At least that was my assumption. I'm trying to catch up on stuff I skimmed through earlier today and didn't feel any pressure to try to hurry at least?

I think the clock rolls, but I don't think it ever rolls past 24 hours.

LOL

figured i'd clarify that a bit just in case. still didn't reveal anything, and if the programmers just PM me i wouldn't have to reveal them so they'd stay hidden.

ntndeacon · 07-07-2009, 07:14 PM

I still am somewhat suspicious of Kwhit, but I guess it is time to work on saving myself a little more.
Unvote Kwhit
Vote PB

There is no fixed deadline. Whatever time we have our first lynch will then start the clock for the next lynch.

Beep, beep, beep...

Passacaglia · 07-07-2009, 07:36 PM

Don't believe his lies (hi Poli!) -- I'm pretty confident that we won't ever have a lynch after 9 PM Central.

PurdueBrad · 07-07-2009, 07:44 PM

8-8, sheesh!

Chief Rum · 07-07-2009, 07:44 PM

Hey everyone, work is done, play to begin.

I only work one job today. I had a previously scheduled trip to the golf course, though, so I am about to head out. I see I have drawn questioning due to my lack of posting. My apologies for that; it is indeed due to my work schedule, which I brought up near the start of the game (understandable if people missed that, I am used to people knowing my schedule can get hectic).

I will contact DT now and let him know what's up with me, and he can decide what he wants to do with it.

What exactly is the case for PB? Isn't he on some cross-country trip right now? And is the case for ntn just the quietness factor? I'm not sure I like either of those candidates.

I am going to go with KWhit to try to introduce a third candidate, although I suspect it won't make a difference. It's a bad spot to drop a vote, but I'm afraid I don't have a choice right now. I feel better putting up someone to give us more options than to have a hand in lynching someone I admit at this point I have not been able to read up enough in thread to make a really good case for. I will be catching up tonight after golf.

VOTE KWHIT

nfg22 · 07-07-2009, 07:47 PM

Im still undecided as well. keeping my vote on Kwhit.

Schmidty · 07-07-2009, 07:55 PM

I feel like somehow, the WW are manipulating this into a tie, and a no-lynch.

I don't think a no-lynch is possible is it? as soon as one player gets the proper percentage of votes they die without time for someone to tie it correct?

Right. And I think if the clock ticks and two people are tied with a large enough percentage, the next one to get a vote will get lynched (and, I assume, that if one gets an unvote, the other gets lynched).

In the second scenario you listed, I wonder if both of them die since technically they both have the required lynch percentage at that point?

Schmidty · 07-07-2009, 08:03 PM

Ahhh, gotcha. Thanks.

Doubtful, they would just wait for the tie to break I'd imagine.

Autumn · 07-07-2009, 08:13 PM

Oh I'm caught up now, I see you meant in game. I was wondering why you kept asking, lol

It seems to me it will be hard for the wolves to hide in this game, with us having DaddyT's role. He can orchestrate everything from behind the scenes and the wolves have no excuses to hide out. It will be interesting to see if this will balance out somehow.

Autumn · 07-07-2009, 08:14 PM

How many non-votes do we have? I'd like to see a lynch soon, I don't think it pays for us to let it hang for too long with no deadline. But I'd like everyone to have a chance to vote first.

nfg22 · 07-07-2009, 08:16 PM

Im out for a few hours...sorry I have had nothing to add...FWIW I have been keeping up...

Autumn · 07-07-2009, 08:28 PM

That said, what is the vote count, and who are you voting DT?

I have to say, this lack of a real deadline is kind of freaking me out.

DaddyTorgo · 07-07-2009, 08:28 PM

do you guys thing "every 36 hours" or "once every calendar week" is more likely to be true?

Autumn · 07-07-2009, 08:35 PM

I think it would depend on how powerful the ability is. I'm not sure I can guess otherwise. The calendar week sounds unusual, but this is kind of an unusual game so I wouldn't discount it entirely. For a more powerful action it might make sense.

DaddyTorgo · 07-07-2009, 08:35 PM

From the rules:

"Player actions are predicated by the passing of time, not days in the game. For example, a player may be able to use a power every 36 hours."

So if someone's trying to make up something, using the example given in the rules would be the safest bet in my opinion.

I do want to throw this out though, just because two people are claiming functionally similar roles doesn't necessarily mean there's something fishy. The broad classes of players (government officials, presidents and their wives, etc...) have quite a few characters in each spot. That means there could be some functional overlap.

I'm not saying it's a bad place to start, but just wanted to put that out there.

Sorry Kwhit, just a numbers thing, we need a lynch today. Hopefully you are bad
