a human sacrifice?

My fear would be that they will gain additional abilites as they level up
