Cronin: You stated no money enters or leaves the game. Is this true for Swaggs and SnDvls as well? Did their killers become richer?

Yep, was kind of fun.

It would be helpful so that I don't duplicate yours. Even if you were to post a list of two or three, I could likely find a good candidate outside of that grouping.

Heh, as a night shift person, it's funny for me to see the break in posting, obvious as it is. Normally, I'm at my serving day job so I am not here to see it.

Not yet. I am still open to changing it if some new info arises, but I wanted to get a PM into st.cronin just in case I don't get a chance later. I don't want us to miss an arrest again today.

I'm not terribly happy about my choice, though, because I don't have a very strong negative feeling about anybody at this point. But FYI, the choice is one of the UTR folks.

I'm kind of in a lull as to what to observe/look at next, to be honest.

Withholding my vote on Bullet for the time being, as I feel awfully hypocritical voting for him when I was in pretty much the same boat yesterday. At the same time, he hasn't done much of anything to defend himself.

Sort of in a holding pattern for everything else till something new comes up to chat about. I'm out of thoughts right now.

I sent in a conditional arrest order (not sure if cronin views this as legal yet or not). It was something like this:

Arrest Joe Blow unless Barkeep also chooses to arrest him. If so, then arrest Jane Doe.

i feel like i've been very helpful so far this game. at least given that it's a massive game with confusing mechanics. but if you all want to arrest me and toss me off the rock, go ahead. i just ask all loyal senators to watch carefully and see how things line up when you do that...who votes where. There could very well be a wolf (maybe the 2nd person pushing for me, 1st would be pretty bold, but 2-3 is usually a safe place to hide) in the beginning, and there will prolly a wolf or two in the middle, and then I'd expect one or two to stay away altogether, maybe even to try to defend me.

least that's how i'd play it if i was king of the wolves

Call be crazy and paranoid, but I get a massive traitor trying to cover his ass vibe out of this.

[DaddyTorgo]

VOTE THROW BULLET FROM THE ROCK

it's been said before. hasn't been very helpful. very much pissed me off (when i was the damm seer and needed him!) in the cold war game. so it's meta-game on that level, but i'd also rather we kill him if he's quiet, to avoid the wolves who killed him potentially getting that huge cash windfall. although leaving him alive for the wolves to kill we could watch to see who jumped in wealth (odds are that they'd jump a lot i guess)

as for consul votes, has anyone been put forward? i submit myself...fat lot of good that'll do i'm sure with alan and CR and hoops leading a charge against me...but i'd serve if elected.

[KWhit]

There's no consul election today.

lol...leading a charge? Can't speak for the others, but I mentioned you as an arrest possibility not first, not second, but seventh, on a tier below main people I am looking at. If that is a charge, then LSG and bullet must feel like I am a rhino.

3. Autumn - looking to level financial playing field (post #71), asked about system where we don't pick who we sue (post #100). Did you get a horseman from Day 1 bid? (post #155)

I'm just catching up, and I'll probably post a few times. I just wanted to reply to this one:

I didn't get a horseman from the bid. We know (supposedly) who won both of those bids. I bid on the second horseman listed I remember.

Secondly, given that it seems the traitors may have won bids on two of the services (if we go with the theory that that's how they made their kills), leveling the fianncial playing field with lawsuits might still be a good idea. If the field is level, wealthy traitors wouldn't have an advantage. They would have to rely on whatever random factor solves bids between equal Senators. Maybe that's a bad idea, I don't know, but it seems it would help. Unless we know that hte wealthy people are loyal, whcih we don't.

And I suggested randomizing lawsuits because once again, we don't know whether the results of a suit (treasonous information coming out) are public. If not, the traitors could arrange to sue each other and avoid evidence coming out. I have a feeling that might have happened looking at some of the suit records.

lol oh. still...wouldn't it make sense to start talking about it so we have more of a idea about it earlier?

oh it just came from RL putting me in a pissy mood

[bulletsponge]

ok finaly finished the 4 pages of reading. it seems my fate is sealed.

someone wanted to know what i did night 1. i did buy someones services and found out something that would make me very useful to the romans, being rich and outbidding anyone for that service every night.

it's been said before. hasn't been very helpful. very much pissed me off (when i was the damm seer and needed him!) in the cold war game

hehe DT im pretty sure i told everyone that killing me would be a big mistake in that game. for a seer you should have seen that coming. ironically my role is is very similar in this game as that, but once again yall want to kill me.

