So I haven't read Lathum's post yet as I am sitting in a public place at work, but I'm guessing he's not too big of a fan of Blade right now ?

I am having some significant conn problems right now. Took me twenty minutes to bring up this thread. I'll put several thioughts into this one post and hope my connectivity clears up later.
I'm fine with the path order for the EG when there is a critical role revealed. Maybe the EG guarded the soothsayer last night and wanted to do so again last night but couldn't. It was a good guard. The dagger does nothing and isn't a real item? Too bad we can't get hoopsguy to verify that for us, since it was a pm. What do you guys think about that "reveal" or passacaglia's logic as to why he said he had a real item? It seems like everyone has a scarab. I wish I had one too. Some of you are still making the assumption that there was just one Initiate. STOP THAT. If there are five Necromancers, and just three Nec roles, than either there are generic Necros, or multiple roles (ditto for four Necs). Which role is the least broken, least abusive? The Initiate one. Therefore, if there are duplicates, it's likely they are Initiates. Since it also seems we have additional scarabs out there, no one can make any assumptions about any scarabs they possess. -Anxiety

Qwik, out of curiosity, why are you following Blade's lead instead of some of the people who are more likely cleared at this time? I don't have any suspicions of Blade per say, but your actions feel a little more suspicious to me. Blindly following someone's lead is a pretty good way to have a cop out if you end up having bad results... ie: "I trusted blade, and went with his vote, wasn't my fault!" Don't get me wrong, Blade is championing voting for the person who I am leaning towards again today. Im just curious why you picked blade over someone like Path, or Sndvls who there is a much more likely chance of them being good. |

To build a circle of trust, you have to earn a circle of trust... Now you cast me as neutral in your list...so how am I to prove myself, even though I voted for Bek twice...and really it's not much of a deviation because I voted for bullet yesterday...but I have a good feeling that blade is good. Now if he's wrong, then I was wrong...and we're back to square one...so unless I can pull some baddies out of my hat, I have to go with some leads and blade's as good as any, unless someone has a better theory...

considering what lathum did last game, if i were the seer, he would be at the top of my list of people to worry about...its just the fact that he doesnt post as much as others that he doesnt get as much attention, but if you look at the games he has been a power player in, he usually does extremely well. |

With all the board problems I must have missed it: Did someone else also claim to have a scarab?

Ahh. So that's very interesting indeed. Path what are your current plans?
Clearly the idea that there was more than 1 initiate seems to have been well founded. |

Bek and Lathum fall into the quiet category. I mispoke on the word vet, but not my meaning behind the post. If lathum hates me, thats all good. Ive had many people hate me, and it hasnt affected me one bit. Heck, i actually seem to get along with them down the road once we better understand eachother(like with schmidty). My vote is on bullet, i think as of now its the right move. If lathum wants to play and help the team, he can do so. Im happy with where im at and what has transpired to date.

Path said he had one at the start of the game I think. Not one from last night at least. Which is weird considering the only two roles that I know of that could hand those out couldnt until last night. So My guess is path got one to start the game as pharoah |

This is correct. I had one to start the game. When I got the helmet I was told I could only hold one object at a time, so would have to either pass or use the scarab or helmet. I didn't have anyone that I could definitively say was good at that point to pass it off to, and have no idea who the enchanter or whatever he's called is, so I decided to use the scarab. A green light washed over me but there was no apparent effect.

it only makes sense that path had to have his scarab at the start of the game, since last night was the first night anyone would have had to get one from the enchanter or initiate.
qwik, i agree with you that there could be another initiate, but if there is and he made a scarab, why hasnt anyone else come out and said they got one? especially since BK already said he got one....if i got one the day after an initiate got killed, i would assume it was from the enchanter if it was the only one...if another person got one, he should say something so we can try and find a way to figure out which one is cursed. |

What if Cronin /found/ the scarab...what if it wasn't formed by any of us but was just found in-game...that to me seems like a possibility. Also green doesn't seem very evil a color, so I'm guessing it's not cursed. I really think the baddies are still splintered, and one without his dagger, HA-HA! It reeks of desperation... But I do believe there are several out there meant to do harm...

It means what if the person who is the EG is away from the game for one reason or another? Everyone has things that come up in real life. Since I have no idea who the EG is, how am I to know if they're one of the people who is around and paying attention? It's not a reflection on the EG by any means or that I think someone isn't competent enough to make a call -- it's trying to play the game to the best of my ability for the good of the Egyptians. So if you want to question my ability, that's fine -- I question my ability. But don't say that I was questioning anybody elses.

well going off this post and the rules (scarab of protection) I would say path had a cursed scarab. The scarab of protection doesn't let an attacker into your room. so if a seer had looked at path (good or bad) they would have gotten a bad read. |

As for lathum, i honestly have no read on him. Hes not going to be my vote as i havent seen him do anything suspicious yet. For all the trash people talk about me(ironically for talking trash about other people...funny how that works out), i keep my votes about the game. Your my top game suspect, and that reflects in no way on your game. I think, if your bad, you have played a great game. I just have a gut feeling about you, and would like to see it tested.
