Hmmm....I don't know if the passages mean much of anything.

Strictly speaking about Merchant....Shylock was a Jew, and in the days of Shakespeare, Jews and Christians essentially practiced segregation. Perhaps RendeR selected this passage to identify himself as something other than the rest of us? |

I must noodle on this. And I want to see what else RendeR does.
Unvote RendeR |

That's right. I thought Shylock was anti-semitic, but it's the play as a whole that has been criticized for that by virtue of the portrayal of Shylock. I think at this point I'm leaning towards "Render and/or Jackal are just messing with us". As for being different, it appears we all have abilities and are slightly different creatures in our own right. |
Aight, I'm outta here - see y'all sometime closer to deadline.

" To die is to be a counterfeit, for he is but the counterfeit of
a man who hath not the life of a man; but to counterfeit dying, when a man thereby liveth, is to be no counterfeit, but the true and perfect image of life indeed. The better part of valor is discretion, in the which better part I have sav'd my life." |

Alright, I stated my reasons for this vote prior - Render is at least interesting, probably something useful for such a severe downside. DT and ntn I haven't gotten to play with in a long while, and Pass I got to play with a lot in the last game and some in Spawn - sorry man, diversity of experience.

Vote RendeR And just an FYI - the deadline is 7pm my time. That's right in the middle of dinner so I may not be around for it tonight. |
Qwik used to role play all the time, and I enjoyed it. KWhit had his whole thing in the cruise game and was good. I did a whole routine, slightly less erudite than what RendeR has done, and was a good guy. Seemingly meaningless, I still think it's going to make it hard to pin anything to him. I will point out that in both cases the role play went far beyond what was required.

But on this most auspicious of nights, permit me then, in lieu of the more commonplace sobriquet, to suggest the character of this dramatis persona. Roilà! In Riew, a humble Raudevillian Reteran, cast Ricariously as both victim and Rillain by the Ricissitudes of Fate. This Risage, no mere Reneer of Ranity, is a Restige of the Rox populi, now Racant, Ranished. However, this Ralorous Risitation of a by-gone Rexation, stands RiRified and has Rowed to Ranquish these Renal and Rirulent Rermin Ran-guarding Rice and Rouchsafing the Riolently Ricious and Roracious Riolation of Rolition. The only Rerdict is Rengeance; a Rendetta, held as a Rotive, not in Rain, for the Ralue and Reracity of such shall one day Rindicate the Rigilant and the Rirtuous. Rerily, this Richyssoise of Rerbiage Reers most Rerbose, so let me simply add that it's my Rery good honor to meet you and you may call me RendeR. [/end scooby doo voice] |

Guys, have we given any thought to the fact that RendeR is the minotaur and thus any votes on him aren't going to matter (he can't be lynched)? I can't see another play that would bring this type of attention.
|
interesting thought PB
|
Taking the bull by the horns......so to speak?
|
Ok, let's break this three-way tie.
VOTE PASSACAGLIA |
And the wiley wench wends her way whence we were wandering...
|
To reverse my previous statement some, is there value in voting RendeR to verify it? I might be able to see some as it means we don't have to scan him and we don't have to worry the rest of the game about who it is, we just have to avoid him (although that depends on how much, if any, info we get on who is around us). I'm game for testing it if we see value in it.
|
"See, I'm not a monster...I'm just ahead of the curve."
|
That's actually a decent thought, PB.
|
Well, I'm going to lead with my own thinking then.
unvote Claphamsa vote RendeR |
"You won't kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness, and I won't kill you, because you're just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever."

"It's ironic, but until you can free those final monsters within the jungle of yourself, your life, your soul is up for grabs."
Sorry, wanted to play too. |

I say RendeR is not the minotaur since he temporarily stopped his Shakespeare stuff when it seemed that he might get lynched. The minotaur has little to lose, I feel, by being exposed early.

we don't move again at 10, do we?

At least we know. But I'm not so convinced that Render is doing anything other than screwing around, so I'm sticking where I am for now -- besides, vote switches are what get people killed anyway. |

" 'Greater good?' I am your wife! I'm the greatest *good* you are ever gonna get!" That's my favorite line of the whole movie. Obviously. :p |
The Invincibles quotations, along with the Joker references, make me think even more that RendeR is the minotaur.

"We really should stop fighting, we'll miss the fireworks!" |
Quote:
The minotaur is a known invincible. Only possible way to kill it (and not get killed on our way to the center) is for an Ancient/Wolf to be able to kill it. I'm not sure whether or not it's possible to make it to the center without running into the Minotaur. |
Quote:
Hmmm....the Minotaur can't be lynched or night killed. And I'm guessing the Ancients wouldn't kill him, as he's their tool. |
Sorry, RendeR, it's too close for comfort -- I've got to reveal. I'm the Alchemist.

Interesting development, a hit and run reveal followed by a "save my own ass" vote change.......

My vote stands. not that changing it will make a difference. I am not your target ladies and gentleman. Your self interest in your sanity has cloued your better judgement.