Go ahead and kill the wealthiest roman, i wont be the one regreting it later in the game ( my ghost will be laughing).

[bulletsponge]

dola

i shoul note that ive been at work past 2 days so i havnt been in posting much, and besides it isnt like yall are shooting the shit enough for all of us

[hoopsguy]

Bullet, there is no edge to be gained right now (I don't think) from taking Day 1 info to your grave if you are in fact a Roman and not a Tarq.

So - spill it!

I agree. I'm not home much longer, but if what you say is true I'm willing to try and save you so you can indeed keep a good power out of the bad guy's hands.

[bulletsponge]

i dont know. ive never "spilled it" about my role or what ive learned in any other game. id hate to start now

[Poli]

You could always try to hire me...hiring me obviously would help sway votes...as it worked for CW. You need to sway others if you're interested, though.

Their families have inherited their estates. Someday their young sons hope to enter politics, and will need some seed money.

[Peregrine]

Well Bullet, you're probably doomed, but if you're loyal, there's no reason not to tell us about the service from Day 1.

On another note, I'm going to follow up on my earlier comments about LoneStarGirl with a lawsuit. Personally I'd like to see her arrested also. There's quiet, and there's way too quiet.

Peregrinus sues Lonestarus Girlus

[Tyrith]

Bullet, there is zero value to you dying with what you know. You have at least a slight chance of convincing us if you talk.

[Coffee Warlord]

Vote Execute Bulletus Spongium Mysterio Rolius

Unless he comes out with more than a mysterious 'I'm Important' line.

what is the value in this if you are playing a game as part of a team...you know that you cant always live forever...everyone has to die at somepoint, and if you really are part of the team, you should tell us what could help us.

[hoopsguy]

And how has that worked out for you in the past? Seriously, the game is more fun as you get later in the game and as your actions have more impact on the outcome. Is it really fun dying with a good role early in a game where you could have prevented it by collaborating with people?

In a semi-related note, what part of WW is fun for you as a villager if it isn't trying to figure out a chain of events and drive through the wolf deception?

I like the social interaction, figuring out funky rules. I'm not into the actual game game. I want to win because I'm competitive and that comes natually, but that's not why I play, at least.

Are you suggesting they may return?

I believe my suit against Swagg's family should be heard.

No, just having fun with the setting.

[Poli]

I still believe my suit should be heard.

[Poli]

Don't make me hire a lawyer. Wait. Never mind.

[Mustang]

Vote Execute Bulletus Spoogus..

Although, per my past note, I still don't know for a 100% why everyone is nominating him. (Takes awhile to weed through 18 pages....)

Yeah, I'm a night guy too. I work from like 10 p.m. - 4-5 a.m. depending on press start and run. I come home and sleep until my wife leaves for work (usually somewhere between 10 a.m. - noon), and then I watch my daughter all day.

This game has been confusing as can be, since I just don't see any rhyme or reason for 90% of what's going on, and I don't have a lot of time to banter.

I'm counting this vote, although do try and bold all votes in the future.

Abeus Anxietius sueth Schmidityus Schmidityus

He's at a higher bracket than me, and it was at random after that. I rolled a die.

Tit for tat.

Schmidityus Schmidityus sues Abeus Anxietius

[Poli]

By the way, Schmidty, in case you don't know, you're the 2nd best lawyer now.

[Schmidty]

Vote execute Bulletus Spongeus

[Schmidty]

Why isn't st.cronin posting a different color? It's making it f'ing difficult for me to sort through things.

[Poli]

SCHMIDTY ANGRY. SCHMIDTY SMASH!

[Poli]

I kid. Actually, Schmidty nailed this one. I hadn't even thought of that.

OH WAIT!!! I do!! I just don't usually post in green caps, and I generally use conjunctions and refer to myself in the first person.

[st.cronin]

Sorry Schmidty. I'll adopt the convention from here out, and I'm editing my old posts.

[Tyrith]

Gone until 10 CST or so.
