look at your early posts, before your tune changed. that's all i was saying. you came out hot n heavy suggesting this idea of BK-king (even laying out a path to clearing him). Not saying BK wouldn't be a good king mind you. It wasn't till your last 2 posts that your mind changed. And I don't recall the timing on those, but I'm guessing they were once it emerged that there was little support for BK-as-King. And now you're pushing the whole idea of Schmidty being revealed as good saying a ton about whether BK is good or bad. (#919-921) IDK...

Doh -- I was just kidding when I said I explained everything in the letter. And the letter itself was another joke. I'll come out with more info in a little bit.

Dubb: question...
Lord Righteous and the White Knight had PM rights, correct? Am I interpreting the PM rights portion under the "Order of Righteousness" part of the rules correctly?

I'd like to revisit the moving of powers from the Dark One to one of the followers. It appears that didn't happen...yet if it even will. As we only got one letter from Diffama and not two that we would normally get with the Dark One.
It seems this does bode well for the villagers. |

Your right, I guess the part about me saying there is no way I was voting BK king really confused people. Also, justify your statements about me saying Schmidty is good saya a ton about BK, I think a ton is a little strong. And considering right now we have someone who is voting for a guy who escaped prison and someone who is voting for themselves and I haven't even voted I'm not getting your issue. |

maybe a ton was laying it on a bit strong. I just think there's been a lot of focus on BK. Not saying that makes you good or bad or anything, just saying. Tyrith was trying to keep the convo away from BK (or so some have theorized, right?) and you were trying to keep it there somewhat it seemed. Just...interesting is all.

I certainly want to hear more, and have plenty of time to change my vote. I think it seems pretty clear from Tyrith's posts though that he was very happy to have Pass jailed or lynched, so as far as I can see he's the closest to someone cleared we have. Certainly seems better to me than randomly picking someone. I think ti's likely someone with an unlisted role aided Pass in getting out and he's waiting hoping that they will reveal themselves. I kind of doubt that the wolves have *another* ability to release someone from prison since they already have that power, ti would seem a bit lopsided. |

I won't put a vote in for myself at this point, but I'm willing to be King - understanding that it could be a very short shelf-life for me. Anything I can do to help out the village.

All right. Here's what I know:
1. clap/Abe let me out of prison. 2. I was the one who "told" clap to hit up the thread since he was getting votes. Another of his abilities is that he can talk to prisoners. 3. I was waiting to see how Abe played this first -- I saw him in the thread late last night, but haven't seen him this morning, so I figured enough is enough. There's probably more I'm forgetting, so feel free to ask any questions. |

I am thinking the best option for King is Arbitro.
Our BG is gone, and the White Knight is only a sorta half BG. He might be able to do some protecting, but not completely. So it seems likely we'll be electing a new King every other day or so. Right now, I would like the King to be someone fairly clear, to give us another day or two to get more scans in (by King or by seer) and perhaps build more of a COT. Arbitro, whose only purpose was to kill the Dark One, no has no real purpose except for a COT. If someone comes out now as Arbitro, there is plenty of time for the real Arbitro (if the first isn't) to come out at this point, early in the day. then we can make Arbitro our new King with some confidence he is cleared (and if two come out, we'll likely get a wolf one way or another). What does everyone think of that?

unvote passacaglia for king
That explanation certainly hasn't made me feel better about Pass at this point. I'm not quite sure what to make of it but with those two tied together I'm no longer interested in electing Pass. |

That seems like a pretty good plan to me. I was thinking of doing this if votes got on me at some point, but while I'm dropping bombs, I might as well say now that I'm Arbitro. I told clap that I was him, and dubb let me forward that conversation to Abe, so he should know, too. |

Hmm, this actually fits a bit with my "feel" on clap's posts. I can see this being true. I don't know whether to accept this at face value, but we know an unlisted power allowed Pass to be set free. It could just as likely be a villager role that did it as a wolf role. Should be noted, clap left the game about the same time Pass was released. In fact, I think dubb announced it in the same post.

I think it's fucking bonkers. What if the Dark One escaped into another body - we'd still want Arbitro alive in case of that.

I will also steer clear of games with hidden mechanics from now on. It devolves the play into guessing games of "who can do what? Is this role still in play? How do we know?"

Well, that's interesting. I have to go pick up my kid at school. I'll be interested in seeing what's happened when I get back. I must say, if this is an invention, it's a pretty good one. This sounds like a kind of unlisted role I could imagine dubb having in the game, and as i said before I find it unlikely the wolves would have a second power to release people from jail. Having PM rights with prisoners would make sense. I wish Abe had joined and played right after the swtich so we'd know something more. |

So here's another thing. After clap made this post, I asked him where he saw that, about the seer not being able to scan while in jail. He told me it was in the rules, but when I pressed him about it more, he backed off and said that he might have been wrong. I'm not thrilled with looking at Abe based on someone else, but it came off to me like someone else told clap that part of the rules. |

On the other hand, I also told clap that he should claim to be Arbitro if he ended up with a lot of votes, and he didn't do it. So maybe that speaks to his innocence, that he didn't want to lie.

I think I would have liked Pass to wait a while before revealing his role. One so we could discuss CR's plan and two to see if a wolf would have come forward and claimed it.
Unless Pass is a wolf that is. Now that the cat's out of the bag barring a counter reveal I think Pass probably is a decent choice for King, but I'll hold off a while on voting. |

so all we need now is abe to confirm what pass is saying and we have the beginnings of a circle....i say that because i dont think 2 wolves would expose themselves to cover one another this early with the Dark One already dead.

I would have liked to wait a while, too -- but I'd already been feeling too secretive from last night and this morning, and in a complicated game like this, I felt I needed to make with the info. I thought about a wolf revealing, and would have loved it, but I figured the chances were slim -- why would they take that risk, knowing the real Arbitro is out there (especially since no one is in prison who could have been Arbitro)? |

that would be a very powerful game mechanic that really would put the villagers at a disadvantage...unless the role Schmidty had does the same. I don't think that is the case at all in either spot. Plus why go through the motions of putting in a rule in the game the if there is only 1 follower then he can make kills on consecutive nights. I think this isn't happening at all in this game. |

I would suggest anyone who has a counterclaim to Pass's role make that counterreveal very early today. We have a chance at forming a COT or rooting out a wolf right here and someone "revealing" at the last moment would be bad form, I think.
If no one is coming out soon I will be moving back to voting Pass as King I think. It would bump Abe up to a trusted list to my mind also, though it's remotely possible he's still bad. STill, if both are good I have to think about Tyrith's behavior to make any sense of it. |

Well I'm caught up. Sucks to lose Danny, but it seems Pass is emerging as a viable King candidate. If no one counters his Arbitro claim that's probably where I'll go with my king vote.
I still don't know what to make of clap/Abe, though it seems like Pass probably trusts him. |
