You could just play blind.

Sounds like a typical wolf move to redirect suspicion to someone else.

Vote Barkeep

I'll send them out sometime over the weekend - probably tomorrow during the day. I'll bump the thread at that time, change the thread title ... usual stuff.

Ok, been pretty busy, but I wanted clarification on the Soothsayer role, because I think I was (somewhat unfairly) screwed by this role in a previous game. Will the Soothsayer be able to test the validity of one of their own statements? Because last time, the "soothsayer" tested a statement of their own to the effect of "Vince is a wolf," and even though I had been quite careful not to say anything that would reveal me, I was toast. I'm thinking an addendum to the role to the effect of the soothsayer finds out whether or not the person who made the statement is sure of the veracity of the statement.

Ok, that was confusing...basically, I'm trying to avoid a situation where someone who has tactically avoided saying something that would incriminate themselves would get screwed by someone else (who has no knowledge of it whatsoever to begin with) saying "Oh, XXX is a necromancer" just so the Soothsayer can test that statement, when neither of them knows it is true to begin with.

From my perspective, the use of the soothsayer role in that manner is 'cutting corners' so to speak.

[hoopsguy]

Soothsayer - I'm planning on having them react to statements of others, rather than their own statements. I'm planning on avoiding reading statements of "I am a villager" or "I am a wolf" but allowing them flexibility to read other statements beyond these. I think there is plenty of opportunity for this role to have value beyond these restrictions and hope that the game bears this out - assuming that this role is in fact active in the game.

I am NOT a republican.

tom brady is not as good as joe montana

EDIT: Didn't want anyone to confuse this post which was a joking pregame vote for Blade as actual gameplay.

I am willing to reveal right now and admit I am the soothsayer and that this is a true statement.

[hoopsguy]

Roles are being sent out now. We will be starting with Day 1, beginning from the time you receive your role until Monday night.

[Blade6119]

Egyption checking in, lets do this boys

[Blade6119]

Egyptian*, sorry for my bad spelling there

[bulletsponge]

bad spelling is a Necromancer trait right?

[SnDvls]

Egyptian checking in...see you all Monday

[hoopsguy]

Egypt has been rocked by savage thunderstorms for the last week - weather that is altogether unexpected and unprecedented in this land. Murmurs of the gods displeasure have steadily increased and last night the palace of Pharoah Path12 was attacked!

Path12's vizier, Hoopsguy, is now speaking to the Egyptian people about the circumstances of the following evening.

"A tremendous lightning bolt struck the grounds last night, momentarily blinding all who witnessed this event. The ground was charred for thirty feet in every direction from the point of impact. In the middle of this desolation stood a golden statue of the great Osiris, appearing out of nothingness. And the statue delivered a message about a poisoning of the land by evil necromancers. These necromancers are disrupting the natural passage from life to death, spreading unnatural disease and reanimating the bodies of those who have moved on to the promised afterlife.

Their numbers are already strong, to the point where there is now a war in our land. This enemy seeks to destroy our civilization. These foul magicians are living among us, hidden from our sight. It is the duty of every man, woman, and child among us to help bring these abominations to light and to ensure the quick eradication of their numbers.

Tonight, and every night at sunset, we must meet in front of the statue and deliver a necromancer to Osiris. This will continue until we have rid our lands of all practitioners of the black arts."

[Barkeep49]

Ok. I am officially a good guy. Not a bad guy. A good guy. 100% good. I hate the necromancers. A whole lot. So don't be thinking I am one. Because I hate them. Hate them do I.

[Barkeep49]

So I see no reason why the Ruling Class shouldn't reveal themselves.

Well id imagine they, being able to become the pharoh, are potentially powerful roles. Is the pharoh not a big deal?

[Barkeep49]

The pharoh is a big deal. But we know it's path. If we ever want to vote path out, for whatever reason, we need the ruling class to do it. As the ruling class can be either good or bad, and are replaceable, it would be kind of nice to know who we're dealing with there.

[Coffee Warlord]

Checking in.

[dubb93]

OK, all pre-game joking aside I'm ready to play another game of werewolf.

See, but if one of the ruling class is bad, or two, or three, and we kill path who im assuming starts good(may be wrong), we could have a bad pharoh who can dictcate who the bodyguard guards each night...thats disaster

[Vince]

And here I was hoping to have some sort of special role. I'm just walking like an Egyptian here, guys.

But why would we kill path? But then again perhaps we will at some point want to kill path. Since the ruling class can be good or bad I see no reason for them not to come out and admit it. At least that way we know where we stand.

Well played, sir.

[st.cronin]

I am an Egyptian, and really don't have a grasp on the rules of this game yet. I'm studying them now.

And Tom Brady is a damn good qb.

Lies are the work of necromancers, and this is the biggest lie EVER

VOTE CRONING

[st.cronin]

Ok here is the first thing I don't understand: Why would anybody vote to lynch the Pharoah?

[Blade6119]

gah, i cant spell today

VOTE CRONIN

[Blade6119]

im heading to work. Obviously my vote on cronin i a joke and im sure ill move it sometime before the deadline monday. We have 3 days, which in the past has meant were are going to be very bored this weekend...lol, have a good day guys

[Barkeep49]

I agree with this guy.

[Barkeep49]

That's the thing. On first glance it doesn't seem like there is a whole lot of a reason. But with hoops' and his penchant for twists, I would have to think that he would not devise an elaborate mechanism, not to mention almost 100% known good guy, unless there was something else going on.

[Swaggs]

I am on the road until tomorrow (Sun) evening, but I saw in my email that the game started and just wanted to check in.

I will read over and vote tomorrow.

[Tyrith]

Hey, maybe this will be the game that I stop trying to kill path!

[kingfc22]

Egyptian checking in.

[Alan T]

Egyptian here. I'll be gone most of the day tommorrow for fathersday. back in the swing on monday though

I don't see where in the rules it says that a member of the ruling class can become the pharoah. Also, the ruling class is a neutral role (members of it can be Egyptian or necromancer), so I don't see it shedding much light on things. Anyway, I'm with Barkeep -- I don't see why they would want to hang the pharoah, but you never know. I guess, for all we know, the ruling class could have three necromancers, but I don't know how they would convince us to hang path12.
