I also cannot spell names today.

[Zinto]

If it isn't decided one way or another in the next thirty or so minutes I am going to move off of Mau and onto Schmidty so that there is no tie.

[Autumn]

Hopefully we'll have a few more votes by then.

Agreed. I would rather not vote off brit for what has a possibility of just being a Day 1 overreaction because it's been a comatose day. Meanwhile a ton of people haven't shown up. Sorry to them, but I can't feel bad about voting them out if they can't show up and remove the +3 votes they're getting.

[Zinto]

I agree that we have pretty much given a pass to people missing day one and we probably need to move away from doing that. I am fine with voting out someone who isn't around today even if there is a chance it bites us in the butt today.

BREAKING NEWS

Tension grows between the US and Korania. The Koranian leader has vowed that he will begin destroying one small town at a time until he has completely gutted the country. Then he will take out the large cities that he feels will have already decayed into chaos.

Be forewarned! He has declared.

Hope things pick up, this is not looking promising for the return of WW.

Day 1s are usually slow, but yeah.

A lot of times people convince themselves not to vote for that one person who hasn't shown up on the chance he has an important villager role, but when you've got 3+ people...

[Zinto]

Did DT check in?

[The Jackal]

FWIW I like the rules you put in to encourage posting and discourage post-deadline posting, and if all else fails we can engineer three ties in a row so that you win

[Autumn]

Day one is always bad, espcially after a long break. I'm sure it will get better EF.

I am glad you posted this because I may have not read over the rules so well before now.

[murrayyyyy]

so it's between Schmidty and Mau right now?

[Zinto]

More or less. One of them could show up and make it a runaway on the other though.

[JAG]

Yes, without vote or other comment.

[DaddyTorgo]

Yeah I checked in - then promptly forgot the game was on!

[DaddyTorgo]

I just remembered.

Haha.

[DaddyTorgo]

VOTE SCHMIDTY

[Autumn]

That makes a tie, DT.

[fontisian]

Unvote
Vote mauchow

[fontisian]

Breaking the tie. I choose mau because I've played with him before and thus don't feel as bad about being the deciding vote.

That's fine. I don't mind creating a tie to see if it spurs anything.

[EagleFan]

After a long day of deliberating, you aren't really sure what you are voting for. Nothing has happened that made you want to vote but you did, most of you.

You have voted for mauchow to...

Then you hear the roar of an engine and a sudden flash...

Next thing you see are bold colors, people wearing swatches, mullets, hairbands.... what happened?

You have been teleported back to the 1980's. How and why?

What does that mean? All you see is something that say Day -3. What does that mean?

All will be a little more clear very soon...

[EagleFan]

I have a couple PM's to process and then will update with another post that will make things a little more clear.

[EagleFan]

Still no talking...

[GoldenEagle]

We are still waiting on your post that will make things more clear

[EagleFan]

You have no idea what happened, you were about to announce your decision but have been shifted back in time. Welcome to Day -3... that whole day 1 vote hasn't even occurred yet.

You have entered a bizarre world where hair is big and the music rocks, for the most part. An actor is president and terrorists are starting to hate us.

There is one major event that unfolds in front of you. You see a man, who looks like BarKeep, lying motionless on the ground with a knife in his back and a note attached. It says...

ONE DAY YOU WILL KNOW MY NAME AND FEAR ME!!!!

There is a killer among you.

"Not in MY TOWN!!! I will destroy all you losers to save my town!!!"

Okay, there is also a psycho among you.... isn't that just great...


Day -3 Has BEGUN!!! You will be lynching someone tomorrow night, or Biff will kick you *ss he says.

[EagleFan]

The day has begun, feel free to post.

[fontisian]

That really didn't make things more clear.

Does this mean the day 1 vote never happened, or that it will happen in three days?

If the second case is correct, what would happen if we lynched mau today?

[JAG]

Then we alter the future. The future probably won't come to pass exactly as it was since there's a good chance people will be dead by then anyway.

You'll find out when 'today' gets here.

There will be two more posts with updates to rules/roles section tonight to clear up a little more. I am hoping this will be a fluid game with a werewolf tone.

[JAG]

The flavor looks like multiple kills per night might happen. There's a killer among us listed first and then there's the Biff talk about destroying us all to save his town.

[The Jackal]

I wonder if George has a lover mechanism with Marty in the past

[The Jackal]

Headed to sleep soon, hopefully we have a more talkative day tomorrow and the folks that forgot to check-in show up. I'm going to a show tomorrow night and will probably be out of touch for most of the evening. Will definitely try to check in before 10 as long as it's over by then (starts at 7:30).

[The Jackal]

The only problem with no kill on the first day is that the second day can devolve into a sort of repeat without a revealed person and the accompanying vote history to go with it

[EagleFan]

Update:

Have updated Marty's information in the rules and Doc's. At this time...

Marty can scan for Biff's Bullies.
Doc can protect.
